Chapter 60
Even if Shaoqing were reincarnated into a royal family with a high status, he was ultimately unsuited to marry Lan Xi.
The cave was wreathed in mist, with countless fireflies resting on the stone walls, illuminating the entire cavern. The hazy water vapor, mingling with the fireflies' glow, created a brilliant and breathtaking display of shimmering colors.
After finishing his phone call and entering the room, Jiang Xiaofeng nodded at Duke Shi, the gesture implying that they could now begin.
Moreover, for a mission from Country R to appear within the superpower base of Huaxia was already unusual, or rather, bizarre. Yuan Shuo had originally intended to keep this mission indefinitely shelved, but he had never expected that Wan Qi would ultimately take it on.
"Yes! I think she is the person I have been searching for all along!" A smile touched the corners of Duke Shi's lips, a joy that stemmed from the depths of his heart.
"Investigate who sent these people. How dare they lay a hand on someone under my protection? I had no idea there were such arrogant fools left in the capital. It's high time they were taught a lesson in manners," he said with a gloomy tone, his gaze flashing with a bone-chilling, soul-captivating light.
Song Jing nodded. With the turmoil in the palace yesterday and various chaotic events piling up together, things were bound to be extremely busy.
As the chorus came to an end, Wan Qi also stopped her movements. The verses had not provided her with much inspiration; she actually preferred the chorus of the song, even though she had never heard it before.
After clearing the air between them, their moods felt much lighter. It was not until very late that Xiao Yingxiu reluctantly took her leave.
"An outcast from the federation cities! Hahaha..." Zhang Damin pointed at the middle-aged man, laughing uninhibitedly, his grayish-white beard twitching as if it might reach the sky.
In fact, for the members of the Qinghua Audience at this moment, it was no different from witnessing a true immortal descending to the mortal realm.
Just a moment ago, he had sworn to the heavens that he genuinely had not meant to perform such an unsightly face-plant. He had inexplicably mastered the divine skill of tripping on flat ground, completely unprepared and defenseless as he crashed face-first into the dirt, feeling utterly bewildered.
However, Shui Roubing was not someone who acted purely on impulse. Although Yuliuming's words were somewhat blunt, they laid out the current situation with crystal clarity. After a brief internal deliberation, she decided to drop the matter. Casting a deep, lingering gaze at Yuliuming, she whirled around and strode away without a shred of hesitation.
Fortunately, amidst the endless consolation from the ministers of Chen, the Crown Prince managed to suppress his grief. Before the bier of the late King of Chen, he officially ascended to the throne of Western Chen, becoming the second monarch of the newly born state.
In contrast, the population of the New England region, which started with a mere 20,000 residents, had exceeded 90,000 through natural reproduction alone.
"Where do you think you're going!" Xiang Shaorou let out a furious shout. The warhorse beneath the Overlord's avatar thundered forward, closing in on Ying Jifeng with blinding speed. Having hurled his spear earlier to save Long Xing, the Overlord's avatar was now forced to unleash a pair of iron fists, violently smashing them toward Ying Jifeng.
Bai Tianxing picked up the jade cup with an expressionless face. Their relationship was, truth be told, quite ordinary; for the other party to offer such fervent and zealous consolation was overstepping boundaries.
One had to admit that Zhou Ning's line of thinking was correct. If one wished to bring about reform, the most crucial support was military might; otherwise, everything else was just an empty joke.
Meanwhile, that sprinting fellow countryman also noticed Long Xing, and with a tacit understanding, the two of them ran toward each other.
"There are two methods to deal with the poison in Senior Jie's body. The first method cannot guarantee a complete cure; I will use medicine to force the toxins from your body into your soul bones. It won't enhance your soul power, but its advantage lies in safety."
Upon arriving home, as expected, seeing so many toys bought, Auntie Chi asked how much they had cost.
Today, throughout the entire illusory immortal realm, who did not know that the Greater Chiliocosm was utterly insignificant compared to the Heavenly Realm? When it came to these so-called Emperors, if the Heavenly Realm casually dispatched a divine general, they could slaughter the lot of them.
This world even featured JoJo, and now Tokisaki Kurami from Date A Live had appeared as well. It shouldn't be all that surprising that she knew of the existence of Stand Users, right?
The man roared with all his might, the veins on his neck bulging and twisting like malevolent dragons.
The flames around Haxorus's neck suddenly blazed brighter. Then, parting its jaws, it spewed a scorching pillar of flame straight at Lucario.
The police officers exchanged glances and, following their plan, moved in first to check whether the civilian involved in the incident was still alive. Under the assault of such a high-level sniper, surviving would, of course, be the best-case scenario.
Many disciples might not even be able to step a single step beyond this sect in their entire lifetimes, but now Li Buyu was allowed to leave after merely three months. This was a privilege no other disciple had ever enjoyed before.
"Present!" Hearing Wang Hai's voice, his body snapped rigidly into posture out of habit, heels clicking together, his expression turning exceptionally solemn.
To this completely oblivious peer, three synchronized voices rang out simultaneously, displaying a level of tacit understanding that left Renye immensely satisfied. This was the kind of coordination the Police Academy Six should have.
Before the fist even arrived, the gale of its momentum struck first. The fabric on Qin焱's back was shredded to pieces, and what was even more terrifying was that his physical body was rendered completely immobile—experiencing the exact same overwhelming powerlessness as when he first encountered the Saint Sovereign.
During this period, every single evening, she would linger atop the giant boulder before the mountain gate, eagerly anticipating Lin Yifan's return.
Zhang Zi'an threw on a robe and got out of bed, only to find that in the blink of an eye, Pi's expression had shifted from clear skies to overcast, staring blankly at the screen with his mouth half-open.
Until the police had driven far away and the three of them hit the road again in their RV, Shui Han still felt how awkward the whole ordeal was. After all that fuss, Alice practically looked like she had been abducted by me—did I just become a human trafficker?
Today continued the overcast yet crisp weather—the absolute best conditions for a hike. Zhang Zi'an and the other spirits had already grown accustomed to it; besides, the towering trees blocked out the sun, and looking up rarely revealed the sky anyway.
Several thousand cultivators each found themselves appearing inside separate rooms. The rooms were small, built from spirit stones, and in the corner of each lay a single medicinal pill, meant to help them recover the physical strength and heal the injuries they had sustained during the Tower-Capture Battles.
