Chapter 104: The Empress Panics! The Consort's New Gear! (6K)

~6 min read 1,173 words

But before he could even curse those words out, everything before his eyes shocked him so much that his eyes went wide, nearly popping out of their sockets.

On the night before the divorce, Zhou's father was dreaming when he suddenly heard a crisp sound of a door lock turning at the entrance, instantly putting him on guard.

"Tch, and you lot dare call yourselves the most tech-savvy great demons? How backward. Of course you use a lightning rod to avoid a lightning tribulation—look at this!" Dongfang Baye took out a silver iron pillar dozens of meters long from his spatial artifact and placed it at the center of the Mastiff King's tribulation-avoiding formation. This was clearly a special magic treasure.

Peng Kang pressed on. Next came some ancient beasts within the tomb, all of a very yin-cold type, few in number, but every one a saint-level existence.

A long procession appeared within Luota's perception. The Lucifer family banner flying high represented authority and status—the majesty of the emperor of this land.

By the time Wen Yongcheng realized something was amiss, it was already too late. Mu Beichen and Wen Xin had prepared for so long; if they still couldn't achieve victory, then all their grievance over this long period would have been for nothing.

"Fine, my bad…" On the rooftop, Lin Xuan watched Lin Xuan No. 2's performance and couldn't help but press a hand to his forehead. Meanwhile, Xia Lan couldn't help but snort with laughter. Lin Xuan slowly watched her finish laughing, and then Xia Lan suddenly couldn't laugh anymore.

Chen Qimei gave a string of wry smiles: "Don't you go mocking me. I regret not heeding your advice back then…" That fellow really was unlucky enough. When the rubber stocks were booming, he had ridden the wave and gained quite a bit. But when Wang Jin planned to sell off the Nanyang Rubber Company, he had specifically reminded him to dump all his stocks.

The foot he saw—a foot that had been almost completely hidden behind scattered wooden planks. The shoe on that foot looked so familiar. He clearly remembered that shoe had been on Old Dean Luo Hao's foot not long ago.

"Sister, please don't misunderstand, we're just classmates…" Ye Xingchen said, face unblushing but heart pounding wildly.

Within the Feather Ascension Gate, probably no one other than Sect Master Feng Bai Yu could detect Wang Ming's divine body.

"Mrs. Lan, are you flirting with me? Don't steal my lines from now on." The man curled the corner of his lip, turned, and walked into the kitchen.

Actually, I've never worried. As long as I'm by his side and he's protecting me, I've never had a single worry.

"Zhuo Yufeng, imagination is probably the only thing you're good at, isn't it?! How boring!" Si Junhao cut him off with an icy cold expression.

"This servant is from the State of Wei. My days were peaceful, my family harmonious—I lived a plain, uneventual, but incomparably happy life." She spoke, eyes filled with nostalgia, a smile playing at the corners of her lips.

But on second thought, he realized this thinking wasn't quite right. Wasn't it being too complacent and closed-minded? If things continued like this, how could the army ever modernize?

Is this Cell looking to die? The instant Cell's fist collided with those two ice-crystal jade dragons, this thought flashed through everyone's minds. They hadn't expected Cell to be so arrogant as to pit his flesh and blood against Liu Bing's ultimate technique.

But once the optics factory was spun off on its own, where could it have such a lavish technical configuration? It could only rely on the transferred technical workers and the recent college graduates—fundamentally unable to shoulder the maintenance and upkeep tasks.

If Lieutenant Lawrence hadn't been there in person, he simply wouldn't have believed what he was seeing. The ammunition the Chinese had fired could actually detonate directly—what kind of high technology was this? Could it be a radio proximity fuse? But such cutting-edge military technology, even the Soviets hadn't fully mastered—how could China possibly have it?

Ge Feng took it and looked up, stunned. He saw her brow lift slightly as she stared ahead, the corner of her mouth curling wickedly.

What they didn't know was that it wasn't just this one street, nor just this one city or this one country slowly fading away like this—the entire mortal world was beginning to dissolve like mothballs.

Whether Luo Tianjun had changed her heart, or her true nature had burst forth, or she had been possessed—she didn't dare, nor did she wish, to think any further.

With the nine-tailed fox's furious roar, the surrounding air masses began to turn fiery red, and along with them the sky began to change color, the crushing canopy overhead entirely a blazing red.

She wasn't a kind person, and she wouldn't be as gentle as Master, enduring when others did wrong.

Su Yunliang's alchemy talent was far better than hers. Now that she had returned, could she really still hold onto this hard-won position of young sect leader?

"So that means Dr. Solance is involved too?" Tingshu asked, and Dr. Solance graciously nodded.

His diving force was unstoppable, the ghost shadows gradually fading. Suddenly, the remaining ghost shadows began to gather, and the Wood Walker's figure reappeared. A-Shui's palm did not retract; with a twist to the right, he struck toward the Wood Walker.

"I'm leaving." The Black Qilin said no more, looked toward the direction of Mo Family Mechanism City, and his figure wove through the forest. In the span of a single breath, he was gone without a trace.

The massive Jin Wu projection, carrying terrifying pressure, crashed toward the thunder dragon. Of course, the pressure radiating from the thunder dragon was no weaker either, and with the augmentation of heavenly tribulation power, in this collision the Jin Wu projection likely wouldn't be able to withstand it.

"OK, as you wish." Zhang Shaofei smiled. The next second, man and chair vanished once more. Kyle watched Zhang Shaofei suddenly disappear, shook his head, and said, "Truly a man even I can't see through—such ghostly, unpredictable abilities." The next instant, a black hole leading to the Western Heroes appeared before Kyle.

Murmuring softly, Ruan Zhinan instantly collapsed to the ground, staring fixedly at his own pair of "mistake-making" hands, as if he couldn't believe he had done such a thing to Yun Qiumeng.

Understand? How could he possibly understand? Yun Xuan knew it all too well—Ancient Martial and Grandmaster simply couldn't be compared.

Lin Yu didn't find anything amiss, but Mo Ya's pretty face flushed slightly, looking a bit embarrassed.

Yang Xiao and the others exchanged glances. In their mutually helpless looks, they all shared a smile. Yang Xiao was still the first to speak.

"Makes sense—protect our own safety, and return to nature." After Black Tiger finished speaking, all the team members burst into laughter, with no trace of teasing whatsoever—entirely out of longing for the future.
