Reunion, Companions, Rain

That is because I took a special potion from the Dark Chamber of Commerce. The middle-aged man said hastily, trying to ease the atmosphere.

Unexpectedly, however, the Abyss Flame Demon made an inauspicious start. Unable even to cross the hell passage, the Demon Lord had to take action personally. With a virtual grasp of its claws and a gentle tug, the hell passage was pulled open like a cloth bag, and the Abyss Flame Demon squeezed its way through, seizing the opportunity.

A bad premonition arose unbidden in Charlotte's heart, yet he did not dare to interrupt Zhong Shenxiu.

Today, Belladante and Mercedes had both come. For no other reason than the giant demonic insect of yesterday.

In those chaotic times, kill warrants enabled many secret agents on high-risk missions to achieve repeated breakthroughs and make enormous contributions to national defense.

Zhou Yuan supported himself with both hands, and immediately, the Wheel of Heavens' Life and Death manifested, crushing down toward Shi Jin.

This was the first time Yang Qi had drawn an energy-type item from the lottery. Energy-type items had always had an extremely high probability, which in Yang Qi's view was far from a good thing. The fact that he hadn't drawn one in his previous attempts was clearly a matter of extreme fortune, but now he had finally drawn one.

Just in case something were to happen, it would be good to have mutual support. At the same time, he wondered whether he should tell Yang Qi. Although Yang Qi had always kept a low profile, Du Wangyou and Liu Qingman would, from time to time, subconsciously treat him as their backbone. Whenever something came up, they would think of Yang Qi, and upon thinking of Yang Qi, their minds would settle much more at ease.

These six Realm-Stepping experts were invited by him from the seven great families. Chu Ye had indeed been acting far too presumptuous lately; while he might not necessarily kill him outright, he still had to teach him a lesson and let him know that the dignity of the royal family could not be violated.

Then, with a slight flick of her arm, a flash of white light appeared in the bedroom. That completely transparent, snowy-white dagger silently glided into her palm. Almost at the very same instant, another beam of white light struck the vase on the counter. With a crisp snap, the vase did not shatter; instead, it was cleanly sliced in two.

To be honest, having known Feng He for so many years, Song Qingming did not actually understand the man very well. Back when he first met him in the State of Lu, Song Qingming had been forced to cooperate with him simply to find a way out.

With this single shout, he instantly focused the attention of the two members of the Gao family entirely upon Cheng Yilong.

Indeed, the scale of the dark forces might exceed imagination, and with powers so formidable, relying solely on the strength of a single academy might not be enough to contend with them.

The deposed consort did not even glance at the pile of garments beside her, hastily gathering up all the jewelry instead.

This was the first time Zhang Yang had seen Brezec contending with another player. Was this the way Eastern European centers greeted each other?

As Shangguan Xiao's overt ally, the Cyan-Faced Ghost and his forces were indeed the most likely to be implicated following Shangguan Xiao's downfall.

As for the situation in the West, the Bobcats' coaching staff and players had no time to worry about it; they could just watch the spectacle and curse Horry and Popovich. Over in the East, however, their opponent was already confirmed to be the Pistons, as they were certain the Bulls lacked the capability to win three consecutive games against the Pistons.

After all, it was not worth it over such a trivial matter. With eyes and ears everywhere at home, letting others find out and spread the word would only create unnecessary gossip, and Jiang Yun wished to avoid complications.

This incident caused a massive uproar, with the Boston media launching successive attacks against him, calling for the Celtics to ship this rookie—who spoke of the Lakers and Chamberlain at every turn—straight to Los Angeles.

In their wildest dreams, they never imagined that one day, the Cangwu lineage would produce such a monumental figure standing atop the peak of the Northern Sea.

Yet, considering that the other person had not actually done anything, merely asking a few questions, and that all of this was merely his own feeling—objectively speaking, this was simply a kind senior looking out for a newcomer.

She had always hesitated: should she let her grow up like an ordinary child, allowing her to stay carefree by Cheng Yuxian's side?

The next day, in the Taiji Hall, Northern Yin Chong unexpectedly appeared upon the dragon throne, demanding that his ministers report on affairs of state.

Old Hu understood the implication, nodded to Young Master Ma to reassure him, and then turned back toward the contestant seating, gazing at Meng Zuo.

Hearing this, Liu Ruoyan was stunned for a moment, then covered her mouth with a light chuckle. Looking around to ensure no one was near, she gave a casual wave of her delicate hand.

Feng Xue spread her peach-red wings glowing with seven-colored crystalline brilliance, flying into the sky amidst the soft moonlight and rapidly vanishing from sight.

It is worth mentioning that on the second day, Lu Chenxiang even came in person, though he did not go in to challenge Fan Jian, lingering only for a short while before departing.

They all harbored resentment toward Xu Ping for ignoring them earlier, and now that an opportunity to beat a drowning dog presented itself, they naturally would not let it go.

Gu Yeheng held Mu Fengxi as they boarded the phoenix, beautiful clouds streaking past their eyes. Mu Fengxi felt as though she were riding a roller coaster.

So young, yet destined perhaps to spend a lifetime facing an ancient Buddha and flickering oil lamps, prompting Xu Tingting to feel a spontaneous wave of pity upon seeing him.

Chen Hao was about to speak when the black cat suddenly let out a shrill meow, and Chen Hao, too, turned a piercing gaze deep into the valley.

At this moment, the wild boar could finally restrain itself no longer. Being a beast, it could only judge danger through instinct; the dagger-wielding man chasing it was not someone it could afford to provoke, but that cat was even less approachable, leaving it no choice but to flee in another direction.

Surpassing Meng Zhen in verbal sparring for the very first time, Li Shan felt a quiet thrill inside. Having a master backing him up truly felt wonderful.

Yue Shenghai smiled without a word; he ordinarily couldn't be bothered to care about such students, let alone know their origins.

"It is the ripple of teleportation. We can go out now." With gazes intertwining, sharing the tacit understanding built over three years, the two spoke in unison, then exchanged a knowing smile.

Stall, use the delaying tactic... Drag it out. No matter how many years it took, once her background was uncovered, there would be no fear of her making trouble.

"Who do you think sent this text message? An unfamiliar number—is it a prank, or is someone helping us from the shadows?" Hu Tianbiao looked suspiciously at the phone screen, then asked Zeng Dalao.

Feigning a pale and still-weak appearance, she stepped out of the guest chamber and strolled nearby. Without the master's permission, she dared not wander too far.

Master Long seemed to have noticed his own slip of the tongue as well. Glancing at Chen Hao's peculiar look, he gave up explaining and continued typing his message.

At the same time, Urtear—who stubbornly refused to use spatial arcs and instead competed with Gray's master-brother duo using her own imperfect Ice-Make Magic—along with Brandish, who was locked in a bitter struggle against Jura and the Blue Pegasus alliance, both sensed that something was amiss.

"On the very day my son was beaten to death, I hated the First Prince, and I hated the emperor of that time as well. Yet on that exact day, I stopped hating the First Prince, because he saved both me and dozens of lives in the Yang family."

A soldier shouted loudly, his words interrupting everyone's train of thought. Were they planning to dispatch troops to meet the enemy in battle?
