Night Owl saw it clearly from the side: Madam had made up her mind to bring this ill-fated pair together.

Although Chu Yuyao had regained her former beauty and her cultivation had improved, whenever he thought of the things she had done in the past, he still felt displeased.

Still, she was Chu Xiong’s daughter, and she had saved Madam. If the two young people could reconcile and get back together, he would not object.

He only hoped they would not end up clamoring for a divorce again—or for the husband to be cast off…

He had already lost face once. He could not afford to lose it again.

Since Zhai Yi had not yet decided which team to join, he was still considering and comparing the offers and future prospects of the various teams.

Inside the residence, all the generals received the decree and stepped forward to offer their thanks. They knelt as one and shouted their praises to the emperor. Zhao Gou took his seat as commander and assumed control of the military authority. Filled with pride and satisfaction, he could not help bursting into loud laughter.

“Good.” A Dai tilted her head back and stayed perfectly still, allowing him to pat her head. His palm was large, and slightly warm.

Apart from the road leading to the village auditorium, which had been smoothly paved with concrete, the other roads in Peach Blossom Village were rather uneven. Now and then, the wheels splashed through puddles, dirtying Xu Wei’s shoes.

The Cheng Xianzhi in her eyes was a refined gentleman, graceful and noble. She simply could not imagine him doing something as undignified as quarrelling.

On defense, Zhai Yi was capable of guarding opponents with the ball. He excelled at poking the ball away and stealing it while an opponent was dribbling past him, though his defense without the ball was still somewhat lacking.

Yu Nan Zi and the others could not help falling silent at the sight. Jiang Guli was finished now. A swordsman who used his right hand had had that hand severed; he would likely be reduced to nothing more than a cripple.

Even if the monk Tianlong possessed formidable martial skills, how could he withstand a sky full of arrows sharp as falling stars? He turned and fled, but there was nowhere left to go. The monk Tianlong could only retreat toward the artificial hill where he had hidden earlier. By the time he crawled inside, more than a dozen arrows had pierced his body.

The prodigies of the Primordial Sacred Land fell one after another like wheat beneath a sickle, their eyes filled with fear and unwillingness.

Because the operation had been arranged on such short notice, Carter had given them only one day. The weapons and equipment had already been assembled and were ready to go.

When the people waiting at the entrance of the tomb passage saw me emerge, they all instinctively took several steps back. Only Zhai Huimin came forward to meet me.

Even when they went out to sea, Noble Consort Wan brought along her favorite imperial chefs. She remembered to bring a great many people—imperial chefs, imperial physicians, embroiderers, and others—but forgot to bring even more people.

A hat covered his head, blocking the sunlight and half his face. His head was slightly bowed, and he wore the plain, inconspicuous clothes of an ordinary passerby.

Although Feng Zhiping had become a deputy director and enjoyed the finest food and drink when he was out, occasionally accepting a few red envelopes, all of his legitimate income was kept under Li Meixiang’s control. As long as he remained a “deputy” and never became a full director, the possibility of his amassing a fortune was practically negligible.

Watching Peng Lian repeatedly enter Gao Sheng’s body and then emerge again, I grew anxious for him. It felt as though his soul had been drawn out of his body, and even after seeing that body again, he could not enter it no matter how hard he tried.

The paper in her hand was slightly thicker than usual. Deep down, she hoped it contained words her father had written to her. Yet she also knew that was unlikely, because her father was a man who preferred accomplishing things to talking about them.

Netizens all loved the calm composure she displayed while cooking, and it gave them ample room for beautiful imaginings.

So he really was that hard-hearted man, hard as stone. It was a wonder she had once believed he liked her, at least a little.

Neither of them was an ordinary person, and neither was given to coy hesitation. Their vow for a lifetime was sealed beneath the vast sea and sworn before Heaven and Earth.

Did I really look so formidable that I could knock their leader unconscious on their own territory?

“Ugh.” The instant I left, I instinctively covered my mouth and nose. Yes, even though Shadow and Jack had already created a protective shadow shield, the moment I stepped down from the armored vehicle, an impact so powerful that it nearly made me faint still swept over my entire body.

“This fellow really is overly familiar!” Seeing Liu Dao suddenly become so enthusiastic, Su Jian rolled his eyes at him. His attempt to ingratiate himself was so obvious that there was clearly something suspicious about it.

Sun Shining naturally understood what he meant by sending her to meet Shen Nianyi. She wanted to drag Shen Nianyi away and escape. She tugged twice, but she simply did not have enough strength. If she had to let go of Shen Nianyi, she would rather die together with him.

A great many times, speculation was damnably unreliable. If one wanted to know the truth, one still had to investigate it properly, with both feet on the ground.

Unfortunately, Dongfang Yuping could not guarantee what he would become after using that thing. Would he still look human?

Zhong Kui aimed the Gale Lightning Bolt at the Dragonwhisker Gold. He needed to use the Gale Lightning Bolt to break it open and retrieve the Demon Key hidden inside. That was their true objective this time.

The Heaven-Rending Beast Soul let out a savage roar. In its eyes, everything seemed insignificant, fit only to be trampled and destroyed. Naturally, it did not take the jade slip in Yun Hao’s hand seriously.

Qing Lian grew somewhat uncertain. Frowning, she glanced at Xi, whose indifferent gaze rested on the back of Susha Suman.

Whenever she thought of the Battle of Azure Mountain, of how great the casualties on their side had been—all thanks to that traitor—her heart clenched painfully.

After her cold words fell, Yuan Qingyu waved her jade-like hand. A streak of blood-colored light shot into the air and transformed into a Blood-Drinking Demonic Zither, which floated before her.

Commander Xue did not speak. The deputy commander lacked confidence and answered rather hesitantly, his voice somewhat low.

It was not that he suspected his senior brother. He was simply afraid that someone might try to win his senior brother over and persuade him to rejoin the Demon Sect.

Within the entire Desolate Domain, Nine-God Peak possessed only third- or fourth-rate strength. Once Qing Xuelian broke through to the Tribulation Transcendence Stage, it would become a first- or second-rate power, though it would still not rank among the top forces. Thus, Qing Xuelian could see only the Desolate Domain and not the world beyond it.

When Gu Ling'er heard this, her eyes suddenly widened. She nearly fainted. It seemed this young master was destined to disappoint her. What else was there to understand? Even a pig could grasp such a simple principle—why could he not?

“So that is how it is. You actually possess such tremendous power.” The Spirit of the Azure Cauldron was rather astonished. Qi Xuanyi had actually deployed the Four Symbols Formation by himself. Although the formation was imperfect, it was still enough for Qi Xuanyi to tear open a gap within it.

Ever since the date had been set for Murong Qi’s marriage to Commandery Princess Ling Xiao, as well as for the Zong Family Medical Tournament, good news had continued to arrive without pause.

“Mom, I miss you and Dad very much too.” After Ya-ya said this, tears nearly spilled from her eyes.

That was why Ironhead did not teach me many set techniques. Instead, he taught me a number of fragmented movements and had me practice them repeatedly, striving to make them second nature. In battle, I could rely on my extraordinary agility and thereby bring my punches and kicks into full effect.
