Chapter 53 Are You Guys Being Polite?

"Then bring Duo-duo out to me, and go wash your face."

Su Qiuxin knew very well that her daughter nowadays disliked others wandering into her room at will.

Therefore, she simply stood by the doorway and waited.

Seeing Su Qiuxin's anxious and worried expression yet steadfast refusal to step into the room, Hua Ning's still-drowsy brain let out a sluggish "Ah."

Only then did she suddenly recall the instructions she had previously given her.

Hua Ning offered an awkward, sheepish smile and turned around to fetch Duo-duo.

"Well, since that is the case, why don't we make a wager! On the eve of opening the furnace, if the price at which this Marquess sells these houses is enough to pay off your families' promissory notes, I won't ask for much—just grant my Cloud Realm Mansion a full interest-free exemption from all your clans! How about that?" Lu Yu asked with a smiling expression.

Production was of the utmost importance. With Wu Xiao's afternoon shift about to begin, she immediately took Bai Suzhen and rushed over to the winery.

"Lieyang, rest assured! Once you leave, I will step up the efforts to restore those cities!" Zhang Zhizhong said earnestly.

Moreover, that goatee-wearing man actually dared to sit in the sunlight in broad daylight, which showed that he was by no means an ordinary ghost. It was quite possible that he had deliberately boarded that train, and perhaps he had purposely stayed by my side with the sole purpose of obtaining my fresh blood.

I shook my head and said that I had no idea either. This fellow always managed to appear at the most critical moments to keep me from dying. As for whether he truly was the God King, I honestly had no idea, seeing as the genuine God King had been sealed away all those years ago.

Although Zuo Yining had offered the excuse that she disliked the bustling fireworks atmosphere atop Greeting True Peak, just past midnight, she was still dragged back by the furious Head of Greeting True Peak, Zuo Xingshan. Watching with a smile as Zuo Yining acted like a spoiled child before Zuo Xingshan, Lu Yu could deeply understand what it felt like to have family in this world.

I nodded, and then dripped my fresh blood onto that person's head. Immediately, hair began to sprout from his scalp, and the facial features on his face emerged. The moment his features materialized, I was so shocked that my mind went blank.

"Knock, knock, knock—" Suddenly, someone knocked on the door. Guo Shaoyang stared fixedly at the ceiling, too lazy to pay any attention.

Seeing his seamless series of fluid movements, coupled with his handsome appearance and elegant, noble temperament, Shen Qianmo found it quite pleasing to the eye.

Although he possessed strength comparable to a Heavenly Master, no matter what, he was still only at the ninth level of Heavenly Qi. Given his current strength, challenging three Heavenly Masters was far too difficult, and he simply did not possess the capability yet.

Yet, he would often quietly gaze in a daze at her pretty face. Even though scorching flames leaped within his eyes, his sharply-defined lips remained stubbornly pressed shut, stingily withholding those two simple words.

Immediately afterward, the man looked at Haonan, who had already turned into a crystal of ice, and a smile crept up the corner of his mouth.

Mei'er gave a subtle smile and flicked her sleeves. A graceful shade of elegant cyan traced a beautiful arc through the sunset, a shade of green that left her marveling.

"Just let him go like this?" Modo watched Xiong Shi depart, a seemingly cute yet bizarrely eerie trace of a smile playing across his chubby face.

Killing low-tier magical beasts to seize their magic crystals was merely a matter of the blink of an eye for Toniro. Besides, the magic crystals produced by the beasts here were all of superior quality, and Toniro certainly didn't mind slaying a few more.

What a terrifying status an alchemist held, and what an immensely terrifying position they occupied on this continent—especially their elusive, dragon-like movements, which truly filled one with a sense of mystery.

Lin Chong did not finish his sentence, but Lin Xiu still understood what he wanted to say. It wasn't that they feared the Tiger Head Mercenary Corps, but rather that if something were to happen over at his place, being shorthanded would put them in a somewhat passive position.

"As for the capital increase, Dad, you can just keep postponing it. Once you see my sincerity, you will naturally believe that I will help you get back all of that twenty percent share," Luo Chenyang said.
