Volume One, Chapter 36: Second Young Master, Please Hurry and Go See the Second Young Madam!

One day, while I was going through a growth spurt, my stomach began to growl long before mealtime. I slipped out to the street to grab a steamed bun, only to be beaten within an inch of my life. It was through this ordeal that I finally learned of the existence of something called money.

To put it shamelessly, I am currently living as a parasite back in my hometown, balancing somewhere between a low-wage worker and someone living off their parents.

Whether they are angels, demons, or even the gluttonous Taotie, I find myself at a distinct disadvantage when facing any of them.

However, she knew clearly that she was in no position to shake this towering tree right now; a failed strike would only make the Tang family’s situation even more precarious.

His body exploded, blasting Wang Qiang dozens of meters away. Caught in the center of the blast’s aftermath, Wang Qiang was instantly left severely injured.

"Let’s have another round—bottoms up!" Bayar seemed to have found someone who truly understood him; as he drank, he forgot all the things he had said before.

"How about this: we head to Pingshan County, set up camp there, and develop slowly. It’s the only way we can proceed for now!" Wang Qiang suggested.

His pudgy body was flung against the corner of the wall like a dead dog.

Afterward, he was bestowed with much gold and silver, and many ministers stepped forward to offer their polite congratulations. It was quite a while before Zhou Lingqing was allowed to return to his residence to wash up and change his clothes.

One of them reached out and hooked her arm through the other’s, and together they strode forward, heads held high and chests puffed out, quickly catching up.

The original meaning of the character "Yu" refers to the eaves of a house, but it also denotes boundaries, space, or even a person's demeanor and bearing.

Obito, who had always assumed his entries and exits from Konoha were completely unnoticed, never expected that he would leave a trail of evidence here.

According to modern technology, once everything had settled and the original owner’s parents returned home, they discovered the child had been switched at birth and immediately mobilized significant resources to track the original owner down.

"It is not many, only one thousand," Emperor Longsheng said, his expression finally softening upon hearing the number.

Zhou Yan’s face was now gloomy, lacking any trace of the high-spirited, ambitious youth from the noble family he once was.

In that moment, during the follow-up examination, the doctor had told her that if she chose to terminate this pregnancy, it was highly likely she would never be able to conceive again in the future.

The moment the door opened, An Yueming’s familiar face came into view. Surprisingly, this was during work hours; he should have been in his own office, which was fully equipped—there was no reason for him to go out of his way to use a public restroom.

On the other hand, it was because his heart had already been claimed; he had fallen for Shen Lingshan from Class Seven of his grade.

Xu Ping’s words left everyone speechless. Isn’t it a good thing that the gates haven't been breached and the walls still stand? Did they really want the city to fall?

"Alright." Gu Ziyue nodded hurriedly, gave Chen Xiaoran a "rest assured" smile, and then turned to leave.

Therefore, Xiang Gangtian did not hesitate; he raised his right hand and struck out with a palm. As he acted, the breathing technique that secretly harmonized with the Nine Treasures Divine Tree was applied naturally.

Stunned for a long while, the Demon Shadow wept as well; the excitement within could not be expressed in words.

Seeing that handsome face, Hong Jing felt a chill rise from the soles of his feet and surge into his cerebral cortex.

Currently, most—or perhaps all—of the guilds in "Peak" have not mastered shipbuilding technology. This means warships must be purchased, and no matter how rich a guild is, they cannot keep buying them forever.

But seeing that I still didn't understand, Sister Juan wiped my chest with a towel soaked in hot water and explained.

This is the Tianxu Sect, after all. If I were to be branded with the crime of disregarding their sect rules, I would be in the wrong even if I had a valid point. No, I must find a way to provoke them into attacking first.

The quasi-emperor ranked first on the Samsara List rolled his eyes. "Why don't you compare me to an Immortal King while you're at it?"

"I see, I understand now. So, what exactly does this 'additional two million in monthly spendable funds' mean?" Xu Hao was very curious about this concept that had only emerged a short while ago.

As he was walking toward the courtyard gate, ready to leave, Chen Xiaoran was stopped by a voice from behind.

Physics Professor Meng Taizhou said, "At least we are the ones in charge. We can do whatever we want. What right do those clueless idiots have to suppress us at every turn? They say we can't do this, we can't do that."

In these times, let alone five catties of fine grain or ten yuan, even a single dime or a tiny amount of fine grain was precious. Why should it fall to their share?

"Not yet. The outcome has not been decided. Yun Yiren, the showdown between you and me has only just begun." As long as she was in the company, their rivalry would never end.

Jian Ning: I’m doing the right thing by latching onto someone powerful, right? She had never clung to anyone before and wasn't sure if her technique was correct.

Kunpeng let out a loud shout, and two long streaks of white mist flew from his nostrils. In the hazy air, a wild wind whipped up, stirring countless soul-capturing black banners. As they snapped and fluttered, they spewed forth endless black mist, and the sound of wailing and weeping descended like a demonic realm, piercing the eardrums.

"How is this possible? Why would the boss go to a faraway place for no reason?" Yi An cried out in shock.

"Pfft—" Jiang Hao was drinking tea to calm his nerves and watch the show, but when he heard this come straight from Zhang Cuihua’s mouth, he instantly spat the tea out.

Yan Lingyu: It doesn't need to be too grand. I’m just giving advance notice that I’ll be heading to the Zhenglong Martial Arts Hall tomorrow afternoon to issue a challenge, so everyone can get ready to watch the live stream.

As I walked for a while, an image suddenly surfaced in my mind: the corpse that had been bound to the wall, dripping with blood just a moment ago.

"I... what just happened to me?" Simon suddenly regained his senses, bewildered by his own previous behavior. What had just occurred? He looked at his palms, wondering why he had reached out in the first place.

After leaving Luoyang, Zhang Fan and his men traveled without rest until they arrived here. As for why Zhang Fan had come, it went without saying.

Huang Lu said. Her ability to write lyrics and compose music was quite good; otherwise, she wouldn't have scored so high on the college entrance exams.

Her expression was strange and complex at that moment. To Liang Chen’s eyes, it was naturally clear, and he smiled without a word. He didn't even remember how he had signed the documents afterward, or if he had actually signed them at all. Vaguely, it seemed Jiang Caixuan had asked him with concern what was wrong and if anything had happened.

The second stage of the Echoing Strike performed a wide "V" shape in the air, flying straight toward Karma.

Su Yu shook her head; she was still uneasy. How could a child climb out of bed in the middle of the night?

At this, the fierce beasts that had been observing and holding onto a glimmer of hope prostrated themselves on the ground once more, begging for mercy repeatedly.

Suddenly, with Wang Yue’s appearance, the people in the internet cafe who had been gathered around to watch the show were all stunned.

"Yeah, but I can only see a blurry shape," Deng Rui said, her eyes fixed on the drawing as she answered.
