Volume 1, Chapter 31: A Shock to My Worldview!

The Immortal-Slaying Cannon is notoriously difficult to forge. It uses refined spirit stones as ammunition, with a cannon body cast from spirit iron and reinforced by intricate runic patterns. Once fired, it can devastate an area several miles wide, tearing through ranks of cultivators.

Chu Lian, his mind bewitched by Ziling and unwilling to see her fall into the arms of Fei Yunfan, insisted on interfering in the matter.

"Boss, that old bastard is no good. You aren't actually going to give him money, are you?" Ji Guangqiang asked indignantly.

Determined not to wait for nightfall, Nan Zhao seized the moment and rose early. Once Zhao Yong had left to deliver goods to the county seat, she made an excuse to head out—not to visit anyone else, but straight to Li Juanzi’s home.

Perhaps this would allow Whirlwind to close his eyes in peace. As an aerial Decepticon warrior, surrendering to Starscream, the former commander of the Decepticon Air Force, did not seem like such a spineless act after all.

A group of ordinary scholars discussed the cultivators—beings who could only be viewed from afar—with endless enthusiasm, seemingly devoid of fear. Such fearlessness is perhaps a trait unique to the people of the Divine Dynasty.

This clearly showed that everyone had misjudged Grimlock. Although the Dinobots were previously considered invincible, it did not mean they were arrogant; rather, the perceived invincibility of these mechanical beasts was merely a reflection of their challengers' incompetence.

Unlike the previous "Cash Back for Every Purchase" promotion, this time, every bit of the reward given would be returned in full.

Yet, there remained a few places that felt serene and detached, as if entirely unaffected by the tides of the world.

Ding Lun paid a visit to Hongkang Industrial, where Hong Jiantang personally received him. More than that, Hong Jiantang handed him an invitation to a family party that weekend.

Watching a child, once foolishly filial, shed his saintly naivety brought a sense of satisfaction that was beyond words.

Hearing Zhou Sitan confess his guilt, the older officer pretended not to hear, signaled the younger officer to step outside, and began to speak.

The officer, named Tian Tougangzi, spoke with great eloquence, striking a chord with the artillerymen. Unfortunately, pleasant moments are always prone to interruption; right beside them, a shrill voice suddenly rang out.

A day later, when Zhou Huan followed Bai Feifei to her studio, he let out a sigh.

He tapped on the message to find that the second round of the competition would take place in two days, and would be conducted via a video conference link.

The department head hurriedly grabbed a clean glass and poured half a cup of red wine for Shi Yu, but then, remembering that they were not allowed to drink during training, he froze with the glass in his hand.

Shi Mu glanced up at the team leader opposite, whose brow was furrowed in profound regret, as if he were lamenting his past mistakes.

With a sizzle, the iron giant hammer in Weng Li’s hand was melted by the intense heat radiating from the lava giant’s body.

The air seemed to stagnate, yet Yang Chan appeared entirely oblivious, walking straight ahead.

Fuji held Sakura tightly, a soft warmth blossoming in his heart—the very taste of happiness.

"Do we really... have to exclude her?" Coach Ryuzaki felt a complex mix of emotions, an indescribable pain in her heart.

Apart from the local residents who often visited the temple for idle chat, the crowd had swelled with Kd fans who had seen today’s trending topic on Weibo and were so shocked they could have died on the spot.

Just then, a flash of lightning streaked past Zhuang Qingyan’s back, and Wang Lingyun leaned in to whisper in her ear.

"Yaling, is Mr. Chu here?" At that moment, Situ Yaru walked out of an adjacent room, accompanied by a strikingly handsome man in a silver suit, exuding an air of noble refinement.

Moreover, after Yuanbao was born, her increasingly voluptuous figure and exquisite curves were so bewitchingly beautiful that he couldn't help but want to pin her beneath him and claim her thoroughly.

On the surface, Chi Jian showed no sign of anything amiss, but inwardly he sneered; had he shown even a hint of discouragement or failed to display his formidable strength, the situation would likely be quite different now.

"I’ve been ready for ages, just waiting for you. Who told you to act like a soft, white female mammal? I knocked three times and got no response." Recalling the snoring he’d heard through the door, Xia Jie cast a look of disdain at Lin Chu.

Only then did Wang Lingyun notice the vast fields of hydrangeas blooming around her. The clusters of flowers looked magnificent. Occasionally, snow-white butterflies would alight on the petals, shaking rainwater from the blooms into the puddles on the ground.

Because she was unfamiliar with the use of teleportation and had little spiritual energy left in her body, Qing Yue managed to jump only three hundred meters.

The snake remained haughty, but as it looked at Mo Gui, who was stained with its blood, a glint of killing intent flickered in its eyes.

Bai Shanxuan and the young man in white were so powerful; could the Four Great Saint Emperor Legions truly hope to shake them?

Mu Qingyu did not take Ye Feiyang directly to the Night Capital, but instead went to a boutique to select an evening gown for her.

"Long time no see, Lord Lu Ding." The leader was a stout man who looked at me with a smile.

Just being by her side, the overwhelming sense of happiness made it feel as if he had lost the original intention behind his love for her all those years ago.

Undoubtedly, Dai Mubai’s arrogance suffered an unprecedented blow at that moment. As Wang Ying released his spear, Dai Mubai, refusing to accept defeat, thrust his weapon forward once more.

But... what if one day she truly fell for him, and he returned those feelings?

Fu Tianmo gazed into the distance, his solemn expression making it clear that he was absolutely not joking.

Looking up, she caught the playful expression on Lan Ruohao’s face, and the feeling in her heart grew even stranger.

With a flick of her long sleeves, Xiao Meiniang led thousands of people in a grand procession toward the two peaks at the entrance.

Seeing Gao Bushi’s eyes tightly shut and his total lack of vitality, Pu Duo felt the urge to cry. Yet, just as his tears began to fall, Pu Duo noticed the fingers on Gao Bushi’s right hand twitch slightly.

After all, Luo Jiulang was still the head of the household and had his own dignity to maintain; he clenched his fists, trembling, yet determined to speak.

Perhaps these people had come initially to pay their respects to Master Jian, but once they caught sight of Jian Zhu, they could not tear their eyes away.

"Uncle, I have no appetite today," Po Yuan said, looking at the table full of delicacies, yet unable to summon any desire to eat.

After the death of Emperor Lizhong, Empress Wei immediately moved to install Prince Wen, Li Chongmao, as the new emperor, while appointing Prince Xiang, Li Dan, as the Grand Tutor to the Crown Prince, and taking the reins of power for herself as Empress Dowager.
