Volume 1, Chapter 42: Want to compete with me? Go to hell.

The baby ran over to Li An'an and asked. She had already changed into her kindergarten uniform, and her hair was tied into a ponytail, revealing her chubby face and big eyes.

Struck by this tremendous force, the lamp changed direction and fell to the side, narrowly missing the two children, while Master Dog's body rolled across the ground a few times before finally coming to a stop.

By the time he returned from Ling Che's place, it was already evening. Ye Chen instructed Zhou Hua not to come over to call for him tomorrow, and then began a brief period of seclusion.

The self-healing nature of a vampire constitution essentially works by first consuming a portion of life force to heal injuries, and then passively recovering health through its own powerful automatic regeneration, conceptually similar to the idea of a perpetual motion machine.

A high-ranking subordinate appeared. Although he was not the strongest here, he was already very close to the strongest ones.

"No need, free medical consultation, voluntary practice. You should go buy your medicine early, and you can take a dose tonight," Lin Fan said, waving his hand.

Jiang Yun already knew some of the situation, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to invite him to handle it, but he hadn't expected the situation to be this dire. It seemed that what he knew had been somewhat concealed.

"Aren't Li Hao and Lu Qian the same? And as far as I know, the guest rooms on their side are all empty," Ye Chen said indifferently.

The situation had both good and bad aspects. Yomogawa Ayame's condition was still fairly decent, and she didn't seem to have suffered. However, some people were in terrible shape, with faces as pale as paper and eyes tightly closed, leaning against the wall. If not for the slight rise and fall of their chests proving they were still alive, at a glance they would be indistinguishable from the dead.

She was extremely weak at this moment and had been pushing herself to keep from collapsing. Because she had spent too much time in her unrestricted state, the exertion was massive, and she was now in urgent need of deep sleep and rest.

Yue Zhong was not clear on what would happen in the Land of Inheritance. He certainly did not want Sibika to get there first and seize control of this glorious warship.

"Anyalita." After a brief pause, the name spoken was this one. An Xiayi sighed inwardly in her heart; since she had already come here, the former An Xiayi no longer existed, and from this moment on, there was only Anyalita.

Lu Su possessed outstanding abilities; unlike Sun Quan, he would not harbor wishful thinking when trying to fathom the upcoming war.

Having said this, Zhang Li also hurried after Yue Zhong in the direction he had gone. In this Changguang Village, not being by Yue Zhong's side left her completely devoid of any sense of security.

Having narrowly escaped Yue Zhong's fatal strike, the three surviving fifth-order Xenomorphs cast a deep, lingering glance at Yue Zhong, twisted their bodies, flashed, and vanished directly into the street.

"How is it?" Chu Yanlan opened her eyes, her demeanor unchanged from usual, and calmly asked the hazy, glowing figure.

Of course, one of the reasons she agreed was that this matter was not particularly difficult; in fact, for Jin Lingruo, it was merely a trivial effort.

Rather than saying that technology was the stumbling block for forward-swept wings, it would be more accurate to say that materials and structural integrity were the true obstacles, as structural divergence and stealth issues continually plagued the development of forward-swept wings.

In fact, within the brief span of less than ten seconds while Medea and Medusa coordinated to take down a living dragon, nearly half of the magical dragons had been slaughtered, instantly leaving the battlefield much more empty.

Wang Yang smiled at them, then turned and walked away holding his newspaper. Looking towards the south, he could see the lower city and the World Trade Center twin towers, the tallest buildings in all of New York. Suddenly, he frowned in puzzlement—was that an airplane flying at a low altitude?

"Guo Qian, you clearly know that you don't truly love me. I am merely a regret lingering in your heart. Although regret weighs heavily, I feel it shouldn't reach the point of an obsession." She picked up a piece of wood and gently pushed it into the firebox. A tongue of flame leaped up a couple of feet with a crackle.

Unpredictable are the winds and clouds of fate; on the second day of the second month, another painful day descended upon the older uncle. There was nothing particularly unusual about that morning, except for an extra phone call. The elder sister went to the telephone booth nearby to answer a call—it was from her brother-in-law, saying that their father had passed away. The older uncle and his sister immediately boarded a bus to hurry back to their hometown.

San Ye had also driven there, following behind the Land Cruiser and heading towards the public security bureau. Xu Beijiang sat in the same car with Shanwa, and of course, Wang Haiyan was in the car as well.

Frankly speaking, Su Xiu had a greater sense of responsibility than Su Qing, worrying far more about her sisters. This was evident from the fact that after dropping out of school, she didn't complain while working the fields to earn work points.

The third-order zombie was provoked by Zheng Shiqiang's action. The zombie that had been struck on the back of the hand directly plunged its ten fingers straight into flesh and blood. Amidst the victim's agonizing screams, several other zombies swarmed forward and began tearing into the flesh of his limbs.

The Great Elder smiled. "Can you represent the stance of the human race? Let alone you, even if all of you families harboring ulterior motives came together, I wouldn't take you seriously." With that, his aura climbed to its absolute peak, faintly on the verge of breaking through the eighth order to reach the Undying Realm.

Zhao Zhenyu had been trapped here for a very long time, and trapped with him was Mo Yan. The secret chamber was quite large, surrounded entirely by walls. Some of the brownish-yellow walls were already covered in creeping vines; because the walls were constantly nourished by moisture, the vines thrived, with the largest ones growing as thick as a human thigh.

Hearing this, Helan Zhiyuan felt a trace of disbelief. Since when did her older sister, who always walked with her head bowed and specifically sought out shadows, acquire such an aura?

Harboring her questions, she began her slow walk down the mountain as the sun set in the west. Egrets flew across the sky, and the colorful sunset clouds were as thick as splashed ink. Because the nether-energy was soaring to the heavens, it completely dispelled any notion Mao Leyan might have had to pause and appreciate the scenery.

"Sister? Eldest sister?" Before the two of them even reached the fifth sister's classroom, the fifth sister, having been tipped off in advance, ran out to greet them herself.

"Then you had better mentally prepare yourself, otherwise if you play with fire and burn yourself, you might not be able to escape the calamity," Lin Feng said leisurely.

Looking down at the ground ahead of her, An Ke puffed out her cheeks and muttered to herself internally, though in reality, she had no idea what she was even muttering about.

"Fine, forget it. That's all from many years ago," the Corpse King said, waving his hand magnanimously.

"Awooo~~!" Delighted to see its owner, Baozi continuously wagged its tail, trying to squeeze through the mesh of crystal spikes. Anyway, the gaps between these threads were wider than its chubby body.

"Many thanks~~," An Ke smiled as she took over the teacup from which most of the tea had spilled. After taking a sip, her expression froze.

He Jingjun nodded and said, "When you see the superior later, judge for yourself what should and shouldn't be said. That's all I can do to help you."

"Of course. After all, this is our first date." Jiang Nan grinned and said.
