Chapter 64: I Am the Boss

Ye Chenghu grabbed the work uniform from the table and threw it at Ye Chen.

“You keep complaining, but you’ve been running away for five years and are completely out of touch with society. Even a job cleaning toilets is more than you deserve!”

Ye Chen didn’t reach out to catch the uniform; he let it fall to his feet.

If Ye Chenghu had arranged a regular staff position...

Earlier, hearing Mo Hansheng planning to target a late-stage Golden Core cultivator, it nearly leapt straight out from the Spirit Beast Bracelet.

Lin Feng could now be described with a very fitting phrase: he had entered the wolf’s den.

Now, Lin Feng already possessed a metallic attribute ability core; four other attribute cores remained. If the National Policy Council contributed one, then only three of the five attributes would be left to collect.

Xu Xinian had been bargaining aimlessly, hoping for a bigger discount, but not minding if there wasn’t one. To her delight, she actually managed to save more than a dollar.

So, although these Grandmasters before her were strong, encountering Zeng Guangliang left them feeling helpless and unable to voice their suffering.

He opened his eyes and surveyed the room, considering that, for now, he was inside the Qiong Tower, and any anomalies in his qi sea or secrets of his cultivation method should not be revealed.

Shen Zhiyu saw this man deduce her identity from a few subtle details, and also realized there were other survivors besides herself. Startled, she looked up, her clear black-and-white eyes meeting his peach blossom gaze.

Chi Yu’s stare was terrifying. Though she wore slippers, her aura was cold and powerful, inspiring fear all around.

“So, shall we go for afternoon tea now?” Kuang Jingjue checked the time and suggested.

Liu Chengpeng and Liu Changhai’s families were both dumbfounded, faces full of shock as they witnessed everything before them.

Feeling the immense oppressive aura of Axe Mountain, many clung to the belief that it was better to err on the side of caution, so they purchased the talismans from their senior. The transactions happened swiftly, and many people bought the talismans with cash.

No, these people are reckless and don’t value their lives. One must never let their guard down, nor show mercy—otherwise, only disaster awaits.

Watching Bai Lilan’s fiery rage, Bai Lijun suddenly felt that this was a good thing. His eldest sister was always cold and unflappable; nothing could faze her, and no one could ever trap her. Now, with the arrival of the unparalleled young master, seeing his sister lose her temper might just be the start of something wonderful.

At this moment, Xiao Lingxiao appeared calm on the surface, but in reality, she was fiercely debating the situation with the Divine Wolf via secret sound transmission.

“To bring the dead back to life... If such a forbidden art truly exists, it’s certainly formidable,” Xiao Lingxiao murmured.

Indeed, whether grievances were settled was no longer important. Everyone present at the execution ground had heard Du Yu’s skyward howl—just to see Lady Zhuang once, to die without regret. That was the burning topic.

Though asking the Empress Dowager for help was dangerous, it was a path that had to be taken. Moreover, Qiu Ziyao was exceptionally talented and happened to win the Empress Dowager’s favor. With this, whether for fame or benefit, the Empress Dowager would not stand idly by.

Xia Ranqi thought to herself that being careless and disagreeing were two different matters. However, Xia Ye had said before that reciprocity was the basic etiquette for two nations to coexist.

“Screw you. You’re just dreaming. Too bad—Cheng Xia snuffed you out in a second, and you got kicked out.” The speaker shrugged helplessly as he spoke.

With a flick of his wrists, two items from the Sevenfold Golden Ring appeared in his hands. Invincible, he handed them to the two princesses.

“Ming’er feared that the Emperor’s body wouldn’t harmonize well with the Primordial Celestial Crystal, so she brought the finest nectar and jade elixir, precious even to herself, for you to use.”
