Volume 1, Chapter 42: Having a Meal with Her for the First Time

Back then, Huo Beixiao was not much older than Murong An, and since boys mature later, he still looked somewhat gender-neutral.

The Imperial Noble Consort died after enduring brutal tortures, and her entire maternal family was executed. Of course, the official public narrative was that her family had plotted treason.

As soon as the words fell, Jun Yinuo made her move directly, flashing forward with the momentum of a shattering wind to charge at the Master of the Thousand Poisons Sect without a moment's hesitation.

Of course, of course... Xia Yuxue rejoiced inwardly. Does this mean Han Bing is now completely single? Thinking of Han Bing's handsome and mature face, Xia Yuxue's heart fluttered wildly.

The man's words lingered in her ears, and his logical reasoning left her with truly no reason to refuse at this moment.

"I need to reflect, I need to review myself, I trusted him far too much," Li Jianguo said with lingering resentment.

Who says he doesn't know how to give gifts or create surprises? This time he would definitely shatter that prejudice.

Moreover, his biological brother was the current President. Even if much of the military intelligence was classified, at a critical moment, his brother would resort to desperate measures and bring it out to absolve Gong Jue.

At that moment, from behind a pillar outside the hospital entrance, a middle-aged man emerged. Wearing a pair of dark sunglasses and holding a cell phone, his head turned toward the direction where Xia Nuanxin had left.

And I only need to choose to leap into that timeline where I was not shot, and I will not be killed.

When Su An walked to the exact top of the South City Gate, Ouyang He and the commanding general Ouyang Bing had already arrived below the city gate.

When it was still half a finger's breadth away from her, the blade abruptly changed direction, slashing toward the outer edge. With a loud 'bang', a corner of the carriage roof was sliced clean off, and the cold wind poured straight into the carriage through the severed gap.

Watching the earthy-gray layer gradually fade from Ji Ya's body and slowly reveal the golden hue beneath, my gaze was somewhat complicated, mixed with sighs and emotional reflections. Inadvertently, I had actually helped her complete her transformation. From now on, was she truly going to evolve into a divine dragon?

No unauthorized persons were allowed in the backyard of the Jinchun Pavilion. Xia Que had dispatched guards to secure the area, but the two hefty men tasked with carrying Xue Xiuyun inside were only responsible for guarding the backyard and knew nothing of what had happened out front.

On one hand, they were individuals possessing extraordinary skills and unwilling to be tamowed; on the other hand, this was a distorted vent of that agonizing grief felt by these tough men who seemed devoid of tear ducts, mourning their deceased eldest brother.

Ji Lie was not particularly outstanding in appearance, but his ability to read people and gauge expressions was top-tier; otherwise, he would never have attained a fourth-rank official position. If the Chief Eunuch told him not to marry that Yu Xianglian, and he dared to disobey, by tomorrow, his post as the Imperial Censor would likely be given to someone else, and his future would be utterly unpredictable.

What on earth had Zhang Muyi slipped into Xueqi's mind to make her suddenly so close to him?

In Tang Yun's ears was the howling wind rushing through the ventilation system; before his eyes was a young woman in a flowing white dress fluttering in the wind, making her look all the more ethereal and pure; beneath his feet were the chaotic shadows cast by the illumination equipment in the passageway.

After negotiating a consensus, the two sides immediately dispersed to act separately, and Long Xinglou also took Jing Yao and several others along to assist.

As the distance continuously closed and the battle fleets met, the two armies also began engaging in a true head-on clash. Boarding planks were continuously thrown across, and the clash was poised to erupt at any second.

Not daring to hesitate, the attendant hurriedly knocked on the doors one by one, waking everyone up. Long rushed out to the truck immediately to rendezvous with Ahao.

The young girl was watching with rapt attention, and upon hearing her father's exclamation, she felt somewhat bewildered. Looking closely at the situation on the field, she didn't feel anything was amiss. However, she quickly understood as well.

Yang Chen and other core disciples and elders of the Sword-Wielding Sect all arrived before the mountain-guarding formation, continuously gathering their own strength to assault and slaughter the Demon Clan's Eighth Legion.

The crowd gathered below the stage watched Yun Hao and Mu Wan'er acting all lovey-dovey and couldn't help feeling a mixture of envy, jealousy, and resentment. After all, who told Yun Hao to idly toss out couple-shaming dog food for no good reason?

"If you don't come out, don't ever come out again!" Su Jinxuan threatened angrily.

Taixuan listened to their discussion, smiling outwardly while shaking his head inwardly. He was firmly convinced that sarira relics truly existed in the world, and they indeed contained mystical power. The reason everyone found them so mysterious was simply due to a lack of understanding and the inability to harness the power within the sarira.

Despite having undergone the death-transformation into a giant python, the white-fanged demon king's massive and serpentine body moved with astonishing flexibility, slithering swiftly like a bolt of white lightning with unmatched speed.

"Lord, the crisis in Xiangyang City was resolved three hours ago!" Cao Ren reported to Cao Cao upon receiving the news.

Even though her collision had saved Qi Qi's life, I didn't feel any inclination to thank her. In my heart, I was only thinking: I saved your life, and yet you still dare to crash into me now?

Therefore, although Gong Xuehua said words like "I can just put it down myself, you don't need to take responsibility," she was secretly rejoicing inside.

On the surrounding spectator stands, not only did the people in the fourth-tier area show traces of astonishment, but many individuals in the third and second-tier areas also displayed surprise and shock. Even Wutian Shou in the first-tier area wore a peculiar expression, while the Son of Heaven appeared calm.

"Hmph, I originally planned to let you watch the sunrise over the vast grassland, you jerk, I'm hanging up, bye!" Tongyao said, preparing to hang up the phone.
