Volume 1, Chapter 22: Future Measures in Place

Xiao Caifu nodded. "It is not just that. I have tried many times to take the baby out." Chu Qing's heartless and cold face flashed before her eyes. Xiao Caifu suddenly felt a chill at her fingertips.

Having suffered such a great loss at home and being confronted at his own doorstep, Wang Huo was seething with rage inside the secret chamber. Once his cultivation reached its perfection, he let out a long howl and immediately unleashed his lethal technique, "Raging Fire Scorching the Heavens," without a hint of mercy.

I took out my phone and pressed that familiar sequence of digits, only to delete them one by one. Yang Youhe, you jerk, I’m just thinking of you, that’s all. I’m just thinking of you. There is no obstacle I cannot overcome.

"Alright, everyone, please be seated!" Chen Dong said, gesturing for Yang Fan and the others to take their places.

"Let her go? I have let her go, but she is always in my mind. How can you expect me to let go? How can I possibly put it down? I cannot," Xiao Yiheng said again, his voice filled with agony.

Before long, another round of war drums sounded. A third troop began to slowly advance toward Linzi City, their shouts and the wailing of horns overwhelming the heavens and the earth.

Although Fang Yuan’s strength was a notch weaker than Fang Ze’s, he faced far fewer lightning strikes than the latter. Furthermore, he was wielding an enchanted sword, so apart from a slight flush on his face, Fang Yuan showed no other reactions. As for vomiting blood, that was entirely out of the question.

Amidst that furious voice, a surge of power tore through the air, condensing into a colossal bronze axe that struck toward the "Yin-Yang Twin Fish Mark." The Sacred Dragon Emperor’s primordial spirit imprint sensed that the "Yin-Yang Twin Fish Mark" posed the greatest threat to him.

After a moment of thought, she decided to continue, intending to speak until he was thoroughly disillusioned. Watching the man in black draw closer, Xiao Caifu marveled at her own rare patience in dealing with this child while desperately trying to weave her lies as convincingly as possible.

Feeling one of its sword qi strands being devoured by Chen Tianfeng, the sea of sword qi grew enraged, splitting into two even thicker strands that slashed toward him.

Nie Wanluo took the opportunity to call He Weiran, indirectly discovering that she was shopping, while her parents were at home preparing a feast because He Weiliang was coming back that afternoon.

Once we left the lounge, Ouyang Xuan immediately informed the leaders of the Hongmen about his plan: to have Dou Zhengguo take control of S City, to allow the S City branch to secede from the Hongmen, and to warn everyone never to make an enemy of Dou Zhengguo again.

Yun Xi had little experience with relationships. Previously, she had only been with Xing Ziyu, and given his personality, he would never show her affection in front of others. Besides, his heart belonged to someone else, making it even less likely he would harbor such feelings for her.

Behind the screen, Ye Yu could not help but grow angry upon hearing this. After all, which blind subordinate in the Heavenly Gate would dare to be so arrogant?

Before long, the homeroom teacher arrived and called Song Zirui to the disciplinary office once again. This time, it was not as simple as before. Previously, he had only been asked to write a "profound" letter of apology, but this time, having committed a more serious offense immediately after the last, he was not only required to write another apology but was also suspended for reflection.

Their figures, pressed closely together, were reflected on the clean, gleaming silver metal door. Mu Yanchen glanced at the shadow before looking down at her.

Li Xuanyi looked at her deeply, wondering if his sharp gaze could pierce through the black veil to see the determined expression on her face.

As he spoke, he shook his head triumphantly, looking every bit like someone who was there to solve all your troubles.

It was mid-afternoon when Grandfather returned, carrying a tattered piece of cloth that had frozen in places and was stained with dark red smudges.

When Xuanyue led his troops over, the orc scouts discovered the human force moving in such large numbers. Immediately, the blaring of horns echoed throughout the camp. Yet, just as Xuanyue had anticipated, all the orcs remained atop the camp walls, clutching various bows and crossbows, showing no intention of charging out.

Spatial stasis, spatial lockdown—these two profound mysteries, along with countless other pieces of information, were things he had long known. At the same time, there was much, much more that he was completely unaware of.

The guard did not recognize what the object was and scanned it skeptically. His mind was preoccupied with why Wang Fen’s "eggs" were so large, and not paying much attention to the star core, he simply checked that it was neither an explosive nor a metal and let him through.

Approaching him, Ling the Third didn't say a word before reaching out and patting down Chen Hao’s body. Judging by the proficiency of his hands, this was not a skill an ordinary person could learn overnight.

"Brother Gu Ran, is this the Ice Spring River that the Vice Sect Master mentioned?" an elderly, thin man asked the middle-aged man in front of him.

Well, I’ve been practicing driving lately and have been quite busy. There’s a lot to do at home as well, so I haven't been able to update regularly.

Yang Ziling’s expression held a hint of arrogance, yet her eyes remained clear and firm.
