Chapter 123: Will You Just Let Me Finish?

Xu Huan took a deep breath before speaking, "Ruan Mianmian, it's me, Xu Huan."

Hearing the name of someone she detested, Ruan Mianmian frowned and pulled the phone away from her ear to check the caller ID. It was an unfamiliar number.

She had never given Xu Huan her number, nor had she ever saved her contact information. Even their interactions regarding Huacai were conducted via private messages on the platform. How had Xu Huan obtained her number? And furthermore, why was Xu Huan calling her?

"Hey there, officer, I just got these dolls in. Care for one?" Cheng Nuo stood with his hands hanging at his sides, offering a sheepish grin as he shoved a doll into the city inspector's hand.

Although some eggs and larvae are consumed by other hungry, ferocious insects, many horsehair worms successfully enter the bodies of locust hoppers through the water they drink, where they parasitize, weaken, consume, and eventually kill them.

As the name implies, a zero-sum game refers to a situation in a transaction where the total gains and losses of all parties involved add up to zero; that is, one party's gain is exactly equal to the other's loss. A typical futures market is generally a "zero-sum game." When futures prices rise, long position holders profit while short position holders suffer losses, and vice versa.

Previously, Mu Leng’s impression of Cheng Nuo had remained stuck on him being lecherous, boastful, showy, occasionally annoying, mischievous, and unlearned... well, that’s enough for now, otherwise, a thousand words wouldn't be enough to finish.

Cao Yifang walked closer and caught a faint scent of fried egg wafting through the air. He realized that the quality of this exhaust fan was, indeed, not very good.

Jin Shuonan’s anger remained unspent. He shouted, "Lord Li, that Zheng Chong has the look of a treacherous and cunning general, and he just spoke many insolent words!" Jin Shuonan then recounted Zheng Chong's final threats. Upon hearing this, Li Jong did not fly into a rage; instead, his face went blank, and he slumped to the ground.

This question was indeed difficult, forcing Cheng Nuo to take out a scratchpad and calculate for over ten seconds before proving it. It was clear that the problem Professor Liao had set was quite sophisticated.

Obviously, that was not the case. Although he was part of the Heavenly Army, Yang Jian had signed a pact to obey orders but not summons. When it came down to it, his old grudges with the Jade Emperor remained.

The sickly-looking youth watched as his opponent gathered strength, feeling helpless and unable to do anything but vent his frustration on his own incompetent Pokémon.

The second wave of the flying cavalry was forced to shift from luring the enemy to a full-scale assault. Without reinforcements or coordination, they charged headlong into the Flying Destroyers, which outnumbered them several times over, engaging the terrifying creatures in a desperate melee with their limited weapons, their own bodies, and their mounts.

Xu Yang had also risen to success, yet he had not lost his original self. Although he no longer cleaned the shop every day, he still helped out whenever he had the time.

"So, you are a disciple he cultivated in secret? But why would he do such a thing? Could there be a secret he doesn't want us to know?" Feng Yuxiu asked, his brows tightly knitted.

Who could have imagined that those Minotaurs would be able to resist the bombardment of the Golden Mulberry seeds?

"True Venerable Fishing Old Man, it’s not impossible for you to bring fifty True Immortals, but first, tell me how many early-stage Nascent Soul cultivators are among them."

This meeting was like the last one; they had to be wary not only of each other but also of the other warlords in Strouva who might discover their rendezvous.

As Chen Ling grabbed her right fist, Meng Tianxue immediately kicked out with her right foot, aiming directly at Chen Ling's crotch.

With a single step, Xiao Tie appeared before the massive toad. At that moment, the toad noticed him, its enormous pupils contracting sharply.

However, he had no other choice. With these two sets of cultivation techniques, Dragon Phoenix Mountain would at least have a foundation, allowing them to publicly declare the revival of the mountain. Thus, it was better to have the origin of these techniques clearly accounted for.
