Chapter 27: The Disciplinary Committee

The man’s expression shifted constantly, a spectacle of conflicting emotions. He was infuriated at being treated with such disdain by a young girl, yet he found himself unable to do anything about Jiang Tang. After all, she was Sheng Huaian’s fiancée.

“Miss Jiang Tang, a pretty face alone isn’t enough to secure your position as the future matriarch of the Sheng family,” the man remarked with a sneer. The Sheng family operated on a philosophy of “value above all,” where even the birth of their heirs was subject to rigorous evaluation.

“Thank you.”

Adam pivoted and lashed out with a kick, colliding with 9S’s longsword; his movements were significantly more fluid than before.

Hu Shun-tang patted Kuang Guohua’s face, while the Yaksha King, accompanied by Sally and Peng Jiayuan, scanned the surroundings, searching for any other available means of transportation. Returning to the parking lot to retrieve their rented car in their current state was impossible; it would only draw unwanted attention from the crowd.

Kled, having dealt the killing blow to Gnar, reached his maximum Fury, bringing Skaarl back into the fray. The once-near-death Kled saw his condition restored to a respectable state.

In the midst of the skirmish, a sound of footsteps suddenly echoed from the corridor outside, followed by a surge of bright light flooding into the room.

“How about I give you a kiss? Or maybe two?” Seeing that Yun Ze remained unresponsive, Tong Guai Guai adjusted her offer.

Yun Ze, however, remained calm. He took the doll from Tong Guai Guai’s hands, scooped up the screaming doll head from the basin, and deftly reattached it.

Team Leader Liu would surely erupt at this knock, as she hated nothing more than being interrupted while reprimanding her subordinates.

“In short, that’s about how it is.” Old Man Yan finally took his dry pipe from his mouth, emptied the ash from the bowl, and stopped refilling it with tobacco.

Suddenly, a scalding, spicy sensation spread rapidly from his chest throughout his entire body. A warm current surged from his dantian, swiftly coursing through his limbs and bones, spreading rapidly along every cell and capillary.

“Tian Yi, where are you going?” the team leader suddenly shouted. The others were thrown into a panic, their first instinct being that Tian Yi had been possessed.

It must be noted that over the past five days, Beihuer had led his Xianbei cavalry in eight consecutive raids on enemy camps, all launched at different, unpredictable times.

Among the Electric Bug clan, as long as Jupiter and the others did not overstep the boundaries set by the tribe, they could live in luxury, even acting as despots and bullying their kin at will—it was no exaggeration to call them local tyrants.

At that time, the Han Dynasty had just endured a bloody war and a catastrophic flood, leaving the nation’s strength severely depleted. Cao Zhen was not at all worried about Zhuge Liang suddenly launching an expedition into Liangzhou; doing so was a move that served two purposes at once.

She remained as heroic and spirited as ever. Although a hint of tenderness would occasionally slip into her gaze when she looked at Tian Yu, it could not mask her decisive and efficient demeanor.

“It’s about the land the Xia family wants to purchase from Jiaheng. Hasn’t President Xia mentioned it to you yet?” President Li added immediately.

Under normal circumstances, with such a massive earthquake hitting Chang’an, a high-ranking official should have stepped forward to take charge of the situation by now.

Princess Changle, who had already shared a conjugal relationship with Shen Lang, did not care in the slightest that they were being watched.

Because these heroes bore such heavy burdens, they inevitably made those around them feel weary as well.

The scene in the live broadcast room spiraled out of control, with a dense barrage of comments and gifts pouring in.

The lead bailiff, his face dark, dared not meet Shen Lang’s gaze and slowly lowered the hand that had been gripping his sword hilt.

Wang Shichong nodded. “Then let us go and meet this person.” With that, he spurred his horse and gave chase. Zhang Jincheng and Mai Tiezhang exchanged a glance and followed closely behind.

Her voice was also beautiful, giving the listener a feeling as comfortable as eating cotton candy or a sweet dessert.

The condition set by the Ancestral Spirit was both simple and difficult: Zheng Dong had to find a way to secretly steal one-third of the Soul-Severing Jade vein for them.
