By calculating the time, Han Shaoxun had been injured for over ten days and should have been discharged and back home by now; he must be in the bedroom on the second floor.
At this moment, the girl’s enthusiasm from the morning had completely vanished; she pouted as she got out of the car. Lin Mu closed the door, reached out his hand, and Yang Zi obediently took it, walking in the direction of home.
Delicate white feathers fluttered in from all directions. The Black Dragon Bat, trembling briefly, finally could not withstand it and shattered like broken glass, falling down in torrents.
The distant solar torch grew even more ferocious, its eyeball-like body relentlessly striking the surrounding stone sculptures.
Seeing this scene, Mo Gu grinned broadly and without hesitation hurried forward.
According to the unwritten rules of the court, the first star to take the field generally represents the team’s second-in-command. The last one to appear is the team captain.
It seemed he finally realized something. A look of shock appeared on Lin Qiong’s face; he stared blankly at Xiao Yang’s back—this man was actually a descendant of the Flame Emperor?
Ma Bao here felt the five thousand soldiers of the Chinese Guard Brigade were doomed, but weren’t the five thousand or so soldiers of the Chinese Guard Brigade equally doomed?
As dusk fell, the forest grew dark and gloomy. I lit a bonfire, asking the others to wait there for a while, then stepped out to hunt for some food.
After the company goes public, she plans to cash out all her shares and then travel everywhere, wandering through a poetic life.
With just one movement, the old man’s forehead was drenched in beads of sweat, and with the help of others, he struggled to stand up.
Before the eldest Mu could react, his wrist suddenly tingled sharply; his arm trembled and the gun clattered to the ground.
“Heh heh, no need to trouble you with this. You better go keep your companions company!” The man leading them sneered wickedly, then with one palm shattered the fat man’s forehead.
Strong defenses were useless to the two of them, especially since they both held steward-level cards; the surrounding defenses would not attack them.

I asked 27 what had happened after I fainted, but he remained silent, looking troubled. I did not push further. The Toad came personally and told me to rest well and not to worry about anything else.
Perhaps someone would ask, having been reincarnated or transported and brought back to life, why bother worrying about gender? As long as you can continue living, and besides, you are no longer disabled but a healthy, normal person.
The golden light of the Spirit Shield was continuously shattered by blood-red blade flashes, swirling like countless fireflies before gathering again to form the shield.
Even facing academy defenders a level above, so what? When it’s time to act, these elite students won’t be afraid!
She was framed just because of such a trivial reason? Although she was idle, that didn’t mean she wanted to make trouble with them.
“Sss—” Another sharp tearing sound. Li Qiong’s long sleeve was formally torn into two by Yang Lan. Fortunately, she wore enough clothes underneath, so no fair skin was exposed.
Two accountants counted and verified repeatedly, sweating profusely, and after confirming, issued a ten-thousand-yuan receipt.
Now Li Yingjun’s thoughts were like the steam rising from this hot tea, recalling the past with deep emotions that lingered and refused to fade.
Moreover, Empty missiles were extremely expensive, costing from hundreds of thousands to over a million dollars, yet they could only target unprotected ground objectives, which were usually not worth much. Such tactics, even if successful, were highly uneconomical.
“Fake, right? This guy sure knows how to pretend. Maybe he stole the copy himself,” Gao Lu complained angrily.
Lin Feng’s lecture took place in the same classroom as Lin Sisi’s class. Of course, both the school and Lin Feng warned the students beforehand to maintain discipline and not cause any trouble.
Suddenly, Li Dazhong lunged forward, sitting on him, panting heavily, throwing punches. One punch, two punches, over ten successive blows, leaving Yuan Changming bleeding from the mouth, nose, and ears, utterly motionless.
Once locked by this intense suction, the energy hidden underground burst forth powerfully, trying to break free. But Jing Tang had spent so much time already; there was no way it would let this energy escape easily.
“...Shameful.” Yun Qianqian turned to ask Lingling Yao, “Forget about the elder for now. What about the poisonous grass from the other shore?” The elder’s capture was understandable, but why were the large group of poisonous grass people absent as well?

The five children began receiving Li Yingjun’s education from around six or seven o’clock, even before finishing their meals. Though the process was rough and the lesson dragged on until complete darkness, the results were acceptable. Li Yingjun breathed a satisfied sigh.
A Jiu understood everything clearly. She tightly gripped the sealing talisman. Since the incident with Mu Qianchen, a deep and irreparable rift had formed between them.
Diao Han’s words made perfect sense, inevitably causing Rong Jing to entertain similar thoughts. Jian Shaojun and others, recalling the three abilities Yan Tianyu used, also found Diao Han’s reasoning quite sound.
What if we think differently? Suppose the Amulet absorbed a large amount of gifts from the Narcissus root in its water fairy form and then upgraded itself? The idea spread like wildfire, unstoppable.
At this critical moment, Wei Fenghua sensed danger and sent his family away to the countryside. To Shi Fengyi, who wanted to stop, it seemed like a guilty conscience, believing he must have done something wrong to Chu Yongning. Since the slaughter had already begun, one more made no difference.
“He’s probably an idiot, obsessed with Qi’ao, what a lousy taste,” Qi Nanjin cursed, showing no respect for his own father. He looked down at Gu Huaijin, fast asleep, and kicked him lightly.
People like Chen Tiantian never considered ordinary wage earners worth their attention. In her mind, these workers’ monthly salaries probably didn’t match the cost of one of her lunches.
Later, I didn’t ask Yaoyao any more but talked with her about the events of the past two years and about her and the teacher named Xiao Li.
Then I left dejectedly. Since then, I grew even less fond of Zi Yi because Zi Yi liked Mu Qianchen.

This basement space was enormous, packed with rescued civilians along with members of the Space Bureau, the Hunting Unit, and Su Ya and others.
