Chapter 31: The Tiger Cub Brought by Mo Youli

Even if there was no personal connection, Ling Zhengdao held Xu Song, a leader of considerable reputation, in high regard.

Lin Shanshan climbed into the car with excitement, while Gu Xiaoya wore a complex expression, at a loss for words.

Taking advantage of the python’s intense thrashing after it was wounded, Kang Lai leapt forward and delivered a fierce strike, carving a massive gash into its body.

"That is not for you to decide," the Human Emperor declared, wasting no time as he forced the Sincerity Pill into Sima Zun’s mouth.

Upon hearing the Emperor mention the matter, Fu Heng realized that his mother had gone so far as to beg the Empress at the palace to press him into taking a concubine. Her stubbornness was truly staggering. Regrettably, his resolve remained unshaken, and he once again conveyed his refusal to the Emperor.

Shen Muran’s face was solemn. She was not pleased that Ling Zhengdao had become a warlord in Dilong; on the contrary, she was quite annoyed.

Xia Ming did not consider himself particularly patriotic, but upon hearing the phrase "Sick Man of East Asia," he was thoroughly incensed.

She could not help but cry, and Jin Rong held her quietly, letting her pour all her emotions out onto his coat.

"Don't worry, leave this to me!" Xia Ming waved his hand with a smile, looking entirely relaxed. However, this only made Tao Wansan anxious, as he deeply feared that Xia Ming might lose the match.

My heart is filled with profound grief. As the ruler of the world, I should not let my spirit be clouded by the sorrow of a child's passing. Yet Yonglian was my legitimate heir, and the plans for his succession were already set; he was different from my other sons. Let all rituals be conducted in accordance with the protocols for a Crown Prince.

The Wind-Fire Qilin beast walked over to Yun Jue and licked her palm, signaling that it was unharmed.

The murderous intent radiating from Shen Qingming and Museles was formidable; if they caught up to the giant duck, they would surely tear it to shreds.

"It’s autumn now, don’t catch a cold." Hearing that sneeze, Li Chu, who was carrying a glass of warm water, reached over and grabbed the suit jacket draped on the sofa.

Li Fuguo frowned and walked straight up to Lin Feng, seizing the two handguns hanging at his waist. He checked them and found both were fully loaded.

The azure ocean hid many perils beneath its calm surface, while the dense, light-starved green forest was fraught with even greater dangers.

Yet, anyone with a shred of humanity should not covet wealth or lose themselves in fleeting glory; instead, they should make a contribution, even if it requires "cutting off a finger to save the wrist," for the stability of the Yan Kingdom and the peace of its people.

Her tone and expression were sharper than usual, sounding unlike her at all.

Lian Zimo could hardly believe it. Why had no one discovered these dozen or so skeletons before?

Naturally, no one allowed Qian Li to leave; they feared that if she departed and something happened, Shen Qingming would be unable to reach enlightenment.

They didn't loot, kill, or hurl abuse; they simply trashed the Xu family's estate. The problem was that the head of the Xu family couldn't fight back, but standing by and watching was no solution either.

All sentient beings looked up at that supreme presence, forgetting their tasks in sheer astonishment.

Although Huang Gai had initially looked down on Guan Yu, after passing through these trials, he was thoroughly convinced of Guan Yu’s prowess.

With nowhere left to retreat, Qin Jiaojiao was forced back until she fell onto the bed, and Song Jingyu took the opportunity to press his body against hers.

There was no helping it; they were going after that object. Since the three of them had suddenly returned with something of that shape, it was hard for the others not to draw conclusions.

With Chu Xuange wielding the Star Wheel of the Heavens, he could block several waves of attacks, even those of a Heavenly God.

I watched with secret alarm. Hao Tai had not come to pick a fight on impulse; he had truly come to kill, having already considered the consequences.

Qin Jiaojiao wanted to tell him to get lost, but she ultimately held back. After whispering that she was fine, she fell into a terrified silence.

Bai Yu laughed heartily and then walked away as if nothing had happened, his heart only slightly surprised before returning to stillness.

Those who had run to the roof of the palace saw the Qingwu tribe kneeling and dared not accept their homage. Realizing they had just been saved by them, they quickly stepped aside.

Song Jingyu knocked on the door, his tone full of humility. A moment later, Qin Jiaojiao limped over to open it, her tear-stained, oval face etched with exhaustion.

Given Cai Buren’s lifespan, if he called it a "very long time," it must have been at least a millennium.

Just imagine, if they had found the Giant tribe earlier and told them the truth, they might have gathered a more formidable force and dealt the Long City army a bitter defeat.

The doctors dared not offend Yun Shangxue, for she seemed like someone not to be trifled with. After wheeling Jiang Wei into the operating room, they simply administered a sedative to let her sleep.

The handsome old man, Bai, couldn't help but laugh, only to be silenced by a glare from Yang Yi. The locksmith, however, was acting strangely; he had no interest in small talk and kept scanning his surroundings, as if he had detected some hidden danger.

It looked crystal clear yet flowed with green veins. The interior seemed to be in motion. I hurriedly picked up the ring to examine it closely. I couldn't make sense of it, but it was exquisite and beautiful.

"Perhaps you should ask that old geezer Cenarius about that question!" Sylvanas glanced at Zhao Yi with contempt.

"Domain of Absolute Cold!" Points of icy light descended toward Zhan Tian, seemingly devoid of killing intent. The primordial energy in the surroundings seemed to regain its vitality, no longer a trap set for Wang Long and Jiang Xue, but a balance struck between the Wujue Daoist and Zhan Tian.

"No problem." Jiang Wei looked at her with doting eyes, then pulled out a tissue and gently wiped the cream from the corner of her mouth.

As the laws infused into her, everything returned to calm. Huopaolan began to emit faint, adorable snores, leaving Zhao Yi both amused and helpless.

"No, thank you. I can do it myself." Zhuang Qing shook her head; Huo Ting had already helped her enough.

This was the transformation the Violet Thunder Bead underwent after absorbing a vast amount of origin crystals. Previously, the bead only absorbed power when crystals were nearby, but now it could automatically draw in the energy of any crystals in the vicinity.

Flod immediately let his arms hang limp. His claws reached backward, struggling to see what kind of blade could be sharp enough to pierce his transformed body in a single strike.
