Volume 1, Chapter 28: What a Perfect Couple!

Liuhuo did not wait for a full day; after only half a day, Zuo Panyu and Yang Fan arrived to report that not a single one of the twenty-plus awakened individuals had left.

Does one understand the principle of discarding the bow once the birds are gone and boiling the hound when the hunt is over? "To die before one's cause is won, leaves heroes weeping in their robes."

With the aftermath of the great battle keeping everyone occupied, Liuhuo did not wish to disturb his elder brother, urging him to attend to his work while he found a tent to stay in near Zhongli’s command tent.

"Godfather, are you alright? If you can't handle it, I'll drink it!" Shen Ting originally wanted to accuse Feng Xiangming of playing dirty, but fearing that he might take offense at such a comment given how much he had already consumed, she changed her phrasing.

"Yingtian" was also a thief, though much more cheerful than the cold-natured "Cold Wind" from before.

Thus, having moved past the basic instinct for survival that defined the early days of the apocalypse, she was now pushing toward a higher level of life, seeking to satisfy her own ambitions.

Hearing Lu Shixia’s words, Yu Xinyuan was puzzled. Just as he was about to see what Lu Shixia would do, he saw him toss aside his bamboo hat, discard his heavy bamboo-tube life vest and straw raincoat, and charge toward the poplar grove with agile grace.

At this very moment, the reincarnation of Princess Iron Fan, Niu Chunfeng, descended from the sky and used the Plantain Fan to whip the flames into a frenzy.

Dongzi was from Yanjing and well-connected. During the early days of the Reform and Opening-up, he had traveled south to seek his fortune, first to the Lingnan region, and later to the Canal Province to start a company. Wang Peng only knew that the man made money hand over fist, but he never quite understood what business he was actually in.

As a master, one could usually discern patterns in others’ actions, but this fellow before him defied all logic, leaving his head spinning as if he had slammed it against a stone.

An hour earlier, the instigator of what Wu Lan called "storming the mountain gate" had just stepped onto the territory of the Golden Wing Tower, staring at the gate in a daze.

"Many thanks for the Great Sage's kindness, but the Dragon Palace has reserves of these items; I can simply ask my father for them," Shu'er said, shaking her head slightly.

Logically, Wu Dao should have been happy; after all, he didn't have to slowly chip away at the task, saving him untold amounts of time.

Hearing this, Xiao Bai thought to himself, "This is bad." He had been contemplating the principle of "Unyielding," and now he finally understood it was the power of laws. Since Jiu Yan also mastered the power of laws, he could naturally break the state of invincibility.

Leaving the palace was no easy feat. Ancient emperors held positions of great prestige, and the slightest mishap could shake the entire nation. As a puppet emperor, King Zhuang of Zhou was constrained by other feudal lords, making his departure even more difficult.

However, because she lowered her head to bow, Li Jingting did not notice anything unusual. When she raised her eyes again, Xinyi had regained her calm expression.

"Report to the Commander-in-Chief: according to Global Hawk's confirmation, the enemy has begun approaching our base from the northeast and due east. Requesting permission to engage," asked the commander of the Predator drone squadron.

Xia felt her neck tighten, making it difficult to breathe, and she loosened her grip on Liu’s hand.

Once Pangu finished speaking, he ignored the Heavenly Dao. Seeing the Despair Needle about to descend, he remained unhurried. With a thought, the Pangu Palace flew out from his primordial spirit.

"What do you think you're doing, holding someone's hand?" The lecher struggled for a moment before going still, casting a charming, sideways glance at him before sitting generously on Xia Ren’s lap.

Wang Meimei and the girl in green also sensed the awkward and heavy atmosphere in the room, and both furrowed their brows.

Jun Wu and Li Chongtian’s eyes widened. Another peerless medicinal pill—Ye Lingfeng could produce such things so casually that they had no idea what kind of person he really was.

She was now Murong Jue’s rightful wife; he could talk to her about anything.

However, at that moment, a green smoke rose from the arena. When the smoke cleared, it was discovered that the person had vanished, leaving behind only a mask.

"Of course! Do as you please!" To be addressed this way, at the very least, meant he was considered a good friend. For this, Lu Yu'an was already satisfied.

Heh, you clearly wanted to sleep with me; now that you've said it, it sounds like I’ve somehow gained a great advantage.

The nine azure dragons, unable to bear the humiliation, opened their nine dragon maws wide, their breath flickering as they prepared to strike again.

Seeing the bag in Cheng Tianze’s hand, the clerk knew a wealthy patron had arrived and immediately began enthusiastically pitching products to Xiao Tingting.

Qin Yinglan stroked Lin Fei’s face. "Fei'er, you’ve grown thin." In the eyes of every mother in the world, when a son returns from a journey, he must have lost weight—such is the nature of a mother’s love.

Zhao Liyun’s complexion changed in a way that was truly staggering. Mo Feizi could only smile awkwardly and lower her head to drink her soup in silence.

If it were her usual appetite, one bowl would have been enough, but after exercising all night, it was no longer sufficient. Xi Ran looked at Mo Linyuan with a resentful expression.

"Many things are not as simple as you think. To hurt others, one must first possess sufficient strength oneself. Does the family currently have that kind of power?"

The group of more than ten people walked toward Lingtian Palace while admiring the celestial scenery of the Central Continent.

"Behave yourself." The next second, Feng Dachuan was pinned to the floor and subdued by the warden.

"Heh heh heh heh, Old Man Changhen has prepared quite a few obstacles. Could it be to test and select a successor?" The shadow let out a laugh that sounded inhuman, sending chills down the spine.

Yan Naonao’s body gradually went limp, and as she pushed against him, her fingertips brushed the skin beneath the man’s open collar.

It seemed that this person had not only survived but had reached the pinnacle of achievement in the study of arrays, using flesh and blood to set up an immortal’s formation.
