060 The Humidity Gives It Away
Cao Xinglin’s body went rigid. He didn’t want to look at the hand, and the half-exposed forearm, stretching out from beneath the bed in the room. Yet with his body frozen, he had lost all control over himself. His eyes were wide open, fixed unblinkingly on that arm, that hand.
She was not yet fully grown, but already displayed such beauty; when she matured, she would be another unparalleled beauty like Yu He.
At the critical moment, Shalu teleported to his side, brushing the energy blast away with a single hand. With a trace of helplessness, he offered a word of warning.
Copying out Buddhist scriptures, Lu Wan-jun looked up at the two who had just challenged her, the corners of her lips lifting in a faint, half-hidden smile.
After years of studying abroad, Gu Xiao broke from his usual routine for the first time. It was as if his life had veered off its set path—he was experiencing true university life for the first time, making friends of different races and nationalities, and finally seeing a world beyond his studies.
With Mi Yin’s help, after collecting everyone’s test papers, Hui Ye Xiu returned alone to the office.
“You want to take Yiluo to the South Sea? But don’t the Shark Tribe dislike outsiders?” Upon hearing this plan, Bi Fang let out a shocked cry.
John, who had been waiting for Zhou Cun’s next question, couldn’t help but let out a miserable howl.
Lu Wan-jun took her leave; now that she had obtained what she wanted, there was no need to remain.
In the backyard, Zhang Qingyun split himself into two avatars, sending one to the front yard and keeping one at the back to guard. He sat cross-legged and cast his hook into the basin.
He wanted to say something, but before He Zisheng could speak, Zhao Tiannian pulled her and leapt down. At the same time, Zhao Fatty carried He Xinyu on his back and jumped as well.
Amid furious online debates, Luo Hexi understood that this had to be the work of some supernatural force. After all, would the police really have nothing better to do than invent a disappearing town just to mess with people?
“Hmph, the Chu army has now conquered the kingdom of Li, the world is in chaos, and we only want to survive. Aren’t you here to seize supplies too?” The constable sneered coldly.
Through such a tactic, the two of them managed to deceive the guards and obtained the so-called travel pass. What followed was the routine, uneventful procurement of jewelry.
But now, they could only struggle desperately in such dire circumstances, living each day in fear and trepidation.
“So cool! He’s our age, you know. If only I could be as awesome as him!” A guy exclaimed to his colleagues.
She rolled her eyes at him and, without hesitation, sat down in the empty seat beside Yuna.
Lu Chen was surprised. Were the Xiongnu planning a comeback? Budugen’s defeat failed to tie down the Southern Xiongnu, which allowed the northern and southern tribes to unite. With no reinforcements from Budugen, Helian could only hold out for two months before being forced to retreat.
They had deliberately set some mannequins behind others, leaving only one with a bullet hole.
This wasn’t one of those famous city schools. In this godforsaken place, most students were the children of farmers or state workers. For instance, “Abs Guy” came from a powerful and wealthy class, and even now, he had no trouble attracting girls—unlike in certain worlds, where ordinary people would have to resolve early on to follow a policy of marrying young and having many children.
Lacus finally breathed a sigh of relief and followed a girl in green toward the exit, but kept glancing back, concern clouding her eyes as she watched Kamiyu, until she disappeared beyond the hatch.
Chen Tian felt that this trial space was completely unreliable. That the Demon Clan could make use of it clearly made it a dud; it was hardly surprising the place had collapsed.
Perhaps Huang Shuping didn’t know Chen Ping well yet, but Zhang Yanhua and Gao Jianhong certainly did. As a leader, Chen Ping never spoke thoughtlessly—whatever he mentioned, he could accomplish. It was because Chen Ping always followed through on his words that Zhang Yanhua and Gao Jianhong held him in such high regard.
With a great sweep of his hand, Wang An struck at Tang Ling as if fanning a cattail leaf. Yet Tang Ling seemed unfazed, and the dagger in her hand drew a circle, a faint new power quietly taking shape.
Mental energy is intangible, but as it becomes more substantial, it can begin to affect physical objects: attacking people with the mind, lifting a teacup to drink, or even constructing an invisible path above a wide river for someone to walk across.
The massive body of the nine-headed dragon still loomed before their eyes. It coiled not far away, its nine heads raised to the sky, taking deep breaths, an expression of rapture on each face.
Unbeknownst to them, seven days had already passed. With only three days left before the deadline set by Bogtunev, time was running short.
“Didn’t you realize I was only pretending earlier to encourage Xianyi?” Yun Xuan said with a bitter smile.
In the blink of an eye, another fifteen days passed. Chen Tian gave the Wolf King’s Qiankun Pill to the giant guardian Pabu. With Chen Tian’s help, Pabu just barely managed to fuse with the pill, reaching the strength of a Martial God. Given his superior physique, even any of the Four Great Martial Gods would find him a formidable opponent.
In this round of rapid fire, more than eight shells struck the Blenheim-class armored cruiser directly. Billowing black explosions erupted across the bridge, and the 150mm sloped armor belt along the side was repeatedly hit. Though the clever angling of the armor was meant to deflect shells, this time it could do nothing to save the Blenheim from her fate.
Kili was sweating profusely. She never expected such a violent reaction from Yggdrasil. The branches attacked from all directions, like snakes, slipping through every gap—and these were thick, terrifying branches, as if some monstrous plant had come alive.
Lan Yiyi’s face showed not the slightest trace of fear. She didn’t believe for a second that Tian Canghai would actually dare kill them. Even leaving aside the retaliation of the Qionghua Society, there was still Wei Ling’s gang to answer to, and Tienhai’s group would never let it go.
The bosses of several prison blocks had already seen through Malda—he was nothing but a fraud. Having wasted their time, they now hated him with a vengeance.
