Volume 1, Chapter 28: Unveiling the Conspiracy, the Dawn of Cloud City Academy
These elite families hold themselves in high regard; if an ordinary person eagerly tries to befriend them, they will simply ignore you. If Yang Dong had not performed exceptionally at the Panlong Imperial Capital Games and possessed the status of an Alchemist Guild member, the Huang family would never have fawned over him like this.
"It tastes quite good. Sister, another glass." Qiao Mei, her eyes slightly glazed with intoxication, leaned charmingly against her shoulder to ask for more.
When Gong Ming'er received the note that Jun Ziheng had secretly sent to her via his men, she could hardly believe it was real.
She did not even notice that Xue Zhiyuan's expression was darkening little by little, as if ominous clouds were gathering.
Meanwhile, Ashe and Karma were not idle; they unleashed all their skills and began to engage the enemy.
This time, it was Tian Xing's turn to look awkward. He had put on a great performance, but his true intention was to discuss this very matter. He had originally planned to bring it up in a more tactful way, but Feng Xiaochen had not followed the script and laid everything out plainly, which left him struggling to find the words.
Moreover, Wang Chao was unaware of the incident in Dean County. This suggested that Wang Chao, like Gao Ge, lived in seclusion in Junping County and had absolutely no contact with the outside world. Otherwise, he would inevitably have known at least a little about how she and Long Cong had traveled to Dean County and stayed for several days due to the panic in the Central Heavenly Mansion caused by her and Jun Ziheng.
With every basic attack, each spinning axe that whistled through the air could easily shave off more than a block of Thresh's health.
But after the incident involving "Food, Sex, and Fragrance," how could she fail to understand the true meaning behind her mother-in-law sending Tao Hong?
"Does the young lady have any guess as to how the late Emperor learned of the past between the Empress Dowager and Lu Pingzhao?" The Empress Dowager lived a life of asceticism and seclusion, disliking involvement in the harem's power struggles. Over the years, the late Emperor’s affection for her had grown thin, and he had not visited her chambers for a long time.
Dogs are animals that are often well-liked and important in the human world, and in the Mi Xing Kingdom, the proportion of dog lovers is slightly higher than in China. However, no one had paid much attention to the dog that Huang Yichen was carrying.
"I said, listen to me finish. Can you not be so impatient?" The President said, shrugging his slightly sore shoulders and stretching his body, which had sustained minor injuries. Although Shui Han had held back earlier and hadn't truly gone for the kill, he had still been injured to some extent.
"I never imagined there would be such a powerhouse in the mundane world. This is truly incredible," the bald robber sighed to himself.
She did not care about anything else—not the efficacy of the medicine nor the taste—she was solely focused on how Wang Peng had addressed her.
It was this inconspicuous number 32 who sent a long pass that put his teammate through on a breakaway! And after that, he actually wanted to sprint across half the field to look for another opportunity.
Xia Xun's voice sounded extremely abrupt here, and as it fell upon the ears of those present, their hearts trembled slightly.
Although the buildings here were not particularly magnificent, and perhaps in the eyes of those who only pursued height and grandeur, they lacked style, Shui Han immediately felt that there was an underlying harmony between this place and the temperament and cultivation realm of a celestial cultivator.
"Don't tell me the trials aren't over yet? Do I still have to pass more tests before you can give me everything?" Shui Han retorted irritably.
"You and I both know that above the fifth floor of the Alchemy Tower, there are two more levels, and there is something on the sixth floor that I wish to obtain. I hope Brother Xia will be able to assist me when the time comes!" Le Xuehan said.
Xia Xun swept his gaze across the people, a playful smile suddenly appearing at the corners of his mouth. He waved at Le Xuehan, pointing first to the wine pot on the table and then to the wine cup in front of himself.
"After I was born, my parents had Senior Li Da-yan infuse 'Night-Breaker' and 'Dream-Shatterer' into my bones and tendons. So, until I was eighteen, they remained dormant within me," Shi Jiu replied truthfully.
No one wanted to be a turtle trapped in a jar, so Zhang Yuju turned a blind eye to my behavior of staring at the door.
Lin Ye took a closer look at the properties of the "Fictional Card" revealed by the [Scan], and for a few seconds, he silently mourned for the great author "Tian Can Tu Dou."
The only explanation was that the true entrance would only reveal itself once this fake one was activated.
Even more coincidentally, ever since Yan Zu obtained this mobile phone, the events he had been drawn into were all inextricably linked to it, as if fate itself had decreed that he was destined to be embroiled in them.
This [Scan] notification made Lin Ye classify this Huang Mingfeng as extremely dangerous.
Chengba Wulin glanced at Zhang Yuju and finally opened his backpack to retrieve the reward from the previous side quest. The reward for this quest was a scroll, which contained detailed information and an introduction.
Before Meng Huan's Mo Tan and his group could even hand in a third of their prey, they heard someone shouting nearby.
Yang Yu stretched, the surroundings still filled with astonishing demonic energy. Looking at the Demon Emperor's Tomb, he looked extremely relaxed and stepped directly inside.
However, only a handful of East Heaven Gate cultivators, including the Sect Master himself, knew the reason behind this.
"A good show?" Fang Cailing and Sun Siming looked at each other, unable to imagine what kind of good show could possibly be staged.
Her name was Sun Qiaoqiao, once a notorious slut who had been in an ambiguous relationship with Zou Guanggui for many years. She had taken plenty of hits, but hadn't gained much in return. For years, she had been working tirelessly to turn her status legitimate, hoping to transform into a wealthy lady of the Zou family.
