Chapter 43: I Am Not Afraid of You

Facing Gu Shuyao's entreaties for mercy, Han Yang sneered, "It is too late to say this now. You have not only harmed my interests, but also those of the White Ghost Consortium. The White Ghost Consortium will not let you off. Just wait to face your punishment. Your road has reached its end; you have nowhere left to run."

Upon hearing this, Gu Shuyao's body went limp, and she collapsed to the ground.

Fang Juyi, standing to the side, also sensed that something was amiss.

...

It was not to say that Yang Mi was unattractive, nor that he was a hater of Yang Mi. Rather, there was a period of time when he strongly disliked her, especially during the time when she acted in Qing Dynasty imperial dramas, causing him to harbor a prejudice against her due to his dislike for Liu Shuo.

Of course, the anxiety Liu Shuo felt beforehand about being mocked by his friends did not come to pass. In truth, he had worried excessively; his friends had only meant well for him, otherwise no one would have urged him to host such a grand celebration.

Tang Huang let out a light snort, and a massive thunder dragon measuring over several meters instantly materialized from the sky, violently crashing down toward Altair.

"Then, Executive Liu, may I ask how much longer the analgesic effect of this medicine will last?" At this point, Elder Gu could not help but ask aloud. He was far too eager for this sensation of being completely free from pain and lightness. He genuinely hoped his body could remain this way indefinitely.

If such a thing were truly achievable, could humanity also attain immortality for such an extended duration?

In Long Xia's perception, that fiend had undoubtedly entered this city. It seemed that this individual must have employed some method to bypass everyone's perception, sneaking in quietly.

"You are also a descendant of the old general, and furthermore, this matter has already been leaked. That Prince of Liaodong..." Dan Danchen glanced at Chang Ning's expression and left the sentence unfinished.

This day passed peacefully, ordinarily, and quietly. Not a single accident occurred. After all, in the past, they were always the ones seeking out trouble; since they did not go out this time, trouble did not come knocking on their doors either.

"Ling, are you really going to wash your hands of the world of Schwarzesmarken?" At the lunar base in the mortal world, Tang Huang frowned as he looked at Ling.

No matter what, enormous benefits had been reaped here. Whether it was the spirit pool or the mental cultivation technique extracted from it, the trip was entirely worth it.

The crowd was unaware of what was happening, but upon asking the driver, they learned that someone had placed numerous large boulders across the road ahead, making it utterly impossible to pass through.

Although Yun Nuobing willingly conceded defeat, everyone knew that even if he continued to hold out, while he might not have lost immediately, given enough time, defeat would still have been inevitable.

The ancient souls of reincarnation remain upon the Three-Life Stone, where appreciating the moon and chanting poetry needs no further discussion. I am grateful that an old friend has traveled far to visit me; though our physical forms differ, our true natures endure.

At that very instant, a beam of divine light erupted from between his brows, sweeping down to slash around Ye Qiu's neck.

Naturally, if Nie Tian were somehow to genuinely secure the position of chief disciple, the Hong family would likely be tripping over themselves to ingratiate him—what grievances could they possibly still hold?

Although the previous punch failed to shatter its head, it nevertheless plunged the creature into a state of dizziness.

"Hold onto this!" Han Jinhuai placed all the money directly into Mo Qianqian's hands, making her clutch it tightly.

Wu Yidan covered her mouth and chuckled softly in silence, leaving Lian Xin utterly amused and exasperated. Was it truly a crime to have grown up looking like this?

These consortia and he were well aware that the US dollar system they had painstakingly built had suffered a devastating blow. If Huaxia continued to maintain such a strong stance, the RMB would inevitably become the new world currency.

"Princess?" Seeing that Lian Xin gave no response for a long time after speaking, Gong Xueliu could not help but knit her delicate brows and call out.

Lin Yuming felt a vague sense of doubt in his heart. Several times recently, Qin Manyun had declined his invitations with such polite excuses—what on earth was the reason?

However, as Su Zheng's blade grew increasingly fierce, the internal strength within his body rapidly diminished. He feared that the moment he ceased circulating his recovery energy, he would be cleaved in half by Su Zheng's saber.

On that day, the vanguard was personally led by Gao Shun. Seeing that Zhang Chun was entirely focused on the city and completely unprepared for their arrival, Gao Shun made a decisive judgment and launched an assault on Zhang Chun's encampment.
