Volume 1, Chapter 31: From Another World

Ye Chen was quite surprised to hear that Emperor Qingli had been severely wounded.

The Emperor should have been in the imperial palace; why would he appear at the ancestral temple?

Could it be that the transcendent-grade black beast from moments ago was actually Emperor Qingli?

So, was the destruction of the ancestral temple the work of the Emperor himself?

"Everyone, I shall take my leave first!" Ge Hong said, transforming into a gust of wind and vanishing from the city walls.

Zhao Tai looked toward the direction of North Mountain, then withdrew his gaze to survey the iron-clad cavalry army outside the city walls.

Once the passion of the goal had erupted, the official timekeeper announced the precise moment of Li Qingshan's goal.

Having just flown up, the creature ceased flapping its wings and was pulled back toward the ground by gravity. It would likely not wake up for another three minutes.

He began to cherish his relationship with Hinata Yō, no longer viewing her as a burden, nor continuing to see them all as mere NPCs in a game—though this period of clarity did not last long.

However, this played right into Atletico Madrid's hands. Simeone had been looking for a team to test his squad's attacking prowess against the new formations they had been training on lately.

"Your Highness, please attend to your duties; I shall look after things here." After all, his official business had already been delayed by these affairs, and he truly could not afford to waste any more time.

"What about that time? Just performing it once shouldn't take that long, should it?" Zhaoyang looked into Qin Zhong's eyes, seeking confirmation.

"The position I, as a son, have promised Fei'er is that of the Empress." Just as Feng Yufei was struggling with her thoughts, a voice as gentle as jade drifted in from outside, followed immediately by the flash of Shangguan Hongye’s brilliant yellow robes.

As Li Yun sprinted toward the assembly point, the watch on his wrist suddenly vibrated violently, causing his expression to change instantly.

Upon hearing the kidnapper's voice, I realized that the other party was clearly using voice-modulation software.

"I can finally see my little brother, but I didn't prepare a gift for him." Harry felt a bit dejected. He had wanted to prepare a welcome gift, but he hadn't had the time, and Mommy had said there was no rush since the baby wasn't coming yet.

"Of course, what’s even more outrageous is that he actually tried to flirt with Tatsuki!" Ryan said, reaching out to stroke Arisawa Tatsuki’s cheek. Her lovely face flushed slightly, yet she showed no anger at such an intimate gesture, looking rather pleased instead.

However, as Takitsubo Rikō’s movements grew more intense, Frenda finally sensed that something was wrong. A very strange sensation emanated from below, a faint friction that produced something akin to an electric current, drawing a soft moan from Frenda’s lips.

Nobles like Count Julian had long since learned to control their emotions. Unless it was a genuine outpouring of feeling, they would never easily shed tears.

Looking at Li Yuling before him, the smile on Lin Zhengtang’s face stiffened considerably. For the past two or three months, the Lin Consortium had been receiving checks of varying amounts, which deeply annoyed him; Li Yuling’s bow just now felt like an arrow piercing straight through his chest.

"That is to say, time is still moving forward, but for some, the world has undergone a strange transformation, or even—in a logical sense—a reversal." Eileen weighed her words carefully, but Zero had already understood.

He was not without options, however. With a slight arch of his cold brows, a frigid killing intent erupted from his body. With a "whoosh," he charged straight at Chi Hongluo, his iron fist aiming directly for her beautiful, flower-like face.

As it stands, three of the Five Tigers of Jingxiang are currently stationed in Hulao Pass alone. Furthermore, Li Yan and Huo Jun are quite skilled in military administration; if they are tasked with holding the pass, there should be no cause for concern.

But these were matters for the future. For now, everyone present looked on with bitter smiles at the powerful, uncontrolled energy before them. With such a massive force running wild, the outcome was easy to imagine.
