Chapter 32: A Compelling Persona

Jiang Ran spoke in a leisurely manner, "You have all likely heard of my boss's name, so there is no need for introductions. Although you have had no prior grievances, everyone is here to build their influence, and there is no guarantee that you won't cross paths one day.

"For instance, right now, you have both set your sights on the same woman, and the thing my boss hates most is others snatching things away from him. Blood-Stained... no, I should call you Yan Zikai. This situation you have created makes things very difficult for my boss."

The most important thing was that Chen Manor housed the Cao family's villa, and living within that villa was the person he secretly called "Mother."

Upon leaving the Urban Management Bureau, Li Jiayu felt a surge of excitement and couldn't wait to call He Yichun to report the good news.

"It's just grain transport; why is it worth you making the trip yourself?" Cao Cao shouted, leading the way on horseback.

"The old rules: leave a portion behind to guard the base, and the rest will come with me to scavenge for resources!" Luo Tianhuan planned to head straight to the ironworks this time, as it contained a massive amount of the resources he needed.

"Five years... if Fan Suyi couldn't research it in five years, it will be even harder for those of us taking over halfway through," someone said, their face filled with anxiety.

Having grown accustomed to those who fawn over the powerful and trample the weak, mocking others at every turn, Jiang Yunqing’s choice to help Chen Ying without hesitation—even staking her reputation as Empress to protect them—was truly rare.

Su Guchuan’s black horse galloped across the seasonal river outside the pine forest; the reconstruction troops led by Xu Rong had already arrived at the ruins of Chishan. Just then, a cold front blew in from the distant north, sweeping across the entire East Asian continent.

"Good morning, Director Li." Duan Weiqi had also risen. Seeing Li Jiayu, he clung to her, acting spoiled with great enthusiasm, as if he were completely oblivious to the matter of the durian shell.

She felt a sense of surprise. She knew he used to stay up until two or three in the morning and wake up at five or six without ever having dark circles; she had assumed he was naturally immune to them.

Seeing her resolute expression, Shen Xiaofeng knew that saying anything more would be futile. He nodded sheepishly, turned, and bolted out the door.

Of course, it would eventually take place in a large-scale arena, with the entire event broadcast live online, watched by at least hundreds of millions of adventurers simultaneously.

"The Elixir Pool, three days' time," the young man said, taking a deep breath and speaking with an air of reverence.

She had not seen it with her own eyes, yet it was as if she had. Only now did Chen Jing realize that his senior sister possessed keen insight, capable of perceiving the whole from a mere glimpse.

Ye Fei watched Bu Qianhuai's back with uneasy eyes, feeling a chill colder than if she had just encountered a ghost. Furthermore, in such a cave, a single path leading into darkness meant she could never outrun him; she had no choice but to entrust her life to Bu Qianhuai's integrity.

Sensing a disturbance, Qi Wen held his greatsword horizontally to his side, his righteous golden martial energy erupting with the peak power of the fourth-stage Martial Form Realm. Yet, the next moment, before he could even swallow his medicinal pill, his body was sent flying back a great distance.

"Don't joke around. You can't even move, so how could you possibly know what's inside... eh..." Li Ran scoffed, but then his expression shifted to one of sudden realization.

"Go down." Seeing that the pool was full, Li Shuang waved her hand, climbed to the top of the washing machine, and plunged directly into the blood pool.

"Now, the only thing Xin'er can rely on is Ling Feng's sword. If even that longsword cannot harm Chu Tianyu, then Xin'er is bound to lose," Bai Tuo said.

As they caught it, three spherical objects appeared in the sky, falling into the courtyard and exploding. The courtyard instantly became a sea of smoke, making it impossible to see anything in the vicinity.

"Very well, rest assured. I will definitely avenge your first master," Chu Tianyu sat down and solemnly promised.

Hanging up the phone, Caizi thought that with the booming development of the county economy and the rising standard of living, many county towns were gradually expanding their residential areas. Large-scale expansion of urban districts was underway, and many plots of land were being developed into residential communities. At this moment, the development of the county economy was indeed a business opportunity; he should return to conduct an inspection.
