Volume 1, Chapter 40: Sit up here and hold me!

In the darkness, those ink-black eyes suddenly met hers. In their profound depths surged an indefinable agitation. Shen Sisi, feeling as though she had been caught in the act, guiltily averted her gaze. Realizing that she harbored a carnal desire for Gu Chengfeng, her heart skipped a beat, losing its usual rhythm.

A moment later, the sound of splashing water echoed from the bathroom. Shen Sisi pricked up her ears; it was Gu Chengfeng taking a shower.

Wang Feng was merely an inner-sect disciple at the second level of the Divine Ability stage; how could he possess such a formidable physical body? It was utterly inconceivable.

The two were delicate and charming, as if sculpted by the gods, without a single flaw. They drew the gaze of numerous cultivators, and many sharp-eyed old fellows began to cast greedy, piercing looks their way.

Everyone who heard this could not help but chuckle, their expressions turning peculiar. "Indeed, indeed, heh heh!" they muttered, their tone suggesting that few truly believed Xiao Ying’s words.

Yet, Hua Bin grew more courageous with every setback. His speed did not slow; rather, he recovered more fluidly, and the duration of his endurance continued to lengthen.

Clang! The autumn leaf twin blades danced. The gaping maw of the wolf-head phantom snapped shut, its fangs clashing against the sword-shaped silhouette.

Outside, a storm of blood and carnage was brewing. Having extracted vital intelligence from Huang Wei, Liu Ziqing immediately led his team in a massive arrest operation. The mysterious and powerful special forces unit swung into action; though composed entirely of rookies, they still demonstrated overwhelming combat prowess.

He cursed himself inwardly, wishing he could slap his own face. Hua Mulian’s performance was not merely that of a competent police officer; she was practically a seasoned detective. In this regard, she was quite like classmate Haiyuan—an exceptionally gifted individual who preferred not to draw attention to herself.

Xiao Ying took one look and saw her ample bosom and curvaceous hips. Though she was just a common country girl, she possessed a certain allure that left him restless, his blood surging and his face instantly flushing crimson.

Wei Wuji had developed the eight auxiliary meridians of the third tier, but due to a shortage of spirit stones, he had yet to break through and connect them. While contemplating and practicing the cultivation of sigils, he discovered that the four auxiliary meridians in his hands and feet had been opened up without him even realizing it.

Today was bound to be tragic. The vehicle provided for the transfer was highly unreliable, signaling unknown dangers ahead.

The understated black minivan sped away, leaving behind only a short, impressive speech and a solitary, weathered silhouette.

Sun Yang spoke to Hua Manlou. Though he said it lightly, his words left Hua Manlou stunned, his mind a complete blank.

"Very well. Emma and I will wait for you at home." As the plane touched down at Los Angeles International Airport, Zhao Sheng was drenched in sweat from nervousness, but Emma seemed unaffected by the incident from a few days prior, shouting and full of energy.

"Do you know what I like most about you?" Terry paused his work for a moment, looking at him with a smile.

As the sound of metal clashing rang out, Su Mu was pushed back several steps by the immense force. He hurriedly plunged his solidified spiritual light-blade into the ground to anchor himself, finally coming to a halt.

"I believe that the one most likely to win the recognition of a divine artifact is a pure heart that presses forward fearlessly, coupled with an understanding of the Heavenly Dao. Try to resonate with the divine object," Nie Li said.

"Ha! These two iron balls—are they children's toys? You think you can hurt me with these? Simply laughable!" Lü Qiansha roared with laughter, his voice dripping with mockery.

The Heavenly Alliance and the Demon Alliance launched a fierce counterattack against the forces under Gu Heng. While Gu Heng’s side suffered far greater losses than the two alliances, they suddenly received reinforcements of over two hundred experts at the Heavenly Transformation realm, forcing Gu Bei and Li Xingyun to temporarily retreat and avoid the brunt of the assault.

At that very moment, the great net descended upon Su Mu’s head. Under his cold gaze, it dropped down, as if gripped by a pair of transparent hands. As it caught him, the two ends pulled tight, instantly trapping Su Mu within, leaving him unable to struggle.
