It was a three-story, octagonal pagoda. Forged from Earth-Spirit Gold, its surface shimmered with radiant brilliance, while auspicious energy billowed upward, forming clusters of golden clouds high above it, as though it were a sacred realm of Buddhist deities from legend.

After saying this, he looked somewhat embarrassed. It was a serious blow to his pride. Failing to notice his opponent beforehand was one thing, and failing to catch up after the attack could also be excused—but he had not seen even the slightest trace of the other party. That was truly humiliating.

The Demon Sect and the Emperor Alliance had been locked in a feud for five hundred years. Its emergence dealt an unmistakable blow to the overbearing Emperor Alliance, forcing the latter to gradually rein in its arrogance and sharpness in every respect.

“In this situation, the safest course is to find him.” As Jiang Cheng spoke, he took out his phone and called Zhang Tian. Before long, Zhang Tian’s voice came from the other end. “There’s nothing I’m willing to do anymore.” His voice carried a hint of anger.

The dark galaxy was ablaze with crimson fire. Dean Zhuang’s figure gradually blurred amid the sea of Green Lotus Karmic Flames, then turned to ash.

At that moment, the drunkard and the other two were hiding behind three large trees, one behind each. Having used Wood-element talismans to conceal their forms in advance, they had merged their auras with those of the trees and gone undetected by the Nether Beast.

Yes, that was right. He had chosen a classic foreign rock song. Unfortunately, rock music was in an extremely depressed state domestically, even colder than folk music, and not many people listened to it.

In Shangjing, Zhao Shengting looked at the thunderbolts in the sky and lightly flicked a finger. A flame sprang from his fingertip and instantly incinerated the thunderous power.

Her elder sister once again grabbed her by the ear and dragged her aside to lecture her. Judging from Yihan’s dark expression and Yiluo’s howling struggle, Lin Sangbai felt that Yiluo was about to suffer a truly thorough punishment this time.

The Philippines was considered one of the luckier countries. It was permitted to enter Huaxia, but only as far as Hainan. Vietnam, Malaysia, and Thailand were treated the same way.

The night grew quieter and quieter. The wind was soft and cool, flowing like water. Yet even that watery evening breeze could not extinguish the anger burning in Madam Han’s heart.

As the Nine-Yang Divine Skill continued to circulate, Ning Xiu’s vital energy rose rapidly. Under the power of the serpent’s gallbladder, the bottleneck between the sixth and fifth ranks was utterly insignificant; with the slightest push, it shattered.

The King had only just issued his decree when Palace Attendant Wan arrived. Clearly, the circumstances behind this were anything but simple. Wei Muyi dismissed Handan and Qingluo, only then allowing Palace Attendant Wan to enter.

And so, all the experts of the Tu family, the four members of Wang Yu’s group, and Xingluo Yaya gathered together.

Dou Yifang had no idea where Liu Heng intended to take her. They left the main hall of Qingxuan Palace, exited the palace itself, and continued onward toward Youlan Palace.

He formed a sword seal with his fingers, and a sword flashed from his sleeve. His figure rose gracefully into the air, and he rode the sword to the crowd. His sharp gaze swept over them, bright and piercing like that of a hawk, inspiring awe in all who saw him.

At that moment, the people of Team Six were still discussing the case. Yan Yu held a sheet of paper in his hand, upon which a poem had been written.

Lawrence deduced that although his influence within the military would suffer a devastating blow in the short term, over time the soldiers of the original Fourth Battalion would inevitably spread his reputation among the ranks. If the opportunity arose, more soldiers might even choose to follow him.

However, after the streak of white light had flown more than thirty yards, it suddenly veered for some unknown reason and plunged headfirst into the sand dune beside the road.

Only the councilor from the Western District looked extremely out of place. His beard was unkempt, as though he had not attended to his appearance in a very long time. The brown cloak he wore had been washed until it had faded white, making him utterly incongruous among the formally dressed councilors around him.

The Death Scythe in Xinglu’s hand vanished at the same moment she apologized. Liulü, for her part, showed no intention of blaming Xinglu. She merely bent down and continued stroking the girl’s head.

Upon hearing this, Ying Zheng rolled his eyes. Compared with the fat man and the thin man, his expression had always been rather stern. Making such a face greatly damaged his dignity, which showed just how exasperated these two junior fellow disciples had made him.

A flicker of emotion passed through Di Xuyao’s heart. If Yuntu had made that choice, he had likely played no small part in it.

Yuntu’s gaze softened for an instant before becoming grave and fierce. With a turn of her wrist, she grasped the Moon God Halberd.

His medical skill truly lived up to its reputation. She had finally witnessed what genuine miraculous healing meant.

However, Zhu Houhuang no longer wished to send troops. At the very least, he had no desire to chase those savages through the mountains; it would simply be a losing proposition.

Just as Kong Yu was about to tell Leixiu to stop thanking her, she and Linyin simultaneously sensed the presence of a ghost. Although it was still far away, the danger it radiated was immense.

Broken farm tools, along with swords, spears, knives, and halberds stained with the rust-colored traces of blood sacrifices, lay scattered across the ground. Together, they formed the landscape surrounding Qitian City.

According to Tao Ran’s calculations, even if he traveled slowly this time, he should still reach Yongkang City before nightfall. But when he was still more than thirty kilometers from the city center, Tao Ran had no choice but to stop. There was a traffic jam ahead: an endless stream of cars covered the entire road, stretching as far as the eye could see.

The Luo family truly lived up to its reputation as a wealthy merchant clan. The Luo residence had been built with extraordinary luxury, indulging in every extravagance imaginable.

“No, I’m just a little dizzy. I’ll have the driver come and take my car away later,” the middle-aged man replied.

This sword belonged to Chen Yihua, so of course she recognized it. I raised the sword and gestured toward her, and she immediately understood.

All those injured in the accident were assigned to Qingcheng First People’s Hospital nearby. After the commotion caused by that family earlier, everyone knew that the Lu family’s car had dragged them into the disaster. It had truly been calamity falling from the heavens, so anger and resentment were inevitable.
