Volume 1, Chapter 141: Could You Be Gentler?

“I’ll head to the office first. There’s still a mountain of work waiting for me there.”

With that, Yun Xueyan did not even give Chu Ming a chance to reply before turning and walking straight toward the Maserati.

She opened the door, slid into the driver’s seat, lowered the window, and said, “I’m leaving first.”

Motian’s gaze was as cold as ice. He glanced at the mountain range soaring with demonic energy and hesitated. Before, he would have charged straight in without a second thought, but things were different now. The ruler of this mountain range had just broken through to the Great Saint realm. A Great Saint was a figure of considerable standing even in the Demon Realm.

More importantly, given Happy Farm’s current output of super vegetables, it was impossible to supply the operations of more than a dozen specialty stores at once. Karina’s online shop for the super vegetables was already being prepared at full speed, and once it went live, the demand for them would become even more overwhelming.

Just as Shen Lian was making active preparations to deal with Qiu Yingchou, two unexpected people appeared outside the barrier surrounding Paradise Island.

Today was Friday, and I had no classes. My original plan was to write posts in the morning and go out for a walk in the afternoon. Then a phone call early that morning disrupted everything. I changed my plans: I would go to “class” in the morning and return home to write my posts in the afternoon. Plans never survive contact with reality, and now another complication had arisen.

The entire venue fell utterly silent. At that moment, the same question surfaced in most people’s minds: What had just happened?

Bing Yin vaguely felt that his hand hurt a little. Only then did he slowly begin to rise, discovering that there seemed to be another hand in his own.

Mu Zhu: “Look how excited you all are. You’re practically dancing with joy. I have a question for the two of you: what exactly is a touchstone?”

The stark contrast made it difficult for Jia Junkai, who had always held the upper hand over Gu Zhidong, to accept what had happened.

Through the coordinated efforts of Lan Duo and Yue Tianyue, Xuye Middle School successfully widened its lead to double digits.

Si Mei: “The same applies here. Those who refuse to follow the rules are like mosquitoes and flies—hated and shunned by everyone.”

After Ao Tingxin put it that way, the Monkey King froze. After thinking it over, he could only offer an awkward laugh.

Still, one thing could at least be confirmed: Huaban was already directly directing the entire mission. The crocodile before them was merely a mouthpiece—albeit one with selfish motives of its own.

It was difficult for them to imagine that, on an event whose rules they could not even understand, two young men around twenty years old would actually dare to challenge him.

Although Cheng Nuo was not very familiar with the antique market, there was no problem with Sister Fang’s side making tens or even hundreds of thousands from a single antique.

It was a golden beetle with a pair of long horns. Beneath its wings, which opened from time to time, its abdomen shimmered with colors like a rainbow.

After checking the identification numbers of all ten items, the result was exactly as Ito Takuto had anticipated. He had answered seven of the ten correctly, which counted as a normal performance.

Liu Qingming was stunned as well. He had assumed that the Pursuit had most likely been destroyed by the Firebird, but it was unexpectedly still intact. Yet how had it returned? And how had it dared to land on Zhurong Peak?

That was right. If beings such as Ho-Oh were considered more sacred in human legends, then Groudon, Kyogre, and Rayquaza—who never accepted offerings and simply destroyed whatever they pleased, or reveled in ruling the skies—were more often referred to as “ancient fiends.”

“The third matter is that this Zheng expedition against Japan is also connected to the Catholic Church,” Princess Kunyi said slowly.

There were vegetables in the refrigerator at home, but the weather was hot and he was too lazy to cook. He decided to go outside and grab something quick to eat.

However, compared with the adult Purple Hook Bees, these young bees were even more ignorant. After flying out of the hive, they quickly gathered together and began circling above the heads of the four members of the Aokliman party.
