Volume 1 Chapter 28: Opening of the Commercial Street

Feng Chen reopened the safe, took out the list, and sat at the desk to consider it carefully.

This person had come to Chu not to display the majesty of the Son of Heaven, but instead to curry favor with the state of Chu. There had to be some treachery behind it.

Zoe was a complete opportunist. While Planck was still alive, he had never taken a clear position because he did not want to live under the shadow of the Pirate King.

Finland and Karelia had problems as well. In truth, the problem with those two lands lay with the dragons above them. Unless the dragons were dealt with, even if seeds were sown in the soil, their breath would reduce everything to ashes, while the farmers would be slaughtered to the last man.

However, none of this mattered anymore—not what things had once been like, nor which points the “international conventions” addressed.

“Not very high, probably a little over two hundred meters. I’m sure there are enemy sentries posted up there,” Watermelon said.

Watermelon’s reconnaissance battalion was absent, so San Mao’s guard battalion had become the reconnaissance force instead. San Mao was clever and brave, far better than Wild Ox, which put Chen Fei completely at ease.

“Team Leader Feng, there are many unfamiliar laborers on the dock,” Chen Mo reported as soon as he entered.

At once, Feng Ling’s eyes flickered. He licked his lips, and his figure vanished strangely once more. The sight left Gu Jie, who had just turned away in secret regret at failing to crush Feng Ling to death with a single blow, both shocked and furious.

Qin Momo had not yet had time to respond when a new trending topic appeared: Luo Xingchen had entered a competition in the country where he was studying abroad and had even won a prize. Apparently, the competition carried considerable prestige.

“Mom, I really don’t want to go to Australia. I’m living very well in China, and I don’t want to leave Zhou Xian either,” Yi Fei said earnestly.

“All right, Auntie,” Yi Fei replied with a bright smile as she walked over and took Zhang Xian’s hand. Then the two of them left.

A cloud of purple mist suddenly appeared from thin air between heaven and earth. It blotted out the sky and covered several miles in every direction, transforming into a great alchemy furnace.

Seeing that he had dragged her into the matter and blocked her from every direction, Lü Qing had no choice but to seek another angle. “You’re certainly a devoted protector of the flowers—so thorough that not even air can pass through. Aren’t you afraid someone might get jealous?” After saying this, she gave a cold laugh and turned away.

A cool breeze swept past, and the sacred temple was already close at hand. The man immediately stopped indulging in wild thoughts and charged forward at full speed. Yet at that very moment, a vague white figure suddenly flickered into view on the road ahead.

As long as this child existed, he would have a reliable advantage in the upcoming bidding, and no one would compete with him for the parcel of land he wanted so badly.

Ye Xuan emerged from the stone chamber rubbing his ears, his face dark and gloomy. His deep voice echoed through the lowest level of the Lingwu Mysterious Chamber.

During an interview, Qin Momo had said this very seriously. She seemed quite different from the owners of other entertainment companies.

“What else could I do?” Su Ze said. “The child is innocent. I couldn’t let him grow up without a father.” At that, his voice caught in his throat.

Lang Fei strolled amid the laughter and merriment, feeling his mind settle and grow calm within the cheerful atmosphere.

Everyone hurried out of their tents, only to discover that hundreds of enormous spiders had surrounded them. Their dark mass filled the area, creating a terrifying sight. Fang Qin tightly clutched Song Xingchen’s arm and pouted.

Just as Leng Yi thought that angering the Snow-Winged Eagle would cause it to pursue him relentlessly, the Snow-Winged Eagle suddenly wheeled around, its two sharp talons lunging straight at Xie Qing.

Luo Ying cried out in delight, “This sister really is a good person!” Then she threw an exasperated glance at Zhang Yan and Yang Feng, who had remained silent the entire time.

This had already gotten off to a fine start. Regardless of whether the Dragon Clan sent anyone to help, dealing with the Lin family was something Wang Hao had to do.

Lin Feng followed Liu Chao’s pointing finger and saw that, not far away, numerous bubbles were indeed rising from beneath the ground. There were no fish anywhere nearby, and two fish demons stood guard at the spring. Liu Chao walked close to the spring and waved his right hand. The water before him opened like a door, leaving Lin Feng astonished.

The agency’s primary tasks remained promoting purchasing services, motorhome resources, motorhome transaction insurance, and fund sales. At present, purchasing-service promotion and motorhome resources consumed the most manpower. As business at the matchmaking company increased, motorhome transactions had also become more demanding.

Qin Yanran’s expression changed. She could not imagine how she should respond to Lin Zhengfeng.

But at that moment, several members of the Sacred Flame Sect suddenly produced pieces resembling blazing flames and rapidly tossed them around the fiend.

Gu Qingyi had not yet finished speaking when Chu Wushuang pulled an entire bucket of water to the well with his bare hands. Without saying a word, he set it on the ground.

This place was ultimately too unsafe. Besides, he would be spending all his time at the Lu family headquarters from then on and would no longer be able to pick Qin Miaoyu up from work and take her home as before. He had to find a way to move her somewhere safer.

After using the restroom, Deng Huanhuan was just about to leave the stall when she heard two familiar voices discussing matters concerning the studio.

Such achievements were more than enough to secure the position of Grand Chancellor for his son. That way, even if his father passed away, the Ye family could remain prosperous for at least another twenty years.

Nian Sui Sui truly saw eye to eye with Shao Chunhua on nothing. For the sake of her own safety, she did not want to force herself to live with Shao Chunhua either.

Sun Jingrou gave a disdainful laugh, convinced that he was deliberately playing dumb in an attempt to muddle through.

Wei Shao handed the dagger to Pei Ying. Pei Ying removed its sheath and immersed the gleaming blade in the prepared poison.

Ji Chunlian let out a scornful laugh. Without even sparing the two members of the Lu family a glance, she went straight to the guesthouse to look for Huo Nanyu.

The dead soldier had been bound like a pig awaiting slaughter during the New Year celebrations, his hands and feet tied to the ends of a thick wooden pole. Two soldiers, one in front and one behind, carried him into the hall and laid him down upright on the floor. His mouth was stuffed completely full.

Thus, Liu Ruyun, who had only just endured the agony of losing her son, naturally became Qin Xu’s wet nurse.

“Haha! Since when did my little sister start spending weekends away from home? She made me, her big brother, come inspect the place so late that I won’t be heading back until the middle of the night!” Xia Taiheng said with a hearty laugh, affectionately stroking Xia Zhifan’s hair as he spoke.

Yao Xia herself was already thirty-five years old, which placed her in the prime of her career as a Battle Soul–ranked pilot.

Of course, this perceptive ability was not particularly strong among ordinary martial artists. For people like them, who practiced ancient martial arts, however, it was entirely different. She could clearly sense the relative levels of her companions’ cultivation. This was also an instinctive form of self-protection that naturally developed in practitioners of ancient martial arts.
