Chapter 224: First Order Delivered, One Million Reincarnation Points!

If in the past Qi Long’s collaboration with Li Chang'an had been driven merely by the philosophy that more friends meant more paths, the Gu family’s repeated provocations had, ironically, made him far more invested in these few transactions.

One had to understand that the Gu family was among the pinnacle Reincarnator clans possessing the technology to manufacture particle beam cluster cannons, commanding at least twenty percent of the entire military-industrial market.

Before such a colossal family, a modicum of ordinary profit was negligible.

Once dressed and washed, stepping out of the room made me feel as though I had returned to the very beginning, to those days when Ouyang Zhi, if he woke early, would prepare breakfast for me before heading off to school; it all felt like yesterday, a full circle that brought me back in the end.

The words left unsaid were that, were it not for the fact that he was the man loved by her sister, she would have beaten him so hard he would be searching for his teeth on the ground.

Having lived for so many years with half a foot already buried in the earth, it finally dawned on me that one must never judge people through a tainted lens.

It was not merely because of the eeriness of the laughter, but primarily because Boss Jin found the sound intimately familiar.

Subsequently, he went to the Pavilion of Seven Treasures to inquire about the exotic flames, yet such flames were rare commodities that required immense fortune to encounter; moreover, any available for purchase were bound to be inferior, as the finer specimens would undoubtedly be reserved for personal use.

"Boom!" No sooner had the words fallen than the crowd heard a sudden explosion emanate from within that semi-circular iron canopy, deafening as a clap of thunder.

This illness ebbed and flowed for an entire month, until one day my mother rushed in, frantic and weeping beyond consolation.

Hearing me speak thus, Tang Xiao stared intently at me for a long time. Only after ensuring I harbored no other thoughts did she nod suspiciously, turning around with Wang Shirou to silently strip the garments from Xu Yinuo, piece by piece.

Though the scheme itself could hardly be called brilliant, for this fellow to strike so ruthless a blow against his own territory proved him to be a formidable soul indeed.

In truth, his raising of this question filled me with a creeping dread, for I feared he might press Shang Ruyu regarding my relationship with the Zheng family.

She did not ask Luther why he did not open the diary to take a look, but silently accepted the decision instead.

"Of course, but it is easier said than done. Though Meluo County and our Taidang County both belong to the Great Wu Empire, one is a county of Anning and the other of Changning, falling under the rule of different feudal lords. You are not unacquainted with Fatty You's influence; we cannot openly break with him." Su Jun shook his head, uttering a sigh.

Though Su Jun remained the General Who Stabilizes the North, he had become the de facto Prefect of Taidang County, the supreme commander of its military forces, and the youngest prefect in the history of Anning.

Presently, humanity still occupied the greater part of the Earth's landmass, yet the wilderness beyond the cities had ceased to be safe.

Tang Wan laid her phone aside after answering the call, having no intention of going; their relationship was mediocre at best, and a sudden request to pick someone up clearly smelled of mischief.

Furthermore, there were numerous rare and exotic beasts here, creatures unseen within the Eight Provinces and the Central Province.

At that moment, Jiang Shiyi’s phone vibrated once more; he cast his eyes down at the caller ID, then glanced back toward Jiang Chengsi.

Pei Ji harbored a certain obsession with becoming the Prime Minister, a fixity of purpose that grew only more unyielding given his family's low social standing.

Legend had it that when the Muslim trebuchets assaulted the city of Xiangyang, the Song forces who had defended it for six years could endure no longer, and many generals scaled the walls to surrender.

Xiao Chen also took note of the medical department chief's expression, a smile of disdain breaking across his own features.

The moment the Wave-Calming Talisman was restored to its place, the water level surrounding the entirety of Qinyue Island dropped by a noticeable margin.

Under Fufeng's influence, the disciples of Cloud-Piercing Peak had nearly all transformed into half-human, half-demon monstrosities, frantically swarming the intruders.

The countenances of Shen Manyu’s parents shifted slightly, as though they felt her reaction showed a distinct lack of respect for them.

Lin Qiyang could never have imagined that he would be roommates with Zhao Dabao, whom he had met just this morning, their beds arranged right next to each other.
