Chapter 113: A Show of Force

Lu Fei stared at the transfer on his phone, speechless. That was it?

“Two thousand yuan and you want to buy one night with me?”

“Don’t put it so crudely. I was only acting for Dong Yuxiang’s sake!”

“I don’t care whether you were acting or not. What about the triple overtime pay you promised me before?”

The terrifying phenomena that had covered every inch of the Divine Kingdom of the Celestial Court began to slowly fade, vanishing without a trace as if they had never appeared at all.

Because after Lin Weiwei let him go, he felt that she had done it deliberately to make him lower his guard. So he planned to return first to the Pangu Clan’s gathering place, tell the elders about it, and see how they intended to handle the matter.

“Death... is it? So the first two options both require someone to die, right?” Aike asked, his face darkening.

Flying at full speed, Fang Cheng reached the hearse in less than a minute and dropped down to cut it off.

He could move it. Grom was confident in his own strength. It was only a large tree, nothing difficult. The real problem was that the theft could not be discovered, and such a huge thing still had to be quietly hauled away. That was the hard part.

Just as the crowd was growing quiet, Zhang Jie and another mercenary walked over. As he passed by Zhan Lan, he reached out to slap her butt, and the force behind it was no light one.

Only then did Yan Yu look toward Xia Yan. At that moment, Xia Yan was unmistakably that upper-level Immortal, and with the Blazing Radiance Throne in his hands, his strength, even if not yet equal to that of a demigod, was probably not far off.

Among them were a large number of reassigned agents. All of them had been temporarily transferred out of the Intelligence Department, formally severing their organizational ties there and becoming people with no official status at all, ready to follow the premier to Mars.

“That would be too much trouble. Just the application alone would give me a headache, and there’s still all that cargo to transport. I’m not going looking for that kind of hassle.” Arisa kept shaking her head.

Although Zhang Zhijie had formed that cavalry formation, he did not immediately lead the charge. Even with the Fujian government troops in that state, a cavalry assault would have broken through with ease. The reason he held back was that he could see the Fujian soldiers opposite him truly had no fighting spirit at all.

If Yang Chong heard those words, there was an eighty percent chance that, with ghostly energy invading his mind and warping his spirit, he would strike first and kill him.

Liansheng was grief-stricken beyond measure. He shut himself away in a secret chamber for three whole days. When he finally emerged, he reported to the court that, because of the limits of his position, he no longer needed to take part in the court’s daily governance. From then on, he would merely reorganize the nation’s religious orders and oversee the many cultivators.

A slow song suddenly began to play in the bar. It was an especially sorrowful tune, and whether it was meant to match Chen Long’s mood or not, he tipped his head back and drained one glass of liquor, then filled himself another and kept drinking.

For a cultivator like Nangong Qian, who already had a foundation in body refinement, if she wanted a regenerated limb to recover to its former level, she would have to go through the same training all over again before there would even be a chance.

“When I came over, I already sensed it. I just didn’t want to startle the snake, and I had you with me. This time, besides exorcising the monster, I also have to make sure you’re safe,” Feng Wuya said.

“Perfect!” the Bliss Young Master laughed loudly. He drew a wine gourd from his robes, took a few hearty swallows, then opened his mouth and spat out a burst of wine mist. It met the fierce wind blown by Li Zheng in midair, and the two forces locked into a stalemate. The Bliss Young Master then strode several steps through the air before landing on the high platform.

In the year 530 of the New World Era, the Demon Realm announced to the entire world that the shuttle had returned to Earth, and the Shuttle Project had been a complete success.

Now that Dak had returned, Vanessa had no time for pleasantries and went straight to the point, asking what had happened exactly.
