41 Little Chick (Second Update)

It is unknown how much time had passed when the old man’s figure slowly materialized. Ye Luo remained seated cross-legged upon the surface of the sea, his expression devoid of joy or sorrow.

Witnessing Cai Yu’s death, Qin Yan shook his head. He felt as though all of this were a performance, steeped in dramatic irony.

"Yes, do not worry, I will be fine." Mu Jingnian could not fathom why the Huo family would poison Qin Yan, especially since it was Qin Yan who had helped Yan Yaxin secure her marriage.

Then, at that very moment, the first wave of reinforcements finally arrived. In the blink of an eye—no more than a few breaths—Ai was surrounded by over a dozen Anbu ninjas who had rushed to the scene.

"Disciple Yan Ge pays respects to the Hall Master. I did not know of your return; my sins are unforgivable." Yan Ge knelt on one knee before Shentian. Upon hearing Yan Ge’s words, Zhuo Xuanling, Zilin, and Bingfeng stared at Shentian in disbelief, especially Zhuo Xuanling.

Why was Su Yao no longer involved? Because the Southern Barbarian warriors initially suspected that, besides themselves, other alien factions had meddled in their operations.

However, what would happen to Ai if the world killed Hashirama? A daughter killing her own father—there is no greater human tragedy than this. How would a grown-up Ai face her mother?

After all, in today’s trials, Ye Luo and this young powerhouse were the most formidable existences; at the very least, no other experts capable of threatening them had appeared.

Before the two of them could react, Jiang Wan’er grabbed their legs and slammed them onto the ground, one after another, with a series of loud thuds.

I had heard of the infamous reputation of Chancellor Pei Xun. Yet, during our first meeting at Linju, I was captivated by his aloof and elegant demeanor. His eyes were not sinister; though cold, it was the coldness of someone in a position of power—a coldness that inspired yearning.

When the siblings underwent their first transformation, they could not withstand the immense power. Although they destroyed the mechanical beast, they were also injured and fell unconscious.

Xu Yuqin shook her head. "I am fine." She then walked past them to her seat, her gaze fixed on Ye Xingchen, her eyes filled with reluctance and worry.

Shi Zhen pushed Shi Meng away and stepped forward; the two of them exchanged blows, trading punches back and forth in a heated brawl.

"Your Majesty, why have you come?" Qu Rumei had heard that morning that the Emperor had a mountain of work to process; how did he suddenly find the time to come here?

Duan Jingqing felt satisfied, casting an approving glance at Qin Zhongjin before ordering the camp to be struck immediately so they could continue their advance.

Even more unexpectedly, Xiahou Long was uncharacteristically firm for once, demanding that his birth mother, Concubine Xiu, and his wife, Lady Lin, accompany them on the journey.

The so-called "Peerless National Scholar" was merely a title he had carved out because he could not bear to see any more displaced souls. He killed for his own pitiable self, and he showed no mercy to his pitiable enemies.

Shi Zhen allowed her to punch and struggle, but no matter how she lashed out, his arms remained wrapped around her, refusing to let go.

"If that is the case, then I quit." After holding it in for a long time, Li Mixin finally managed to choke out these words.

His speed surged violently as he charged forward once more. In an instant, a white shadow streaked before the crowd—it was the Wind-Hissing Beast. Lin Yi leapt up abruptly and landed squarely on the creature’s back.

While cursing the opponent, Wang Nanbei did not rise; instead, he pulled three grenades from his person and, in a matter of seconds, hurled them outward.

With no time to think, Qiu Wanchi poured his life’s cultivation and every ounce of his strength into his martial techniques, attempting to fend off the eight blue meteors crashing down upon him.

Meanwhile, Lu Yue clenched her fists tightly, her eyes fixed intently on Lin Yi, her face etched with deep anxiety.

Ten minutes—in normal circumstances, it would pass in a flash. But at this moment, it felt as though half a lifetime had elapsed.

Thinking of this, "Nicole" exerted even more force, thrusting the dagger toward Wang Nanbei with all her might. Feeling the pressure, Wang Nanbei’s lips curled slightly, and his right hand twisted her wrist like a pair of pliers.

Wei Jie shook his head in a daze. The person before him was undoubtedly Zhu Yingtai; there were no traces of makeup on her face, and it was unlikely she was wearing a mask to play a prank on him. Yet, how could such an unbelievable thing exist in this world?

Every word Zhang Yi spoke sounded reasonable, yet each one struck those immortals like a heavy hammer, leaving them deeply frustrated.

Only the open space leading to the Shennongjia primeval forest remained free of explosions. In the panic, we had no choice but to rely on the Flower Monkey’s nose. Behind us, a barrage of explosions erupted. Fat Dragon grabbed Qin He and Li Qianni, moving slowly, but fortunately, Liu Qiang protected their rear.

The researchers in the third laboratory of the Byron experimental module built a model of the Ziyang and launched it beyond the atmosphere of the planet Helka.

It was not that Zhang Jinshi looked down on her, but from head to toe, what part of her looked like someone capable of marrying into a wealthy family?

As for what it actually was, given my current strength, unless I transformed into Chiyou again, I wouldn't be able to discern a single detail even if I gouged out my own eyes.

Upon hearing this, I, who had been completely bewildered, immediately understood what was going on. Even so, I was still deeply shaken. It turned out that in the eyes of the common folk, there really was a vast difference between demons and Taoist priests.

"Fine! Let's do it your way!" After a complex internal struggle, I finally chose Xiaoxiao’s method.

Feeling the creature’s movements, I hurriedly pulled Cui An back with me, and then we realized the stone man was on the verge of going berserk.

He had not made a move until now, but suddenly, he launched an attack on the ferocious Snake Demon standing to the side.

About forty minutes later, after they had said what they needed to say, Lu Man and Ding Yuying took Song Mo back to the inner courtyard, while Jiang Zhanwei sent someone to invite Jiang Zhangju, Jiang Zhanyu, Jiang Zhankun, and the young lord from next door to entertain the guests.
