Chapter 118: This Is the Only Matter Worth Discussing

With no income now, she could only live off her savings. Even if there were an income, it wouldn't be given to her.

"However, if Madam Wen wishes to switch sides now, I am willing to accept." She extended an olive branch, leaving it to Shen Xianglian to decide whether to take it.

The light in the latter's pupils wavered like a candle flame trembling in a breeze, before flickering out a moment later.

"Anyone can paint a grand picture, promising..."

The four of them could not wait to return to Yuanlou Village in the dark, traveling on the ox cart they had brought from the village to the army camp.

Just as the two were happily discussing their grand plans for the brothel, a discordant sound suddenly emanated from Cheng Chumo's belly.

The Mink Tribe was truly a force of immense power! Any ambitious person, provided they had the chance to bring such a force under their command, would likely not give it up easily.

Vlad shook his head and turned a corner. The view suddenly opened up before him: in a wide, empty space sat a massive ship, its black dragon-skull flag fluttering in the wind. The ship was named the Platinum Drage, the flagship of the Fire Dragon Pirates and the only flying pirate ship in the world.

Looking at the other ships nearby, they were now far too busy desperately fleeing to pay any attention to the Matsuura. Yet, these ships were also suffering from intense artillery fire; shells rained down from the sky, and one ship already had several gaping holes visible in its hull.

Seeing this, Li Yang felt a surge of alarm, and he could not help but recall how the thunder in the Sea of Thunder had paused several times before.

Lian Haiping waved his hand, and a streak of pitch-black demonic energy darted into the skeleton of the green bone demon. The energy slithered in and out of the jagged bones like a spirit snake, restoring the demon's body.

Lu Ping already had a grasp of the situation; it seemed Ximen Qing had come to probe his secrets. He had always remained a figure of mystery within Qinghe County, and sometimes, mystery itself was a form of power—how could he let it be easily seen through?

When the large vat was moved down, the soldiers surrounded it with their rifles leveled, and the lethargic young man from the first vehicle stepped out.

After wolfing down five or six eggs, Wang Xingxin summoned Wang Er, and the two of them rode on horseback toward Chang'an City.

"My mother's father—my grandfather—demanded an astronomical bride price from my father. My father and grandfather bankrupted themselves, yet it still wasn't enough to pay my grandfather, so they eventually had to take out loans and go into debt with the help of relatives to pay it off."

He had not yet recovered from the shock of the earlier attack, and he was currently channeling his dark arts. Every sorcerous technique he knew was being unleashed at this moment.

Furthermore, those who could appear here were no simple characters; they all represented their own factions and were formidable individuals even among those in the Void-Breaking Realm.

Life is truly full of possibilities. Where exactly did Shi Yan choose to plant those cacti if she managed to kill them entirely? Finally, she understood why Shi Yan had managed to kill all those other flowers.

The four were truly shocked, for the momentum created by this lineup was terrifying. Anyone would be afraid, and they were no exception.

Therefore, for the most part, Li Weidong understood Director Wang's good intentions and did his best to treat those second-generation heirs.

"But surely that doesn't mean this place should be almost entirely flowers, does it?" Logically speaking, shouldn't Yun Xingtian have stopped planting flowers after the first time he suffered a loss?

Dazhuang had not wanted to come to his enemy Wang Jicai's house today, but since Dabao had asked, he couldn't refuse, and so he had come for the first time, gritting his teeth and feeling extremely reluctant.

First came the posturing, laying the groundwork for his Ghost Catcher trial. Truth be told, his seniority in the Yin Law Bureau was indeed rather shallow, and the importance of building momentum could help him compensate for that.

Qiu Xingyu adjusted the rearview mirror, met Tang Yun's eyes, and maintained that oily, merchant-like smile.
