“Since that is the case, I really have no idea what there is about me that Miss Hongchen could possibly admire!” Chu Tianshu shrugged.
Mecab was a soldier, and a soldier easily swayed by emotion. He could never bring himself to strike at his brothers or former comrades, even though they now served different masters.
The gigantic beast in the distance had drawn near. Under the pressure that seemed to solidify the air and compress the heavens downward, Liu Yun’s figure swayed faintly, and his clothes sagged hundreds, even thousands of times more heavily than usual.
This was He Chengzizai’s true inner world. His former calm and detachment had merely been a facade concealing his heart.
The Grand Tournament was not far from where Si Cheng and the others lived. They arrived in less than half an hour.
In truth, most of them were merely indignant. If they were really asked to fight a battle, they would be unwilling.
Lu Zifeng had originally thought that after forcing Mo Hao into such desperate straits, he could have no trump cards left. He had never expected him to possess such a terrifying fifth-grade talisman as the River-Burning Talisman.
It was much the same with Luo Cheng; something about him felt wrong. When they had first met, Mu Bing had been together with Luo Cheng. At first, it seemed a coincidence, but later they learned that the moment Mu Bing appeared, Luo Cheng had found her—as though he had been waiting there specifically for her.
Zhou Qingyuan cared deeply about being looked down upon, but she still wore a warm smile. She would never lose her decorum before the Prince of Han.
After receiving Song Chaoyang’s instructions, one of the emergency center officials responsible for treating the wounded at the scene pulled away the white cloth covering one of the corpses’ heads, displaying the face to the assembled leaders.
Eve took a day off because her grandfather had fallen seriously ill again. Word was that this time it was genuine. With Eve absent from Feng Guang’s side, Feng Guang could not leave the palace to look for Herman either.
At the very least, anyone looking in from outside—or pressing a camera against the glass to film—would see nothing but a sheet of blackness.
Therefore, no matter what happened next, they could not allow the Nightmare Lord’s clone in the arena to survive.

All the famous figures of the capital knew this. They also knew that Xiao Che and the Wu brothers were interested in her. She had originally been promised to Wu Jiu Si, but the Wu family had been destroyed by the Ninth Master Xiao.
Miao Sheng was the Fierce Tiger Gang’s figurehead. If Xiao Yan defeated him completely or killed him, the Fierce Tiger Gang would be in grave danger. As a merchant, Black Tiger would not choose to continue seeking revenge. Instead, he would sit down and negotiate with Xiao Yan.
The enormous sawtoothed devil ray king had clearly not expected any of the cultivators on the cliff to be able to withstand its attack. With a bizarre shriek, it hurriedly drew its wounded tentacle back beneath its body. Yet the Yellow Springs Dao-Pattern Fruit on its largest tentacle flashed repeatedly, transforming all the blood scattered through the air into vast clouds of poisonous mist.
Having said that, he immediately pressed the red hang-up button, giving the person on the other end no chance to stop him.
Just as she was about to turn around and fetch a stool from the dining room, a pair of handsome, well-knuckled hands suddenly reached out from behind and encircled her from the front.
Chen Fan turned his head and gazed at Lan Rou. Only then did he notice that she was covered in blood. A deep wound marked her left arm, while her right leg was injured as well, with a five-clawed bloody gash on the inner thigh.
If he had not wanted to test the Strength King’s abilities, Li Yang could have killed him with a single punch.
The message still had not arrived. With only one minute left, she held her breath for a moment, then gritted her teeth and slammed the button. Even if the boss dropped a guild token, she would bid for it. At worst, she could sell it afterward.
Within the fog, a man clad from head to toe in golden armor emerged. Strange red light glimmered in his eyes, and two massive halberds were strapped to his back. His overwhelming battle intent scattered the mist around him, making the stench of blood even more intense.
“By the way, what are this Divine Continent, Divine City, and Divine Ranking Tournament you mentioned?” Zi Lingtian asked. He had actually been listening just now, but the conversation had been interrupted.
The Young Master’s whereabouts were unknown, and Blackie could no longer sense any trace of Zi Lingtian’s life force. The higher-ups of the Slaughter Divine Dynasty were instantly plunged into grief, believing that their Young Master might truly have fallen.
Chen Fan hurriedly examined his body from within and discovered that, in that short span of time, the true energy within him had weakened once again. Apart from the violet energy, which could still circulate, the emerald-green true essence had somehow become mixed with black baleful energy, causing it to circulate several times more slowly than usual.
Having suffered such a major loss at Jiang Tian’s hands, the Lionheart Army would surely be disgraced if it failed to reclaim what it had lost.

Of course, although Chen Quanbing had spared no effort in plotting against Chen Fan, Chen Fan had still remained true to himself. He had originally intended to transfer 3.4 billion, but instead transferred 4 billion directly.
Li Yang did not care about any of that. He looked toward the ground, and the very first sight he saw caused his expression to change.
Because the name change had been carried out so quietly, no one besides him knew about it—not even his father, who was always overwhelmed with affairs. Otherwise, if the old man learned that his son, the family’s God of Wealth, no longer bore the Chen surname, he would surely come charging over to fight him to the death.
Yet reality told her that, despite possessing the experience of so many lifetimes as well as the original host’s memories, she still could not defeat Xing Xiang.
The servants immediately lifted the coffin, while the original host’s maternal uncle stepped forward and kicked over the two benches.
However, he seemed to have failed to understand one thing: this was the Song household, and these were all servants of the Song family.
When they reached Director Yu’s office at the administrative bureau, Director Yu had just finished arranging the work below and happened to have some free time. After exchanging a few polite words, Ying Jun stopped making small talk and prepared to get straight to the point.
Violent power disturbed the tranquil depths of the abyss. The demons vented their fury without restraint, stirring up the overlapping spatial folds at the bottom of the abyss. The surging dark currents transformed the place into a genuine forbidden zone for living creatures.
Qianqian nodded and gave Nanny Sun and Xier a reassuring look before following the bailiff away at an unhurried pace.
People really were such complicated creatures. At first, I was not used to the way he treated me normally. Now that he has returned to his usual self, I find my heart aching and uncomfortable instead.
Sharp teeth, with blood trickling from them. Azure eyes were carved into either side of the door. The enormous cavity in the middle was the source of that gaping maw filled with fangs.
