Chapter 68: Happiness Descends Unexpectedly

Jiang Jingzhu personally directed the operation, while several veteran comrades assisted in monitoring every single step of the installation and connection. The porters handled the precise positioning for security, operating much like a precision instrument. Following every command, each phase was executed with absolute accuracy.
All the components were assembled one by one, until the entire phased array radar finally took shape. The whole structure resembled a small house, with its outermost section featuring two antenna array panels that looked remarkably like the compound eyes of an insect.
This was precisely the most crucial part of the active phased array radar.
Yun Feng furrowed his brow. What a formidable head of the Gong family; he truly was a crafty old fox. Raising conditions at a time like this showed meticulous scheming, but asking for a whole year of service was simply an excessively exorbitant demand!
"Investigate her. Why not investigate me? Perhaps the one who was wrong is me." Zhan Qingyi offered a mocking laugh, though her eyes held a profound sorrow. Even after more than a decade of separation, Qin Yaxing was still her mother, after all. Her feelings toward her were not purely fueled by hatred.
However, tranquility could not last forever. Suddenly, the roar of a divine beast outside the grand hall was abruptly cut short. A heavily wounded figure seemed to materialize out of the void right upon the beast, rushing straight toward the hall. Seeing this, the hearts of the divine monarchs and various deities sank simultaneously, a dark foreboding washing over them.
Yet, unlike the Divine Lord, the Demon Emperor's words were laden with boundless dominance, commanding absolute obedience and leaving no room for defiance, nor even the courage to resist. Consequently, the realms of gods and demons were thrown into complete chaos. The deities from both realms, who had originally attended to their respective duties, were summoned by the voices of the Divine Lord and the Demon Emperor, and rushed straight toward the divine-demon battlefield. At this moment, the war was on the verge of erupting fully.
"Call the detention center immediately to release Hu Xixi, and issue a public statement in the newspaper to clear her name. You can no longer protect your wife; we must give both Hu Xixi and the public an explanation. In broad daylight, for such an incident to occur—no wonder people have lost confidence in us and are preparing for a mass withdrawal," the mayor said angrily.
After resting for a day, the vanguard troops of the Young Marshal's army clashed with Lin Shihong's forces once again. Yet, no matter how fierce their charge, they could no longer shake Lin Shihong's defensive line.
In fact, during the two-plus years of marriage between Su Lingfeng and Mo Wenthen, they had always practiced contraception whenever they were together. Even on occasions when passion ran high and they momentarily forgot to take precautions beforehand, Su Lingfeng would take medicine afterward.
Fang Ze nodded and said nothing more. Liufeng immediately retreated and sat down to the side. He had already obtained what he wanted, and now it was time to sit back and watch the show.
"Of course I'm just going in to take a look." Situ Leiyan glanced at the pristine door frame, casting a disdainful gaze at the servant. "Surely you don't expect me to stay here with the rest of you tonight..." Although it sounded like a joke, there was not the slightest hint of humor in his tone.
Riddled with confusion, Zhuo Bufan immediately mounted the steed brought over by his personal guard, riding eastward alongside Bai Bing. His guards had already hastily rearranged their formation and followed closely behind.
Finally, the arrangements were complete. Situ Leiyan turned his gaze back to Xiao Xixi, who was staring at him. Only then did the corners of his mouth curve upward slightly, revealing a rare smile: "Haven't eaten this in a long time, have you?" A long, long time ago, he could only rack his brains trying to recall what dishes were actually served during that hot pot meal he had taken her to.
Wei Fei let out a cry of agony, threw away his magic staff, and tightly covered his ears with both hands. His body twisted in torment, as if thousands of arrows were piercing his heart, tearing him apart from within.
Wei Luo sensed that Lord Yixin, seated right in front of her, suddenly tensed his body! A bone-chilling coldness and a murderous aura emanated from him.
This is terrible. Could it be that I have to resort to drugging them to shake these people off? But what kind of mixture should I prepare, and how should it be administered so that so many people would pass out simultaneously? More critically, how on earth aming to procure the ingredients? Zhen Zimo frowned and pondered while skillfully sorting through the medicinal dregs.
Aishi opened his mouth as if to say something more, but was pulled back by the Duke of Rongtai nearby. The three of them retreated together.
