Volume 1, Chapter 39: Let It Be

It was only because Thanos’s invasion involved the Time Stone that Du Mu took the initiative to seek out the Ancient One.

After Ding Yi dragged her exhausted body through a shower and returned to bed, the two chatted for a while about each other’s skin and figures, playing around for a bit before slowly drifting off to sleep.

“Mother He, show our guests out.” Zhong Man rose to leave, but her peripheral vision caught a glimpse of a slender figure flashing by the top of the second-floor stairs.

“Brother Jingyan, I truly had no malicious intent this time. I was just afraid that Sister Manman wouldn't accept my gift, so I sent it anonymously. I really want to atone for my mistakes, please believe me.” Xie Xintong clutched his sleeve, looking up and speaking with earnest sincerity.

Facing his wife’s overbearing meddling, Cao Ge was instantly caught between laughter and tears; if she continued to play matchmaker so recklessly, he would be doing his brothers a great disservice.

However, having such an incident occur on the very first day of filming cast a shadow over everyone’s spirits.

She could not decipher the handwriting revealed in the diary, but she could sense an ominous aura emanating from it.

In the half-month since Cao Ge had left Flower City, although he had not reached out to Li Jing’er, he had kept a close watch on her every move.

Thus, in the rainy weather of the capital, whenever people saw figures dressed in black-gray lotus robes, they knew it was the Inspectorate out on business, and they would avoid them like the plague.

When the Xu brothers heard what Tan Langshen said, they knew things were not looking good. Although they did not recognize Tan Langshen or the young gentleman who had just left, the fact that they shared the same aura as Tan Meng’ao told them they were also people of high status.

“Second Brother, the competition is this afternoon. Do we really have to go through with it?” He Zhikun asked uneasily.

“Didn’t you see the look on his face just now? He definitely has a guilty conscience!” Zhu Di said with certainty.

Even if she eventually forced her son to break up with Jiu’er, it would only serve to push him further away.

Witnessing this move, Xiao Yao felt that it was no longer just one person achieving the unity of man and sword, but rather all three of them entering that state.

The countdown had begun. If Wanlong Communications University scored this point, then Tiancheng University of Technology would have almost no chance left.

Many delicacies and peerless dishes that were once famous in their time shared the same fate; they had now turned into nothing but dog excrement.

Qin Yun and Sun Lu had been here before and were familiar with the place. After putting their luggage away, they each went to their respective rooms.

However, just to be safe, Duan Chen had forcibly made their uncle swallow a dose of poison before he left, warning him once again not to speak out of turn.

Hearing Cao Zhengguo’s voice, Cao Zhenghua stopped what she was doing. She was already tired from the exertion, having run so many laps in the courtyard, and was panting for breath. Li Qiuyue, having been struck dozens of times by Cao Zhenghua, was in agonizing pain. Seeing that Cao Zhenghua had stopped, she collapsed onto the ground, covering her face and sobbing.

It is common knowledge that unless Young Master Jing himself is willing, no one can ever capture a photograph of him.

Lin Peng was strolling through the backyard with Lin Xiang when he suddenly remembered there was an old antique left in her house.

Back then, after the ancestors of Thunder Mountain handed over the five dragon-beast kings of Violent Tooth Mountain to their beloved disciple, the Flying War God Han Fei, they continued south in pursuit of the Complete-Tooth Beast.

Ultimately, with the assistance of all his disciples, Feng Changqing recaptured the Pluto Mountain in one fell swoop before continuing to pursue the main forces of the Gifat army toward the city of Kangju.

In the presidential office, aside from the current occupant, Conrad, there was another person wearing an expensive suit. On his lapel, he wore a circular badge; although its construction was complex, a careful observer could faintly discern the outline of a red cross.

Within the ancestral shrine, Qing Ming could feel the emotions of the Ancient Phoenix. It was blood-linked to the Winged God, fighting across the heavens, yet during the moment of transcendence, its Ancient Phoenix bloodline was stripped away, directly severing its hope of becoming a god. And yet, it remained willing to guard its kin for ten thousand years. What a sacrifice that was!

One must know that the thrusters created by the Intellect Eye had even greater power than those of Iron Man in the original story.

Kuroki Hiroto stared blankly at the stage, his expression appearing exceptionally solemn, as if some emotion deep within his heart had been touched.

“The Lord is wise!” Upon hearing this from Liu Fan, the strategists and generals finally set their worried hearts at ease. After all, Liu Fan had not chosen to clash head-on with the imperial court.

The Prisoner and the Rock Man had joined forces. Seeing that Ling Yang was so difficult to deal with—even after being beaten black and blue, he still dared to run his mouth—their fury surged, and they unleashed their most powerful techniques.

She was the only one in the expedition to the Nine Nether God-Sealing Tower to reach the sixth floor. Not only did she obtain a powerful spiritual treasure, but her own strength had also increased significantly. I believe that if given a little time to digest what she gained in the Nine Nether God-Sealing Tower, she will certainly be able to enter the Void-Returning stage.

Since Mindy was so clever and could clearly understand his meaning, Wang Kai did not say much more, telling her only the simple reasons; she could understand the rest on her own.

More importantly, these guys were all unfamiliar faces. Neither Hernando nor the lead officer of the Honduran military police had seen them before, nor did they know their identities.

He truly raised his right hand, and as his palm fell, Xu Qingtian took the blow to her face with such force that her wheelchair slid a few inches, drawing closer to the edge of the hot spring pool.

“Mo Yuhan, how dare you!” Mo Xinnan roared, but before he could stop her, Mo Yuhan had already slapped Baobei hard across the face.

Sweetie had no parents and had always looked to Ling Yang as a father and Chu Wanyi as a mother. Therefore, when creating the illusion, she subconsciously transformed the General’s mistress into the image of Chu Wanyi.

Hearing this report, a flash of cold light passed deep within Ye Tian’s eyes, though his expression remained unchanged.

Step by step, Su Yingmei and Lisa walked into Catherine’s exclusive office. The view inside was nice, and it seemed to have been recently redecorated, which Su Yingmei quite liked. Yet, Su Yingmei also understood that the intentions of many people could be truly terrifying.

As the ventilation fan lowered into the secret passage began to operate, the large amount of foul air accumulated in the depths of the passage was drawn out, while fresh air from the outside was continuously pumped in, rapidly improving the environment inside.

Following the sound, the roars of beasts and the chirping of insects echoed incessantly, as if gods and demons had descended to slaughter the desolate universe.
