Someone was typing in the chat window, but this time it was one of their own people. The receptionist translated the general meaning: “Poodle, stop playing around like this. Give Annie a little dignity in her final moments.”

“If it can truly resist the End, then that would be a good thing.” Liu Mu remained unmoved.

After clicking in, the screen proved unexpectedly exquisite. The registration page displayed a yin-yang symbol, representing the two opposing forces. Users could enter only after selecting their gender.

The young man finished speaking, turned around, and strode away, allowing the figure in golden robes to disappear from Lin Ling’s sight.

“Hello… Doctor Dong? How did you know my phone number?” Lin Ling listened in astonishment as Dong Yue-ran’s voice came through the receiver. When she had first seen that the incoming call was from Shanghai, she had assumed it was Liu Yin-xia, since the woman’s old number seemed to have stopped working.

Jin Ye did not tell Leng Feng the truth directly. What better excuse could there be—one more reasonable than this—for staying by the protagonist Leng Feng’s side and taking part in the unfolding story?

Considering the greater troubles and dangers ahead, they had no choice but to do this. It would be difficult, certainly, but what it contained within…

The two of them continued joking around onstage while the staff finally seized the opportunity to adjust the microphone. Feng Delun lightly tapped it, tested the sound, and then gestured toward the host’s platform.

In a sense, demon beasts were merely animals. They could originally have been used as food, but most demon beasts either ate humans or had eaten humans before. Ordinary people naturally could not accept such a thing, so no one touched demon-beast meat.

Only then did Cang Yuan realize that the black mist had already drifted far away from him. Yet the voices seemed to be coming from them.

Pan Rongfang was a veteran of the Ministry of Finance. Although he had not returned to the ministry after going back to the capital, his former students and associates occupied all the ministry’s key positions. Geng Yi and Lu Yuan were both extremely grateful to have received Wang Peng’s invitation, and they also understood deeply how important this opportunity was—the inheritance of an ancient realm beyond the mortal world.

“Your awakening is complete. Though you have only reached the initial Human Rank, one must not rush such matters. Are you not planning to take part in the World Martial Arts Tournament?” The city lord, Zhan Feng, asked Mo Yan.

“Why is this happening? The classmates you ask about now do not seem to have explained what you can do, but I can understand what my own things mean, and that is enough. You say you are so tired—I feel sorry for you. I am Nong Nong’s two little things. What time do you go every day? What exactly do you want me to ask about?”

Lu Sixia felt a surge of excitement in his heart. He said nothing, merely gripping the old stonemason’s hands tightly.

“Hehe, I don’t really like it here with you, so I’m not going to play with you anymore!” Gu Yu suddenly said with a smile.

After unloading weapons, ammunition, communications equipment, and other strategic supplies at Zunyi Longping Airport, this C-47 military transport plane was loaded with specialty products from southwestern China—high-quality pig bristles, shellac, and other strategic materials needed by the Allied nations—before taking to the sky once more.

“Since this is your choice, then accept the punishment. I will not spare a single member of the Brotherhood!” Gu Yu said coldly. That did not mean he was disappointed in Ye. On the contrary, he valued people like him even more.

“Fine, fine, that’s for the best.” Cao Jiming hurriedly agreed. The pressure eased considerably; refusing would have made him a fool.

Kano sneered disdainfully inwardly. He could not tell how powerful Xue Yun had become, because Xue Yun had completely restrained his aura without revealing the slightest trace of it. On the surface, he looked like an ordinary man without even a hint of martial ability.

“My lord, is everything all right?” Hou Shilu asked worriedly as he looked at Yang Sichang, then spoke softly to Chen Xinjia.

“Who are you?” Huang Yun asked in bewilderment. He had heard of Liu Zhiping. Back when Liu Zhiping’s International Investment Consultancy Group had invested in the Financial and Commercial City project, Huang Yun had also been one of those in charge and had met the man once. What puzzled him was that this unfamiliar acquaintance had actually come to visit him.

With a cold snort, Huo Lingyun turned to glance at Huo Yan. A trace of murderous intent flashed through his eyes. He then led his guards away from the restaurant in disgrace.

The league’s best sixth man was also a phenomenal rookie: Ben Gordon of the Bulls. To come off the bench as a rookie and average fifteen points per game was, in the eyes of many long-established stars, an extraordinary achievement.

Staring at the vast expanse of mysterious crystal ore veins before her, even Ye Ruoli, whose will was as firm as stone, could not help becoming excited.

Within the natural domain, thunder rolled across the sky. Blue lightning suddenly revealed streaks of violet light hidden within it, giving rise to an overwhelming heavenly might and the terrifying power of thunder.

Li Feng did not want to sit back and await death. He issued an order to Purple Bone, and in the next instant, Purple Bone raised its blade and hacked into the zombie mage.

“Don’t you dare! You’re as strong as a calf, and you could easily live another hundred years. You still have to see me wearing my wedding dress.” Bai Qianqian was carrying a tea set when the old man’s words reached her ears. She immediately glared at him and complained.

“Go inside? No. The Standing Committee is holding an emergency meeting in there right now, and the Wuxi Television Station’s filming crew and reporters are inside recording it. You cannot go in.” The bodyguard on the left lowered his voice.

They quietly moved toward one another. Since the situation within Huayin Mountain was unknown and fraught with danger, Chi Ming and the other man first walked around the area at the foot of the mountain, sensing and searching for Zhu Li’s aura. Most likely, Zhu Li was somewhere in the vicinity of Huayin Mountain.

Ever since that heavy rain, the spiritual energy around the artificial lake in the park had grown increasingly abundant. The clearest sign was the extraordinary luxuriance of the aquatic plants in the water. By evening, some newly departed, bewildered souls could even be seen wandering there.

“There are plenty of fun things at my place… You’ll know once you go and have a look, beautiful.” Qi Ming swallowed and continued patiently.

Ming Xin felt vaguely uneasy. He did not know how Kunlun had been able to confirm that the root of the sedge demon lay beneath this Dragon Pool. The mission was proceeding far more smoothly than he had dared hope, yet precisely because it was going so smoothly, the whole thing felt strangely unreal.

When Sui Xin Jin Mu finished speaking, the kagune behind him changed shape, becoming centipede-like. A kagune armor also appeared across his face. This was the state of a half-ghoul.

A faint smile touched Chen Feng’s lips. He reached out and lightly scraped the tip of my nose, then rose and left the room. As soon as he stepped outside, just as I had expected, white mist and scattered points of light gradually emerged around the room, forming a barrier and sealing it off. He had always been so thorough in his preparations.
