Volume 1, Chapter 30: She Will Make Them Lovers for Life
Yun Qianqian drew every eye, and with Xie Yi accompanying her, the pair seemed a match made in heaven, standing out as the most radiant sight along the long street.
Ji Lin'an stood in the front of the line, his gaze fixed intently upon the beautiful couple.
Otherwise, if he were to lose his temper now, wouldn't he be letting everyone know that he had brought this misfortune upon himself by stubbornly clinging to the situation?
Along the way, Fatty Wang showered Lu Fei with compliments, even hailing him as Professor Zhang's most prized student. Despite some slight reservations about the fatty, Lu Fei still found the flattery quite gratifying.
Ruomeng had been present for the entire call with Xuan Mu. After hanging up, Yang Mu looked at Ruomeng with a contemplative expression, but Ruomeng merely offered a faint smile in return.
When the convoy reached a point eighteen kilometers from Changtai City, the entire group came to a halt at Lin Feng's request. Although the 77th Brigade was under the direct command of Brigade Commander Shi Lei, all his orders were dictated by the intelligence provided by the unit's most formidable "human radar."
Qin Ruo had refined over a dozen bottles, but he could not reveal them all; furthermore, he could not leave himself with zero points by using up exactly the right amount.
"I know, they want to kill me, but they have to be capable of it first. Don't worry," Qin Ruo said with a smile.
"Which words?" Pipa felt Xie Yunfei gripping her hand firmly, his eyes filled with such tenderness that, at this very moment, he was the only one in her sight; no one else could even enter her field of vision.
"I have practiced for less than three years, and I have already reached the Primary Control stage! You have spent over two thousand years only to reach the Intermediate Control stage! I see nothing in you worth being proud of!" Lu Fei struck, his movements just as fierce, his sharp words causing Zhang Han's sword-like brows to bristle.
At this moment, the Skeleton King had already summoned the banner, his mouth murmuring as if chanting some sort of incantation.
"Could the doctor perform the acupuncture himself? If this money is not enough, just name your price!" He was delighted, but Dilberti looked displeased, signaling the driver to set the handbag he was carrying onto the table.
Su Yang pondered for a moment before making a suggestion. He proposed withdrawing four infantry battalions, equivalent to an augmented regiment. This way, the main force of the guerrilla column would still remain in Xucheng, allowing them to respond even if the Japanese army seized the opportunity to launch an attack on the city.
However, before he could even lift his foot, a few black shadows suddenly darted out from behind him with a series of whistling sounds. Accompanied by a rush of subtle fragrance, he lost consciousness.
They were slightly different from the previous vengeful spirits; these three had distinct facial features, and apart from their bodies being formed of black mist, they were no different from ordinary people.
Yan Mingliang sat in the seat of honor, with Madam Yan on his right and Qi Heng on his left. Feng Youyue sat right next to Qi Heng, while Yan Muli took a seat beside Madam Yan.
Qi Shichen began to plan their future aloud, and seeing that Lin Keyu offered no rebuttal, he boldly took two steps forward and placed his hand on her shoulder.
The moment Ye Mo's voice fell, his black eyes, which had been looking down at Lin Zong, suddenly underwent a transformation. A brilliant golden hue gradually crept over them until it completely occupied his pupils.
"You're awake. Don't worry about me, I'm fine. That bastard's punch couldn't really do much to me." Although Li Cheng said this, his face remained slightly pale; yet, he spoke in this manner so that Ye Xing would no longer worry about him.
Furthermore, the tens of millions of players from the Ye family who had participated in the siege had been decimated; at this moment, fewer than ten million remained alive.
"That's right, this is the place! Let's head out and cross through that open space!" Huoya checked the area and took the lead, heading down first.
