Chapter 53 The Same School
Seeing the situation tipping completely in her favor, Su Mi slowly sat down, blinked at Gu Liangyan, and smiled triumphantly.
They couldn't really be blamed for suspecting them; the appearances of Ye Yunle and Feng Jue fit the profile of vampires far too well.
Upon seeing such a mighty and ferocious man appear before her, the proprietress instantly grew flustered and infatuated, staring fixedly at Zhan Musi's prominent bulge, sensing the powerful explosive force radiating from it.
"That's right, Captain. We aren't really adept at multi-tasking; mistakes are very likely to happen." Not only Luo Peng, but Feng Haodong and the others thought the same way.
Seven years ago, their entire unit was wiped out. The things inside the imperial palace filled them with dread, preventing them from getting close. Yet, after tossing and turning in agonizing indecision, four years later, they returned anyway. Having finally lured the descendant of the Cen royal family out of the palace, it had actually worked.
The Wang clan of Taiyuan ranked a tier below the Yang and Yuan clans, placing them on par with dozens of similar families across the realm. Even so, aside from the top eight great clans, the Taiyuan Wang clan could still be considered a top-tier aristocratic family in the world.
Lu Chengxuan had long since bribed Taozhi to keep a constant watch on Gao Wenyu's every move. Gao Wenyu could never have imagined that Taozhi—who had been at odds with Lu Chengxuan from the very beginning—would end up helping Lu Chengxuan at the critical moment by revealing the hiding place of the scented powder.
Both of them were capable of playing off-ball with non-overlapping skill sets, and in addition, Zhan Musi possessed strong individual scoring capabilities. If they joined forces, their destructive power would multiply several times over.
Clean, grounded, pragmatic... and most importantly, free from any messy interpersonal entanglements.
Among the various factions tracking him, the 11th Division was the most formal and upright. The leading officer carried a formal conscription order issued directly by the fleet, though the clues they had were also the sparsest. Over three months, they had hardly any opportunities for action.
The consequence of being so stubborn was an even more gruesome death. With five minutes left before the end of the game, the 76ers were already leading the Timberwolves by 28 points, and having reached 49 points by then, Scott specifically called a timeout to welcome their hero off the court and officially declare an end to this massacre of a game.
Cheng Yao fell to the ground. Although she hadn't been finished off, CD was currently unable to spare a hand to rescue her and could only quietly watch as Cheng Yao bled to death.
In the past, although they belonged to the legendary general's faction, they were still bottom-tier soldiers.
As for Wu Zhiyue, it was akin to sitting on the roof of a high-speed bullet train. First and foremost, she had to ensure the train kept moving without falling off.
She saw the wound on the back of the giant bullfrog healing at a terrifying speed. In a flash, the enormous bullfrog opened its mouth once again, and a mass of vines surged from all directions toward Yang Hang, who was holding the two little girls.
Having played PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds for so long, with a KDA over 3, executing a quick peek-and-shoot was not a problem for him, especially since his opponent's head was practically exposed for him to aim at.
Creeping along the base of the corridor wall, the phantom slipped into a restroom a dozen meters away, gently approached the window, and peered outside.
"Fine, fine, just like you, I surrender to you!" Li Feng shook his head helplessly. This stubborn old woman, already at her advanced age, was still arguing over such trivial matters—what was there even to argue about?
Thinking of how such a young soldier had sacrificed his life just like that, never able to return, how was he supposed to explain this to his comrades? How to the country? How to their parents?
"Some things must be faced alone." Chu Yang loved this quote deeply. Therefore, Chu Yang also prepared to face certain things by himself. Walking along with these thoughts, Chu Yang felt a pang of heartache, constantly smoking to suppress the pain within his chest. Right at that moment, a voice drifted over.
Softly pressing a kiss to Ruan Yunyun's forehead, Quan Quan slowly put his clothes back on, strapped the dark-jade crucifix hanging by the bedside onto his back, and thought to himself—now that he had met Kang Chen, it was time to hand this mystical artifact over to Kang Chen. By then, would Kang Chen perhaps feel the same confusion he once had?
"Yun'er, look what this is." Brother Ye fished an exquisite white porcelain bottle from his bosom, shook it in front of Yun'er, lifted the corners of his mouth upward with a trace of lifelessness, and finally failed to muster his usual smile.
"Is it here?" The bearded man was the first to walk up to the innermost room, pointing at the door and asking.
Several questions surged into President Hu's mind all at once, leaving him completely unable to make sense of things. The only thing he could do was figure out the Chairman's true intentions first so that he could prescribe the right remedy and express his views accordingly.
His relationship with Fang Dou was like that of blood brothers with no need for taboos, so he asked directly.
Living like this could make life much more flavorful and pleasant, but today, she simply had to get up early. Geng Rong over there must be looking forward to seeing her, and she herself longed to see him early as well. Oh right, she also had to help him make something delicious.
"Alliance Leader, I pledge my allegiance to you!" Seeing how formidable Chunyuan Liang was, Yunyang—who had just declared his allegiance to him moments ago—decided that despite Chunyuan Liang having just split his father's head open with a single palm strike, as the saying goes, a miserable life is better than a good death. Therefore, shoving the pill Chunyuan Liang had given him into his mouth, he bowed once again and said.
After cutting off Ao Zhan's words and before giving him a chance to ask further, Su Zheng hoodwinked Ao Zhan and Ao Qiu once again, saying, "I have no idea what the Giant Demon Abyss wants with this 'treasure,' but yesterday three Demon Monarchs came to pressure me, and I almost couldn't help but hand it over to them."
A sleek car, a beautiful woman, fame, and fortune all at once—this was what every man dreamed of. Looking at An Lei's exquisite face, the luxury sedan parked behind her, and thinking of An Lei's family background, as long as he could win An Lei over, he could live a life of extravagant luxury from then on and leap straight into so-called high society.
