Volume One, Chapter 104: A Smooth Start

Upon hearing Chu Ming's words, Du Wenchang instinctively said, “Manager Chu, you misunderstand. Actually, I...”

A gentleman prizes wealth, but takes it by proper means. Lin Zheng had never earned dirty money; if he accepted payment, it was only when he was absolutely certain he could cure the patient.

Besides, there were three bandits, and all of them were armed with deadly weapons. The police did not think twice about it; if they failed to act now, they would all be in danger.

On the street, a passerby struggled to dodge the falling wreckage of a collapsing building, only for a ripple of distorted light to flash and twist him into a lump. When the warped light faded, that crumpled body could never be restored.

Although Qingzhou was still blanketed in snow, with the snowfall no longer increasing and the accumulated drifts gradually melting away, it would all be gone into the sea within at most three months.

The doctors in the second orthopedic department were somewhat younger than those in the first. After all, it was a department that had only recently been split off, and its chief physician was not very old and was willing to bring along newcomers. Guo Wei counted as a veteran.

Apart from Liu Bei and his own third and fourth brothers, he did not even place the veteran Huang Zhong in his eyes.

As a bounty hunter, Lei Banna knew better than anyone how important money was, especially when it came to keeping a tank running.

Before long, she hurriedly drew back her consciousness and sealed off her hearing, so as to avoid listening to sounds that would make her blush and quicken her pulse.

Unexpectedly, Jin Sanshui understood quite a lot; he had even figured out the procedures for police deployment. Perhaps for that reason, Shen Yingying's swagger had weakened somewhat from the start.

Shi Hongyun called the head of the infectious diseases department and took Yun Lu and the young police officer off for examinations, while the older police officer was led away for tea by the director of the medical affairs office.

“The two most powerful men under heaven are finally going to fight.” Someone murmured in low excitement, swallowing hard.

They were responsible for transporting supplies and establishing a foothold. To gain a stable presence in this world, adequate logistical support was indispensable.

In the void, layers upon layers of tribulation clouds even began to form, while waves of radiant dao light and rosy splendor rolled in to envelop everything. This change had already left Fang Qingling utterly stunned.

So in this situation, Qiao Lu still needed more convincing reasons to make the United Government believe there was a necessity for the Wandering Earth to continue its passage into the next plane.

Xu Hai, standing nearby, looked at Xu Peng, a faint flash of resentment passing through his eyes, then cast a complaining glance at his father. He could not understand it: he was the biological son, so why hand the power over to Xu Peng?

When Xuan Chen saw that Yi Wanying did not speak, he stepped forward and, under her gaze, sat down beside her.

Sima Chu looked up at Ling Zixuan, then was silent for a moment. He picked up the cup on the table and said, “I left my cup in the classroom. I came back to get it so I could take it back to the dorm and fill it with water.” When he finished, Sima Chu lowered his head in silence.

“That monkey and I have known each other for many years. I know his character; he is not the sort who casually starts a war. If I am not mistaken, it must be you who provoked him!” Yang Jian thundered in fury, pointing at the assembled immortals.

No matter what, Mu Xinghe had saved his life in that one-sided beating, and however much resentment Shang Chenyuan still held in his heart, he had to give him face.

Next to Shattered Dome Base was a very deep harbor, where they usually carried out waterproof sealing tests on the mecha hunters. It ought to be an excellent battlefield.

Huang Qiya discovered that not only did she feel far less resistant than she had expected, she was not the least bit vexed; instead, a feeling of joy and closeness rose up from the depths of her heart.
