Volume 1, Chapter 37: Who Recruited Someone Like This?

Although Thael across from him also bore burns from Sakazuki’s magma, his overall aura had not diminished much, thanks to his astonishing regenerative abilities and formidable constitution.

The remaining bodyguards, watching the security personnel on the platform behave like gods of slaughter, were so terrified that they completely lost their will to fight.

Upon hearing that the person beside her was an intern editor for Harper’s Bazaar, Du Chan immediately blinked her large eyes and took a careful look at Wang Shanshan opposite her. She had to admit that she truly lived up to the reputation of being an editor at a premier domestic fashion magazine; Du Chan couldn't even compare to Wang Shanshan’s sense of style, let alone her LV bag.

"Do you know you were wrong?" Seeing that Li Tang remained silent for a long time, Alice felt she had caught him in a trap.

It was said that there would be photos taken after the conference ended. As the champion, he naturally couldn't slip away early, so Su Ze, feeling bored, sat in his seat and began to review his rewards.

He had thought it would just pass like that, like a dream—gone without a trace overnight, and from then on, life would return to its usual rhythm. Yet, deep in his heart, there remained a lingering melancholy, an inability to find peace.

Xue Qiang clicked the report button several times, exited the game, and looked up at the cameras mounted on the wall.

Even the cold and aloof Han Yue had a slight arc appear at the corner of her lips at that moment.

It had to be said that the breakfast prepared by Qin Anling was quite delicious, earning her repeated praise from Yu Zhuchu.

Chen Xifeng certainly knew that the single-occupancy apartments were not selling and had already planned to switch from sales to rentals, but he still wanted to hear Nangong Wan’s thoughts.

Qin Yifeng shook his head, cutting off that topic and turning to Cheng Fei; he did not want to dwell too much on the past.

As the tutor to the Crown Prince and Princess, it could be said that Lin'er and Huang'er grew up at his knees. No one understood the temperaments of that sister and brother better than he did—not even the Demon Emperor himself, who was as close as family.

The report mentioned that both police officers had died from vital points being pierced by a sharp weapon. Based on their wounds, it could be inferred that the killer had used a weapon similar to an ancient longsword.

Watching Bai Qing pour him a cup of tea, Jiang Feng remarked, "Pharmacist Bai does not seem to have studied the tea ceremony."

It appeared now that the true Emperor Alliance was unaware of the inside story, and the one who had orchestrated the ambush at Iron King City must be this young master of the Emperor Alliance, who possessed such profound cunning.

She would return to Earth a day earlier and appear before her parents a day earlier, and they would be at ease and happy a day sooner.

Luo Changfeng leaned over to look, seeing that there were quite a few figures on the city walls, though not exactly crowded; they stood in twos and threes, deathly silent.

The next morning, when they went to inspect the path the giant snake had taken, they found exactly what Qin Zhao had detected with his spiritual perception the night before: a track ten meters wide.

Zhang Tian couldn't hear any of this. Once he stepped outside, he headed toward the dormitory area. He basically knew the general location—at the northernmost end of the school. Looking at the tag in his hand, which simply read "West Wing 517," he assumed that must be his room.

As he practiced with growing intensity, the spiritual energy in his body grew restless. It surged through his arm and into the longsword. With a hum, the blade began to glow with a faint white light, striking in the midday sun.

What Yin Gezhi had actually wanted to say was that she would not die, and that Ling Shu did not need to be entrusted to him, but for some reason, the words came out sounding stiff and distorted.

Although he had taken Ai Mu out for meals before, for some reason, he felt awkward when bringing it up today.

Rou Bao never usually watched cartoons, but now she had to stare intently at the television. She worried that if she said she didn't like cartoons, her dad would think she was being willful, and then he wouldn't like her or Zhibao—and in that case, they would be without a father again.

Even Ye Chenmeng, who was known for her fiery temper, couldn't say a word at this moment. She couldn't even summon the energy to be difficult.

Considering the complexity of the Panama Isthmus's terrain, if they relied solely on manual labor for surveying, the process might take a year or two—something Li Mu and the entire Panama Canal Company could not accept.

This wasn't new cotton at all; it had been scavenged from old clothes and quilts. Given the bloodstains on the cotton, Li Mu was fairly certain it had been stripped from the dead.

Startled for a moment, Feng Yue turned her head to see Yin Gezhi sitting at the table draped in robes, holding a few sheets of paper. His lips were still deathly pale, but his expression was calm, as if he hadn't been frightened by the thunder at all.

I turned pale, and the tears in my eyes finally collapsed like a broken dam. I wept, feeling exceptionally aggrieved.

This made him very angry, so angry that he couldn't help but want to throw her, yet he dared not use any force, his heart aching intensely.

Boom! The Void Mirror, the Dragon-Patterned Gold Tripod, and the Supreme Emperor Sword all erupted with power of their own accord, striking at the Immortal-Slaying Sword Array that enveloped them.

However, having heard what Yuan Fangguo and the others said, he made a firm decision: he would definitely not marry Zhu'er, or else his life would truly be wasted.

"You are a member of the Lu family, not the Jiang family, and Jiang Fuxi has known this for a long time." That was why she had set her sights on Jiang Zhi as a blade; she knew that Jiang Zhi and Xu Jiuru would eventually destroy each other.

The next day, the three men of the Dingbei Marquis family—father and sons—woke up early to practice martial arts, running several laps around the courtyard with Jing Chen trailing behind.

"Fall back to the middle lane!" Li Jin signaled, and the others quickly pulled their totem poles and gathered in the center. If you want a one-shot push, we’ll grant your wish and give you a chance at a team fight.

Huang Yajuan was stunned, unable to even focus on questioning where the money on the table had come from.

If Zhao Jiangchuan was impressed by her learning English to such a level in such a short time, then what did that make her, the English teacher?

The financial market is a battlefield of gamesmanship; manipulating public opinion to create momentum and fooling the "leeks" are essential tactics.

The youth gently waved his folding fan, the breeze blowing the long hair hanging over his cheeks. His handsome face betrayed no expression, and his deep eyes were as bright as the stars.

Enmities are better resolved than knotted. From the moment Wu Zhongyu appeared, Feng Yun knew this battle was unavoidable, so he had been prepared and launched a palm strike of Bagua Zhang.

Wang Shi had never imagined that while iron-eating beast parents usually took care of their young, this time there were two cubs, and it took a long time to persuade her to let this one go.

These inner cores were not absorbed; they were eaten directly. That was the difference between inner cores and energy crystals.

Bizarre-looking rabbits hopped out from the vortex one by one, gathering in small groups around it, whispering to one another.
