Chapter 99: The Truth About Soul City

"Sorry!"

"There's no point agonizing over the reason anymore. All this old man needs to do now is remove the culprit behind this turmoil!" Sarutobi said in a deep voice.

Originally, Fu Qisheng could barely accept performing on the same stage, but when he heard that he had been placed in the same group as Li Xuechen, he could not accept it and immediately objected, demanding that the teams be reshuffled.

Liu Dadan had that sort of coarse, fearless daring; otherwise, he would never have come to the East Mountain Cemetery at midnight, the place the villagers spoke of only with terror.

With his current scant resources, Xiao Shiming had no right to negotiate at all; he could only be at the mercy of others.

An Qiu asked Si Yue tentatively, and Si Yue immediately put away the bullets in his hand and turned to glance at the second floor.

But halfway through the flight, Long Er came crashing down from above, gripping a rapidly spinning, blazing chakra sphere and pressing it toward his head.

Compared with the academy coaches, who were still somewhat skeptical, Qi Sheng and Smith both let out a breath of relief. If they had known earlier that An Yuexi had such a backup plan, they would not have had to keep their hearts suspended, worrying on her behalf and offending the coaches.

Lin Runing ended work early and went home, but there was no sign of Xiao Liyan or Lin Nian.

His rare outburst of anger made everyone present shiver to the bone. They all lowered their heads and did not dare speak, and even Manager Zhang was stunned, his expression momentarily blank.

He leaned forward, lowered his center of gravity, and the instant the iron ball came flying at him, he planted both hands on the ground and flipped high into the air.

After the greeting, Lin Feng charged straight at Liu Yun. This time he struck first, the long spear in his hand roaring toward Liu Yun like a dragon, mighty and overwhelming.

"Either a rat or a scorpion; if not a scorpion, then a centipede." The fat man rattled off three guesses in one breath.

With his eyes half closed, the hand holding the swirling water current gave a light sweep, and the vortex shot swiftly toward that fishlike monster.

"Very good. Since you have found your direction, start practicing." Mu Zifei said indifferently. Before he knew it, Mu Zifei had become immersed in the feeling of being a teacher for the first time.

After all the paperwork was completed, Han Ke awkwardly drove the million-dollar luxury car out of the dealership at a leisurely pace. Seeing that it was still early, he suggested taking a spin around the nearby ring road. First, it would let him grow familiar with the new car; second, he could use the opportunity to ask Zheng Qing what was really troubling her.

As for Zong Changsheng's move, Zhou Zheng did not find anything improper about it. He only took it as Zong Changsheng realizing he could not withstand Zhou Zheng's blade and shifting from offense to defense.

"Brother, are you all right?" Qi Lin was covered in wounds, a pitiable sight so terrible that even Qi Qi felt her heart ache at the sight.

When Niu Jiaming suddenly said that, both of them went weak at the knees and hurriedly dropped to the ground to beg for mercy. They had also heard of Niu Jiaming's ruthless methods before, and at once felt both regret and fear. They should never, ever have posted that thread and provoked that demon.

"Whoever fails this time will be the eternal sinner of the Northern Wastelands. I trust you will not be careless," Xian Zhen comforted them.

Was he still trying to say that he was in the wrong? But he had loved, and once he loved, he loved to the end. Even if it was wrong, he would go wrong all the way. Hua Qianshi smiled and said nothing.

At those words, Lin Yun truly did not know what he should say anymore. He could only stare blankly at the two of them, without any reaction for a long time.

"Liunian, listen to my explanation, all right?" Shengshi's tone had already become pleading, his weakness laid bare and impossible to hide.

"Of course I know how to take care of a child. Otherwise, how could I have raised one this big?" Tu Baobao said with a pout.
