Chapter 112: Hidden Dangers!
Maple Forest Hotel.
Chen Fan poured a glass of warm water for Meng Rongrong and asked kindly, "Sister, are you hungry? Should I have the hotel prepare something for you to eat?"
Meng Rongrong shook her head; she was in no mood to eat. After all, given what had happened, anyone in her position would find it hard to settle.
...
Old Master Huang’s excitement suddenly froze as his gaze settled on the largest black corpse pill.
Chen Nan’s hair began to change color until it turned a brilliant gold. He felt an intense heat, as if he had been thrown into boiling water, but it was nothing compared to the rage burning in his heart.
Seeing the situation grow increasingly strange, the Manju-shaka could not help but cough twice, inquiring about the status of Xue Qinghe.
"Understood." Hearing that it might help with his introduction to array cultivation, Liu Lang perked up. It wasn't as if he had to help, but gaining unexpected knowledge in formation techniques would certainly be a bonus.
"Very well, Miss Xue Jian, please follow me. Where is the young lady from earlier?" Noticing that Hua Ying was gone, the servant looked around privately but could not find her.
Perhaps due to the great array covering the isolated island, the spiritual energy was so dense and the seasons so indistinct that even as the year drew to a close and the biting cold of winter arrived, the island remained as lush and green as ever.
If nothing else, Bibi Dong’s majesty was enough to awe those around her; even Chen Xin and Gu Rong had to exert some effort, or they would find it difficult to answer if questioned.
When Chuan Yunlong saw the opponent’s weaponry, equipment, and sheer numbers, which far exceeded his own, and heard the Green Gang members calling the owner of the goods "Brother Guan," he knew he had invited serious trouble.
Guan Shijie was not afraid of Kawashima Yoshiko reporting him, for in the eyes of the Japanese, she was merely a tool that had already been used.
Liao Jingling inviting him to dinner was secondary; discussing life and ideals was the real goal. However, at eight o'clock tonight, the U.S. non-farm payroll data would be released, and Lin Haocang still needed to see how much money he had made.
She could be forgiven for her suspicions. Although Mouri had recently gained great fame thanks to Conan, he was, after all, a private detective. Families who could afford a butler generally did not want to be associated with investigators.
Just as she had lost everything and fallen into total despair, God had opened a window of light for her.
The Hall of the Undead before them was magnificent and grand, bearing a striking resemblance to the imperial palaces of the mortal world, leaving one unable to help but gaze up in awe, their very soul shaken.
The few retainers of the Kaiyuan Kingdom who held the deepest grudges against Ye Tian, such as Zhang Lifeng and the others, all wore expressions of intense excitement.
The reason was simple: in all her long years, she had never known anyone who realized her true identity and dared to say to her, "I will save your life."
Upon hearing these words, the entire scene fell into a deathly silence, countless stunned gazes fixed on the guard whose expression had drastically changed.
As for Shan Ling’er, Zhuge Xiran, and Huangfu Rui’er, they had long since closed their beautiful eyes, preferring not to see.
From that day on, Xiyao never came to work again. A few days later, he saw a report of Xiyao’s death in the newspaper. Although the victim’s face was blurred, he knew it was her.
"Protect yourselves! These two unclean things are not easy to deal with!" Duan Changfeng said in a grave, low voice.
Although Ye Tian had deceived them earlier, it was merely a matter of wounded pride; they had suffered no substantial loss in any other regard.
An explanation? Hearing this, everyone present gasped. They had truly encountered someone formidable; the moment they arrived, they started trouble.
On the Pacific Ocean, the massive fleet began to change course. The surface force was led by guided-missile destroyers, the underwater force by large submarines, supported by Dreadnought-class siege ships, while the air was blanketed by swarms of MiGs and Twinblade helicopters.
