Volume 1, Chapter 35: The Best Sister-in-Law
After returning to her courtyard, Mei Gongxue pondered for a moment before tucking the brocade box into her sleeve and setting off to visit her sister-in-law. It was not that she intended to complain! Regardless, Mei Yanjun had been right about one thing: the most important priority for the family right now was to ensure her sister-in-law's health.
This time, the man in black drove his blade directly toward Wei Qian’s throat. Feeling the cold tip of the knife pierce her skin, Wei Qian realized that this man intended to kill her.
The performance put on by the father and son seemed to make Empress Wei realize something; she stared at Emperor Zhongzong in disbelief, her expression telling everyone that she had been played by the two of them.
"Are we really going to fly into a star to recharge?" the Gun Girl asked, worried. The surface temperature of a star was several thousand degrees, and its core reached over a million degrees—could the warship withstand that?
When the results were revealed, Guan Deng’s mouth fell open, and he was too shocked to say a word. Such piloting technique appeared reckless and wild, yet in reality, every maneuver was executed with absolute confidence; every attitude of the fighter jet was within his calculations. Just who was this Mr. Liu? He was incredible.
"Hmph! Old Beixuan has lost his mind. Lin Yue is from the Western Realm after all; why is he protecting him so fiercely?" Zhang Miao said angrily.
"Who says that isn't what I meant? That is exactly what I meant!" It seemed Zhou Zhao had no intention of accepting Zhao Yan's favor; he made no effort to hide his feelings, interrupting him to speak his mind directly.
"Then what about before?" Upon hearing Meng Lu's answer, Li Ao and Lucy both wore expressions of confusion.
In the next instant, the Candle Dragon flapped its wings, sweeping across the five clones. The force was so immense that it shook the space, whipping up layers of storms. Mu Li spat blood as his clone shattered, followed by Gui Hanfeng, Xiao Ao, and Gui Li; all their clones were instantly annihilated, and they were sent flying from the Life-and-Death Arena, severely wounded.
Just then, several roars erupted from behind Ye Lin. He spun around abruptly, only to see a monkey-like beast appear out of nowhere and lunge at him.
"Hmph, I like so many cute little dolls. Is that a problem?" Xiao Yuhan said, clearly annoyed by Zhang Chen’s words.
"This—how is this possible? It's impossible." Xiao Bailu could not believe his eyes; the Seven-Purple Wolf had been swatted away, and its claws had been crushed.
"Young Master Gu, the surveillance footage has been retrieved," a security staff member announced, having sprinted into the VIP lounge at top speed.
Because the Eastern Victory Divine Continent was located in the east of the Eastern Profound Domain, and the Azure Dragon Hall was even further east within that continent, the elders and enforcers of the Azure Dragon Hall dispatched their disciples to search for the genius who had triggered the anomaly: Ye Daotian.
"Are you going to keep bidding or not? Can you no longer afford it?" Song Que asked impatiently, his voice filled with irritation.
Yan Yan was lost in memories of his time with Luo Luoshen when Zhao Qi’s arrival interrupted his thoughts. He turned to look at her, remaining silent.
"You want to look at the scenery?" Zhang Yefan asked, finding Chu Fengquan’s movements quite strange.
Once a zombie continues to evolve and reaches the sixth level or higher, it gradually begins to develop a sense of sentience.
How much time had passed? How could there be fewer than a hundred disciples of the Gu God Sect left standing? Was the combat power of Ye Daotian’s spiritual avatar really on par with a peerless prodigy?
"If you learn to breathe without using your nose while underwater, you won't need to wear it, but choking on water is very unpleasant. You decide for yourself," Ye Yang said earnestly.
And what about himself? Although he was willing to pacify the south, from another perspective, wasn't he also being toyed with by the ministers in the imperial court? The reason was simple: they held more power than he did. Yang Yan shook his head with a bitter smile, refusing to dwell on it any further.
