Volume 1, Chapter 25: You've been in a relationship? How come I didn't know?

The Shen residence.
Wang Han, Shen’s mother, slammed the phone down, clearly incensed.
She had never liked Lin Yuxia; that had been the case for many years.
Back when Lin Yuxia was sent abroad, Wang Han had been one of the forces working behind the scenes to make it happen.

Feeling something silky in her hand, Sayaka Kirasaka glanced down. It was a pair of stockings, as pure white as new. A blush crept across her face; she hurriedly pulled at her collar and tucked the stockings against her chest.

He gradually came to accept the explanation provided by Wang Zhangpeiyuan, that the regular army was essentially a "General Staff-controlled recruit training camp."

Chen Lie’s flashlight swayed back and forth with his movements, making it difficult to see what lay ahead.

"What is this?" A cold aura formed a protective layer about a yard in diameter. The golden beetles, unable to dodge in time, fell to the ground like rain, and in an instant, the earth looked as if it had been dusted with gold powder.

His expression was fundamentally different from the simple look he had worn before. The Star Puppet Threads—this was his signature move, his most powerful secret technique. In theory, no one could destroy them. Before they hit, one might be safe, but once struck, unless one were a god transcending the dimensions of life, every existence would become a puppet to his Minos.

The Ice Profound Spirit Flood Dragon roared in fury. With a single beat of its wings, its massive body shot forward like a meteor, slamming headlong into the Earth-Core Flame Dragon Lizard. The physical bodies of Heavenly-tier spirit beasts were incredibly formidable; this lethal flesh was their most fearsome weapon.

In the next instant, he vanished from the Scripture Repository. When he reappeared, he was hovering high above a desolate mountain range.

During the final years of the Age of Gods, parallel worlds began to proliferate. To a large extent, this was due to Alaya strengthening itself and forcibly interfering with major human events, creating massive causal changes that led to the constant emergence of new parallel worlds.

Clutching his still-dripping sword, Zhou Gu screamed hysterically. With even the thousand-man commanders being slaughtered so casually, who would dare utter a single word of "retreat"? Driven by desperation, they surged forward, brandishing their weapons against the overwhelming sea of the Mu Song army, clawing for any sliver of hope for survival.

The campaign to annihilate Zhao saw three armies advancing in unison. While the Black Armored Cavalry was the smallest in number, by the time Wang Jian was still maneuvering against Li Mu at Hangu Pass, the main force led by Meng Wu and the Black Armored Cavalry had arrived simultaneously at the gates of Handan.

*Thump.* The man named Jia had only knocked once when the guest room door opened from within, revealing the smiling face of Jin Chanzi.

He couldn't help but feel a surge of intense curiosity: what exactly did the video mean by "you will receive what you desire"? Was it this advanced technology? Or was it something else entirely strange and bizarre?

"I refuse to believe it. Could it be that the daughters of my Zhen family are truly no match for that girl from the Mi family?"

"I fear I lack the qualifications to be a teacher to one born with a Lightning Body," the old man sighed softly.

The seat of honor in the center, which had always been reserved for Magistrate Kou, had been yielded this time to Jin Chanzi, Jiang Liu.

The group reached a quick consensus, and a weight finally lifted from Yang Bufan’s heart. He had never felt such joy when he was with them during the campus sports meets in the past. Especially after learning about Wang Xinyu, Yang Bufan felt that his future gaming life in the countryside would become even more colorful and vibrant.

"Sir, such explosive materials must be kept hidden with the utmost caution," Jia Xu said in a voice bordering on reverence.

The man with the crew cut was quite agile; with a push of his hands and a twist of his body, he dodged and circled around to the back.

This wave of battle no longer required the players to fight for their lives; Yang Bufan had already devised a plan. Beyond wiping out the Undead Legion, today’s goal was to show those arrogant players that on the battlefield, failing to follow orders meant death.
