Chapter 131: Let Us Sail Toward the Sea of Desire!

On the cruise ship.

Mary warmly welcomed the nun.

She indoctrinated the nun with Wu Wang's free will, tirelessly, like a devout missionary.

"The Venerable has sent a divine decree: He will bestow the power of 【Desire】."

Wu Wang heard Mary say those words.

He couldn't help but laugh out loud.

All steady! Everything's steady!

He knew this wasn't the real Aoguyi Village—it was merely a trap meant to confine the nun.

A tremendous roaring echoed from within the wooden dragon; its neck bulged violently, then burst open amid the dragon's wail—Qian Shou Zhujian emerged barehanded, having shattered the dragon's body with his unmatched brute strength.

This approach offers significant advantages in both development cost and timeline, potentially shortening the entire project by over half a year.

After waking, Ji Kai spat out his breakfast upon seeing the news in the newspaper. He quickly drank a few sips of tea and examined the article more closely.

"Then help me one more time—I'll look into why Taihua Financial Group suddenly allied with Global Mall and Baibao Net. Though Taihua intends to target me, this alliance is unusually shrewd; someone must be pulling strings behind it," Li Feng said.

Just then, she felt her foot touch the riverbed, and an idea instantly flashed through her mind.

With a meaningful glance at Yan He, A Ling grabbed Tian Yi and walked outside, then lifted her onto the backseat of Yan He's electric scooter.

Jia Yi felt a pang of guilt, but he had never anticipated such a thing—beyond apologizing, there was nothing else he could do. He couldn't blame the other for having weak mental resilience.

But Super Life is the enemy of all life: its forms vary wildly, its level transcends imagination, and correspondingly, Super Lives are exceedingly rare—if they weren't, this boundless universe, every life-bearing planet and dimension, would long ago have been devoured by those mysterious horrors.

"Alright, now you can bring out your quilts and rest for the night in the woods outside the valley. Tomorrow, you may leave on your own," Ji Kai said.

After all, he hadn't followed the traditional Qi Condensation path, intending to ignore matters of mental state—but now, faced with this sudden situation, his heart tightened with anxiety, unsure if his method would work at all.

For several consecutive days, Su Mianmian was confined at home, and Li Jinye didn't go to the office—he stayed home watching her. Su Mianmian tried to sneak out multiple times, but each attempt was caught by Li Jinye.

"Come back to the hotel with me first—I'll settle accounts with you properly later," Li Jinye grabbed her wrist, making her wince. She knew he was angry, so she stayed silent.

Ye Susu's face suddenly flushed red. Though some things had already been exposed, wasn't that all in the past?

The two-headed dog bit air, its limited intelligence unable to comprehend where the enemy had gone; its bloodshot eyes flickered with confusion.

Finally, Mu Yunqing could no longer hold out—he appointed Jin Lan as the second-highest guardian, just below the Demon Ancestor, and handed him control of the Demon Palace's finances before fleeing.

Something occurred to him. As he watched Mu Yunqing and Di Jiuyin depart, Tian Mo's eyes darkened with an unmistakably suggestive gleam.

"Mianmian, I'd like to be friends with you first—could you tell me your phone number?" Ji Shaofan suddenly asked, smiling warmly at Su Mianmian.

Perhaps this mindset makes one less likely to underestimate the enemy, allowing the Xinlu Empire to fight better—perhaps the right decision will lead to victory; such an attitude isn't bad at all.
