Chapter 52: Live Broadcast, the Innocent Need No Defense

"My father-in-law?"
Chen Xing suddenly felt as if he had fallen into a gigantic trap.
The entire Su family seemed to be plotting against him.
"This paper by Su Dongcheng, upon publication in America's most prestigious mathematical journal, caused a tremendous sensation at the time. One might say that Su Dongcheng's immense standing both at home and abroad..."
Of course, the closest earthquake in the future occurred in Gansu in 1654, which was rather distant in time, while the Great Earthquake of the 18th year of Emperor Kangxi's reign—that is, the one in the Imperial Capital in 1979—was even further back in time.
In truth, Ouyang Lanru did not genuinely want Jessica to quit the entertainment industry. For people of their tier, the other person's profession was not actually important; as long as their character was good and they sincerely loved Li Mingqiu, that was enough, not to mention that the two families were long-time family friends.
This condition sounded quite tempting, but its underlying intent was deeply malicious. The foundation of the Tianxin Legion lay precisely within the Shattered Star Domain and the Azure Sea Star Domain. All the soldiers' homes were here, and their loved ones were here; how could they abandon them and leave?
The strategist pondered intently, the expression on his face gradually growing solemn in accordance with the depth of his thoughts.
Before the call could even connect, however, those three figures had already swept over in a flash. Wherever they passed, battleship after battleship exploded with a roar, sending splattering arcs of fire everywhere.
Only, neither An Liang nor the others noticed that upon hearing the name "Long Qi," Jun Mowu, who was in the middle of picking up some food with her chopsticks, suddenly suffered a tremor in her hand and almost accidentally knocked over her teacup.
Never had she imagined that just as the phantom was about to materialize and establish its Dao, a sudden anomaly occurred once more. Xiuxiu only felt her vision go black, stepping without any warning into a world of dreams.
"To tell you the truth, your father here used to counter-calculate heavenly secrets and indeed has only a few days left to live. I never expected this anthropomorphic Taisui to extend my lifespan by a few more years."
Despair is a luxury. If there is no hope at all, then there isn't even despair, and that would truly be the end.
The defense turret's energy finished recharging instantly, and several beams of energy light immediately struck its hull.
Qin Liang let out a cold snort, executed an instant transmission to appear right in front of the old man, and stomped down hard on his ankle.
"Ye Fei, we're not seriously going to climb down from here, are you?" To be honest, looking down below, He Hui had truly turned coward.
Tang Rao was currently at the peak of the later stage of Upper Deity. Even if he fought opponents above his realm, at most he could take on ten or eight of them. With thousands or tens of thousands of foes, such a massive numerical disparity was simply not something an ordinary person could handle.
At this moment, Feng Hanxu had already attained the Great Perfection realm of the Supreme Patriarch of the Sect, appearing as though he might achieve the status of an Immortal Dao Sovereign at any moment. Yet, the look he cast toward Ji Tian was still filled with utter contempt.
He had always been a high-and-mighty scion of a noble family. It had always been him bullying others, and never had anyone bullied him; naturally, he could not comprehend such a matter.
"That was in the past; I don't like it anymore!" Ju Juan tried her best not to recall things from the past.
Back then, he was merely an official in charge of reviewing films at the station. It was precisely because he was bold enough to relax the censorship standards—and because each time, the viewership ratings soared like a rainbow—that it led to his step-by-step promotion.
"Aji, Axi, you two leave first." After finishing off He Kaoshan, Jin Muyang waved his hand with a smile.
At this time, having passed through the trial of the Sage's remnant intent, the Four Swords of诛仙 (Zhu Xian) had returned to their original appearance. Although their might was still severely impaired and far from the full glory of the Primordial Era, facing the three Supreme Patriarchs including Ji Emperor Tian, Ji Tian reckoned the sword array's power would suffice.
"Nonsense! This Prince has never been married to this day; where would I have any offspring?" Prince Li feigned great anger. Even though Western Consort was fearful, her expression remained calm and smiling as she met his gaze head-on.
"It won't disturb your meeting, will it, County Magistrate Zhao?" Before everyone present, Yi Huarong maintained the proper respect due to Zhao Zhengce.
Mu Lin pondered for a long time yet still could not figure it out, but knowing his temper, she changed the subject and asked, "How on earth did you befriend Crown Prince Chen Bai Moge?" Xi Suo briefly explained.
