Yun Xi’s gaze swept over the jade box as she politely said, “Thank you, Senior Brother Sheng. I appreciate your kindness, but please, no need for the gift.”
Sheng Yuhong hadn’t expected Yun Xi to refuse and hesitated for a moment, a hint of disappointment in his voice: “Junior Sister Yun Xi, this is a congratulatory gift.”
A trace of annoyance flickered in Yun Xi’s eyes, yet she remained courteous: “Senior Brother Sheng, it’s clear this gift is very precious; I feel unworthy of accepting it.”
“Alright, alright, whatever Yan wants to eat, he’ll eat!” he said indulgently, and the two turned and left as if no one else mattered.
Tang Yun never imagined that the first person she would see upon arriving at the quiet abode would be Xiao Jingyu.
Although Jing Tian was very familiar with this place, he still pretended to be a newcomer to outsiders. After all, if others found out this estate belonged to the Su family, who knows what trouble might arise.
In this world, beyond the eight directions of human activity and the eight continental provinces, there still remained vast unexplored primeval forests covered in greenery. That was the realm of magical beasts, a territory even the strongest humans dared not tread lightly.
“Dugu Hong,” Dugu Hong said very seriously. He didn’t expect the other to reveal his name, but since he chose to ask, Dugu Hong naturally intended to answer.
“Do you know how much this garment of mine is worth?” Seeing that Dugu Hong wasn’t following his line of thinking, the other decided to go his own way, ignoring Dugu Hong’s thoughts altogether.
“Yes. You must die!” Dugu Hong, seeing such candidness, felt no need to hide anything. Besides, he didn’t want to conceal anything anymore. Though still a bit embarrassed, some things simply had to be done.
At that moment, the golden left hand finally succeeded in refining an iron chain, and one of the five fiery golden qilins stirred awake.
“My money—how could I let Qin Leng take my money?” Liu Zhi murmured as if recalling something.
Many hidden spaces were gradually being unlocked as various ruins merged; at this moment, divine palaces stood tall upon the earth, while immortal halls floated ethereally among the cloud peaks.

Although the Brocade Guards were nominally the supervisors of the Ghost Division, they treated the Ghost Division personnel with considerable courtesy, even as equals at times.
Therefore, Baili Dengfeng dared not be negligent at all. He leapt into the air, executing the “Azure Dragon Supports the Sky Wood” and “Greedy Wolf Shakes the Heavenly Shield” techniques consecutively. Instantly, wind, clouds, and thunder roared; the heavens and earth changed color, and all the demons were terrified.
The treasure mirrors, talismans, and divine powers used to detect cultivation were almost all employed, even a single incense stick was burned. Using the techniques of a Heavenly Evolution Master, Chen Xiao’s cultivation was repeatedly confirmed.
“Let’s go, I’ll treat you to something to eat,” Murong Di said coolly, unexpectedly taking Shen Shiyi’s hand.
“You quietly transferred from ‘Sacred Storm’ without a word—didn’t expect you’d come to ‘Palace Abyss,’” Mi Xue curled her lips. She had tried to inquire about Ouyang Yingqi’s whereabouts but found nothing, which left her saddened for quite some time.
Upon hearing the Fourth Elder in silver robes, Chen Xiao looked at the snarling earth fissure at his feet with a look of sudden realization.
Even if the equipment is good, it will eventually need to be replaced; skills, however, remain unchanged and are only discarded when utterly useless.
“Understood.” After exchanging a glance with Huang Zhong, Xu Chu responded with a nod, led a team in a roar, charging forth, while Huang Zhong naturally stood behind Dong Zhuo to guard him.
The Guiyi Sect counted countless experts with enough strength to capture the Old Ancestor of the Green Snail. So why did they seek outside help, risking exposure?
Mother Xi muttered and began to scold Father Xi, calling out “you men” again and again. Father Xi simply replied “yes, yes,” taking it all in.
The three working together were unstoppable. The most violent, desperate struggle in the world could hardly compare! Damn! Even if the master personally came, he wouldn’t gain any advantage! Liu Chuan couldn’t help but sigh.
Under Edmond’s command, the American team’s two assassins and two summoners focused all firepower on Liu Xiang, managing to take her down in one go.
Bai Kai lit a cigarette, seeming puzzled. He had long been addicted to smoking but had been holding back in someone else’s home. Seeing the situation, he gave in, opened the window, and lit one up.
The surface of the leather shoes was stained with blood, but more oddly, the inside was soaked through. I recalled that these clothes belonged to that boss. Such a large amount of blood only confirmed my suspicion that a killing had just occurred in this kitchen.
This scholar had achieved fame; legend said that once the firecrackers sounded, matchmakers arrived en masse; once they stopped, double happiness came to the door. Exaggerated as it was, Zhao Jingyi couldn’t help but worry about Lin Xi’s exceptional look and character.
Pang Tong: Water battles are strategist Zhuge Liang’s specialty; Sun Ce’s hundred thousand-strong navy relied on Zhuge’s strategies.
Tears streaming, biting my teeth, I opened the purple potion and poured it onto my wounds.

Dong Zhuo nearly choked on his own saliva. Though Liu Bei’s power was unimpressive, to be his leader, the strength must be unimaginable.
What they sought was simply to have me probe into the quarrel between Song and Huang yesterday.
In the next moment, the lightning shackles binding the Nine-Tails shattered one after another, and the Nine-Tails stretched out its two front paws, directly charging the black rhinoceros that had slammed into the divine spear.
Those three fell at his feet; naturally, the blood did not stain his body, but it still made the sorcerer uneasy.
Though Voldemort fiercely resisted after being struck by the curse, he couldn’t help trembling several times, his focus scattering.
The clumsy girl Ruo Ruo looked around curiously, clutching his arm in panic and hiding behind him in fear.
He seemed very easy to get along with; Lin Chu felt a breath of spring breeze and sat down with Tong Yao.
Simo Finnegan and Dean Thomas, looking excited, beckoned them over.
However, Jimei felt her mother’s words were mere lip service, sure that they would go in one ear and out the other, and by tomorrow’s moaning, she might have completely forgotten them.
There are people in this world who would rather submit to great evil than follow the faintest glimmer of light.
“The Qin people’s catapult is a hundred paces from our soldiers—at that distance, it won’t harm our men,” Shen Qing said.
The Chu army attacking the Huai River numbered 230,000, with over 93,000 sets of lamellar armor, meaning roughly four in ten soldiers wore armor. In the spear formation of fifteen per row, the front six rows wore lamellar armor, while the back nine rows were in leather armor. This armor count wasn’t high; the Grand Marshal’s plan was to have all frontline soldiers armored.
So this time, his nephew, just as he said, threw out so much solely to advance his great-uncle’s position?
