Chapter 28: Hidden Behind the Back

"But didn't Master say he wanted to keep him alive?"

"As things stand, keeping him may bring us a great deal of trouble. I will take full responsibility and explain it to Master myself."

Shen Hua glanced at Jiang Huaiyu's waist and added, "That is a nice sachet."

Jiang Huaiyu nervously unhooked the sachet and tucked it into his robes.

"He was injured today, which will make it easier for you to act. However, that is the Ministry of Justice, guarded by many government officials, so be extra careful."

"Rest assured."

The name "Tianyou City" was something Li Zhi had first heard from the lips of the Blood Bat Dharma King, Hong Hai, who himself hailed from within that very city. Before departing, Li Zhi had specifically sought out Hong Hai to inquire about the state of Tianyou City.

Besides, there were still several plates left on the table. It must be said, the quality of the dishware at Four Seasons like Spring was quite good; even after smashing it against Boss Zhao’s face—causing his nose to gush blood—and seeing it clatter to the floor, the plate remained intact. Of course, the thick wool carpet covering the floor had something to do with that.

"Dad, we cannot just leave like this. It’s all too vague. We need to leave with our heads held high. I want to completely settle the score with this Iron-Crutch Li, Jiao Daming, and the rest of them. Only then will we leave that machine graveyard with our chests puffed out!" Chai Hua said, deeply moved.

"Boom!" Several figures emerged from the glacial river right in front of Terumi Mei and her companions. Huge cracks appeared in the ice, which would be unimaginable for an ordinary person to cause, but Terumi Mei had seen enough of the world that she paid no mind to the ice, focusing instead on the figures emerging from the depths.

Before Yang Zhenhan could finish his sentence, Miao Ruolan corrected him: "If you wish to follow me from now on, stop calling me Master. Call me Mistress. You have only one master, and that is Brother Zhao. Do you understand?" It was time to set the rules so he would know how to conduct himself.

After the meal, the club manager arranged a room for Chai Hua. As it happened, there was a half-room available just below Xiaomeng’s, so Chai Hua made do with that.

The branch in his hand clattered onto the snow. Gong Qianzhu was snapped out of his trance, staring blankly at him, a flicker of incredulous remorse flashing in his eyes.

By the time Geng Jianguo emerged from the alley clutching the collar of the petty thief, Sun Xiangdong had already arrived at the alley entrance with a group of men, accompanying his younger sister, Sun Guixiang.

The experts of West Cliff Lake knew the terror of Buddhist and Taoist willpower. Once eroded by the demonic sounds of the Buddhist and Taoist arts, one could only become a devout follower, forever subject to their whims.

The other party had stolen Cheng Shiqi’s phone and kept people tailing her. Once they confirmed she had gone out to purchase a new one, they set this trap, intending to ensnare Li Tianyi.

Because Wang Dao had long since seen that Emperor Tai'an intended to use this opportunity to suppress the Wang family, he decided to resign from his post to ensure the family would not be crushed entirely.

The visible opposition had all been gathered together to "retire," and Chai Lingwu had even thoughtfully provided a few sets of mahjong for the retired cadres to amuse themselves with. Cui Zhiyuan’s confidants kept a firm watch over them there.

It looked nothing like a man-made structure; it was purely solemn, chilling, and pitch-black, more like a divine palace built to worship some transcendental entity.

Ever since he learned to run, Jin Chanzi had been clinging to Huo Taixian, spending his days eating and drinking in the courtyard.

After the car came to a stop, Rui and Dr. Germann stepped out. Pointing to the vehicle, the doctor said proudly.

Having said this, Tao Wen glanced at Jiang Tong, and the two of them walked toward the front desk, ignoring Yang Xingguang, who stood there in a daze.

The Sea of Thunder was not entirely composed of lightning; it also contained suspended boulders, floating islands, and even the ruins of ancient battlefields.

Although he knew his strength was insufficient, he would never give up. He would continue to fight, even if he were to be swallowed by the sea.

Old Man Zhang handed the fake secret recipe to Liu San, indicating that they could turn the tables on their enemies. The company would arrange for people to guard him day and night to ensure he would not be harmed by any underhanded schemes.
