48. The Energy Matrix
The room finally grew quiet. Liu Shuo let out a soft breath, cleared his mind of all distracting thoughts, and focused his attention entirely on the manga.
"Dad, you look so much cuter this way. Look, everyone is praising and envying you, instead of despising and mocking you like they used to. Doesn't this feel wonderful?" Ling Dong'er placed her hand gently on her father's shoulder and whispered.
The emperor had always been an extremely clever man; he knew well how to keep power firmly in his own hands.
Right there in broad daylight, in front of so many people, she asked him for an overnight fee as if it were the most natural thing in the world.
Sitting ducks and waiting for death was not Liu Shuo's style, but he did not have a good way to deal with online trolls either. One had to know that trolls endured precisely because they were so difficult to handle.
Just as the sword Qi was about to strike his body, the blood sword in his hand trembled, weaving the crimson sword Qi into a net. After shattering Mondala's sword Qi with unstoppable momentum, the net swept towards him.
Chao Chengsi gritted his teeth and produced a pile of magical artifacts and spiritual elixirs—these were his entire accumulated life savings.
Before the match, Liu Shuo had already reached an agreement with the Raptors, trading this year's and the year after's first-round draft picks from the Raptors in exchange for Kyle Lowry and Corey Brewer.
At that exact moment, a police car drove into the village. Upon seeing the situation, two police officers hurriedly got out to intervene.
If it were merely a standard game of chess, Wu Sining naturally would not experience a collapse in his mindset. However, the situation now was different: Senior Brother Liu was taking on two opponents at once. If they failed to defeat this Senior Brother Liu in a short time, then given their pride, it would mean they had already lost.
"I'm fine... don't worry about me. There are still many enemies, hurry and join the battle!" Xue Feng said calmly, having already rapidly integrated the power of the origin. His strength instantly reached the divine apex. Facing the monstrous army, Xue Feng did not dare to be negligent.
Lin Xiaoran looked at the pure spirit before him, truly at a loss for words. Seeing her helpless and pitiful expression, he was deeply bewildered as to how Qingling had ever managed to participate in this selection tournament.
Alice seemed to feel a bit guilty about leaving me aside so coldly, and she hugged Mao Xueying with a cheerful smile as she spoke.

The foremost group of alien cavalry, horses and riders alike, were shot into hedgehogs. The warhorses suffered the worst fate because Huyan Zan had deliberately intended to anchor the battle line, instructing all the hunters from Zhongding Village to aim their targets at the enemy's mounts. That was why the horses charging at the very front died so miserably, expiring almost without a sound of agony.
No sooner had the words fallen than two Vampire Counts whipped up a scarlet tempest around Han Chong's mechanical armor, while the twin vampire brother actually began to cast a spell.
Yet, no matter how tightly the Giant Asura King defended, there would always be moments of oversight. A Divine King-tier zombie successfully evaded the Giant Asura King's attacks and arrived beside Hua Yuning.
Upon hearing this, Binglan's heart suddenly pounded violently, bringing a suffocating sensation akin to Mount Tai pressing down upon her crown. She thought to herself: I wonder what new tricks Ouyang Mo is playing now.
"He is intervening? How could that be?" The branch leader's tone softened, slightly easing You's tense nerves.
Seeing this, Shenchuan Yan conjured a bundle of steel wire in his hand, dancing his hands to slice apart all the pear blossoms. Then he swept toward his opponent, completely rendering the pear blossoms useless against the steel wire's onslaught.
Madam Hua actually went so far as to admit her own mistake? Yun Xiang raised an eyebrow, shaking her head inwardly. For her to voluntarily take the blame could only mean that Madam Hua harbored an even greater scheme.
Thinking this, Huo Sining instantly felt reassured and ceased to be anxious. Her gaze lingered quietly upon the auction stage below as she waited for the bidding for the second chicken-head bronze piece to commence.
The old matriarch chuckled, and Madam Shi seized the opportunity to utter a few pleasing remarks that delighted the old lady, prompting her shortly thereafter to dismiss everyone while keeping only Zijin behind.
After ending the call, Nian Yichen gazed at the night scenery outside the window with a heavy gaze. After a long while, he turned his head slightly, his eyes falling upon the solitary figure on the bed.
Finally came Zhao Hui and Zhao Yan. Needless to say, Zhao Hui had enjoyed an exceptionally close relationship with Yunyang's family back under Chuyun Mountain, and after arriving in the capital, he became a frequent guest at their home. Later on, Zhao Yan interacted with Yunsheng and also became a close friend.
Tsk tsk, one could not treat Madam Hua in this manner, lest she and her husband end up unable to shirk their filial duties either. Yet the method Yun Xiang planned to employ would yield far better results than that, ensuring that even if Madam Hua truly fell ill in the future, she would not dare to make a fuss.
Having Matriarch Shen guard the inside was not enough; she even sent someone to guard the outside. What was this—double insurance?

The Divine Realm must have suffered a catastrophic upheaval, yet Ye Beiming had only foreseen the destinies of the Ye family's children; he had no inkling of what had actually transpired among the other factions in the Divine Realm.
God Emperor Fenggu's gaze toward Ye Lingyue shifted from the initial playful amusement of a cat toying with a mouse to one of solemn gravity, even carrying a faint undercurrent of murderous intent.
Noticing that something was amiss, Man Junxi instantly analyzed the on-site data. Being an exceptionally formidable researcher himself, he immediately grasped the crux of the problem.
It was only at this moment that Su Han understood why Chu Huifang, despite being a complete stranger, had instantly turned into an enemy upon their very first meeting. Although Chu Huifang's actions were understandable under the circumstances, the fault did not lie with Su Han, as she had been utterly oblivious to the whole affair.
These two had served in the military for less than a year combined. Supposedly, ever since emerging from the recruit camp, because they were too much of a thorn in the side, they had been kicked off to herd sheep in the culinary squad. From the day they entered the army to this day, they had fired a grand total of ten bullets.
"Mother, as long as you and the prophet leave, we will definitely still have opportunities in the future. This son will send you away right now." With these words, Yehua slowly released the empress and prepared to lift her horizontally in his arms.
Even details such as the quantity and length of the hair were data pre-stored within the sacred particles.
"If the RMB depreciates back down, the market will completely collapse. Judging by the probability of losses and the remaining downward space, this is the time to liquidate positions, or at the very least, liquidate a portion of them." Observing the data fluctuations, Ye Yaohua began to consult Wang Nuo for his opinion.
Upon witnessing this scene, Ji Manrou shot me a vicious glare and stormed off in a huff. Shen Jian also lost his mood; with tightly pursed lips and a cold glare, he watched me for a moment before fetching his clothes and leaving the room.
"What are you afraid of? Am I that terrifying?" Shen Jian walked right up to me, his anger burning even brighter, his brow furrowed as if he were about to strike me.
Su Han originally had no intention of mentioning her trip to Beijing, yet she felt she ought to be honest with the organization. After a moment of hesitation, she stated she was going to Beijing. Qian Weidong pondered for a moment before asking, then have you considered how long you plan to stay in Beijing?
