“Uh... I’m not sure. But now that we’ve found this, it really is possible they went farther in. The weather is still good, so let’s hurry and search deeper while we can.” Yan Ruojiu stared at the slightly damaged hair ornament, growing worried as well.
Even though they had once been bandits, the expression they revealed when refusing Bai Qi’s offer of supplies had been utterly upright, with no trace of pretense.
The Wind Sword suddenly flashed from his hand. The Pupil Demon before him was not particularly powerful, and Pupil Demons had never been known for their combat strength. Fang Li was truly confident he could finish off his opponent in a short time.
By now, the contestants had been eliminated until only 1.2 million remained, with an average of eighty black crystals on each person.
That left Pan Dawei, Bai Qi, Fang Jinyuan... and Hu Haotian, whose lower back was in poor shape from constantly stabbing himself?
“Then let’s make it tomorrow afternoon, after school! I’ll call you.” Liu Yan turned her head away, unwilling to let the man see the tears in her eyes.
Fortunately, the demons had no intention of relying on the city walls and gates to defend the city. According to the intelligence, more than ten thousand demons had gathered in the center of Cinderella City, waiting for the human army to challenge them.
If one truly wished to know why the Border Guard of those days had won unanimous praise within the Royal Army, the answer was simple: they had earned it through solid, undeniable victories. No one could refuse to acknowledge them.
“I’ve heard about that. It was done by Nangong Xie, the eldest son of the Nangong household, specifically to spoil the wedding of the Third Young Master Jiang and the young lady of the Yan family.” The young man who had interrupted them continued in a mysterious tone.
The City of Aladdin had now been renamed Lamp God City, and three four-star heroes guarded it. Likewise, the occupied capitals of the other grand duchies and autonomous territories had become major cities of the Grand Xia Duchy.
A flower protector? Yun Xiang did not know why, but the thought suddenly sprang into her mind. Could it really be what she imagined?

That figure and posture alone drew a wave of cheers. Yun Xiang inwardly sighed, “People are born to desire beauty and food,” then quietly glanced toward Gu Mo.
If she ate one now, she would gain power. By then, so what if Wu Xin’er possessed no cultivation? She would no longer fear her.
When the class ended, You Sheng sat beside Tongtong and watched as she stared at the boy in front of them writing. Her eyes were filled with nothing but admiration.
The two of them involuntarily turned their tense gazes toward Jun Wuyou, afraid he might suddenly lose his temper.
The two exchanged a glance. Wu Zongwei shook her head slightly. To be honest, she had never even heard of anyone on this continent whose identity could be so outrageously exalted.
“For some people, such an ending may mean that life is no longer a form of sustenance, but instead becomes a kind of despair. For him, death might perhaps be a form of release.” Bu Fan thought for a moment. For some inexplicable reason, he recalled the faint sorrow that had always lingered in Lin Tian’s eyes.
Jun Feixue reproached Jun Yunqing as though lamenting through tears. Tears rolled continuously from the corners of her eyes like strings of pearls, making her appear indescribably frail and pitiable.
At the same time, for the prosperity of the Great Domain, the garrisons and trade of other powerful forces were inevitably indispensable.
Amid the clouds of dust flung into the air, Chu Xi’s figure was sent flying backward. Only after leaving more than a dozen deep footprints in the sand did he finally come to a stop.
Yu Rulong rose and turned toward the restroom. Seeing the empty seat behind her, she asked in confusion.
Everyone here understood what Del was like. He was immensely powerful, arrogant, and haughty. He was not merely contemptuous of outsiders—even toward the other extraordinary people in the base, he remained extremely overbearing. He was vindictive, frenzied, and warlike; yet the boss indulged him greatly, which only fueled his arrogance further.

Arrows filled the sky. The Yan Army’s Repeating Zhuge Crossbows were unrivaled in the world, and countless soldiers of the Ming Army fell beneath their bolts, plunging them into despair.
When the seventh tribulation thunder descended, Chen Lixin had already grown to fifty centimeters. The wolf’s belly had transformed into a human abdomen, while Cheng Lixin continued to devour great mouthfuls of flesh from the divine beast known as the Silver-Threaded Golden Serpent.
Thus, Li Yunxin and Lin Dong were both left speechless, and the two continued hurrying toward the inheritance grounds of the Thunder Spirit Supreme.
Chen Lixin suddenly understood. The martial techniques one learned were merely skills; they did not increase one’s innate strength. Before overwhelming power, every technique was nothing more than an ornate but useless pillow—just as, before absolute strength, every scheme and trick was utterly futile.
More than thirty years had now passed. The city had gradually flourished, becoming the largest metropolis in the southeastern region. Its splendor even surpassed that of Hanzhong City, which the Han ruler had deliberately built during this period.
After all, only true experts could survive beneath one’s command—and pose a serious threat to one’s own safety.
“Imperial Father, the Crown Prince may be unable to take over my military authority.” Li Shimin’s expression remained utterly calm as he spoke to Li Yuan.
In a private box at the opera house, Zhang Tianyi and Yijun sat together, looking down over the entire theater, both in exceptionally high spirits.
“That is true. Even a True Immortal is only at the Void Transformation realm. Naturally, one would be helpless against a demon lord of the Void Refinement realm.” Qian Ye spoke.
