Volume 1, Chapter 56: A Single-Minded Devotion Without a Doubt

Li Xiaoyao thrust his sword forward, instantly piercing a tiger-like flame monster to death, followed by a War Stomp that crushed a batch of enemies already on the brink of death.

Fireballs surged into the air, igniting the roof. The intense flames unleashed by the Six Yang Heart Sea were unimaginably fierce, burning through the roof in the blink of an eye and threatening to engulf the entire Huang estate in no time.

Lacking a proper table, Tang Shan had no choice but to spread out the chessboard and pieces right on the bed, sitting cross-legged opposite Fang Tang.

"Uncle, where did you get all this silver?" Lan Xin finally caught up with Night One, looking at her martial uncle with sparkling eyes. She knew buying things required silver, but since her martial uncle rarely went out, how was it that he always had silver no matter what he bought?

He directly summoned another fifty thousand Abyss Demon Cavalry, along with fifty thousand Armored Corpses, which were even more formidable than low-tier ghouls.

Upon entering, they first paid their respects and then promptly surrounded Zhugeding for no other reason than to demand that he allocate funds to their local branch first.

Fu Lang's words struck Qu Nange like a thunderbolt, causing her complexion to turn slightly pale.

Bottle after bottle of medicinal pills continually appeared beside him. Mo Chen himself had no idea just how many bottles of pills he had refined.

Following Mo Lan's instructions, and under the cover of night, Ye Ling brought Wolf One and Wolf Two to the Mo family residence. Seeing that the members of the Mo family were waiting for him without the slightest surprise, he couldn't help but smile, thinking how truly insidious the Mo family was.

The attendants exchanged glances; the master had been driven to the point where he could no longer walk properly, so they hurriedly hoisted Kong Rong up and carried him away.

The demonic dragons flew in all directions across the stone city, successfully drawing the attention of Luo Mo and others who were hunting down powerful experts within the city.

Anyone with a specialized skill would never be looked down upon. Therefore, although Yun Jue's temperament was unappealing, no one dared to do anything to him precisely because of his mastery in archery and horsemanship.

Thus, Bo Jinghan, who belonged to Chun Xi's inner circle, and Lu Yan, who was Qiao Shuquang's sworn brother, were respectively conscripted by the pair to act as a bridesmaid and groomsman, accompanying them through this rehearsal of the wedding.

Fortunately, Lin Cheng made a move against Xie Jingju; otherwise, none of these recent matters would likely have been resolved so smoothly. To cover his tracks, Jiang Xiaoquan suddenly visited the hotel where Su Junge was staying, revealing his train schedule back to Nanjing, only to abruptly change his itinerary when the train departed at night.

Lu Tianming wished he could tear Lu Yu into pieces, but upon seeing the man standing beside Lu Yu, his knees involuntarily went weak and he dropped to his knees.

Gasp! Hua Xiyan suddenly felt an extremely bizarre sensation creeping up from the soles of her feet, a tingling numbness spreading through all her limbs that made her shiver uncontrollably. Something that could scare someone to death? What kind of terrifying visage could that possibly be?

They were merely the most powerful batch of individuals in this world, not untouchable, invincible warriors.

"Well, it's your precious sealed bag, and you wouldn't even say what's inside, making it so mysterious!" Chunxiao threw the sealed bag at Ji Mantang the moment she entered the room. Earlier, she had asked Ji Mantang what was inside, but this damn cousin of hers refused to tell her, insisting she would only find out after she brought it here.

The imperial guards immediately surged forward from all directions, dragging the wailing Consort Xie away toward the lower levels while she flailed her hands desperately in front of her, begging for mercy.

Yet he saw through it without exposing the facade, pretending as though he had noticed nothing while speaking up on Shi Xia's behalf.

Cumin accounted for the vast majority of the seasonings Lu Yingxiu prepared, so for this planting season, Lu Yingxiu had all the tribes increase the cultivation area dedicated to cumin.

With no other choice, she had just taken in seven or eight hundred prisoners of war. Combined with her previous captives and her own people, nearly two thousand mouths now relied on her for food. The daily consumption was simply too massive, forcing Lu Yingxiu to weigh her options carefully.

Hong Haoran did not have much time left, so he could only impart a hundred types of poison and a chart of human acupuncture points to Feng Bailing as simply as possible.

He was an engineering contractor, and these men were all veteran laborers under his command, accustomed to putting on airs after drinking too much alcohol.

"As you like." Shui Han picked up the suit jacket from the side and slipped it on with a trace of disdain.

At this moment, it seemed as if he could already envision the Scarlet Sword Sect successfully annihilating the Sun and Moon Divine Cult, subsequently replacing them and reigning supreme over the entire Southern Li Kingdom.

"Then you wouldn't be thinking of giving up, would you? Though it's still quite timely if you want to quit now. There are fragrant grasses everywhere under heaven, why must you hang yourself from a single tree like my brother?" Chang Jingyan said very sincerely to Shi Xia.

"The Demon Ancestor is truly straightforward, very direct, much better than those dawdling Buddhas." The eccentric monk wore a look of utter defiance against his teachings.

Jia Shi calculated silently in her heart, then her face fell. Eight qian of silver a month amounted to less than ten taels a year; she would have to work for fifty years just to pay off the debt. Wasn't this tantamount to being a bondservant for life?

When Zhao Mei regained consciousness once more, she found herself lying on Chu Cheng's bed, while Chu Cheng sat by the bedside, gazing at her with eyes full of worry.

Qu Ran was forced to remain in the private room and had indeed encountered some trouble. However, He Chenfeng had actually witnessed this trouble firsthand. He never expected that after years of separation, his reunion with Qu Ran would take such an entirely different form. Clearly, that playboy Zhong Jian intended to bully her, yet he chose to stand by and watch.

His purpose in employing the Soul-Searching Technique was merely to find out where the higher-ups of the Feng family lived and who among them was Feng Kuang's confidant, believing that only Feng Kuang's confidants would know the true current state of the Feng family.

Yet, a few years later, this painting seemed as though it had been infused with color, framed and brought to life with such vividness. While time brought wrinkles and sagging to others, to her, it granted an increasingly exquisite and delicate refinement, as if her years were flowing in reverse compared to everyone else's.
