In the living room, Tang Ning and Yuan Wei occupied opposite corners of the sofa. They watched the game with keen interest, occasionally turning to exchange a few words.

The dark energy and vital energy within him violently repelled one another, throbbing with tremendous force. With a sharp burst, a bloody gash split open across his chest.

She asked him a few more questions about Lu Hai, but Gao Zijian still told her that everything would be resolved soon.

“Hmph.” You Ji snorted coldly and glared fiercely at Old Ling. When she noticed the faintly desolate look on his face, a trace of melancholy flickered across her features, but she continued to look away with an expression of anger.

Feng An’an wore a smug smile as she stared blankly at the director’s office door. She wanted to see how long Gu Zifeng intended to hole himself up in there.

Tang Ning was going to the dressing room to tidy himself up. In front of Feng An’an, he always had to maintain his best appearance; only then could he avoid embarrassing himself before her. As he entered the dressing room, Tang Ning did not forget to turn on the exhaust fan and let out the smoke that had accumulated indoors over the past three days and nights.

All the tribal chiefs showed a trace of fear. Reluctantly, they retreated to their respective positions, their eyes fixed on Chen Ping like a vicious wolf that had discovered a plump lamb.

Amid the thunderous crashes, giant trees toppled one after another and ancient trunks shattered apart. Zhu Yuanlong, like a demonic beast, transformed into a series of afterimages and once again launched a murderous assault on Dongfang Long.

Xiahou Dun led the defeated Cao army northward in retreat. He tried desperately to bark orders and increase their pace, but no matter how loudly he cursed, the soldiers’ legs felt as though they had been filled with lead, making it difficult for them to take even a full stride.

I have a problem: whenever I start crying, I cannot say anything at all. All the grievances bottled up inside me get stuck at my lips and refuse to form a sentence. The more I thought about it, the harder I cried, and the harder I cried, the less I could speak.

The battle here was raging, but the fighting over there was even more intense. Cui Qiu and the Azure Wolf both relied on sheer strength, meeting force with force. Every collision between them produced an earth-shaking explosion.

Others might not know, but the people of the Blood Saber Sect were well aware of the origins of these two alchemy furnaces.

On the other side stood a figure clad in a white robe and wearing a black mask. An overwhelming aura of sinister energy radiated from his entire body, and his strength was astonishing. He had clearly reached the quasi-emperor realm and was considerably stronger than the three people facing him.

Yet black energy arrows as thick as spears continued to shoot toward it without end, pounding relentlessly against its body.

Xiang Yu thought to himself that the reason he had come here was because this place offered opponents against whom he could grow stronger through battle. Otherwise, he would have abandoned it long ago.

Shangguan Yu’er was extraordinary as well. She bit her lip, drawing blood, then used her uninjured, fair hand to activate her vital essence. A cloud of blood mist immediately erupted around her, concealing her figure.

“Don’t worry, Dao He. Wei Jie always keeps his word. Since I said I would preserve Hou Liangsheng’s life, I certainly will not let him die at Huan Xuan’s hands!” Liu Muzhi was well aware of Wei Jie’s concern and calmly responded at once.

“You go.” At that moment, Director Chen also believed that Li Changlin had definitely stolen the jade pendant from Xingwei Antiques. Otherwise, why had the hand he slipped into his trouser pocket remained there for so long?

However, without the other party’s personal permission, he truly did not have the courage to expand his Crimson Dragon Battle Corps openly.

He had thought that the woman betrothed to him was her, which frightened Ye Yi into taking Su Ming’s place and going to prison.

Amid the silence, Zou Xia opened the door to her apartment. The three of them immediately saw Shan Bo lying in the entryway, his head facing the door.

Yun Qingrou froze. Thinking of all the precious things she had lost for nothing that day, she was so furious she could have killed someone.

“I don’t know. But if I really did go to see him, then something must have happened—something that made us feel the Eight Serpent Branches were dangerous.” Lu Mingfei wrote.

Jiang Ping had always simply rushed forward and thrown her arms around people whenever she encountered them, holding on without moving. She had never faced a situation like this before.

Everyone fell silent for a while. Then they suddenly felt a wave of dizziness, and all of them transformed into streaks of light and exited the game.

The perfect arches of her feet curved slightly. Her delicate toes first curled, then unfurled like flower petals. Ahri set her shoes and socks aside, lifted her hem, jumped down from the stone, and stepped onto the tender green grass.

The ceremony was held in the enormous plaza of East Sea Academy. Each year, the senior and intermediate divisions gathered together in full only on this occasion.

However, unlike in the original timeline, even Planck, the cruel and ruthless Pirate King who lived by plunder, knew there were beings he dared not provoke.

There were also two ambush positions nearby, with two police detectives concealed at each one. They were fully armed and prepared as though facing a formidable enemy.

Over the next three days, Jiang Tiandao began his demonic training regimen. The intensity of it left every warrior groaning in misery.

“It was just a kiss. You kissed my lips until they were swollen that day, and again when you came out of Sister Li’s brother-in-law’s house that night.”

“Hmph. You make it sound as though being toyed with by them is some kind of honor.” Xu Qingyan was deeply indignant.

The twelve zodiac animals were relatively simple to cut; a single design generally took only two or three minutes. Even so, Zhang Hao repeatedly emphasized the need to strive for perfection. Taking a little longer was fine, but they could not ruin their own work through carelessness.

With the fire talisman at her fingertips withdrawn, Xu Qingyan swiftly struck out with her palm and immediately seized the saber at the woman’s waist. Then she twisted her wrist, directing the blade toward Liu Laohu. “You want to die? It won’t be that easy!” As she spoke, she slashed several times in rapid succession, severing the tendons in his hands and feet.

Jiang Tiandao had not yet had time to speak when he saw the car overtake the Maserati and then suddenly slow down. It veered sharply, positioning its body directly in front of the Maserati and blocking its path.

Min Seon-ye lay across him, her cheeks puffed out like a hamster’s. Every so often, she added a few thoughts of her own.

Jiang Yanyang watched her younger brother’s retreating figure, uneasiness stirring in her heart. Her body was already in such a state that she could no longer interfere in everything. But could Jiang Lei really handle things like this?

As Friday’s voice rang out, she did not hesitate. A gigantic projection screen appeared directly before all the Avengers.

Sun Xinmiao rarely communicated with them, so under circumstances like these, they had even less idea what had happened to her.

If an unexpected incident occurred and it was not handled properly, it would be an earthquake for Gaoyuan Capital.

Even his colleagues at the municipal bureau’s information center had been unable to trace that mysterious figure. They had stated frankly that the other party’s abilities might be far beyond his own.
