Volume 1, Chapter 22: She and He Were Too Close...
After Chu Feng was escorted into the Joyous Palace, Su Mei'er unlocked his shackles, as he offered no resistance and maintained a cooperative attitude.
The man in black, who had been lying on the ground, suddenly levitated and vanished into the swirling dark mist. The mist then drifted to the side and disappeared in front of Feng Ye.
Although everyone had previously speculated that Chu Feng would likely become the world champion and break world records once again, the reality was even more staggering. There was no direct, violent collision, yet every strike carried such immense power that the air itself vibrated and boomed with sonic cracks; when these strikes hit the stone slabs, the ground would instantly crumble and shatter.
Around two o'clock in the afternoon, "God Chu," who had been the subject of continuous attention and heated discussion among netizens, posted a message on Weibo.
It was a great catastrophe. The cultivators of the East Sea were powerless to resist or prevent it, and could only watch as this ancient god wreaked havoc.
You Jingyan was quite curious about Li Ningming’s visit; he knew from history that this prince had a fondness for Taoism and the Legalist school of Confucianism.
The strike of divine will, condensed from the power of ten thousand demons, tore through the void and exploded thunderously within the consciousness of the Dark God Lord.
After receiving his orders, Ling Tong led three thousand troops to depart from Ruxukou. As a cloud of dust rose ahead, the Liang army arrived. The vanguard, Zhang Liao, clashed with Ling Tong, and after more than fifty exchanges, the battle remained a stalemate.
Previously, hearing from others that Li Ling'er had committed suicide for him had been painful, but it was nothing compared to the agony and restlessness he felt after reading this letter.
Just when Serena thought Jamie would ignore Beth, Jamie actually pulled the RV over to the side of the road.
A brilliant flash of lightning erupted in the arena. Yuan He was sent flying backward, his body charred and smoking; clearly, his injuries were severe.
Li An’s willingness to collaborate with Zhang Ziyi a second time showed that he did not care about Zhang Yimou’s trend-following actions.
Han Feng stood up, pretending to understand Li Xiao perfectly, and poured a cup of peach blossom wine from a vintage he had kept hidden for decades.
Could it be that the Divine Beast family intended to use this place as a "coliseum" for monsters? Were they planning to let their younger disciples come here to gain experience once the facility was fully established? I pondered for a long time but could not reach a conclusion. However, one thing was certain: to get out, one had to defeat the Wind God Guards.
It must be said that these great aristocratic families had long since become parasites and malignant tumors, clinging to the decaying body of the Great Yong and sucking its blood and flesh.
"Damn it, this old bastard, he really wants to run me into the ground!" I stepped on the note in a fit of rage and ground it fiercely under my heel.
Li Xiao didn't know what to say; as the saying goes, one does not strike a smiling face. Since the other party was so sincere, he could not continue to be aggressive.
"The two saints of Buddhism have personally granted me their word. It would be highly improper for them to obstruct me further," Li Hao said.
After all, if he personally killed Meng Yuan, the treasure chest would automatically drop three levels... and depending on the stage, it could potentially drop by four.
Liu Youde’s eyes widened in fury. He pointed at his son, so angry that he couldn't speak for a long time.
After eating and drinking her fill, Li Jiayan regained some of her spirits. She looked up at Song Yanyu and remained silent.
Shen Zhou did not resist throughout the process, allowing them to shove him into the car. He closed his eyes to gauge the speed and direction of the vehicle; since he was quite familiar with the area, he only needed to calculate for a moment in his mind to determine where they were taking him.
Ah Hu had been a professional player and had never tasted defeat. The moment Hei Zi made a move, he had already anticipated the direction of the movement based on the opponent's muscle reactions.
Before she could react, blood sprayed from the severed stump of her neck, coating her face entirely.
Before arriving, she had agreed with Mi Tang that once she replaced Shen Miaomiao as a guest on the program, she would knock on Director Liu's door.
Logically, if he wanted to help Shen Miaomiao, he could have simply released the news that Xue Shang Feitian had not committed suicide.
Shen Zhou was taken aback by his words. He looked into Cao Shuang’s eyes, and the latter wore a panicked expression, even warning him not to speak of that day.
The family of three walked over with smiles on their faces, though they could not hide the exhaustion and frailty in their expressions.
It is worth mentioning that even the killer, who had few rivals among those at the Shattering Realm, felt his breath catch and his expression turn wary the moment he saw the newcomer.
In an instant, the group was paralyzed and slowed by the flashes of purple lightning. Although Xie Yue’s "Triple Lightning Intent" did not inflict great damage on these hunters, paralyzing them for even a single breath was more than enough.
"Trying to assassinate me? Die!" Lin Dong’s roar rolled from his throat as his staff struck out, claiming another life.
Damn, my homeroom teacher is actually acting coy with me. Thinking about her coquettish manner, I almost lost my composure. I said, "If you want me to believe you, that's fine—I really like your legs in silk stockings. Send me a photo right now."
Since he said that, Su Shan was naturally not there. Du Fei just felt something was strange and wanted to come check, but since Su Shan wasn't present, that was a different matter.
The Drift God Marquis stood motionless for a long time before finally letting out a long howl. With a wave of his hand, a deep pit appeared on the earth. He cast the corpses of tens of thousands of Spirit Clan members into the pit, and finally, he moved a towering mountain to sit atop them.
"Should I interpret your meaning as me not being beautiful enough?" An Xin gritted her teeth and said.
Alia’s method was simple, yet far more approachable; she suddenly vanished from where she stood and reappeared right beside Wei Zijie.
A sudden commotion came from ahead, and Jiang Yuan abruptly halted his steps. The area in front had suddenly opened up, revealing a vast underground space.
The great battle was imminent. The troops held their breath, and the massive plaza fell silent, save for the faint, fluttering sound of wind against flags.
Shao Yue’s voice trembled; perhaps because she hadn't spoken for a long time, she couldn't even get her words out clearly.
He spoke with such an air of inevitability that Lu Yushi couldn't find anything to say, forcing her to swallow all her words.
"I always feel uncomfortable in my neck when I wear this thing. Unless it’s for business, I’m never wearing clothes like this," John Walker muttered.
