Chapter 64 Terrible Yet Eager
Compared to Liang Zhixin who was way ahead of the pack, Chen Xing was much steadier.
His bike maintained a constant speed of eighty miles per hour.
He was getting a feel for the motorcycle.
Having had no prior practice or tuning with this particular machine, he needed time to get used to the controls and find his rhythm. These things could not be rushed. Fortunately, for a professional driver with extreme driving skills, all of this was just a piece of cake.

"You can try its timbre. It's made of rare thunder-wood, combining an ethereal quality with a crisp, resonant tone," Duanmu Yun suggested with a smile.
After changing his clothes, Shen Shaoheng waited for a long time. Seeing that Gu Xinyue had not returned yet, he draped a coat over his shoulders and went to look for her.
The handwriting on the third piece of paper obtained today was also beginning to blur, but the rule in the final clause remained clearly legible.
"Leader, I'm going to the post office to make a call and notify the village chief and the others, so they can prepare for the welcoming reception." With that, he darted off like an arrow released from a bow, too fast for anyone to stop him.
Su Tianlei, the name of the Su family's eldest uncle, was also the father of Su Quanlong, who had appeared at the martial arts tournament back then.
Upon receiving Bao Chao's plea for help, Duolong'a in the capital immediately mobilized all the troops under his command and set out to reinforce Bao Chao.
Hearing Ye Chen address her by the somewhat intimate name Yushan, a blush inevitably crept across Feng Yushan's face, making her look utterly adorable.
Just as Su Hang was making an impassioned speech to rally the soldiers, a messenger delivered news that the Taiping Heavenly Army was attacking the city.
A brilliant glow pierced the sky from the point of collision, burning with its final rays like the afterglow of a setting sun before slowly dissipating. The white light fused with a deep blue radiance, fading at its most dazzling moment.
Just then, a man appeared within the palace. He looked vastly different from the common folk outside; both his gaze and his movements possessed a distinct bearing, suggesting he had not been subjected to puppet sorcery.
"As long as his nutrition keeps up, living a few more years is completely out of the question," Benjamin said with great satisfaction, noting that this outcome was already exceptionally good.
If Scar and the others had simply abandoned him out of annoyance, that would have been one thing! What he feared most was that these two fellows would take a desperate gamble and simply finish him off, or throw him into the river to feed the fishes. That way, the two of them could inherit his properties on Taiping Street.
"Hmph! It's all Nangong Jing's fault. He made you take the Soul-Returning Pill, and now he's even using it to force you into marrying him," Bai Yi started grousing again.

However, this method would only show results over a long period. In the short term, achieving a substantial increase in factory output was clearly impossible.
Atop the peak, cries of surrender rose one after another, with nearly everyone expressing their allegiance to Liu Yiyi.
"Forgive me, Chief, for the offense!" Armor-D32 said with a proud smile, then instantaneously teleported back to his original position, snapping back into a straight, attentive posture.
Qi-fortune was the element valued above all else; as long as it could be amassed in large quantities, these losses were of little consequence.
Over the 1400-plus years that followed, Skasa meticulously cared for Dina's daily life, teaching her cultivation and magic, until a century ago when Dina successfully broke through to the Immortal Spirit Realm and inherited the position of the Dragon Clan's patriarch.
