Chapter 141: [The Monster Wearing Human Skin] (7,800 characters)

They speak of freedom and democracy, but only for the wealthy at the top; for those at the bottom there is not a shred of concern.

In the end, Su Yaoyao's words were still brushed off by Chen Jiangyan, and she never heard him call her "baby" again.

After tucking the blanket back around her, the dim moonlight spilled in through the window, barely enough to make out Le Tong's face.

It can be said that Le Tong is Xi Hongyan's reverse scale; as long as she exists, a great blade hangs over Xi Hongyan's head, ready to fall at any moment.

Upon hearing "Aether particles," Odin was greatly shocked—he knew exactly what Aether particles were: the Reality Stone, one of the Infinity Stones of the universe, capable of altering reality on a physical level, its power boundless.

"Not bad at all. At noon the doctor came by and said that with another two months or so of rest, she'll recover." Shen Bin said with a smile, though the smile carried a hint of strain.

Jiang Ciyou's interview questions were far better than Xia Ling's—very professional, very in-depth, and very sophisticated.

Right, the yellow talismans on Daoist Priest Simu's body should count as paper too, right? This thing should be able to be made into paper effigies too.

Returning to the present, after splashing some water on his face Qin Wei felt much more awake; on the way back to his room he ran into Oswald.

But have you thought about it—the weather this season is fickle; what if it suddenly rains? With no warning at all, you wouldn't even have time to pitch a tent.

Han Zhenhan's fully built-up momentum was like a punch thrown into cotton, nearly causing internal injury from the rebound. Immediately after, several flapping sounds were heard; the shadow behind the gauze curtain walked forward in compass-like steps, then yanked open the gauze curtain before Han Zhenhan.

"We'll discuss these things later—first, deal with your husband!" Fu Shijin forcefully cut off Lin Jiajia's endless questions.

Ye Lishang dabbed twice, seemed unsatisfied, simply tossed the handkerchief aside, and used his own sleeve to wipe her face.

However, with Su Chen and Wanqi Longxi's relationship having developed to this point, Tian Xin, as her close bestie, was naturally the happiest of all.

"Brother Ye, has your wrist healed?" Once in the car she hurriedly grabbed his hand to look at his right wrist.

"Stop worrying, let's head back together." We've seen what there is to see, done what there is to do; most importantly, none of us knows how long this anti-corruption campaign will last—go back early or late, we still have to go back and face life.

I thought he was joking, but I didn't expect him to actually take action—the tool he used was that hand-rosary of his. I thought I had already mastered the techniques for using that string of beads, able to accurately fire and hit any given point, but when I saw Gu Xi's method, I could only sigh in admiration of my own inferiority.

Who the client is—that's a question I won't ask. A private detective's professional ethics would never allow such information to be revealed.

So the old fox's method is: take them away by force first; those who don't comply, or who resist violently, can be knocked unconscious or abandoned.

If it had been as before, even with a red face Ai Tiancheng would have gone out to borrow money and add more, but today she talked until her lips were worn thin, and Ai Tiancheng just stood there quietly, motionless.

When Li Ying made her move, Xiao Zheng shifted his gaze away, lowered his head to look at the tabletop, silent, lost in thought.

To tell the truth, Liao Kingdom hasn't been doing well these past few years—every faction has been locked in fierce struggle.

They chose a male hatchling from a branch line of the dragon race and sent him to the phoenix race to mate with a female of their clan.

And down below, facing the clan elders who came to probe him, Yun Fei dealt with them one after another with extremely perfunctory answers.

The reason Tie Zhongtang didn't come this time was precisely because Gongsun Wulong had memorized Tie Zhongtang's qi signature—should Tie Zhongtang approach Villains' Valley, a great battle would immediately erupt.

Chen Moyan took the phone from the side; through the video one could see the two of them were on a snowy mountain.

Li Hengchuan, in a foul mood, rolled off the sofa and casually flung his phone at the door.

Yun Li's room still had its lamp lit. Perhaps because of the clash with the Grandmaster that afternoon, where she had been beaten black and blue, she had come to recognize the gap between them. So now she wasn't being playful or mischievous; she stood in her room holding a long saber, eyes closed, perfectly still—she was likely comprehending "saber intent."

Of course, for safety's sake, he also set up his own exclusive secret key; with the current technology of the Super God Academy, they were still unable to crack that kind of protection program built with sacred coding.

This man can govern a region, but if he were to fight between two armies, I'm afraid his talent would fall short. There must be someone assisting him behind the scenes.

Actually, this was also the outcome Long Aotian had wanted—he hoped to disrupt the enemy's ability to judge and confuse their vision.

Lin Moxue didn't want to see any guests; toward people she didn't know or wasn't familiar with, her heart was filled with a sense of annoyance and fear. It seemed her grandfather Lin Jiaoyang also didn't want others to know her current state, and didn't force her to meet anyone.

These servants were Huang Zhi's confidence. Moreover, Huang Zhi was certain Huang Zhong wouldn't dare to act. That's why he brazenly brought men to break into Huang Zhong's home, arrogant and domineering.

After the Manchu Tartars invaded north of the Great Wall, the armies of Northern Zhili were mostly garrisoned around the capital, and the Tartar army advanced along the Grand Canal. As a result, the northern part of Shuntian Prefecture and Yongping Prefecture were quite peaceful. After the Tartars passed, everything was as usual. Moreover, news traveled very swiftly.
