Volume 1, Chapter 58: Sentenced to Three Years
Zeng Xu collapsed to the ground, groaning and complaining bitterly. Wild Dog Taoist wore a gloomy expression, his fierce eyes staring intently at Yan Anhe.
Curious, she picked up one of the leaves. It looked somewhat like a rounded heart, and its stem was quite green. She then watched as Yulan and the others stripped the fibers away from the stems.
As he spoke, he suddenly choked on his breath and fainted. Everyone hurriedly pinched his philtrum for first aid and then carried the old lady back on their backs.
"Me." Wang Hao wanted to refute, but he could not find anything to say; he truly had never played this game before.
It made no sense for the opponent to come and steal monsters, only for Jun Zhu to share her distilled experience with them. If they wanted to figure it out, they could go puzzle it out themselves.
Qi Canghai's body moved in sync with the white crane, intending to channel his primordial energy to stabilize Huang Chen's posture. However, just as he was about to make a move, he realized it was no longer necessary, as Huang Chen had already awakened from his meditative trance.
After passing through security, Su Nainai waved at Analin, and Analin waved back to Su Nainai in a friendly farewell.
As the bloody radiance entered his heart, the heart fire that had originally been suppressed beneath the mountain and steadily weakening flared up once more, contracting rapidly and transforming into the shape of a blood-red vermilion bird. The vermilion bird cried out, spewing boundless flames to scorch the Pillar-Supporting Mountain.
Having figured this out, the palm of the hand holding my phone was already slick with sweat, feeling sticky and damp.
Lin Yuming could not spare the time to answer; his figure rushed toward the entrance of the night club like a whirlwind.
"Hehe... We finally have a child of our own~" Lin Anran smiled, looking at Zhang Yuxuan.
"Hard to say. He is different from every leader we have ever known. He possesses a strong sense of idealism and bottom lines, but I have no idea where his ultimate bottom line actually lies," Xu Qiuxiang said with a hint of discouragement.
Tan Sigui had a lively personality, but he was not someone who spoke carelessly. Based on his understanding of Tan Sigui, once Zhu Pingjin had settled in, he did not rush to pass judgment or issue punishments for the defeat. Instead, he rapidly initiated an investigation into the truth using his familiar working methods, the primary approach of which was to personally have private talks with officers and soldiers.
"Come on, let's have President Duan treat poor folks like us to a meal," Zhang Tianyi said, making it sound entirely justified.
She had told too many lies and could no longer bear it. After much deliberation, she decided she ought to tell the truth to Lin Xiaonuo; otherwise, Lin Xiaonuo would certainly never understand why she had not dared to reveal her true identity to Tan Kai.
"President Duan jokes." As if trying to vent on behalf of Ren Xuan, Zhang Tianyi's gaze swept over Duan Rushuang uninhibitedly like a plunderer, lingering from top to bottom, from her face to the soles of her feet, missing not a single inch.
Unsure of what exactly had transpired, she cautiously remained silent. She did find this Gu Yu somewhat familiar, as if she had seen her vaguely before. This was because during the few days Gu Yu had stayed in the apartment, she had rarely appeared, and at the time, she had not paid her much attention.
As his mind grew calm, Cheng Lingyu's six senses became acute, and the Myriad Tribulation Heavenly Eye in his left eye twitched slightly, as if sensing something.
These people simply had too much to eat and were thus energetic enough to argue with him here; it seemed the land rent collected from them was still too little.
Conquering Fire Cloud City meant not only that he could claim Fire Cloud Sakura—known as the Oak Star—as his sexual pet, but also that he would acquire the rare treasure of the Fox clan: the Nine-Heads Mysterious Fox Exquisite Heart.
The fruit of a Bodhisattva seemed slightly higher than that of an Arhat, yet in terms of combat capability, an Arhat—who specialized in combat and subduing demons—might not necessarily lose to a Bodhisattva. A Buddha, on the other hand, could be said to be the most supreme fruition and realm in Buddhism; both Arhats and Bodhisattvas could theoretically attain Buddhahood, but was becoming a Buddha truly that easy?
Upon hearing the stern reprimands of the three ancestors of the Witch Slaughter Sect, the group of Great Witches from the Zuo family showed not the slightest trace of fear; instead, they sneered and spoke.
The natural aura was attached to those creatures, changing as they swam, much like a magical array where the formation shifted with their movement. Hua Yueling did not know much about magical arrays, so he did not understand the significance behind it.
Xuan Xuan landed at almost the exact same moment. With his back to the white snake, he took a deep, heavy breath before looking down at the dazzling ice-blue tail-lifting grass right beside his foot.
Once this news spread, the people from various major sects instantly lost their composure. After all, if they even lost their lives, what was the use of continuing to study so-called immortal, mortal, or divine paths?
His hands holding the glass jar also slipped slightly. Thanks to Jiang Bai's quick reflexes, after a brief moment of panic, he managed to catch the fragile glass jar.
"If you keep staring at me, I'll eat you up!" Tuantuan rolled over, presenting her backside to Zhan Long with an arrogance that knew no bounds.
The rest of her words were abruptly swallowed back down, because a casual, lingering glance back from Muhua made the speaker's hair stand on end, as if she had already heard their previous curses.
Seeing that Lanna had completely forgotten the instructions given by his mother, Dina, Tao Bao had no choice but to step forward and remind him.
His kiss was rough, biting at her lips like a beast. Fortunately, the force was light and not painful, but it left a slightly tingling, itching sensation.
At this thought, his heart skipped a beat with a sharp thud, yet he remained completely expressionless. He truly wanted to see what she would say next.
Ye Lu's voice was as gentle as a kiss, but the movements of her hands were exceptionally ruthless. She poured all the remaining Datura poison powder from the hundred-flower pouch directly into Ye Tan'er's mouth, forcing her to swallow every last bit of it.
"Self-righteous hypocrites, singing a tune sweeter than birdsong, yet you still repay kindness with enmity," Mu Hanyan glanced at him contemptuously and slowly drew her Hansiao Sword.
They were no longer the naive youths who had grown up in Wancheng. After entering the capital, they had witnessed too much luxury, and amidst the flattery and adulation of the crowds, the brothers deeply understood that all of this was not merely due to their own talent; the deciding factor was that they were the sons of the Prince of Wei.
According to Jun Nongyue's words, that Miss Lu seemed to have a deep relationship with Jun Wuhen, yet the relationship between Wen Shuixin and Jun Wuhen also seemed quite profound, and she still remembered some of her fragmented memories.
Currently experiencing the destruction of her clan and the death of her brothers, she was momentarily stunned by this tragic sight, not knowing how to react.
