Volume 1, Chapter 54: A Series of Good Fortunes

Sun Naizheng calmly walked to the microphone, bowed to the leaders and guests, then sat down with easy composure and began his report.

Ye Tian went straight to the dormitory entrance. The matron in charge of the building said to him, “Which class are you in? Why are you only coming back to the dormitory this late? Come over and sign your name, then you can go in.”

When Liu Bei heard the news, it was as though thunder had exploded above his head. His thoughts immediately fell into disarray. He returned to Liu Yu and Liu Fei and told them what had happened.

“Our establishment holds this once every three months. I’m also an old friend of yours—the Mysterious Man,” the voice continued to echo through the speakers.

In the utter silence, several streaks of silver suddenly shot out. One after another, the sounds of heavy objects hitting the ground rang through the hall.

After Wu Jin finished eating, he let out a burp. The two of them immediately exchanged a brief kiss flavored with Orléans mayonnaise hand-grabbed flatbread.

At this moment, the Immortal-Piercing Divine General was inside Elder Shao’s cavern abode, and not merely within it—he was in its very core, separated by only a single wall from the chamber where Elder Shao had secluded himself to recover from his injuries. He was currently using the Celestial Origin Concealment Technique, so neither Elder Shao nor any of the formations could sense him.

The young man’s tone was gentle, but his expression was unusually solemn. Qin Jinyu inexplicably recalled how Su Heng had once taken her by the hand and told her that he did not intend to marry. He had seemed just as earnest and serious then.

When Wang Yan heard those people’s conversation, she ultimately could not hold back her laughter. Even Luo Li and Zheng Xin’er covered their mouths and giggled.

Jack glared at Brother Xiao, eager to refute him, but what he had said was the truth. After all, Jack really had been pursuing her for a long time. Yet Aili had never given him an answer. Yes, she had reacted to his pursuit, but to be honest, perhaps she simply had no feelings for him, which was why she had never agreed.

Ba Jue Qianli and the more than twenty people accompanying him walked straight to the side of the Wasteland Wolf King. Ba Jue Tianhu then stepped forward, clad in silver armor and holding a black spear.

With his own strength, Cao Zhang beheaded four Qiang generals and slew several hundred Qiang soldiers in a series of battles, earning a resounding reputation.

As soon as the lotus platform was cut free, the Silkworm Baby withdrew the Blackheaven Silken Thread from it, coiled it into a bundle, and held it in his hand.

Zhang Ziqian did not say a word as he escorted me all the way back to the Purple Dusk Palace. What exactly did he and Liuyun know—something I was not allowed to know?

I had originally intended to use today’s opportunity to turn the situation around, but instead I dragged myself into it. It seemed that the rule-bound life I had led all along had truly been wasted. From now on, Ling Miaozhu and the others would surely treat me like a thorn in their flesh.

Mu Chen slowly crept behind Liangliang. Taking advantage of its inattention, he suddenly bent down and reached out with both hands toward its neck.

After hearing these words, Ziyang did not know what to say, much less how to express himself. In some indistinct corner of his mind, he felt that Old Man Xuanming’s words made sense, yet he could not shake the feeling that something was strange and improper about them.

Countless creatures from the Starry Sea Pirates launched a frenzied assault. The creatures of this star system fought desperately to hold them back, while warriors from the nearby star systems came to reinforce them—all except those from the Angel Planet.

After Sun Jian and Zhou Yu led the army out of camp, they left behind only three thousand soldiers to guard it. The veteran Han Dang assumed command, assisted by Sun Quan, Sun Jian’s second son.

“She’s from the Leng family too?” She did not look much like one. Why did she seem so furtive?

“Tsk, what a pity.” Everyone knew that if this fellow had not died, he would certainly have become a fine prospect, possessing both temperament and resolve, as well as decisiveness.

However, none of these major affairs had anything to do with Su Qiong at present. His most urgent task was still to form a spirit. There was plenty of time before the Great Deficiency Five Sects Sword Competition. The “recently” mentioned by Nie Xian was based on the time scale of someone bearing the mark; in truth, more than half a year remained before it began, leaving ample time to condense a spirit sword.

As long as they were not overtaken by those scouts, the army behind them could never match their marching speed. Once they returned to Whistling Wind City, whether they chose to defend it or remain there, they would at least survive.

Wang Kuan could not be bothered to pay attention to Shao Renjie. After all, Shao Renjie was usually unbearably domineering and found fault with everyone he met. Now that he wanted someone’s help, naturally no one was willing to give him the time of day.

Yun Yeyao watched the cook leave the recreation room. The expression in his eyes gradually changed from helplessness to sharpness. The cook seemed to have deliberately come to mention certain matters to him, but Yun Yeyao still could not fully understand the crucial point.

The two sides did not disperse upon contact. Instead, they clung together, spinning continuously in midair, probing and entangling with one another. Huang Yong and the leader of the Horned Viper Tribe continued channeling spiritual energy into the clash.

Although the explosion in his right hand brought him intense pain, he nevertheless retained a fairly clear understanding of what had just happened.

His words erupted like thunder and spread far and wide through the starry sky, so that as many people as possible could hear them.

Dong Dazhi thought for a moment, then put an arm around Jiang Nan’er and acted extremely affectionate toward her, while his consciousness swiftly located the system.

After so many years, he had achieved his wish. He had finally embarked upon the path of cultivation, battling men and contending with Heaven, rising from obscurity to become renowned throughout the Wasteland and revered by all.

The People’s Fourth Hospital had originally been the clinic where Zhou Sining gave birth. Its name had only recently been changed. It was considered the largest hospital in the area, so when Mother Fu developed a fever, she had come directly here.

After suffering for more than a decade in the original host’s life, the day had finally arrived when justice was restored and the wrongs done to her father and herself were avenged.

The necklace was made of the same material, but its appearance was especially beautiful. Its pendant was heart-shaped, encircled on both sides by white wings. At the center of the heart were five differently shaped recesses that could be fitted together to form a complete, dazzlingly colorful heart.

As Mo Weina chanted her spell, a white radiance enveloped Beck Slough. The strange aura of the Evil Ghost Spider King’s Evil Ghost Binding was dispelled.

In those days, it was not particularly unusual for a man in the countryside to beat his wife. If she ran to the village head to make a scene, it would have no real effect. But if she invoked the county police station and then spread the matter throughout the village, the outcome would be entirely different.

Back when Lin Ziyue had first entered the Heavenly Guard, he had not yet begun cultivating. At that time, Muji and Monette were already genuine E-rank superpowered individuals. Moreover, Moonstar possessed its own system of combat techniques. Although Monette and Muji were inferior in combat to the three of Lin Ziyue’s group, they were still quite capable compared with ordinary superpowered individuals.
