Volume One, Chapter 45: The Little Couple's Mutual Secrets

Knowing that his opponent this time was likely one of the four great Demon Saints of old—now the new Underworld Emperor, Xu Qianye—whose profound mastery at the late Infant God realm was unfathomable and far more formidable than ordinary humans of the same level.

Then he went to find Xiao Xue. Fei Yu did not witness Hui’s meeting with her, only knowing that later Hui rented an apartment near her home. Aside from that, Yi Chenghui showed no suspicious behavior.

That roar was earth-shattering! Ke Wang felt all the pain in his body vanish, replaced by a warm current flowing through every fiber, invigorating him completely.

Wang Bin was the first to suffer the groping; then the scene shifted back to Xu Peipei, who was crying and screaming, now stripped bare, as a group of men who had just harassed Wang Bin exchanged places and moved on to her.

They did not harbor ambitions like Zhang Jiao’s—who sought to overthrow the emperor and ascend to godhood. They were content as long as they could continue cultivating and eventually ascend to immortality.

At this moment, the Lord of Time and Space seemed in good spirits and even teased the Yue family. It must be said, Yue Wutong, this “daughter-in-law,” was undoubtedly his favorite. Though the previous daughters-in-law were fine, none compared to Yue Wutong, who was likely to become a Level Nine Diviner.

“Enough, enough. Just send two cars with some belongings to set off first. It’s comprehensive to have so many vehicles, but it’s all head without tail; who knows how long this delay will last?” Thinking of Wu Min suffering hardships at Zhaoling, she dared not waste a moment, longing to fly to his side immediately.

However, the supplies distributed were all those Shen Xingnan had previously obtained through Jia Qingsong. That year’s grain had not been fully distributed and was now just right to hand out to everyone.

The young man before him was not the former human powerhouse, yet his aura bore some resemblance.

Mu Qingfeng and the other main peaks of Tianji Sect required new disciples to undergo aptitude tests; mediocre ones became outer disciples, living at the foot of the peak to cultivate and handle sect affairs.

Watching the remaining two ROX brothers charge like mad dogs toward the super soldier near the gate tower of the SKT base.

The car accident site was about twenty meters from the bus, but just from the crash sound, it was clear the damage was severe.

The greatest fear was becoming like a stagnant pool, utterly unresponsive, powerless to fight back.

Fragments from the first world had once handcuffed her, but only as part of playing an anime character.

“What’s there to fear?” he said, slapping the railing surrounding the pagoda ahead. With a leap, he jumped to the third floor, grasping the railing and swinging himself up with force.

He possessed a natural, commanding presence that needed no words; a mere glance from him was more terrifying than a furious rage.

“Brother Xiao, I’m not afraid. I can take care of you; trust me.” Jiang Liyin had never heard Xiao YunZhan speak so coldly, but she did not want to leave.

“Before I present the final results, I will read to you all what we consider the finest works for your judgment, with the princess making the ultimate decision. What say you all?” one master said, consulting the group.

Especially toward her, a wild girl with no blood relation, he recalled that when Mother Shen first brought her in, Cheng Hua imposed seven or eight strict rules on her.

After a while, Haibrida returned with Kelly, washed free of mud, now clad again in chest armor, centurion’s helmet, and a reddish cloak. Karabis noticed the silver ring gleaming on his finger.

Gui Ling smiled faintly: “It’s nothing. My race, the Mystic Turtles, have great merit with Heaven and Earth. I survive only by the virtue of my ancestors. Were it not for this great upheaval, I might still be trapped. In truth, we should all thank this apocalyptic calamity.”

Zhang Bainin—a good name. Li Xue was quite pleased upon hearing it. Although her chubby son seemed somewhat unruly, the name was meaningful, full of endurance. Perfect. Their baby would be called Zhang Bainin.

Kui turned her head toward Jingxiang, and with just that, he felt his entire body lose control.

“What? Yi Shi was arrested? But he’s in the Right Defense Guards! How could the Chang’an magistrate arrest him?” Upon hearing her son was detained, Lady Tang lost her composure and anxiously inquired.

“Even if the supplies suffice, what about the men? After another two and a half days of fighting, how many will remain in Hexi?” Zhuge You poured cold water on their hope.

With their plans settled, Zhou Yu summoned the Jiangdong officers to the court. When all generals saw Pang Shanmin arrive personally, they were surprised, wondering if the Tang king suspected something amiss in Jiangdong.

When Denikin and Kolchak failed consecutively, the Siberian corps became the focus of support.

The personnel of three regiments quickly formed ranks according to their units, saluted Wang Wei and others, then withdrew in an orderly fashion.

Perhaps a long time passed, or maybe just a moment, but when Su Chu left the passage and appeared in a world brimming with spiritual energy, he still could not devise a solution.

Fang Qingyuan clutched her necklace, stunned on the spot, her lips twitching as if to speak but unable to voice a word.

A heavy metal chunk crashed down, kicking up clouds of dust. As the dust cleared, the giant mech reappeared, missing arms and head, its battered form rigid, occasional crackling of electricity emanating from its severed joints.

Her life must have a source of vitality, but the seed of hope sensed a life source that was not her own.

“You want to enhance your dominance through combat? But you failed, so you’re upset?” Raschi hesitated.

With Nangong Xuan present, how could they have seen the Zhan family enter the Zhan mansion unnoticed? It was perfectly normal they failed to discover it.
