Chapter 168: More Than One Person Behaving Strangely
Manager Zhan also wore a puzzled expression. "I... I'm not sure either... However, it's good that Madam Xia is back. If we can use this to figure out what happened to that jar of wine, perhaps... perhaps we can also clear Joyful Inn's name!"
He had originally thought that the jar of wine had been secretly opened by some gluttonous scoundrel in the shop. After all, when the jar was delivered yesterday, he had personally inspected it, and it was sealed tightly.
Therefore, just moments ago, when Xia Qianhe and her party accused their establishment of poor management—
"No, I mean, which region is this?" Chen Feng still held a sliver of expectation at this moment, hoping that he had landed in some unfamiliar territory.
"That's not right? How could this happen? Casilla is clearly still alive, but whose dead eye is this?" She was at her wit's end.
At that very moment, the sound of heavy footsteps came thudding down the stairs. It turned out that the subordinates brought by Lord Lei had realized that something was amiss and immediately rushed up, weapons in hand.
Her due date was originally next week, and coming a few days early was actually normal. Just now, however, her heart had been in complete turmoil, tangled in anxiety for fear that the child would be born at this very moment.
The Arrow of Retribution pierced into the ice wall, suddenly slowing the momentum of the flames. However, the magic coupled with it was clearly superior; although its power was diminished, it quickly broke through the ice wall.
Indeed, for ordinary innocent civilians, the fallout of war would strip them of their wonderful homes and leave them displaced. But this applied only to the people at the bottom tier. What about the high-ranking personnel of both sides in the war? Especially those on the victorious side, they were bound to reap massive war dividends.
Corpse Yinyang was dead, but beside him, Bone Sen's expression changed drastically. His strength was on par with Corpse Yinyang's; if Corpse Yinyang could be killed by Li Qingfeng, what about himself?
As it turned out, upon seeing Liang Fei's video, people had rushed over from all directions. They had arrived only a few minutes ago. Da Pan was already subdued, and Huzi had been taken away by the police. Liang Fei's heart finally settled; the children were saved.
"You are Xiang Yu, the Grand Marshal of the Holy Dragon Kingdom's Eastern Expeditionary Army?" Tie Lei Ba Bao looked Xiang Yu up and down.
It had to be said that although Li Qingfeng had friends, he had even more enemies. The people of the Luo family and the Flame and Yellow Temple had both been blocked, and this time he could only rely on himself.
The entire sequence of movements was executed in one smooth motion. When the youth had put away his blade, no one knew, but when he stopped again, he was still standing in his original spot. Beneath his feet remained the blade mark he had drawn just moments ago—the very boundary line he had spoken of.
Hearing a voice abruptly, Bai Heming felt a chill rise in his heart. The voice drifted near and far, entirely elusive.
Where the rainbow light shone, the thick fog retreated into the distance, replaced by a magnificent expanse of green mountains. Like a scroll unfurled, it lay across the end of the desert, captivating and mesmerizing.
With a heavy thud that felt somewhat earth-shattering, she was startled, as if something had fallen from the sky—it seemed a pitch-black mass had dropped right into the courtyard.
"Though you've drunk quite a bit, given the Marquis's usual capacity, you certainly wouldn't be like this." Zhu Bao shook his head slightly and said. In the past, the amount of alcohol Xiao Yi consumed today would at best have left him slightly tipsy.
Lou Shaobai stood at the back, casually peeling a piece of candy and tossing it into her mouth. Likewise, after Qin Yi glanced over, she tossed one to him as well.
"Such unfathomable methods are beyond even me. I only saw it once back then when the Heavenly Emperor was cultivating." A trace of surprise flashed across the face of the Ocean Monarch's Heavenly Manifestation, and an ominous premonition began to take root.
Luo Qingxin's eyes and mind spun in a daze, and she slumped over the steering wheel to recover. Qu Yating, who had been lurking outside the door all along, burst into joyful laughter upon seeing this.
"Many thanks, Marquis." Zhang Yang spoke without the slightest hesitation. Xiao Yi then gave a slight shake of his head, and the two exchanged knowing smiles as they looked at each other. Clearly, the number of prisoners of war the Prefect Zhang wanted to keep was probably less than eight hundred, but having dealt with the Marquis of Champion for years, he more or less understood his habits, so he couldn't ask for too few when making his request.
