Twenty-seven, twenty-seven.

"Mr. Lu Wu, shall we sit down and have a proper talk?" I was terrified, yet I had to force myself to walk forward, feigning fearlessness. Awkwardly, Lu Wu’s expression remained unchanged, leaving me unable to discern his thoughts.

The old man, likely intoxicated as well, began to roar along with Han Yang, his words dripping with resentment and anger.

Along the way, soldiers behind Yi Chuan kept calling out about monsters they had encountered, but Yi Chuan dismissed them all. The few that might have been suitable were too small in number, forcing him to abandon them.

Bradley chuckled, "Oh, you are too kind, old man. This is my home, after all. If guests arrived and I were unaware, wouldn't that be a discourtesy? Come, come, don't stand on ceremony, let us have a drink together."

"Haha, you were scared, weren't you! Let me tell you, I bought everything I needed and stored it in my spatial ring long ago, because when the old man gave it to me, he told me I would return to this world one day," Qin Tian said with a smug grin, puffing out a cloud of smoke.

The location Bradley chose was the most remote corner of Heaven City. It was barren, but it suited the peculiar nature of a church perfectly, so Bradley agreed immediately, hoping it might also help bring some life to the area.

We supported each other as we entered, and the moment we looked up, we saw a faint, long-lost light at the end of our gaze.

"I understand. I will only call Chen Jie; he will handle the relevant matters." Yuan Mingcheng had no choice but to agree to the demands of Fujita and the others.

Xia Fangyuan was naturally no match for Gong Shaoxie’s strength, and with no other options, she revealed her true form before him.

"Yay, we won!" The members of the Super GUTS team rushed out of the Super Victory Falcon, cheering and embracing Zhang Shaofei and Asuka in their excitement.

"The hope is slim... but it is hope nonetheless. However... brother, you... will only have one outcome..." Mu Hui climbed up, staring intently at Yuan Wei.

"Disperse! Prepare to intercept the enemy's super elemental cannon strike!" Zhang Shaofei suddenly commanded. He was well aware of the test that had just occurred; it was a standard tactic of the Silver Her Empire.

"Oh, oh, off to save someone again, are you?" Mu Ai put on an expression of sudden realization. He always loved to taunt her with the story of that time she had recklessly braved the Underground Demon Prison alone to rescue Ta Yang, and it worked every single time.

"It is nothing. Go back and practice with the others; I’m going to wander through the other tunnels." Saying this, Yuan Wei chose a tunnel at random, flustered, and stepped inside.

Despite feeling utterly exhausted after the long journey, she hurried to pick up a broom and began to clean.

Mu Qingxue let out a soft exclamation, her beautiful eyes wide with disbelief as she looked at Mu Tianlang. Since when had her father become so open-minded? Hadn't he warned her not to date in high school? Why was he smiling so cheerfully now that he knew she had a boyfriend?

Two security guards stepped forward, flanked Su Nan, and led him toward the security office, thinking to themselves that once he was inside, he would have no say in the matter and would inevitably suffer.

Under the crushing pressure of the Six Harmonies Great Trend, Luo Chenghui’s internal organs were already damaged. Now, struck by Mo Qiu’s palm, his heart was shattered instantly, killing him in one blow.

Seeing the flicker in his eyes, I guessed his mother must be critically ill. Without asking, I took out the envelope, pulled out half the money, and handed it to him.

Lota stroked the pale yellow wind-element magic cores and sighed. He remembered how difficult it had been for him to hunt a Tier 5 magical beast back in the day—chasing it from north to south, going through hell just to kill it. Now, even without Lucia intervening, he could achieve a similar effect just by pulling out a Gatling gun and mowing them down.

This shocked them, and when they asked why, the answer was brief: it was the Tiga red light—easy to strike and succeed.

With these words acting as an imperial decree, Han Haofan made a call right then and there. After a brief conversation, he received his response.

"Never abandon, never give up! That is my motto. So, Holy One, I hope we can fight fairly. You should know, I have no magic spells and no bricks, you understand what I mean, right?" Qiong Qi looked at Lin Xu, his gaze piercing and sharp.

Lately, he had discovered that every time he finished his cultivation, impurities were expelled from his body. Every time, he had to prepare a large tub of water for bathing.

Using his tentacles to form sharp claws, he gripped the dry well wall and slid down. The dry well was deep—at least 50 meters. Once he reached the bottom, there was no moonlight at all, but Lota could barely make out the surroundings. He continued downward until he reached the very floor of the well.

Manchester United defeating Real Madrid was not a surprise, but Cristiano Ronaldo was truly on fire. Facing Real Madrid, he scored two goals, drew four yellow cards, took out his former teammate Heinze, and even clashed with Real Madrid players—a media sensation, thrilling indeed.

I forgot to mention, Tang Hai’s father was a famous building contractor in Jiangchuan City, the kind of person you could see on almost every major project. Although the developers took the lion's share of the profits, thanks to the construction boom in recent years, the number of workers under Tang Hai’s father had rapidly swelled to several hundred.

The middle-aged man clutched the black briefcase tightly to his chest. Hidden behind his sunglasses, his eyes were unreadable, but judging by how those around him addressed him, there was no doubt this was Lu Yue.

These three sets of numbers corresponded to three positions on the map: the north (3, 6, 9), the east (2, 5, 8), and the west (1, 4, 7). The locations of these three sets of numbers, combined with the place where Li Zhaoyuan was currently standing, formed the four cardinal directions of north, south, east, and west.

A massive sword aura, over a yard thick, erupted into the sky, covering the entire range where Feng Ni could have dodged.

Without the support and command of Yin Tao’s elemental power, the remaining sixty-plus earth-beings crumbled in an instant! With a loud crash, they turned into clouds of dust that scattered in the wind. In the center of the vast arena, only Qiao San remained, still struggling to stand.

The herbal fragrance around Yuan Hong was already exceptionally rich, drawing the fish in the lake to gather around. They poked their heads above the surface, breathing and gulping the air, appearing incredibly excited.

The basketball coach chatted with Lin Fan with great interest, his gaze occasionally drifting toward Ling Qi. She pretended not to notice and continued her layup warm-ups, her high shooting percentage drawing bursts of applause from the boys.

Rolling water vapor surged in like an overwhelming tide, whistling and roaring, blotting out the sun as if a massive fog had filled the heavens. Several large rivers in the distance near the Beast Arena rumbled, turning into white dragons that lunged forward.

"Why is he here?" Not far from the entrance, Ren Huang frowned slightly, then suddenly realized—the talents of the Great Zhou were all gathered in Nanjun, and the leaders were naturally those princes.
