Volume 1, Chapter 30: A Rain of Arrows Shatters the Foe
Fan Yong looked quite relaxed, presumably because Wang Deyong had given him some reassurance. Feeling at ease, he ordered the kitchen staff to hurry and prepare lamb offal soup so everyone could warm up, as they sat waiting for news of victory.
In the wild plum grove on Qingyi Mountain, there were surprisingly four or five rare varieties of plum blossoms. Beyond the common wintersweet and red plum, there were also green-calyx, cinnabar, apricot-plum, and cherry-plum varieties, all blooming brilliantly against the sunlight, their fragrance fresh, secluded, and delightful.
Descending, descending further, enduring pain, and enduring even more, all for the sake of not drowning in this river.
Indeed, the smell of gas was seeping from the door gap, making it clear that something was terribly wrong inside the room. Without hesitation, Lin Tiansheng picked up his own key and began fumbling with the lock.
At this moment, in a spacious conference room at the Wenling County Police Station, a dozen officers sat on either side.
Lu Nan betrayed Ilya without mercy. He reminded Putin that he should investigate the phone records between a certain sub-lieutenant of the Black Sea Fleet and Ilya over the past two years.
Outer Mongolia originally belonged to China; taking advantage of our nation’s struggle against Japan to extort it away was purely the Soviet Union kicking us while we were down. Now is the time for them to cough up this territory and return it to the motherland.
He then saw and heard his past-life self, on a pitch-black night while fleeing the place of his punishment, huddled together with Yiyun, who had already become his wife.
Just as Jiang Yunlong was feeling hesitant, Wu Yaoguo had already decided not to give Wang Ronghai another chance.
The entire regiment of over ten thousand men quickly split to both sides, instantly dodging the laser beams. Immediately after, Fengyun Jiuge patted the head of the Hellhound, which spewed a burst of hellfire, instantly engulfing the entire field.
The development of commerce gave Gudea the financial resources to build many water conservancy facilities, so agricultural conditions were also quite good.
Adding all these things together, with just a little deduction, anyone could make the most accurate judgment about the situation at hand.
As the sun set, Li Heng dragged his weary steps toward the inner palace, the golden afterglow reflecting on his back and casting a long, slanted shadow, making him appear aged and exhausted.
Emerging on the other side of the spatial passage, it was an unfamiliar star field. Shi Hong compared it to his memories and discovered that this was indeed the location corresponding to the Pangu Sky Axe among the ten great ancient ruins. It was evident that both Lietianhen and Huangquanpo had been doing their homework in secret all these years.
Upon hearing this condition, many fell silent, unable to understand why there had to be such restrictions if the goal was for everyone to get rich. Perhaps this reflected the difference in foresight: wise men look to tomorrow, the mediocre look only at the present, and the foolish dwell on the past.
Thinking of going home with silver in his pocket, a wife, children, and a warm bed, he felt there was nothing more wonderful in the world.
Author’s note: Do not ask me why there are carnations and roses in this world; it is simply to make things easier for the reader, much like coffee and red wine. Apart from a few special settings, most things still replicate the real world. A rational explanation exists, but I will not state it now.
Unable to figure out the entanglement between Lawrence and Haydn, Lawrence, with eyes burning red, lunged with a sword. The blade flickered with a yellow glow—it was the authentic "King Snake’s Pupil." Tang Yi flicked his wrist, and his military knife accurately met the tip of the sword.
Thus, before the scene of the execution, everything was handled by Terumi Mei, having nothing to do with the Mizukage.
David had begun to stop at nothing to achieve his goals, lying without even blinking, yet Hagrid actually believed him, especially agreeing with that last statement.
At this moment, Fairy Mu slowly shed her clothes, her flawless, jade-like body radiating a spiritual light that only dissipated once she entered the wooden tub.
Bang! The Japanese upper ninja struck Li Xiuxian’s chest with a punch, causing his body to fall heavily and smash into the ground.
Sea Snake felt as if his heart were being clawed by a hundred claws, thinking that despite his background as a special forces soldier, he had ended up in such a state during these troubled times.
Catherine could no longer help but burst into laughter, then pointed meaningfully at David and said, "Do not hurt those who love you."
Although the lyrics were not perfectly polished, the construction of the artistic conception was manifested to the fullest... Had Qin Yu’s status been that of a mere subject, Guo Tianxu would not have raised such a question.
It was not until the four removed the masks from their heads, revealing their true faces, that a trace of astonishment flashed across Qin Yu’s eyes.
Stepping forward to dodge the lightning attack range, he bent down as a magic projectile released from a staff flew over his head. Li Chen acted again, delivering another slash that struck another magic wand.
Coupled with this exceptionally delicious-looking beauty before him, the flames in Su Ye’s heart were constantly being stoked.
He thought that by having people build such momentum, he had already demonstrated the Jin family’s power, and that tonight, Qin Tian would surely be unable to sleep, or even be afraid.
Yet, once something becomes a mental demon or a deep-seated obsession, how many can truly let it go? Even if one does, becoming heartless and emotionless like a puppet, what meaning is there in living on to become an immortal?
"Hey!" Thirteen looked up, but the figure was nowhere to be seen. He squatted down and silently picked up the fox-fur cloak, which had been stepped on and marked with footprints.
"Yeah, it’s really quite good. You look good in anything." Mo Wang kept nodding and praising from the side.
Yi Ning saw Luo Shenyuan’s soaked shoulders and remembered that when they returned just now, she had been tucked into his embrace, not getting wet at all.
Everyone turned around and discovered an old carriage slowly approaching, escorted by more than a dozen practitioners.
"Sister, it is just as you said! I thought I was doomed this time!" She joyfully pulled Mu Qingqing, who had just entered the room, her face full of delight.
