Chapter 122: The Story Never Unfolds as Expected

Kong Fan did not know how long he had been sitting inside the bright red bridal sedan.

His mobile phone and watch had vanished without a trace the moment he donned the groom’s robes. He could only sit in the pitch-black interior, counting silently to estimate the passage of time.

After counting to about twenty minutes, the sedan came to an abrupt halt.

Kong Fan was startled; the travel time was remarkably similar to the duration of a car ride to Dadu River.

Before he could ponder this further, the sedan curtain was suddenly lifted from the outside, revealing the matchmaker.

Chu Jianghe was taken completely by surprise by Chu Licheng’s sudden transfer; he had been entirely unprepared for it.

Yun Yang nodded. Both he and Chu Yin had escaped death by a hair’s breadth before arriving in Osa by sheer coincidence. Their combat suits had long since been rendered useless. Yun Yang did possess a dagger that could slice through iron like mud, but as it was the very weapon that had caused the death of the Heavenly King Luoshui, he generally avoided using it.

Come to think of it, the personalities of Yun Yang and Luoshui were quite different; Luoshui had been silent, aloof, and preferred to keep his thoughts buried deep within.

The various federations immediately began their intensive defense preparations, having no energy left to concern themselves with those overgrown insects.

Feng Ling was formidable. The giant vines whipped through space like a tempest sweeping away fallen leaves, smashing a line of mechanical warships into fragments. The ships exploded, turning into clusters of dazzling fireballs in the dark cosmos.

No sooner had Enya Lin-Ge finished speaking than Gale Lin-Ge started in alarm. Without hesitation, he unleashed a "Thorn Overgrowth" in the direction Enya pointed. In an instant, countless glowing green thorn vines erupted from the ground, covering an area of over ten meters around Luo Sheng.

One moment they thought the battle was over and were ready to call it a day to receive their commendations, and the next, their prisoner had transformed into an unstoppable, formidable foe. This shift left even a Gold-tier elite like Scarlett flustered, her instinct urging her to consult her partner, Luo Sheng, who had sensed the abnormality first.

Although he had already seen the current head of the Rothschild family approaching, the head of the Mellon family deliberately spoke these words in a loud voice.

Upon hearing the two men’s conversation, everyone’s expression shifted drastically. They were at a critical juncture in the war against the barbarians, and they desperately needed a large supply of food to reward the soldiers and maintain morale. If word of a grain shortage were to spread now, the entire situation would likely collapse instantly.

What puzzled his subordinates was that their captain—usually the most aggressive, loud-mouthed, and hot-tempered of them all—was now silent, looking utterly embarrassed and uncomfortable, his body even trembling slightly.

Dang's words did not make Duan Lang feel resentful; on the contrary, he admired his teacher for his willingness to take responsibility for his actions.

To find such a landscape in a place like this was truly enough to make one linger and forget to return.

A post titled "Dynamic Superman—The Hero of Us Common Folk!" spread rapidly across the internet.

"Hmph, you think you can leave? Stay right there!" The two Origin Warriors charged toward Liao Yun and Filding.

Suzuki Yuri’s identity was self-evident; she clearly had a powerful background. Given the massive incident in Tokyo last night, it stood to reason that they would have tracked the investigation to her, yet there was not a single stir.

"Alright, Sister Ling, sit down and rest for a moment. I have some good things here, why not have a taste?" Liang Dong laughed.

"Fallen Sword: Annihilation!" Lucifer roared. A massive black giant sword formed in mid-air, exuding a powerful aura. Under Lucifer’s control, it slashed fiercely toward Victorite. Seeing that he could not shake Victorite off, Lucifer had finally lost his patience.

Yet, now there was someone who wanted to be their "father"? Even in their confusion, they understood what being a "father" meant in the human realm.

When she looked up to see Li Haonan’s eyes fixed on her with a faint, mocking smile, and his expression darkening slightly, she realized too late that her previous reply had been far too eager. Her face fell, and she hurriedly picked up a piece of cod and stuffed it into her mouth.
