She crawled toward Jiuyin in tears, her face deathly pale, looking as though she might faint at any moment.
Since Yang Wei could not hear Nabelar’s thoughts, she had no idea that Nabelar did not seem to dislike the grease stains on her clothes at all. On the contrary, she looked delighted—as though she had shaken hands with a celebrity and intended never to wash that hand for an entire year.
“She did not die for your sake, either. Make sure you remember that.” Xia Churan spoke again. In her view, Diao Lang was truly reading far too much into things.
The suited man from the Fu family hurriedly shrank behind the captain of the Esper Team, revealing only a pair of terrified eyes as he stared at the nine men who had suddenly appeared.
Qi Chengyu clenched the hand at her side. No one knew better than she did what sort of fate awaited someone with a pure yin body. Though this was the Immortal Realm, and such a person would not necessarily suffer as miserably as she had, that constitution alone made one an excellent material for refining all kinds of immortal weapons and elixirs.
There were many grounds and details a court could use to determine whether you posed a threat to another person’s life. For instance, if you kept your right hand in your pocket, that alone might be taken as a potential threat, since it could be the prelude to drawing a gun.
The report stated that among those summoned and taken away directly were three members of the Han family; the managers and coaches of eleven professional and university clubs; fourteen professional rookies; three Battle Association employees; and two district councilors.
“Roar!” The savage beast bared its teeth and claws, apparently threatening Chief, eager to attack yet hesitating to act. Clearly, it had considerable reservations.
Zhang Song had originally been entertained because he was a high-ranking official. It was preparation for entering Yizhou in the future; having an acquaintance there would certainly make things easier.
The two objects were connected by a red cord and made of copper, their surfaces decorated with a pattern of falling flowers. Good grief—what else could they be but her handbells?
Jin Lianxin had returned to ask for more flavor essence liquid, and once again acted as though it were only natural for her to pay nothing resembling a proper price. The situation was somewhat awkward.
It was autumn, and there was little farm work to be done in the countryside. Moreover, land had already been contracted to individual households. Unlike in the past, when people had to remain tied to the production teams even when there was no work, farmers were enjoying leisure for the first time in many years.
Those who entered were gambling on luck. As long as they could clear one round, their entry money would be won back.

Half of Fiona’s divine power was occupied with blocking these things, but it was no different from throwing water-soaked firewood into a blaze. They were not enough to extinguish the flames and could only hold them back slightly. As her divine power caught fire, crackling explosions rang out from within Fiona’s bones.
“Your Highness, the Imperial Noble Consort, what on earth are you babbling about? These matters are of grave importance and require evidence. If you continue slandering me like this, I will have no choice but to hand everything over to His Majesty and the Empress Dowager.”
Consort Li’s emotions grew increasingly agitated.
Fiona and Riven arrived at the weapons room one after the other. Fiona immediately raised a hand and pushed open the door. The sight of the weapons inside stirred her excitement, and she hurried in to search. Even if she could not find a sword comparable to Silver Dragon Judgment, she hoped to find at least one fine blade made from something better than ordinary material.
Everyone analyzed her in turn, as if stripping away layer after layer of her expensive clothing until the ugliest depths of her heart lay exposed.
I have just returned from a long journey, so I can only post one chapter today. I will continue tomorrow during the day, at around noon.
Xuan Yi pressed a sleeve to her mouth to suppress a yawn and glanced around listlessly. Most of the disciples in the Hede Hall were clearly as drowsy as she was. Only Taiyao, Zhixi, and Guting were listening attentively as usual. Shaoyi, meanwhile, kept his head lowered and wrote something without pause.
“Mu Jingchen, have you gone mad?” She covered her mouth and retreated several steps, not even daring to look at the surrounding spectators.
After gaining the demonic god’s power in which opposing forces had been fused, his standards had risen dramatically. He now even dared to call an S-class bloodline trash.
The two demons were left stunned for quite a while. Then they covered their faces, let out sharp cries, and transformed into two streaks of green and purple light, each returning to its true form.
“Me?” If there was anything the seemingly omnipotent Xie Feifan was bad at, basketball was one of them. He genuinely did not know how to play.
Even Tang Xu could tell that the boss had been in a strange mood every day. Whenever there was no work, he liked to hold his phone and simply stare at it, neither turning the pages nor touching the screen. Once, Tang Xu happened to discover that he was looking at photographs of Lin Shiyu training.
He had personally chosen this agent because the man was amusing and obedient. Whatever he said was always carried out without question.
Pu Qingyan did not stay overnight at the hospital with Weiyi. He planned to come back and visit during the day.

Close behind came the three fellow disciples Wuxiang, Wuwei, and Wuwang, along with Si Xueyi and Rong Yunhe, who had come to inquire about the situation.
Qingyun appeared extremely calm on the surface, but he knew exactly what the girl Lingxue felt for him.
At that moment, they truly did not know what to say. None of them had imagined that Fang Heng’s methods would be so formidable.
All the Western Xia soldiers withdrew. She turned to look at Di Qing, tears glistening on her face with startling clarity. She smiled faintly, left not a word behind, and was taken away by Li Yuanhao.
Fortunately, the tea stain on the robe was not very large. Before long, a shimmering lotus blossomed around the waist, completely concealing the stain. Set against the pale lotus-root-colored fabric, the delicate pink flower was pleasing to the eye from every angle.
She swung both arms from side to side again, twisting her body left and right, yet still could not break free of his powerful grip. Her wrist ached where he held it. That thread of pain gradually spread throughout her body. Slowly, her furious eyes grew moist, and tears gathered in them before she even realized it.
The moment the words were spoken, everyone fell silent. Mingyi looked toward Lingluo. Lingluo had known she would face trouble, yet at that moment she put on an innocent, pitiful expression, lowering her head and lightly biting her lip.
“I—I missed you. I missed you so much!” Su Su openly confessed how deeply she had longed for Qiao Chu.
No one knew how conflicted Ning Qian felt at that moment. A decision she made might affect her happiness for the rest of her life—and, of course, Shen Chengren’s happiness as well.
