Chapter 134: Airport Shooting
When Ao Xi squeezed over to take a look, the young woman was enjoying her pickle-flavored pizza with gusto. She even enthusiastically held out a slice to the man beside her, gesturing for him to have some. The man gave an awkward smile and declined, likely cursing her under his breath. The young woman didn't mind at all and went back to eating with even greater relish. At the security checkpoint opposite her, an officer unzipped a piece of luggage, felt something amiss, and used a small knife to slit it open, revealing a bag of white powder inside.
However, Liu Sanshi’s warnings led him to mistakenly believe that the authorities were already aware of his favoring his concubine over his wife, so he now acted with scrupulous impartiality. While Sheng Hong’s success today was certainly aided by the Wang family and his own slick, cautious nature, the financial support from Sheng Wei had also been crucial.
According to the map provided by Zaiduoduo, she only needed to travel another ten kilometers northwest to reach the Lemi Tribe, which was roughly the same size as the Zelin Tribe.
On the other side, Naruto was not faring as well. As his center of gravity shifted, the difficulty of controlling his chakra increased exponentially, and he fell into the river the moment he lost focus.
"N-no, nothing," Yixia, unaccustomed to being treated so gently, stammered, her face flushing from pale to crimson. She twisted her fingers together, staring shyly at Lanyue, her speech stuttering slightly.
"As for the opponent, with that giant bird, they can easily afford to wait for us to tire ourselves out. They can dodge nimbly, and their chakra consumption is far lower than ours."
The squeaky wheel gets the grease; Qinghua felt this deeply. Just by weeping and complaining before the old mistress, she had secured silver, maids, and her sister-in-law had become much more restrained. She had been truly foolish in the past.
"What you say makes sense, Aunt. Please, Mother, look into this for her when you have a moment," Zhao Xing said with a smile.
Whether it was the reform of the salt administration or the implementation of new laws, it actually had little impact on noble families like the Qi family.
Given Rulan’s temperament, if she were to enter the palace, to say nothing of the backstabbing and schemes, her explosive temper alone would surely invite disaster.
Zhu Yong never intended to wipe out these merchants as he did with the Wang family; the Shanxi economy still required these traders to function.
By the time his men discovered him, he had already turned pale, his eyes bulging due to respiratory failure.
In his memory, he had only replaced the water pipes for Sun Yirou once; no one else should have known about that.
The iron teeth of the trap, as long as they were, had buried themselves deep into Trari’s flesh, gnawing straight to the bone and leaving him drenched in blood.
After thinking for a moment, I walked over, wanting to see if I could pull him into the Gate of Hell again. However, when I tried to open the gate, there was absolutely no response.
The moment the orb was in my hand, I felt a surge of heat rush through my entire body. It felt just like drinking a bowl of hot water after being frozen stiff in the dead of winter.
The hemostatic potion had a very simple recipe, but this bottle of restorative was something Bude had spent agonizing effort finding in ancient texts and racking his brain to complete. It was incredibly expensive.
"Your disciple stole my sister’s magical artifact, and I’m here to settle the score. As for the surrounding items, they were exhausted during our fierce battle," Qin Feng explained nonchalantly.
What Yi Bai gave him was a "King-Making Pill." Though the name was crude, it was pointed and hit the mark exactly where it mattered.
Lin Xue fled from the earthen house on the mountain, followed by two Tibetan Mastiffs stumbling in a drunken stupor.
Qinyou immediately considered cheating. With the Immortal Mansion, while he shouldn't rely on it for everything, it didn't mean he shouldn't use it at all.
Perhaps enraged by the enemy’s attitude, or perhaps hating her own incompetence, Polly eventually abandoned all mobility and defense.
From last night’s examination, he discovered that Zulinda’s tail was an extension of her coccygeal bone. The hardness of this bone was comparable to high-strength metal, and it pulsed with a strange, mysterious energy.
