Chapter 52 The House Collapsed
Ye Chen’s face was filled with worry as he anxiously asked Ye Xue, “Xiao Xue, are you and Mom alright?”
Through the phone, Ye Xue burst into tears.
“Brother, the house we live in—the wall collapsed, and the roof was blown off by the wind!”
...
The Crimson Feather swam for a while, but Zhuge Liang noticed that the distance between himself and the ancient tree seemed to remain unchanged.
Zhuo Kai, wearing a hat, was driving a covered four-wheeled electric car, sipping lemon tea and wandering aimlessly through the streets. When he felt his phone vibrate, he immediately pulled it out and opened his inbox.
“So how do you plan to deal with those thousands of Silver Night Bats?” Jennifer asked anxiously.
On the Heavenly Stairway, Cangcuo Mingjing had already reached the seventh resting platform. Her face was pale as snow, her condition clearly poor.
So those few Scorpion Monsters, taking advantage of Zhuge Liang and Meng Qi’s bickering, began to slowly retreat.
As they spoke, they approached Yun Zi, displaying an intimate familiarity. This remark made Pu Xun seem overly cautious; the awkwardness shifted to him, his expression both amused and embarrassed, which made Yun Zi laugh as well.
The sudden arrival of Bai Ye and Da Gu took even Hui, the mediator, by surprise—after all, she had only just sent the message. On the other side, Sakabashi Mitsuo was even less prepared; by the time he realized what was happening and tried to dodge the attack, it was already too late. The Hyper Beam struck his right shoulder directly.
At this moment, Zhuge Liang understood the old man’s concerns: in such a remote and unmonitored environment, it was indeed possible to expose certain weaknesses in human nature.
Linghu Li glanced at the so-called Nirvana Forest, smiled slightly, then turned to look at Gao Xie, who had been silent the whole way, giving him a signal with his eyes.
The last contestant to arrive was not lucky enough to get a bye; instead, their fate was perhaps even more unfortunate, becoming the target of a challenge from a trainer who had failed but intended to compete again, or a new trainer who spent this round’s contribution points to enter.
Thus, You Zi Shi led her team to find them, and the group gathered together. By then, it was already late—past ten o’clock—so everyone started heading back.
Ling Zhoutian ignored her, returning to his room and sending out the liquid robot. Ling Zhoutian wanted to complain: the robot was still watching cartoons in the hotel, endlessly entertained. What on earth was this thing?
Was he truly the one to change fate? Hearing Kelou say this again, Bai Yuling still couldn’t believe it, but now felt a touch more confident in himself.
“Because I’m a senior, next semester’s courses aren’t many. Besides, my professor is very kind—he’s already agreed to give me special permission, so I can hand in assignments directly in his office.” Apart from that, she wouldn’t need to attend classes, just as in this semester.
People called him a fool, but Ling Zhoutian was not. What he obtained were always the most important and the most deadly things.
This question immediately sparked cheers from countless local news media in the audience. They were all waiting for this singer from China to make a fool of himself.
“Him? He promised me, no matter what I become—even if I grow as fat as a pig—he won’t leave me, right?” Su Yin was mischievous, tossing the ball to You Zi Shi.
Having enjoyed every signature dish at the restaurant, he departed slowly, leaving behind a crowd of incredulous gazes.
This extra tier of qualities greatly relieved Ling’er’s strain in control, reducing it by more than half.
Lin Zhao could no longer restrain herself, hugging herself tightly and collapsing to the ground in tears.
