Mo Chou opened her eyes. The true nine-tailed fox had saved her. She sat up and watched as the nine-tailed fox pounced on another fox.

The man froze. He had never seen beauty like Buyu’s before, and he was utterly dazzled by it. For a moment, he stood there dumbfounded. Buyu was exchanging glances with Xiuyuan. The man looked at Xiuyuan, then at Buyu, and suddenly understood.

“Far too ruthless. Absolutely ruthless.” On the way back, seeing the state of Gongsun Yinbo’s two fractured arms, both the Second Elder and Gongsun Yinbo’s father wore furious expressions. His mother needed no mention—by then, she was already sobbing uncontrollably.

“Night Curtain, I’ve increased the potency of this year’s pills. In other words, after you take them, your momentum will become even stronger,” the Tutor said calmly.

At that moment, Sun Qian, Han Yu, and Li Lin were chatting and laughing together, when a person approached from the side, carrying a bottle of red wine and looking aggressive.

“Thank you for the reward, sir!” The two men were slippery, swaggering soldiers. As soon as Xu Shu spoke, they immediately bowed respectfully to Xie Xin.

Yi Yang, squatting nearby and smoking, watched the three soldiers mutter among themselves. Although he could not hear what they were saying, he was certain they were discussing how to deal with him.

The instant the ripples spread outward, a circle of visible magical inscriptions suddenly began rotating violently within the fiery skeleton.

Kong Jing placed the fruit on Xiuyuan’s table and glanced around the meditation room. An incense burner sat on the table, thin wisps of smoke rising from it.

Li Yunfeng had a feeling that the selection of the next heir to the Academy Venerable might finally bring that young lord into the open.

By then, Tencent already had more than five hundred million users. It was a giant among communication tools and had even contacted Jiangyan Corporation. Yet Tencent was not looking to advertise on Weibo; it wanted to acquire Weibo, clearly recognizing its potential.

“I think so too. There’s no need to wait for the policy to be announced. Who knows when that will happen?” Guang Fumin said.

In their hearts, only evil demons possessed such an attack method. Yet Zhang Sanshi did not give them the slightest impression of being an evil demon.

The two spent the night in the dilapidated house. The next morning, Fourth Master Wang suddenly sat up. After waking Shen Sisi, he said with a frown:

Unfortunately, Leng Yi realized it too late. Just as he turned to flee, flaming arrows began shooting into the dense forest.

Fang Qin did not dare say the last sentence aloud, afraid that Lin Feng would become angry. Lin Feng, however, paid no attention and merely nodded heavily. The battle between the two phantom beasts seemed to be about to begin in earnest.

Shen Meijia stepped out of the car without a word and looked up at the sign for the Hundred Banquets Hall. A fleeting glimmer passed through her eyes, and then she strode inside without stopping. Seeing this, Liu Wu immediately summoned his men and rushed in front of her.

When Yan Zijing said this, Yuyan, who was recuperating in the Celestial Realm, suddenly awoke with a start. Her face was pale, and she looked terrified. Xu Qinwen hurried over, gently placed her right hand against Yuyan’s forehead, and asked:

The three old men took turns examining and playing with it, yet all the while they remained frowning, looking at one another in confusion. Finally, the old man in the middle said:

“Where is Yan Wu? Did he defect to your side?” Uncle Song still found it impossible to believe and could not help asking loudly.

The old lady had forgotten that when Jia Zhu passed the provincial examination years ago, she had been overjoyed, sent invitations to her close relatives, and hosted several tables of guests. Indeed, the affection formed by raising someone oneself was different.

“Old man, can you still hold on?” Lin Yuhan teasingly made a face at the old village chief.

In the elegant musical fountain, the mermaid princess standing at its center ceaselessly spouted water from her mouth, which splashed down into the pool.

I cleared my throat. “There’s something I don’t know how to bring up.” A flicker passed through Xuan Shitian’s eyes. He knew that I truly had something to say. His tense, dark eyes immediately narrowed sharply, and he obediently pricked up his ears, adjusting himself into his usual attentive listening posture as he looked at me.

“How is it, A-Qi? Does it feel all right?” Chen Chumo asked A-Qi, who had just returned to his senses after tasting the premium product.

Besides, he knew that the maids in the old lady’s chambers were exceptionally skilled at discerning her thoughts. Often, their smallest gestures represented the old lady’s intentions.

At Jiayu’s words, the smile frozen at the corners of her mouth abruptly vanished, while her deep-blue eyes gleamed with a sharp, icy light.

She did not bother guessing which one it was. When she arrived at Rongfu Hall, she first gathered the old servants left behind by the old lady who had not yet had time to pack up and leave.

“Damn, this really is the Dragon Pearl of Grand Luo Enlightenment. Whose the hell is this?” Perhaps he had spent too much time with Zhang Sanfeng, because even the King of Hell could not resist swearing aloud.

She raised her eyes and followed the light. Beside the head of the bed hung a sword. Its scabbard was extraordinarily ancient, faintly radiating a cold gleam that appeared particularly bright in the darkness.

“I defeated you with a single move. You should have nothing left to say now, right?” Ling Feng walked down from the elevated platform step by step, looking no different from an ordinary person.

After finally escaping the ground littered with livestock dung, he saw piles of battered weapons stacked to one side. The bows had no strings, the arrows no shafts, and the blades and spears were rusted. Several old soldiers were repairing them at an unhurried pace.

Hearing Colonel Liu’s words, the mercenaries felt reassured. Raising their long blades, they joined the Qin family’s men and charged toward Ling Feng fearlessly.

Deep in the mountains and ancient forest, Ling Feng wore nothing but a pair of undergarments. His entire body was covered in body-tempering ointment, which released an intensely scorching sensation.

Ye Feng glanced at the two men, then turned without hesitation and leaped from the cliff. Like a meteor, he streaked across the pitch-black sky. His body plummeted at incredible speed into the bottomless abyss, vanishing from sight in an instant.

“Heh heh, this damned world has finally opened a door for me!” Chu Yuan sat on the ground, panting heavily. Only after forcing himself to take two breaths did he barely manage to calm down.

Soldiers in golden armor stood before the three palace gates. All of them were powerfully built, and profound energy faintly trembled around them. Clearly, they were cultivators with considerable strength.

The so-called Northern State Region Artifact Refiners’ Guild—the headquarters of all the Artifact Refiners’ Guilds throughout the Northern State Region—now appeared to be nothing special after all.

After being eagerly awaited by everyone, Wang Yan finally opened the door at a leisurely pace, though no one knew how much more time she had wasted inside the room.

A middle-aged man wearing a black top hat and apparently from a foreign country approached from the opposite direction. By an unfortunate coincidence, he bumped into Jiang Xia’s shoulder. Instinctively, Jiang Xia began to apologize, but the pain kept her from raising her head. She continued looking down at the feet of the person who had collided with her.
