Chapter 45

Although Su Ran had never witnessed the tragic state of the divine physician's death, she felt certain that he had not committed suicide, but was instead murdered.

Off to eat! Free from the urge of waking up early, with ready-made ingredients, clothes, and shelter at her disposal, a life without worrying about food, clothing, housing, and transportation was simply too cozy.

Within such a short span of time, relying on live-streamed e-commerce, his popularity skyrocketed, earning praise from numerous netizens.

The next second, Qiao Meina felt a sharp pain once more, collapsing directly onto the sofa, whimpering softly with silent tears.

She turned her head, and the figure in the black robe immediately lowered his gaze; before the supreme master of all spirits, he was merely a humble attendant.

He was genuinely terrified of being devoured by the black cat, which would have been an absurdly unjust fate. As the Ancestral Dragon, he was destined to traverse the four seas and dominate the Primordial World—how could he possibly die here?

Hidden behind the scenes, Wu Jiaquan leaned back in his computer chair, his feet propped up on the desk, his toes twitching rhythmically while a vicious and satisfied smile played on his lips.

Just in the final days of the year, several guests hailing from the Southwest brought yet another congratulatory gift for the New Year.

Saint White-Singing was initially overwhelmed with astonishment and shock, but a moment later, an expression of wild ecstasy appeared in his eyes.

Moreover, their demeanors and manners of speech were quite distinct; Ziyao always gave people a feeling of a gentle spring breeze, whereas Yaochi was surrounded by a faint, oppressive majesty.

However, this time the Abyss-Burying Dragon required three full attempts to shatter the Moon-Swallowing Bell. At the instant the bell shattered, Han Lang suffered a heavy blow, and a mouthful of fresh blood instantly spewed out.

As the sword light flashed, that terrifying devouring force also spread outward, colliding violently with the joint strike of the three individuals.

Thinking of this, Fuxi hardened his heart, unleashing the primordial chaos power throughout his entire body to condense into the chaotic elemental force that formed the universe. This primordial chaos force was the highest and most primitive of all energies, which naturally made the giant beast feel comfortable.

Upon hearing this, the bystanders were instantly startled, their faces bearing a trace of shock as they recognized the newcomer's identity and gasped repeatedly in disbelief.

Therefore, at this moment, he was heading toward the Spirit Value Tower of the Dragon Chant Sect's outer sect, preparing to exchange for the sword techniques and martial arts he needed there.

Although I knew my cousin was definitely just teasing me and wouldn't actually let me eat it, I still swallowed my saliva unusefully.

The room was silent, save for the crisp sound of the spoon clinking against the soup bowl and the soft sound of each other's breathing.

Li Yijie tightened his grip, squeezing Nangong Xue's bones as if they were about to shatter, yet she bit her lower lip fiercely without crying out in pain. She knew all too well that the agony in Li Yijie's heart was far greater; since she was powerless to help him resolve his troubles, the only thing she could do was let him vent.

His companions were startled. One of them mustered the courage to step forward and examine the wound, while the others checked the surroundings for potential ambushers, and a few more proceeded to deal with Shunzhi. This division of labor was originally extremely clear-cut, but just as they assumed their stances and before they could take formal action, the exact same condition that struck the first man befell them, and they fell to the ground dead.

As a result, the Ink Wolf King was warned by Han Lang: as long as it dared to make a move, Han Lang would never teach them any other secret techniques again.

This matter caused quite a stir. Fang Dagun even renamed the cement plant under the Apple brand, along with the honeycomb briquettes and floor slabs. By attaching the prefix to the coal mine, he wanted to create a brand effect.

"What a coincidence, Mr. Balfour! When did you arrive in Shanghai?" Chen Zaixing put on a surprised expression, spreading his arms wide in a welcoming gesture.

As for veterans, they would play a few rounds, and if they felt their luck was bad or their state was poor, they would immediately withdraw. This required self-control. One must not be obsessed by gambling. Easy to say, but too many people fall into gambling and end up losing everything.

Speechlessly tossing the items directly to Danse, Chen Yufan turned around and walked downstairs. Speaking of which, Wang Xi's impression on Chen Yufan was far better than Danse's.

"You're courting death!" Although surprised by the person secretly assisting the Chen family, seeing Chen Xiaotian and the other two daring to take the Child of Darkness away, Lucifer no longer hesitated at this moment.

"Judging by this posture, it should be a resurrection..." Chen Yufan thought with depression, hoping inwardly that this resurrection wouldn't make Sarah even more aberrant.

The two hundred odd personal guard knights subordinate to Carter, along with the other personal guard knights who surrendered alongside him, were like helpless lambs bound with ropes and pushed to their knees on the ground. With ashen faces, they gazed at the endless Fantian army outside the city, trembling all over as they felt the bone-chilling coldness emanating from the ruthless blades pressed against their necks.

Knowing full well that the navy had their strategies, the pirates naturally would not simply submit. As Whitebeard tore off his long coat and cast it aside, the pirates' counterattack began.

"Damn it, this will only make Spanish civilians resist the brutal plundering of the French even more." Sahi continued his moral reproaches, though his voice grew somewhat weaker. Perhaps his true objective had already been achieved, as long as the military officials didn't intend to increase the budget for the dominion government's military expenditures next year.

Lily wanted to say something more, but she was interrupted by Li Lin. As for how he interrupted her—well, since both of Li Lin's hands were currently resting on Lily's shoulders, what else could everyone possibly think Li Lin had besides his mouth to stop Lily from speaking?

With a muffled "thud," before the thief could even turn around, he was struck off balance, staggering and collapsing face-first onto the ground, looking just as pathetic as his companion from earlier.

As time passed, bone after bone detached from the skeletal wings behind You Kuang's back, turning to gray dust, while the intensity of You Kuang's martial breath welcomed breakthrough after breakthrough.

This kick was both fierce and sudden. Taken completely by surprise, the soldier staggered, stumbling forward a couple of steps before regaining his balance, while Jin Yanling, still dazed, fell straight into another embrace.

"Missiles!!!!" The furious roar of the artillery officer interrupted Rajev's sentimentality, as dozens of missiles trailing stubborn smoke trails lunged toward Natzak.

"It looks like he's been unconscious for quite a while," Roy thought to himself, wondering whether his companions were still safe and sound during this time. He released his spiritual sense to secretly probe the surrounding life aura, and after sensing several steadily beating life signals, the boulder hanging in his heart gradually settled.

Roy didn't want to dwell on it any longer, forcing himself to stand up lightly. Now that the volcanic eruption had ceased and normal weather had returned outside, it was time to leave the mountain bear cave, head up the peak, and reunite with his companions. There was no sense in overthinking other matters.

"Go ahead. Being the young master of the Iron House isn't an easy job these days, but since you've taken it on, you must manage it well!" Senior Brother Liu nodded, patting Wu Feng's shoulder to reassure him that everything was fine, signaling Wu Feng to go attend to his own business.
