Volume 1, Chapter 68: Didn't See the Man's Face Clearly

Shen Shuhe took the elevator down to the garage and patted her pockets, surprised to find that both her keys and phone were still there.

Taking out her phone, she saw that Wen Yu had called her more than a dozen times.

Just as she was about to call back, Wen Yu's call came in again, and she hurriedly answered.

"Very well." This time, Bai Qingluo readily agreed. Since his identity made it inappropriate for him to show his face in public, he tapped his toes and vanished into the street with a flash.

Since this place harbored rare treasures like gemstones, it also meant that other fine items would likely appear.

Ping'er flipped over the teacup on the table, poured a cup of tea for Yu Yuan, and then retreated behind Qin Qianjue, standing in silence.

"Do not resist. I am going to place my unique restriction upon you." Ma Qingfeng flicked his fingers, sending wisps of heaven and earth spiritual energy drilling into several of the old man's acupoints.

Inside Yan Xiaoyu's military tent in the Ninghua encampment, two men stood upright. One of them was Xiahou Huan, while the other was Black Yi, the leader of the secret guards personally trained by Yan Xiaoyu.

The combatants on the city wall were not the least bit anxious about the zombies rushing toward the base of the wall. Destitute of any auxiliary tools, even upon reaching the wall, the zombies could pose no threat whatsoever to the defenders above; instead, they simply became sitting ducks.

Ling Yuwei felt a trace of surprise. Judging from Nangong Jiner's words, Nangong Ye seemed to have done something to hurt her.

Seeing Ma Qingfeng's tottering state, the wolf king lost all interest in toying with him and wanted to end the battle immediately. The wolf king lunged at Ma Qingfeng, intent on tearing out his throat this time.

"Did you smear honey on your lips today? You're being so sweet tonight. Is there something on your mind? If so, just spit it out! Stop beating around the bush," Yingzi said with a chuckle.

High in the sky, Shen Buru and Modun stood side by side. Behind them were over a hundred cultivators whose cultivation had reached the Core Formation stage or higher, with the two leaders having attained the late Void Refinement stage. Unlike the cavalry on the ground who were charging toward the Eastern Hu, they stood motionless as if waiting for something.

Yet just as he raised his fist, a streak of black light tore through the heavens and flashed past instantaneously. The clothes across Guan Zhengyao's chest were already sliced open, and a pitch-black dagger had pierced half an inch into his heart.

Because ever since her marriage, Li Gongfu—who had been missing for five days—brought along an elderly woman with a bun hairstyle, rallied a group of brothers carrying chickens and sheep on carrying poles, and marched straight toward Xu Jiaojong.

Lu Shaoxi relaxed his left hand, and dozens of gleaming yellow bullet casings dropped onto the floor with a series of crisp clinks.

They had arrived more than a month earlier than Mengqi for the purpose of preparing the children for kindergarten and cleaning the house in anticipation of their move-in.

Over the past few days, Yingchun, Sun Shaozu, the Second Master, and the Second Mistress frequently visited Old Madam Sun's chambers. Even Sun Huiying, who was already married off, returned a few times along with her newlywed husband, Han Ze. Although Old Madam Sun's condition had improved somewhat, her spirits remained weary and listless.

Shen Mohan wanted to refuse, but upon seeing Yi Na's slightly narrowed peach-blossom eyes—which carried an arrogant determination and a profound self-confidence revealed through her serene expression—he hesitated.

"Grandfather!" Deng Ziyu and Deng Han cried out in anxious alarm, rushing over to his side.

A few minutes later, the one-star gym master certificate, stamped with an official steel seal, was handed over to Lu Shaoxi. They did not audit any of his documents whatsoever, nor did they even dare to ask him to return his old half-star gym master certificate.

"You've probably already guessed it, hehe. That's right, it's just as you imagine!" A cryptic smile played on the corners of Alage's mouth as he said indifferently.

Lu Shaoxi had initially not paid much attention to this ancient ruin, believing that with his system's various supernatural abilities and his knowledge as a Tier 5 formation master, he could easily enter it. Only now did he realize how naive he had been.
