Volume One, Chapter 65: The Investor Is Almost Here

Su Tong gave Mo Tianming a meaningful smile. "It seems Mr. Mo has thought of something."

After He Changqing's voice faded, Xia Feng couldn't help but ask, "Just a raft to venture out to sea? Isn't that far too risky? If the waves surge, wouldn't they be doomed to perish beneath the ocean?"

Just as the flaming beast was about to be struck, it dodged aside, then opened its giant maw and unleashed a torrent of fire, instantly engulfing the entire icy shadow.

The giant eagle landed outside the town, and Shen Fei noticed that the vehicle depot not only housed giant eagles and carriages, but also featured griffins—those legendary creatures. With the body and claws of a lion, the head and wings of an eagle, they were robust and majestic.

Directly facing the entrance stretched a dense forest so vast its boundaries were invisible. Gu Jianan flew skyward using the Airborne Technique, and even at a great height, the edge of the forest remained unseen—a breathtaking sight.

Gao Hongfei was indeed muttering to himself. He had escaped the whirlpool of Hongshan Town, and there was a chance he might be transferred to work in another county or city. For him, it was almost like being reborn. Yet why did it feel as though the starting point was already fraught with troubles?

Fan Zeng raised his eyelids and glanced at Long Qie, then continued to rest with his eyes closed, displaying the demeanor of a lofty master, completely unconcerned by the shift in atmosphere.

The token shone brightly, overpowering the lights. Bai Qi brought out the prepared cube; before he could throw it, the cube was drawn like a magnet, slowly drifting toward the dark matter. Threads of purple gas seeped from the dark matter, as if resisting the cube's encasement.

This was merely a transitional period. Mo Qiantao was not worried about a lack of customers. Instead, Guan Yao appeared especially impatient, her expression tinged with agitation.

But Mo Qiantao did not wish to stay in the capital. As long as Wu Muyun was present, nowhere felt safe to her; if discovered by Wu Muyun, it might even implicate the Xiao family.

Spiritual energy began to gather around Gu Yuanbei, drawing Gu Jianan's curious gaze.

At the entrance, two groups had started hurling insults at each other. One group kept banging their iron rods against the school's retractable gate, causing a constant clanging.

Anran kept admitting her fault to Mrs. Zhou—not just to ease her anger, but out of genuine belief that she had been wrong.

Crossing strands of fire crackled across the desert, causing several desert stone lizards to howl in agony before turning to ash.

That shouting drew a crowd of students to observe. They saw the new security guard—so imposing, completely different from the lazy ones before.

In his previous life, Li Xu had witnessed the devastating power of tornadoes on Earth—their destructive force was immense. He guessed that the full strength of a Grand Immortal's strike was probably no more than that.

After the punishment ended, Hu Xinlei rested his hands on my and Zheng Hao's shoulders, panting heavily as he complained to us.

"Yes, now that there's time, matters in the village have nearly been settled at the village chief's house today," Xu Yiming said, though he didn't mention the follow-up regarding Tong Tong and the treasure.

"If that's the case, I can offer you a suggestion." Gu Zhao pursed his lips, uncertain whether he should share the news. Quite a few people had fallen because of this matter, which led to the second southern inspection by the leadership, culminating in a speech that drew worldwide attention and stabilized the party's morale.

But just as Deng Lei assumed Xu Yiming was timid and afraid to speak, Xu Yiming's next words left him utterly astonished.
