At last, with more than twenty thousand assassins joining the fray and several thousand of our enemies slaughtered, the Azure Dragon Guild had realized that some things simply could not be done.
“How do you intend to deal with her?” Tearstains covered Chuxiu’s cheeks as she gazed at Shen Yu with tearful eyes, looking utterly pitiful and moving.
The moment I took hold of the staff, a cool sensation swept through my entire body. It felt wonderfully comfortable.
“How can you say that...? How can you say that...?” She stumbled backward several steps and struck the dressing table. Covering her mouth with both hands, she stared at Constantine in disbelief, his face wearing an expression that seemed to say, I am only doing this for your own good. Suddenly, Zatanna lowered her hands, blue light gradually kindling in her eyes as she began to chant under her breath.
Gu Shuishui had suffered a serious illness and had never found the chance to have any fun. Gu Yangyang was determined to take him out for a trip before school began.
Ye Qian wanted the number plate in Fang Cheng’s possession. Hearing Li Yao say this, she hesitated briefly before sitting down lightly opposite them.
“Actually, you have misunderstood Lady Chuxiu. I was the one who spread her bad reputation. First, it was to divert the world’s attention from this struggle for the succession; second, it was also meant to teach her a lesson,” said Prince Mu, hoping to change Nie Peixiao’s opinion of Chuxiu.
“Aren’t you the same? You’re a grown man—could you really cook? You must simply be far too confident in your culinary skills. I might believe you if you said you could boil instant noodles,” Han Menglu said.
Although I hated him somewhat, after learning the truth of the matter, I forgave him in my heart.
The wind was strong outside, and after playing there for a while, they had begun to feel chilly. Li Bai therefore decided to take Chenchen back to the place where they were gathered.
“There’s nothing to explain. You beast, taking advantage of someone in distress—I’ll kill you...” Cixiang cursed hoarsely, tears welling in her eyes.
“A formation? Idiot, are you joking? If they knew how to set up formations, then I, Old Sha, could become an immortal,” Sha Duotian said. He did not believe it at all. These bees were certainly strange, but they could not possibly arrange a formation.
Yet the girls were all kind and considerate. They had never expected too much, and this alone was enough to leave them completely satisfied.
A tremendous force of providence, like a river, poured into Ji Feng’s body, seemingly intent on bursting him apart.

“Old Sha, that’s a nail gun, just in case,” Shen Zhangtian said, dodging the corpse chrysalis’s attack and speaking during the brief opening.
Granny Cao had originally been thoroughly enjoying the lively atmosphere of the dance floor, but now that it had been ruined, her spirits instantly sank.
The experts of the Seven-Family Alliance felt their hearts turn cold and their scalps prickle. Facing so many talismans was like confronting hundreds of experts at the Divine Realm simultaneously. How were they supposed to fight this?
“Idiot, I’m not deaf. Of course I heard them. Unless you know who they are?” Sha Dutian said unhappily. He had been the most miserable of them all just moments before.
When Emperor Jun heard the Jade Emperor’s words, a cold glint flashed through his eyes. Emperor Jun had originally intended to weaken the Heavenly Court’s momentum, but the Jade Emperor had unexpectedly acted with such decisiveness, even declaring, “If we do not prevail, I shall slit my own throat at the Southern Heaven Gate and apologize to all the immortals,” thereby bolstering his side’s morale.
A very dangerous green-named scarecrow. After transforming, its power becomes extraordinarily formidable. One particular quest features three Black Whirlwind Scarecrows.
“Spirit-Nurturing Water!” Nine-Colored was the first to recognize it. Strange light blossomed in his eyes, and he threw back his head and laughed loudly.
“Take it if you dare. If you don’t, then get lost,” Mu Xia said with a faint, mocking smile. She had yielded time and again, hoping for a fair and constructive competition.
His strength was already somewhat inferior to that of Gongsun Li. Coupled with Gongsun Li’s sudden attack, Lu Tong felt an overwhelming force surge toward him the instant their palms collided.
Judging from Old Zhu’s tone—or rather, from Shunzi’s analysis—the porcelain market would not undergo any major changes over the next few years.
Then his disciple’s words sent him off to find another corner in which to shut himself away, and he stopped taking the initiative to observe events in the real world. After all, he had intended to let this disciple of his suffer a proper setback, so that she would understand that sometimes one could not resolve everything by relying on oneself alone.
Before she could say anything, Xiao Yue had already walked up to her and glanced sideways at the wedding gown and other items spread across the table.
The doctor told me that the old woman was frail, and the fall had caused blood to accumulate inside her skull. She needed surgery immediately.
As for Zhu Qian, she flatly claimed that she did not know her at all. Her tone was so firm and her attitude so unambiguous that she did not appear to be pretending.

Only then did Lin Mu realize that the Azure Cloud Sect and the Heavenly Martial Sect allowed their disciples to enter the secret realm and search for cultivation resources once they had located it. They merely wanted to send some people inside as cannon fodder, using them to find a way to break through.
Lixiang glanced at Sang Ziyi on the ground, feeling somewhat distressed, but she hardened her heart and nodded at the greasy-looking man.
That night, Wu Dalang slept deeply and soundly. In his dreams, he smelled waves of fragrant air and felt utterly at ease. When he rose the next morning, the Taoist had vanished without a trace. Before him sat four steamed buns, a bowl of beef noodles, several sesame cakes, and the food from the previous day, all completely untouched.
At 8:45, a white sedan approached from the distance. The moment it entered the grounds of Qifeng Temple, Eva fixed her attention on it. The moon saw the car as well.
This slick-faced young man was actually far more intelligent than he appeared. Given time, he would surely become Vermilion’s right-hand man.
“The Dark Dragon?! He didn’t do anything to you, did he?” Tina immediately grew tense and hurriedly reached out to examine her husband’s body.
Naturally, the four gnawing hounds had no idea what he was talking about. After exchanging glances, they pounced forward in unison.
I was slightly surprised. Shu Ying, Bi Zhi, and the others in the room had always been my trusted confidantes; I had never concealed even something as important as my taking another bride’s place.
Just as I was thinking this, I heard a hurried succession of footsteps approaching from afar. Before long, Shu Ying came running in, her face flushed.
A trace of regret arose in Chen Zui’s heart. If he had known this would happen, he would have simply waited for Eva, Sophie, and the others to return. Could all of us really be doomed to die here today?
As he spoke, he turned his head to look at me. The icy hardness in his eyes seemed to be reminding me of what he had said earlier.
The sudden darkness filled the poisoning physician with terror. It was as though a horrifying beast lurked within the shadows, staring fixedly at him. He had only just begun circulating his soul power to defend himself when a sharp beam of finger-force pierced through the darkness, instantly punching through his throat and taking his life.
