“Chirp!”
After the last bird finished eating, the little creature called out again.
This time, however, its voice carried a hint of impatience.
Upon hearing this, the flock began to take flight, circling in the air, reluctant to leave.
“Chirp!”
It was unclear what the birds were saying, but the little one grew angry. It flew upward, opened its beak, and breathed out a stream of golden-red flames.
The moment the flames appeared, the surrounding temperature soared rapidly.
Zhang Dong had been diligently practicing loading and firing the Lumi Gun, and his efforts had paid off—he could now hit a humanoid target with eight or nine shots out of ten from fifty paces.
The audience presenting gifts came on stage, enthusiastically offering flowers, wine, and cigarettes, leaving the three stunned and speechless for five whole minutes.
Just moments ago, Lü Bu had slipped off the bridge, but thanks to her agility, she managed to grasp the bridge’s edge with both hands, then used her arms to flip herself back onto the bridge.

Upon entering the hall, they realized the host’s birthday banquet was remarkably grand—truly a high-society gathering.
It seemed they were to be kept there for several days, but Lin Anran’s concern was with the state of Tianyin City.
However, seeing how deeply Su Qingluo cared for Lu Hengzhi, and knowing she was carrying his child, there had to be a way to ease the tension between them.
