Page (1/3)
Her beautiful eyes had no focus, so dim and hollow that they seemed utterly empty. Yet whenever she smiled, the entire room seemed suddenly filled with fragrance, leaving everyone both moved and full of regret.
Jiang Manxin reached out with her delicate hand, like a demonic claw capable of capturing the hearts of every man in the world. A single touch from her was enough to make the whole body go weak with ecstasy.
After Qi Lanshan unleashed his full strength, his power became terrifying. Violent winds flowed freely through his hands, dispersing most of Niu Dingtian’s immense force. Had Niu Dingtian not possessed the power of vibration, he might not have been able to injure Qi Lanshan at all.
“It’s very simple. I can help you obtain the inheritance, but you must work for me for two years. Once those two years are over, you may leave.” Lu Yu stared at the Poison Scorpion as he spoke.
Yet after seeing his wretched condition, how could anyone dare approach him? Who knew whether the fluid on his body was still contagious? Everyone retreated far away, watching helplessly as he scratched his own skin raw before collapsing motionless onto the ground.
Thus, a great battle broke out. In the end, the final king successfully gathered all seven masks and activated the summoning formation, making a wish for immortality. Ultimately, that king transformed into a monster made of black mist, giving rise to the legend of the River of Black Mist and the Dread King, Dark River.
His face burned with embarrassment. After all, he was a member of the Li family, yet he had shown not the slightest courtesy or decorum. It was mortifying.
Attending university had always been Li Huaifeng’s dream—a dream that had now become a regret.
Ye Feifei had never felt that way before, but ever since she signed with Sunshine and became Bei Lingfeng’s heavily promoted successor as the company’s leading female star, that feeling had grown especially intense.
The police and ambulances arrived, and the injured had already been treated. Wu Xi, Li Yunni, and Sun Hongying left at once.
He had no courage to face the Demon Lord, much less attack him. At that moment, the last trace of courage he possessed was only enough to move his legs and flee in the opposite direction.
Mai Qianqin said nothing. In truth, her thoughts were much the same as Wei Quan’s; she too merely believed that the other side had seen through their formation.
The young man was overjoyed. Since he had seen Zhu Zhen casually repay thirty taels of silver for him that day, he had guessed that Zhu Zhen must be very wealthy. His own finances had recently become desperately strained, so he took the risk of bringing out this object, hoping to sell it to Zhu Zhen.

“It’s about the Bright Lord.” Gu Yan spoke calmly, then immediately watched his master’s expression. As expected, the master’s face changed in an instant. Situ Leiming already knew about the Dark Lord, and now the Bright Lord had finally appeared as well.
When Abatai saw Zhou Yun fleeing into the Huibaoling Valley, where Shuotuo had previously been ambushed and lost his troops, he suspected a trap and ordered Shuotuo to abandon the pursuit.
After Li Chaotu, Zhu Liang, Jiang Jian, and Liu Bin had left, Zhu Zhen took Zhou Yun to survey the terrain around Zaozhuang.
The roads were in terrible condition. After walking for several minutes, Du Xiaoyu finally stopped in front of a somewhat dilapidated house. He glanced at it, then walked toward another house nearby.
Zhu Zhen smiled. “It’s good that you can see things this way. Let me give you a warning in advance: I intend to popularize the vernacular in the future, so whenever you have time, pay more attention to it. Anyone talented in this area should be nurtured properly. When the time comes, we won’t be as constrained as we are now.”
As they drew closer and closer to the place where the mighty expert had fallen, a cold and sinister pressure suddenly appeared, enveloping the earth. An eerie zombie covered in red hair and dressed in a Daoist robe appeared before Xu Wen.
Jue Fan had already brought a large force with him. Taking advantage of Mo Yu’s unpreparedness, he snatched the Immortal-Commanding Token from his hands. The scene instantly descended into chaos, and everyone stared helplessly at Mo Yu, waiting for his orders.
Shangguan Ji could not reach them in time. By then, Jue Fan had already arrived before Changle, leaving behind a string of afterimages. His powerful palm strike cleaved through the air, and the blade of his hand came crashing down.
“What!” Moonlight Gale was stabbed in the chest by the blade behind him, its edge wrapped in wind-natured chakra. Blood immediately spurted out. Moonlight Gale coughed as he vomited a mouthful of blood. Maki released his grip, and Moonlight Gale collapsed to the ground.
Su Xue immediately helped the Fatty choose the Supreme Immortal Taiyi. Against a lineup that included Li Bai, Taiyi’s ultimate ability could protect a critically wounded ally at the crucial moment, allowing him to revive after being killed by Li Bai’s full ultimate combo.
“Hey, darling, what are you thinking about? Why do you look so lovestruck?” Golden-haired Guang knocked on Ying Lei’s desk.
“I’m not going to wait for you.” Charlotte sighed helplessly and turned toward the school gate. After taking a few steps, however, he stopped and quietly gazed up at the overcast sky.
“Ruoling, as long as you’re all right—as long as you’re all right, I was so afraid…” Feng Ling had not finished speaking when Alice covered his mouth.

“What I mean is, have you cleaned up your mess? Spending more money doesn’t matter. I only want everyone who knows about it to disappear forever.” Lu Zihao had always been meticulous in everything he did.
Liu Buhan and Luo Qiushen exchanged a glance before silently withdrawing. Only Xu Wen remained in the main hall of the Council of Elders.
The ladies who had come to pay their respects had no serious business. They merely wanted to become familiar faces in her presence.
“You’re certainly shameless—to still be lying at a time like this! Your character is abominable. Get out!” The senior disciple at the temple gate dragged the young man to the entrance, threw him outside, and called for his family at the same time.
“Hahaha, excellent! Come on!” Shen Lun burst into laughter. He too circulated his profound technique, and the vital energy within him rose layer by layer, his vast momentum surging forward without pause.
“Father!” The tenderness Old Guo showed toward him warmed Guo Jiaxing’s heart, leaving him unable to speak through his tears.
If she had grown thin from a cold, there would have been nothing unusual about it. As long as the matter did not become serious, she could simply remain in the palace and recover. But if she had fallen ill because she could not eat, there had to be a reason. In such circumstances, the imperial physicians would never help conceal the truth.
A collective gasp rose from the surroundings. Even those with the poorest judgment could sense the might of the Horse Saber Gang.
The Crown Prince awoke from his afternoon nap and was brought into the hall by the palace attendants. Though he was only three years old, he walked with steady steps and pushed away the attendants’ hands, refusing to be supported.
On ordinary days, the women of the Zhao family would rise early to cook the meals, prepare the pigs’ feed, and sweep the entire courtyard clean.
