34. Hatred and Delusion

However, An Yueming’s reaction was always indifferent; he even suddenly announced he was going to make a phone call, and the person on the other end turned out to be Jiang Ning.

In reality, he held no grudge whatsoever. He was merely restrained by the fact that Ouyang Sheng was a guardian of the Mountain God Temple and a master-level powerhouse; he simply did not want to create bad blood with him.

Shi Wei did not beat around the bush. She had never been involved in this circle before, nor did she have the channels to experience auctions.

Her mother was merely an ordinary supermarket employee with a meager monthly salary, providing her with only one thousand yuan for living expenses each month.

The blood that flowed out stained the accumulated snow, adding several vivid streaks of color to this desolate, frozen landscape.

Still, there was a fair chance of success. As long as she mobilized her inner spiritual energy to complement her physical strength, the possibility of catching it was quite high.

Lin Qingran had just composed herself when she turned to see this scene, feeling so embarrassed she wished the ground would swallow her up.

Chancellor Zhang, who had just lost his right-hand man, Minister Liu, was already being questioned by his own people. At this juncture, he had to protect Zhu Ling at all costs. Since the matter had nothing to do with him, his decision to speak up for Zhu Ling at such a moment inevitably invited suspicion.

The two seemed to hit it off remarkably well. Despite the significant age gap, Mu Yanqiao could keep up with everything Duan Canglan said, as if they were long-lost soulmates who shared a common language.

The Ye sisters had already left; they were not employees of the company, so they were free to go when they had nothing to do.

However, this transit hub revealed a cruel truth to Feng Yu: the military strength of "no" in the New American Star System was not as insignificant as AA-ker had previously observed, but far greater—so powerful that it could potentially overturn the UAC government’s control over its home territory.

If Situ Hui had come to exchange views with Feng Yu in a friendly manner back then, then these two were clearly here to apply pressure.

"I believe the end of your question should have been, 'Why not end this damn war right now!!!', shouldn't it, Alice?" Gu Lun Gaste turned around and asked, facing the furious Alice.

With the safety issue resolved, the next step was to utilize the remaining one hundred thousand or so merit points to increase his strength. First was the general's rank, which was the foundation of everything and naturally took priority, followed by skills and equipment.

In the distance, a burly man stood with a look of encouragement and instigation, while another tall, thin man with a baby face stood nervously, holding a bouquet of delicate roses obtained from who knows where.

Wu Feng hurriedly bowed to the Second Senior Sister again. As the saying goes, one does not strike a smiling face. As long as his attitude was good, the nature of the incident shouldn't be as severe as Han Lin had described.

Among Marvel heroes, there is a saying: the rich rely on technology, the poor rely on mutation. While this does not encompass every Marvel hero, it basically covers eighty percent of them.

Clearing his thoughts, You Kuang gradually calmed down. Instead of rushing back to the sand, he continuously channeled his martial aura, pacing through the void as if walking on solid ground.

His body was now free. Ye Fan moved his limbs and discovered that the terrifying pressure from before had vanished. This was not because he had mastered the Sword Body, but because the pressure had simply dissipated.

Black shadows seeped out from the body of the man in white like smoke, passing through the back of the sofa and coalescing behind him. As if being pulled by those shadows to manifest, black iron chains began to entwine the body of the man in white.

Xuan Yuanche’s gaze swept over the shy face of the Fifth Lady and the bright-eyed, adoring expression of the Tenth Lady, and he merely nodded with a smile.

It was difficult enough to see off one "great Buddha," and now another had arrived. It seemed this matter needed to be handled with haste.

Ye Nan took a deep breath and said to Tian Twenty, "Again. I refuse to believe this." As soon as he finished speaking, Ye Nan lunged toward Tian Twenty and landed a straightforward punch right on his chest.

Eden Hudson and Catherine Bell also stood nearby. Catherine Bell’s face was filled with a blissful smile, and the gentle lines of Eden Hudson’s face became the most beautiful moment of the night.

Mu Shiyi’s body flew up three feet into the air in response, crashing heavily to the ground. He curled his body on the floor, clutching his wound with both hands and rolling about. The pain he was enduring was imaginable.

Under such circumstances, Jill-Jacob attempting to stir up some news to draw back attention was well within expectations.

Lu Mingxuan said: This celestial artifact chose its own position. It will likely remain there until you can fully control it.

He did not understand why things were that way. Later, when he was a bit more sensible, he realized that doing such things only caused trouble for the adults and led to a beating, without ever attracting the desired attention, so Wei Chi stopped doing it.

This resulted in the spiritual energy within her dantian flowing extremely smoothly and feeling somewhat unrestrained. Although she felt her time at the late stage of Light Opening had been rather short, Chu Yunxi still decided to go into seclusion to make a breakthrough toward the Great Perfection of the Light Opening stage.
