Chapter 135: Broadening Horizons

Zhan Haocheng took a checkbook from the handbag resting on his knees, scribbled a few strokes, wrote out a check for two million, and handed it to Chickie, who was in charge of collecting the money.

Brother Hui had already nodded. Chickie took ten bundles from the pocket of the henchman carrying the cash and placed them in front of Zhan Haocheng, ingratiatingly saying, “Boss Zhan, win a little more.”

Watching the smooth and adaptable Chickie, Jiang Fan muttered to himself in complaint, “I hope he loses everything down to his underpants, and you’re telling him to win more.”

Although he had been talking to himself, he had spoken aloud. Seeing that Jiang Fan made no attempt to hide his grumbling, Brother Hui gently patted him on the shoulder and leaned close to his ear. “Feeling upset...”

“All right, class is about to start. You two go back. If anything comes up, we’ll talk about it at noon!” Fanny leaned back against her chair and waved them away.

He silently went over the mental cultivation method once more. Finding nothing he failed to understand, he finally began circulating it.

With Empty Leaf’s assistance, it felt as though a thin stream had flowed into Jin Zhongliang’s spiritual consciousness, nourishing his exhausted and depleted sea of awareness. When he turned his head and saw how pale Empty Leaf’s face was, his eyes filled with pity. At that moment, however, he had no time to comfort her.

Cao Rutong understood that if he continued clinging to the vengeance for his son’s death, there was no way he would leave alive today. Not only would he fail to avenge his son, he would lose his own life as well.

By now, even though the end-of-the-world calamity was still very far away, Xu Jianxing wasted almost no time. He knew all too well how great a responsibility rested on his shoulders, and how closely the future development of the Profound Harmony Holy Domain was tied to him.

P.S. I pushed myself through some writing earlier until my head became so dizzy that I couldn’t continue. After lying down for a while, I felt much better, so I finished the chapter. I asked for leave first because I didn’t want everyone to keep refreshing and waiting. Still, this should probably be the only update today. Good night.

The fallen leaves in the Divine Wood Forest had always been the best natural “fertilizer” in the Exile Realm. Many precious medicinal herbs, fruits, vegetables, and various crops were cultivated using those leaves as fertilizer, and they fetched rather high prices.

Even Uncle Pig Drum, whose mind was not especially nimble, had seen through what was going on. He watched the spectacle together with Yang Xuance.

Peach Blossom will not give up. A new chapter will be posted after some time. If everyone is still willing to support Peach Blossom, I will be deeply grateful.

Gu Le shook his head. After briefly losing himself, he silently recited a calming mantra inherited from the Daoist tradition. Only then did his pounding heart gradually settle.

He had played far too wildly over the past two days and had nearly forgotten that he still had to settle the score with that man. Sigh, letting him enjoy so many extra days could be considered a bargain for him...

Xiao Yuyin felt somewhat frightened when she heard the first sentence. She hated trouble, and a treasure was trouble in itself; whether genuine or not, it would attract people fighting over it. Upon hearing the latter remark, however, she no longer knew what she felt. Was it merely chasing shadows?

“I happened to be passing by and sensed an aura from the mountaintop. What are the three of you doing here?” Li Yunmu asked, feigning confusion.

Bai Lang, president of the Sun-Moon Merchant Association, wore a deeply thoughtful expression, as though he had become lost in some problem. Yet he could not quite figure it out. His brows drew together slightly, adding even more charm to his already handsome and extraordinary face.

In the changing room, while his teammates were discussing the massage, he said nothing. He simply recalled his own experience, inwardly shaken. He was absolutely certain that Shen Yang’s massage had been the most effective.

Ruan Feng was the first to regain consciousness. Seeing the scene before him, his face twisted ferociously. He shoved away the elder who was supporting him with both hands and roared.

Tang Nan did not know why he had suddenly handed over a straw. He knew nothing at all—only that everything had happened instinctively.

Under the full-force attack of an Ancient God, Li Yunmu could not withstand it without using evil energy. He could not use his dark transformation either. Quite apart from the fact that it increased his strength only tenfold, it would also cost him his sanity.

“My life in this world is finished. Completely finished!” Ye Qing surveyed his surroundings. Before him stood the heavenly bridge leading to Earth Number Fifty-Five.
