Thirty-seven degrees of warmth.

Pei Zailong had always been cheerful and even-tempered, to the point that people sometimes mistook him for someone incapable of any other emotion. Now, however, his face was clouded with thought and worry. He did not entirely agree, but he trusted everyone’s choice.
Alina knew that when they had encountered Yu Hao and Xuan Lin in Demon Emperor City, the two had addressed each other as brothers.
Many people began whispering among themselves, discussing the matter. Most were speculating about Xu Tian’s origins, while some believed that Xu Tian had made himself a powerful enemy.
More than ten thousand people had died. Could their three thousand men really hope to rescue them? Wouldn’t that merely send them to their deaths?
By the time the three arrived at Immortal Venerable Town, Zhang Meng had already followed the original plan and headed for the police station. Dai Anliu, meanwhile, was perfectly fine. Somehow, he had found his own motorcycle and was repairing it. Zhang Shaozhuo had been unable to find Ge Yueying, so he asked Dai Anliu.
After walking through a long passage, Xu Tian finally emerged and entered a vast mountain chamber that had clearly been excavated by human hands. The interior of the mountain had been hollowed out, creating an enormous open space.
Xu Tian sneered inwardly, but on the surface continued pretending to be grievously wounded. “Die!” the burly man said with a cold laugh as he watched Xu Tian seemingly lose the strength to stand.
But things would be entirely different in the greater world. The destructive shock wave would sweep across hundreds of millions of miles of mountains and land, leaving countless lives devastated and rivers of blood in its wake. There would be corpses everywhere—until even the bones were gone.
Just then, a dark-purple shadow suddenly flew across the image, and the aerial footage was abruptly cut off.
Zhao Hao’s tone was casual, as though what Manji was about to experience would be effortless. Manji was no fool, however, and had vaguely sensed the danger of his situation. Yet he was a man who kept his promises. Even knowing it was dangerous, he continued inward with Orochimaru.
The civil war in Chile, South America, had just ended, and the country had entered a period of economic development. Its arms race with Argentina had also come to an end, and a cruiser ordered from Britain in earlier years was already slated for resale.
Guo Fu continued to ramble on. Liu Mang heard most of what he said, but a strangely excited loneliness lingered in his heart.
If he developed a security assistant of his own, something similar, he ought to be able to make a fortune from it as well.

“I’m fine. This formation is too strange, yet wonderfully profound. If I hadn’t had a soft-armored magical artifact protecting me, I would have been injured long ago!” Chen Yun forced himself to rally and spoke.
This was already the pinnacle of the qi-refining path. How could he be as he had claimed just now? He was merely at the seventh level of qi refinement. There was no reason for it! That man had definitely lied.
A moment later, Bruce secretly clenched his teeth. His objective approach had failed. Since the other party had ignored him, what should he do next? Perhaps he should try a more personal approach—make a little small talk, build some rapport, as the Chinese saying went.
Peng Ming knew only that Chen Tian was a student at the Elite Academy. He did not know that Chen Tian had already become a Saint, nor did he know how the conversation with the major general had gone. He could not help feeling deeply uneasy.
But this was a merciless war. The allies of the present had been locked in fierce opposition only moments ago. Mu Rong Xiao truly could not feel at ease entrusting Mount Buzhou to these extraterrestrial life-forms.
“Coachman, let’s go! White River Town—that was where I began.” Xu Han’s words were laden with meaning.
Meteors were nothing unusual; they could often be seen in the night sky. They were simply never usually this close. Some young people with dreams in their hearts believed that wishes made on this occasion were bound to come true, and hurriedly closed their eyes, praying with utmost sincerity.
The Hall Master of the Xing Hall and I concealed our forms nearby, watching the spectacle with faint, unreadable smiles as we waited to see how Skyfire would handle it.
When she reached the palace gates, she presented her token and announced herself. The guards immediately let her through, and she hurried into the palace.
Early that morning, the iron gates of the presidential residence were tightly shut. Reporters crowded outside, all hoping to be the first to interview Duke Huo.
As the new term began, Ou Qianqian became a freshman at Linhai University, while Zhou Xuan also entered his classroom.
“What are you doing? No, I don’t want that. Until you truly erase those mistaken ideas of yours, I won’t let you touch me. I don’t want to become too deeply entangled with you. Hmph.” Luo Ningyu deliberately acted petulant.
Then again, on second thought, Butterfly Wing Peak was wealthy enough. They probably had superior materials for refining magical artifacts, so why should she worry about them?

“You’ll make money off anything!” Ji Sheng, standing nearby, was furious as well. He raised his hand and moved to strike him, but Zhou Xuan stopped him. The law would naturally punish them.
Wang Luochen thought this to himself, then infused his fist with elemental energy and tried punching the energy-devouring beast.
In truth, the barrier itself was not particularly powerful. Lin Xiao had already inscribed a supreme defensive formation here when he first came to the estate, preparing for emergencies. He had never expected it to come in handy now.
Xue Luo remembered that she seemed to have drawn only one complete frontal portrait of Feng Xinglang. And hadn’t she already thrown it into the trash? How had it ended up in the hands of his son, Lin Nuo?
“All right!” After all, she had already entered the man’s room in Jiangcheng many times. There was nothing to feel embarrassed about.
Before this, she had merely thought that the Commerce Department was a special department. First, it accepted no supervision from any other department, and working there offered considerable freedom. Second, there was plenty to learn there, and because of her status, she probably would not have to work too hard.
Moreover, Qin Hao’s aura had now become completely impossible to read. One moment he had seemed like an ordinary person; the next, his presence had become elusive and unfathomable. If Qin Hao’s aura was now a towering mountain, then the six of them were nothing more than a flower and a blade of grass upon it.
Yet after fuming for a while, she realized that this zombie seemed rather unusual. Why was he always the first to rush out whenever she was bullied? Could it be that, after being treated as emergency rations, a zombie had developed the instinct to guard its food?
Clearly, the so-called peach-blossom branch was a manifestation of a divine ability. Pink petals drifted through the air, crystalline and translucent yet terrifying, radiating immense power. Amid a sharp hissing sound, they left mottled bloody marks across Guo Hao’s fist and sliced open his arm.
One monster after another gradually bled dry before turning to dust. Only a drop or several drops of bright-red blood remained, and the plaque absorbed them.
Luo Anning and Fu Shaoquan sat quietly, listening as the lawyers on both sides battled with words. At last, the verdict was handed down: Angel Company had stolen the design drafts belonging to Luoquan Company and was ordered to compensate it.
