Volume 1, Chapter 48: Mother Cannot Live Without You
The last time she had tucked a bedsheet around him was when she was living in a university-rented apartment, back when his car had run out of gas and he had to stay over at her place.
However, looking at Su Qingyan standing right before her now, Xu Fengjiao suddenly had no idea what to do.
Subsequently, "Peony of True National Beauty" used this single whimsical conjecture to make all sorts of far-fetched arguments, claiming a ninety-nine percent probability that it was a state-owned enterprise.
A ninja of the Hyuga clan spoke, then suddenly struck from behind, slamming both palms into their backs and instantly severing their vital life force.
Before he could finish speaking, a massive cloud of iron sand rose within the village, blocking out the sky like a dark storm cloud.
The problem, however, was that both parties had already signed the contract, and the promotional posters had already been released. If he were to pull the film from release now, people outside would simply say he had turned coward.
A giant toad, colored in alternating shades of orange and brown, leaped dozens of meters high, clearing the courtyard wall from the inside out.
"No wait, when did you return to the country? How are things over in Italy?" Jiang Yucheng panicked slightly.
Judging from the exterior, the houses here were far from ordinary, boasting a very high-end facade. It was Qin Ming's first time visiting such a place.
The instant Old Madam Ling was pushed in for cremation, the heart-wrenching cries of Ling Shanni and the others echoed through the grand hall.
Under the oppressive might of heaven and earth, the phantom of the Thunder God had already shattered, yet all the thunder elemental energy did not disperse; instead, it was entirely absorbed by the thunder bead, making it even more condensed and exuding a terrifying aura that crashed down fiercely like a meteor or a shooting star.
"I'm right here, how did you fall off the bed?" The light clicked on, and Yifan's face peeked out from the bed.
"All right, Old Five, stop cursing and swearing. Pipe down." A mature woman's authoritative voice rang out.
As the divine talisman burned, it abruptly shot forth a dark-gold divine light that illuminated eternity. Layers of space disintegrated, actually causing the Vast Yang Infinite Void Grand Array that Chen Ting had just activated to halt its operation, forcing his figure out from the semi-illusory space.
"You surnamed Ling, I want your life!" One of them took the lead, thrusting a knife straight toward Ling Zhiyuan.
The Demon King clearly had the upper hand. From my angle, the Demon King only needed to swing his blade one more time to kill Erwa and Heifeng.
I struggled to get down to the floor, but he seemed to hold me even tighter, hesitated for a moment, and then set me down.
It could be said that apart from the necklace of life around Cai Zhixiong's neck, you could not find anything else on him.
After crushing this Demon God Pearl, Roc immediately regretted it. Realizing that one-third of his bodily control would be handed over to the Demon God, he was a thousand and ten thousand times unwilling.
Judging by Cuier's age, Jiang Huan must have been quite young at that time, probably around thirteen or fourteen years old.
Shen Feng saw that what they were holding were either various vegetables, fish, and meat, or charcoal for fires; clearly, that large house served as the kitchen here.
Yin Limu's footsteps stopped in front of Bai Moyan. She raised a hand to lift Bai Moyan's chin, her gaze flickering as she looked at her with complicated emotions.
"Why is your complexion so deathly pale?" Shaoyao, in disguise, happened to run into Xu Xianer walking out from here and had dropped by to take a look. Just as she broke through the window, the sight that met her eyes was Qin Su's paper-white face.
Du Yuesheng had half a mind not to go, yet it was difficult to decline Zhang Xiaolin's kind invitation. After all, this was his second time inviting him; if he refused again, it would be showing a complete lack of face. Thinking of this, Du Yuesheng agreed with a smile plastered all over his face.
Daggers flashed at the throats of every management member of Past Sentiments and Proud Sword. The cold blades were sharp and gleaming.
Shen Yunyou opened her mouth in surprise, her thoughts somewhat chaotic. Picking up a blanket from the bed, she slowly walked over to the daybed and draped the blanket over Situ Rui.
Xiao Luo did not dawdle either, immediately pulling out a slip of paper he had prepared long ago, containing the missing ingredients for the Nine-Turn Pill.
Looking at the fragments of Feng Qingyu on the ground, Shen Feng finally let out a sigh of relief, picked up the "Soul-Returning Banner" from the floor, and walked toward Wu Yan.
However, for the other party to imply that they were on the same side meant there was only one possibility: the other party was an old acquaintance of his! Thinking of this, Du Yuesheng nodded slightly in his heart. That was the only possibility! Yet, as he ran through everyone he knew in his mind, he still could not figure out who the person truly was.
This imperial wedding was a state ceremony, overseen step-by-step by the Ministry of Rites and the Court of Imperial Clan Affairs. The officials handling the protocol were also from the Ministry of Rites. Every word and step of the Li family's reciprocal ceremonies had been rehearsed according to the Ministry's rules multiple times—while dignified and solemn to the extreme, it lacked a certain liveliness.
As the devouring continued, the suction force emitted by my past-life self as my physical body opened its mouth grew increasingly majestic.
One must know that among a million martial artists, there might be one with the seed of a pellet fire, but the probability of actually awakening the pellet fire within one's body was less than one in a million.
Therefore, Ye Xingchen deduced that these seven alchemists from the Dark Dan Alliance must have forcibly extracted the fire seed from a martial artist whose natal pellet fire had not yet awakened.
Since Li Zhengdao had made such a big spectacle, they couldn't just make it end before he even had a chance to execute his technique, could they?
If the Heavenly Dao of the Threefold Realm experienced ordinary assassinations—such as when Xiao Yao targeted that Heavenly Dao of the realm with giant trees and giant stones back then—that kind of Heavenly Dao could unleash such methods to execute its ultimate move.
