Chapter 49 I Arranged It
Seeing Ye Ruo meticulously searching through the carcasses of a few Earth-Tail Spirit Wolves just for their spirit cores, he had assumed that Ye Ruo was somewhat financially strapped.
Having a young maiden of the Mandate Descendants accompany him for breakfast—such a standard was naturally exceptionally high! Lu Qizhen understood this very well. She also understood that this was Ye Ruo's way of making up for not being able to share breakfast with her.
"The explosive development of modern crystal brains and spirit-net technology has made the deep scanning of the human mind and the complete digitization of the soul entirely possible. I believe that with conscious guidance and cultivation, it won't be long before the human soul can completely break free from the limitations of the brain, residing entirely within specially designed bionic microchips."
Zhao Dong'er was angry, though not at Ye Ruo, but rather at those people who previously had nothing to do with her yet now jumped out to obstruct the matters between her and Ye Ruo.
Given the current level of Hu Jing's destiny marks, no matter how talented she was, she simply could not perform when facing such an opponent.
She stood there with a heart full of gentleness and joy, gazing through the office window at Ye Ruo conducting a meeting, completely captivated and lost in a trance.
However, if the opponent was inherently a strange person skilled in dancing with snakes and churning miasma, or commanding insects and manipulating rodents, why bother conjuring up illusions of snakes, insects, and rodents? Were they simply there to cheer and wave flags for the enemy?
Lü Bu did not hear Cao Xing's murmuring words at this moment; his entire focus was riveted on the upcoming showdown against the force of Yuan's troops led by Qu Yi, because he knew very well that he only had three thousand men under his command.
Li Yao settled his chaotic mind, gently throwing punches to test his striking power and wind-breaking speed while simultaneously surveying his surroundings.
The birthday banquet was imminent, and noble guests and envoys from various countries had already arrived at the palace in advance. The Empress had ordered a separate courtyard to be cleared within the palace grounds specifically for the guests to reside in.
Wen Shuyun had previously focused her entire mind on the child, and only now did she recall that Gan Yu seemed to have been there at the time as well.
"I helped you too, why aren't you thanking me?" Before You Zhaodi could finish speaking, Gu Shiyi emerged from some corner, his gaze fixed unblinkingly on Yu Danggui.
Even when the traffic police arrived and inspected the traffic conditions, it turned out that Zhang Ying had swerved and crashed into the curb just to avoid an elderly grandmother crossing the street. The front of the BMW had also sustained minor damage.
Finally securing her place in ninth position, Hu Tian's performance was also quite impressive, ranking two spots higher than Bai Shuyun at seventh place.
Since there were no particularly special scenes, just some large-scale explosion sequences, the shooting techniques were relatively straightforward.
Perhaps Xuan Chen's true intention lay elsewhere, and he was merely using Hu Yun as a smokescreen to investigate the matters surrounding Hu Tian?
After taking over the military camp, the soldiers began to celebrate, while a solitary carriage stood quietly in a corner, looking rather desolate.
This towering, mountain-like chieftain had originally been furiously searching for a way to break the "evil arts" before him and fiercely beat up the young man not far away.
That's right, he had indeed "spoken wildly" earlier, asking Zhao Qiu Shi to help inquire whether he could be promoted directly to associate dean.
He Bai was startled, exchanging glances with Fu Xing and Cheng Zhang. At a time like this, for someone to still address him as Deputy Commander He, could it be those dozens of cavalrymen who had escaped from the Youbeiping White Horse Yi Cong army? He Bai hurriedly spurred his horse backward, closely followed by Cheng Qi and Yu Hua.
Yet now that he wielded absolute power, there were certain things he could do for her, if only to make things a little easier on his own conscience.
"Everything is for the sake of the realm. If you want to blame someone, blame her for trusting the wrong person and happening to run into me. Blame her for being too foolish as well—she didn't require any grand schemes, she simply handed everything over on a silver platter," Qiu Tian said, refusing to show weakness. He endured the agonizing pain in his heart; that child was destined to be the eternal scar of his lifetime.
Even under severe injuries, Grandmaster Ning Zongwu had still risked his life for the empire and the Emperor to intercept and kill Li Ruhai, even losing an arm in the process.
Fortunately, Tong Xuepian finally understood. Chu Xin breathed a sigh of relief—as long as she didn't sabotage things at a critical moment, the opportunity was too rare to miss.
Then who on earth could she be? Hehe, wasn't she simply that Li Ling'er? Because if it were Empress Zhuangsu, given her fiery temperament, how could she ever stoop to doing something so stealthy?
A strong gale swept past, carrying with it a dense fog reminiscent of the mist encountered at Longkong Mountain. It disrupted spiritual sense exploration, making it very difficult for them to assess their surroundings through the fog, though they had ways to resolve this issue.
As he made his inquiry, Nalan Renjie and the others from the four major families immediately shifted their gazes to Elder Black Cat, as if awaiting his approval.
Guo Daxian issued a rapid succession of orders, yet the chaotic and disorderly bandits crossing the bridge possessed none of the discipline of the Taiyuan Commandery troops; for a moment, they were all stunned, utterly bewildered by the situation.
Pulling up the recording revealed the crime scene at a glance: a red Santana drove past Tang Jing and Bajie, stopped one kilometer away, gestured back and forth with a half-cab American driver, and then drove off again—and that very half-cab was the vehicle that had knocked down Zhu Xiaojie.
"Auntie, I really disturbed you today. I'll come back another day to conduct the interview." Ye Rong bowed and departed, with Shiraishi Mai closely pursuing him.
The consequences?! Hearing his lowered voice and the ambiguity in his phoenix-like eyes, Qin Tianyue felt a mild headache coming on. Oh no, she felt like she was becoming infected by it too.
That classmate in the next lane really poured every last ounce of explosive energy into those final few meters, nearly causing Pei Qing to stumble.
Saitama Asuka suppressed the lingering panic in her heart, first questioning her parents before turning to torment her second older brother, Saitama Chidori.
Ye Rong smiled at her with schadenfreude, causing Kanna Hashimoto to feel both depressed and amused enough to laugh out loud.
Wujie stared in sheer curiosity at that patch of cave wall, raising his hand to touch the spot where the blood-colored rainbow had been swallowed up.
Before Joshua went up, Gu Zheng was still wondering whether the tactic of using prohibited substances might damage Mike's image, but it wasn't a fatal flaw.
Catarina was also well aware of the gravity of the situation. If such crucial information had to be relayed to them by the police or prosecutors, what justification was there for her existence as an investigator?
