Volume 1, Chapter 66: Martial Arts

Panic flickered in Yu Xuanyao's eyes, and her hands waved frantically in the air as if trying to dispel invisible fear and misunderstanding.

Her face was pale, her lips trembled slightly, and she repeatedly denied it.

However, in the fourth month of Tao Ping's tenure as an instructor at the Anti-Japanese Military and Political University, something completely beyond his imagination occurred: Zhang Hailong, the incumbent political commissar of the 911th Regiment, and Yang Hongyi, the acting regimental commander, were both wounded. Even more crucially, due to the severity of his wounds, Political Commissar Zhang Hailong succumbed to his injuries on the third day despite rescue efforts, making the ultimate sacrifice.

Moreover, far from being intimidated by the sword held against his throat, this fellow was instead eloquently urging him to join the Azure Dragon Legion. Clearly, most of what he was saying now was the truth.

His wounds still refused to heal, but under the influence of the demon-炼魔 (demon-refining) scales, negative conditions such as bleeding and ulceration were successfully suppressed.

"Your Majesty, Mr. Carno is here." Just as King Charlie was pondering how to lure Rels into the palace, an old eunuch interrupted his train of thought and said to him.

Impossible. It was only a few months ago that I reclaimed the fragments of the Frozen Throne; the next invasion of the Scourge Legion is at least a century away.

At this moment, Rels sensed an intersection point within his body that failed to connect, and the internal airflow there gradually accumulated and grew denser.

She would meticulously nurture this child, because she knew that given her pride and temperament, the men who could catch her eye were bound to be exceedingly rare. Ultimately, she would only become a bargaining chip for the family, perhaps falling victim to a political marriage for the sake of the clan's expansion.

When Lele appeared before him, he was indeed overjoyed, yet it still paled in comparison to the shock brought by these words at this moment.

As for the Bingzhou soldiers following behind him, they looked one and all like frost-bitten cabbages, entirely devoid of spirit. One by one, they were listless, their uniforms filthy and disheveled. The entire troop was shrouded in a dead, gloomy atmosphere.

How could he form such a sharp contrast with someone as exceptionally brilliant as himself? But then again, without such a manager, how could his "genius" talent be fully manifested?

Wang Zhenyu felt a great sense of relief after uttering these words. He had wanted to speak to Lu Ming ever since he first heard these rumors, yet he had held back, fearing it would only cause Lu Ming needless distress.

Last night, Qiao Yan held a live broadcast. After all, as an actress developing her career overseas, she still commanded a loyal following of hardcore fans back in the domestic market.

At the same time, Fu Hua let out a roar, and a dozen life-saving heavenly talismans instantly flew out, forming a barrier before him.

As for the door lock, Lu Yao did not dwell on it for long. While upgrading the household security coefficient was certainly important, raising her "combat power index" mattered far more.

Moreover, he was the hope of the Heavenly Dragon Sword Sect. Any disciple of the Heavenly Dragon Sword Sect could perish, but Linia—no, Lin Yan—must not.

They parted with Matt Barnes and Steve Blake, two vital rotation players for the team, along with a future first-round draft pick, acquiring former Laker Treavor Ariza from the New Orleans Hornets in return.

I have toiled bitterly in cultivation for thirteen years, yet due to my inferior talent and lack of background, my cultivation remains merely at the fifth layer of Qi Refining, with no foreseeable prospect of breaking through to the next realm.

Li Hao collapsed to the ground, his body gradually returning to normal. His eyes were filled with bewilderment and agony. "Master Chen, what... what have I done?" His voice was steeped in remorse and self-reproach.

Feeling that she had yet to fully pass Yang Kexin's test, Qiuxiang nuzzled against Yang Kexin's chest like a kitten, rubbing her head gently.

He likewise possessed the cultivation of the Bone-Tempering Realm's completion. Although he rarely resorted to violence in daily life, he was barely capable of handling a desolate wolf.

Gao Cheng and the elderly man surnamed Sun were waiting precisely for this moment. Both leaped into the air simultaneously, with the elderly man surnamed Sun taking the initiative to charge at Jiang Qin, leaving the chief water bandit to Gao Cheng.
