Volume 1, Chapter 64: Women Look the Same When the Lights Are Out

Seeing him like this, Ying Nuo clearly wore a smile, yet his heart felt as though something was blocking it, bringing a profound sense of discomfort.

"What agreement was there between us? Stop talking nonsense." Compared to his ancestors, Hasegawa was undoubtedly a coward. Knowing that a wise man does not fight when the odds are against him, he hastened to deny the accusation.

These words were uttered with the utmost sincerity, as Gu Changfeng desperately wanted the other party to believe him so he could seize an opportunity to escape.

As for everything else, since her loyal dog was handling it, she could not be bothered to worry. Besides, he always managed to sort things out anyway.

Had I just been forcibly kissed? Gu Changfeng's mind went entirely blank. He had no idea where he was, only feeling that the fragrant, soft lips pressed against his were burning hot.

Amidst the astonished gazes of the crowd, Luo Qing realized that this challenge of the honored warrior was definitely not a matter of mere amusement.

No matter how muddy the pool or how mixed the dragons and fish might be, as long as this person remained in power, she would be able to retreat unscathed at any moment.

"Ahem, ahem, ahem," Han Yu cleared his throat repeatedly as he watched Shano keep holding his hand, thinking to himself, "Why is she acting like a child who has never seen the world, getting this happy over nothing?" Yet, seeing Shano so joyous, a smile inevitably bloomed on his face.

Following that was a monumental slaughter. The two sides engaged in a fierce battle lasting three full days and nights. The entire flat-topped mountain and its surroundings were littered with corpses and ran red with blood. Zhang Ziqiang, Long Wu, Wang Yaoda, the newly appointed commander of the Anfeng Army Liu Dongmang, along with four seventh-realm experts of the Yuan Dynasty such as Alibuge and Atu, fought so fiercely that the heavens and earth seemed to shatter.

Sophie thought to herself, "Tomorrow is Fan's last acupuncture session. How can I keep him here forever?" For a moment, she was gripped by panic and felt entirely at a loss.

Toward Wuming, the hearts of the five women always carried a lingering sense of guilt. This was a debt born from their past lives, as well as a bond inherited from them. What the future might hold in this lifetime was something they had never dared to imagine.

How could the gap be so vast? The massive disparity between herself and Wuming left Ye Tong doubting her very existence, feeling as though life itself had lost all meaning.

The kings of ancient Chinese chess were decided through fierce, genuine, and repeated duels of true skill, whereas the kings of ancient Japanese chess were not; some merely held hollow reputations.

Both sides of the vessel's body featured applied beast-mask handles biting rings. The front and back of the belly bore ruyi-shaped panels, within which were relief carvings of fish and dragons. A four-clawed dragon soared amidst colorful clouds while a carp leaped from the surging waves, carrying the auspicious symbolism of a fish leaping through the dragon gate to achieve unprecedented success.

Leng Wushuang buried her face in Yufan's shoulder, remaining completely motionless, yet her tears thoroughly soaked his clothes.

This sensation was wondrous beyond measure, deeply intoxicating to Huo Ziling. It felt as though within that space, he was the sole and unique creator, capable of bending even the very rules of existence.

"You don't need to worry so much either. Daozi and the others are not fools. No doubt they have already pieced together certain circumstances through various clues, and they certainly won't leak too much information concerning you," Ximen Duomei comforted.

Upon hearing this, Yang Huiru's eyes immediately widened. She straightened her posture stiffly in her office chair, and the tone of her voice grew urgent and pressing.

Not long after entering the valley, one could sense a festive atmosphere. Red lanterns and colored streamers adorned every corner, though inspections and searches by the disciples of the Red Flower Valley were naturally ubiquitous as well. With such a massive gathering, troublemakers were countless.

As soon as Lin Hao stepped into the dilapidated house, the old man immediately closed the heavy door. Wielding a single oil lamp, he paced back and forth across the cluttered room amidst the flickering candlelight.

In the surveillance room, Ajin watched Su沫 sleeping peacefully on the bed, genuinely exasperated by her attitude. Did she truly believe the madam was incapable of drastic action? If she became a useless abandoned chess piece, her fate would be sealed to a single tragic end.

Yuyun turned around and walked back toward the house on her own. "I won't disturb you two. Have a long chat." But after taking only two steps, her arm was caught.

However, positioned right between those two extremes, its comprehension difficulty was extraordinarily high—a dilemma Wu Kuang was currently facing.

Qin Tian's expression turned grave; Hua's Drifting Willow Movement Technique truly lived up to its legendary reputation, actually allowing her to evade his attack. Still, defeating him remained a distant prospect.

"Why is it me again?" Qin Aoqing feigned incomprehension, looking at Xiamel with an innocent gaze and asking.

Upon receiving the text message from Shanya, all the gloom in Nangong Ling's heart vanished instantly. Joy danced in his brows and eyes, making him look like a student rewarded with a piece of candy by his teacher—pride, smugness, and delight were all vividly displayed on his face.

At this moment, densely packed crowds of people were either sitting or standing across this massive flat ground. Stretched as far as the eye could see, there was nothing but a sea of heads.

Ye Yuanshan also recounted the recent events within the Ye family. With the island nation's troublemakers gone, the Evil Alliance had also retreated into total hibernation.

Wen Li lacked all strength and leaned against Huo Yuanchen's embrace, panting heavily. She felt as though she had lost the ability to think entirely, her mind reduced to a chaotic blur.

He wondered whether he should take these children to the capital city after the national finals concluded.

The next second, Lin Qingya walked straight up to Ye Xiaoyao and, without another word, dealt him a resounding slap across the face.

Coupled with the live-streaming channel of the number one post-80s father, Zhang Jian, and the channel of the number two post-90s father, Chen Feng.

As for the Gaocheng City division in Hebei Province, the championship-winning team came from a martial arts academy renowned throughout the entire province.

Teng Qing directly summoned over twenty spirit-realm great demons to completely encircle the courtyard, forbidding anyone from entering or leaving.

Huo Yuanchen noticed that several men passing by her kept casting intentional or unintentional glances toward her legs.

However, Danzo struck first with renewed force. With a soft *puff*, the Wind Release blade in his hand sliced through Maki's body, nearly cleaving him in two.

Xu Yi pouted slightly and shook his head. "I don't know." Even if he did, he wouldn't hand it over.

Rogozin paused his train of thought midway, but Arktoyev had already fully grasped his meaning. At present, China's type-two recoilless rifle was facing an uphill battle; the prototype equipment produced could not even match the performance of equivalent German weaponry from the Second World War.
