Chapter 54: The Wang Family's Investment

Meanwhile, as Su Tian descended the stairs, the receptionist greeted him politely.

Just as he stepped outside, however, he bumped into someone acting suspiciously.

Standing before Su Tian was a woman wearing dark sunglasses and a professional-looking black dress.

She seemed somewhat familiar, yet he could not quite place who she was.

He had matters to attend to and had no wish to waste time on her.

Everywhere lay the warhorses and corpses of the Xiliang iron cavalry, creating a barrier that blocked the subsequent wave of charging horsemen. Amid Su Chengyun’s frenzied slaughter, blood splattered in all directions, dyeing the warhorses of the cavalry crimson and stained with gore.

"Do you believe I can cut you all down right now?" Puyang tapped his twin blades together, producing a sharp, ringing clang.

With a low, rumbling tremor shaking the earth, a cold, tyrannical, and overwhelmingly powerful aura surged once more into the heavens, enveloping the entire sky.

Qiao Ling'er shook her head. "No, you'll catch a cold." With that, she moved to take off the coat draped over her shoulders to return it to Zhang Fan.

"Going public? Or..." Hearing this news, Lin Yaxuan was quite delighted. In her view, taking the company public was undoubtedly a splendid outcome—virtually every enterprise and corporation in the country was eager to list and raise capital, let alone list on the American stock exchange.

The lightning sphere hurtled toward the male Nen Master, threatening to obliterate his remaining health points in an instant.

"Respected seniors, please take a rest. I shall go on behalf of everyone to see if there is any way we can help. I believe Puyang is willing to break this formation for us," Zhang Xiuxuan stepped forward to say.

Engaging in large-scale real estate development meant the government would inevitably sell off a vast amount of land, and plots within the urban center were already occupied by buildings or residents. Real estate developers were no philanthropists; their sole objective was profit. They would hardly develop remote suburban land where no one went. Their primary target would naturally be prime locations.

However, the Lich King was, after all, a ninth-tier resurrected undead deity, and naturally would not be slain so easily. With a furious roar, he suddenly erupted with a massive surge of dark divine power, shattering the surrounding ice layer into pieces. Then, erecting a black barrier once more, he fled in disarray back toward the castle.

Jiang Weiyu found the comments immensely entertaining, becoming so absorbed that she barely had time to listen to the song. It was truly a case of the comment section being more riveting than the music itself.

The black beetle was already injured. Struck fiercely by the Earthly Branch Second Knight and Ye Ming Baili, countless pitch-black spikes suddenly erupted across its hardened shell, enveloping its entire body and making it difficult for Ye Ming's team to press the attack.

Upon the subject of quest rewards, the master craftsman grew solemn. Every divine artifact was to him like his own child.

Ye铮 did not believe these monsters would simply allow him to stroll past unhindered, so he had no choice but to retreat. It seemed this path was unviable; he would have to try the other side... Yet it was not a complete waste. Every place Ye铮 walked, he memorized clearly in his mind, somewhat akin to exploring the map in a single-player video game.

"Hehe, Daddy, I don't want an IV drip. IVs are scary too. Really, I promise I'll be all right tomorrow." Whimpering, Jiang Weiyu walked over to Jiang Xia and began swaying his arm back and forth.

Watching the fireflies begin to gather, Yu Le spoke up, "Everyone, please lie down and look upward. It enhances the viewing experience." With that, he was the first to lie down.

Having heard Earl Jackson's words, the crowd fell into contemplation, and soon enough, their anger toward the people of Tang took precedence.

"Bring up the lights!" Jiang Weiyu called out to the lighting technician, directing the illumination onto Cheng Wei to give her the radiant beauty of blooming in the setting sun, while the lights were adjusted to a warm, amber hue.
