The crowd rose, Qing Li and Qing Wan understanding Chen Xun's intention to bring all the trash islands under the garbage recycling plant's control.
As soon as the words fell, everyone respectfully left, not daring to disturb Chen Xun, who seemed unwilling to speak further.
The waves crashed one after another, the sound of the sea wind howling like thunder, creating a grand scene.
Chen Xun leaned back in his chair, his fingers brushing his cheek, eyes lost in thought, quietly listening to the sea, as if the stronger the storm, the more it calmed his heart.
At this moment, the sound of the waves, the scenery, the trash, everything within a few miles seemed to disappear.
It was as if only the solitary figure watching the sea remained, his aura growing colder and deeper.
In the distant sky, Qing Li and Qing Wan's bodies trembled, turning their heads in shock to look at the figure sitting by the shore.
The thousand clansmen also looked slightly uncomfortable, suddenly feeling as if a part of their hearts was empty, a shadow of death creeping over them...
"Qing... Qing Li."
"Let's go..."
Qing Li swallowed hard, "It's not directed at us, no need to worry."
Qing Wan nodded absentmindedly, her expression dazed. For the first time in a hundred years, she felt the factory owner was so terrifying and unfamiliar.
They dared not linger, quickly disappearing from the scene.
...
Trash Island was still bustling, now starting to purchase discarded talismans, significantly increasing their spirit stone income.
But today, in the garbage recycling plant, Little Chi was unusually silent.
Gu Lisheng followed behind, cautiously sorting things, not daring to breathe loudly.
Song Heng didn't go treasure hunting today but stayed by Little Chi's side: "Brother Dog, this Gu Lisheng kid is not honest, for millions of years..."
"Alright, Fatty, stop stirring things up."
Little Chi stacked the waste of the Great Desolate Black God Crystal in one place, speaking coldly, "Brother Xun has prepared a large number of Qi-Enhancing Pills for breakthroughs, focus on doing something useful."
Song Heng's expression turned a bit horrified upon hearing Brother Xun's name.
He dared to joke with Rengar, but he wouldn't dare touch this one, not on the same level.
Gu Lisheng also remained silent, not daring to put on airs in front of this one, knowing he'd be beaten to death.
But they were both puzzled, feeling that Brother Dog seemed different today, cold and no longer lewd.
Song Heng's small eyes turned, and he smiled slyly, "Brother Dog, did someone offend you? I can prepare an immortal tomb for them."
"Unity, or perhaps above, Fatty, can you handle it?"
"What?!"
Song Heng's small eyes widened, his body trembling, "Brother Dog, I was just invaded by a heart demon, speaking nonsense. Ancestors above, may the cause and effect not fall on me, but on you!"
As he finished speaking, he hurriedly performed a ritual, muttering incantations, knowing that discussing a strong person above Unity was not to be taken lightly.
Gu Lisheng sneered coldly, throwing the waste on the ground with a thud, "Brother Dog, does a mere Unity need you to act? Wait until my millions of troops..."
But before he could finish, a powerful aura locked onto him, cutting his words short.
"Fatty, gang up on him, I can't take it anymore!!"
Little Chi growled, eager to vent, his body starting to swell, "Attack!!"
"Brother Dog, no problem, the desolate mountain tomb is ready!"
Song Heng held a stick of incense, letting out an excited shriek, "Lisheng, do you want to explore the immortal tomb, your own!"
"What?!!"
Gu Lisheng's eyes bulged, filled with disbelief as a giant paw came crashing down, making him scream, "Ah!!!"
A terrifying scream echoed from the garbage recycling plant, causing the brows of the people from the Online Store to twitch.
Even Mo Fuyang turned away, nodding in approval: Well done, Gu Lisheng never spoke a word of truth, even trying to deceive him once.
An hour later.
Little Chi let out a long breath, feeling less stifled than ever.
Finally, he understood why Brother Xun and Brother Bull enjoyed beating him so much; it was truly satisfying.
Song Heng stood aside, laughing wildly, feeling triumphant for avenging last night's suppression.
Gu Lisheng lay helplessly on the ground, occasionally twitching, his blood vessels blocked from the beating, risking deviation.
Song Heng hummed a tune as he walked past, accidentally letting out a fart, filling the air with a stench.
Gu Lisheng rolled his eyes from the smell, fainting, the stench like the last straw breaking the camel's back.
Little Chi felt completely refreshed, his thoughts drifting to Sister Crane, who hadn't said a word upon her return, nor returned to the thatched hut, but went to the flower field.
His eyes showed a hint of worry; last night, she was in the worst condition.
