Chapter 108: Such a Xu Chengjun Appears Only Once in This Generation

Those words left the meeting room silent for several seconds. Then someone murmured in agreement, “There are many people who criticize Zhang Jie, saying that she ‘promotes unhealthy ideas.’ But when I read her work, all I felt was admiration for her courage. How can that not count as writing what she truly thinks?”

Others remained deeply troubled. “I think it can be written, but there have to be limits. For instance, if the heroine divorced that man in the end and then got together with him, perhaps the controversy would be less severe. As things stand, this kind of ‘love that can never be fulfilled,’ though pitiful, still—”

In the end, the whole affair was too disgraceful for them to bring into the open, and it still could not cause Li Changlin any trouble.

It was over. No one could stop me now. Furious, I picked up the hairpin beside me and drove it into my stomach.

But what did Cao Cao have? How had he built his fortune? And what had enabled so many people to kneel before him?

As long as they were not there to cause trouble, it would be fine. Ten or twenty thousand monthly votes would have little effect on “Don’t Cry, Don’t Make a Fuss, Don’t Show Off.”

“I thought you could only defend yourself. Since you’ve chosen to attack, and there’s so much fun to be had, then let’s have a proper fight.” As Fu Lei spoke, the ice she had melted instantly transformed into a water dragon. It roared at Ma Yingjie, baring its fangs and thrashing wildly.

The Heavenly Realm had interfered in the Mortal Realm. That already violated the laws of Heaven. If they could interfere at will, would the world not descend into complete chaos?

“What did Big Brother discover?” With A Ke’s intelligence, she naturally understood that Xiang Yu was not speaking without reason.

At Zhou Jian’s command, all the hooligans looked as though they had just received a pardon from the heavens. They turned and hurried behind him.

“If that is the case, then I ask you to accept my proposal. As long as you agree, I can take care of all your worries and guarantee that no one will dare say a word. You will also receive the extraordinary honor of being personally taught the Will by the Lord of the Domain!” the Black Dragon said, beside himself with excitement.

The middle-aged man was likewise stunned by Chu Yan’s power. After steadying himself, however, he turned to Chu Yan and offered his thanks.

It felt as though the other party were Zixia from A Chinese Odyssey, while he himself was the Supreme Treasure who had arrived riding upon a multicolored cloud.

Wu Xiaozu beckoned Qiu Litao, Uncle Li, Liu Weiqiang, and several others over. They gathered around the scavenging device, pointing at various parts and discussing them in hushed voices.

Luo Chuan told Ke Xue what he had discovered in the video, then set out from the police station with several officers to find the potential victim.

Yang Dechang and Hou Xiaoxian stared blankly at Wu Xiaozu, completely bewildered. At that moment, the two hapless partners felt as though their minds had become hopelessly tangled in a series of eighteen hairpin turns.

Zhao Qian’s Moon-Watching Token was essentially a knockoff. Relying on microwave communications, it could barely transmit commands, so intercepting images sent from the moon was out of the question.

Yet Su Yuan’s sudden arrival shattered the atmosphere. Having heard the explosive news, she could no longer suppress her feelings. At the same time, she was sincerely happy for Yang Yuhuan. Her sect forbade her from teaching its cultivation techniques to outsiders.

Though Annam’s Eastern Capital was also equipped with a large number of cannons, it was nowhere near the Ming army’s level. After so many years of refinement, the Ming cannons were now unquestionably world-class in both range and operation.

Old Madam Wei came from a prominent family. Even though she was only a collateral member of the Wei clan, she had never suffered hardship in her youth. Her demands concerning the details of daily life were beyond what Shen Gong, who had endured poverty for two generations, could satisfy or keep up with.

They looked somewhat like centipedes. Their bodies were divided into eight segments, with a pair of mechanical legs beneath each one. Numerous needle-like devices were mounted along their bodies, varying in thickness and length. No one knew what purpose they served.

Shen Dun and Shen Cong’s expressions grew increasingly grim. Shen Cong in particular made no effort to conceal the sinister satisfaction curling at the corners of his lips.

The instant this thought arose, a cold wind swept over him. In the next second, Yang Chun felt himself being hoisted onto someone’s shoulders.

The appearance of the Hand of Order made the world feel unfamiliar to him. If this world’s system of vigilance still followed its original pattern, that was rather unexpected.
