Volume One, Chapter 52: The First One to Follow Me

As soon as I finished speaking, Su Qing froze in a daze for a moment.

Until she snapped back to her senses: "Damn it! This lady came to Dongguan when she was eighteen, and after staying here for ten fucking years, I've finally met a real man with balls!"

With that, she abruptly lifted her short skirt, pulled out her lace panties, and with a swift movement of her hand, used them to tie her hair up into a ponytail behind her head.

"What are you doing?" I was somewhat bewildered.

"Watch the road, watch the road!" she urged, signaling me to focus on driving.

"Crap..." Ten seconds later, I couldn't help cursing aloud. "Wait... I have a girlfriend!"

"Damn it! Didn't you ask me to be with you? Besides, it's not like I don't have a man."

"You have a man?" I started...

I clenched my teeth tightly, glaring fiercely at Brother Bo. Although I knew he had my best interests at heart, I still couldn't help myself.

I pushed open the car door, and an instant wave of blazing heat washed over me. The sunlight was indeed a bit unbearable, but the weather felt different now compared to just moments before. As my body temperature rose upon stepping outside, I didn't feel uncomfortable at all.

Ye Xuanxuan agreed with her younger siblings and Madam Lu to escort her father to the village entrance. Madam Lu agreed without a second thought, seeming to have changed a great deal.

"Sanming, I'll handle this matter for you. I refuse to believe the boss around here won't give me some face," Brother Yu said angrily, clearly losing his composure as well.

The four tails behind me immediately lashed out, blocking many of the androids' slashing attacks for me. However, new cuts from blades kept opening up on my tails, sending sharp waves of agonizing pain through my body. Although they healed almost instantly the very next moment, the pain still slowed my movements down a bit.

Passing by a pharmacy, I couldn't help thinking of Sister Hua, who had been slapped across the face. Perhaps driven by a surge of sympathy, or perhaps thinking of winning over her heart, I went into the pharmacy on an impulse to buy some medicine before returning to the Paradise on Earth club.

Mu Bolun had prepared quite a few things for them; the clothing and daily necessities were all complete, but Su Baitong had just arrived in this world and didn't know how to use many of these items.

"What do you mean? Who are you?" The blazing fury erupting from those eyes seemed as though it wanted to burn Xiao Yuheng to ashes.

To their astonishment, they saw Ye Xuanxuan suddenly conjure a silver carriage out of thin air—the exact same carriage that had belonged to the Glazed Noble Son back then.

We walked deep into the village and spotted a Thai-style temple, with two villagers dressed in local attire sweeping the courtyard at the entrance.

Yu Wei had originally intended not to show her face, but if this matter really blew up, how would she manage to survive in the entertainment industry in the future?

Those in the know flooded the comments to analyze how many courses Shi Ye had completed in his "expectant fathers' class," and some instructors even enthusiastically graded him, feeling that Shi Ye's performance so far made him an exemplary student of the course.

Young Master Yan had already spotted Yan Yuan, and was now closing in on him step by step. Yan Yuan's clothes were dissolving at a visible rate, and his skin began to scorch.

Sure enough, a creaking sound immediately came from above the cell. Clearly, Ryoko Hamada had summoned her subordinates to reopen the prison cell.

Sigh! This is truly enough! Oh, come on! These are all my own problems! Sigh! I guess I really don't understand!

Char's assistant handed the contract to Ou Ting right on the spot. Although the other runners-up looked displeased, Ou Ting's commercial standing still spoke for itself.

The man in black made a resolute decision. To prevent his arm from being severed, he decisively sacrificed his limb, shifting his arm slightly to align with the trajectory of the soft sword, letting it slice away a chunk of flesh instead.

Just as Liu Tianhao finished arranging the aftermath for the three Yellow Turban chieftains and the group prepared to leave, Zhang Fei had already led his troop on a rampage through the entire Guanzong County. His armor was still dripping with fresh blood. Apparently, the intensity of Zhang Fei's combat far surpassed that of Liu Tianhao's side.

Bill carefully recalled the past. Not long after he left the Annihilation Fleet back then, the previous fleet commander had mysteriously disappeared, and afterward, the fleet was taken over by someone Basel had planted within the Annihilation Fleet. There were numerous suspicious points surrounding the matter, but no one dared to speak up.

At that moment, a graceful man in white quietly drifted down without a sound. Everyone present—whether members of the Four Great Bandits or the Pegasus Ranch—couldn't help exchanging bewildered glances.

Strolling along the way, I did manage to purchase some ordinary-aged medicinal herbs used for refining Postnatal-tier elixirs such as Jade Dew Pills, Snow Skin Ointment, and Healing Pills. Brewing some high-grade elixirs later on would compensate for the resources spent on purchasing weapons this time.

The Left Xianwang approached Princess Jielan once again to ask if she had any other unfulfilled wishes that he could help her accomplish. Princess Jielan instructed the Left Xianwang to avenge her parents, who had been murdered by the Han Dynasty, and then Tiefu Rong stepped forward to raise the blade for Princess Jielan.

"You didn't tell me, and you must have had your reasons. Don't overthink it, just focus on healing your injuries first," Su Qianxun said, taking his hand in hers.

Lin逸 turned to look, and sure enough, a red fiery glow was emanating from the entire body of the man in black robes, who was in the midst of executing an ultimate technique.

With three people hanging out together—and all of them men—the scene was simply too grandiose. Watching them alternate between offense and defense made Wang辰 feel a little nauseous.

Those who died violent deaths were bound to turn into vengeful spirits, harboring deep resentment and grievances. The fifty-plus vengeful spirits before them could be said to be radiating an overwhelming, monstrous aura of slaughter.

"This is a fork in the road. Which way did they go?" a gruff-voiced man in black robes asked.

Could it be that my deteriorating relationship with Long Sijiao had affected the company's business, prompting Qiao Bolian to come and demand accountability?

Yet Murong Detao had never given up on searching for his younger sister, Murong Lan. In the dead of night when no one else was around, he had sworn oaths before his parents' spirit tablets many times that he would definitely find her.

The reason he couldn't detonate himself was simply because the power within his body was being manipulated by Wang辰; his internal energy was completely under Wang辰's control, rendering him unable to self-destruct even if he wanted to.

Suzhou city, located near the disaster zone, entered a state of Level 1 military control. All citizens were forbidden from leaving their homes, and all food was uniformly distributed by the state until the disaster was brought under control or everyone was evacuated to a safe city. This was the reason why the streets were deserted.

Not far away, the figures of Gai Nie and Xinghun trembled simultaneously, casting a sideways glance at each other. However, everyone else's attention had been completely captured by Yun Mei's bold remarks, so they failed to notice anything unusual about Gai Nie and Xinghun.
