32 The First Ranking Announcement (Part II)

"He..." Cang Luochen was just about to answer when both he and Yue Junzheng heard footsteps.

All of this happened in an instant. The shapeshifting monster lunged forward, while the three monsters drawn by Qiu Shuiying also charged toward her.

"The medicine will lose its efficacy if it gets cold. Your Highness, you should drink it first," Cang Jiuyao said as she took the bowl from Qian Xun and urged Yue Junzheng.

"Go gnaw over there, someone wants to take pictures," Yuan Lili said, amused as she kicked the chair. She saw that Tao Ran was doing it on purpose. The makeup chair had wheels, and with a light kick, it slid away along the wall.

As it turned out, they had intended to escape through the water tunnels but were blocked by a crocodile dragon. With the beast in front and robotic warriors pursuing from behind, one of their companions, gripped by terror, detonated the explosives buried there.

Lin Rui’s heart suddenly tightened, giving a sharp thud. His scalp went numb, his hair stood on end, and a sense of impending death washed over his entire body.

Everyone was very polite, exchanging pleasantries about how they had "long admired" one another. But I would bet they basically didn’t know each other at all. In any case, I hadn’t heard of any of them, let alone admired them for a long time.

As the words left her lips, Li Mingxia was startled herself. Wasn't she clearly planning to refuse? How did it turn into an agreement?

Their missions always involved placing their lives in the hands of death; every single time, there was a chance they might not return.

"Are you that happy?" Suddenly, a familiar, teasing voice sounded in Yun Tu's ear.

For Xia Mu, even though Danzo was a sworn enemy, if Danzo were to go missing, it would still deal a blow to the Third Hokage's reputation.

In any case, there were legendary enlightened masters in this world who could perform slight illusions, so she had simply chosen a sophisticated-sounding name for it.

Cang Wu's will to survive was nothing if not intense, much like the transmigrators who first arrived at the Star Arena and faced death head-on. Aristocrats? Xenomorphs? What was the difference? They were all just contenders in the dark forest; everyone was a hunter, and everyone was prey—it was merely a question of who was stronger.

Zuo Zimu was completely exasperated, but not daring to vent his anger on Duan Yu, he drew his sword and charged straight at Zhong Ling.

They had long since made arrangements; before the incident, they had secretly sent their clansmen off the island to settle elsewhere, planning to return and settle the score when necessary.

Relying solely on his own strength, his current level was certainly not enough to kill it. To clear the stage, he had to obtain a spiritual weapon prototype of at least A-grade and sublimate it to a higher level to annihilate Saya.

However, while investigating intelligence on the Hyuga clan, they unexpectedly obtained information about the Nine-Tails Jinchūriki.

"Don't worry, I will definitely keep a close eye on An'er. He has been much more obedient lately," the Sea King nodded repeatedly.

Among the lower realms, the dragon race and the Nine-Headed Golden Lion clan, even the pure-blooded ones, had relatively thin bloodlines after countless generations of inheritance. But even so, as long as they grew successfully, they could reach at least the Seventh Realm. If their bloodlines were purer and their natural talents better, reaching the Eighth or Ninth Realm was not difficult.

Eh? He didn't expect Naruto to beat him to the answer. Xia Mu's goal today had originally been to recruit Naruto into the organization.

She had felt heartbroken at the time, but as the days went by, you realize that in this world, everyone can survive without anyone else.

The villa’s front gate stood open, and they immediately saw Zhao Ji and Qin Guozhu sitting in the courtyard.

Ye Qingyun’s entire body was trembling. She wanted to scream, but she was so terrified that she couldn't even make a sound; only tears slid inadvertently from the corners of her eyes.

The meaning behind these words was clear to both of them, and he had made it plain: "We arrived at the same time, so either we go in together, or I go in first. It is up to you to choose."

The smoke and clouds dissipated, yet he had not moved an inch. The power of the snake’s tail was blocked, and as he gripped the Cangxie Sword, blood energy surged behind him. He gathered his inner energy and roared, instantly repelling the massive tail. The head of the Scarlet Curse Ba Snake lunged to bite him, but Qi Xuanyi shifted, dodging the enormous head and landing dozens of feet away.

Xu Shaotang let out a cold snort. His golden energy surged like a giant crescent moon, sweeping across; blood instantly painted a red streak in the air.

"You don't have an ounce of talent. Can't you tell that was a derogatory term?" While speaking, Chen Dong had finished drawing the final talisman with superhuman efficiency.

Looking at Lu Changyao, whose expression was colder than stone, Lu Mingjue knew that no matter what he said, she would not help him. He simply decided to provoke her, hoping to find some relief for himself.

Having traveled for such a long time, and having just manipulated the flying sword as well, Qin Tian was somewhat exhausted. The two of them went to sleep separately.

Of course, these people had never been stained with human blood; otherwise, they would have met a miserable end and never had such an opportunity.

Therefore, the sage keeps his body behind, and yet his body is ahead; he treats his body as external, and yet his body is preserved. Is it not because he is selfless? Thus, he can achieve his self-interest.

In the blink of an eye, Liu Long saw his companions all kicked into the water by Qin Tian, and he was stunned into speechlessness.

The next moment, his figure immediately transformed into a bolt of lightning, racing toward the direction from which the sound had come.

Taixuan nodded in agreement and hurriedly notified Wang Chuyi, Sun Bu'er, and the others to come. Before long, Sun Bu'er and the others arrived in Ma Yu's room, with Taixuan standing by to serve.

Moreover, in the 21st century, in a place like America, for such things to still happen—it felt somewhat laughable, yet he felt that the elders of those years were so heavy with their promises.

Koke charged into the penalty area and, after cutting inside, feigned a shot. Mascherano couldn't care about anything else at that moment; he threw himself to the ground, attempting to block the shot.

Just as he prepared to stand up, he was shocked to find that he was stark naked, with nothing but his mobile phone lying on the large bluestone beside him.

Cristiano Ronaldo knew very well that this might be the only chance the number 37 would ever have to play football with him in his life. He couldn't help but feel a bit sad for this twenty-five-year-old old boy.
