Chapter 53
Then Leng Feiyan went to ask the cleaner, from whom she learned some of their thoughts.
Whether in the Eastern Kingdom or the S Nation, once she called Grandpa Sikong Ao, outsiders would immediately think she was trying to climb the social ladder, complicating what should have been a simple relationship. This was also why Ji Yuxi had always been reluctant to reveal her connection with Mo Huaijin.
That sudden pang of anxiety had been so intense that Han Yang hadn’t yet gained the confidence to confront everything. Without hesitation, he quickly retreated, instantly returning to the rooftop of the Business Elite Tower.
Even in a previous life, facing enemies with a heart of iron and ruthless resolve, when confronted with the worldly sorrows unrelated to oneself, could one still feel a spark of compassion?
At one’s most vulnerable moments, sometimes just offering a bottle of mineral water—allowing someone to preserve a shred of dignity—can earn lasting gratitude.
Regardless, things had reached this point. Since there was no way to move forward, why not part on good terms?
At that time, Leng Feiyan ignored them, not paying much attention, since she had already won a considerable amount of money from them.
Even in competitions within the Forbidden Grounds, victories and defeats were mutual, and no precious magical artifacts had been lost.
Thinking this through, Han Yang set the virtual time for this mission scene within the system.
Xu Shu had anticipated this. Upon seeing Lü Bu charge out from the north gate, he quickly gave orders. Soon, Zhao Yun and Guan Yu appeared on either side, leading troops to block Lü Bu.
“Alright then.” Xuanyuan slowly approached, one hand resting on the sword hilt. The ancient Xuanyuan sword had long been attuned to his will. The moment he grasped the hilt, an inexplicable aura suddenly surged along the blade.
The long-haired, black-robed instructor, whose complexion was originally gloomy and spirits low, flickered with a trace of vitality in his hollow eyes upon hearing Lin Zhen’s question.

The next moment, the wealthy young heir spat as he charged again toward the alpaca beast, lifting his leg high, ready to deliver a fierce kick.
Bai Ya was momentarily stunned by the cheers outside, then recovered and covered her mouth, laughing softly.
But why was it like this? Why was she forcefully repelled after only venturing slightly deeper into the black mist, even sustaining serious injuries? Banruo’s palm was already fully immersed in the mist, yet she suffered no attack; instead, the energy seemed to be actively seeping into her body.
Liu Quansheng carried a wine cup and a jug, carefree as he sat down at another’s table.
Guo Jia issued the order to withdraw after nightfall, using darkness as the best cover. In Guo Jia’s view, having just captured Pengcheng, the Xuzhou troops were sure to be elated, and after a full day of fierce battle, they would be exhausted, with no energy to consider anything else.
The host’s expression changed instantly; he had underestimated the situation, mistaking a renowned member of the famed Huaxia Dragon Soul for an ordinary person, which left him feeling deeply ashamed.
In the year 210, Lü Zhuo launched another offensive with 200,000 troops, advancing directly toward Jingzhou to face Cao Cao and Liu Bei in a decisive battle. Liu Bei’s remaining 30,000 soldiers were nearly wiped out within three months, forcing Guan Yu to retreat to Xichuan.
She knew she had no power to resist. When she turned her head, she saw Ye Tian standing nearby, and her gaze grew anxious.
In contrast, in the new century of marriage freedom, despite vows of eternal love, six-figure dowries and million-dollar houses could not guarantee lifelong companionship.
If the spring aligns with Jia Yin and Yi Mao, summer with Bing Wu and Ding Si, autumn with Geng Xin You, and winter with Ren Zi and Gui Hai, especially when matching the lunar month, day, and star signs, it is even more auspicious.
Suddenly, the arena erupted in noise as Ye Wuhai’s treasured sword was kicked by Chen Jiannan, soaring into the air and falling off the stage.
As a playmate for nearly three years, Qin Ming naturally knew the martial technique Cao Youqian specialized in: the Shadowless Palm, a skill procured through the old Cao family patriarch’s connections.

FPX had Olaf and Renekton, two tough fighters who could both endure and strike in the mid-game. Without a new strategy, they would continue to be led by the nose.
Their impressive team performance over the past several seasons owed much to the strength of their teamwork.
Thus, the “Flying Divine Dragon” once again raised his sword to search for the cave where his fifth brother Sun Kexing had fallen, but still found nothing.
In Huacheng, ordinary workers earned only thirty to forty yuan a month, while dual-income families made roughly seventy to eighty yuan.
He was very dissatisfied with the current situation—he seemed capable of devouring his teachers at any time, yet there was still a distance between them.
Meng Xinghui smiled and clinked glasses with her; the two glass cups collided with a crisp sound, accompanied by Zhuang Jin’s bell-like laughter.
If the amount was one hundred thousand or five hundred thousand, then it would be two hundred thousand or a million, depending on your contribution to the TV station or the size of your end-of-month bonus.
Pan Xingguang waved his hands repeatedly; he could not let them know he couldn’t even afford a meal.
Upon entering and looking up, Taishi Kun was startled. There, on the carpet in the center of the living room, lay a sleeping man. Beside him stood an angry old man.
