Chapter Five: A Touch of Confidence
“Do you need us to rescue you?” Li Zheng asked as he docked the boat nearby.
The photo on the screen showed a man holding Xu Wei, and not far from them was a hotel beside the school.
Zhang Zheng’s brow furrowed. He naturally knew Sun Bai, so giving a phone number was unnecessary—after all, it was still saved in his phone.
With a few enemies gone, only two formidable opponents remained: one was the Class-A hero Sweetheart Mask, a powerful hero capable of defeating ghost-level monsters; the other was the hero Sting, wielding a long staff and known for having single-handedly slain a tiger-level monster.
Starting from the third-grade spirit pill in the 654 series, even some auxiliary medicines typically required at least five hundred years or more.
Moreover, she didn’t trust Chen Fan at all, always feeling that his reason for attending the wedding was not genuine.
Yan Xialan immediately pushed away the wild wolf and quickly sat up. As she lifted her head, her eyes met a cold and stern face.
In the hall, only the folding screen was considered a magical artifact. With the barrier dissipated except for a minor dissatisfaction at the fifth heaven, its function was merely decorative—it could change scenery and contain ghostly spirits.
At the gate of the Summer Palace, Felipe II’s brother Don Juan, despite his lengthy title, appeared far inferior before Alvaro. The Marquis of Santa Cruz was the foremost figure in building the Spanish army, serving as its commander-in-chief and grand general—roughly equivalent to Qi Jiguang of the Ming dynasty.
The causes and effects, the reactions from all sides, were tangled and complex. Only then did he rub his brow and sigh deeply.
The Colonel Yamaki of the Blood Hand Group we mentioned earlier was merely a subordinate commander at the Fujiwara port.

He hoped that one day, when Zhao Tiezhu came to visit Xu Long’s parents at the hospital, he would remember him and that they could have something to talk about.
Among them, some Supreme Elders were only responsible for defense and would not choose to attack. Removing this group, those capable of taking offensive action would be reduced by at least half.
Unexpectedly, the Chen family was so wealthy. The towering twenty-four-story skyscraper before Zhang Yang was reportedly one of the Chen family’s assets, and they owned many such buildings—countless in value.
The sound of horse hooves came from the Wei River Valley, aptly named for the Wei River flowing through it.
“Village chief, when will you fix the road? So the county head can come and see your glorious achievements!” Zhao Tiezhu teased with a half-smile.
Director Li also noticed that Xu Long’s family was much better off economically, at least compared to other patients, which is why he suggested such a method.
Gu Anxing gently opened the door, hoping to catch a glimpse of Sister Su Yuche’s true self, but she remained extremely cautious.
Today, Su Jinxi and Yun Jin entered the Third Realm of the Domain with unfortunate timing, coinciding with an internal upheaval. Nearly all forces within the Third Realm had gathered together.
Seeing Li Zhishi pulled back to reality, his eyes flickered in surprise. Zhan Zhu glanced at his wife, sensing her smiling hand gripping his under the table in reassurance, which put him more at ease.
Wu Song was even happier. His mission in the Northern Song was to reestablish a leader for Liangshan. Whoever it was, he needed sufficient power. Recruiting Zhou Tong and securing Peach Blossom Mountain as a stronghold was crucial.
“This thing definitely isn’t worth that price. I want a refund or at least half off!” Seizing the moment, some customers who had bought the item immediately shouted out. Led by a few, a refund frenzy quickly swept through.

“Nothing’s wrong. It’s just that the person opposite doesn’t seem to be the evil cultivator I thought. Perhaps I should meet him in person,” Nie Wei originally planned to confront the opponent directly, assuming he was an evil cultivator.
I felt uncomfortable from the kiss, my body stirred slightly, and a faint pain spread across my shoulder, causing me to furrow my brow. Xia Haoyu noticed my reaction and slowly withdrew his tongue. I opened my eyes gently and saw his face slowly smiling.
“Yuze, in my opinion, aside from you, there are few who can achieve great things by his side. You’d rather be dismissed from office than return to the capital as an official—there must be a reason for this,” said a strange voice, filled with a weary melancholy from worldly experience yet tinged with an indifferent aloofness.
But the bat kept chirping as if speaking to Su Yi until the very end, when Su Yi finally understood its meaning.
“Old man, how about this? Why don’t you just hand over the Ye family to me? It’ll save us both from an ugly showdown,” Liu Tianxiong said with a smile in the sky, his demeanor sincere.
“Gene…” Christina turned to look at Jia Zhengjin, her eyes full of pleading.
Lin Yu watched the people below from the sky but saw one after another figure rising—they were the elders.
Because she was his senior sister, and he was her junior brother. He had promised their master to protect this senior sister forever.
“I myself came out to invite you two to the mansion for lunch, but considering the current situation, it seems unnecessary,” Jun Yichen said as he looked at the two stiff figures outside the gate, the corner of his mouth curling into an increasingly mischievous smile.
