Book One, Chapter 107: The game has only just begun!

The Lu Family Old Manor.

Today was a rare day of good fortune. Yuexu Group had spent a month grinding down a major deal, and was beginning to make its presence felt in the business world, drawing cries of amazement from all sides.

As a result, the Lu family’s shares had risen several points. Lu Qingyuan was pleased and had specially told him to come home for dinner.

The light refracted by the crystal chandelier overhead prickled faintly at Lu Baiqian’s eyes.

He had already waited half an hour at the empty dining table.

Meng Jin stood straight behind him, posture rigid, though a trace of displeasure still lurked in his expression.

The Third Young Master had been here this long, and the servants had not even bothered to bring a glass of water. What naked arrogance under borrowed authority.

“Here?”

Lu Qingyuan slowly came down from the study on the second floor.

In the vast sky, divine arrows and rolling stones kept crashing down. The powerful cultivators charging and blocking in front kept unleashing divine arts and magic treasures to intercept the tyrannical attacks from above.

Gu Lang was just about to see how Yang You would talk his way out of it when he saw Yang You lift the medal and bring it to his lips.

After hearing that, Bai Feng fell silent for a moment, then turned and left the scene, a faint look of melancholy appearing on his face.

Next came several rather strange sets of clothing, somewhat like spacesuits, though not entirely so. In his mind, spacesuits should have been highly precise and complicated things, yet the ones before him, apart from their somewhat peculiar shape, were as ordinary as ordinary could be.

Seen from above, the whole of Yinzhou City was covered by camps stretching for more than ten miles in every direction. The hawk-banner of the Yan Kingdom fluttered in the wind, grand and imposing.

Then came several more clashes of steel. All ten soldiers collapsed unconscious to the ground, and though the five great shields still hung from their arms, they toppled with them and fell in a heap.

“Oh!” Stone Shock Heaven nodded thoughtfully, now about seventy or eighty percent certain. Still, the wife of his big brother seemed to have quite a bit of standing. She was just a little cold and a little proud, but that was fine; just enough to keep him in line.

No wonder Shadow Kill had stood firm in this otherworldly realm until now. So becoming one of its members required such brutal training.

Gu Qing’s head was wrapped in thick white gauze, layer upon layer, with blood seeping out in several places.

Green Willow Pavilion was named for the willows. Naturally, the area around it was lined with lush green trees, their heights uneven, while the willow branches swayed softly in the evening breeze, delicate and full of poetic charm.

I said nothing, and Shangguan Xin said nothing either. As for Shangguan Yu, she was looking at her fingernails and saying nothing as well.

After Su Yang and Liu Shiya met their parents, they became engaged and set the wedding date for one week later. The wedding would be held on the Boeing 747 where the two of them had first met.

Bella had once told Lei Zhan that the entrance to H.R. headquarters appeared at random. If the entrance did not open, then even flattening the entire island with an atomic bomb would be useless.

Jiang Yao turned her head to look at Su Yunqing. Given the relationship between the two of them, it should usually have been Su Yunqing who yielded first.

“Who said it had nothing to do with you? Did I say that?” I raised an eyebrow, my eyes fixed on the young man who had spoken.

And the mission triggered by the shattered jade naturally fell to her, to the acting city lord of Blackwater City.

Clearly, beneath this was a spirit vein rich in primordial energy. Yue Ying had already found it strange; although the Immortal Realm also had barren and desolate places, a hill like this, nearly devoid of all vegetation, was almost unimaginable.

After a while, Wang Tian came over carrying a hoe. Seeing me, his face lit up with joy, and he hurriedly asked how I was doing.

After instructing my father to take good care of my mother, I brought the Zuo siblings into the bedroom.

“Ha ha! Young Master Lu speaks with reason. We are indeed old and foolish. Great kindness needs no thanks; we only hope that one day we may repay it in some small measure.” Feng Taiyue said sincerely.

These were three extremely ancient clan treasures, each with miraculous effects: one could render a person invisible, one could cross the void to any place in the blink of an eye, and one could weaken an opponent’s power while defending against it.

Her eyes, almost spitting fire, moved from Ling Xue to Ling Feng at the edge of the stage, then suddenly stopped, as if she had understood something.

This battle formation had a name: the Five-Direction Black Fiend Array. The combat power of the central formation was the strongest; it specialized in attack and sudden assault. The four surrounding formations echoed one another from afar, waiting for the right moment to encircle and kill.

Xu Wuyan’s opponent turned out to be a middle-aged woman past forty, with slightly broad shoulders and a formidable aura. In her cold, iron-blooded bearing there was still no lack of seductive charm, and her entire body was filled with a fierce and domineering killing intent.

“Clan Head, the South Emperor family is going too far!” an elder with black hair said angrily, his beard and hair trembling with rage.

In January of the new year, Keith’s resignation letter was approved as well. In three more months, he would officially return home to hand over his work and become a free man.

At this, Jonas burst out laughing. Watching Stephen in the middle of the court embracing the Lithuanian players, his heart was filled with mixed feelings. Having such a player was indeed a blessing, yet it also made people underestimate his coaching ability. He truly did not know what to do.

The harsh, grating cry of a crow suddenly rang through the mountains and forest, followed by the sound of wings flapping.

Clearly, if Yun Hanyu dared to make a reckless move, those arrows could turn him into a hedgehog. He had already failed to win over Qiyue, and now he was being suppressed by Feng Wu. He could neither swallow his anger nor spit it out, and yet he did not dare charge ahead, so he could only put away his bow and arrows.

The emperor, empress, and the others knew why Zhang Chengjue was so anxious to leave, but watching him hurry off while dragging Zhang Guanjing with him, the younger ones were all baffled. Why did it feel as if something were chasing Lord Zhang from behind?

Everything was ready. Li Banfeng returned to his portable residence. After putting the things away and just about to set off, he suddenly discovered that the door to the outer room had been opened.

Though, because of A Yu, he had already made a dramatic “appearance” before the bosses of the other societies, even his wife Su Hua was looking at him strangely.
