Chapter 46: Offending the Bigshot
The tractor chugged all the way to the commune and came to a stop in front of the supply and marketing cooperative.
No one dared to speak to Jiang Xingye, nor did he have any intention of speaking to anyone. Once the passengers had all disembarked, he drove the tractor away.
Xu Qinghuan gazed wistfully after the departing tractor, unable to withdraw her eyes for a long time.
Yu Xiaomin was deeply worried. "Qinghuan, you should stay away from that man in the future. Anyone can tell he's fierce."
Xu Qinghuan murmured a soft agreement.
"You can get lost now, too." My tone remained completely flat. In this kind of weather, he certainly wouldn't step outside again.
Gu Jichi opened his mouth, wanting to continue speaking to her, but not knowing what to say. With a self-doubting expression, he scratched his head, feeling a persistent sense that he had somehow offended Ling Tong.
After a brief thought, Ye Feng hurried upstairs, opened his laptop in his bedroom, and logged into the Qidian backend.
If Ji Jinglue wanted to survive, there was probably only one way left: like Zuo Xiulan of the Tianxin Sect, he would have to seal himself inside a closed room made of azure rock and completely cut himself off from the world from then on. Yet even so, it would merely delay the moment when his flesh, blood, and true essence were completely exhausted, while the pain would accompany him forever.
The deaths of Isaac and Alsace granted Ye Chen twenty additional mutation points. As for the remaining several tier-five holy warriors, they were absorbed by the mainland as usual; if they had also been converted into mutation points, it would have been quite a substantial figure.
"Jiang Chen, you must not act rashly. Tabron's cultivation has already reached the peak of the Void-Piercing realm, and his strength is simply not something that Blood Demon Nangong Yu can compare to," Qin Huaijiang hastily advised.
Xing Shuang glared at her son. "That's why you men—whether as brothers or fathers—are all so annoying. You interfere far too strictly when people want to fall in love. Precisely because she is my own flesh and blood, I refuse to meddle in this matter."
While he was still letting his imagination run wild, things over there had already concluded. Consubine Qi flew out from the water, glowing all over. The radiance flashed and vanished instantly, and the clothes on her body were completely dry.
In the eyes of many, this was a luxurious mansion, but if Ye Feng looked closely, he could see that it was actually a desolate pauper's graveyard.
Do not be fooled by how formidable this holy sword looked, with fluctuations radiating from it that were no weaker than Durendal's; just as Xiaoming had evaluated it, it was entirely all show and no substance.
Huang Jun knew that Shu Yao was referring to whether he had any need to get involved in this matter, so he said, "You know that my curiosity has always been very strong." Having said that, he smiled, but said nothing more.
Putting away the remaining Nen energy on his fist and glancing at a recovering sword scar across his knuckles, Xiaoming clapped his hands together, quite satisfied with his own cleverness.
A moment later, Liu Liu looked at himself in bewilderment—huh, how strange. What had happened to him just now?
Huang Jun said, "First, check the local gazetteers to see if anything similar has ever happened here before. Second, conduct a comprehensive scientific survey of the surrounding terrain. Third, monitor the dynamics of the village at all times to see if there are any new developments."
Only he climbed up without the slightest hesitation, yet where should he place his legs, and where was the best place to brace his hands?! After hesitating for a long time, he adopted a strange posture, half-crawling and half-kneeling to drape his body over Su Rong, his wide, round eyes shining brightly and foolishly licking the corner of his mouth.
"With so many people here, how many can the two of you siblings withstand with just your strength?" At that moment, Duan Zhengyun and Tian Ao were seen strolling out, their icy aura directly enveloping the Dongjue siblings.
The Whitebeard Pirates possessed many powerhouses, but the only one capable of flight was Marco, and Marco's ability could not carry very many people through the air.
As time passed, discussions surrounding this incident did not subside; instead, they intensified. Marines returning from missions, upon hearing the news, continually joined the debate.
Marshal Sengoku realized it really was so. Ever since Qianjie's appearance while in the Navy, countless major events had occurred, and the clashes between the Marines and Kaido of the Beasts were almost entirely his masterpieces.
