A Helping Hand in Time of Need

Mrs. Zhao’s expression turned even uglier. Thinking of Lin Guyu’s habitual behavior, she felt a deeper sense of distress.

In her eyes, a flickering light shone, now bright, now dim, like a beacon in the distance of a desolate island, hazy and indistinct.

If they were to continue this slaughter, she would even be willing to offer her own life as a sacrifice to end this meaningless war.

Under the moonlight, the grass was strewn with bricks, wooden planks, and discarded materials, while wild weeds grew rampant along the roadside.

When Qiao Shengnian came out of the shower, he happened to see Qiao Chengfan staring at the photograph on the marriage certificate.

Seeing Xin Wan'er say this, Su Yuemei felt as though she had been overly sentimental. She fell silent, and the atmosphere in the room turned awkward, as if it had frozen over.

He had lost his faith, his status as the heir, and her; he might not even be able to protect the soldiers behind him.

Before Shi Tian could catch his breath, another beam of emerald light rushed toward him. This time, it was impossible to parry, and the beam struck him squarely in the chest.

Xu Ruyi gripped her hands tightly in anxiety, her nails digging deep into her palms. Seemingly oblivious to the pain, she stared at Lin Guyu without blinking.

"Snap!" The sound of a whip cracking through the air rang out instantly. Strangely, there was no heart-wrenching scream from Zhuyue. As it turned out, Zhuyue had been prepared; the moment the whip struck him, he had clenched his teeth, swallowing the pain and the humiliation together.

The Yellow Rank relies on comprehending the God Core, the Profound Rank on fusion, but what about the Earth Rank? It requires self-derivation. Without a root, where is there to derive from?

"Nonsense! That must be someone jealous of me, the Ancestor Qilin, slandering me like this!" Duan Jiude’s eyelid twitched. He spoke without much conviction, seemingly aware of these rumors but unwilling to admit them.

Because there were so many candles placed in crisscrossing patterns, they cast numerous faint shadows of Solomon’s body. Each shadow was very long; if one did not look closely, they would truly go unnoticed.

What was supposed to be a pleasant hunting trip had now turned into a funeral. While it was a damper, it was an unforeseen event.

"Swish." Hearing the noise, Fatty, who had sobered up slightly, turned his head immediately. In his daze, he saw several gun barrels pointed straight at him.

The Liao army that had emerged from the mountain stream was completely surrounded by the Song army. Aside from those killed, most were captured without a fight. Even Yelu Dilie and his son Yelu Wage, Yelu Sha’s son Yelu Deli, and commanders like Yelu Dumin and Yelu Tangzhao were killed in this battle.

This was how the Fifth Dimension manipulated those below them: releasing human ambition to the maximum extent, provided they had the capability.

As for staying in hotels, it goes without saying—they had been at it so intensely several times that they would sometimes spend the whole night with multiple partners, never repeating the same one.

"Damn it, you’re not taking a powerhouse of the Earth Rank like me seriously, are you?" Seeing the battle between the man and the insect completely ignore him, Fan Bayin couldn't help but roar in frustration.

Beneath his cold mask, Donghuang Taiyi looked at the Imperial Jade Seal still hovering behind Ying Zheng, filled with apprehension.

Liu Tianming had once encountered such giant insects. On the road from Kunming to Panzhihua, a giant insect had killed Zhou Yuan.

"Let’s not talk about this anymore. May I ask what you want?" Ji Ming felt speechless; clearly, he did not want to continue talking to this shut-in.

However, after Ye Ruo consulted him, Zhang Chenguang still found the time to ponder the reasons behind it.

Dressed in a long white robe, Chen Ang was busy working on a body that looked as terrifying as a mutilated corpse before a metal table.

He stopped talking, pulled a cigarette from his pocket, distributed them to those present in order, and then lit his own with a lighter.

Regarding some things, when they happened to others, he could preach grand principles, but once they happened to him, he could say nothing at all.

When performing this movement, the arm muscles should not be stiff; you must stretch your tendons and bones in a relaxed state. If your arms are exceptionally hard, you lose the purpose of the exercise, and the effectiveness will diminish.

Of course, it was ultimately inferior to Chen Kan. Chen Kan came from a background in traditional martial arts and had a unique understanding of the human body in this world. He had been researching medicine since his first plane of existence, slowly delving deeper. Thousands of years of accumulation were no joke; with Chen Kan’s modifications, the effects would certainly be better.

As for the publishing house, to be honest, Ji Ming was still completely confused. The only information he had gathered online was a reference price: it would cost about 50 million to 150 million yen to acquire a medium-sized publishing house in an average location with a few dozen employees.

But the other side had only feigned surrender. They confiscated the weapons and magical artifacts of the Snow Clan, executed all the cultivators, and gathered all the defenseless Snow Clan citizens in the city square before drawing their blades for a slaughter.

No matter how Gou Zhu looked, he could not see the shadows of Lu Ming or the other four from the Xunzhen Temple. Therefore, he did not answer. He could not locate them based on their voices, but they were familiar with this formation, and that was unpredictable. Perhaps replying would only expose his position.

"Hahahaha~" Gu Yi chuckled, stroking his beard. He knew Gu Ying’s personality well; he loved to trip people up secretly, and if you weren't careful, you would fall into his trap.
