Chapter 49
In a broad sense, the entire Hoh Xil region actually encompasses the Qiangtang Grassland in northern Tibet, the area south of the Kunlun Mountains in Qinghai Province, and the vast adjacent territories in Xinjiang bordering Tibet and Qinghai, naturally including the Hoh Xil Nature Reserve and the Three-River-Source National Park.
To supply the ever-increasing number of demons, Doro ordered the dark mage apprentices to construct several additional human-faced worm breeding chambers.
Through the captives' accounts, Wang Ping gained a clear understanding of what the former Central Plains continent looked like now. Serving as a subordinate to high-ranking figures of the Heavenly Eye Sect, this captive naturally possessed a horizon far beyond that of the wanderers roaming the wasteland.
Just then, the Hellfire Phoenix let out a sudden, high-pitched, piercing cry. Her body contracted and then expanded, and with a muffled pop, an illusory phantom emerged all around her—a phantom that was unmistakably the exact image of the phoenix tattooed across her back.
If the next Brave Demon is to be awakened, the seal planted within its body must be undone.
Lanzi said this was a great idea with huge profit potential. She encouraged Lilac to go ahead and pursue it boldly, assuring her that she had a rock-solid backing behind her.
The burly man's voice was strong and resonant. Realizing that the three people by the road were not ordinary wasteland drifters, he greeted them first out of politeness and caution.
The young girl, having returned from the New Year holiday, complained to our mother about this matter. It had been clearly agreed that she would take charge of the fruit grove herself, but in the end, they went back on their word. Strolling among the blossoms in the orchard, she truly felt a bitter taste in her heart. After pleading with her third uncle every which way, she presumably extracted some benefits in exchange for the smile that finally returned to her face.
Seeing this, the remaining neighbors quickly closed their doors and remained indifferent, terrified of being implicated.
"I didn't take it to heart. I just think anyone with that kind of mindset must be hilarious," Ning Yuanlan said, suppressing a smile as she took another sip of soybean milk.
Yamanaka Yukimori, the only reason you are where you are today is because you slept with the Lady of the Castle! Otherwise, what great enterprise could a blindly obedient, foolishly loyal fool like you ever accomplish?
After a thorough search, they had reaped quite a haul from this tide pool: seven or eight flower eels and conger eels, four seven-spot sea bass, two octopuses, four black porgies, dozens of rockfish, along with these two stonefish, a pile of whelks, and oysters. This tide-combing expedition was a huge success, and both the adults and children had a wonderful time.
When the dagger in her hand was dropped once more, Jinghui suddenly caught sight of the crown still resting upon the platform.
With his explosive temper, Chen Xiao clenched his fists and charged straight forward instantly, leaving several officials with no time to pull him back.
Yet given the present chaotic state of the Oda clan, even knowing the injustice, what power did they have to demand justice from the Shogun?
With her exquisite appearance, ageless beauty, and political methods quite unlike those of the ancients, Uesugi Miyuki was certain her father must be a transmigrator.
"You have a treasure on you!" Baisha had already relaxed during the conversation with Yihuang, but she never expected that a single sentence from the other party would nearly cause her to lose her color.
"How about the Thousand Arrows Piercing Team?" Ling Feng had just sidled over at that moment when Xiyue kicked him flying. Meeting you truly means facing a thousand arrows piercing the heart for her.
Not only that, but the keys to the rooftop door were held exclusively by the general manager and deputy manager of the security department. The access system was dual-layered: physical keys paired with iris scans.
Li Ji used his dragon eyes to observe the flow of spiritual energy through his meridians. When the vital qi reached the optimal position, he instantly unleashed a powerful mental force, his deep eyes seeming to hold infinite charm.
Sang Yu's body involuntarily tensed up. Suddenly, she grabbed his hand, and Shen Peichuan raised his head to look at her while she was looking right back at him.
Although that young man in white clothes was blind, his ears were extraordinarily sensitive. Before the leaves even reached his face, he leaped up, and with a gentle wave of the paper fan in his hand, all the leaves fell to the ground.
Though today's match ended in defeat, being able to see his wife and children the moment he walked through the door filled Sauer's heart with warmth.
The week-long intensive training had come to an end, and the players returned to their respective clubs, preparing for the league matches just a few days away.
The Wolf thought for a moment, recalling that the lowest-ranked S-class hero seemed to be Thunder Shazam, that guy who had suddenly emerged as an S-class hero a few years ago.
Upon hearing this, Dian Hua looked in surprise at the plump, round-faced old man whose expression was filled with kindness and warmth.
Having heard the gunfire and seen the bodies of their comrades, and having confirmed that it was done by the few civilians near the carriage, they charged directly over.
The affairs of the Dragon Realm were finally completely resolved. Under her own assistance, her mother successfully restored the "True Dragon Empire." Given time, her mother's cultivation would gradually recover. In the future, might there even be a possibility of her ascending to the realm of the Taboo?
"Dad, this time you simply must stand up for your son. That trash Xi Tianming actually kicked me out!" Han Cheng sat on the sofa, waving his arms and shouting with a grievance-filled expression, clearly provoked to a great extent.
Qiu Yan tugged at Yu Ge's hand, her mind full of words she wanted to say—for instance, didn't you know your master is a mysophobe? How could he cook for you? No, wait, how could he possibly take on a disciple at all! Yet with all those words on the tip of her tongue, not a single one could she actually voice.
Seeing the surrounding mercenaries scattering in all directions, Beidou made no move to stop them. They were merely a pack of ants; if she set her sights on their lives, fleeing to the ends of the earth would be futile.
"Fine, fine, we'll send you back. By the way, to achieve his goal, Zhu Tian-qi broadcasted you globally. Your reputation is bound to be shattered to pieces now. What do you plan to do?" Lei Mingyun asked.
Situ Wan'er said, "I believe that with your comprehension, you are bound to gain something in this place."
It was the first time she had seen her father this furious. Jinning glanced at him once, then lowered her head, not daring to lift it again, only sensing Li Chongguang's beard trembling with anger on his chin.
