The Alchemy Furnace I didn’t go to bed until one o’clock. 2256 words 2026-04-11 01:30:59

"S... Senior Sister Yun..."

The surrounding disciples were all stunned for a moment. If anyone else had said such words, it would have undoubtedly drawn refutations and even verbal taunts. But since it came from Yun Su... it instantly made them doubt themselves first, while others remained half-sceptical.

"Senior Sister Yun must be joking!" Zhou Ji forced a stiff smile. "How could this possibly be Thunder Wood? Although Thunder Wood and Zephyr Wood are both brown, this piece clearly has multiple inconsistencies."

Zhong Gao and other tier-two senior alchemists remained silent, merely refocusing their gaze on the thin piece of wood with a sharp glint in their eyes, attempting to discern the truth.

"Thunder Wood and Zephyr Wood share the same origin, but differences in their growing environments cause them to transform into..."

The doctor was also quite an interesting person. He first glanced at Cheng Hao, then looked at Chang Yi, seemingly trying to determine who the patient's boyfriend was before beginning to explain to Chang Yi.

Yet he knew that neither quarreling nor fighting could solve the problem, so he began to take deep breaths to calm himself down.

Just like a father telling a fairy tale to his child, Qi Ruize read gently to Han Jinyu.

Later on, Song Zheyi rescued the prefecture of Subei, but Su Mianmian was already deeply poisoned and would be tormented by illness for the rest of her life—this was the suffering of sickness among the eight sufferings.

Seeing her remain silent, the corners of his lips curved in a sarcastic sneer, making it evident that Han Jinyu was mocking her for talking to herself.

After taking two steps up the stairs, he felt something was amiss, turned around to call out to Mother He who had already turned away, and spoke in a deep voice.

Outside the room where Zhu Ning was being guarded, two sentries lay horizontally on the ground. Inside the room, Zhu Ning had her mouth stuffed, her body covered in bloody gashes.

Li Tan stopped smiling as well. Looking at my clumsy performance, he cast a cold, disdainful glance at me before getting up from the bed and striding away with casual grace.

The anger in Qi Ruize's eyes gathered more and more intensely, staring straight at him as if he meant to reduce him to ashes.

Rolling it up while speaking with indignation, the middle-aged demon vanished abruptly before Kyle could respond.

"However, matters are not nearly as simple. Although I am honored as the City Lord, I cannot simply leave the main city at will. A City Lord's duty is to protect the city and ensure its safety—an oath I swore upon taking this office," City Lord Ruining said helplessly.

Seeing that Li Youwei was covered in blood, Yuan Shuyi covered her mouth in shock and hurriedly stepped forward to check on her. Only after seeing she was uninjured did she heave a sigh of relief.

Recalling the Frog Valley Yuan Xi intended to visit, Wu Daozi thought of Yuan Xi's potentially even more formidable master, stirring a sense of yearning in his heart, though he dared not ask too much.

The next morning, Tang Yao woke up. As soon as he stepped downstairs, he caught an alluring fragrance.

Tang Yao glanced at him, then swiftly picked up the dice cup. With just a single shake, the cup slammed onto the table.

Nangong Yiren practiced the Art of Divine Concealment; unless physical contact was made, the Drunken Madman would never be able to sense Nangong Yiren's cultivation level.

I quietly looked at Su Ran. Her eyelashes were very long, and her face was exceptionally pale, smooth, and largely flawless. I reached out and gently brushed a lock of her hair aside.

Not until the figures of the four completely vanished did Kong Jie wipe the cold sweat from his forehead with lingering fear.

Because the soldiers on Jiang Dong's side were crouching in the grass, visibility was naturally low. With such a head-on charge, although Cang Jiang's raw strength and marksmanship were vastly superior, the casualty ratio at this moment seemed to have no suspense.

When the two walked into the villa, the dining room was already filled with people. The two vacant seats clearly belonged to Mu Ziqiang and Qiu Jinghao.

"Meimei got bullied again?" Situ An kicked off his shoes and walked inside, effortlessly grabbing the collar of Fang Yixia who was attempting to make her escape.

"You really won't take him in?" Listening to Wang Chongyang's tone, Zhou Botong felt a fresh wave of annoyance and asked.

"Sigh!" Hearing his younger brother say this, Qiu Dazhuang furrowed his brows tightly and let out a soft sigh.

No matter the environment of any region, he knew wolves, tigers, or leopards roamed there. After all, even beasts had their own territories.

Qiu Chuji was on the path of enlightenment, and when conversing with the Three Officials, he had even made the grand vow to "deliver all living beings in the world." Hearing his senior brother discuss these matters of spreading the Dao—things he had never heard of nor practiced before—he listened with utmost earnestness, silently committing them to memory in his heart.

"Get lost! Come back!" Ning Xizi's face flushed red. His second brother had grown increasingly black-bellied ever since he started following Xu Su.

Luo Ziqing, having been rudely awakened, roared and hurled a pillow at the man before her, only for him to catch it with practiced dashing grace.

"Red Bamboo? Ah yes, I almost forgot. Your Highness, this person has been poisoned by Red Bamboo," Mr. Han said with a sudden flash of realization.

Yet, at this critical juncture, something entirely unexpected happened right before their eyes.

Now that supreme authority in Xinjing rested in the hands of the Japanese, if Zhou Weiguo wanted to eliminate and kill them, he needed to plan things out with utmost meticulousness.

Her face bore some bruises, and one corner of her mouth had dried bloodstains. When she opened her mouth, a metallic smell of blood mixed with a foul stench emanated from within, reminiscent of something rotting away.

"So, all of this was orchestrated by True Immortal Qinghua, backed by Ouyang Nanxue as the mastermind. Your Divine Gu Sect, Suiyang Mountain, and Corpse Exorcism Sect are all accomplices, while the Bai family merely happened to get caught up in it," said Zhou Ji.

"This skeleton exudes something bizarre. Let me purify it for you..." Grand Priest Sonny said, stepping forward eagerly with the Holy See's scepter in hand, the tip glowing with the radiance of holy light.

Under the vast heaven among all living beings, she had not transmigrated into anyone else, yet had precisely become "An Xueling." This was undoubtedly prearranged by the heavens. To be even more conceited, she surely possessed her own mission—one that no one else could fulfill.

The moment the Poison Scorpion Mercenary Group opened fire, they astoundingly discovered that their targets had vanished into thin air.

The outer walls of the train were constructed from a super-alloy, so there was no need to worry about them being breached anytime soon, but Su Seventeen had no confidence in withstanding that sonic wave attack.

The loud crash arrived right on schedule. The powerful shockwave blasted Jiang Feng back several metres, whereas Xie Fei merely shifted his right foot half a step forward.

"Forgive me, brother." Watching Yang Zh's figure charge directly into the flames, Ross silently murmured in his heart.

At this moment, she admired her third sister to the point of absolute awe. Originally, she had intended to tag along with her eldest brother and third sister to watch the commotion, but her third sister had told her to delay her arrival to avoid arousing suspicion. By doing so, her third sister had washed her hands clean of the affair; unless her eldest aunt and second sister exposed the plot against her, who would ever suspect her?
