Thirty-two thousand and thirty-two

Xu Guangqi waited for a moment, but seeing that the Chongzhen Emperor remained entirely unresponsive, he understood the Emperor’s intent. His heart grew colder still, yet he felt compelled to continue.

Lei Xiu certainly did not understand so many Earth-based physical terms, and Feng Jun did not grasp them well either, but he could clearly see that Lei Xiu’s study of lightning was formidable—in some aspects, it even surpassed the technological level of the Earth.

Scratching his head, he could not figure out how this had happened. But since it was back, that was all that mattered; he only wondered which fellow had finally found a conscience. Having stolen it, they had actually returned it to him.

On the other end of the phone, Qi Yanmo did not ask why; he only asked where she was. Su Nian’an reported her location, and shortly after, Qi Yanmo arrived.

Once Qiu Xuan began to develop his own influence, it was inevitable that he would incur the suspicions of Ye Xiao. Qiu Xuan knew clearly that although he was a master of the Nine Heavens, it was only his personal strength that Ye Xiao valued. Those in power would never wish to see forces under their command that they did not fully control.

"I have to head out for a while, and I’m not sure how long it will take, so I wanted to let you both know," Qiu Xuan said with a serious expression, pretending not to notice their bruised and swollen faces.

My mind felt on the verge of collapse. I tore the invitation into shreds and tossed them into the air. Yuan Lei was marrying the Ghost King’s son. She had left me—truly left me behind.

Look at the Donglin Faction, the most powerful group in the Ming Dynasty today; if not for the backing of the Fan family, could they have reached their current position?

Then, these parents started blaming the software. If I were to talk about this, I could go on for ten chapters and still not finish; those who know, know.

Hearing Niu Jiaming suddenly speak this way, both men’s knees went weak, and they immediately knelt to beg for mercy. Having heard of Niu Jiaming’s ruthless reputation, they were filled with both regret and terror. They realized they should never have posted that thread, only to provoke this terrifying figure.

Chen Xu gently twisted the eight silver needles, moving from shallow to deep. With each level of insertion, he rotated the needles nine times before withdrawing them to the shallow layer, repeating the process incessantly.

"Damn it!" The person on the other end must have hung up. Lu Yao, in a fit of rage, smashed his phone onto the ground. The poor device, subjected to the violent impact, was reduced to smithereens.

"Huaiming and I are old classmates. You call him Uncle and me Big Brother? That messes up the generation gap," Guo Zhenwei said while driving.

Unexpectedly, while the performance was indeed a spectacle—grand in scale and bizarre in plot—the drama was far too short. Including the dialogue, the whole affair lasted barely a minute.

"Brother Su, don't ask me; it's my first time seeing this too," Fang Jin said with a grave expression. As he watched the black mist surrounding Huyan Ao thicken, the surrounding vegetation began to show signs of withering.

Although he did not recognize the little red booklet or know what the "Third Division of Special Operations" was, he had heard that the nation possessed secret organizations unknown to the public. Most of these groups were licensed killing machines, and even if they took a life, they would not be held accountable for any crime.

Everyone’s gaze turned hazy, for what met their eyes was a massive mountain gate, and on the plaque above it were three large characters: "Remnant Sun Sect."

"Hehe, don't worry, what could possibly happen to me? I just didn't expect to encounter such a peculiar plot today," Ye Weitian said faintly, his eyes flickering as he watched Zhao Jingwen and Chen Xu walk away.

"We are going to meet a powerful authority figure from another school to recruit him into our faction," Zhuang Mei said. Unlike her rigid demeanor during the meeting, she now appeared as radiant as sunlight, so brilliant it made me unable to keep my eyes open.

Whenever Ye Mu exerted energy to resist, the blood on his body would seep out through his pores, only to rapidly fuse into the man before him. With each fusion, the blood-red light on the man would ripple, and the power of his attacks would grow ever stronger.

I used to think this boss was a decent person, but today he revealed himself to be a common thief. However, today’s events only accelerated his demise, for I feared that if he got into trouble, he would betray me. He was the first life I had on my conscience.

Now that Chen Weidong had become their son, Gao Nanxing, and given that he was the boyfriend of Tang Zhenhua’s good friend Yingzi, Tang Zhenhua was inclined to give him a helping hand.

Christina’s gaze was calm; Eleonora could not see a hint of mockery within it.

Xia Feng had just arrived in the secret realm; how could he possibly know about the earthquake that occurred thirteen years ago? Yet, to avoid exposing his ignorance, he nodded nonetheless.

Even if his cultivation was suppressed to the early stage of a Profound Immortal, the reduction in his physical strength was minimal, which made him feel that eliminating Jiang Ning would be no problem at all.

At the time, Er Lengzi’s mother did not think much of it, assuming her son had finally come to his senses. After Er Lengzi fell into a deep sleep, she also went to bed to rest.

Should she tell her grandmother, Granny Yin? But she feared that if she spoke, Granny Yin would no longer let her play on the back mountain. If she didn't say anything, she felt this whole matter was suspicious and wondered if it might be to her disadvantage.

Take Ye Mu, for example: a single word from him could cause a company’s stock to soar or plummet. You might say the retail investors shouldn't bother analyzing anything else; they’d be better off analyzing Ye Mu’s personal preferences. If he happened to be in a good mood and took a liking to a company, its stock would skyrocket.

Wei Shichong gritted his teeth, hurriedly reached out to take two spirit talismans, spat blood onto them to activate them, and fired them toward the location where Yi Tian was standing.

Li Jingwen hesitated, wondering how the other party knew. Thinking they might have overheard her talking to the waiter earlier, she dismissed her doubts. However, mindful of her boss's instructions, she wanted to refuse, but Mother Liu pulled her toward the corner table.
