Chapter 36: The Man-Eating Tiger Case (6)
"Please, Director, just accept my daughter's gesture!" Zhou Lin knew that Xiaoman was a kind-hearted and loving child.
"Thank you both, father and daughter, for the kindness you have shown to our aging zoo!" The director said, his eyes welling up with tears.
Some of these old, weak, sick, and disabled animals had performed in circuses in their youth only to be abandoned in their old age, while others were rescued from the wild after suffering injuries and came to the zoo to live out their days.
The zoo's ticket sales were pitifully low, and the zoo had no other...
He Xu of the peak—three years have passed, and I wonder what level his cultivation has reached now?
Arriving at the summit, Yang Cong and the others were met by a mysterious man draped in a black hooded robe.
"He’s fine, you don’t need to come over; he’ll be home tomorrow!" Ning Xin didn’t know why, but the thought of Wang Qian coming over suddenly made her feel nervous.
Is it... because of the wounds from the previous sniper attack, and the depletion of magic causing a weakening in her mental state?
"That is certainly possible, but the Four Seas Auction House has always had very high requirements. They only auction finished, effective medicinal pills," Zhao Huaiyuan said.
While everyone stood in horror, the strange beast seemed to be provoked. With a violent thrust of its legs, it shot forward like a cannonball, its fingers curled into claws. It grabbed the head of the warrior who had attacked it, and before the warrior could offer any resistance, he was dragged a hundred paces and slammed into a wall.
Along the way, Qin Ya had encountered countless mechanisms and traps, many of which contained the skeletal remains of warriors who had arrived before him.
Facing Lan Yue's piercing gaze, Meng Qianhe broke into a cold sweat, knowing that one wrong move could mean the destruction of his sect.
Red Flash struck the skull of the beast, sending a shower of sparks flying, but the sharp blade of the sword caused no damage to the surface of the skull.
Checking his wristwatch, the hands pointed to 11:40. Hungry, Gao Cheng decided to give up for now; he would eat lunch, rest for a while, and continue his search when the sun was less scorching.
"Do you still not understand? Right now, the only reason we can escape this calamity is because Wei Yang is taking the fall for us. If Wei Yang were to lose his life, who would take the fall? Wouldn't it have to be us?"
Yet, these words, falling upon Wei Yang's ears, stirred something within him, and a sense of warmth enveloped his heart.
"You humans are always like this, hesitating and worrying so much. Why bother? Let the soldiers come and I shall block them; let the water rise and you shall cover it," the old man said, still entirely unconcerned.
Jiang Mingquan looked at Xiao Yifei's cold face, and even a man as experienced as Jiang could not help but shiver.
Chu Tiandu felt a surge of warmth swelling in his chest, accompanied by a sense of heroic spirit and stirring, sweeping resolve.
"You!!" The White Bone Spirit was furious. Now, only she and the blood-soaked Sun Wukong remained in the arena, and she let out a hysterical scream.
At this moment, even if Xiao Yifei were to transfer Rong Fang, he would certainly not say a single extra word, for he was truly afraid that a single slip of the tongue would lead to an outcome he could not bear.
With such a decline in overall strength, how could they possibly fight the Sages? This was undoubtedly like throwing an egg against a rock! How could they fight? Was this a joke?
The white-haired rich kid first gave a sleazy grin, then his face was filled with arrogance and insolence. With a wave of his hand, he said dismissively.
Monkey San could tell when someone was being kind, so he bared his teeth at Li Dabaiming and climbed directly onto his shoulder as a form of punishment.
Having experienced the sudden changes, everyone could finally set their hearts at ease, and their world had finally returned to a state of calm.
"Are you Lawyer Zhang Zexi?" As we walked toward the airport taxi exit, three or five men in black walked toward us, their faces wearing expressions of nothing but respectful anticipation.
