Chapter 243: 237 Earning a Bowl of Rice

Last time was Spring Festival, this time it’s Labor Day.

Tencent quietly upgraded its own QQ Doctor to version 4.0 and renamed it “QQ Computer Manager,” adding services similar to 360 Security Guard’s mainstream features, such as cloud scanning and plugin cleanup.

This is undoubtedly another offensive against the internet security software sector.

In less than half a year, the situation that had just calmed down took on new changes.

This immediately drew the ire of 36

The red-clad man rubbed the emerald “jade” pendant in his palm, on which clearly were carved the four characters “Seven Stars Chest,” his eyes growing ever deeper.

Zhang Shishuang tried to force her way in, but the Emperor had already issued an order: anyone wishing to visit the Empress must have the Emperor’s personal decree; without it, even the Jade Emperor himself would be barred entry.

Yet her hopes dwindled day by day. Wu Qin judged Luo Li’s body was certainly fine—he had also checked Rui and Yingming, and they were fine too. Old Wu Qin felt he had found a new research target.

“I just give people advice and take a fee—that’s only fair,” Fu Yunnu said, as if it were self-evident.

Xuanji stole a glance at Li Mi’s taut, well-defined chest muscles beneath his robe—no matter how good his build, it was still hidden under his long gown. As the most beautiful man in the Immortal Realm, he was undoubtedly Tan Lu’s preferred type; judging by how tense Tan the Guard had been toward him in the mortal world, he had full confidence he could defeat these men.

On these Taoists, Liu Shuang noticed one identical thing: each had a faint mark on their arms, but when they died, the mark gradually vanished.

“If you’re not going to cling to me, then leave—why are you still standing here? I’m in a hurry to get things done,” Mo Mo said, turning to walk away.

“Don’t worry, Wei Xuan said she’d ask when she got back—it should be no problem,” Wang Dong replied vaguely, then sat down on his chair to rest.

At this point, Mo Mo dared not be careless; he quietly turned his awareness inward. Following the White Crane Immortal Scripture’s method, he slowly circulated the qi in his dantian. As the dantian qi moved, discomfort gradually arose in his body.

“Isn’t this ‘the capable rise, the incompetent fall’? I’m stronger than all those squad leaders—I don’t need training at all,” Lin Lei said, though he was lazy, his eyes sparkled with unmistakable confidence.

"How can friendship just disappear like that? What I meant was, I treat, you pay," Lin Lei laughed, hugging Wang Jilan; the ambiguous tone left everyone too embarrassed to meet each other's eyes.

At the entrance to Silver Valley, the bushes swayed gently, the distinctive panting breath of wild beasts drawing near, like wind rustling through the woods.

The clamor from below never ceased; everyone was stirred by the news, and even many VIPs rose from their seats.

In the scorching summer, on the Saren Plains beside the Su Shui River in the Kowind Territory, a vast army had set up camp along the riverbank. Their forward watchtowers had been built ten li downstream, scouts had ventured fifty li out to reconnoiter enemy movements, and patrol squads within the camp never ceased.

As the artillery fire ceased, a long line of Japanese soldiers charged forward; the Japanese lieutenant in the center, waving his command sword, shouted, “Sakka-dii!”

“Snot-nose! You just run to Mommy for help—you’re a pig!” William, flustered and unable to find words for his rage, used Misha’s favorite phrase.

After bursting into the room, their eyes immediately fixed on Qing Xu, scanning him intently.

Moreover, this massive wave had precisely severed all contact between Colonel Dunp’s main fleet and the two fleets fighting on the flank of the orc warships.

“We truly don’t have the kind of exotic flower you’re looking for,” Jiang Hui, as Lin Lei’s old acquaintance, had also changed how she addressed him.
