Chapter 69: Sudden Crisis in Liyue Harbor

Jiang Fan felt a pang of panic as his mind immediately recalled the scene of her sudden departure that morning, bringing a bad premonition to his heart.

The Peak Rankings contained very little introduction about him, noting only that most of his abilities relied on the skateboard beneath his feet—a growing weapon of extreme rarity.

That face possessed three-dimensional features with distinct contours, naturally exuding an aura of asceticism. It was clearly a face that kept strangers at a distance, yet it unconsciously made people want to explore further.

The steam from the bathroom drifted out continuously as Qi Yu carried Nan Qing out barefoot, his gaze falling upon the rocking chair nearby.

The nine-tailed fox cried out in excitement, manipulating the python condensed from holy power to launch a fierce attack against Jiang Sheng and Ji Mingyue.

Buying a Youth-Restoring Pill yesterday had cost a full one million four hundred thousand, forcing the sale of quite a few properties for it.

In truth, even with Sister Han Ling and her younger brother accompanying him, Jiang Sheng felt somewhat diffident about visiting the Martial Arts Alliance this time.

Given his physical condition, entering the water to search today was out of the question; he would simply have to wait until his fever broke and try again tomorrow.

At the mention of the underworld emissaries, the Five Elements Soul's tone abruptly deepened, and those blood-red eyes purposefully fixed their gaze upon Jiang Rui.

Behind all this lay a massive inescapable net. Long before they realized it, this net had already been woven meticulously thread by thread.

"Not hanging out with that pack of fair-weather friends anymore?" Liu Jianguo asked somewhat surprised. Ever since his wife passed away, his son had never been this well-behaved.

Take this Gan Deyuan, for instance; he was such a repulsive person. The other party had already made things abundantly clear to you, yet you still blocked their path. Were you trying to play the bandit and force yourself upon them?

"Fine, then give me an exact figure. How much energy approximately do I need to supply you with before you can level up again?" Fang Li understood a bit—it turned out that supplying energy to this base was by far the most cost-effective method only on Earth, and specifically 21st-century Earth.

Lin Ying's speed skyrocketed as he suddenly accelerated. It wasn't that Yuan Yi couldn't keep up with Lin Ying; it was simply that he had grown somewhat lazy over the years, and his footwork techniques had faded from memory to some extent. Yet how could Lin Ying stop his steps just because of those words of his?

Changgui agreed, "Ah, I understand. The young master is still the thoughtful one. Young master, I'll go make the preparations according to your instructions right away." With that, he turned around and walked out of the account room.

The more dangerous the mission, the higher the reward and the stricter the added conditions—this had always been a rule of the Universe Saber Sect, deliberately placing certain restrictions on perilous tasks.

When one lacked the ability to time-travel, gaining the power to do so felt like an unexpected stroke of immense joy. Yet after just a few days, they were already complaining that this ability wasn't powerful enough. Human nature truly was the most insatiable thing of all, he sighed inwardly.

"May I ask the Empress Dowager, is there something inappropriate about this grand hall regarding the upcoming magic performance? Feel free to speak your mind, and Your Majesty will immediately order adjustments to be made," Jun Wuhai asked caringly, having perceived Yanyu's thoughts.

"Thank you, Prince! Please come right in, Your Highness!" Uncle He Ping already harbored a bad guess in his heart, yet he was still unwilling to believe it.

For instance, the incident where Noble Consort Tong forced Noble Lady Wuya to kneel, causing her to faint in less than half an hour; or Yunxi's longing for her family. In any case, various stories would be picked and shared, focusing primarily on the individuals involved and secondarily on the events themselves.

Nuonuo mustered her courage to apologize to Rong Ting. "I am terribly sorry. It was my fault that the company was implicated, and that you were dragged into it as well." Nuonuo bowed deeply, offering a very formal apology to Rong Ting.

Furthermore... among the younger generation, aside from his good looks, his acting skills and singing talent were both top-notch.

"Hum!" After placing Chen Yu, who was still digesting the energy and memories, in a safe place and accepting the reward given by the Agricultural Deity System, Yang Jie departed and flew toward Peixian.

It was precisely because of this that Xiao Yan realized this pendant might be a supreme treasure—a treasure no less formidable than the Flaming Sun Immortal Sword.

A supreme being from the Immortal Burial Mound let out a cold snort, and a jade Ruyi flew out from amidst his thick strands of hair. Divine light radiated everywhere, each stream resembling a cascading river of stars that covered the heavens and earth, shattering the cosmos.

Suddenly, within the venue that had tended toward tranquility, a transparent object continuously writhed. A moment later, that transparent entity pulled back like a glass lid being lifted, revealing its true form.

Her lower back was severely injured, as if she had been impaled by broken tree branches when she was swept away by the sea waves. Who knew how much time had passed; her complexion was deathly pale without a shred of color, clearly indicating she had suffered excessive blood loss.

"No, there is no need for fellow Daoist to act; I can resolve this myself," the Qing Emperor said calmly within the energy protective barrier, which was already showing wisps of cracks.

Ye Tian's gaze turned cold; the screams echoing from deep within the clouds were naturally not of natural origin, but belonged to human beings.

After taking the wine from Ning Long, Ning Ning poured a cup and downed it in a single gulp. The astringent taste carried a hint of sweetness; though unpalatable, since Elder Brother Zun wanted her to get drunk, perhaps drinking a few more cups would do the trick.

If she lost her breath for even a moment and lacked the strength to swim back, she would be dragged away by the sargassum weeds. Having been dragged once before, Cong Yun swore she never wanted to experience that feeling again! Thinking of that experience from a few days ago, when she swallowed half a belly of water due to being dragged along, made Cong Yun shudder with fright.

Listening to the cries of this Blood-Weeping beast, for some reason, even Cao Cao, who had spent his life amidst the turmoil of war, could not help but have tears well up in his eyes, choking so much that he could not speak.

By the time I reached the edge of the village, it was already past eight o'clock in the evening! It was completely dark! Because the village paths were entirely unpaved dirt tracks and the entrances were extremely narrow, my car simply could not drive inside.

"Brother, it's not outsiders..." I looked at the furious expressions of Shen Jiahan and Kang Zi, but gritted my teeth and stepped in to block them.

Upon hearing it, the result was indeed as the restaurant owner had described: the matter concerning Sister Liu's male infant was truly far more shocking.

The Yaka people inside the mercenary camp had all been corrupted by those alien entities. Therefore, capturing these fellows undoubtedly made the mercenary camp the closest destination, whereas all those other guys were stationed at mines elsewhere.

In truth, Ning Long had no concept of this whatsoever; she was merely an obedient executor. Whatever her elder sister or Elder Brother Zun asked her to do required no reason—she would charge forward regardless of her own safety to accomplish it, and moreover, do it to the best of her ability so as not to disappoint them.

One of the doctors glanced toward the direction of the intensive care unit, hesitated briefly, and ultimately walked away in the opposite direction. As he reached the corridor, however, he was abruptly ambushed by two people lying in wait there.

The further one climbed toward the tree crown, the more luxuriant the branches and leaves became. However, by the time I climbed halfway up, I felt that the place carried an intense yin energy, with the tree trunks seemingly exuding a trace of icy chill.
