45 Awakening

Although this man's life would not be in danger, from this moment on, he was essentially completely ruined, Wan Qi thought as she looked at the limply collapsed man at her feet like a boneless eel.

Tang Zino narrowed his eyes, recalling the information he had previously obtained from the student council president. Following the conclusion of the freshman military training a year ago, there had been a few days of leave. According to the precedent of past years, apart from Xiu Qiqi, none of the others had exhibited any abnormalities.

"Xun'er!" Old General Ling was startled, pulling at Ling Xun's sleeve. Ling Xun's face was slightly pale, his lips pressed into a stubborn, unyielding line, refusing to lower his head. Under Old General Ling's repeated calls, it was only after a long while that he reluctantly bowed his head.

"That's your fault, who told you not to bring me along." Ye Qingcheng let out a soft huff, mischievously slipping her ice-cold hand into his lapel to warm it up.

A flash of shame and anger crossed Song Qinghuan's face; she truly wished she could slap the smile right off Wu Xingyun's face. This damned blind man, why had she come to see him? Didn't he know why?

It was rumored that this was a green-light pass. If she had an urgent matter to see him and anyone tried to stop her, she just needed to show this card directly.

I am writing the grand finale and wrapping things up, so I am experiencing a bit of writer's block and am also rather busy, which is why the updates have been a bit sparse these past few days.

Zhan Tiannie picked her up. Perhaps because he now had some experience, he was not as terrified as before, and instead calmly checked her vital signs.

"You know Luo Deyiyi's third wife. Do you know what distinctive features she had, and whether her relationship with the deceased was good?" Li San asked the bald old man as well.

Only then did she remember Madam Yan saying that a stick of fragrant charcoal was indeed burned beneath the seat to keep her from moving, which was supposedly meant to portend peace and stability.

Just as his right foot was about to step across the threshold, Xiao Yang's eyes narrowed slightly. Directly ahead, an unassuming old man in a white robe was looking him up and down with an amused gaze. When his glance swept over the Scarlet Flame on his shoulder, a trace of hidden disdain flashed across his eyes.

"Grandpa Zhang, where is the Emperor? Do we have to be blocked at the doors just to have an audience with the Emperor? We can't even enter the gates of the Leopard Quarter!" Yang Tinghe rebuked angrily.

"You must be from the Southwest Military Region. I know your Commander-in-Chief, Lan Hailong. We can talk about other matters later; those men of yours are quite heavily injured, how much longer can they hold on?" Zhao Wuji asked.

"Actually, this suggestion is not bad. With Thomas by your side, you will be much safer. I feel like Portland is like a powder keg waiting to explode; something big is bound to happen there sooner or later," the police officer advised Susan.

"Boss, what do you want the Kitetsu for? What use does that thing have?" Medusa looked at Fang Cheng in utter bewilderment; there were very few things from the world of One Piece that Medusa did not know.

Brother—what a noble and great title. To soldiers, brothers were people you could entrust your life to, people who would take a bullet for you, people who would never forsake you for a lifetime.

The Great Peacock Ming Wang opened its eyes, and seeing that the Rakshasa was no longer anywhere in sight, it smiled coldly, let out a long cry, spread its wings, and flew toward the outer sea.

"You! This is impossible, I won't marry you!" With that, Chen Min angrily hung up the phone and sat on the sofa, fuming.

A dozen or so minutes later, under the cover of night, these people quietly came ashore. Working quickly in groups of twos and threes, they dug numerous pits in the beach, buried all the inflatable boats, and packed the sand down firmly. Afterward, they all retreated into the coastal dense forest, while the nuclear submarine had long since dived deep into the ocean and vanished without a trace.

"Then do you know where the powerful cultivators of the ghost realm are located? Why are there no cultivators above the ghostly apparition level in this Fengdu City?" Cang Yun continued to ask.

With that, he began to write. Whenever he encountered a character he did not recognize, Li Lin would specifically ask the political commissar for guidance. Seeing Li Lin's serious expression, Regiment Commander Lin felt a throbbing pain in his temples.

Back at the county town, Chang Gu was gnashing his teeth in hatred. True, there were Eighth Route Army units, but the forces parading under that banner had practically no real manpower to speak of.

She only knew that when she was sobbing in her embrace, she felt very safe, able to cry out freely. She was just like her own biological older sister.

Just as they passed a patch of short, artificially trimmed bushes, a rustling sound echoed through the air.

The atmosphere grew intensely tense due to Ye Xuan's arrogance and audacity. Right at that moment, Sister Hua's cell phone rang.

When he led his troops back to the engagement zone and looked at the corpses left in nothing but their underpants, he gnashed his teeth in hatred, murder in his eyes.

Jiang Hongxia never expected that her second sister, a presence that had always been so unremarkable, could now become so sharp-tongued.

Jiang Jianshe's face flushed alternately red and white. He wanted to say something, but out of deference to Officer Yuan, he could not utter a single word.

Once Ye Qingchen set his mind at ease, he noticed that Ye Xuefan was also taking notes, so he too meticulously began recording the breakthrough process.

The sound of the explosion let the Japanese soldiers know that this was undoubtedly mortar shells. Could something be going wrong in the county town again?

Chen Mohuan could not react immediately to his domineering words, but she said nothing, merely lowering her head deeply.

Having made up his mind, Lu Qingyu began to direct Yumo and Zhu Qingyi to join forces with him to rescue the people.

Song Lingyan frowned, looking somewhat displeased. After all, she had already made exceptions for the brother and sister before her several times today. If Lu Qingyu wanted to push his luck even further, it would truly be unreasonable.

These security guards came in groups of dozens. As soon as they arrived, they didn't even need to resort to violence; they just waited to reap the benefits. It was precisely because of this that the boss hired so many guards, and usually, any disturbances were resolved by themselves.

"Mr. Satan, can you win?" The host, holding a microphone out toward Satan, looked fearfully toward the center of the ring, completely ignoring Cell.

Chen Xuejiao's words were no less than a bomb, directly blowing my mind into a state of dizziness.

Sure enough, after a couple of days, a representative approached Mu Yi. Acting on Black Dragon's orders, Mu Yi gradually and conditionally negotiated with the cultivator representative regarding the "passage fee." After days of bargaining, the two sides finally reached a consensus.

Zhou Yaze sat down on the stone bench beside me, raising an eyebrow with a rather smug expression. "Of course! If I didn't even have this little specialty, how could I be someone's boyfriend?" With that, he took out the water he had prepared from his bag and handed it to me.

Cultivators would undergo trials in the mortal world, entangling themselves in karmic causes and effects. Once their trials were complete, these cultivators would personally cut off these karmic ties, resolve the causes and effects, clear their state of mind, and elevate their mental realm once again, from which point they would devote themselves entirely to cultivation without any further obstructions.

Although Lu Qingyu's injuries looked quite terrifying on the surface, in reality, Muyun's Earth Catastrophe had merely inflicted a series of heavy external wounds on him, without causing any substantial damage.
