Volume One, Chapter 34: Du Fu Possessed the Talent of a Chancellor
Mo Yu was now four or five levels higher than he had been before slaying the pseudo-corpse emperor, so it was expected that the experience gain would be minimal. After all, he had only leveled up once this time.
With this improvement, Jiang Jichen could now barely traverse a hundred miles within the Chaotic Void without suffering severe injuries; at most, he would sustain only minor ones. Having finished these preparations and waited for the Heaven-Slaying Formation and the Soul-Refining Banner to clear the battlefield, Jiang Jichen stepped out of the Bone Palace.
However, that was not the main point. The point was that under the terrifying sword light, the Heaven-Opening Axe lasted for less than a single breath before shattering into pieces, scattering in all directions.
"You will know in due time; there is no point in telling you now," the Heavenly Emperor Jue Luo said with a mysterious smile.
Furthermore, the Poison-Devouring Pearl contained its own private space. This area was where Jiang Jichen usually entered and exited; it was the supreme sanctum within the pearl's dimension.
Master Muzi had a history of numerous transactions with the Chamber of Commerce—this was no secret, and Cui Donglai had heard of it before. However, he had never heard of a single exchange being of such magnitude.
Of course, this was hardly a difficult task. As the second-in-command, with Zhao Lina, the leader, covering for him, who would dare to easily suspect him of being absent for two and a half days?
The general level of cultivation here was so low, yet it was still possible to obtain the Heavenly Emperor’s fortune. It was surprisingly lenient, truly left to fate.
Consequently, the Magistrate of Longjiang County was left completely bewildered. Damn it, both sides were plaintiffs, and both sides were defendants—what the hell was he supposed to do?
Backlit, his features were obscured, yet one could feel a halo surrounding him. Su Qianyi watched, momentarily entranced, as he walked slowly forward, his hair flowing in the wind with a hint of languid grace.
A bolt of lightning, like a wild dragon, tore through the void, and a grim, demonic claw over ten feet long suddenly thrust out.
Xia Ye frowned. Could it be such a coincidence? They had barely come out, and they had run into the Hu family again? The Hu family should really change their surname; perhaps they should change it to "Lecherous."
"The world is not yet at peace; how can you two live as a pair?" The President felt indignant, yet he found no words to speak.

Along the way, Chun Yi sat with Lin Ruo in a carriage, holding her cold hands and watching her remain in a distraught state, feeling a deep ache in her heart.
Thinking of his family, he recalled the memories transmitted from his clone: his mother, Chen Shuhua, was now personally teaching him the methods of practicing spiritual power.
Chu Shaolei and the others had been with Xia Ye for a long time and obeyed his words almost subconsciously. Xi Muchen’s team members, however, hesitated, looking first toward Xi Muchen.
At the same time, an entire net of lightning fell, enveloping the snake. The net was not very dense, but wherever the snake touched it, sparks flew.
Father Gu doted on his wife the most; seeing what she said, how could he dare to disobey? Thus, he couldn't help but agree, "Alright."
At this moment, Han Ming whispered to himself, "The Dao is unkind, treating all things as straw dogs?" After speaking, Han Ming suddenly felt the environment shift. Opening his eyes weakly, he no longer saw a dream, but Murong Wan by his side.
"So, he knew everything all along. What, what else can I say?" Zi Yi bit her lip gently, her mind in chaos. Moreover, Zi Yi was no longer certain of her own feelings toward Han Ming.
Only then did the crowd come to their senses. This Qin Ya held a grudge against the Shangguan family. If Shangguan Bei were to help Qin Ya here, would that not be openly opposing the Shangguan family? Upon this realization, they pondered for a moment and did not intervene.
Whenever Han Ming recalled the sensation of being struck by lightning that day, his scalp would tingle. Now, Han Ming was truly terrified of this heavenly lightning. Although he had the luck to recover his body, it was unclear if others would have the same fortune.
Brother Ma sighed and said nothing. The room was filled with smoke, and everyone fell into a heavy silence.
I nodded. "Swipe the card." Li Zhao had drunk too much, which saved me the bill, though I had agreed he would treat. Thinking of this, I felt a sudden pang of regret.
The volume of this deep-sea creature was simply too vast—so vast that, until now, no ship-girl had been able to inflict any significant damage upon it; their attacks were often like mosquito bites.
A dozen men in suits took out their phones and began making calls. Xia Tianwei watched me, and Xia Ran watched me too.
Not only Feng Qianshan, but leaders like Feng Xian also couldn't help but kneel, without a single complaint. They felt more moved and pleasantly surprised; some were even shedding tears.

By now, he was already a millionaire. If he didn't lose his head and played steadily, becoming a multi-millionaire was a near certainty. However, becoming a billionaire still seemed out of reach. If a person has no dreams, how are they any different from a salted fish?
Then, he immediately recalled the duel that had taken place earlier at the Wandao Restaurant, so it was not hard to deduce that the person before him was Pei Feng, who had slain Zhang Baiwan.
Wang Lexin, in the room next door, had slept too much on the plane and now couldn't fall asleep at all, especially in this spacious room where everything she saw was so luxurious and opulent.
Wang Lexin felt that she might have been a bit excessive; even machines need a rest after working for a long time, let alone a human being.
He topped up one thousand yuan into the game, but the system still did not react. This showed that spending money on himself, even if it were a hundred million, did not conform to the "spendthrift" rules set by the system.
His right eyelid kept twitching from time to time; he felt as if something bad was about to happen.
In the end, that rich kid’s home was raided by the people sent by the Hongyuan Tower, and even that was far from enough.
While the crowd watched in a daze, Shuang Lengning had already walked to the central bronze giant door under the protection of her guards.
No sooner said than done, he found a colleague who worked with servers, set up a local area network server, and entered the same game progress.
Pei Feng thought to himself that the firewood nearby must have already been picked up by the earlier Foundation Establishment cultivators. If he wanted to start a fire, he would have to go further away, which would be too much trouble.
"Seeking flowers and asking for willows?" After the words faded, a drunken man leaned against the door and collapsed. Was this truly "drinking flower wine"?
