Tianmeng replied coolly, “I know,” but then a smile appeared on her face. She had found a dependable captain—and at least he knew how to care about her.

Among the Four Sects of the Xuanmen, the Chan and Jie Sects were at odds. Everyone knew this, and even some ordinary people had heard rumors of it. Within the imperial court, disciples of the two sects were constantly locked in bitter disputes.

Huo Rong gazed at Haotian and pondered for a moment before saying, “Everything in heaven and earth has a cause and an effect. I hope, Your Majesty, that you will conduct yourself wisely from now on.” With that, he headed toward Spiritfire Island in the Eastern Sea.

Two thousand people plunged into the water at once, churning up wave after wave as they gritted their teeth and paddled forward with all their strength.

Yezi watched the scene of her own capture long ago. She remembered the moment her mother had been killed, and those days when she had wandered from place to place scavenging for a living.

Although I had a full schedule again this morning, I am writing five chapters with all my strength today—three this afternoon and two tonight. Please vote with your flowers, and please send rewards.

My mother’s voice choked with emotion, and she could say no more. At that moment, however, I was seized by a profound sense of guilt.

If Huo Rong had not already attained the realm of the Primordial Great Principle Golden Immortal, he would probably have taken up the Divine Sword of the Azure Lotus and cut down every injustice beneath the heavens, restoring clarity and order to the world.

Odin, in particular, had never had much of a presence in the Marvel series. One could even say that he hardly ever appeared, and his strength was not particularly impressive either.

Zhang Jun was accustomed to governing from the lofty heights of the imperial court, seeing matters from a broad perspective, but he did not know how to lead troops. As the saying went, every ruler had his shortcoming and every inch its strength. Everyone had fields with which they were unfamiliar; such things could not be forced.

We came once more to the stone chamber opposite us. It was just as empty as the previous one. Daoist Mo again felt his way along the stone walls, but this time his expression looked somewhat unnatural. I hurriedly asked what was written on them.

A Corpse King—what did that even mean? I remembered Daoist Mo saying that all things could cultivate and all things possessed a nature of their own. If the thing inside the coffin was a Corpse King of profound cultivation, even he might not necessarily be its match. Now that Old Luo claimed there was a Corpse King here, how could I not be terrified?

“If I had dared, your corpse would have gone cold by now.” Han Kun stared coldly at Keluoya.

Keluoya could not help swallowing hard.

“Fighting you would be meaningless. I have heard that your commander is resourceful and highly intelligent, so I have come especially to seek his guidance on the art of war,” Han Xin said.

“In short, the Celestial God Clan uses the pretext of maintaining balance among the Six Realms to exterminate the other races without the slightest remorse.” For some reason, I suddenly thought of how the celestial gods had destroyed the Flower Fairy Clan, and indignation surged through me once again.

Zi Yexun wore white robes and a golden forehead band. He was elegant and graceful. The moment he appeared onstage, the surroundings seemed to darken, as though even the sunlight favored him.

As time passed, this cleansing continued to make Tian Feng’s delicate body tremble incessantly. She grew purer and purer, until she gradually transformed into something immensely powerful.

At this point, everyone understood. Eight feet tall and filled with pride, Xiang Yu led his elite troops in a sudden assault on Xianyang City.

“Sixth Miss, the Old Madam asks you to come in. Cousin Miss has awakened.” Nanny Cai, who was usually stern, suddenly emerged from the inner room and beckoned Feng Lingxi forward.

“How should Du Jinyun be dealt with?” Jiang Kexin felt somewhat distressed whenever she thought of Du Jinyun. After all, that had been a chapter in her own memories—one so deeply engraved that it could hardly be forgotten.

“As long as the president is paying, we certainly have no objections,” a bold employee joked.

“Since all of you esteemed gentlemen have said so, we shall do as you suggest! Minister Li is my teacher, and today I shall host a farewell banquet for him. I hope he will perform his duties well as magistrate of Chencang County. Perhaps one day Lord Li can return to Hanzhong and once again become my right-hand man!” Zhao Chen said, seemingly very reluctant to part with him.

The matter concerning Luo Hengyuan was considered closed within the Lu family, but in the Li family, it had truly become a major affair.

The anonymous method of issuing the wanted notice was very secure, but judging from all the signs, the person who had placed a bounty on Yuan Yeting was hardly mysterious at all.

When Ning Jie saw Ning Ruofan standing naked and completely exposed before everyone, every vein in his eyes bulged with rage. He listened as Ning Ruofan cried out his name again and again, as though she were on the verge of death.

“I—I only agreed to talk to you about dating. Marriage is still too soon…” Bai Momo looked up at Leng Zhi in bewilderment.

“What happened?” Bai Zhufeng asked in surprise. They had all been fine just moments ago, so why was everyone crying now?

At last, amid her terror, Jiang Kexin understood what had happened. “Jinyan, are you all right?” She wanted to help Lu Jinyan, but when she reached out, she realized that she had no idea where to begin.

His background was evident from this completely renovated classroom alone. He was not someone they could afford to provoke.

If the situation were truly serious, then as soon as she left the Life Research Institute, Aldrich would probably notice that she was not home and contact her immediately through her neural-brain terminal.

After Gao Qiuguan narrowly dodged the combo attack in an utterly comical and pitiful manner, he immediately fled toward the deepest part of the factory building, clutching his head like a terrified fugitive.

The final safe zone appeared in City Y. After the enemy’s full squad stormed the building, Numbers One and Four were killed, while Su Yan, left with only a sliver of health, finished off the remaining opponents.

“You are with the Righteous Alliance. It seems this is a trap that was planned long ago. If I am not mistaken, your people have already laid an inescapable net here, haven’t they?” Ou Haochen said coldly, yet there was hardly any panic on his face.

The person clinging to her leg had long since grown into a young man taller than she was, yet at that moment he held on like a devoted hound, refusing to let go. No matter what she said, he would not release her. Su Yan stared at him with an expression that was almost—but not quite—a smile.

Not to mention the dozen or so snipers concealed within the Tang family estate—even a few days earlier, when Chen Haoran had faced Cheng Wu’s fifty special-forces soldiers alone, he had shown not the slightest trace of fear.

I had assumed that Su Wang would not survive much longer. Who could have imagined that he would possess such extraordinary vitality? He had lain in bed for so many years and still had not died.

The resentment and sinister energy that had filled the tunnel for five whole years without dispersing were plundered clean away by Gao Qiuguan, that shameless bandit. Not a trace remained.
