Chapter 56: Founding a Girls’ School

Xu Nian looked at the extremely cold flames surging over Lu Qiuyue, a flash of surprise crossing his face.

You can buy whatever you want only when you have money; when you are broke, the very thought of buying something probably won't even cross your mind. Today, Shengda cannot be said to be broke, but it can no longer support large-scale mergers and acquisitions.

At this moment, inside a cave closest to the magma, a completely naked man with a fiery red body was sitting cross-legged on the ground. His hair was fiery red, almost matching the color of the magma, and he had a rugged Western face.

Subsequently, more than a dozen clan heads cupped their fists toward Zuo Danzhi, then turned and dispersed, returning to the spots where their respective family members were located and taking their exclusive seats. This caused the various families to form a circle around the square in front of the hall.

"My Crimson Lotus Karmic Fire storm is no joke. Just wait to be turned into flying ash," the old man sneered inwardly.

That appearance was brutal to the extreme. If this Tauren soldier were not a ghost but had a physical body, its neck would have been slashed open, sending blood spraying everywhere like a fountain, making the scene even more gloomy and terrifying.

They knew that Xu Nian would never stay behind to become the Emperor; otherwise, he would have been the Emperor years ago.

"If I run into the Mechanical Mother Entity again, I'll make sure it gets a nasty surprise first!" Not to mention, with an RPG slung over his shoulder, Xiao Qiang really looked a bit like a terrorist, though he would deny it to the death.

With such a high probability of elimination, basically no one dared to guarantee that they could pass safely without showing some genuine strength.

"Are the people of the Radiant Church all so weak now? You think this level of attack can stop me? Looking for death!" The Dark Pope let out an angry laugh, and then a powerful dark fluctuation erupted once more from his heart.

Specifically, when two hypotheses possess exactly the same explanatory and predictive power, we base our discussion on the simpler hypothesis.

I clearly remember the expression Department Head Rias gave me at that time; her bright eyes were filled with curiosity. That expression was extremely beautiful and deeply captivating, truly worthy of being Kuoh Academy's older sister-in-charge.

"Forget it, stop arguing. We still need Old Man Mu to lead the way ahead. Calm down and say less," someone nearby advised.

Hearing Falcon being humiliated like this by Wu Xiuchi, the happiest person was undoubtedly Mo Xiong from the Mo Gang. He had originally worried that the Blood Bat Gang would intervene in the conflict between him and Falcon, but listening to Wu Xiuchi's words, Tian Shu had no such intention at all, and Falcon had simply offered a warm face to a cold backside.

Because Wang Chen had tightly shielded Zhou Youcai and Feng Han behind him when the dragon ball exploded, neither of the latter two was injured.

Such a speed of cultivation was something even he did not possess. However, he could guess to some extent that Lan Ruoli's ability to cultivate to such a formidable level was definitely inseparable from the divine soul hidden within her body. Yet, judging by her current state, the fusion effect was actually quite good.

"Sigh!" Su Mu sighed again and looked at Tang Chen. His gaze had changed, becoming much sharper, as if he were implicitly warning of something.

The black-clad cultivator ignored the grand bow of the Qilin Ancestor entirely and turned to walk away. At this moment, a fairly large lake of blood had already gathered at the foot of Qilin Mountain. The black-clad cultivator actually stepped right to the edge of the lake.

Luo Fanxue did not speak, only tightening her grip on Luffy's hand. For this overbearing man, she felt only deep love; everything he did was right, and he would never do anything to harm her. Without him, she could not live.

"Tea?" Xiao Yan was very surprised, yet somewhat disappointed. Why, after all her warnings, was he still thinking about enjoying life? Could it have been that she misjudged him?

A horse bandit behind him slashed his saber into Borjigin's thigh. Borjigin stumbled and fell to the ground, looking in disbelief at the person behind him.

Lianzhi was carried away for medical treatment. Although her life was not in danger, she remained unconscious due to severe shock.

Fortunately, his subordinates were all utterly loyal to him, and the news of Mou Yun'en visiting the mansion that day had not leaked out. Otherwise, there was no telling how much further trouble she would have dragged him into, and in that case, she would never have been able to forgive herself.

The atmosphere at the scene was bone-chillingly grim. Everyone was holding back their breath, but they remained relatively restrained and did not actually start fighting.

"Master!" Yichun entered the room. The only person she recognized was Feng Xi耶, and she called out habitually.

Everyone nodded one after another. Shi Zhong and Chang Hui took the lead, striding toward the picturesque courtyard. Yao Hulu, both curious and excited, followed closely behind them, giggling sheepishly. The few elite soldiers also wanted to laugh but dared not, walking a few steps and then stopping to wait for Liu Ye and Qingling to catch up.

Two gunshots rang out, and a vibrant flower of blood blossomed on her moon-white qipao. Her arm deflected from its trajectory due to the piercing pain, and a bullet grazed her temple, leaving a deep bloody gash. The fresh blood gushed out, looking utterly terrifying.

A tiger roar echoed across the sky. Following the sound, everyone present froze in astonishment. At that very moment, the Tiger King executed a fierce pivot and, taking advantage of everyone's momentary trance, charged rapidly toward the Roc King.

The three Supreme Elders were greatly startled, unleashing wave after wave of surging fist power toward the giant claw to counter that suction force.

As for Lin Feng, he had nothing better to do at the time, so he agreed. He never expected that no matter how the Lin family investigated the matter, they ended up uncovering Lin Feng's true background instead.

Lin Jiuniang gritted her teeth. "The Zhang family's legitimate businesses are tea houses and rouge-and-powder shops, but the secret source of their greatest profit is actually the brothels."

This sudden development caught everyone off guard. Most of the people present had low cultivation levels and were simply incapable of stepping in to prevent such an event.

After sharing a tender moment for a while, Su Yang prepared to discuss the afternoon's events with his wife.

It was unclear whether he was pondering the credibility of Lin Yu's words or considering other possible destinations for that batch of mechas.

Knowing she had gotten the upper hand, she stopped talking and simply held Su Yunnuan's hand, quietly enjoying the rare moment of tranquility.

"Dr. Xu said that because of the heavy rain today, the clinic is temporarily closed, and it will reopen once the rain stops," Lin Keni explained.
