Volume 1, Chapter 54: A Rift Between Husband and Wife

Realizing the gravity of the situation, the powerful figures of the Demon race quickly sought reinforcements from the conspiracy god Putero and other primary deities. Otherwise, judging by the aggressive stance of the Fallen Angel clan, it seemed they would not stop until the entire Demon race was completely annihilated.

"Sister, it's me." Gu Xiaobei fought back her tears, her brows trembling, and her heart fluttering wildly in fear as she struggled to suppress her sobbing voice.

"Yes! Have a safe trip, Director Cao, Director Lin!" As a security guard frequently dealing with high-ranking officials and wealthy elites, he immediately and seamlessly changed his form of address. Lin Feng could only accept it with a smile, and wrapping his arm around Cao Shuijing, he hurried away.

"Victory or defeat hinges entirely on this single moment!" Lu Feiyang realized that his ability to sense danger had manifested once again, because at this moment, he could not feel any sense of danger at all.

Although the specific outcome later proved too classified to find out, Xiao Chen firmly believed that Lin Feng must have died in Island Nation.

The two of them looked in disbelief at those two fellows, then turned their gaze back to Beidou, who was lowering his head and leisurely sipping his tea.

"I ask you, before Denait fell, where exactly did he go?" Glorious God Gloria asked with majesty.

The generals on top of the city walls exchanged glances, each seeing a mixture of solemnity, hope, relief, and apprehension in the others' eyes.

It could be said that this offensive was the most powerful outburst of their alliance, launched with the resolute determination to burn their boats behind them.

Yet now she was pregnant with a child, and it was Li Haonan's child. The mere thought that she was carrying Li Haonan's child inside her womb made her vision swim with darkness. Intense despair and humiliation left her gasping for breath; she did not want to bear this demonic bloodline.

Naturally, these two knives were not ordinary items either. According to Li Zhi's description, they were crafted from the chassis of imported trucks written off in traffic accidents.

Yagyu Jubei cast aside his dual blades, his single eye precisely locking onto the position, and bringing his hands together, he executed the "Mu-dotori" technique.

"When romance strikes, it comes instantly. My romantic fortune has finally arrived." Ma Qi had never been so happy. Watching the departing Lu Ailin, he uttered these words, his heart overflowing with joy.

First it was Wang Haoming and Zheng Mengting, and now Chen Qing and Liao Chengsheng were also coming to buy this kind of stone. What on earth was going on here?

After Wang Haoming took it, he discovered that it was merely a shovel head with hollow, inward-spinning threads at the base, presumably used for connecting to a wooden pole.

Originally, Li Chen had asked Diana to inquire about the progress of the engagement, but it seemed he truly did not need to concern himself with it anymore. Well, being a puppet on a string was not such a bad choice after all.

Mao Yong's resignation went smoothly, and he had already returned to his hometown in Shaanxi. However, since the land needed for Li Zhi's Tibetan mastiff kennel had not yet yielded any clear prospects, he told Mao Yong to spend more time with his parents in his hometown and return after half a month. Mao Yong's actions still retained the style of a soldier—swift and decisive.

Although it was within expectations that such an item couldn't just be bought casually at a regular apothecary—and if it could, that so-called golden ginseng must be nothing more than worthless trash—he still felt a trace of disappointment.

Hearing the creaking sounds of his fingers and toes grinding beneath the torture press, along with the faint snapping noises, Yanyu felt her entire body involuntarily shudder.

"Since they were prepared long ago, transferring the deceased from the neighboring ramen restaurant to Lu Ailin's ramen restaurant was entirely orchestrated by Chen Hu alone. It seems Wang Da was lying again. What progress has been made regarding Zhang Liu?" Although Tang Lord was deep in thought, he still needed to ask Li San about the details.

Staying at the Chu residence for three days, she discussed many matters with her father. The upcoming turmoil was inevitable, and the preparations in the new capital were not yet complete. She needed to return to the palace early to arrange the final deployments.

However, the ensuing pain of her skin being sliced open told him that was merely the beginning. The golden blade missing the bodyguard did not mean it could not kill him.

None of the brothers had ever witnessed such a massive sandstorm before. Beneath their lingering anxiety was a mixture of excitement and curiosity about this novel phenomenon.

Although firearms were unnecessary in a major battle, it was always wise to be prepared—who knew when they might come in handy? Just like this time, when unknown assassins opened fire on them repeatedly, they could no longer afford hesitation and naturally had to use firearms to retaliate.

In the silent night, the two of them were the only ones awake in the Zhang residence. The cat near his feet rubbed against Zhang Xu's hand, letting out a lazy yawn.

"But I want to play games right now!" To hell with studying! With his current knowledge and intelligence, did he still need those boring, naive children's courses?

After a long while, the door opened once again. Imperial Physician Yan walked out looking extremely worried, hurried down the steps, and set off as if heading out on urgent business.

His skin had a healthy wheatish tone, and the curve from his shoulders and neck to the lines of his elbows was miraculously perfect. And those beautiful arms possessed a taut, powerful strength; one could easily imagine how peaceful and secure she felt every night sleeping nestled in the crook of his arm.

Gesang was like an enraged lion, his eyes wide open. His knuckles cracked as he squeezed his fists. While the hired thug from the Han Hong Sect was still lost in his own thoughts, Gesang had already slowly walked up to his side.

Exhaling a long breath, Lianyan remembered that she was the one who had taught him this, only to find he still remembered it.

Emperor Tianzuo nodded in agreement. Having already changed into civilian clothes, the group quietly retreated through the Western City Gate. However, it was impossible for him to evacuate everyone; he could only choose to take a select group of people with him, leaving a force of just over three thousand soldiers to escort his departure.

Upon learning that Nivea was dissatisfied with the meals, Terry immediately placed the matter at the very top of his priority list.

This caused even Lian Ling to frown slightly. The Five Elements Sect had indeed cast all their chips on Gui Xuanyin, swearing to regain control of the blessed land of Cuiyu Palace.

The longer he spent with Taichu, the more Ye Nan realized that finding anyone in this desolate spiritual continent who could surpass Taichu in both spiritual arrays and cultivation realms was simply impossible.

Although Seton, having learned the inside story, was somewhat reluctant to leave, under Jane's insistence—and considering that Jane's safety issues had already been resolved—he agreed to travel along with Cyrus.

Days passed slowly, and three months later, the residents of the villa had left their sorrows behind, bonding closely together like a real family.

Li Hao felt a surge of excitement inside. If it were truly possible to control people without arousing their resentment, he could safely select a group of individuals and teach them the arts of cultivation.
