Chapter 578: The Exceptionally Gifted Overlord CEO
When Shi Chaoyi arrived at the main hall of the magistrate's office, a banquet was being held.
Moreover, it seemed the banquet was sizable; the senior military and civil officials of Youzhou were all present.
People such as Ping Lie and Geng Renzhi—Shi Siming's trusted scholars and generals—were also in attendance.
Beside Shi Siming's main seat, two additional seats were set: Mrs. Xin on one side and Shi Chaoqing on the other, making the family appear harmonious.
Seeing this, Shi Chaoyi instantly felt superfluous.
When Hu Qian reached the camp gate, he found it already crowded with soldiers, sealing the gate from top to bottom.
But the beast was far too agile; its chest cavity was larger than the throat target, making it impossible to dodge.
Before the words finished, Heavenly Fire No. 39 sprang into action again, charging toward the remaining Tai Shan masters.
Inside the cage on the back of this gigantic sea monster, Tong Yan naturally could not see the creature's full form, but from its several ferocious attacks, its size seemed comparable to land beasts like lions or tigers—only much larger, with sharper claws.
He pushed his speed to the limit, flicked his wrist lightly, and thrust straight at Xuan Yuan Tuo's throat; Xuan Yuan Tuo's pupils contracted, and he instantly raised his dagger to block Zhang Yiming's attack.
On the ranking list, only the top spot remained unchanged, while competition for other positions stayed fierce—today you're second, tomorrow I'm second, and the rankings can shift multiple times within a single day.
The palm of the mechanical arm continuously sprouted spikes, which pierced the warship and even impaled several members of the New Scenery Squad.
Long Chen remained silent again, while internally he kept weighing the truth and falsehood in Wen Renchu's words.
After this wave of attack by the Chinese team, the pace of both sides gradually slowed; most of the time the players contested the midfield, and occasional balls that reached the opponent's backcourt were cleared by defenders or the goalkeeper.
What puzzled everyone was that the figure known as Xiaolisha had retired to the mountains decades ago, yet today he unexpectedly resurfaced.
Even the halo spread to the farthest reaches, so thin it was almost invisible, and the surroundings were completely calm.
Lu Bu made up his mind, tossed the Fang Tian Halberd aside; Miyamoto Musashi, seeing Lu Bu act rashly, darted into the grass and slashed the halberd back, after which Lu Bu seized the Fang Tian Halberd, his face clouded with malice.
At this moment, Tian Ye, looking again at the fiery red sea of flowers, found it blinding and wished he could destroy them all.
Nezha stared at the war puppets around him; if not for their overwhelming numbers, he would have liked to annihilate them all, but alas, the idea was good while reality was cruel.
After several days of lingering dark clouds, the sky finally cleared, and the bright sunshine brought a sigh of relief to the villagers.
The Demon Lord entered the guest room, then with a thud knelt on the floor and performed a grand kneeling tribute to Mo Shi.
"You! Wait for me… wait for me…" Lin Ruoxi, seeing that he ignored her, was furious. It was clear he was still unwilling to give up and still intended to go to Emerald Cloud Palace, but she was uneasy. So she had to follow behind him, making the trip to Emerald Cloud Palace together.
Xuan Chen smiled, saying that for him, if a problem could be solved with one cigarette, he'd use one; if one wasn't enough, he'd try two; if two still couldn't solve it, then he wouldn't solve it that way and would consider using force.
Now that he had tasted it himself, Steward Liu finally realized Su Yunjin was telling the truth; the wine she brought was indeed something their Fumankou had never sold before.
Since Qin Yue flashed the white jade ring, Su Bing's attitude toward her became as good as could be; any good news was first thought of her, almost indistinguishable from how she treats Young Master Yan.
