Chapter 60: Who Could Possibly Stop You

The sun hung high in the sky, its gentle radiance quietly spreading across the vast and secluded Hengwu Villa.

Zhou Jinghuai stood at the edge of the riding field, sunglasses perched on his nose. The sunlight cast onto the frames, refracting into scattered flashes. He watched the workers busy in the gardens and scrolled through his contacts to call Jiang Heng.

In the spacious office decorated in black, white, and gray, only Jiang Heng remained. Convincing profit-driven businessmen to sponsor the laboratory was a long, arduous battle—patience was essential, as Jiang Chi continued his research.

Now, I’m being challenged to face so many police officers; honestly, I feel a bit intimidated. It’s not just their numbers—take the thirty-odd SWAT members alone. With my current abilities, I truly can’t defeat them.

Ye Rufeng suddenly spoke, “Have you ever wondered? Why do stray dogs run away? Li Ruizhi has already unilaterally torn up your cooperation.” Upon hearing this, Chen Wanjin was instantly alarmed. “Stop!” he growled at the video. Moments ago, he’d been calm and leisurely, but now he was drenched in nervous sweat.

The sound of impact was not loud, yet the Azure Beetle Python had no resistance, sent flying dozens of yards, crashing to the ground; its eyes closed, fainting in unwillingness.

They believed that the creatures summoned by the Lord of the Night could not exceed the Spirit King level, but there was a strong likelihood they were mid to late stage Spirit Kings.

“I want all of these. How many points are you selling them for?” Lian Zi asked. These antiques, priceless before the apocalypse, were now worth little more than a meal. Besides, Lian Zi was not short of money—even if they were more expensive than other items, she could afford them.

Police are, after all, police—they have no understanding of the dangers on the battlefield. I suddenly scrambled up, pulled her to her feet, and dragged her into the castle.

Though Li Yu possessed cultivation, he felt the vigor surging within his body, his dantian and acupoints swelling with energy. This only proved how potent the medicinal force within the two pills truly was.

From that moment on, all the special forces knew my actions had earned the approval of the Northern Wolf. In other words, everything I did represented the higher authority of 7308.

Upon hearing Ye Rufeng’s words, Fang Mu leapt up in excitement. “Damn it, let’s go and get revenge on that bastard! But where do we find him?” Normally, the stray dog would have taken Ou Wushuang back to Chen Wanjin, which was a big deal—Chen Wanjin should be staying home today, not running around.

This was a kind of spirit butterfly, highly sensitive; as long as the pollen remained, it could be detected within ten thousand miles.

Committee Member Zhang knew full well that imperial memorials without an official seal were not to be read. If caught peeking at them, his career would be utterly ruined.

In that moment, Nie Wanluo finally understood—the loss of the fetus had nothing to do with Qiao Neng or Qin Zhixing; it was her own fault. She hadn’t been able to protect her child.

Barring any unexpected events, the third Heavenly Fragrant Cardamom was among them. With this, he would have completely fulfilled his promise to Gu Santong.

Jiang Lan’s anxiety mounted. She turned to look at Yan Hao in the courtyard, who was wearing his smart helmet, wires connected to the teleportation node. There was no sense of the outside world—damn it! When will this end?

The scope of wartime surgery was vast, and accordingly, Jiang Lan had much to learn. She needed to master, in one year, the six years’ worth of curriculum required for a general surgical intern—including major procedures like amputations and regenerative organ implantation.

“Feifei, don’t overthink it. With our current abilities, there’s no problem we can’t solve. Cheer up, okay?” Pan Yuhong comforted her.

As he spoke, Shi Yi grew calmer, the cold aura diminishing noticeably.

The Emperor of Decay slowly removed the black cloth from his face, revealing a mysterious visage beneath.
