Chapter 148: An Old Friend

On the second floor of the guild, in the guild master's office.

Urgay retrieved a silver identification badge from the drawer behind him, and the receptionist recorded Videl's information, sealing it away in a cabinet specifically designated for quest completion reports and records.

A mage cast a spell upon the silver badge, and Urgay said, "This is Byron, a third-ring mage of our guild. Once he activates this badge, Your Excellency will be able to use it at any other adventurer's guild."

"Show it to the guild's receptionist..."

There were also dozens of elite natives from the Spirit Realm, killing on sight and pursuing relentlessly. Even upon escaping the core area, they would still face the slaughter of all savage beasts.

"I have five hundred million US dollars deposited in UBS, consider it a greeting gift for you, sir!" Qiu Li said with a flattering expression as he pulled out a bank card.

Demon Sea, this modern international metropolis with a population of tens of millions, was crowded within this extremely precious land where every inch was worth gold. It seemed peaceful on the surface, but beneath that tranquility, criminal activities were surging like undercurrents.

At this moment, He Bin was also feeling extremely displeased. He had not expected that negotiating with Ye Cheng would be so difficult; he was practically impervious to reason. One must know that he was here to spearhead the effort, and if he failed, Smith would have to resort to extraordinary measures.

Li Tianchen's gaze shifted slightly. He had long suspected the existence of something on the outer periphery of this universe, but he had never tried to find out.

Kimmimaru muttered to himself, watching Uzumaki Naruko before him, who had already entered a state of frantic madness.

This recent bout of sparring gave Xu Liang a deeper comprehension of the Eight Trigrams Palms and filled him with even greater awe at Ye Cheng's terrifying strength. He had thought he fully grasped what Ye Cheng taught him, only to discover during actual combat that he hadn't truly understood it at all.

After all, the top ten families in Jiangnan were still just the top ten; compared to the top five families, they were simply incomparable.

However, the figure at the very top was fighting desperately. With a distance of just over a hundred meters, his chances were extremely high. Once he reached the summit, the pressure would vanish. With his cultivation at the Great Circle of the Three-Step Nirvana Realm, he feared no one, not even Chen Fan, a point on which he was immensely confident.

Zhu Zhuqing clutched her heaving chest. The prolonged battle had drained not only her stamina but also her soul power to a dangerous degree. If she kept fighting like this, the situation would only grow worse.

Ning Fengzhi had arrived at the venue early, and Emperor Xue Ye had not missed a single match of Shrek Academy, deep in thought.

Along a north-south imperial highway, only a caravan consisting of a dozen or so people trudged forward, looking rather desolate.

Chen Shoujia had already returned from outside the courtyard gate with a dark expression, cursing loudly as he strode over, raising his heavy hand to strike Dong Shi across the face.

Qin Tian could not be bothered to argue further with him, as Princess Qi's body was already trembling; if he did not administer aid immediately, a genuine disaster would occur.

Having no other choice, Zhang Ganggang could only brace himself and stand up. Amidst the sympathetic gazes of everyone in the private room except for Zhao Yike, he walked out.

Wei Cheng pulled the quilt up over her, and looking at Qiao Wanqiu's serene sleeping face, a faint smile curved the corners of his mouth.

Compared to the other two, Qiao Wanqiu was eating with genuine relish. Living up to its reputation as a mid-range restaurant, the food indeed tasted wonderful, especially the beef, which was tender, juicy, and immensely flavorful.

Cammy's eyes widened abruptly, her battle aura erupting wildly throughout her body as she braced herself for the impending attack.

Rather than calling it an official highway, it was more akin to a dedicated passage within Yanmen County for troop deployments and military logistics transport, somewhat reminiscent of the imperial highways of Qin.

The highest-tiered entities in City C29 were only of the fourth rank, and these individuals had either sacrificed their lives or sustained heavy injuries while blocking the first fifth-rank primitive species moments ago.

"I'm furious! I'm furious!" Fu Xue's face was flushed red with anger as she pointed at Lianshan and Qin Shuhua, unable to speak a single word.

She pulled over Wei Jingzhe, who appeared heartless yet was actually frozen in a daze, and gently kissed those tranquil eyes that possessed the ability to deceive everyone else.

Just as Sister Lin was about to offer a few words of reprimand to Qin Zhao, her phone rang. Qin Zhao wanted to seize the opportunity to slip away, but a single glance from Lin Yi forced him to stay put.
