Chapter 19: Relentless Sacrifices, the Cunning of the Wolf Pack
Qin Feng boiled some hot water for Grandpa Zhang Duo using a steel canteen. He also roasted a piece of succulent, golden-brown roe deer meat to help him fill his stomach. Grandpa Zhang Duo praised Qin Feng, calling him a hero among youth, and promised that upon returning to the village, he would surely beat drums and gongs to show his gratitude for Qin Feng’s life-saving grace. Qin Feng smiled and waved a hand, "We are all mountain folks from the same village; talking like that is a bit too formal."
Of course, the Wang clan had over ten thousand members at the time. As the head of the family, Wang Xingyuan had naturally made some preparations, but against a force that completely overwhelmed their own, all efforts were in vain. Unable to stem the tide of defeat, he was forced to break through the encirclement, abandoning the vast majority of his kin and leading only his direct descendants into the Peach Forest.
However, examining the naval systems of various European nations, their warships seemed insufficient in number, their transport vessels too solitary, and they lacked specialized ships for surveying and reconnaissance; it seemed they were not yet enough to be called a proper navy.
In the past, their annual income was so meager that they could only afford a proper meal during the Lunar New Year. But working in the factory was different. Every time they received their wages, they would generously set aside some money for the head of the household to go to town and buy meat, improving their quality of life.
At this moment, an obscure force field surged in, and Xie En, who had just opened his mouth, seemed to realize something.
As soon as Albert and Sergei saw Zhou Nan, they began to leap with excitement, snorting and letting out occasional long neighs.
Although Gongsun Du had submitted to Yuan Shao, he remained a separatist warlord at heart, treating the four commanderies of Liaodong as his own private garden.
Zheng He held a fan in his hand. When he opened it, the surrounding air seemed to be sliced apart, forming a sealed space that protected him.
"The Wish Tree fruit I just gave you is worth at least one million spiritual energy points, and it’s a priceless treasure that money can't buy. You don't grasp the concept of one million spiritual energy points yet, but you can think of it as the combined wealth of the entire Jizhou Province."
"Take me to find your towel so I can wash your face. Let's go!" Liu Qing got off the bed, waited for me to put on my high heels, then pulled me out of Jingjing’s bedroom, looking around.
This was the incriminating evidence he held against Liu Jinrong. However, Fan Tieran would not bring it out, nor would he use it to threaten Liu Jinrong. Their relationship was good for now, and he intended to keep it that way.
Many experts spend their entire lives specializing in only one type of material within a single field. Although Zhou Rui had a cheat, he still needed to define a direction first.
Hearing this, Li Zhi swept a cold glance toward Sha Nan, his eyes full of contempt and mockery, as if he did not regard Sha Nan as anything at all.
She wasn't exactly beautiful, but at least the masculine edge had faded significantly; one could tell she was a woman now.
Pure and untainted, she had thought about killing Ming Zhitian and then taking her own life, but she eventually let it go. If she insisted on killing him, she would be trapped in an endless cycle of illusions forever. Though she had broken free, the incident remained buried deep in her heart, impossible to shake off.
However, the next second, when she saw out of the corner of her eye the Void Frost Dragon on Chen Wei’s shoulder looking like it was watching a show, and then the strikingly handsome face that emerged after he turned around.
The butler grew even more furious upon seeing them surrender. He stiffened his neck and hurled even harsher insults, his old face turning bright red.
Fan Miaomiao hurried away, shyly. A few minutes later, Ming Zhitian made a dashing entrance, and Fan Miaomiao was left stunned.
After many years, Zhu Xinnian had returned to the city of Linzi. Compared to the first time, when demons ran rampant and corpses littered the ground, or the second time, when the flames of war raged and the people suffered, the city of Linzi had finally regained some vitality under the management of Princess Zhen. It finally looked like the capital of a nation.
He also had to protect Qin Lang. His explosive temper made him wish he could dig up his eldest brother's ancestors from the demon burial grounds and lash them.
"Counterattack with a Tackle." After dodging the attack, the Water Sprite immediately launched a Tackle as a counterattack against Marill, dealing significant damage.
How bored must Klein be to waste gold pounds on renting extraordinary items just for fun... I am not jealous! Controlling "The World," Klein couldn't help but turn his head toward "The Empress" and cast a look of "I'm disappointed in you."
Shen Yanyue felt this method was feasible. No matter what Shen Wei had said, she could explain it away once she had the letter in hand.
"Your sister-in-law is likely a hen that can't lay eggs. I don't think their marriage will last, and our Si family cannot be without an heir. Your brother is like a big fool, acting like nothing is wrong all day long. Your brother is foolish, but your mother isn't. We have to plan for him."
Wu Xie and Chen Hao listened to Fatty bragging without exposing him. Just then, Wu Xie noticed that there were two bullet holes in the skull of the skeleton.
Business at the Haicheng store had gradually declined following the end of the Tang Qin catering service's free meal promotion.
As for whether this problem occurred before or after Haitang was admitted to the hospital, it was impossible to say.
The team members had finished treating most of the wounded, picked up weapons from the ground, and rode the Lingteng camels to my side.
The white marble gate stood over 4 meters high and 4 meters wide, carved with many centipede-dragons, resembling giant centipedes flying in the sky, looking extremely bizarre.
After a loud roar, it quickly opened its blood-red maw... A thick, foul stench erupted, followed by billowing black smoke. In an instant, the entire hall was filled with black mist, the stench so pungent it made one gag.
Before long, what lay ahead was no longer the colorful sphere, but a vast expanse of hazy mist. Tianlong sensed a power so great it defied the heavens coming from within the mist. He was a bit afraid, wondering if he should continue deeper, but in the end, he chose to press on.
A map appeared in his sea of consciousness to lock onto the location of the teleportation array; he would have to use this path to return to the Longquan Continent in the future.
"Look at how arrogant you are." Although Xia Ling didn't say it aloud, Su Yaoxing’s skill could not be ignored. He was a dark horse in the basketball world.
This was because, in his perception, he had not felt the footsteps of the person approaching. Such a silent approach was highly unusual, especially given his increasingly keen hearing, which had undergone a powerful transformation since he reached the Golden Core stage.
"Pan Lei? Are you saying all this is Pan Lei’s conspiracy?" Chen Liu widened his eyes in disbelief. In his view, although their relationship wasn't necessarily harmonious, there were no major conflicts, and he had always been loyal to the gang leader; it was impossible for him to do such a thing.
The demon army charged like ferocious tigers. Soon, black and white collided, and the entire sky was illuminated by countless powerful techniques. Countless gods and demons fell like dumplings, and Michael and the others were locked in battle with the seven fallen angels of the demon army. Only the Demon King was nowhere to be seen.
Four return-to-city stones had been set up around the teleportation point. Wang Yitian didn't know which one Jing’er and the others would return from, so he didn't plan to go to any of them, choosing instead to stand at the teleportation point and wait for them silently.
