Chapter 143: Just Deserts
"Director Su, you must save us! It was our greed, we were in the wrong. Please, hurry and contact Brother Ye to find out what is going on. We are facing two hundred million in damages!"
Su Boyong and his son were at their wits' end. Faced with a tidal wave of clients showing up to demand compensation, even the sturdy garden walls of the Su villa could no longer hold them back.
...
The demon did not speak, slowly raising his short sword. The soldier thought he was being spared and stood up to leave, but the treacherous creature struck in an instant, and the soldier's head fell to the ground.
He did not know if this was a bloodline inheritance from the Li family or a talent he possessed himself.
Feeling a bit dizzy, Chi Lian stood up and clung to Wei Zhuang's arm, resting her head gently against his shoulder.
"Are you that afraid of him finding out?" Glancing back, Wei Zhuang hooked his finger under Chi Lian's chin with a mocking smile and leaned down to peck her lips.
While inspecting the camp and drilling the soldiers, Sun Xia also heard these rumors and had no choice but to find Han Zhong to explain the situation.
"The General of Heaven says word has come from Luoyang that Lu Zhi has been imprisoned and Dong Zhuo has been appointed to take his place," the messenger whispered.
Lin Hao could not help but laugh. Aren't they just two dogs of the Bai family? Their master had already been beaten by him; what kind of waves could these puppies possibly make?
Worried that his wife would scold him again, Teacher He only took a few hurried glances before returning it to her immediately.
The man in black said, "Trying to escape? Not so easy!" He unleashed a sword technique, causing one blade to split into six. Before Bai Qiu could flee, all six swords struck, piercing his body through.
However, Lin Sen did not know that this box of patent medicine was not a direct purchase by a patient as it usually was.
Fortunately, it was a close call. If he could trade the price of a fright for the self-destruction of one of the Chimera Ant Royal Guards, it was an incredibly profitable deal... Just as Naraku was thinking this, the pupils of her eyes, fixed on the bottom of the crater, suddenly constricted.
When Ning Ke finally woke up the next morning, her first reaction was to check her own pulse. Knowing that her unborn child might not be safe, her expression grew even colder.
They had never heard of any "analyzing rules"; they were completely bewildered by what the examining disciple had said.
Zhu Tianyu's subtle movement did not escape Qin Yun's sharp eyes. He was very curious about what had transpired between the Marquis of Beihai and the sister of the Marquis of Bishui.
It was hard to say for sure, but for the sake of long-term stability, allowing a prince with little capability to hold power would certainly be a good thing.
Xue Shangqing knew his opportunity had arrived. Even if Fu Qianqian did not fancy him, it would be just as well if he could win the favor of his father-in-law.
"You won't talk, then die!" Qin Yun bellowed. As he finished, his terrifying dragon claw stomped toward the head of the Black Water Profuse Snake. Had that foot landed, the creature's entire skull would have shattered in an instant.
Duan Hongcheng also stared blankly at the golden booklet, his eyes filled with intense greed.
Shen Muran's violence was unimaginable. Ling Zhengdao considered himself a tough man, but even he went weak in the knees before her.
Tang Xue, standing beside Chen Haoran, wore a look of astonishment, and the special forces soldiers hidden within the estate also looked grim.
The man looked at her delicate appearance and found it hard to believe, but there was no helping it; no one else had signed up except for her.
The monster subordinates behind him all shut their mouths, not daring to utter a word for fear that one wrong syllable would displease their leader and result in them being turned into a pile of ash.
After circling the island, Hou Liangping was proven right: this barrier was a spherical egg, a defense with no blind spots in any direction. Getting inside was simply impossible.
