Long Qing bought a low-brimmed hat, put on a mask, and then added a pair of sunglasses before strolling into the café. There were plenty of attention-seeking oddballs in society these days, so Long Qing was not worried that his outfit would attract attention.
After hearing this, Wu Qian was secretly astonished. What sort of cultivation and state of mind did it take to attain the Dao and become immortal? In three thousand years, not a single person had managed it.
While the two were talking animatedly, three tall men burst into the restaurant. They came in with such a commotion that it was obvious at a glance they meant trouble.
Hong Jun now realized that Li Jinglong had indeed thought of it; he simply did not wish to say more. A moment later, Li Jinglong marked several possible leyline openings in different areas. The first was Longmen Mountain in Luoyang and the Luo River.
“The company provided it. There’s no need to be so surprised! Still, it’ll be much more convenient when I return to Y City in the future. At least I won’t have to rush around trying to catch a coach.”
Lin Yuhao took the suitcase from Chu Ning and placed it in the trunk. He then opened the car door and gestured for her to get in.
No one believed his claim. Everyone had witnessed how formidable the Blazing Worm Dragon was. Although that crimson bolt of lightning had been terrifying beyond words, it was absolutely impossible to believe that the Blazing Worm Dragon had died just like that.
As the master of Black Wind Hall, one of the six halls and twelve divisions of Blackwater Palace, he knew very well what secret operations the palace was carrying out. Once they succeeded, they would surely overturn heaven and earth and restore the glory of ancient times.
“Is something wrong? Do you need to ask Mother?”
Li Chaoren could not make sense of the words Li Kai had spoken over the phone.
Lin Yuhao remained bent over, watching Chu Ning until his body grew completely stiff from holding the same position for so long. He wanted to stand and change his posture, but every time he shifted even slightly, Chu Ning seemed on the verge of waking. Thus, Lin Yuhao had no choice but to stop himself from rising.
“What? Have you changed your mind? If you want to break the prohibition, this is the best way.”
Zixiao spoke without the slightest concern.
Although Chen Yu had almost no other options left, he still could not bring himself to nod. The reason was that he could not see the drawbacks of this choice. It was impossible for it to offer benefits alone, but no one could say how serious the hidden risks of exposure would be.
Tianyou told Wuchen directly that he had already informed Venerable Kumu about the Foundation Establishment Pill. Everything would be decided after Venerable Kumu returned. In this way, he shifted the entire matter onto the shoulders of the already-dead Venerable Kumu.
Dongxia was very beautiful, though she looked somewhat different from ordinary humans. Her skin was exceptionally pale, almost translucent, and her slender figure and sharply defined features gave her an air of icy aloofness.
Qin Lang had just nodded when Liu Ziyi flew out through the window. At that moment, the phone in her pocket suddenly rang.

The authorities also carried out emergency maintenance on the ticketing equipment. Many staff members had already made psychological preparations in advance, but the result still far exceeded their expectations.
“That old bastard shouldn’t be on Giant Peak, should he?” Long Ye said. Alpha had already scanned the area. There was no one at all in that enormous hurricane, so going there himself would only be a wasted trip.
Brand howled from within the iceberg, as though he were riding a roller coaster. The instant he landed, Shyvana struck him with another claw, sending him soaring into the sky once more.
They had never imagined that Brother Long was not beating Lin Feng, but his own subordinate, He Qiang.
He remained relaxed throughout, his tone calm and steady. Even though the two men had not seen each other for many years, he displayed not the slightest trace of excitement.
After all, elite soldiers were a rare commodity. Any single member of Marx’s unit could match three to five ordinary men.
At that moment, Grand Preceptor Miaoyin had finished making offerings to and tending Sakyamuni Buddha and the Stupa of Many Treasures. As she returned to her homeland, passing through various countries, the six kinds of tremors arose, jeweled lotus flowers fell like rain, and hundreds of millions upon billions of musical and dance works were performed and created.
She had never expected Mu Chendong to invite her alone to such a romantic place. He had even taken the initiative to confide in her and smile at her. If Mu Chendong had not been there, she would certainly have fainted already.
Countless soldiers of the Qi army marched with their heads held high. Amid the stirring drumbeats, they advanced step by step toward the allied forces’ position.
In truth, Ji Zisang needed no reminder. The moment the ministers of Dongyuan saw the Gongsun brothers, they knew the two had come with malicious intent. Either they had come to provoke trouble themselves, or they had come to help Ji Zisang do so. In any case, they harbored ill will.
Lu Chutian had said the expected time would be even shorter. In less than five minutes, he had wrapped several strips of gauze around himself, grabbed some disinfectant, and returned to the bar.
Gu Rongheng was utterly astonished by this and felt that he had been blessed across three lifetimes. In particular, when Xiao Lang handed him the bow, his happiness and pride swelled instantly to their peak.
At that moment, Lin Xiaoting also noticed that Zhou Longfei’s gaze seemed to have remained fixed on her. A blush immediately bloomed across her delicate, lovely cheeks.
In the blink of an eye, Xu Ermeng’s fist had nearly reached Zhou Longfei’s chest. The next second, it was about to slam heavily into him.

She could tell that Ye Tianya truly loved Hua Kexin. Otherwise, he would never have waited for her for more than a year.
When Li Zhong heard this, how could he fail to understand what the new sovereign meant? Yet at that moment, Li Zhong sensed someone watching him.
He knew that Ji Mingyue was helping him maintain appearances, but even with Ji Mingyue’s arm linked through his, his body remained rigid with tension.
With such a terrifying taboo entity entrenched in Nandu, could he really lead his teammates and successfully seal it?
Jiang Sheng’s expression changed dramatically, and he shouted anxiously. They had just been busy helping Xing Chenyu withstand the attacks and had been unable to keep attacking the Eight-Headed Serpent. As a result, the monster had freed its limbs and begun a full-scale counterattack.
If the Royal Enlightenment Temple, a leading institution of Buddhism, and Puxin, the living Buddha of the present age, were to suffer a humiliating defeat, it could very well set off a nationwide backlash against Buddhism.
During one class, the instructor spoke with a regretful expression about the gap between Huaxia and the rest of the world in the semiconductor field.
Xiao Qingru ate with refined delicacy. After Xu Muzhou had finished his meal, more than half of hers still remained. He did not urge her. Instead, he simply sat upright in his seat and watched her eat.
As for the baby in her womb, it seemed somewhat sleepy. It actually withdrew completely and closed Chen Meimei’s abdominal wall from the inside.
Old Master Ouyang slapped the table in front of him, startling Ouyang Lin so badly that he jolted.
Whenever he thought of Einstein’s achievements, Ye Xiao felt his blood surge with excitement. What would result from combining Einstein’s flashes of brilliance with the brain capacity and computational speed of the Razor-Brain Insect? Ye Xiao looked forward to finding out.
Fortunately, Ye Yu’s talent and reputation had surpassed all others even to this day. Otherwise, these ministers would have suspected that Ye Yu was merely an ignorant country bumpkin.
