Chapter 55: No One Speaks

“Didn’t you just say you wanted to rent two floors of office space here? Are you convinced the feng shui of this place is good?” Lin Qingqi approached Lu Fei and asked.

Lu Fei replied, “This place is full of luck and prosperity. The longer you stay, the greater your prospects for development. It seems your family has a chance to rise even higher—but that also means you’re bound to encroach on others’ interests.”

…

Lin Xiu glanced warily at Qinglong. This Qinglong was a sly old fox, and from his expression, it seemed he wanted Lin Xiu to do something.

But for someone with such an appetite, Wu Zijian neither gained weight nor showed signs of getting fat. Whether it was because the ingredients from the spirit realm were pure and pollution-free, or due to some unique constitution of his, he remained as he had always been.

The Colosseum stood in the center of Rome, just south of Venice Square, not far from where we were now. We wouldn’t be able to enter St. Peter’s Basilica, but the Colosseum was open for us to explore.

Yet his comfort was tinged with sadness: his younger brother now possessed the power to truly kill him, and he had begun to harbor thoughts of his own. Three years had passed, and his brother had truly grown up… He began to question whether his plans were still necessary.

As he spoke, one hand was placed behind his back while the other raised slightly. He released no spiritual power at all, for at this moment, he was playing the role of a demon spirit. To use his spiritual power now would surely give him away.

Sure enough, after hearing this, Director Xia trembled and nodded hurriedly in agreement. Obviously, Su Ming’s words left no room for argument; even if he had more courage, he wouldn’t dare stir up trouble again.

Remilia Megatron unleashed waves of energy attacks, raising a blood-red light as apocalyptic as the end of the world. Yet Artoria, driving her bumper car, weaved with ease through the barrage of beams and missiles, the finish line of the fifth track just ahead.

“Thank you, Admiral! But would you care for a fish?” Rodney raised the grilled fish, its lifeless eyes staring up at them.

“Behind me? Wouldn’t that mean I’m out of bounds? Was that a mistake?” Ibaka watched as the ball rolled between his legs, his first thought exactly that.

“I’m sorry, sir, but this is the most expensive car at the show,” the manager apologized.

“Perhaps only the undead can survive in this accursed place!” Nerys said furiously. Undead creatures were immune to psychic attacks and could move freely through the forest.

Caught off guard, Yaya was struck and sent flying into the forest, crashing through a row of enormous trees. The sound of timber falling echoed through the night sky.

Bai Lei nodded slightly, then without hesitation grabbed the unconscious Zhang Yunfeng and led the way along the safe route Ye Jianqiu had mentioned.

“Go back and tell Longde Stead that I do not agree to this levy,” Caesar’s voice was calm, but everyone could sense the extreme danger in his words.

After Bai Lei left, the man inside the room was a little dazed. The illness he’d spent half a year and countless bills treating for his son had been cured so simply?

The bio-ghost, seeing Sun Yan approach, let out a roar and brandished its arms, the twin claws glinting coldly in the faint light, waiting for Sun Yan to come closer.

“Heh, now then, which foot did you use to kick Yaya?” Xu Yang began to study the other man’s feet.

Su Lin stood with his back to Gongyi Qing, his tone that of a master issuing orders to a servant. Gongyi Qing’s heart twisted in pain, but her anger only flared stronger.

Ji Mo Xian turned and strode out of the bedchamber, feeling refreshed. He always remembered why he had done all this: to give her a peaceful and stable life.

Hearing this, Yun Tianyang couldn’t help but look over. With a rough count, there were at least four or five hundred of these fierce beasts—and every one of them was at the Five Elements stage. What a formidable force!
