Chapter 35
After all, I was a guest, and they had treated me well, yet I had somehow managed to burn their house down.
"Family members, please do not interfere with my examination of the patient's pupils," the attending doctor said.
She cast aside her fear of the strange centipede and crept stealthily behind Long Jueying and his companion.
For some reason, seeing Ling Muchen injured caused Ji Nuan'er a sharp, inexplicable heartache, as if the one struck down were her own son; it was a sensation she could not quite grasp.
Her legs went weak, and she nearly collapsed to the ground, but fortunately, Mei Xiaogui, who was nearby, rushed over to support her.
Only Tu Hao paused to look at Ruijie, clearly caught off guard by the logic of these two master overthinkers.
There is a friend beside you who is your closest kin, someone Mo Qinglan once knew and trusted above all others. His constitution is unlike that of an ordinary person.
The Blue Crow possesses great offensive power, but its stamina and defense still seem lacking; it must continue to train diligently.
As Yang Mo fled the vicinity of the wooden training post and looked back, he saw that under the force of the strange wind technique, the post had already snapped in two.
A response came through the walkie-talkie, and the person on the other end began busily and anxiously searching for various materials from the other side of the globe, rushing about from place to place.
He understood perfectly that among students trying to create a gourmet dish in three minutes, many would surely choose eggs as their primary ingredient, yet these ordinary, unremarkable eggs were all he had.
Throughout the entire coastal region, the seabed was swarming... countless shrimp and crabs were silently slaughtering and devouring one another. More were crawling in from the deeper ocean, tearing and gnashing at each other.
He Guangming was only at the early stage of Qi Cultivation, and his divine sense was limited to a radius of four or five meters around him.
However, the First God Race, which also possessed the ability to control the Zerg, sensed a threat to their own kind.
But at least he had glimpsed what the Primal Core was concerned about: those colossal structures at the underground lunar base.
Moreover, in the old days, people generally believed in the feng shui of burial grounds, fearing that a lone grave would hinder the prosperity of future generations.
After descending for an unknown duration, the metal sphere suddenly ceased its descent. Then, it transformed into a metal disc and began to rise slowly.
"You lied to me!" Seeing Big Gold Tooth painting himself as a good man, the fatty complained loudly.
If they were to be exiled, the Cao family would certainly not be allowed to wear such attire; their fine silks would surely be stripped away, and they would certainly be searched. Being given a decent piece of coarse cloth would already be considered an exceptional favor.
Chen Yuan was a man of few words, and it was precisely for this reason that Gu Heng ultimately kept him by his side. As a dedicated driver, it was inevitable to occasionally encounter the boss's private matters; someone like him, who spoke little and did much, was undoubtedly more suitable.
The deputy village chief stumbled in front of Wu Xiaoyi like a human shield, and the lightning-fast figure slammed fiercely into him.
"What is happening now?" The martial artists who had witnessed the Demon General devouring people were well aware of the creature's terror.
In truth, Xiao Long had expended a great deal of effort searching for evidence of the Northwest Tang family’s crimes in order to deal with them.
"Hong Xue, let's go." Jia Libo emerged from the inner chamber, his tears not yet dry. His dejected and decadent appearance made him look suddenly much older.
Chai Hua swept his gaze across the scene, and those targeted by the Five Tigers and Niu Gang lowered their heads like mice.
As the temple gate opened, a nun of about thirty-seven or thirty-eight years old stepped out.
The night deepened. There was no moon in the sky, and there were no streetlights around Longtan Manor, making it pitch black, so dark one could not see their own hand.
As Ye Meng's strength improved inadvertently, he no longer had any use for the Earth Spirit Crystal he had previously obtained. This was because his method of stepping into the Five Elements Realm was unusual; he did not progress step-by-step like a typical cultivator, rendering the crystal useless.
Now that the Empress had violated palace regulations, the decision to depose her rested solely on a word from the Empress Dowager. However, out of consideration for the Yun family's reputation, the Empress Dowager remained soft-hearted and reluctant to pursue the matter. Someone would need to drop hints to help her make up her mind.
"Heh, who knows about these things we've never seen! Anyway, the champion of this year’s City Hero Tournament in Xiangtan is the Battle Gate, and they came from our Hunan University of Technology!" Li Zhi said this with a sense of pride. This was glory—the glory a victory brings to a school.
Too preoccupied to treat the strain on his body, he focused his mind and entered the Universe Cauldron; meanwhile, a speck of dust remained in his place.
"Sigh! Just do your best! A-Chao will teach you everything he knows." Zheng Pingwu didn't say much more, simply patting Wang Xiu on the shoulder.
"I know. I'm sorry." Ye Feng rested his chin on the top of Liu Wanruo's head, feeling a touch of remorse.
Ye Feng felt very unaccustomed to Liu Wanruo’s sudden change in demeanor, but strangely, he did not argue; everything seemed to happen as a matter of course.
The person who came to deliver the report was blocked by a barrier at the entrance of the Golden Autumn Courtyard. Unable to enter, he could only pace back and forth outside, frantic with anxiety.
A luxurious boat was docked by the lakeside, decorated with colorful ribbons, with large red lanterns hanging from the bow and stern. It looked very festive.
As time passed, the overwhelming figures coming toward them did not decrease but rather increased. With silhouettes filling the void, the sea surface was undoubtedly reaching a fever pitch.
After listening to Li Ye's explanation, Jin Zhizhen felt both disappointed and pleasantly surprised—disappointed that he hadn't guessed Li Ye's origins correctly, but surprised that Li Ye possessed such a background. He kept calculating the gains and losses in his mind. "Then, Commander Li, what are your plans for the future?" Jin Zhizhen asked, still unwilling to give up.
