Volume 1 Chapter 29: The Persistent Little Puppy

The Chaos Heaven-Swallowing Technique began to circulate, drawing the surrounding spiritual energy toward him. The spiritual energy within his body gathered, dispersed, gathered, and dispersed in rhythm.

Three o'clock in the morning. Jiang Buyue opened his eyes, his face filled with excitement.

[Ding! Your...]

The remaining few men in black, realizing their operation had failed, stopped fighting and threw a smoke bomb onto the ground.

Based on Mu Danqiong’s understanding of Yan Zhiqing, even if Yan Zhiqing did not have the backing of the Yan family and were merely an ordinary aspiring actress, she would still choose to persevere, much like those veteran actors who remain obscure and only earn a familiar face by playing supporting roles in films and dramas.

"Excellent! You are truly the pride of my Shushan Sect, possessing the same spirit the sect leader had in her prime!" Dao Ming Zhenren nodded and smiled in satisfaction once more.

As she grew older and matured, becoming less willful, she grew increasingly charming.

Qin Zheng sat on the floor, the coastal villa’s floor radiating layers of chill. The cold kept his mind exceptionally clear, yet also exceptionally extreme. He had lost everything; he had not attained Yan Xi, and his legs were crippled. His life held no further hope.

She turned her head, her gaze sweeping wantonly over the man’s strikingly handsome face, from his smooth forehead to his sexy chin, finally affixing a label to this face in her heart.

"Senior Brother?" Linglong was stunned. The figure outside the window was actually her senior brother. Her eyes slid to the side; what was that dark, blurry object?

"He died in our bathroom right after finishing his tattoo?" I drew a sharp breath. It was no wonder An Qingzheng was so panicked.

Whoever she chose, the best and worst outcomes would be the same—one would be fulfilled, and the other would suffer.

The landline in the room suddenly rang. Yan Xi pondered; Yun Mo had been gone for three days. Could it be that he had returned?

"You haven't answered my question. Are your purple eyes natural?" Wu Yong pressed. This matter was far too important to him.

The two opposing forces left a hundred-zhang clearing in the center. Their respective leaders sat at the front, the atmosphere cold and grim.

"Let’s change weapons," Li Luoxuan said. Steam shrugged, indicating that it was an excellent suggestion. Li Luoxuan first picked up the heavy cavalry spear, while Steam chose a common military saber.

Meng Jingwen remembered the last time she and Qiang’er snuck out to play, heading to the streets below to buy her favorite Jinyun pastries.

Wu Yong secretly controlled the "Universe in a Fan" to open the map left behind by Lu Yuren. Unfortunately, it was a map drawn starting from Qianhun Island. For Wu Yong, who did not know the location of Qianhun Island, it was impossible to determine the route shown—under the current circumstances, the map was completely useless.

"I don't understand the true essence of gourmet food, but I understand why we must start investigating the anomalies of the Corpse Refining Array from Cuishan! And you, you don't!" Luo Peng retorted sarcastically.

In He Qingzheng's eyes, the brothers Liu Dong and Liu Chuan were merely parasites who wreaked havoc by relying on their family's reputation. If not for the backing of the Liu family, they would have died a hundred times over.

"Heh, if you want to go, you can try joining other sects. Some sects do not have an Emperor's Son of the corresponding level," Wuliang Tianzun suggested.

According to the Qiulong, the ancient powerhouses sealed by the major super-forces were sealed since before the ancient era, their life essence locked away in a state of suspended animation. No matter how the world changed, they remained immortal. But once the seal was broken, they would age and die with the passage of time.

After being paraded through the streets for a while, the condemned prisoners were brought outside Xiayuanli to be executed. Many commoners, mainly men, followed, wanting to see their enemies die with their own eyes.

Within the Ming occupied territories, many factions had surrendered to the People's Army, especially after the People's Army held several military exercises.

"The news of General Fang’s triumphant return and the rewards bestowed by Governor Lu has already spread across the streets. We are all old acquaintances, why bother putting on an act?" Wu Ping said with a loud laugh.

"Do you mean to say that the moon is also a pile of such matter, ignited and glowing? But who went to ignite it?" Xu An asked, puzzled.

Zhang Tao suddenly felt that this might be the simplest beauty in life! Having the person he loved prepare breakfast for him—this was something he wouldn't have dared to imagine before.

Upon Ma Chao’s words, everyone was shocked, none daring to act out. The great general was none other than Ma Teng, who had died not long ago! Ma Teng’s figure flickered as he shouted.

Outside, the world was frozen. Su Wan raised a water-based protective shield, keeping a constant temperature for herself and Fu Jingyu.

Lu Xun’s expression was cold as he issued orders. The generals received their commands and withdrew one after another. Meanwhile, Xiahou Yuan and Jiang Wei led their troops to a place several dozen miles outside Linxiang City. Following Jiang Wei’s advice, Xiahou Yuan guarded against an ambush by Wu troops, splitting half of his elite soldiers into a vanguard, while the rest protected the grain wagons.

After all, Qin Xuan had been circulating his spiritual energy since the beginning of the battle to prevent any mishaps, and with his current physical state, it was naturally becoming difficult to bear.

He was filled with admiration. Why had he never seen such a formidable expert in the East Sea before? Truly, masters hide among the common people. Seeming to have made a decision, he called his friends, telling them to find a silver Bugatti. As he spoke, his eyes flashed with anticipation.

Within the soil, with a crisp "pop," a round metallic lump suddenly burst from the ground, bouncing up to his waist.

As he was going out, he met the Crown Prince coming toward him. At such an age, married with children, tall and statuesque, with sword-like brows and star-like eyes.

Because the fish had to enter the net according to the plan, besides the bait of his five thousand heavy-armored cavalry, he needed the cooperation of this Haidongqing.

Even Li Tao was astonished. As the saying goes, clothes make the man; while true, the change in Li Tong was simply too drastic.
