As the seconds ticked by, Su Ji was the first to recover. She appeared full of vigor; remarkably, this recovery had led to a breakthrough, bringing her to the pinnacle of the Martial Sect realm. Her aura was now vast and imposing—truly a case of surviving a great disaster to find one's fortune.

Perhaps, if one looks at it charitably, for wealthy scions like Xi Zique and Gu Weixian, the mindset of "they did it because they felt like it" is a common behavior. Even if they inadvertently hurt someone, it is not unreasonable to call it an unintentional slight.

An elderly woman with hair as white as snow sat on a low stool in front of the thatched cottage, soaking up the sun. She spotted the children and began to speak to them.

Perhaps out of guilt for having caused his injury, or perhaps moved by his sincerity, she found that deep down, she no longer felt such strong resistance toward him.

If Yue Qingyao truly had a change of heart and found someone better than him, Yun Lin felt that he would be able to offer her his sincere blessings when the time came.

Genes began to boil, and memories buried deep within the bloodline surged into everyone's hearts.

Every day of delay would be a regret. Xu Yinyin planned to make a list first thing tomorrow morning and have Zhu Cheng and the others run errands to try their luck.

Yang You broke into a cold sweat, for Xia Ze was twirling three golden talismans identical to the ones used before.

Hearing Lin Jingyu's words, Zhang Ying sat before a second-hand table bought from outside, fussing back and forth with his work uniform.

Suddenly, a mysterious, thick black mist surged across the mountains and plains, sweeping toward them and blotting out the sky. Within the mist, one could faintly discern some terrifying, unknown entity churning and roiling.

"It is passable." He couldn't say he loved it, but he wasn't annoyed by it either; after all, it was a gesture of good intentions.

The more he interacted with him, the more Huang Zheng realized that this Tian Xu was not a stutterer when speaking with people he knew well. His mind was simple, but he was as stubborn as a mule; once he set his mind on something, not even ten oxen could pull him back.

Upon hearing this, the man was visibly excited and immediately produced a thousand taels in silver, declaring with absolute certainty that as long as it could be done, he could afford the price.

Shen Kuo was currently working as a mercenary abroad and had only just rushed back after learning about the affairs of the Shen family.

As for how much money had been earned, he had known before, but now, he could no longer say for sure.

"No, I lay in bed very early, thinking about moving the shop, tossing and turning, unable to sleep." Thinking that in a few days, the dream he had painstakingly built would be destroyed by his own hands, Lu Feng felt an indescribable pain in his heart. Forget it, I have done my best; I must leave everything to fate.

Upon hearing this, Mi Zhu’s heart sank abruptly: This Young Master Yuan asked me to cede two counties last time to let General Zuo obtain a gold mine worth hundreds of millions. This time, he wouldn't be asking Xuzhou to cede somewhere else, would he?

Xiao Yi's eyes lit up instantly. In the heat of battle, the role of weaponry is decisive. With these long-range repeating crossbows, he could suppress the opponent with overwhelming force. Taken by surprise, they would certainly be able to defend Pangu Pass, earn merit, and consolidate the passive situation of the Xiao family.

To avoid worrying about the safety of those people, Huang Zheng, like Li, spent his days tidying the house, gathering firewood, and burning it to pass the time. By the third day, the dampness in the room had been cleared, the quilts had been remade, and the items from the old "Yang House" had been gradually moved over, yet there was still no news from the mountain.

While operating the fishing boat, his nerves had been constantly on edge. Now that the waves had subsided, he slumped into the pilot's chair and lit a cigarette unconsciously, only to stop when he saw the "No Smoking" sign in the cabin.

Having beaten Yuan Shu and won the beauty, Dong Zhuo was in high spirits. Even when he received word that night from a spy about the gathering at the Yuan mansion, he threw it to the back of his mind. Moreover, he even sent someone specifically to the Yuan mansion to offer an inexplicably strange thank-you to Yuan Shu, which terrified him to the core.

Hearing this, Hasan couldn't help but feel embarrassed and immediately said modestly, "What are you talking about? Hehe." However, the pride in his words was clear to me.

"Only you love to join in the fun. Go ahead; if you feel envious after seeing it, just ask Chen Jun to propose to you again!" Fu Rongxi said this quite seriously, with no hint of a joke.

"You transferred out of 'Shenglan' without a word back then. I didn't expect you to come to 'Gongming'." Mi Xue curled her lips. She had tried to find out where Ouyang Yingqi had gone at the time, but she couldn't find out anything. It had made her sad for quite a while.

After reading it, Andy was very surprised. He hadn't expected a level limit. Ten level 30 players would appear; although it would take a few weeks to reach that, it was nothing.

The moment the Evil Demon King finished speaking, blood-colored mist immediately surged from both the sky and the ground.

"General." Ling Bao was somewhat startled. He also knew that when morale was low, one should offer heavy rewards to inspire it, but with Dong Zhuo absent, he dared not make such grand promises as Taishi Ci had. He had been agonizing over this just now.

Deadly Instinct, passive skill, no level. Possesses the instinct to find an enemy's fatal weakness through superior insight, increasing critical strike rate by 10%.

"I want to talk to you." Fu Rongxi's cold and dismissive gaze made Lu Ziqian wake up suddenly. He figured that Fu Rongxi must have guessed something.

Seeing that Zhang San was strong and sturdy and fearing his companion would suffer, the fat Taoist also jumped over, preparing to attack Zhang San together. Under the two-pronged attack, Zhang San took several hits. At this moment, Zhang Liang said, "If we are going to fight, it should be fair. Let’s play one-on-one." After saying this, he also stepped forward to face the fat Taoist.

Occasionally, whispers could be heard, mostly discussing which chef had the best chance of winning or which dish looked good.

Under the golden sunlight, a tall and upright figure appeared before the city gate. The dazzling sun seemed to serve as a backdrop for him. From a distance, he looked like a deity descended from the heavens. At that moment, all the brilliance in the world paled in comparison to his arrival, willingly becoming his foil.
