Chapter 74: The Grand Peace Hotel Holds Firm

Heyue City.

The heavy rain continued to fall.

It had been three days already—howling winds, flashing lightning, and torrential downpours intensified the apocalyptic atmosphere, making it feel all the more real.

Cao Bin, lying absentmindedly on the sofa, was suddenly jolted by a violent noise in the distance.

In that moment, he could feel the tremors in the ground.

The lights swayed, the table trembled...

This turn of events was truly unexpected. Although the strength of two of them alone might not sway the outcome, if the three joined forces, they would certainly cause him considerable trouble and waste precious time.

If those six individuals still failed to react, they could only be considered hopeless fools. Instantly, everyone’s faces lit up with joy and they nodded eagerly.

Ma Jin was not a man of many words, but fortunately, Qin Yang’s questions were thorough and patient. As a result, their understanding of Xiao Xiangdong and Zhao Feifei had subtly deepened. At the very least, they were no longer just two names on a list.

“The location is good, the space is large, and it’s inside a shopping center. If the price is reasonable, I wouldn’t mind giving it a try,” Yun Tianlan said sincerely.

“My lord, are you getting up?” Sensing Cai Xu’s movement, Iron Bull came to his side and whispered.

Each petal was as precious as a supreme elixir, and could only be consumed on the spot. This was one of the reasons so many had come to witness the celebration. A world purified by hearts, golden lotuses springing from the earth—such a scene rivaled the legends of myth, a once-in-a-lifetime spectacle.

A set of clothing with defense over three hundred— even Wu Jie, a novice in gaming, understood how rare such equipment was at this stage. With his current defensive capabilities and skill, obtaining this beginner’s outfit had already laid the foundation for him to become a top player.

Old Yu’s home was filled with joy; bright red Spring Festival couplets announced the family’s prosperity.

“Master, there is still no intelligence of any foreign forces mobilizing at the border,” Cai He promptly replied under Cai Xu’s gaze.

“Tie them up!” Looking at the weapon on the ground, Xia Yongquan fumed. To dare attack someone with a weapon even in front of the police—these punks were simply lawless.

Hearing Eunuch Wang summon her, Ye Jinyu pushed open the door and entered, but still did not see the emperor.

He realized he had been too lenient with the staff at Dream Factory—first Ren Liang and others had jumped ship, and now Li Qiang had outright betrayed the company. Who knew what might happen next?

Just as Huangfu Mingyu settled onto the sofa with his coffee, Du Aobai suddenly appeared behind him.

Not every battle was a thrilling contest; among nearly a thousand contestants, the gap in strength was immense.

He understood all too well what this meant—in five to ten years, these two would be sixth-rank warriors, pillars of the Nine Provinces.

“Yes, yes, it was my mistake. Everyone, please disperse!” Ge Hong’s face was plastered with a smile, and sweat glistened faintly on his forehead.

At this point, Liu Hekun deliberately paused. If Huang Jiayin believed him, she would certainly press for more details.

It remained to be seen how formidable this backup plan was, but judging by the current situation, there was some real skill involved. Otherwise, they would not have found the base simply by observing the celestial phenomena.

Fu Ming’s gaze grew colder; the more Sun Fengshi investigated An Lie, the more alarmed he became.

As soon as his words fell, the boy before him suddenly saw stars as someone grabbed his collar and, amid a flurry of panic, kicked him into the water with a splash that sent waves flying.

To enter the city, Li Mo would have to disguise herself, especially Su Yaoyao, who was the main target of those people. They had considered dressing her as a man, but with her manner and figure, no disguise would suffice.

Li Qirui was now involved with an old woman. His attempt to deceive Liu Lanyun had failed, and seeing how naïve she was, he grew to resent her. He decided to bring an old woman from the northeast and settle down.
