Does she even have any respect for me?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She didn’t say more, but the meaning was clear: your best friend looks down on me so much, I might as well bring it out now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>David? Warren? They merely value Huang Lingfeng’s abilities and adaptability.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meng Yue paid no attention to her incessant apologies, her gaze hollow as she stared into the distance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Yu had originally planned to negotiate peacefully with Zhao Erhu, but this fellow was so aggressive.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because of the “Brocade Carnival,” Li Jue was in work mode at the company today; as the actual organizer of the carnival, he had to handle many matters.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No. 6 was an elite puppet with management skills; No. 10 was promoted to elite today and gained driving skills.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Thank you, Director Li! Five million in dividends is already a lot—now you’re giving a luxury car? You’re truly too generous!” The General Manager’s face glowed bright red with excitement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To enhance the power of Nushan Technique, flesh and muscle strength are crucial factors, entirely dependent on the cultivator’s own foundation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wei Wei unconsciously shuddered; even now, recalling the sensation of having tendons ripped out sent a chill through him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Jili saw Zhang Jun beaten to that state, yet he could do nothing—his heart ached terribly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The leader had only spoken one sentence just now—could someone among them have betrayed us, and now he’s the boss?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Princess Lianhua’s pupils gradually contracted; her fear could no longer be suppressed. She had seen with her own eyes a delicate youth engulfed in roaring flames, his ink-black pupils slowly turning blood-red, seared into her mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The others were fine, but Cui’er refused to part from Helian Yanran, weeping uncontrollably.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhao Qing stationed men to watch from two or three kilometers away from the dock, with guards posted on every route.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wei Quan would directly instruct them to secretly escort Zhang Jun and Xu Shaonian out of Qiyoutang’s territory—under no circumstances could either of them suffer harm on his own ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the dark grass, a darker mass was struggling to crawl across the blades.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Overall, none of these individuals had high cultivation bases, except for the unknown power of Chunjun.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This is the process of establishing an industry; once a supply chain is built, the employment and tax revenue it generates are considerable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The other party wanted to swindle and make a living; Qiao Ruyue neither resisted nor endorsed it, but she didn’t want her hard-earned money ending up in his pocket.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Speaking of this, Chen Mo’s eyes turned red; his situation was common among free cultivators, for among the vast population of the immortal world, those who enter sects were exceedingly rare.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Old Zhang had told no one about this matter; under current circumstances, speaking out would only bring trouble, for human hearts are unpredictable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only at the foot of the mountain did Xu Xuankē and Xi Ning rein in their horses; beyond this point, they could only proceed on foot.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The green-clad warriors hired from Central Asia suffered heavy casualties under the Ming people’s assault.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The old turtle nodded, said nothing, and walked out again.

Seeing them enter, he cast them a cold glance but said nothing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She saw the chief lady smiling sweetly at the guests, her fleshy face beaming like a flower—she looked utterly deserving of a punch.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chunjiao responded, seeing Yin Zhen out the door, then returned to the cabinet to fetch clothes for Ji Wanrong.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xing Lan’yang’s fingers, holding chopsticks, twitched slightly as she silently sized up Xing Xizhou and Jian Nanfeng.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The rat that hadn’t reached the wall heard two screams behind it, turned back—and its soul nearly fled its body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nanxiang suddenly recalled something Madam Ning had said: roughly, if Zheng He married her, then her brother would become hers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Louis stole a glance at Yezi’s slender waist and rounded hips, swallowed hard, then pulled out his tools to crack the two remotely locked off-road vehicles.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His kind words, how could Nanxiang not understand? Surely over the years he had endured much hardship and witnessed much bloodshed, which allowed him to speak of killing so calmly and clearly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I pointed at him: “You… you could do this?” He’s always been a gentleman—how could he launch a surprise attack?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone began to rest; Long Jiu tilted his head slightly—the Battle of Fengyan Academy was over, but so much had happened here, far beyond his expectations.\u003C\u002Fp>",1093,"2026-06-19T21:28:29.248Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","683d18949b2372335456e9f9f7720db661927bd27ce7acc202eb55b891f2e95a","even-a-gentleman-must-be-careful-chapter-820","even-a-gentleman-must-be-careful-chapter-818",864,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Feven-a-gentleman-must-be-careful-cover.jpg"]
