Volume 1, Chapter 57: The One Person Who Cannot Be Spared Is a Regent

There was usually food stocked in Cheng Rongjian's refrigerator, so there was no need to worry about that issue at all.

Zhan Tian's body shot backward through the air once more, a large mist of blood spraying into the void. Caring little for his condition now, Zhan Tian shoved a handful of pills into his mouth, swallowing them before their medicinal efficacy could even take effect. He panted heavily, trying his best to absorb the dense spiritual water energy surrounding him.

As Hua Jitian spoke, he snapped Zhou Lianmao's other arm beneath his foot. It was not that Hua Jitian was cruel; rather, as a cultivator at the eighteenth level of martial arts, Zhou Lianmao possessed the capability to harm Hua Jitian even with only a single arm remaining.

"What on earth is going on here!" Old Master Yan struck the floor with his cane, producing a sharp, resounding echo. His voice was booming and carried immense weight.

Jiang Guangguang did not even know how she had managed to walk downstairs. When she reached the entrance, Mo Sang called out to her. Her reactions were sluggish; it took her several tens of seconds before she turned her head and looked blankly at Mo Sang.

"Is this the extent of your full strength? If you were to fight at your absolute peak, we would stand no chance at all. If even you are like this, how terrifying must Lord Dilong be?" Zhan Tian muttered softly as he gazed at the black dragon, a complex expression flashing through his eyes.

As his gaze flickered, he carefully scrutinized the three black lotuses. Being closer to them now, he could see them much more clearly, and he could vaguely discern that each of the three black lotuses was shimmering with a faint layer of radiant light.

Watanabe Kazukaze did not order his men to launch another attack. Even if they lost this time, as long as these people survived, the Watanabe family would still retain a foothold on the Ryuden Mainland. As long as these elite shadow-ninjas remained, his Watanabe family would still have a chance to make a comeback.

The number three boss in the provincial government received a severe reprimand over a phone call from Beijing. It was rumored that he had originally been poised to succeed the number one boss, but because of this phone call, those hopes were practically dashed.

Wei Dafu hesitated. He still suspected that Jiang Xin was lying and deceiving him, as it was unlikely she could possibly have that much money.

Casually picking up an object from the table, she tossed it over. Xia Xinnuan raised a hand and deftly caught the flying heavy object—it was a mobile phone.

Especially those who had just become Ghost-Manipulators this year, such as Anna and Yang Jian, were required to attend without exception.

Russell did not look at the sole soldier who retained any combat capability. He softened his tone as much as possible; this was the utmost he could do.

"Main group, pull back a few steps. Hug the wall for rain protection, and warlords, execute attack command." Seeing this positioning, Kong Cheng felt a lot more at ease.

True to its reputation, this place imported a vast amount of beef and provisions by air from overseas.

Since Zhang Fenglan was happy, Shi Meiqi was naturally happy as well, seeing as Fenglan was the talent she had discovered through watching Hanfu live streams.

Huo Yunting's previous "set visits" were actually nothing more than having meals together with Ye Lanxue, and people usually spotted him in settings like hotel restaurants.

Disinfecting the market required diluting disinfectant with tap water, but the market management office had called yesterday to report a water outage, telling him to resolve the issue himself.

Wu Qiang's voice drew the attention of those around them, and everyone turned their gazes toward Liu Ye.

These guards also fell silent. Since the Khatun chose to remain and await the Great Khan's return, they had no reason to flee the imperial tent city either, so they stayed behind as well.

When Li Dongsheng went out early in the morning, he caught a whiff of an unusual scent in the air—the virus of a plague. Li Dongsheng did not know how those people had managed to disperse these viruses into the air, but his sharp sense of smell easily detected the anomaly within it.

"Roar, roar!" Letting out a furious, resonant roar, the skeleton giant swung its other massive hand outward with the overwhelming momentum of a collapsing mountain.

The Grand Canal had grown much quieter now; an increasing amount of bulk cargo had begun traveling north via maritime routes, leaving the Grand Canal primarily used by passenger vessels.

"Three days? I cannot wait that long. Would you like me to demonstrate it for you right now?" Wu Yi said full of confidence. Naturally, he was not going to execute it in actual practice; instead, he recited the insights he had comprehended along with the essential principles of circulating primordial energy, giving Han Xue a firm foundation of understanding.

"Your Majesty, why have you graced us with your presence? You are truly overwhelming this subject with undeserved honor!" Zhang Zhijie was startled by the sudden appearance of the Zhengde Emperor.

The Amanite crystal embedded within the energy-slashing greatsword was filled to the brim with energy that Fang Cheng could utilize—this was also a part of Fang Cheng's strength.

Truth be told, although they had only exchanged a few words, I already had a rather favorable impression of Zhao Manyun. Perhaps this was simply the power of blood ties.

"Clatter!" With a heavy stomp, the Red Star mecha instantly kicked three sea beasts flying several meters away. While it looked effortless, the impact force was already sufficient to injure the sea-bugs.

When a buzzing sound reverberated through this space, I immediately realized that these red liquids were actually a swarm of insects.

This place was a realm established by Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, allowing those who had committed heinous sins to understand the difference between good and evil so that they might attain liberation before entering the eighteen layers of hell.

Facing the fleeing Wu Sangui, the great general roared and made good on his word, using several fierce and powerful staff strikes to force Lu Xiangsheng into a panicked retreat before spurring his horse to give chase to Wu Sangui.

However, Qin Chao was no ordinary commoner, and the twitch at the corner of Li Shimin's mouth was captured entirely by Qin Chao's sharp eyes.

In Ning Hao's view, these fellows' opinions and plans were far more constructive and practicable than the fat man's.

She was completely naked, and her bodily anatomy resembled that of a human, save for the eight spider-like tentacles sprouting from her back. Her skin possessed a sickly grayish-green hue, covered in a hair-raising layer of mucus. Long, distinct blood vessels were visible beneath her skin, particularly the unusually red veins on her face.
