Volume 1, Chapter 42: Catching up so soon?

(1/3)
A dozen lackeys had chased him for nearly a hundred meters from the very beginning. Along the way, petty thugs wailed endlessly, scaring drivers so much that none dared to step out of their vehicles.
With everything wrapped up and the battle finished, a group of police officers rushed out from the intersection. They were precisely the officers from the Xishan Sub-bureau, and Yu Haifeng happened to be among them.
Dozens of people surged forward in a flurry.
"Captain Yu, over here!" Lin Lin shouted loudly.
Yu Haifeng looked closely and was shocked to see that it was actually Lin Lin.
He led his men over and asked, "Lin Lin, didn't you go back to the station to retrieve something? Why are you here?"
"These people came to take revenge on me. First, they tried to run me over with a car, and then they sent this gang of swordsmen to finish me off."
Everyone was stunned. Wang...
Xue Bao'er was somewhat hysterical. Her most treasured magical artifact had been destroyed, and right now, all she wanted to do was kill Bai Mu.
"Your Highness, it's terrible!" a panicked attendant rushed in from outside. "The city of Ping'ao was raided by Chu Yi's army in the early hours of this morning. Right now, the entire city of Ping'ao has fallen into the hands of Chu Yi's army."
"Alright, this hall is only so big. We've searched everywhere, and there are no secret mechanisms," Feng Yun said, still looking at Tian Qi.
Chu Qi was Zhenxing's martial arts master, while Chu Jiu, Shiyi, and Shiwu served as his sparring partners. Occasionally, Daya would also take on the role of a sparring partner, with the sole purpose of testing Zhenxing's true proficiency. She worried that Chu Jiu and the others might hold back and find it hard to go all out against Zhenxing, ultimately cultivating a master who existed in name only.
"Second Highness, what brings you here?" Liu Mingzhu supported her waist with her hand and walked over with slow, shuffling steps. Now six months pregnant, her movements were sluggish, swaying from side to side like a duck.
A single sentence plunged Chairman Song heavily into the abyss of terror. At this moment, he could only pray that the two children would remain safe and sound.
Upon arriving at the Great Chen Dynasty, she finally understood the true meaning of emptiness, loneliness, and chill. Every day consisted solely of riding horses, traveling, eating, and sleeping, with nothing else to do. Initially, she thought Qiao Sili would treat her like a servant girl, but ever since she revealed her identity as his cousin, his attitude seemed to shift somewhat, as if he truly no longer intended to treat her merely as a cousin.
Daya felt a pang of sourness in her heart, accompanied by deep emotion. This son was not raised in vain; he had a conscience and a good heart.
The next second, Tian Qi's gaze suddenly became as bright as rain-washed clouds parting, reflecting Bai Mu's figure in his pupils.

Shen Yuechen merely gave a soft acknowledgment and lowered her head again to flip through the gift registry. Chunming could do nothing with her and quietly retreated on tiptoe.
Ji Muyi clearly still wanted to say something, but Yu Yichen produced an unknown object from somewhere and placed it into her palm.
As for the Dragon-Taming Arhat and the others entering the formation, they would no longer speak of Buddhist mercy. Wielding Zen staves and long cudgels, every single strike was guaranteed to blast dozens of living beings to smithereens.
No matter how frantically it thrashed and pounced, it simply could not break out of that radius of a few dozen meters; it could neither ascend to the sky nor burrow into the earth.
She quickly performed the blood-recognition ritual for ownership, discovering the usage method and spatial capacity of the storage ring.
What they did not know, however, was that on the other side, Su Yuan was similarly harvesting the ghosts of stragglers.
A succession of booming impacts echoed continuously, and the terrifying shockwaves spread outward, causing everything in the vicinity to be violently obliterated.
Although Uchiha Yuhas the Sharingan, copying the Eight Trigrams Air Palm in such a short span of time was...
After a few moments of thought, Tang Sanzang picked up an axe lying near a nearby house and threw it directly into the Abortion Spring.
Now that he had fused with the Chaos Bead and his strength had grown stronger once more, there should be no problem at all.
Alloy-grade 4 bullets dealt with these 4-star avian monsters effortlessly, especially when hitting them right in the eyes.
Within the ancestral land, the desert was swept by yellow sands and flying gravel. The entire desert seemed draped in a layer of yellow cloth, making it difficult for anyone to discern its true appearance.
At this moment, the two factions stood at daggers drawn, on the verge of physical conflict. The leader of the opposing side was none other than the man who had previously reprimarded Su Wanqing. Named Long Jin, he was one of Long Lie's trusted confidants.
Seeing that the Foundation Establishment elders were able to sit down and talk things through slowly, all the Qi Condensation disciples collectively let out a huge sigh of relief.
The scarred man shouted loudly, then boarded the fat old man's "flying gauze" along with the other three. After circling around for a bit, the thin gauze carrying the four people and one demon shot straight into the sky with a "swoop," flying rapidly toward the top of the crimson stone pillar in full view of everyone.
Seeing his wife's perplexed and bewildered expression, Luo Jizong felt a deep sense of disappointment in his heart. He had never expected that even his own wife would not believe this mediation was genuine. It seemed that if Lin Zi hadn't stepped in to resolve this vat-collapse accident this time, he truly would have found it difficult to escape disaster.
However, the Azure-Scaled Tiger Shark had no time to consider such matters right now; it had to withstand Fang Xun's fists head-on.

Hearing this, Long Ya lowered his gaze in deep thought, his mind spinning at lightning speed. At a certain moment, Long Ya's heart experienced a jolt as he conceived a notion that seemed to him the most improbable, yet—given the emperor's grand ambitions and brilliant strategies—also the most plausible.
The Spirit-Locking Spell was actually a rather mediocre and impractical technique. Not only did one have to engage in close combat with the adversary to cast it, but one's own cultivation level also had to be higher than or equal to the opponent's.
How could they have anticipated that the epidemic in the northern capital would not require medicinal herbs, but rather the grain of the southern provinces?
"Uh... Lord Kelly, how long has it been since you communicated with anyone outside the southwestern battlefield?" Rollins asked curiously.
Song Yuzhu, can you see this? The murderer who killed you has been killed in return by me; you should be quite pleased, shouldn't you?
His words weren't entirely false either. If a spiritual master broke through the Saint-Sealing realm to reach the Spirit Sovereign realm, they could indeed move mountains, fill seas, and alter the heavens and earth. However, Ximen Jing was still a hundred thousand miles away from that level; anyway, bragging didn't incur taxes, so one might as well boast to the heart's content.
In the end, Guan Xintong naturally did not let him finish all that fried rice. Having already overslept, Luo En simply acted shamelessly and skipped school for the entire morning. This delighted Su Rui to no end, as she pulled Luo En over and took another round of crazy photos.
Bai瑾 raised her head and looked in surprise at Beiming Xie. This man... Bai瑾 narrowed her eyes, gazing at that exquisite profile, and could not help curling the corners of her lips slightly.
"Dr. Lin, I am deeply sorry. It was my failure to explain things clearly... Rest assured, no one will ever interfere with your treatment again. I give you my guarantee!" Although the dean had been informed by Jinshui that the call was on speaker, he still spoke with extreme courtesy.
This fellow smoked one cigarette after another until the room was filled with haze. I could perceive the anxiety in his eyes; perhaps the driver's death was still unresolved, and now two sets of skeletons had been unearthed, so his worry was entirely understandable.
Plop! With another muffled sound, Ding You did not waste words and pulled the trigger directly, firing a shot at Qi Hao. To his surprise, the moment he raised his hand, Qi Hao anticipated the trajectory, lunged and rolled fiercely toward Wen Nan's side, dodging the attack completely while using Wen Nan as a human shield in front of him.
The ghost child, whose movements had been sluggish just a moment ago, suddenly accelerated and lunged forward like a monkey, its dark hands clamping onto the necks of both individuals respectively.
As Siyu spoke, she became somewhat unstoppable, genuinely terrified that Zhou Jinwu's future prospects might encounter some mishap.
As soon as Luffy finished speaking, eight security guards rushed forward, and an anti-riot baton smashed toward Luffy's head.
"Then what should I do? It's not very realistic for me to walk back barefooted." The water droplets dripping from Yan Qi's skirt instantly soiled the feet she had just finished wiping.
