Don’t you agree, Boss Ming?” Aqi sat down uninvited in the seat of honor, smiling at the man across from him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What are you doing?” Even using the restroom requires knocking? She didn’t understand why Zhong Yi was doing this—she’d clearly forgotten that Qin Haoyu had come downstairs with a sheet to wash it in the restroom.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was undoubtedly a perilous situation for Wenger. The giants had all emerged from their slump, facing the rising force of Conte’s Klopp, the newly ascendant Tottenham, and the lavishly funded Manchester giants. For Wenger to challenge for the title? Even Arsenal fans themselves wouldn’t believe it—and even finishing in the top four was far harder than ever before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was disappointed in himself—did he really hope Xue Bing would change his clothes for him? Such an embarrassing thought.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Boss! Ten more meat buns!” Lamar deliberately raised his voice, drawing strange glances from those around him—as if this foreigner, gaping wide as he devoured his buns, were a monster from the Stone Age.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Then… can I apologize to you over the phone?” Xue Bing felt even worse inside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“By the way?” Qin Haoxuan didn’t quite grasp the meaning of using that word in this context.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since it was the last class of the morning, students paired off in twos and threes, laughing and chatting as they left the classroom for the cafeteria.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was like a desperate outlaw pushed to the edge of death, fighting desperately for his final chance at survival.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now that they had pledged allegiance to Zeus, they must protect their master. Moreover, if possible, Zeus would one day become the Lord of Sparta City. Their fates were now inseparable—even if they had to sacrifice their lives, they would protect Zeus’s safety.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She decided to wait a little longer—Dai Gua never acted like this. Something must have delayed him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was terrified of being extorted by Lan Ke, afraid even her last remaining savings would be taken from her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although he had never opposed Prince Fu’s bid for the throne, he had also never openly supported him—because in the end, the one who would suffer most from the struggle between the Crown Prince and Prince Fu would be his maternal grandfather, Emperor Jiayou.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Walli knew the truce she mentioned meant delaying the battle. For large-scale guild war systems, a second opportunity to adjust the preparation time was always offered—but only if both sides agreed. If one side refused, it was considered abandonment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lan Ke merely smiled at him, then leapt gracefully off the fighting platform, leaving Jun Tianheng alone on it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His words carried two “definitely”—each heavier than the last—yet clearly, he wasn’t as certain as he sounded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No, we’ll act as the situation demands. First, let’s get the Ocean Heart.” Xia Yan shook his head slightly. Though the hostility of these people stirred a faint unease in him, the most urgent task was still securing the Ocean Heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In contrast, Liu Boyao was tall and imposing, with a refined and handsome face: double eyelids, large eyes, a high nose bridge, and lips that seemed perpetually slightly smiling—a perfect image of a dandy and womanizer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If you grow cuter, more charming, and make the one you love feel that you truly understand and care for him—do you think he won’t love you?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Your money won’t be short,” the madam told him. “But I’m afraid you and the others might collude to swindle me, so I’ll hold back half for now. Once the girl starts taking clients, the other half will be paid without fail.” The old monster reluctantly accepted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiao Qingchen asked, “Did you unleash killing intent?” Shen Lü sighed. Xiao Qingchen turned his body, gazing at the slightly muddy road ahead. The newly risen sun cast rays through the dense forest, dappling the ground with patches of light.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The city on TV gave off a solemn, authoritative aura—but in Yiman’s eyes, everyone on TV programs was the same: whether on the News Broadcast or the Weather Report. They all represented authority itself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Bin didn’t believe it, but those around him began to doubt—simply because Chen Bin’s five men lay sprawled on the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the Bloodwing Pegasus wasn’t unscathed by the collision either. The truck wasn’t thin paper—it was like a stumbling stone, nearly flinging the Bloodwing Pegasus out of the air. Fortunately, as a spiritual beast, it spread its wings and regained control, restoring its balance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hua Xiong’s hair stood wildly on end, wild and disheveled. He jammed his claws and fangs into Gu Du Sheng’s right arm and tore downward with all his strength. In an instant, all flesh—from the arm down to the fingertips—was ripped away, leaving only a bare, meatless limb attached to the body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Walking through the brightly lit corridor into the courtyard, the scene amid the flowers and trees had long since changed beyond recognition. She wanted to look longer, but footsteps behind her snapped her back to reality.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yi Linzhang’s expression grew even more displeased. This old fox had always schemed against everyone in business, hiding his emotions perfectly—but now that he was out of business, he’d learned to display his true feelings.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yue Jingyan no longer had to worry about recouping her costs. She became famous overnight. More and more people invited her to act—but she stepped back from the front lines, transitioning into a true director, and established her own office.\u003C\u002Fp>",931,"2026-06-20T15:48:26.995Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","c196e20f22979b0d1f692d3f802c71b6a9d2a41c621f06d38eb6d18bea427267","ascending-to-the-jade-palace-chapter-80","ascending-to-the-jade-palace-chapter-78",243,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fascending-to-the-jade-palace-cover.jpg"]
