Chapter 185: 180 Collapse (5k)

On August 18, Eastern Canadian Time, just as Paulson closely monitored Guo Shanfeng, Chandler was also closely watching this research firm.

Or rather, a hated short-seller.

Guo Shanfeng called itself a research company, but in truth it profited from shorting—this had been confirmed during its last operation.

When Chandler received the email from Guo Shanfeng, he had never heard its name, but after reading the research report, he quickly looked up related information.

"Indeed, as long as the old general holds power for even one day, the imperial court will remain unstable!" Chen Deng nodded in agreement—he had anticipated this.

But annoyance aside, he still had to fight this battle—the toad spirit's cultivation base was also at Golden Core peak, and now Chao Heidou immediately understood: this noise was meant to disrupt the opponent's mind, forcing them to unleash their full strength, making the fight much easier.

Lin Yang did not expose Leng Gufeng; instead, he played along with Leng Gufeng's trap—first, he did not believe Leng Gufeng would scheme to harm him; second, the Shenxiao 'Gate' had truly angered him, and if this chance could make the Shenxiao 'Gate' feel its power, even if Leng Gufeng had ulterior motives, why not go along with it?

"Return to your Taoran Pavilion. From now on, without my permission, not a single step beyond its door," Nan Gong Yu suddenly stood, waved his hand at Shui Lianyue, and coldly ordered.

After Ye Junxuan's biological mother passed away, Ding Meilin went to great lengths to marry into the Ye family. Had Ye Lao Ye not set that "condition," Ding Meilin would never have to endure Ye Junxuan's sour face as she does now.

The group rested overnight. The next day, they launched a surprise attack on the ancient beasts of the Xuanwu and Qinglong clans near Zhuzhuo City. Though their results were not as good as yesterday's, they still eliminated four or five ten-thousand-year ancient beasts. What frustrated the Xuanwu and Qinglong clans was that Lin Yang came and went without a trace—there was no way to prepare for him.

"A spring full of troubles—is it wise to cause so many incidents?" Bao Yitong hesitated—targeting a sect might provoke the people to rebel; such events had happened throughout history, and whoever became the first to stick their head out always suffered first.

If you can't win, run—that's one of Jiu'er's principles; she would never wait here to be captured.

Otherwise, with so many people in Xianyang, how could it be so perfectly coincidental that someone's hand just happened to strike the target?

Li Guolou looked at Justin Reel and said, "Actually, I don't gamble—but I can read people." With that, Li Guolou bowed slightly and left the room where the sand crab gambling was taking place.

"Alright, then I'll sit on the ground too," Yelü Aogu gripped her skirt and leaned against the doorframe, sitting down.

Li Si frowned, caught the jade slip, and felt a faint unease. As soon as he held it, he instinctively probed it with his spiritual sense. Moments later, Li Si's expression turned wildly complex. He withdrew his spiritual sense and stared silently at the Left City Lord.

After I returned to the Underworld's realm, Yang Gong did not follow behind me—I floated alone through the air the entire way.

But since these scars can now be erased, why not do it? No one dislikes looking better.

In the past, she could still think of ways to save herself, but now she was so cold her thoughts had gone numb—her mind was a slurry, utterly useless.

For any reason, this wasteland was a dangerous place; those who dared come here were supremely confident in their cultivation, far stronger than ordinary cultivators.

Qi Shen was not impatient—he simply didn't want to waste time, so he compromised and spoke first.

Feng Xiaoyao's words satisfied the cultivators present; Wan Huan the Old Demon's expression eased slightly, and they immediately began discussing details. Li Si remained silent throughout, offering no strategy or participation.

"I'll go study for a while longer—let me activate the skill first!" Liu Bei said earnestly again.
