Chapter 103: Buried in the Earth
After passing Swallowtail Pass, a few miles of riding brought them into the Liupan Mountains. Initially, there were wide paths maintained by mountain villagers and hunters, but these gradually narrowed into trails, eventually fading into barren slopes.
Once the party descended into the river valley, their warhorses could no longer maintain a gallop. Everyone was forced to dismount and lead their horses on foot. The horseshoes struck the stone banks, worn smooth by years of rushing water, creating a rhythmic clatter.
Nie Minghui drove a three-hundred-thousand-yuan Audi A4 at school, sporting gold-rimmed glasses and wearing nothing but designer labels. After she batted her eyelashes at him a few times, he took the bait.
The column was stretched thin, and those at the very back were already swallowed by the white, wintry world.
After consuming the True Essence Liquid, Bai Ziyue’s strength had increased significantly, which in turn amplified the power of his great divine abilities. Bai Ziyue felt a flicker of doubt, then involuntarily fixed his gaze on the spiritual power value.
The moment Xia An'an gripped the doorknob, he seized her wrist, dragged her toward him, and then shoved her forcefully onto the sofa.
As for the others, they were too terrified to speak, trembling as they watched the spectacle, waiting for Zhang Li to be soundly beaten by Hua Shao’s men.
Duanmu Fei’s eyes darted around, her mind filled with visions of her glowing, post-weight-loss self. Would Senior Brother Jun Yue look at her differently then? She looked down at the steak she was eating and felt a wave of regret.
Wang Hao’s expression was ghastly. He had been fired—truly fired. Why did he feel like he was about to vomit blood?
This was no laughing matter. They had already failed to impress the master earlier; they had better behave themselves now.
Gu Liqing was actually quite surprised. Although she hadn't known anyone in the circle before, in truth, it seemed as if they actually knew her.
This made Su Chen stand out, as his attire was, at best, ordinary even by the standards of Guangping City.
Because Hua Zi’s injuries were severe and he wouldn't be discharged anytime soon, Huang Jiaqi took leave from school to stay at the hospital and look after him.
Under such a violent bombardment, even a yak might not survive, let alone a mere human like Zhuang Ziming. Zhuang Ziming collapsed instantly, slumped against a storage locker. Kong Anping also fell to the ground, staggering backward, his body and face smeared with warm, fresh blood.
That’s right—it was he who had hired someone to torch the Imena factory, and he had also leaked various problems concerning the company to the public.
"Yes, sir!" Upon hearing this, the security captain did not think his boss was being cowardly. Instead, he felt that Aige was even more resourceful, low-key, and cautious, and he immediately felt a sense of awe.
"If you've got guts, stop blowing that annoying thing and fight me one-on-one!" Iron Rooster retorted, running for his life, desperate to escape the reach of Wang Kedan’s gourd.
He wanted not only to gather the fiery spirit of the scholars to suppress the evil site but also to use the academy to restrict the intrusion of cultivators.
Yang Fan was also astonished. Although he was not short of money, he hadn't expected a hospital stay to be this expensive.
"It is my honor to serve you, young master." Yue Wuxin was clever; she guessed at Dian Feng’s status as an outsider but kept silent to avoid offending him.
I have always disliked noisy environments, so upon hearing this clamor, I couldn't help but furrow my brow.
She spoke as she walked into the room and sat on the edge of the bed. Her actions were calm, yet I could see that she was actually very nervous, merely putting on a brave face.
