Chapter Twenty-Five: The Demon God Emperor Feng Xiu’s Speculation
But the truth was, they made off with over a hundred cups of Moonlight Brew, both eating and taking whatever they pleased. Naturally, this drove the Moon Demon God Agares into a furious rage. He disregarded all concern for his dignity and ran to complain to Demon God Emperor Fengxiu, hoping the Emperor would deal with those infuriating little brats. There was nothing else he could do—he certainly couldn’t bypass Fengxiu to strike at A-Bao himself! Not to mention, Mendi was the cherished child of the Star Demon God Vasak.
In some ways, Agares could only endure.
No sooner had the words been spoken than Salamander Hanzo, wielding his sickle-axe, charged at the Puppet Master. Confronted by the assault of a demigod, the Puppet Master was understandably flustered, but nevertheless managed to launch a swift counterattack.
Yan Xiaoxiao insisted on being discharged from the hospital. Jiang Yue and the newly arrived Xu Yi, unable to talk her out of it, had no choice but to complete the paperwork for her release.
Ruoxin ignored her, staring in silence at the river’s surging, restless surface, which showed not the slightest sign of disturbance.
At such a time, indeed, what Colors truly needed to face were these inevitable matters, which truly demanded earnest attention.
Sitoya Ling shot Chu Haoran a glare, snorted softly, and turned away, refusing to acknowledge him further.
Along the journey, aside from the night when Gaoguan brought Tang Lichuan to recount to Chang Yuantu and the others the circumstances of Fengchang’s death, they had barely exchanged a word with Feng Tongyi since.
“That Tang Lichuan… is he really that capable?” Zhu Chuanjia scoffed, but Xiao Bie didn’t answer him immediately; seeing this, Zhu only looked more suspicious and clicked his tongue, falling silent.
Before he could close his eyes, Jiangnan, standing nearby, grinned widely. From within his body came resounding booms, and an even more violent, overwhelming force of attraction surged forth.
If word of this got out, it would undoubtedly cause a tremendous upheaval, utterly altering the present situation.
But if it was the latter—if Jiangnan’s future was to be lost in chaos—then matters would become far more complicated.
No matter how ordinary this middle-aged man might appear, however lacking in authority, he was still Hai Hualong. In all of Haizhou, only a handful could match his stature.
Having come to work early that morning, he had already thought of her many times, so her sudden appearance filled him with delight.
Quietly, he slipped on his brass knuckles and circled Chen An cautiously, waiting for him to reveal an opening.
Grandfather Yi Zhonghai was dumbfounded by these words, never expecting Director Zhang truly to have come for this reason.
Following the principle of leniency for those who confess, Chen Fan poured out everything he had experienced in his dream.
Now that the green hat had been placed upon his head and he’d become the laughingstock of the whole village, there was no way he could swallow his pride.
Moreover, Green Fatty’s traits were not limited to the physical: even in his inner world, the angrier he became, the more terrifying he was.
“All it takes is a little sincerity, a genuine heart, and true love remembered deeply—that’s enough,” Zhen Yangwei continued.
Once all was settled, Jason returned the spoils to Louis, tossed the signal transmitter casually into a waste bin, and invited Louis and Sophia to ride home with him.
At the restaurant entrance, Lin Luocheng stood stiffly, his fists clenched tight. Behind him, Lin Qinbai cast an indignant glance at the woman making a scene.
After Wang Chen hung up, the phone rang again. Seeing it was the same unfamiliar number, he hesitated briefly, but finally decided to answer.
In one case, power surged forth in the midst of fierce battle—like the inner energy of martial heroes, enhancing the wielder’s strength and dealing damage to monsters and demons. It was, in fact, the very technique Li Xuanxiao had once used to quell monsters across the land.
After sobering up from last night’s drunkenness, he had first joined the laborers in the shantytown, searching high and low for the mysterious creature that had appeared out of nowhere. Their efforts fruitless, he then busied himself tending to the funeral arrangements for Old He’s family.
