Volume One, Chapter 101: Yang Wanqing's Plea for Help

Qin Zhan’s gaze settled on her, his expression filled with a possessiveness she had never seen before. “Fat? I can barely see any flesh on you at all, especially around the waist. When your belly grows bigger and bigger later on, how will you bear it?”

The Taoist from Heavenly Gu had been startled by what he had seen and was already thinking of leaving, when a fierce gust suddenly came crashing down from above. Ambushed all at once, he did not panic. He raised the Heavenly Gu Primordial Devil Banner in his hand and, without looking back, swept it toward the treasure above.

The Lord of a Hundred Eyes drew his weapon to block. Both of them felt a jolt run through their bodies. It was the Star Lord of the Broken Army, though this Star Lord was still a little weaker than he was. The Lord of a Hundred Eyes felt no fear at all. With his right hand he shot out a hundred streaks of golden light at the Star Lord of the Broken Army, and with his left hand a hundred more toward the Star Lord of Assistance, intending to test this Star Lord of Assistance first.

In Gao Feng’s office, Gao Feng smiled and handed a cigarette to Luo Changhe. Luo Changhe hurriedly took out his lighter and lit Gao Feng’s first, then lit his own cigarette.

The White Bone Wolf Fang Club did not dodge or evade. It met those two black claws head-on in a merciless clash. One side relied on the weight of its weapon, the other on the depth of its magic power. Zhuang Wangu was forced to retreat slightly, though the Star Lord of the Big Dipper had gained the upper hand by a little, he too found himself feeling far from comfortable.

Long Guhong simply closed his eyes and sat cross-legged on a couch nearby to meditate. He let out a long breath and felt the struggle of energies within his body. Once again, he entered a very strange state.

Li Song had once declared beneath Mount Buzhou to the witches and demons: remain obedient in the Northern Continent, and I will ensure you come to no harm. If you dare stir up trouble again, I will not spare you.

The others, hearing the two speak in such an odd, mismatched way, all found it strange in their hearts, though none dared ask about it.

A tremendous roar, carried on layers of golden ripples, surged out from before that enormous maw with destructive force.

Ye Xin and You Yitian walked and talked as they went, but Ye Xin noticed that You Yitian looked sullen and dejected, as though he owed a great pile of debt. What on earth had happened to Brother Tian again? No matter how she thought about it, she could not make sense of it.

Watching Ye Jinghong busying himself, Long Kexin and Bi You exchanged a glance. These two immortals probably did not even have the wild survival skills this mortal possessed.

As soon as Lin Xi appeared in the starry void, he returned to his original appearance. He took one look at the dim starlight surrounding him; this was a galaxy of little value, with only a scant few habitable planets, and they seemed to be primitive worlds not worth developing, not even one spaceship in sight.

“Useless cowards!” Ye Gucheng said, his back to Wu Wei, as if he still knew exactly what Wu Wei was trying to do.

“Use your card. Also, I wanted to ask—can I buy out your supermarket directly?” Sun Rong took from her wallet a crystal card whose credit limit was unknown.

Swiss Bank believed the stock would keep rising, but Ding Yi had already decided to begin gradually reducing his holdings. The split-up of Microsoft had already been making a tremendous uproar, and Ding Yi was unloading such massive quantities at the same time. He truly feared the Nasdaq would collapse ahead of schedule.

Wang Ling was left stunned by Wang Ma’s words, unable to argue back at all... nor could he find any reason to, because what she said made a great deal of sense.

Tong Lian wore an expression of indignation. He looked up and first saw He Hui, and was momentarily stunned; then he noticed Tang Zhong in the driver’s seat and finally reacted. After starting the engine, he backed up and gave them a parking space.

Dongfang Qiubai gave a casual shake of his head. Girls these days were hard to raise; every single one of them was a bottomless pit.

Then I invited Chen Yifan to the back gate for drinks to celebrate. Chen Yifan said to call Du Qing along, but I said that still wouldn’t be enough. I called two more brothers as well. We were going to make a big move.
