Chapter 39: Zhang Liang, a Man of His Word

Around three in the morning, the trio gradually woke up. After a simple meal, they climbed into their own car and drove toward the east side of the town.

“Once we catch him, don’t stop me. Let me hit him with a stun gun first,” Zhang Liang instructed the other two. He couldn’t stand those who went back on their word. If you’re unwilling, then don’t agree in the first place. But to promise and then renege—what kind of game is that?

“After we find out where Ramira is, he’s all yours,” Wan Xiaoling replied indifferently. For people like him, whose hands are clean anyway?

As Tian Xuanzhi finished speaking, the onlookers around them all wore expressions of sympathy.

“Remember, you can use illusion magic to find me anytime, but you must agree on a time yourselves, otherwise the other side won’t know.” Ida Shu stressed once more, then closed his eyes. The entire virtual scenario began to blur until it vanished completely.

“Hmph! I never said that. Don’t try to pin it on me!” Li Dongyang paused and let out a heavy sigh.

Wu Cuo immediately took photos of the card number, receipt, and figures, and sent the card number to Jin Ziduo, hoping he could help investigate.

After walking for about an hour, the four encountered nothing—not even a living creature, let alone a spirit beast.

In that hazy moment, I fell asleep and had a dream. I dreamt Jiang Yuhan slipped into my bed.

Similarly, Judge Zhao only said that the Third Princess’s untimely death was caused by that bout of scarlet fever. She seemed better this morning, perhaps just a brief resurgence, and after awakening, her constant crying was simply because she was in great discomfort, making her impossible to soothe.

“With this general protecting you, how could there be so much danger?” Fang Ao shook his head and strode toward Qian.

“Ling Tian, go to hell!” Confronted by Ling Tian’s terrifying thunder, Yi Shengxue had lost all reason, her expression twisted in madness.

“You're still trying to accuse Lady Shu Fei? Lady Shu Fei is a proper woman—how could she ask you to do something outside her duties?” Li Huiqin always enjoyed speaking up at moments like these.

Helen’s heart now held only awe and fear toward Ron. This emotion was much like what she once felt for that distant lord, but multiplied many times over.

The glow from the Iron Shell Pupa’s body grew increasingly intense, even overpowering the light emitted by all the other pupae evolving throughout the dense forest.

She showed no reaction, staring at the ledger until she was dizzy, yet unable to look away. Her mind was frustrated, and she didn’t even want to lift her head.

Having been evil spirits for so long, the two had lived for years in a dark, cold, oppressive world, never experiencing any warmth.

Gazing at the empty parking lot, Lin Xiu shook his head. He thought to himself that logging in at the parking lot every time wasn’t a solution. Today, he was determined to secure a room no matter what.

As a merchant, Lin Xiu had recently received an invitation from a friend to attend a wedding in the village.

“At night, none of you may leave the cemetery, but you can patrol or familiarize yourselves with your duties inside. Sometimes civilians come here; if it’s at night, you must keep them outside.”

Maki Fujiwara pressed her forehead to Hideki Kanzaki’s, closed her eyes, and parted her red lips as if she were about to say something.

During self-study, the desks of front and back rows were pushed together. But since the number of rows in the class was odd, the last row had to join laterally.

The large dagger paused slightly after slicing into the true qi barrier, then, just as Niu Er worried, the true qi was gradually split apart by the keen blade.

The white surrender flag atop the city wall fluttered vigorously. The open city gate left Lü Bu’s army in astonishment, unable to fathom what was happening.

Perhaps this was the privilege of the Council of Elders? Chen Shihao shook his head, put his odds and ends into the storage locker, and when he found the last two solar crystals, he didn’t hesitate, placing them inside. Then he pressed the launch button on the screen, and the hatch slowly closed.
