Chapter 57 I Will Give You Half a Month

However, Tang Yu did not block Lou Xizhou’s number again, mainly out of fear that he would investigate her.

It would not be fun at all to have her family background dug up.

Yet Lou Xizhou had no intention of forcing her to show herself; instead, he simply sent her a message.

[I will give you half a month.]

And that was the end of it.

Looking at this sentence, Tang Yu could imagine countless possible continuations, but she had no way of knowing which one would actually follow after half a month.

"Care whatever it is, once half—"

Covering his eyes with spiritual force, Li Yan looked toward the origin of the universe and discovered that the soul power of the universe's origin had markedly decreased. He was not truly uninjured; rather, he had converted his injuries into consumption. In fact, the consumption of soul power was equivalent to sustaining injuries. If the soul power were entirely depleted, the life of the universe's origin would likewise reach its end.

Chen Fan shrugged indifferently, leaving the three low-ranking lackeys completely bewildered. Their eyes conveyed only one single thought.

"Right, let me ask you, how is your control practice coming along?" Li Yan asked while chewing his food. This was the matter he truly cared about. If Shi Mengmeng had achieved another breakthrough, it would mean there were still realms beyond the Strong Control tier.

Especially the dramatic way Chu Feng and the others had made their entrance just moments ago—descending from the sky like that was something ordinary people could never accomplish.

"They will definitely all sell out. Since my lord has prepared so much, I bet that shortly, people will actually start fighting over these items," Mengying said with a smile.

However, Zhang Xu was not without conditions. The garrison camp was tasked with clearing out the bandit infestation in southern Jin. Most importantly, the Shanxi merchants were deeply dissatisfied with the rampant banditry in Pingyang and demanded that the Pingyang region be completely purged within a month. Although Yang旭 guessed that the Hou family was pulling the strings behind the scenes, he readily accepted his superior's command.

Yang Xu used his lips to kiss away her tears and removed her clothes. Her once smooth and delicate body was now reduced to a skeleton of sharp, protruding bones. Heartbroken to the verge of tears, Yang Xu gently lifted her frail body and melted her into his embrace, for this would forever remain the warmest place on earth.

Especially Qiu Li; he paced back and forth anxiously beside Qiu Yan, then sat back down by his side, checking his pulse at frequent intervals.

With Yang Xu absent from the county office, Zhao He could only hold down the fort there. Although he understood nothing of official business, he simply listened intently to whatever was discussed. This was what Yang Xu had taught him: by listening and observing enough times, one would naturally learn. Besides, there was a clerk to assist him, and his presence also served to keep a supervisory eye on Xue Chengzhang.

"Hearing you put it that way, it really is true!" Fire Feather thought back carefully and found that things were indeed just as Lu Feng had said.

"Sister, don't worry. I only said that because I'm confident." Red Pupil grinned broadly. He was genuinely unafraid, as he could sense no murderous intent from the opponent; at worst, they would merely capture him. But for his sister's sake, he had to buy some time.

If I hadn't taken Bru into the universe ring, I reckon he would have caused quite a commotion all the way through.

Mu Xichen shook his drenched hair, and a gust of cold wind took the opportunity to slip inside, attempting to steal the last remnants of warmth within the room. Jiang Xuejuan let out an uncomfortable cough, feeling a churning, miserable sensation in her stomach.

"Black Diamond Grid, come out! What should we do? She has ruined our house!" White Diamond Grid turned her head and shouted toward Black Diamond Grid again.

"When did I ever sneer at disappointment? Besides, when did I ever say that the second soul summoning technique summons her soul?" A hibernating beast stirred in the depths of Mu Ai's eyes, emerging from its cave to bathe in the dawn light.

Swallowing a few more medicinal pills, he emitted billowing waves of icy mist from his body. He intended to use ice-type magic to resist this fiery prison! When the chilling mist met the flames, it generated massive energy fluctuations! A tremendous vortex of energy whipped up, and for a moment, the speed at which the fiery prison closed in slowed down considerably.

"Wow... ha... oh..." What-the-Hell Niba and several top-tier experts suddenly made their move, subduing seven of their fellow experts—all of whom were the ones who had attacked earlier. Lacking in martial prowess and completely unprepared for their own comrades to betray them, the fellows cried out miserably as they were captured.
