Without time to think, he summoned all his strength, clenched his fist, and struck directly at Telins. The two faced each other once more. Dan Bo spat out a great mouthful of blood into the air, while Telins suffered no serious injury, merely coughing a few times and retreating several steps.

Chuan Xiongzhi and Xiao Ziyang both nodded without saying anything. It was only natural, after all. This was their territory; if they could not even guarantee their clients’ safety, bankruptcy would be only a matter of time. The three of them then resumed their fight.

“His Highness the Prince of Yu? He is the future brother-in-law I intend to introduce to you,” Meng Shu said with a beaming smile.

Come to think of it, how had he never known that his beloved subject Jiang possessed such an exceedingly well-hidden secret chamber elsewhere?

“You two are truly lazy.” The air here was good, so she had risen even earlier than usual and run once around the mountain.

Qin Yue had long since thrown down his chopsticks in frustration and was glaring fixedly at the wall. If one had nothing to say, then one ought to say nothing. But to conceal seven parts while revealing three, deliberately arousing someone’s curiosity and then refusing to explain—what sort of behavior was that?

The people stationed atop the ruins of the Phantom Emperor Palace paced back and forth, watching for anything unusual.

In such a man-eating purgatory, should one let a single person die, or allow the entire family to be buried alongside him?

If the immeasurably vast multiverse did not exist, Transcenders would never be born. Without Transcenders, there could be no Dao-Realm experts, and without them, no Supreme Ones who had reached the end of the Dao.

After all, the Upper Realm was blessed with outstanding people and abundant spiritual energy, and cultivation advanced at astonishing speed. How could a mere Lower Realm compare? Even if someone from the Lower Realm cultivated for a hundred years, it would not equal ten years here.

Beneath that red-jade-like treasure tree, a person sat cross-legged. When the four of them saw him, Zhen Yuanzi and the others hurried forward and bowed deeply.

The power chamber resembled a huge black bag with exhaust vents all around it. Once the electrical power core and smoke-propulsion core inside began operating, it could expel air outward.

Jiang Qingyi walked beside Mo Jingyuan. When she passed Old Li, she turned back and gave him a long, profound look.

Jun Mingyue looked up at the magnificent palace. She could not shake the feeling that its towering walls carried a faint oppressive force, like a secret realm without bottom or end. She felt that once she entered, she might never be able to leave again.

In essence, it bore the slightest resemblance to the highly poisonous orbs that released toxins and the flame orbs that emitted heat.

With a casual gesture, Gu Feng sent out a strand of soul force to envelop those who could not withstand it. As for those capable of holding on, Gu Feng would not concern himself with them.

In the end, it was this elder husband who found a way to buy the place back. In other words, although the sign hanging at the entrance read “The Mu Family,” the property actually belonged to Huo Mingshen.

“Look, what do you think of sending this soldier to your special forces unit?” Colonel Wang asked Zhuang Yan, then turned to Gao Dazhuang.

The method of condensing crystals was originally the most orthodox path of cultivation throughout the endless void and countless universes. Ziwei had merely founded it under the guidance of destiny’s invisible currents.

“Did you manage to get any food?” Pan Kui asked sympathetically. The two cousins stood shoulder to shoulder, one tall and one short, their black-and-white contrast striking.

After getting off the plane, she went to the restroom to touch up her makeup, concealing the haggardness left by her recent serious illness. Then she put on sunglasses to hide the dark circles beneath her eyes, which had been made even more pronounced by her poor condition, and walked out of the airport.

Xie Lanyin was silent for a long while before sighing. “Someone this foolish can actually become emperor in peace and safety.” Life was truly unfair. If her elder brother had been in the same situation as Emperor Tianhe, how would they have ended up like this?

Han Zhengjie suddenly raised his head and looked straight into Han Cheng’s eyes. Yet all he saw there was calmness and darkness.

Cigarette butts were scattered everywhere across the floor. A twenty-one-inch color television sat in the room, covered with a thick layer of dust. No one knew how long it had been since anyone cleaned the place.

Later, seeing that Gu Shaoqing was a good child, the old master used the opportunity to teach him many cooking techniques as well. Most of the culinary skills Gu Shaoqing possessed now had been taught to him by that master.

Everyone looked at one another, uncertain whether they should believe her. Zhao Yingtian was currently in danger outside, and if anyone in the city could save him, it might well be Hong Lei.

The Grand Helian Madam was moved to tears by her gratitude toward Xie Zhi. A Rong was fortunate to have such a mistress of the household. Completely satisfied, the Grand Helian Madam took her leave.

Of the more than thirty men in black, only twenty remained. Their martial skills were clearly superior to those of the Western Nu. Their objective was unmistakable: tear open a gap in the enemy’s formation with all their strength, then join forces to crush them.

She had never intended to sell it in the first place. Grandfather Jiang had said that the compensation demanded amounted to five hundred thousand. Even if Second Aunt Jiang had been kicked in the head by a donkey, she still would not have spent twice that amount to buy a bracelet from her.

“What did you say? Damn it, so what if I eat without paying? Did you even ask whose turf this is? Let me tell you—do you know Master Long? He’s my boss! In all of the capital, apart from the government offices, nobody has more influence than my boss, Master Long!” Yellow Hair spat onto the ground.

“Uncle Wu, just go back. If tonight’s plan succeeds, I won’t be coming back!” Gao Shimeng opened her bag and glanced at the spray inside, her beautiful eyes flashing.

With Hua Juewu’s support, she ordered her subordinates to “escort” everyone from the Qixiang Music House out of the Jade Qin Palace at once.

Liao Fan had already learned that their transport planes and bombers had entered production. Although the output was not high, they could modify the transport planes. Equipping Chairman Miao and Chairman Chiang with one private aircraft each was still within their capabilities.

That doctor who never treated illness had apparently made up his mind to spend the rest of his life contending with Zhu Hun. In terms of medical skill, Wu Buyi should have been better than Xiao Sanlang. But Xiao Sanlang knew martial arts, whereas Wu Buyi did not. “Full Moon, Broken Dream” was a supreme art of the Poison Sect. If one day it were used against Wu Buyi, how would Wu Buyi himself save his own life?

“Purple Arrow” was Yunsan. Ever since the battle at Lianyun Mountain, the reputation of the Young Master of Yicheng, Cheng Yitian, had resounded throughout the land. The height of his martial prowess was known to all. Few people believed they could make him uneasy or disturb his composure—except for this young woman named Yunsan.

Yet Calder looked completely at ease. He winked at Elle as though trying to hint at something, but Elle did not quite understand.

I was sorting through the clothes I had brought when Yishi pushed open the door and called for me, asking me to make his afternoon meal. Since I intended to study under him, helping him cook was unavoidable. I did not mind it, either. Besides, with him cooking, what was there to fear about not being able to eat it?

Moreover, there were many people in the House of Extraordinary Talent. They could be found throughout the martial world, among the disciples of every sect. Their identities, however, were concealed so deeply that no one knew who they really were.

His previously hunched body straightened once more, and his voice gradually rose. Though the words had been phrased as a question, his tone was unmistakably affirmative.
