Chapter 126: The Young Lady Has Gotten Carried Away × The Outlaws Come Calling

In an instant, the Azure Cloud Art within Tia began circulating at tremendous speed of its own accord.

The spiritual pressure in her meridians transformed into a resplendent river of stars, surging through every limb and bone.

With each cycle of circulation, the spiritual pressure in her dantian grew denser, until at last it reached a critical point.

Boom!

It was as though thunder had exploded within her dantian. The spiritual pressure that had gathered there suddenly collapsed into a profound vortex.

An endless tide of spiritual pressure, like a hundred rivers flowing into the sea, was drawn into that black-hole-like vortex.

“Real gold and silver are still the most reliable. They take up hardly any space, and besides, they’re precious metals and universally accepted currency. If something happens in the future, their value will only rise. There’s no fear of being unable to spend them.”

“All the surveillance equipment was destroyed in the blast. We have no news yet about any breakthrough, but I believe that monster definitely didn’t survive!” Pointing at the surveillance screens filled with static, Li Wei spoke with solemn conviction.

The concentrated beam of light continued battering Medusa’s Shield. No matter how much its power was increased, it remained impossible to shake the shield.

However, when they landed, the two of them were practically embracing, rolling across the ground like a pair of tumbling gourds before crashing into the media seats outside the arena.

There was no helping it. The industrialization of our cottage operation had become an urgent necessity. If conditions existed, we had to move forward; if they didn’t, we had to create them. That was a phrase the deputy director who would later oversee us often repeated. Now, it had truly proven prophetic.

“My name is Hong Wu.” After giving his name, Hong Wu first placed his digital watch on the table, then set down his backpack. It was stuffed with so many demon-beast ears that it had been stretched round and taut. When it landed on the table, it actually made a loud thump.

“Did you bring my clothes? What took you so long?” Ye Mengmeng appeared before Fang He wrapped in a bath towel. She had been waiting rather a while, so she had simply come out wearing it.

At last, the staff finished their appraisal and quoted the price to Hong Wu. His consent was required: once the buyer had named a price and the seller had no objection, the transaction was considered complete.

The sword Changsun Jianmo had unleashed was unquestionably his strongest. It was only at the moment of death that he had grasped the essence of the Merciless Sword Path.

They had been busy since early morning until well into the afternoon. Uncle Li had prepared plain rice. It was a rule of the Ning family that on rent-collection day, the landlord provided unlimited food. One bowl was fine, and so were ten, if someone could eat that much. The Ning family was not responsible for medical expenses, but Doctor Xie still waited nearby, just in case eating too much caused trouble and emergency treatment became necessary.

“Have you heard any news?” Xu Qingyun set down her cup. Compared with Xu Qingyang’s restlessness, she appeared far more composed.

This Tuo Sen was famous in Thailand because she was notorious—a widely feared evil sorceress whom no one dared provoke lightly. She had once assisted a major drug lord in the Golden Triangle, and her mastery of black magic was astonishing. She had already made a name for herself in Thailand more than twenty years ago.

By the time Yang Hua arrived at the hotel, Bai Yixue was sitting on the sofa watching television. Yao Feier had already gone back long before.

Wang Kai spoke magnanimously. How could the S.H.I.E.L.D. possibly discover his secret at will? The dimensional system existed within his brain, and even Wang Kai himself had no idea in what form it existed. Even if S.H.I.E.L.D. dissected him, they probably still would not find the system.

Ye Tian also stepped forward, joining them in examining the stone-carved statue and the ancient stone pillar.

Lu Haotian’s instructions left Hua Qian and Meng Yu so astonished that their mouths fell open. Preparing all this for Su Yingmei? Did that mean the game Lu Haotian had previously said he would play with Su Yingmei was about to begin?

Lu Haotian raised his head. At a time like this, what wish of hers could he possibly be unable to fulfill? No matter how difficult it was, he would find a way. Wouldn’t he?

Lu Haotian felt somewhat angry. How had Su Yingmei become so timid? Was she actually afraid of him? It was truly infuriating—and yet heartbreaking. Even so, the words Lu Haotian spoke carried a note of reproach.
