Volume 1, Chapter 41: What Secret Lies Between Them?
Chu Feng did not dare to be careless either. Wind seemed to rise beneath his feet as he dodged repeatedly. At such a close range, no matter how powerful he was, it was very difficult to catch bullets with his bare hands, so he had no choice but to evade.
Zhao Yuan and Zhou Yan arrived, but looking at Zhou Yan's bruised and swollen face, it was obvious he had taken quite a beating.
Therefore, upon learning that this unprecedented natural disaster was approaching, he was the most anxious of all.
Back then, Yu Meng was also proud and arrogant, refusing to submit to anyone. She had charged all the way along the main thoroughfare, taking a commanding lead, only to be overtaken by an unknown man.
Meanwhile, on the other end of the phone, Lin Yin sat in the president's office of the Zhongtian Hotel, his expression as gloomy as still water.
As a power imbued with a divine aura descended, the Black Dragon Bamas felt a gaze filled with malice fall upon him.
"Master Lin, the matter you instructed me to look into has been investigated," Shen San said respectfully over the phone.
Following the old matriarch's call, everyone turned back and saw that the stone wall at the far end had opened. There was no extra passage inside, only a casket resting there.
Generally speaking, the stamina of illusion casters was limited. No matter how formidable the caster, their illusions could not last for more than fifteen minutes, so she was not overly anxious.
Aside from the physician who diagnosed illnesses, there were apprentices boiling herbs and dispensing medicine, while the rest were simply patients.
She thought that by putting on a pitiful, tear-stained appearance like pear blossoms drenched in rain, the surrounding students—especially the boys—would speak up for her.
Empress Shunyuan frowned in displeasure, but since the Emperor had already made his decision, it was not appropriate for her to say anything more.
This Mid-Autumn Festival was also the first one she had ever spent in this world, and the first time she had family accompanying her to celebrate it.
Now that the people of the three royal estates understood the whole story, they couldn't help but feel a pang of sympathy for the Su Miaoyue before them. Moreover, she perhaps had already tried very her best to apologize.
Prompted by the Grand Tutor's proposal during the imperial court session, he mentioned Han Yingxue's meritorious service in treating refugees this time and insisted that she must be generously rewarded.
"Then may I ask the Demon Emperor, where has Xiyue been reincarnated?" the Heavenly Queen asked, looking at Di Jiuyin.
"Heavy bombardment with full firepower!!!" Seeing the soldiers of the three clans attempting to land on the shore, Mu Yunqing immediately issued the order.
Let alone Luo Yao, even someone as worldly and experienced as Luo Tingbin had not expected such a twist.
Without further thought, Jun Zhi looked the God of the Underworld straight in the eye. "So, are you acting under the orders of your Lord Underworld to threaten me not to participate in the Fate-Master election?" Jun Zhi transmitted her voice soul-to-soul as well.
Feng Qing expressed her gratitude for the favor and slowly stood up, yet Empress Shunyuan's plan had thus been ruined by Feng Qing.
When the zombie was attacked, Zhou Yi heard a sound resembling an electric drill. It lasted for a very short time, just a second or two, but after the sound ceased, the zombie actually stood frozen in place, motionless.
When suffering reaches a certain extreme, one realizes that gazes cannot solve problems, nor can they even vent the emotions pent up in one's heart.
Ouyang Haobai reached out to scratch the back of his head, but recalling Xiang Fan's martial arts skills, he ultimately gave up on the idea.
Everyone always said that my childhood sweetheart was gentle, kind, warm-hearted, and breathtakingly handsome. In truth, all of that was just an act; he was black-bellied toward me, ordering me around to do this and that. What made me the most furious was that he always scored one point higher than me on every exam, and as soon as it was over, he would sneer and mock me, enough to drive a person mad.
Shinjo, the gold-medal Ultraman tokusatsu supporting character of the Victory Team, asked with some astonishment. He simply could not fathom how a meteorite could possibly be artificially created.
Before he could even speak, Lin Xiao cut him off. Rayquaza gave a dry cough and shut its mouth. Its original intention was to probe Arno to see how it would react, but it never expected Lin Xiao to guess its intentions the moment it started speaking, forcing its action to be aborted on the spot.
"Alright." A trace of abnormality flashed through Liu Qinghe's eyes, but she still nodded obediently.
Sun Manmei was holding down the fort inside the villa, currently summoning everyone to inspect all the security systems. None of them could absolve themselves of blame for today's incident.
"Brother Chenchen, how do you feel?" Compared to Ling Xi, Ling Baoju's greeting was much more comfortable to the ear.
Seeing that dusk was approaching and they had visited every military recruitment post—with the Grand Princess also having thoroughly showcased her presence before the common people—the group headed toward the Princess's mansion.
After reaching a peak, these shadows transformed into tangible tentacles, forming a giant cocoon wrapped by those tentacles. While astonishing the Draenei, it also completely blocked any further view of Li Qing's vaguely perceived figure.
The moment Gu Qingcheng sent out this message, she felt that her topic-shifting and remedial method was beyond clumsy.
One could search the entire navy and still fail to find a more troublesome pair of Vice Admirals than this combination.
Lin Jingchen chuckled a few times along with him, then picked up the coffee pot and filled Lu Ran's cup to the brim. Just as he was about to pour some for himself, he suddenly heard a loud crash coming from upstairs.
Su Niannian stared straight ahead fixedly, his lips tightly pressed together as if he hadn't heard April's words at all, remaining unresponsive for a long time.
At this moment, the two of them were climbing over a damaged building. Due to the earlier bombardment, half of the structure had already collapsed, and precisely because of this, not many people paid attention to this ruined edifice.
As one grows older, there are actually not that many taboos left; perhaps one sees things much more openly than these young people do.
Gu Qingcheng turned off the main bedroom light, lay down within the soft bedding, clutched her phone, and closed her eyes.
As for herself and Liu Ruyuan, presumably such embarrassing things had never happened; everything was merely a dream.
There was another point: Legalism emphasized monarchical centralization, specifically absolute monarchical centralization.
Judging from Murong Yu's expression, she must have been worrying about Zheng Chen and the others all along. However, because the dragon soul within the Yang Sovereign Sword had previously told her to wait right here for Zheng Chen, she dared not wander around, so she could only wait anxiously here for an entire day.
It was like this every year: those who entered the top ten in the "Youth Hegemony Tournament" would be qualified to join the Patriarch's demon-hunting team.
By this time, everyone in Kaoshan Village had already heard the news that Sun Wu had passed the imperial examination to become a scholar, and quite a few people ran over to witness the novelty.
"No, you said it yourself, the dangers inside the Venerable Tomb are beyond even my ability to eliminate. If you accompany me, I have no way to guarantee your safety!" Zheng Chen said, turning to Du Li.
