Chapter 56: Raging Storm
The surging momentum of the franchise boom did not subside with the busyness of the first day; instead, it intensified.
On the second and third days, the consultation hotline continued to ring incessantly, and the number of applicants coming in for face-to-face interviews did not decrease, but rather increased.
With the continuous fermentation of the newspaper advertisements, coupled with word-of-mouth recommendations from the first batch of applicants after returning home, the news that Chen's was opening up for franchising spread across Hong Kong and Kowloon as if it had grown wings.
Nobody was a fool; the prosperity of Chen's Dessert Shop was plain for everyone to see.
When Zhantian was fighting the five opponents, the people on the dune only then sensed the aura. However, what they sensed most directly was surprisingly Zhantian's aura, while vaguely only being able to feel that another aura was engaged in battle with him. Everyone was extremely puzzled.
After returning to her guest room, she took out her phone and dialed the number of the assistant who usually followed Nie Shen closely.
Following that, it flew straight toward the upper airspace of Daze Peak. At this moment, more than ten figures also flew out from Daze Peak to meet this war chariot, and among those figures was impressively Ye Lingyun.
"That's fine, just have them come over. By the way, the military will likely contact you in the next few days regarding the Black Jade Intermittent Ointment," said Zhantian.
One could only see the mountain ranges on both sides receding backwards, while the barren mountain peaks were capped with layers of heavy clouds, pressing down with an indescribable desolation.
After running a few laps, dawn had broken. Ah Kong gave them twenty minutes to go upstairs to wash up, and then come down to have breakfast in an orderly fashion.
"Return to the mountain range, regroup, and look for new combat opportunities," Zhantian suddenly shouted to the people below. With that, he glanced at Li Zihao and the others and turned to leave.
Yumeng also hurriedly took out an object and tossed it into the air, whereupon it slowly expanded. A huge, bizarre scale appeared, the entire scale shimmering with a faint secluded blue light.
I looked at Gu Qinzi, who was driving with intense concentration, and was truly speechless. Why was a crown prince like him, who had both looks and wealth, pestering me so relentlessly? Did he think it was fun to push an idiot into a corner?
"The scenery is truly lovely, what a pity I forgot to bring a camera inside," An Ke muttered as she walked along the forest path, admiring the scenery that was both beautiful and appetizing.
Old Wang shook his head helplessly, thinking to himself that WeChat used to be a hook-up artifact, but since he didn't have that hobby, naturally he wouldn't use it for that.
The sound of "rumble, rumble, rumble" explosions continued without stop, and gravel and sand splashed about chaotically. Except for Vice Admiral Prodi, who was still holding on with a rocket launcher, all the remaining marines had fallen down, looking exceptionally miserable in their sprawling disorder.
Within the Illusory Heart Secret Realm, four five-clawed imperial dragons flashed with spiritual light, their invincible posture illuminating the entire secret realm. The radiance of Guo Jing and the other three alone overshadowed the brilliance of all participating venerables, causing all other contestants to lose their color.
Due to the fame of the Moshou Shrine and the powerful demon-subduing arts of the Moshou clan, very few monsters caused trouble in the vicinity. Over the centuries, this place had become a rare sanctuary of humanity spanning across dozens of villages.
Then again, having followed Master Sun through all these years, what great storms and waves had the old lady not experienced? She must have long since mellowed out.
Zhao Yun led Duan Yu to guard the southern front, and as a result, a Vermilion Bird blazing with raging flames emerged into the world, intercepting all enemies in the sky. Zhang Baosheng and Huang Rong joined forces to drive three major defensive magical treasures, transforming them into a gigantic Black Tortoise mythical beast that blocked the vast majority of the attacks.

Helping you is helping ourselves, not to mention those damned humans who have also slain quite a few Dragon Kings of our clan," said the Ink-Patterned Poison Dragon chieftain, surrounded by dense toxic mist.
Perhaps due to the memory reorganization, this time Wang Yi did not lose himself, and his mind was exceptionally clear.
