"Mother, do not worry. Lulu is not a mischievous child. Wait for her at the pastry shop; if Lulu comes back, she will be able to find you. Let us go and ask around first," Jiang Huai'an forced down his panic, repeating this reassurance in his heart.

Gradually, the people living on this continent sensed that something was amiss and rushed out of their homes one after another.

As soon as Wei Yan sat down, he engaged in a sharp verbal sparring match with Yan Zhimomo, but clearly, he was no match for her.

Of course, among them were also some clueless officials of the Ministry of Punishments who looked down upon Zhuge Xianyv's independent and idiosyncratic style, attempting to suppress him or even have him removed from office. Yet every single time, the outcome was miserable for them. This was why a witty saying circulated within the Ministry of Punishments: "The ministers flow like water, but Zhuge Xianyv is as iron."

In today's society, perhaps only the depths of the great mountains still preserve such primitive, untouched dwellings, right?

"What do you mean killed? It was just a couple of harsh words, how could it turn into murder?" Lu Youyou looked at her in utter astonishment.

Putting everything else aside, the fact that Luo Cheng had shared life and death with the two of them, running errands and handling all their messy affairs, had already built up more than enough goodwill in their hearts. Now that the imperial envoy had just departed, before anyone could fully recover their senses, it was time to settle old scores.

However, the nearby residents were also woken up. After all, the dog's continuous, miserable howling in the middle of the night was quite eerie, making it impossible for anyone to sleep.

Had Jiang Guifeng come to look for Su Ye sooner, he naturally would have found a way to make those few countries vanish from the Blue Star without a sound.

Xie Lingfei's expression shifted. Without wasting any breath, he slammed his foot all the way down on the accelerator. Under the high-speed motion, Lin Zuzu once again felt the powerful surge of acceleration pushing her back into her seat.

Seeing this, Meng Tianzheng wore a completely expressionless face on the outside, while inwardly crying out in shock at such masterclass acting.

Based on his current cultivation consumption, the combined demands of himself, Suying, and the seventy-second branch lineage were enough to match the requirements of four eighth-rank elementalists.

Lin Zuzu forced a twisted smile, and a dark, sinister glow began to radiate from her body.

Her clear eyes rarely held a trace of anger. She then rose to her feet, resembling a long sword just drawn from its scabbard; her mere presence alone outshone the sword intent of countless others.

Huang Yueyao watched Song Yan without speaking for a long time, her patience gradually wearing thin, causing her voice to rise slightly.

Under such circumstances, martial artists—who served as the supplementary power for Star Refiners—alongside the martial arts tournaments held around them, had undoubtedly become the largest sporting events in the entire country and across the entire Tianyuan Federation.

The story starts in a music conservatory, where a young man practicing the drum kit late at night is discovered by a renowned coach who notices his relentless hard work and offers him a shot at training.

In contrast, it was much easier for Fang Yi to leave campus, as the rules of Fangqingting University were not nearly that strict.

Under the scrutinizing gazes of his sisters at home, Liao Xiurong braced against the pressure and voiced his thoughts.

Naturally, she hated Hawkins to the bone for treating her that way; she certainly wasn't trying to save him now, nor would she ever go back with him. It was simply that she refused to let him be captured by Cobra because of her.

The vice patriarch drifted down before the patriarch. Far more concerned about the patriarch's condition, Cheng Que felt a deeper pang of heartache over the vice patriarch's fate. He prioritized checking on the vice patriarch first, because although the patriarch was weak and heavily wounded, Cheng Que judged—based on his perception of the special spirit-attached constitution—that the patriarch was temporarily safe.

"Let her go? Heh? Why the hell haven't you knelt down yet? Do you want to watch her die?!" Hearing Liu Yong's naive plea, a sneer of mockery surfaced on Zhao Wei's face. He then pressed the sharp knife closer to Xie Lizi, roaring hysterically at Liu Yong.

"You—you fucking dare hit me?" Yue Liangliang stared in utter disbelief at the chubby man in front of him. Before he could even process how he had just received that slap across the face, he instinctively began spewing curses.

Unleashing supreme might, his golden body erupted. Sun Xichen slowly returned to his true form, coughing up mouthfuls of dark blood as he plummeted from mid-air, crashing heavily into the ground below.

"Melun? Are you talking about that fifth-tier old sorcerer in the Senate?" Hearing those words, Liang Long felt his heart skip a beat. He suddenly recalled the First Sorcerer of the Silver Glow Kingdom—who was also Princess Linda's fiancé Cassadin's biological grandfather.

Though the statement sounded calm and unruffled, it had already conveyed Yun He's intent to Lin Moxue in a very subtle manner.

Today, only a single arena remained in the martial arts arena, set up dead center in the venue. A warning line was cordoned off around it, beyond which stood the general spectators. The audience had already filled the seats by now; if not for the security guards and police constantly maintaining order, it was likely that even the pathways for the contestants to enter would have been completely blocked.

A giant python of that size—that was a legend in the city! It would come with all sorts of perks—subsidies, bonuses! Feeding on wild animals like you mentioned? What's that compared to anything? If they could bring this giant python into the zoo, the government would provide it with wild game meals every single day!

At that moment, Ya'er Shi also sensed that the atmosphere felt somewhat off. The look he cast toward Uncle Jin was laden with apology and guilt, but even more so, he saw the rims of Uncle Jin's eyes—as he looked down at his teacup—gradually turning red, moist yet filled with infatuation.

"The you on this side is a lot weaker than the one on the other side. Oh wait, no—I am a lot stronger," Yan Long turned his head back, a pitch-black mask now covering his face.

"Stop reminiscing for a moment, what on earth is going on here? Didn't we pass out? Why are we here now? And why have these demi-humans suddenly become so friendly?" Strong Wind interrupted the conversation between Yin Ling and Yun'er, pressing for answers.

Fu Yan snapped awake instantly. Opening his eyes, he found himself lying in a pool of lake water, the freezing wetness having soaked completely through his body.
