Volume 1, Chapter 56: Anti-Vice Operation
Yewen leaned against the couch, looking exhausted. With her brows and eyes lowered as if deep in thought, her fingers gently stroked her exquisite embroidered cuffs.
Tang Han hurriedly supported her, helping her sit down on a chair. He then performed a series of manipulations on her head, channeling Profound Heaven True Qi into her to calm her restless meridians.
"Alright, alright, that's enough." Since the marriage was already a settled matter, picking on his clothes now would simply seem too overly pretentious.
Seeing Yuru's cultivation power to be so formidable, the Earth Demon could not help but be stunned. He could escape by himself if he wanted to, but taking everyone else along with him was beyond his capability. Fortunately, I am not her enemy, the Earth Demon thought to himself with a silent sense of relief.
Yet, he could not just stand by and watch Yunmo suffer endless harm on his account. In less than a year of being with him, she had known nothing but injuries. Following him seemed to bring her nothing but pain.
Mingtian relived the dream he had just experienced, swallowing hard several times. The sensation of being on the verge of death in the dream, along with the sorrow and anger of witnessing his companions perish, felt so immersive and unforgettable.
Three years later, upon the high platform in the center of Chendu of the Human Clan, two statues of sages and three statues of the Human Ancestors still stood firmly. However, beside the Human Ancestors, the statue of Fuxi had now been added.
"Well, after chatting nonsense for so long, are we finally going to fight?" While Uchiha Itachi and Sasuke still had the leisure to banter here, Uchiha Yan was growing somewhat impatient from waiting.
Anyi returned to Marine Headquarters rather swiftly. As soon as he stepped inside, he saw nearly every senior Marine official present, and all of them seemed to be waiting specifically for him.
Anyi looked at the terrifyingly cut pieces of minced meat scattered around him. True, treating such things as mere ingredients might elicit amazement, but when applied to a human being, it was not a pleasant sight at all, evoking only terror.
He tremblingly raised his hand, pointing at the white-robed figure with an expression as if he had just seen a ghost.
Lieutenant Commander Yamamoto, who was in the midst of turning around, caught three bullets in rapid succession before he could take any precautions. His entire body was riddled with bloody holes, and letting out a few muffled grunts, he collapsed face-first onto the ground and breathed his last.
A single glance told him that among these Blood Fiend Stones, there was virtually nothing worth looking at. Even the rare few that contained exotic treasures were of such abysmal quality that they failed to spark even the slightest desire in Xu Ruogu to devour them.
Though his identity remained unknown, whatever Loki had been doing seemed to be immensely connected to these sticky notes.
With a deafening crash, Broly smashed straight through the house, and amidst a mighty, roaring momentum, flew toward the direction where Son Gohan was located.
Although it had been somewhat dangerous and he had almost been discovered, he had finally managed to unearth some clues and achieve a breakthrough.
Jiang Yin, the Sect Master of the Yixie Sect, calmed himself and reached out with a grab. A flying talisman rose from an elder's hand and fell into his palm; then, with a surge of true essence, the talisman shattered into glittering fluorescent light, and a projection appeared not far away.
Dabura knocked Helis flying and instantly lunged in front of Kibito. He flashed a cruel smile at the startled Kibito, and then reached his hand out right before him.
The vast majority of public opinion was pessimistic, with most people viewing the matter unfavorably. The facts lay plain before them: whether in terms of regional advantages, economic conditions, transportation links, or industrial foundation, Yidong still lagged far behind its competitors by a considerable margin.
"Yes, I am Chunin Inoue Goro, responsible for covert reconnaissance in this vicinity. Three days ago, two people wearing the cloaks of the Akatsuki organization passed by. Their appearances matched the wanted posters issued by the village precisely, so I sent word back to the village." After listening, the five of them found nothing amiss.
"Hahahaha! Hahahaha! Revenge... Revenge for a single sword strike? Rongqing! You know very well what you owe me... But what you owe me is far more than just a sword!" Lin You shouted angrily toward the sky, her left fingernail lightly slashing across her right hand, leaving blood streaming down.
This Inspector Tong clearly intended to pin all the responsibility onto Fang Shaoyun, which was why Fang Shaoyun argued his case so strenuously, purely to mitigate his suspicion of failing to report what he knew.
"Big brother, why didn't you mention such an important matter?" The Second Hokage looked at the First Hokage with indignation.
Tina turned her head and squatted on a tree branch. Kanna flew over and stood beside her, swaying slightly until even the branch trembled.
I haven't read the contents of that final sentence, so please delete them after you finish reading.
With a rustle, the bathroom door was pulled open. She turned her head and looked at Han Yixiang, who was wrapped entirely in a bath towel, smiling even more tenderly. Yet the surging desire in her eyes was enough to instill fear.
"Alright, alright, hurry on inside. Watch your step, there's water on the floor," Field called out to everyone, signaling Ginny to go straight to the Great Hall and dry off.
The audience members cared not a whit whether you were a five-star master chef; they simply ignored such titles. If you dared to offend the audience, they would certainly show you no courtesy.
"Bureau Chief Wei's arrival is a great honor. Does this mean you have already investigated whether that ring has any problems?" Qiu Yang asked.
Along the way, any creature that posed even a slight potential threat was relentlessly gunned down by them.
"Elder, I have brought Brother Chu here!" Pu Kong pressed his palms together and spoke respectfully toward the dark cyan Buddha.
Although Gu Fan and Lin Peiyun had both been transported into the game scenario at that moment, neither of them managed to gain freedom of action immediately; instead, they were immobilized right where they stood.
Having said that, Li Yunfan walked past the rather ridiculously styled Lushan and left the cinema directly.
"Then why tell me this now?" If Shaosi had not spoken of it, Ivan would have had no way of knowing.
At this moment, Luo Chen's figure appeared imposing and majestic, surrounded by an aura of terror and mystery. He raised his head slightly, his angry eyes flashing with an intensely sharp glint.
Subsequently, twenty armored guards in black stood in a single file, holding paper kites and running against the wind. As they ran, they slowly let out the strings in their hands.
With no natural predators, there was a specific breed of dragons raised purely for mating. They never had to worry about food or drink, and even the mosquitoes in the dragon sheds were driven away by people using mosquito-repelling herbs.
His pair of eyes seemed to contain two black jade stones, and his handsome face, coupled with an icy yet clear gaze, exuded an irresistible aura of detachment.
One could easily imagine just how formidable the illusions of the Ryuchidong were; they could undoubtedly achieve a degree of realism capable of passing off the fake as genuine. While they might lack the sheer offensive power of Uchiha's Mangekyo, they likely surpassed it in terms of sheer deception.
Nanny Gu and Nanny Lin had originally been her senior maids, accompanying her as part of her dowry to the Marquis Ning'an's estate.
