Unlike him, she and he had only ever shared a relationship of flesh and nothing more. Pinned beneath him, Gu Shenshen felt weak and powerless, lacking even the strength to push him away; she hadn’t eaten anything since early morning.

“I brought you something to eat, do you want to have a little first?” Gu Shenshen stared at the ceiling and asked in a low voice.

Zhou Ci paused, glanced at the food box on the bedside table.

“Has the person arrived?” Lin Zhuo was not surprised; these underground operators always preferred to conduct their affairs on the territories of Buddhist and Daoist temples.

The man who had just doubted the outcome was now dumbfounded, staring blankly, unable to comprehend how a human could possess such wrist strength. Could this be the legendary inner strength?

Now, the explosion had produced an unexpectedly spectacular effect. Not only was the Japanese army routed and destroyed, but the city of Hengjing was thrown into utter chaos by the earth-shattering blasts.

Hao Zhi suddenly remembered the note Duanmutong had left him before leaving, and his heart stirred. If he were on the mothership, his ability to jump would be greatly restricted, unable to fully unleash his power, so he voiced his own request.

Meanwhile, Xin Bin and the others had been desperately trying to capture towers during this period, using their temporary advantage to secure more resources.

What he needed to do now was ensure everyone worked together. Otherwise, if chaos broke out and the plan was disrupted, not a single one of them would survive, making the situation all the more difficult.

Ning Caichen is a god. As long as they accepted this fact, Ning Caichen’s influence became not only effective, but the most mysterious kind.

In his mind, anything that could evoke such a feeling must be a sacred beast. Of course, it could also mean that something like a lightning or electromagnetic storm was about to occur in the skies above this region.

She reached out and gently touched the person in the painting. “You thought I was dead, but I’ve always been alive.

At that moment, the supervising priest, accompanied by Lancer and the King of Heroes, came to her with a proposal for an alliance. Although she didn’t know what new scheme this priest, always lurking in the shadows, was plotting, Caster, having come up with a new plan, agreed to the priest’s alliance without hesitation.
