Volume One, Chapter 161: Daoist Master Xuanling

Xiao Junhe scratched his head awkwardly and smiled sheepishly.
“Oh, I was just recently promoted by the Vice Governor. Before that, I worked in other departments. It’s thanks to the Vice Governor’s special favor that I got the chance to work closely by his side.”

Watching everything unfold on the surveillance, Yun Mojiu’s lips twitched slightly, a hint of admiration flickering in her eyes.
Even if Xiao Junhe weren’t a member of the Xiao family, he certainly wouldn’t starve.

Ling followed the direction of Kate’s finger, but the view was obscured by wild grass. Still, she could vaguely make out a convoy of five or six vehicles approaching.

But, just like the earlier question of whether to release the demon or not, Yi Si’s final decision to unleash the demon was not because the Earthlings forced him, but a choice he made himself.

Because of Master San, the atmosphere at the dining table was somewhat awkward. Miss Chuchu blushed deeply and remained silent; she had only come to shelter from the rain but ended up joining the meal as well.

With another wave of “Evil-Breaking” and “Ghost Claw,” the alchemist’s Buddha statue on the floor shattered once more. Then, a faint moaning sound echoed as black light flickered beneath the lotus pedestal, and swarms of pests floated out, forming a huge phantom insect.

Nuan Nuan vomited several more times. After checking carefully and finding nothing left in her mouth, Liu Shi and Peng Jin finally relaxed completely.

These beams of light were the afterglow of stars exploding, and with so many stars destroyed in such a short time, the shockwaves spread like a vast celestial wind across the sky.

Surely, they wouldn’t have deliberately targeted a few unfortunate souls just to annoy the Immortal Reverser! Had they not considered the consequences of angering Mount Bu Zhou?

Aside from the game company, the first guess was that the person might be a domestic journalist, but that assumption was quickly dismissed.

By the way, doing this right in front of me—did you ever consider how I, a cop, would feel about it?

After watching Xiao Chan leave, Man Jing hurried into the restroom and bent over the sink, unable to hold back her vomiting.

It should be noted that among active professional players, many regarded him as an idol and a rival to surpass. It was already known that Su Baiyu and Lin Shiyu were close, but now it seemed their relationship was far from ordinary.

Not knowing what a relay station was was perfectly normal for those from the sea territories, where horses were unnecessary.

“So what? We’re all brothers anyway. It doesn’t matter, no worries. Let’s just pretend nothing happened,” Chu Fengqing said with an awkward smile.

Actually, when she was with Zuo Yifei, Xiao Ling rarely behaved like she did now; sometimes, she hardly recognized herself.

Saying that, Huo Ziling crouched down to remove the cotton cloth sealing the person’s mouth; I watched him for a moment and suddenly noticed the man’s Adam’s apple moving up and down, as if trying to swallow something.

Hearing the whispers around him, Shen Zhongyang smiled faintly and boldly draped his arm over Gu Ying’s shoulder, pulling her close in an intimate manner.

Generally, challenges between top players were made public, but some remained confidential—usually for a price. When released, the world exploded in uproar; that day, peace was nowhere to be found.

“Captain, have you seen the news online?” Yu Dongdong eagerly handed his phone to Shen Bai like presenting a treasure.

Chai Shao felt no embarrassment; he leisurely adjusted his sleeves, corrected his public demeanor, and continued his conversation with Prince Rongzhen.

She had some understanding of the government. Even if the Snake Fiends did nothing else, just their drug trafficking alone was enough for the authorities to have cracked down on them multiple times.

The princes and princesses gathered here to tend to the wounded, while imperial physicians bustled about. Cries, shouts, and curses melded into a chaotic symphony.

With both software and hardware in place, Sima Chang, bored during his convalescence, began tinkering with various gadgets to pass the time.

A strange word caused Ye Ling to frown involuntarily. In her memory, no such profession existed, yet the man before her did not seem the type to lie.
