54 Mustard Seed

The second older brother often wondered in secret: if the day of cracking down on organized crime ever came, would Chen Haibo turn his spear around and bite back without regard for old ties?

Seeing Li Xiaoyi's dejected expression, Zheng Zha remained silent. Instead, he slowly stood up and looked into the distance. Suddenly! A surging aura erupted from his body! The explosive shockwave even shattered the ground beneath them! Li Xiaoyi had to activate his genetic lock just to steady his body, while Zheng Zha's voice rang out once again.

Just as the two sides were about to collide once more, a chilling aura suddenly swept over them! In an instant, a white figure flew right between the two of them.

Besides, over all these years, they had been completely modernized by modern technology and had lived strictly human lifestyles, which made them firmly believe that monogamy was the only righteous path.

Seeing the figure flying toward him like a cannonball, Li Xiaoyi, as an ally, naturally could not stand by idly. He leaped forward and caught Roya's body to cushion the impact. However, he did not launch a counterattack; anyway, any skill would simply be deflected by Mosa, so there was no need to waste energy. Besides, he knew that Mosa did not seem intent on finishing them off at the moment.

Anxious to get out of the forest and enter the basin, the team could not even spare time for lunch, making do with dry rations as they walked and ate. This was, of course, Zhunovsky's idea. He now seemed to have completely replaced Victor's position, directly issuing commands.

Mosa smiled again and gently touched her face, while Ye Zhu did not even dare to take a deep breath. At that moment, however, a greenish figure came stumbling over.

Right at that instant, a black sedan suddenly turned in from the street corner and stopped dead in the middle of the road, as arrogant and overbearing as the person sitting inside it.

Yet during the movement, Lin Yuan inevitably brushed against Yue Lengshuang's magnificent curves. The soft sensation felt like an electric shock to Lin Yuan. He had always considered his self-control to be quite strong, but in the face of the current situation, his willpower proved utterly fragile.

Because Moxi was injured and could not eat spicy food, Yin Ruojun spent the entire meal picking out mild, vegetarian dishes for her. Actually, this task was supposed to belong to Peng Yu, but since Yin Ruojun snatched it away, Peng Yu simply focused on eating obediently.

Long Fengyun immediately assigned roles, distributing tasks scientifically. As the two armies clashed, the generals designated by Long Fengyun each led a troop of elite cavalry to charge directly at their targeted enemy commanders.

To her, Lin Yuan was nothing more than a complete stranger, and at this, Tang Yingmin could no longer hold back.

Speaking of which, he had only himself to blame for letting the two of them go out alone while forgetting to remind them not to flash their wealth. Of course, he had trusted in their abilities, but he had underestimated the ruthlessness of criminals.

Yet they were all law-abiding citizens, and it was impossible for them to take matters into their own hands against Wang Kun; otherwise, even if Wang Kun had nine lives, he would have already been sent off to the netherworld by now.

The fan-shaped formation on the flanks was designed to alleviate pressure on both sides while also serving a protective role. It provided the two main commanders in the center with a stable output space, allowing them to focus entirely on hunting down targets ahead without worrying about the safety of the flanks.

Because the leader of the Eagles harbored a sub-parasite and was controlled by the mother parasite, even truth serum proved entirely ineffective.

Lin Yuan engraved this kindness in his heart. In the future, if he obtained sufficient medicinal herbs, he could consider refining pills and sending them to Daoist Xuanqing.

"Is that so? How come I have no idea?" Wu Luan said with an indifferent attitude, clearly disbelieving a single word of what Lin Xuan had said.

"Let's fight to the death!" I gave a muffled roar in my heart. Rather than sitting idly and waiting to die, it was better to make one desperate gamble. Seizing a moment when the man was not paying attention, I raised my gun and pulled the trigger straight at him.

Having nothing better to do today, Qian Yifei felt like going in to check out the commotion and see what kind of scam syndicate could possibly survive in this agricultural market for so long.

Qiu Yan was deep in conversation with an acquaintance when he suddenly noticed a subtle shift in the atmosphere of the lobby. He turned his head and saw Xiao Tian and Han Luo surrounded by a large group of people.

Yang Qingqing instantly grew nervous. To raise a cold-hearted son like Yang Jin, their parents must surely be a vicious, shrewish mother and a stern old man.

"Pfft, I'd say you were born to marry the crown prince, let alone the fourth prince," another person sneered sarcastically.

Yet she was so oblivious to her own status that she actually forced Yin Yiting to fire Qingxiu from Leiting Group.

When Qian Yifei and the others arrived at the bar, it was only a little past ten o'clock, but the venue was already packed with people, and the atmosphere was exceptionally lively. A waiter led Qian Yifei and his group to a table and seated them.

When Ling Feng walked over and forced Shang Zhigang's mouth open, half of Iwai Eiichi's ear had already been bitten off, and blood was gushing out like a fountain.

"It was too crowded and inconvenient to ask during the banquet, but now you can tell this prince: where did you come from, and what is your name? The more detailed, the better." Jinghan stopped walking, turned to face Yun Zi, and asked with utmost seriousness and solemnity.

I found it quite strange: since life here was so peaceful and comfortable, why on earth was Fifth Ming still thinking about making investments?

The two of them conversed for a little over a minute—not a terribly long duration, yet subtly exceeding the boundaries of ordinary pleasantries. Afterward, the eldest prince stated that he had matters to attend to and was forced to take his leave. Before departing, however, he left Xiaqi with an invitation card, welcoming Xiaqi to visit his mansion as a guest.

"Did I survive?" Ikaros raised her head in a daze, gazing at the orange-red glow before her.

Although Xiaqi was not someone who pursued luxury, after moving in, he immediately felt a wave of comfort. Eliza's home had no fireplace, and now that autumn had arrived, Xiaqi, who had suddenly returned to the northern climes from a tropical desert, genuinely felt a bit chilly.

Hearing the other party put it that way, he understood. Ikaros had witnessed Xiaqi's exceptional concealment skills and felt that such an ability would be immensely helpful to her, which was why she had spoken up.

When they first met, the two of them certainly could not stand each other, but as time passed, Li Lin and Loki eventually forged a solid friendship.

Furthermore, He Qiuming was a master skilled in crafting magical artifacts. It was said that many high-ranking officials in the country even wore peace talismans personally crafted by He Qiuming around their necks to ward off misfortune.

Life is like a wave, rising and falling; it always plunges headlong just when things are at their best, and yet turns around at the peak just when things are at their worst. There is no such thing as perpetual plainness; if your days are entirely without ripples, it means you are either standing still or gathering energy for the next surge of waves.
