Volume 1, Chapter 40: Kneel Down and Apologize to Me!
If it were a one-on-one fight, none of them would be my match. However, the disadvantage lay in their sheer numbers; for a moment, Tang Song and I were overwhelmed, finding the struggle increasingly arduous. I even took two hits because I let my guard down for a split second.
When it came to close-quarters combat techniques, Feng Ren did not believe he would fall behind, even against the Demon Realm’s Royal Palace. Furthermore, the current Luo Yu was not his former self; his strength had diminished significantly.
The Empress Dowager turned around and offered a faint smile, her expression tinged with loneliness. She understood what the Grand Empress Dowager meant. With Labu moving into Prince Jian’s mansion so brazenly, it must have been painful for Duanmin to witness; perhaps going to Horqin in Mongolia would be a fresh start for her.
It was ridiculous. This time, it was Ye Yingning who proposed to Zhou Yang—or rather, the man who was now Gu Mocun.
Even Long Yuxuan was startled when he heard the introduction of these spirit pills. One had to know that alchemists were rare and precious even within the Dragon Clan; outside of the clan, it was even rarer to find someone capable of refining high-grade spirit pills.
Lowering his head to glance at Bai Siyan’s boot beneath his foot, Wenren Haitang’s eyelid twitched. He had to admit that he had been a beat too slow, yet he remained unwilling to accept it.
He suddenly felt an unprecedented sense of helplessness and panic. For the first time, he truly understood what it meant to lose someone. She was clearly still alive, yet he had already lost her forever.
Watching Feng Ren, whose eyes were still slightly red, Feng Wudao sighed deeply. When he had faced that situation, he had been consumed by agony for days, nearly driven to madness, yet he had not recovered nearly as quickly as this.
Long Yuhan and Luo Wanyin arrived at the site for the draw. After the results were announced and they realized they were not matched against each other, they could not help but exchange smiles.
After the Imperial Noble Consort, Prince Li, and the Princess Consort of Li departed with ashen faces, the Emperor turned his gaze toward Murong Qingyun. Since the blood test results proved he was not the Empress’s illegitimate son, he had to begin taking steps to appease the Murong household.
Murong Qingyu was filled with resentment, but the poison in her body had begun to take effect. Her heart was gripped by excruciating pain, and she trembled, unable to utter a complete sentence, her entire body covered in a fine layer of cold sweat.
A dozen minutes later, all thirty-some elves returned, handing the photographic magic device over to Guedis.
People were successively teleported out from the Abyss of Ancestors, but they gradually became somewhat dissatisfied. Everyone’s cultivation had increased by varying degrees, yet the new inheritance had still not appeared.
Ye Yun’s residence was quite far from the Ye family manor. The carriage jolted along for a long time. By the time it stopped, Ye Yun was already sober, not a hint of intoxication remaining.
Silence pervaded the surroundings. No one had expected that this youth of about twenty could defeat Mo Lan, a genius ranked in the top fifty of the Imperial Rankings. The crowd was stunned, staring at the scene in disbelief, as if something impossible had occurred.
Under the impact of the Heaven-Extinguishing Sword, the golden light vanished instantly, revealing Bazel’s body. Bazel was covered by a layer of solid, red film and remained unharmed, though his expression was grim, his eyes glowing with a predatory red light.
She picked up a pill and sniffed it at the tip of her nose, her delicate brows knitting together. Even though she was familiar with hundreds of medicinal herbs, she truly could not identify what was contained within it.
"I'm just curious, all right? I just like to meddle in other people's business, is that fine?" Wu Yun said while making a face.
Hao Lan gritted his teeth to endure the pain, gathering his strength in one go to frantically concentrate lightning elements onto his demon blade. He then forged a lightning chain to bind both the smart-machine and himself.
At this moment, another voice roared domineeringly—it was the master of the green-and-white-robed disciple, the Sect Leader of the Green Lotus Sect.
The group traveled in a van toward the location of the Vulture. To prevent being tracked by the FBI, they deliberately took a detour. Moreover, the device on Scott’s leg was removed by Shawn and attached to a dog.
"What kind of medicine is this?" It was packed in such a large wooden crate, looking like a coffin; those who didn't know might think it contained a corpse.
Because Loki had traveled to Jotunheim to strike a bargain with Laufey, King of the Frost Giants, he promised that he would allow Laufey to enter Asgard to kill the All-Father Odin and return the Casket of Ancient Winters—the artifact of the Frost Giants—to him, all in exchange for preventing a potential war between the two realms.
The group played until they lost track of time, and before they knew it, it was lunchtime.
Power was like an addictive poison. Before Ran Min had even prepared to relinquish it, he heard news that Ran Ming was plotting a rebellion. Ran Min, naturally, would not believe it lightly; he possessed the "Heavenly Deaf and Earthly Mute" to investigate.
Furthermore, the agents of Number 76 came from all walks of life. These people engaged in extortion and every kind of evil, becoming the source of chaos in Shanghai.
To different Kree, the Supreme Intelligence took on different forms before them; essentially, everyone saw the person they most hoped to see in their heart.
The entourage accompanying Ran Ming this time, in addition to Jin Chengyue and Helena, actually included a large number of Romans. They also brought massive amounts of technology and equipment, having almost entirely emptied the Ningyuan Shipyard. All these personnel and equipment were transported toward Yecheng in heavy, four-wheeled carriages.
