35. Another World

It was a business partnership, not a loan to Bai Yao'er; Shi Sha had made that point very clear in her words.

He bowed heavily before the spirit tablet of Masakawa Taniyano, then stood up and headed toward the Japanese garrison headquarters in Baiyang Town.

Regardless, the shock this battle sent through the entire world was undeniable. It had once again reshaped their perception of the Huaxia Empire and revealed that there were still many things in this world they knew nothing about.

As his teammate collapsed, the referee blew the whistle, and everyone rushed over. The opponent was clutching his face as blood streamed between his fingers; the elbow strike had hit the corner of his mouth, tearing open a wound that was gushing blood.

Nie Qingyun was currently accompanying Koji Okamoto, Vice President of the Mitsubishi Group, on an inspection tour of Dahei Mountain.

The two were already entangled as they entered the door. Gao Jun, while savoring Tong Ling’s passionate kisses, reached behind his back to lock the door, shrugged off his coat, and tossed it onto the window of the room.

Perhaps this departure meant they would never return; perhaps it was a final farewell. But time was pressing, and each of them harbored their own thoughts.

It used to be the "Nebula Sovereign," but now it had been replaced by the "Ancestral Dragon Scripture." How could there be a god in his mind, "supervising" him at every moment?

After observing Guo Shaoge’s attack, Zhang Ming was essentially certain of his opponent’s strategy. Zhang Ming had seen through it, but he had no intention of pointing it out, so he gladly met Guo Shaoge head-on for a clash.

Subsequently, the technical department examined Chen Tianguo’s mobile phone and confirmed that he had indeed received a call from Zhou Meiling before the power outage.

As for Chang Qing, it wasn’t that he didn’t want to mail the disc to Ran Sinian, but he was simply too busy with the gimmicks and promotional work ahead of the film’s release. By the time he finally remembered, he no longer had the opportunity to instruct his subordinates.

"Listen clearly to what I say: you are not allowed to go looking for those disreputable friends of yours again. Tomorrow, I am taking you to Japan," his sister said.

"If I become your personal bodyguard, can I take time off?" I had no desire to be at her beck and call; my relationship with her was nothing more than a charade.

When Qin Long was nineteen, after he had severely injured the town mayor’s son, Master Jiudao calculated that this was a turning point in his destiny and drove Qin Long out of the house.

Weiyi knew that the cost of living on Planet Caesar was relatively high, so such ticket prices were not considered expensive for civilians with steady jobs; a family could easily afford to see a movie once or twice a month.

"Keep your hand under his neck a bit more, haha... Da Vinci’s expression is just too funny..." Weiyi immediately opened her optical computer and took several photos.

"Then what’s the point of playing?" Choufei threw the Stone of Three Lives to the ground in frustration, a look of despair on his face. His previous notions had been completely overturned, and for a moment, he felt utterly lost.

Could this be the reason he proposed to marry her? Could this guy be treating her as a substitute?! At this thought, an inexplicable anger welled up in Lian Xin’s heart.

At this moment, Nangong Zhenhua walked up to the third blue-and-white porcelain vase. He stared at it for a while, his brow furrowing deeply, as if he couldn’t discern anything unusual. Without a word, he moved past it and continued to the fourth.

Take the Black Tiger as an example. The Black Tiger belongs to the earth-element magical beasts, and its ability is to manipulate the earth. The elemental stone within its body is naturally an earth elemental stone.

Just like that, Chongqing became increasingly chaotic. A movement against dictatorship, autocracy, and brutality, and for democracy and autonomy, erupted in the city.

Elemental stones are only found in the Magical Beast Forest; if you are lucky, you can pick one up just by walking a few steps.

As soon as his voice trailed off, the surrounding Japanese soldiers immediately raised their rifles and aimed them at him. It seemed that if his answer wasn’t satisfactory, he wouldn’t be leaving this place alive.

It had only been three months, and expenditures had already exceeded forty-two million. Where had all that money gone?

Lian Ling sat cross-legged on the ground, neither cloaked in invisibility nor paying any attention to the newcomer. She sat there as if nothing had happened, not even deigning to look up. She was not circulating her cultivation technique because her internal spiritual power was too weak and her injuries too severe to allow for self-recovery.

The current situation was merely because that Da tribesman had beaten the earth-element beast and buried it in the soil. Stimulated by the threat of death, the innate tree body had absorbed the earth’s energy from the ground, accidentally unsealing a portion of its power. This power belonged to the pure physical realm and was completely unaffected by the Mangyuan Array, though it could not last long.

"Foolish, daring to attack a magic treasure directly! An ignorant idiot who doesn't know his limits!" Such a thought suddenly crossed the young man’s mind.

Following the first Black Tiger’s charge, the remaining ones all rushed forward in unison, every one of them targeting the group.

According to his understanding, Wang Fu had no grudge against Zhao Gou, nor could the two be considered acquaintances. The only possibility was that Wang Fu was acting under someone else's direction. Zhao Ji then realized that since Wang Fu was a man of the Crown Prince Zhao Huan, he didn't need to think twice about who was behind the scenes.

A flash of surprise crossed Mo Tucheng’s eyes; he hadn't expected Nangong Changfeng to possess such a powerful technique. However, he did not believe in the power of the "Chaotic Stars," and immediately struck four consecutive "Soul-Breaking Palms" at the boundaries of the distorted space, intending to shatter the technique.

After Li Er arranged the matters at the encampment, he followed Xiao Ni to Shanghai. In truth, he was just being lazy and unwilling to handle the tedious tasks, leaving the mess for Er Lengzi, Xue Yong, and Liu Lihua to deal with.

Several cars drove in sequence, arriving shortly at the "Chunqiao" Restaurant, where the drivers parked their vehicles in the slots.

"It’s fine, it’s just that my energy and bio-electric charge are severely depleted, which is why I’m so weak. I’ll be fine after a rest," Geng Qiang said, his voice extremely frail.

Liu Quan’s several "Seven Kill Illusory Seals" were easily broken by Zhong Xingyun. His expression was now incredibly ugly. Not only had his sneak attack failed, but he had also been scorned and mocked by his own junior, leaving him filled with both shame and rage.

Frowning slightly, she said, "Mind your own business." She didn't know where this anger was coming from, but she simply didn't want him to see her as she was now.

"Isn't this a bit too savage? Even if you want to commit suicide, you should choose a gentler method! Like finding a quiet place and taking some immortal elixir to sleep forever—wouldn't that be a thousand times better than peeling off your own skull...?" Yunshi muttered continuously, as if she were reciting a requiem.
