Good grief, what a mess! Fine, I could only awaken my potential and make full use of my keen eyes, staring fixedly at that coin.
Heh-heh, everything was unfolding exactly as I had anticipated. I had planned to crush their morale first, then defeat them one by one. As long as I took out a few of their leaders, that would do the trick.
Su Muyan, who had never seen her like this before, spoke in surprise. She immediately carried the milk into the room and closed the door behind her.
More precisely, it was his single room in the military barracks. What he meant was that Wen Yang was in danger, so he had no choice but to keep her by his side.
He hurriedly guided a wisp of source consciousness into Bao Zhishan’s Cosmic Bracelet. Then, with a slight exertion of force, he completely erased it.
After Leng Qianmo awoke from his sleep, his mood was indeed much better. He felt that Tao Yaoyao was practically a miraculous cure for him.
The spatial passage closed. The Flying Yaksha was no longer connected to this world and was completely exiled to some corner of the universe.
But he did not know what to send. He also wanted to block the other person, and he tried several times, but in the end, he could not bring himself to do it.
Yu Yansong suggested it. For some reason, ever since entering the Light Domain, he had always felt a faint unease in his heart.
Earlier, my eldest uncle had mentioned to Coffin Liu that he wanted to take out the things my grandfather had left behind to help me get through this crisis, but Coffin Liu had rejected him outright.
After Charlotte recruited Gwen and Bancroft, her spirits lifted slightly as well. At last, she felt as though she had traveled back to the Three Kingdoms era to recruit the greatest warriors of the age. Though Spotted Deer Gwen and Wolf of the Gale Bancroft could not possibly be considered great generals among the supernatural beings of the Old Continent, the sense of accomplishment was the same.
Compared with the combination locks of earlier years, the manor’s owner had presumably commissioned something like this to protect the contents inside, not destroy them.
The rainbow-colored light behind him suddenly burst apart as well, transforming into specks of light that all sank into the black dragon’s body.
After Jiang Nan dropped those words, he rose directly to his feet. Without wasting any more time arguing with Vice President Cui, he simply left the hospital.
Of course, he had barely eaten anything, and afterward he had thrown it all up. His stomach was starving now.

They traveled by day and hid by night. After three days, they reached Tomorrow City, roughly fifty li from Pengcheng.
The sight stabbed deep into her heart. Afraid that Zhou Xun would discover her and wound her pride, she withdrew her foot before giving him the chance to notice.
Those were all words she had never heard before, but after the system explained them, she was able to understand them quite well.
With the first firecracker of New Year’s Eve, the entire capital became immersed in the joy of the festival.
Zero Four Four knew what Yue Luo was worried about, but it felt that the thing she feared would not happen.
“Damn it, this is bad.” Zhao Mu’s expression changed when he sensed something. He had no time to keep showing off, and hurriedly released both hands, dropping from the basketball hoop.
“Tch. Look at the state he’s in. Do you really think this young lady would fancy him?” Zhao Ziwei immediately denied it with contempt when she heard that, though the wariness in her eyes did not seem to fade.
Although his situation looked far better than Xia Fan’s, and his defeat had not been particularly humiliating, a one-sided instant kill was still an instant kill. No matter how graceful the defeat, losing was losing.
The Wu Clan possessed immense strength and could move mountains and overturn seas with ease; the demon clan was no different. Thus, the moment the two clans encountered each other, they erupted into a full-scale battle. All across Mount Buzhou, blood mist billowed and the smoke of war filled the air.
“And what of it? Attack!” Dian Cheng swept his leopard-headed saber across his body and swung it viciously. The black mastiff beneath him let out a low growl and shot forward like a cannonball.
“Little Sister Ruiyao, what are you looking at?” Seeing Ruiyao staring down into the valley below, Yulong Feifei also walked to the edge of the cliff and asked.
Feng Yufei and Li Jiye each took turns recounting the painful events of that morning, while the other listened nearby in utter misery.
Had he been discovered? The thought flashed through Lin Canghai’s mind. But there was no time to think further. At that moment, he blurred into motion and dodged the bedclothes.
Just then, with a deep rumble, a white circle suddenly appeared on the ground, centered beneath the black boots at Luna’s feet. In the next instant, a transparent cylindrical radiance rose up and enveloped Luna like a barrier.
That was then; this is now! The ideas Sima Yi had just expressed had completely departed from his original intentions. That was the part Wang Yao found most impossible to accept.

Despite taking every precaution, they had still forgotten that Korea was the favorite destination of mainland Korean-pop fans, and that the Shilla Hotel was a place where affluent fans stayed frequently.
After being tripped, the young man scrambled up from the ground in a panic. He no longer dared run toward the crowd. Instead, he changed direction and fled to the side, worried that if he rejoined the others and was suddenly tripped again, he might never get back on his feet.
Liu Heng did not bother with further detours. He pressed down with one hand, signaling to the increasingly noisy leaders below not to let their reminiscing prevent them from hearing what he was saying.
The media and reporters clearly had no intention of putting all their eggs in one basket. After questioning Xu Hui, they immediately turned their attention to Wu Jing.
Under the control of her primordial spirit, Hua Mei had not completely lost her reason. At least, she had not yet gone so mad as to disregard everything. Thus, she could only suppress the instinctive impulses of her soul and continue attacking the insects.
Because, as far as they knew, Su Liuli, like Li Guangming, was an absolute lone wolf.
So when Bai Shiqiu made his move, he said to buy shares in the Red Star System. As a result, all the other stocks hit their upper trading limits at the same time.
The danger on Li Rong’s side had only just passed. Uncle Wang had not yet had time to look back at Li Xiangming and the other person, allowing the two of them to meet each other’s gaze, when trouble had already descended upon Li Xiangming and the others.
Several men who looked like hooligans appeared. Their goal was simply to force Auntie Zhang to move away as quickly as possible—demolition and redevelopment, in other words.
The King of the Underworld sat upon his throne, looking at Huo Linfei and Long Jian, whose heads were bowed. Then he turned toward Tai Lei and demanded an answer.
The elderly couple were clearly somewhat unused to such grandeur. They listened to Xu Yingrong’s arrangements with a mixture of apprehension and unease.
The Tiger and Leopard Cavalry possessed not only warhorses that stood half a head taller than ordinary steeds, but also soldiers of astonishing strength, superb martial skill, and consummate mastery of battle formations.
