24 Quiet

"Then why don't you ask Xi'er now if she is willing for you to join us?" Qin Zijun pointedly refused to give him any face.

In truth, given his temperament, he should have shaken the child off the moment he grabbed his arm. Yet, for reasons unknown, he felt a flicker of something akin to "soft-heartedness" when facing this boy.

"Fine, consider it done. I can have plenty of people help you search for the medicinal herbs you need." Yang Yu was now willing to agree to anything; as long as she could suppress the agony within her, she would never again endure the living hell she had experienced before.

The old man stepped forward, his words a constant stream of reprimand, each sentence laden with national righteousness. His eyes, fixed upon Lu Feng, seemed filled with judgment.

"Get out." Ye Weiyang’s lips parted slightly, and the overwhelming aura of a superior surged forth.

To reopen the space-time rift and pull a player's soul across using manifested psychic energy, one would likely need to reach at least the Iron-attribute level, or perhaps the even higher Diamond-attribute level.

Adeguite looked puzzled, but Alie’s expression was extremely grave. Guan Yi even noticed Alie subtly preparing to hide Adeguite.

Moreover, Guan Yi’s priority was to keep this matter in his own hands until he fully understood the methods of Source Cultivation. Even if state intervention became necessary, he did not want to report it through Qiu Lan’s channels. He could approach Elder Mu or Shu Yuankun instead.

Nothing Elder Nian or Elder Chen said could convince Xiu Changkong. It was obvious these two had conspired long ago and were waiting here specifically for him.

Beitang Yexuan followed the direction of Han Yueqiao’s finger and looked over. Sure enough, there was a multi-colored flower. Although the valley was filled with a vast variety of flowers, that seemed to be the only one of its kind.

Just moments ago, these Kunlun disciples had been blinded by hot-headedness and the fires of hatred after seeing Lietian killed, which was why they had recklessly rushed forward to confront Jiang Yi.

She shook her head violently, finding it ridiculous. Why, even in the middle of a sentence, would she think of the man who had caused her injury?

Once the words left her lips, the entire garden fell into a deathly silence. Bizhu gazed at Lin Hanxi’s retreating figure, her eyes full of astonishment. She had never seen the Princess like this—so imposing and resolute—that she was unsure whether to step forward to assist her or continue following silently behind.

Yet, the memory of her tenderly holding a towel to wipe Lin Kai’s sweat caused a wave of warmth to surge back, only for her boiling heart to suddenly cool and solidify like ice.

"What? Say it again, I didn't hear you." Yang Lefan only heard a buzzing sound; he couldn't make out a single word of what Ping Erzhi had said.

Li Daniu stared with wide, round eyes, glancing back and forth between Mu Hongling on the bed and the Mu Hongling crouching beside it.

"Feiyu, what exactly are you trying to do?" Luo Xi did not know Qingfeng’s intentions and worried he might harm the Empress Dowager and the others.

"It’s time for us to go back. Tiantian, you are now the master of this palace. Open the Gate of the Tiger Soul and teleport us out," Li Daniu said with a smile.

"Why the rush?" Xuanyuan Tingye let go of the hand he had been holding and asked earnestly. Intuition told him that Yao Di was acting strangely today, and he found himself curious about what was really going on.

Not only that, but Xishabuke could clearly feel a peculiar power contained within the tattoo on his forehead.

Every organization, given enough time, will inevitably breed parasites; there is no way to prevent it entirely. However, this at least ensured that no major problems would arise within the Church of Reisamboli.

Time can erase all traces of existence. No matter if you claim to be eternal or immortal, under the influence of time, everything will eventually fade into nothingness.

Having firmly determined his own pursuits, Ling Feng felt little emotion this time. Perhaps having visited Icebound City twice already, its prosperity no longer surprised him. Following the address provided by his family, Ling Feng headed straight toward the South City.

"From now on, all command operations for Future Star will be handled by me personally. You just need to assist, Commander," Zhenzhen suddenly shifted the tone of the conversation.

"That depends on your talent. My ship has no spare room," Zou Chuan smiled slightly.

The first wave of petitioners to rush forward were ordinary ones. The Savage God Wushijia did not expect them to wipe out the Reisamboli divine legion, but even a little attrition would be beneficial. The two hundred thousand beast-form petitioners lurking in the woods were the true main force intended to deal with the Reisamboli legion.

Shar’s avatar, while rapidly closing in on Karando’s position, pressed all her divine power back into her divine core, preparing to use the explosive force of her avatar’s self-destruction to deal a devastating blow to Karando.

This thought manifested with absolute clarity in her mind, encompassing everything and occupying her entire soul, leaving her unable to care about anything else.

After exiting the gates of Xuanwu Lake, Liu Xiaoyu hailed a taxi. "Zhenzhiwei" was quite famous in Nanjing, and the driver nodded immediately upon hearing the general location.

"Retreat..." Watching the dazzling, intense light blooming below, the onlookers’ expressions changed. Amidst cries of alarm, they fled in all directions—not away into the distance, but, as if by telepathic consensus, straight up into the high air.

With a violent tremor, everyone on Naxxramas felt unsteady. Only Tony fell to the ground in a pathetic heap, which left him feeling quite embarrassed.

Ghouls rushed at her one after another, forcing her to barely hold them off, preventing the monsters from touching her while she slowly disintegrated their bodies.

The butler agreed, gave some instructions to Sister Wang, and then walked out of the house with Liu Qiaopu. To reach the burned ruins, they had to circle around the entire main building. Originally, one could see the side wing from the sky bridge on the Blue Tower, but since the fire, it was no longer visible.

Although I may not have the ability to do it right now, I will work hard. Sooner or later, I will fulfill the words I have spoken today.

Yet, what girl does not hope for a beautiful, earth-shattering love like that? A person like me is no exception.
