Chapter 53: Unbelievable

Half an hour later, Ye Chen and his family arrived by car at the entrance of the Golden Coast sales office.

At that moment, dozens of Iveco vans with hazard lights flashing were parked out front.

Despite the torrential rain still pouring from the sky, sales manager Yang Li was standing at the entrance with her staff, umbrellas in hand, personally welcoming Ye Chen.

Ye Chen hadn't expected Yang Li to put on such a grand reception for him.

...

The words "defeated opponent" were the last thing Ji Yun wanted to hear. When Hong Tian uttered them, Ji Yun nearly exploded with rage.

The brilliance of the treasured artifact shone down upon the earth, and the Emerald Celestial Measuring Ruler floated midair, surrounded by all the other treasures, standing supreme and proud, unmatched beneath the heavens.

Not only here, but even in the sinkhole outside, the endless demonic aura could not stop the pure white lotuses from drifting down, each one blooming and taking root from nothing.

Just imagine, with such a fearsome weapon, how could the great marshals not be envious? That was only natural.

Watching the strange figure in midair, with the shadow of the Evil Dragon Sovereign appearing behind him, Su Ni was utterly shocked. The blood of the Su clan coursed madly through his veins, with nothing left to conceal, erupting forth in full.

Those standing nearby, sensing the unfolding drama, all turned to watch, some letting out strange cries.

But if he gave up this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, who knew how long it would take for the World Tree to transform again?

“It really makes one want to stay away!” Yamabuki Ayi, Ye Sakura Mai, and Fujihakama Mei, the trio, began to gossip that every pretty transfer student seemed to have some unusual connection to Ye Chen. Overhearing this by accident, Ye Chen was left speechless.

But their reactions were a split second too slow, and the True Spirit Emperor’s soul technique struck Qi Bao in an instant.

Aside from the Second Legion stationed in the northern border proactively engaging the northern cavalry to prevent them from moving south, the other three major legions were all deployed on the edge of the three troubled counties, guarding against the chaos spreading further.

She could use the button on the Soul-Stealing Ring to convert electric current into bioelectricity; the electric stimulation of the acupoints could promote metabolism and accelerate cell regeneration.

This sight made Yuechu want to laugh. She tried to hold it in, but failed, and laughed aloud.

When Wen Shang recalled Yuechu’s actions with everyone earlier, he’d suspected she might have been pretending, but now, seeing her like this, his brow furrowed again.

Whether it was Xucai, Tuanzi, or Rainbow Candy—could he really turn against them, just because of old grievances?

But Li Dalong didn’t care; his sole goal now was the Eternal Pillar. Everything else meant nothing to him.

Especially since the court had shown no reaction, the two rebel kings grew even bolder, convinced that Qianyuan had been abandoned.

“What’s in it for me?” He cast a sideways glance at the usually arrogant leader who never thought highly of him. He had no intention of letting his efforts go unrewarded.

Such arrangements served two purposes: first, to have the Starry Sky Chamber of Commerce focus on its core business; second, to leave the royal household with some source of income. After all, they couldn’t really go begging to the Chamber for charity.

Bao Xin was stunned. After just a few months, Qin Ke had become shameless and learned to act spoiled?

The powerful true energy within his body spun rapidly, finally converging into a single golden bead.

In a flash of inspiration, Jiang Song suddenly remembered what her in-game mother had told her: a man named Shen Ting Si would come to save her. That classmate just now had called him Brother Shen.

Bo Yunchuan, feeling the fragmentary martial arts scripture in his mind, trembled with excitement.

If he hadn’t acted quickly before, Princess Fujimoto might already have fallen into the hands of the blond thug. The thought sent another chill down Lu Cheng’s spine.

“So, what do new disciples learn at your Qingfeng Sect?” Pei Hengyuan asked instinctively.
