Volume 1, Chapter 44: Helping Them Along the Way

It was in the dusk a few days later that Wang Xiquan was abruptly struck by the grim news of his dismissal.

For some reason, they always hoped a mocking voice would suddenly ring in their ears, followed by laughter and a drawn-out tone, ridiculing them all for having too much idle time on their hands and secretly watching him sleep.

Kill! Kill! Kill! The moment this ghostly figure emerged, spectral Qi surged all around and murderous intent boiled over. Everyone felt a boundless, violent killing aura rolling toward them, causing their hearts to leap and their hair to stand on end before they could even react. The ghostly figure leaped into the air, its sharp claws like hooks, and lunged viciously at the crowd.

"That kind of thing won't happen," Li Qing said indantly. He naturally knew what Lan Ruoli was referring to. Lan was afraid that after fusing with the divine soul within his body and awakening the memories of his past life, his personality would undergo a drastic change, which was why he had spoken those words to them while fully conscious.

"Absolute Immortal Heavenly Spirit Grass—that is what you cultivators call it. Only the people here call it White Leaf Grass..." Yushang said softly.

With an unchanging expression yet a turbulent heart, Leng Ran averted her gaze and said nothing, whereupon drowsiness washed over her in waves.

First, Ye Fei used the large-screen equipment in Ye Cangchun's villa guest room to contact Jack. Jack immediately encrypted the communication and transferred it to Emily. Moments later, a response came from the other end.

Another functional zone was the guest area facing south, where numerous reporters and photographers sat in chairs.

Regardless of Lu Youjing's dejected appearance, the crowd actually believed what he said. The old servant imperceptibly shook his leg and lowered his head without a word.

"It's my turn." Hovering mid-air with a stern expression, the Fire Qilin had indeed looked down on the man slightly before, but contempt did not mean letting his guard down. He was well aware of Li Qing's objective: to resolve the matter in the shortest possible time and create a massive impact.

As the saying goes, many hands make light work. With such a massive population, it was hard for Blood Jade City not to prosper. Of course, a large population inevitably brought a complex mix of people from all walks of life, making the public security in Blood Jade City extremely chaotic.

Luo Yao was a phoenix by nature; how could she possibly be a sparrow? Moreover, the attitude Luo Xuan showed toward Luo Yao reflected, to a certain extent, the stance of the Luo family, so the banquet would undoubtedly be held.

One must know that Qin Junyan had always restricted her from drinking; how could he suddenly be so generous? It felt almost surreal to her.

Now that the Bai family had been raided and executed, not only did their million-in-wealth fall into Zhu Youjian's imperial treasury, but the iron mines of Maqiao Imperial Manor were also brought under the jurisdiction of the inner court.

A spirit beast at the Core Formation realm was something she could now handle. Having proven this point, how could she not be thrilled?

The outside world was buzzing with excitement. The actors of the Alliance had begun active engagement globally during this period—Yu Yan and his group in Asia, and Downey and his crew in Europe and America. The glory of the Alliance members was enough to make anyone green with envy.

"Hehe!" Chen Guo smiled at the middle-aged man while flashing a victory sign with her hand.

With things spelled out so clearly, how could Cai Xinqi not understand? Following Jiang Chun would ultimately bring harm to Yu Siyu, yet wasn't all of this also of Yu Siyu's own doing?

These three films already possessed a massive overseas fanbase, and Huayi's rallying cry was to establish an Eastern ultra-fantasy world and build a hundred-billion-dollar industrial chain.

The power of a "role model" is infinite. With the first failure acting like the pushing of the first domino, dozens of people instantly chose to give up.

The Divine Machine Camp was one of the three major elite guards of the Ming Dynasty, a special unit dedicated to firearms that pioneered the world's gunpowder-based troops, leading the Spanish musketeers by a full century.
