“Stop making a scene here. I already told you that you weren’t invited. Just leave, and that will be the end of it.” Seeing his father’s blood pressure shoot up because of Jiang Ke, his complexion turning alarming, Meng En finally lost his temper.
Under such fierce fighting, the mages finally received reinforcements from L: four thousand-man units led personally by Lord Bashanzhu Ba Dao. Fully armed superhuman warriors rushed into the battle zone, and the tide of battle immediately turned overwhelmingly in their favor. The demons were no longer quite so terrifying.
When Luo Yi heard the sounds of bodies cutting through the air from all directions, she found it rather strange. Why did these men in black not attack all at once, but instead strike separately?
As it turned out, Qi Yao’s martial arts did not come entirely from the secret techniques of the Qingzhou Qi clan. The reason he possessed such profound cultivation at the age of seventeen was entirely due to his master, who was even more mysterious than Grandmaster Yun Juezi.
The technology of the people from Huangfu Star was undeniably powerful. That was an indisputable fact. But could the people of Huangfu Star not focus solely on technology? Did they not possess even the slightest trace of human feeling?
The thief known as “Turtle,” wearing armor that bulged outward across his back, said nothing. He silently covered Andre, who had his back turned to them, with a quilt. Andre still tried to struggle, but Turtle’s strength was simply too great. He had no way to resist and was soon wrapped up tightly in the thick quilt.
Over the past few days, he had heard a number of things from his mother. She had deliberately told him about them to comfort him, so the name Nangong Qian was somewhat familiar to him.
Although Doctor Cha was not as fanatical as Ni Ming, even he felt shaken when he saw this mecha. After all, it was the most advanced combat mecha in the world.
Qing Yuan, coughing up blood without pause, saw Ye Feng’s figure as though he had glimpsed the most terrifying thing in existence. Without even stopping to staunch the bleeding, he drew upon the last remnants of his inner energy and hurriedly flew into the distance.
The battle between the heads of the Ye and Nangong families had been made all the more astonishing by the sudden appearance of the Seven Flying Swan Swords. Their former illustrious renown had once again spread across the Eastern Sea region, inspiring admiration in all who heard of it.
“Nothing between us may be mentioned to anyone, including your family. Do you understand?” Ji Anqi said sternly.
Li Zicheng thought it over again. The four thousand men his nephew Li Guo had brought to reinforce them were all elite soldiers from various bases. Their fighting strength was unquestionably far superior to that of the other rebel armies, and they would not be inferior to the main forces of the imperial army.

Therefore, it was only natural for the Great Shun army to demand verification. Although it was unpleasant to feel questioned and distrusted, leaving him frustrated and stifled inside, he could only endure it.
Yun Chi accepted their ritual and began chanting the contract spell. After signing the contracts with them, he led them into the Black Ring.
The tiger had never seen such a lightweight beastman. He weighed less than the frailest animal the tiger had ever hunted, so light that it seemed the tiger could kill him without even exerting any strength.
Moon Consort, somewhat distracted and uneasy, wanted to massage Mu Zong’s forehead. But the moment she drew near, Mu Zong pushed her away. Perhaps because the injury hurt, she used all her strength and nearly sent Moon Consort sprawling to the floor.
He tentatively brushed against it, lightly at first. Then, as though suddenly remembering something, he hurriedly restrained himself and withdrew his hand. He moved away with great care, yet his deep, phoenix-shaped eyes could not help lingering on that fair, tender face, unable to tear themselves away.
After finishing her makeup, she brewed a cup of jasmine tea and then took a bottle of sleeping pills from her bag.
I do not know what kind of state of mind it came from. In any case, I was actually able to say those words in such a calm tone.
Ru Yan stretched, yawned lazily, rose, and walked barefoot to the table, where she opened the food container for Jiang Han.
They were not fools. After Zhong Litiān’s reminder, they had all thought of many things. The Ten Great Alchemists stood at the same level as the leaders of the Imperial Immortal factions.
“You’re Tang Shishi?” Chaduoyu’s drunkenness had begun to fade, and he was considerably more clear-headed.
“Da Chun and I fled here from Cangyang. Meeting everyone is fate!” As he said this, I lit another cigarette.
That was what Chen Jin said aloud, but what he thought was: What a load of nonsense. Most likely, the moment we arrived in Chongqing, you had already made your arrangements. No matter which restaurant we chose, the result would have been the same: there would be only one private room, and after we sat down, you would come in to eat as well. It had all been arranged by Qiao Zhenquan.

At that moment, Du Anguo had just returned to the entrance of his home when a ball suddenly flew back and rolled to his feet.
Suddenly, Du Wei’s second aunt could not help speaking up. She had been dealt a heavy blow that day, and in a moment of thoughtlessness, she uttered such a spiteful remark.
Zhang Yi was stunned. In his mind, Kobe had long since become an old man who had withdrawn from the cameras and disappeared from the news.
Demonic energy mixed with fierce wind and surged toward him. Hanchuan retreated with the force of it, while Wuxiangzi steadied himself with one hand pressed against his chest. With the other, he seized the mask on his face and tore it off, revealing a face marked by a vivid streak of blood.
Xiao Shenjin lay weakly on the bed, a damp cloth spread across his forehead. At first glance, he looked almost like a noble consort reclining there.
A white figure appeared behind Zhao Gao at some unknown moment, as though it had been clinging to his back all along.
It was as though she had always stood at the pinnacle of all living things beneath Heaven’s law. Perhaps she truly had. Thus, every conspiracy, struggle, life-or-death crisis, and dangerous ordeal was no more than a slightly thrilling game in her eyes—something she could participate in and feel emotions about, but those feelings were little different from watching a film or playing a game.
When Chunyu Yue heard that the Ying Fusu who had fainted in court had been treated by Xia Wuqie, his heart filled with unease. He did not return home. Instead, he stood beside the covered passage within the palace gates and waited for Xia Wuqie.
He had been allowed to eat a little from time to time. Eating too much would harm the fetus’s development and make her prone to internal heat.
This panel looked highly futuristic. It was filled with exchanges between tasks and points, and besides the things that had just been mentioned, it even contained numerous special options.
