Chapter 43: So Many People Want Fish

Within that near-desperate destiny, she could always see a tender flower blooming—the flower of hope. As long as there was hope, destiny could still be changed.

Right amidst those flames were several unruly kids who trailed behind him every day calling him Brother Chiba.

Seeing that Natsuko seemed to have taken his words in, Chu Feng released his hands, pulled out a few banknotes from the table beside them, and handed them to Natsuko.

"Yes, Commander! This is a rule established by our battalion commander, also to ensure we don't wrongfully kill good people. The battalion commander said that those whose hands are stained with the blood of ordinary people must pay with blood. As for those whose hands are clean, some leniency can be shown."

After a few minutes, she felt slightly better. Tilting her head, she strained her ears to listen to the movement outside. A long while later, apart from some faint, muffled music, she heard nothing at all. The soundproofing of this hidden compartment was quite decent.

Plucking off Danzo's faded Mangekyo Sharingan, Chiba casually put it away.

With the divine statue enshrined and incense candles lit, the atmosphere of the entire Taoist temple instantly gained an extra touch of serenity and nature.

Not long after the avatar of Unicron vanished, massive upheavals shook the entire planetary fortress, and the entire planet appeared to be disintegrating.

Even if his body could not withstand such a lethal poison, Chu Feng had the ability to purge it from his system. Therefore, tasting the "Five-Color Soup" was not an impulsive act on his part.

Compared to ten thousand "talismans," he cared far more about the formation diagrams promised by Chu Feng.

Especially Cailian, who had proactively expressed her stance just moments ago, felt an inexplicable sensation that those words were targeted at her as a warning. She lowered her head and trembled slightly.

"Erlong, shut up..." Tang Yiran walked over from behind with a look of displeasure, and Liu Erlong immediately shut her mouth obediently.

Chen Zhi did not force him either; instead, he locked him up in the woodshed, leaving him to starve and thirst.

They are the Zhao family, after all. Even if they couldn't influence Qingyue's job, they could go to the court or the police station to easily reduce her sentence by a few years. Why would they still come to me?

Therefore, the moment she laid eyes on Lin Mo, she kept him in her heart and made sure to stay alert.

From the first layer of Qi Condensation to the eleventh layer comprised ten realms, and each realm could grant him 3 spiritual stones, totaling thirty spiritual stones.

Suzuki Sonoko looked at Kudo Shinichi's profile; the expression on his face remained as confident as before.

Chen Xingxu looked at Wen Suili beside him and had no objections. Jiang Hua looked at Lin Qianxue; though reluctant, she endured it. A flash of disappointment crossed Chi Nanyi's eyes upon realizing they wouldn't be pairing up with someone else today.

Sect Master Yang Shan felt that letting these vibrant youths manage the sect might be more likely to illuminate the path forward for the sect.

Rather, these three statues were, after all, an important part of his journey in immortal cultivation, and many people might see them in the future. If they looked too wretched, it would somewhat damage his image.

If Old Madam Qu were to see Prince Jian and babble nonsense again, the Sun family would truly make a disgraceful spectacle of themselves all the way to the capital before the imperial throne. Yet, Sun Panshi could not refuse the meeting; Prince Jian had already made it clear enough that this matter was tied to the conspiracy of the deposed crown prince, and the imperial family was bound to investigate.

He still had some friends he could look up here, though whether he could actually find anyone was hard to say.

"What are there to fear? Grinding it back tomorrow, I'll still be a hero," Moshang Hua said with boundless bravado.

"Miri, I know you are doing this for Anthony." When Miri asked that question, Charles confirmed the thought in his heart: Miri intended to accept Simba as her mate.

"But if Brother Zheng really has a mental illness, leaving him outside will make the entire imperial family a laughingstock..." The crown prince was torn: should he be a good father, or a good crown prince?

"Did he really say that?" Yan Yaoshun asked, his expression calm—calm like the mountain rain about to sweep through the pavilions.

Hearing Angel say this, Miri's expression softened. A sense of relief washed over her heart as she said softly, "..."

On the third day after Rodan and Song Xiuyuan left, Luo Zhan took Dabai and joined the main force to participate in the desert military exercise.

Everyone was stunned by his stern words, and even Miri was startled. She had never seen Sebastian fly into such a rage before.

Yan Ziyou tightly grasped Sun Yu's hand, pressing it against her cheek. Only after closing her eyes did she safely drift off to sleep.

Finally, an angry roar echoed from within the estate. Following that, the grand gates flew open with a loud bang, revealing the figure of Cui Ting, except that his pristine white robes were stained with large patches of blood.

"Uh..." Zhao Sanniang wanted to explain that Lu Jiu wasn't short on money, but upon second thought, Lu Jiu only had a pathetic monthly allowance of a hundred strings of cash, which was practically the same as being broke, so she obediently closed her mouth and stayed quiet.

The Moon Empire had constructed its second crater base, and a large number of transport shuttles busied themselves constantly across the lunar surface. Viewed from afar from Earth, the Moon seemed to have transformed into a honeycomb suspended in the sky, crawling with bustling bees everywhere.

"Ten million?" Zhao Wuji looked at the other party curiously. It wasn't that he thought the amount offered was too much; Zhao Wuji didn't care about this little money at all, and instead felt it was too little.

"I know we aren't allowed to drink alcohol, but why can't we have soft drinks?" another loud voice echoed through the phone.

Before Saya Mibu could sort out her thoughts, she heard a high-pitched cry from her mother. Just as she prepared to turn and sneak away, that slightly familiar male voice made Saya stop in her tracks, her expression one of shock as she looked up toward the second floor!

Although Zhong Dalu was not the deputy county magistrate in charge of education, Principal Chen was still extremely happy to hear him say that.

From then on, his absorption of spiritual energy would be completely unobstructed, and the pain of the past would never hinder him by even a fraction again.

No one heard Wang Chen's voice. Glancing at the communication device he had left aside, he finally noticed the missed calls and the do-not-disturb settings from Saeko Busujima and the others, prompting him to scratch his head and turn to leave Wushima!

When the last judge finished scoring, enthusiastic applause erupted at the scene once again. Many people stood up, cheering for Lin Weiwei.
