Chapter 39: Redemption Voucher

Shi Ran ran to the bathroom because she had not forgotten that the bedroom was under surveillance. To avoid being noticed by Zuo Yelin and subsequently mocked mercilessly, she could only sneak into the bathroom to do what she needed to do. After psyching herself up, she returned to the bedroom, lay on the bed, and soon drifted off into a light sleep accompanied by faint snoring. The next day, she was awakened by a text message from Secretary Su.

...

For instance, the sensational scandal from years ago involving Zhang Yu accusing Huang Jianzhong of sexual misconduct was just like that. At the time, people online joked that she had "poor performance in bed" and let him "have his way for free," which caused Zhang Yu to drop all pretenses and expose everything.

Zhuang Jing’s relaxed tone helped the middle-aged man calm down significantly. When he saw the zombies on the ground whose skulls had been crushed by Zhuang Jing, his emotions stirred once more, but he proceeded to slowly walk out of the storage room.

Bao Zheng suddenly stopped in his tracks, his bloodshot eyes full of murderous intent, yet his tone remained unnaturally calm and icy.

It turned out that the young man in grey was none other than Kong Boxia, son of Kong Fangshu. He was the grandfather of Confucius and a man of exceptional talent.

Now that she had become the brand ambassador, she and her agent were so thrilled they could wake up laughing even in their sleep.

She had barely touched down, and before she could even get a clear look at her surroundings, someone shouted Chen Mo’s name, making him feel as though he had a multitude of friends.

Your Keeper, Shishi: It’s as if you’re all dirt poor. Do you want to bet that I’ll send each of you a Mercury retrograde just to make sure you really are?

In an instant, sword energy flew across the volcanic lake, the void roared, flames filled the sky, and dragon howls echoed repeatedly. The magma churned into giant waves, raging incessantly; it was no exaggeration to say that heaven and earth were turned upside down.

Your Keeper, Shishi: What kind of pipe dreams are you having? I have a class reunion at Junhuang tomorrow, and I plan to explore the market of the younger generation.

Li Cheng nodded. He could imagine the situation; if even Yong'en City was nearly breached by the Red Tide, survival would be even more difficult for those without the protection of city walls and formations.

At this moment, Jun Yongxian’s eyes shone brilliantly, his aura as deep and vast as the ocean, ready to erupt at any given moment.

"You disturb my peace, and yet you have the gall to be so righteous?" The Red Flood Dragon was clearly startled, not expecting another of its kind to appear here, let alone a male.

The floor of the palace was paved with a unique type of purple crystal, radiating mysterious energy.

"Although this Hundred-Illusion Immortal Robe is a mid-grade magical artifact, its quality is actually approaching that of a high-grade one. It not only possesses powerful defensive capabilities but also repels dust, water, and fire. Furthermore, as its name suggests, it can transform into any shape according to the owner's will," Li Jincheng introduced.

"But Brother Gao was so strange today, telling me so many private secrets about the Netherworld." Li Cheng recalled the conversation he had with Gao Dacai while they were waiting in line at the City Lord’s Mansion to collect their rewards after gathering the soul crystals.

At this moment, Tong Shan’s eyes were filled with shock and terror; the aura erupting from this young man was enough to crush him into a pulp.

This ancient Black Tortoise had already been a Divine Emperor realm powerhouse during the archaic era and was a loyal subordinate of the Martial Emperor.

Before he could finish his sentence, Ye Han dealt a lethal blow, striking Lin Yang directly in the dantian with his fist.

At this moment, Duan Tianding slowly crawled up from the ground. He was covered in bright red liquid, his hair disheveled, and his face appeared incredibly hideous, like a man-eating demon—truly terrifying.

However, with the earlier incident of the broken engagement weighing on her, Lady Li felt a layer of apprehension; after all, she feared that such a thing might happen again.

In truth, Cheng Kuang had another plan. He felt a deep sense of loyalty toward Anding Prefecture. To preserve it, his only option now was to fight with all his might and devise a way to counter Liu Feng. If he succeeded, Anding Prefecture would remain his territory, intact; if he failed, he would simply depart for the afterlife and surrender the prefecture to Liu Feng.
