Dating both brothers at the same time.

His voice descended from above the Sect Leader, heavy with authority, causing a faint, stinging pain to ripple through the leader's mind.

First, her status was insufficient to become a prince’s consort, and furthermore, her delicate and frail demeanor made her entirely unsuitable for the role of a lady.

"That’s settled then. Tomorrow, let Haozi plan the route, and then we begin the journey. If you feel any discomfort or notice any other symptoms, you must tell me immediately." Lu Shidong reached out and took her hand, speaking with a touch of concern.

Every night, he still dreamt of how his gentle mother was driven to her ruin, step by step, by that father and son of the Shen family.

The pitch-black, blade-like claws swung through the air, emitting a terrifying tearing sound as they lunged toward Zhang Lin.

"You will!" Sun Quan whispered these two words directly, offering no explanation for his conviction.

The attitude of the elders was clearly problematic; at the very least, she had never heard them speak of human land with a friendly tone in the presence of the merfolk.

"Yes, follow me!" Master Jiang led everyone to the side of the first-floor staircase. He crouched down, pried up a square meter of flooring, and a hidden underground passage was revealed before them.

Jin Ning thrust his blade straight at Olson’s face, but Olson chuckled and parried the strike. He could see that Jin Ning’s technique had fallen into disarray.

Borussia Dortmund CEO Hans-Joachim Watzke shook his head slightly while offering his congratulations to Rummenigge on the other side.

As they spoke, Li Yan, Zhang Yunxiu, Zhao Yongjie, and Liu Xiangdong arrived, leading soldiers who were escorting Chen Hu.

By this time, the group of men in black had already closed in. Duan Yi thought to strike back, but the moment he raised his hand, he was swarmed by a dozen men and pinned firmly to the ground.

Lawrence was the one who held the deepest grudge against the Holy See; the conflict between the vampires and the Church was long-standing. The primary reason the vampires had retreated from the world was the suppression they faced from the Church.

He did not need actual evidence; he only needed to pin this disgrace on Annie.

Across the desolate landscape, bursts of fire erupted from time to time, leaving massive craters in the ground and shattering the solid rock into deep fissures.

Perhaps... the sudden arrival of the Great Witch Black Dragon at the Zhaoge Imperial City—or rather, its appearance as if offering itself up just for King Zhou to show off—was due to the invisible karmic connection that had come into play between the King and the beast.

The journey was uneventful, but by the time Chi Jingzi returned to Zhaoge, the Ten-Fold Array was largely complete, and the entire imperial city was choked with black energy, impassable to both man and ghost.

However, although these flames were towering, they possessed not a shred of heat; they were, in fact, soul-fire.

With his painting skills having significantly improved, it did not take Xia You long to complete an illustration—roughly ten to twenty minutes sufficed.

Beyond the sports car he had just viewed, the system contained many other models more advanced than any on Earth. Yet, after seeing that first one, Li Lin felt that the others were lacking something, leaving him dissatisfied. With a hint of lingering resentment, he left the "sports car dealership."

A raging fire broke out, fed by flammable firewood and tung oil, plunging the entire prefecture into a sea of flames. The originally dark sky was dyed a deep red. Before the Turkic soldiers could even enter the city, they were forced to retreat toward the outskirts as the inferno erupted.

Was Hou Junji afraid of death? If he truly feared it, he would not have reached this point. But this kind of meaningless death was simply unacceptable.

He Yi-kong, the fifth brother, glanced toward the distant Xuejiajie and softly articulated this second possibility.

This meant that if she were to return to five minutes ago, Yin Tong would not have lost his arm.

The opposition, however, was struck by misfortune. They were so focused on firing toward the source of the sound that they neglected to consider whether their own comrades were in their line of fire, and thus, the tragedy unfolded.

As the humanoid forms fully solidified, their appearances became clearly recognizable. Were they not the three members of the He family who had just dissipated in the flames?

Inside the imperial palace, Fang Mingye emerged dressed in plain clothes. Ying Baihua followed closely behind him; no trace of worry could be seen on her face, only a sense of relief.

The rain of blades was not powerful enough to clip the wings of the demon-savages, nor could it injure their eyes, rendering the attack ineffective.

Furthermore, Kanti is currently at our base. We took her away because we were concerned you might seize the opportunity to attack us; having her in our hands provides at least an extra layer of security.

However, the request was refused by Sun Zhou’s uncle, who insisted the boy needed to be tempered and should start as a guard. Naturally, no one else dared to object.

"Has Hantongji's influence in Manila grown this great? You can fall into a trap just by buying mineral water," Tamiji said, his expression grim.

"Oh, I—I'm sorry, Doctor Tang. I—I was just so scared, I'm sorry." Tang Manhong looked at Tang Ye and apologized, her sincerity evident, though her eyes still held traces of panic.

Back on Earth, he remembered that Kangxi had taken the throne before the age of ten. Li Zhiyuan thought to himself that since his own genes were excellent and Princess Huashao was also a cultivator—and a brilliant one at that—their son would surely be exceptional. He trusted the boy would grow up to be a wise young monarch.

"Giggle... what kind of service are you looking for?" the Red Powder Enchantress laughed, her smile alluringly provocative.

The Black Cat and the man known as Hua were at their wits' end, unsure how to command or how to face the enemy, let alone how to handle the reappearance of the master of those cold, piercing eyes.
