Chapter 39: You Have Quite a Temper

Leaving just like that felt a little inappropriate. What if he took offense? That would be troublesome.

After all, he was the client—the kind of person she could not afford to offend.

Besides, he had gone out of his way to buy her hangover tea and barbecue.

And since he had made a special trip to see her, she might as well reluctantly let him stay the night.

Shen Yichi’s expression remained cold and solemn. “Didn’t President Song just say…”

Jiang Zaiyuan completed everything in a matter of moments and subdued Zhao Zhi, leaving Yu Hongtao and his two subordinates staring in stunned disbelief.

“If you ask me, the problem you had before is already very clear: this product is simply too damn good—so good that we have no idea how to package or promote it,” Bai Bin said. “As for solving the problem, it’s actually quite simple. At present, we have three major directions: cosmetics, medicine, and food.”

With a furious, unwilling cry, Liang Tianyun suddenly began to glow blue. A blue sword emerged from his body, and he seized its hilt. Then he swung the long blade, sending hundreds upon hundreds of sword auras crisscrossing through the air and cleaving the black flood-dragon manifestations around him into clouds of black mist.

A flash of red light appeared, and a deer-kin mage wrapped entirely in eight blazing shields materialized in midair. The two vampires in black were both startled. The mage was clearly a fire-element caster—so how could he fly?

Zheng Ba said, “So you’re saying that Prime Minister Huang is determined to help Lin Peiqi, even if it means disregarding the military’s objections?”

Facing the prime minister of the nation, he showed not the slightest trace of respect. Zhuge Yuanshan could not help shaking his head, feeling that Zheng Ba had gone too far.

The food really was remarkably effective. After Lei Zhan finished eating, he felt a pleasant warmth spread through his body and no longer wanted to go outside. Recently, whenever Aisha and her mother had nothing to do, they practiced dancing, and they even performed a short dance for Lei Zhan.

That was why he first offered a few polished platitudes, leaving himself a way out. Should he prove unable to prevail, Zhao Ru would not be able to strike him with full force.

Tian Sheng listened in a daze. The concepts of one’s own world and parallel worlds were so complicated that they nearly made his head spin.

A laugh like the chiming of silver bells suddenly rang out. Ming Qi lifted his gaze and saw Yizhen, clad in fluttering white gauze, ethereal as an immortal, appear behind the Crown Prince.

After completing all this, Zhang Wutian used his magical treasure, the Seven Dragon Balls, to create an Earth devoid of any trace of the supernatural.

Since that expert was genuinely formidable and had little need for healing from the natural mage on the team, he simply brought himself along as well. He had originally only exchanged a few casual words with the student during a break between classes, yet somehow fate had fallen from the heavens into his lap.

The people who had chased after them from afar stared at the scene in utter astonishment; some even forgot to keep running.

“I always feel as though the world is full of malice toward me. Do I not exist in any world at all…?” Trunks thought bitterly.

Almost every paragraph, Mao Duan was able to pinpoint their current problems with startling sharpness. Before this, they had considered themselves refined scholars, but Luo Yan now told them bluntly that in an age of peace and prosperity, anyone who played at this was the true loser.

In reality, however, the experiment showed that this kind of “faster-than-light communication” had no practical value, because it could not transmit any meaningful information at all.

Although Yang Zhonglin, Huang Zizhu, Yao Cheng, and the others had never seen the domed chamber within the Genesis Source and could not determine what the hemispherical object beneath the sea actually was, they immediately understood upon seeing the absolute certainty in Yuan Haochen’s expression.

More importantly, the American army was advancing westward from the Amazon River, preparing to enter Brazil’s interior and cut off the Brazilian government’s retreat. Had the Han Kingdom not forbidden American warships from entering the Amazon, and had the rainforest’s brutal transportation conditions not held them back, they would have completed their occupation of Brazil long ago.
