Ninety-six: A Banquet at the Court of Diplomatic Ceremonies

Facing the increasingly crystalized state of Redstone’s body, this was a grave threat to Xia Yi. Yet if there was any hope of undoing that crystallization, it seemed that in the Land of China, only the highly secretive organization known as Z6 might hold a clue.

The deputy squad leader of Class Five in the first year, Zhang Shuai, had been expelled for running naked, and Zheng Yu and Li Chen had even competed for the post of deputy squad leader.

At that time, discussion of the Empire of Ten Thousand Gods’ inhuman human experiments surfaced once again on some social forums and even in the mainstream media, and most of the speculation revolved around Sang Ruo’s abilities and his true identity. Many of those guesses had already come perilously close to the truth.

The man only felt the burning places on his body suddenly turn cool and soothing, very comfortable indeed.

The ghostly forms drifting around Sang Ruo’s body suddenly emitted shrill cries like evil spirits, so piercing they seemed capable of slicing through the heart.

The man had no objections and was easygoing enough to let Xu Zuoyan get into his car, then drove him to the front of the newspaper office before leaving.

The formation parted on both sides, and a young soldier stepped forward. He had a close-cropped haircut, a commanding appearance, and stood nearly six and a half feet tall.

Family influence: no ancient martial family, no ties to any ancient martial sect. The only relevant connection is that Li Chen’s paternal grandfather-in-law belongs to the Zhou family, a martial arts clan in Cloud City.

Having said this, the Little Old Miss of Mount Tian’s neck went slack, her head drooping as all sound ceased. Ye Feng was startled; when he reached out to support her, he only felt that the bones of her whole body had turned soft as cotton and collapsed inward. She was already dead.

Before this newly built Taoist temple, a place that should have been quiet and detached from worldly affairs, Li Dongsheng’s intervention had turned it into a living hell.

Beside the two of them stood a middle-aged man with a faint crease between his brows. His features bore some resemblance to Zhou Miaoling’s. His skin was not especially good, and he wore an old-fashioned Zhongshan suit, giving him a very ordinary appearance.

Advanced zombies no longer feared bullets. Unless large numbers of people fired machine guns together, they could not be killed. Even if a bullet struck the head, it would not cause any real damage to an advanced zombie.

The command center directly witnessed the entire process, and the data had already all been transmitted back beforehand. The readings gathered by Dong Hao’s detector provided highly important information.

“That Lihua Mountain City isn’t even as big as a county seat under the Great Ming. Right now, the island country is in terrible chaos, and I’m still a little uneasy about letting her and the child stay there,” Zhang Zhijie went on.

These reports bred a great deal of crime: why had you committed crimes and still lived so well? Why did we ordinary folk have to live such miserable lives?

“With Brother Nan, I have no voice at all. He doesn’t understand film; he only looks at whether it makes money. But sometimes certain films won’t make money, and even so they still have to be made,” Guan Ju said.

“This is absolutely fantastic news for the virtual reality world! With your help, we’ll definitely be able to build an even more powerful firewall!” Yang said.

Facing the officials’ abuse, Li Dongsheng turned a deaf ear. He did not want to hurl insults back; after all, he had only one mouth, how could he possibly outcurse so many people?

Just like when he had first married Su Jian’an, so long as she主动 kissed him once, his mood could improve for several days.

“Yue Wuhen, do you still remember how, seven years ago, your Asura Cult wiped out the entire Zhuque Manor?” an old man demanded.

Yan Yan had already stated her position, yet he still sat there in silence, drinking coffee, looking as though it had nothing to do with him.

“What disc?” Han Lianyi felt she was truly confused; she could not quite understand Han Ziye’s words.

“Wonderful! We can finally go home!” Su Nuo’s eyes flushed red with excitement as he wept tears of joy.

Let go? No, that man would not let go. In Jun Jinyan’s mind surfaced the words Ye Nanqing had spoken to him when he came to stand beside him just now.

“That was stolen from the Lin family!” When Lin Zhen finished saying this, Lin Yun suddenly felt an urge to rush over and beat the hell out of him. Was this bastard even human?

Is that so? Then... she wanted to protect him? The corners of his lips lifted slightly, and for once a faint smile appeared.

As this one zombie fell, the entire audience fell silent. After a brief stillness, a roar of cheers erupted like a tidal wave.

“Fine! I understand! Move us somewhere else! And take good care of my brothers while you’re at it!” Zuo Mao said with a smile.

“She was originally immortal and indestructible?” Su Ling did not quite believe it. In this world, could there really be a race that could not die?

After being beaten black and blue, his teeth nearly knocked out, he still had to apologize to the other side. That humiliation had nearly broken Kong Chenmo, but he knew that he had lost today and could only swallow it.

Su Wang and Xue Lingshuang looked at each other in silence for a moment, both faces flushed red, the atmosphere awkward to the extreme.

If she did not have a flying spirit artifact, then in the Innate Realm she would truly be in an invincible position, after all. No matter how powerful an attack might be, it still had to land to matter.

Of course, the reason Kuai Liang could win Liu Biao’s heavy trust was not merely because he came from the Kuai family; his own exceptional ability was also one of the reasons Liu Biao valued him so highly.
