Chapter 52: Yu Zhisheng, you are such a big kid, have you no shame at all?

[Teacher Zhong and Xiao Yun have been found too, though it is quite amusing. What they encountered was the village children's summer activity of catching cicadas, which gave Xiao Yun quite a fright.]
[Cicadas are very expensive; they cost three to four hundred per jin here. Many elderly people specifically catch and sell cicadas in the summer, earning thousands or tens of thousands of yuan in a single season.]
[Really or fake?]
[To the user above, just look it up online. Every summer, plenty of people make a living catching cicadas. It is very profitable.]

Seeing that Tianju clearly did not wish to dwell further on the previous topic, Bing Kuang, upon hearing him mention beloved daughter Bing Lan, couldn't help but wear a bitter smile, shaking his head as he said, "Her? She's probably still sulking in her room right now."

The reason why the shield was currently only of lower-grade tier one was not due to substandard materials, but rather because the weapons crafter who forged it lacked a bit of refinement in skill.

Qin Ming recognized this Shattering Flame Hammer; it was none other than a lower-grade spiritual artifact passed down through generations of the Qin family. Not only could it be used in combat, but it also possessed special efficacy in the forging of weapons.

The moment she met Xiao Mingyu's expression, she instantly understood what had happened. Undoubtedly, that person had escaped once again, and Xiao Mingyu had backed herself into a corner.

Under the might of that palm strike, Hong Jin's body was directly flattened by the immense force. His longsword and golden armor shattered into pieces, leaving only a gleaming jade-quality seal floating suspended in the air.

With food and lodging guaranteed here, this single tael of silver was pure income. Calculated this way, twelve taels of silver could be earned in twelve months. This was far more than what her entire family could scrape together after toiling bitterly in the fields for a whole year.

Suddenly, Huo Ling'er glanced slightly sideways, looking at the half-man-sized figure behind her, her eyes brimming with pampering affection.

This was precisely the sign of a gradual mutation. With this good beginning, Qin Ming became even more motivated. After wasting more than half of the titan-grade stellar fortress's thousand-plus degrees of energy, he finally successfully cultivated the third-generation red-veined grass.

Huo Yankai proceeded to introduce Master Yangming and the various heroes and gallants one by one, while the old man merely nodded in acknowledgment.

At this moment, the God of Light also appeared on the scene. He had witnessed everything that transpired above just now and felt that the matter was somewhat peculiar. Without hesitation, he exchanged a glance with the Twelve Zodiacs.

"Yes, Grandfather." Feng Ruhuang looked quite adorable seeing her grandfather's stunned expression.

The genetic maps of people from the apocalyptic era were fragmented, but Danton's genetic map was a manifestation of two perfect sets. Even a layman like Yegor could clearly discern the difference between them.

"If you forfeit this match, it will be a draw. So let's move on to the third round and settle the score once and for all!" said Mei Gege with a faint smile, though I caught a whiff of danger hidden within it.

When everyone turned to look at Pei Long, they saw that across his otherwise refined face, a deep knife scar stretched diagonally from his left temple down to the left corner of his mouth, with fresh blood steadily trickling down.

"Then, do you recognize this jade pendant?" Yun Shangren opened his right hand, presenting the jade pendant resting upon a silk handkerchief for her to see.

Wu Jiu almost couldn't help punching this fellow. The instigator of it all was actually asking him what had happened—dammit, how was he supposed to know what had happened?

With that, Cheng Yinnie had already placed his internal-energy-infused palm upon Taoyao Niangniang's shoulder. An aching sensation akin to shattering bones instantly coursed through every meridian of her body, causing her to cry out in pain.

"What is that supposed to mean? Could they possibly command ants to fight for them?" Long Ci flatly refused to believe that this Ant Tribe possessed such advanced technology.

When was it ever just Wu Yanxiong who wanted revenge? He had just lost three close kin of his own now, yet he was equally helpless.

This bolt of lightning was fully as thick as an arm, radiating an immensely magnificent aura that illuminated the entire heaven and earth.

The doctor came to examine her and told us that Grandma Chen is indeed unable to speak right now, and only her hands can still move. These are all aftereffects of the head injury, and under the current circumstances, we can only rely on conservative treatment, with no guarantee of whether she can even be cured.
