Volume 1, Chapter 57: How Can You Be Certain She Is The One?
"Ha, Ranhua is merely showing off before Your Highness, making a fool of myself to your amusement." Composing herself and shifting her gaze, Ranhua spoke with effortless calm.
Hearing that composed tone, as if she wished to gloss over everything that had happened before, Ye Qingtang suddenly let out a light laugh.
"The attack on me was your doing as well, wasn't it?" Knowing the truth of the matter, Miao Jueyang truly felt a sense of being deceived, with no choice as he had unwittingly walked right into this meticulously laid conspiracy.
It felt as though the entire ocean was surging violently within my stomach. That intense pain became increasingly indescribable. It felt as though someone had planted a seed of agony deep inside me, and before any attempt at self-deception could be made, that seed had already sprouted and grown with breathtaking speed.
"It seems you refuse a toast only to be forced to drink a forfeit. Don't blame me for being impolite." With that, I pulled an exorcism talisman from my pocket and hurled it straight at Chen Jing.
I spoke softly into the phone while my other hand operated the steering wheel. I pressed down on the accelerator, overtaking a car that was attempting to pass me from the side.
The modest room contained only a dilapidated wooden bed, with a similarly battered wooden table placed in the center. On it sat a chipped porcelain bowl, and a broken spoon lay quietly inside the bowl, exuding an infinite sense of desolation.
"Get lost! This lady has no desire to deal with you!" Niu Suqin cursed angrily, still furious that Lin Feng had shown her no respect and caused her to lose out on an extra hundred thousand yuan.
"Yes, exactly. You are already eighteen this year. Do you know how many years you've been soaking in medicinal baths?" Hearing Miao Jueyang's reply, the old master asked again.
"Stop being angry. Take this. Although it cannot make up for your lost arm, it can at least alleviate your current condition." The handsome young man tossed a vial to the eerie figure, identical to the one he had given to Jin Lu earlier.
Seeing the hesitation on their faces, Ye Feng knew the timing was just right. With just a little more heat, this raw rice would be cooked to perfection by his own hands.
"Remove your masks and disembark in order." The Black officer retreated while holding his M16, stepping backward down the carriage. He needed to maintain a safe distance from these dangerous individuals.
"How long has this thing been sitting here?" William raised the documents, his pale lips trembling.
At that moment, the coachman pulled the reins, and four fine steeds came to a simultaneous halt, steady and orderly without the slightest disorder. General Xiao, who had turned Guojiatun upside down and given everyone no peace, dismounted first, standing respectfully with his hands at his sides, not even daring to raise his head.
There was zero suspense. For the mutated creature struck in the skull by a Bellum fragmentation round, the ultimate outcome could only be one—instant death. Even creatures mutated by nuclear radiation were no exception.
He shook his head, casting those sentimental and tedious thoughts to the winds. As the Internationale goes, "There are no supreme saviors, neither gods nor emperors." A person's rights can only be fought for by oneself. If you do not intend to fight for them, why should anyone else come to save you?
The soaring heaven furnace only had time for a single collision before the Crimson Blood Soul-Slaying Saber caught up, slashing fiercely toward the soaring heaven furnace!
Meeting her bewildered gaze, Gaolang felt a twinge of awkwardness. Had she forgotten about Wang Qian? They had only met yesterday, and the man seemed to be quite a handsome, diamond-tier bachelor... Had she truly forgotten?
This was what she had made for the two brothers, Wang Mei and Wang Gang. Because she was pressed for time, it was prepared simply: grains, shredded radishes, and scallions mixed into a batter, poured into a skillet with peanut oil to pan-fry into thin flatbreads, then brushed with sauce, garnished with scallion shreds, and wrapped with secret-recipe braised donkey meat.
"Thud, thud!" The moment the two leaped into the ocean, a violent explosion erupted from the cliff, sending the corrugated iron barracks flying into the air amidst a backdrop of black and red flames.
Song Chuchu's mind immediately became active. She could easily afford ten or twenty million. Since money could be made, she might as well make it herself. Furthermore, by investing in him now, once he developed in the future, he could help support both her and Song Yun.
At the time, Fang Tang's official explanation was that she was merely renting a room at Lin Jinyan's house under the guise of being a classmate.
There was no wind today, and the sea was eerily calm, rippling with fine scales under the sunlight. The cruise ship continued on its course, and those who had jumped into the sea never surfaced again.
At that moment, dark shadows emerged from beneath the ground—not just one, but more and more, hundreds... thousands, tens of thousands. They surrounded the Demon Lord, waving their arms in ecstatic frenzy. They had no faces, no facial features, no bones; all they possessed was a vitality as corrupt and deep as an abyss.
Hearing Xiaoyu's words, Xiaolan finally understood how high the hopes were that Cheng Tao had pinned on her. For the sake of her martial arts training, not only did he use his own body, but he even yielded Yunting to her simply because he was afraid she would suffer any grievance. Thinking of this, Xiaolan burst into tears.
Two star systems separated by hundreds of millions of light-years might actually lie adjacent to each other within the framework of space. If you possess the coordinates of the other star system and can open a spatial gateway, you can reach them in an instant.
Like a thousand-meter-long beam of light plummeting from the sky at high speed, though it made not the slightest sound, its extreme heat caused electric sparks to erupt along the surrounding tunnel walls, plunging them into a semi-melted state.
Moreover, the strength of both Lin Sisi and Wu Zhixin was quite formidable; they were currently also candidate competitors among the top ten geniuses.
The four walked into the clubhouse and entered a private room. Cheng Tao glanced around the room and recognized most of the people present.
The only thing Tong Chuxue managed entirely on her own was a single greenhouse planted with dendrobium orchids. In truth, dendrobium did not require growth inside a greenhouse, but for the sake of confidentiality, Tong Chuxue had still relocated them inside.
In Tower Spirit Number 1's scan, the Wizard Victor before them no longer belonged to the category of humans. His new physique had been re-converged by fusing divine power within the fire elemental passage. In other words, he now belonged to the lifeforms of the Fire Elemental Plane, and his arrival in the material world constituted a cross-planar action.
