Volume 1, Chapter 54: How Does She Deserve This?
While waiting, Dong Zhanyun decisively used several isolation talismans to wrap around the Cosmos Sack, preventing it from being discovered later.
"You Lanxun, step back a little," Cui Feng said, raising his fist, gathering Netherworld spiritual energy, and smashing it directly into the floor beneath his feet.
Qi Yu stood frozen in place, not even knowing who her words of explanation were meant for. Watching his receding figure, a sharp pain rippled through her heart. Without the Qi family, would he never look at her again?
"Hey, Ruotong, Valentine has woken up," Nyusha greeted her old classmate warmly.
At that moment, Yun Feng felt his mind go completely blank, his own memories beginning to reverse themselves against his will.
"Fine! I'll provide you with the resources for your research when the time comes! Whether you design it yourself or copy it, do as you please! If you can tinker with Krupp's 88mm anti-aircraft gun, I'll line every peak of Jiuzhai with them!" Hu Yizhou said with a smile.
"I told Huzi. The child is truly sensible; he knew his aunt's worries," mother Liu Caiyue chimed in from the side.
Yet this actually led him to discover some profound techniques, such as his right hand! If activated, it could easily crush an Imperial Weapon!
Taking advantage of Huzi's obstruction, Ganzi ignited the last box of aerial fireworks, and then saw the remaining Japanese soldiers ignore the dead and charge straight at him.
Liu Lingshan recalled how she had previously given explicit and implicit hints to this Fei Liangyan, but he simply refused to catch on. Now Peter came up with such an idea—wasn't it just as unreliable?
Those dozen-odd men were overjoyed, eagerly claiming they could handle it and promising to come up with a good excuse, completely unaware that their doom was imminent.
Wu Daxiong was stunned, his face turning a shade of pale, then blue, and then red, shifting incessantly as he found himself completely speechless.
The two monks remained silent, their eyes flashing with nostalgia as they looked at this unprecedented and magnificent capital. The length and thickness of its city walls, along with the towering majesty of its gate towers, unfolded before their eyes like a miracle.
Shen Muwan quietly checked his pulse while examining his hand, and then cast another glance at his throat.
The sound of horse hooves was still drawing closer, the earth itself seemingly trembling. Anyone who possessed so many warhorses must at least be a major faction leader, or at the very least, a bandit king ruling a mountain stronghold.
Oscar shivered like a frightened rabbit, his eyes widening in disbelief as he stared at Zhao Wuji's disheveled state, hurriedly conjuring two sausages for Zhao Wuji on the spot.
"Mother, I've finished eating. I'll come out with you." Zhang Shi swallowed the last bite of steamed bun, wiped her mouth, and followed Wu Cuicui outside.
Her resentful gaze remained fixed on Zhou Chao's receding figure. Why was she dressed so scantily? Naturally, there was a reason for it! Half a month had passed without him making a move on them, and his excuses had been utterly righteous and solemn.
Nian Liudan's throat emitted a rattling sound, and a fresh stream of blood immediately spilled from the corner of his mouth.
Mutong's final gaze turned toward Cheng Xian's direction, all sounds fading away from her ears. It seemed as though she saw Cheng Xian rushing toward her with a look of profound shock and fury, the panic and despair in his eyes filled with such terror.
Suo raised an eyebrow, sizing up the cook who looked intent on negotiating terms with her, wondering what on earth this fellow wanted to know.
Yet life was so unpredictable; she never imagined that her own softness of heart would bring her such massive trouble.
The smile at the corner of Nan Moheng's lips deepened, and the intrigue in his eyes grew stronger as he turned his gaze toward a certain direction.
However, when they emerged from the stone chamber, Mo Qianyan was nowhere to be found on the fourth level. Arriving here, they seemingly failed to spot Mo Qianyan's figure either, causing many students to frown slightly.
Ding Shiwei probably never imagined that if she hadn't used the Ding family to force the issue in the beginning, Cheng Xian would never have agreed to the marriage; yet Cheng Xian himself was also indecisive and failed to see his own heart clearly.
Though it was the dead of night, lanterns and torches could be seen everywhere, illuminating the ground around the graves as bright as day.
Mofengye smiled lightly. At that moment, a crisp, soft, and sweet voice traveled over, causing Mofengye to instantly whip her head around.
The Great Elder's expression darkened. He stared fixedly at the abyss for a moment before suddenly summoning his beast pet.
The immensely powerful Zhong Xingyue entered the dark hole first, and sure enough, the temperature inside was even higher than what they had sensed outside.
"What did Mother say?" Lin Minjia felt her throat go somewhat dry at that moment, so she picked up a cup of water and took a few sips.
As she dragged Wei Wei toward the Faint Light Courtyard, Wei Wei had initially allowed herself to be half-dragged... but suddenly, Wei Wei refused to take another step.
Taishi Ci was about to withdraw his troops when the shadow guards accompanying the army sent word that over a hundred people in tattered clothes had been spotted ahead, though whose army they belonged to remained unknown.
It was clearly a perfectly normal sentence, yet why did it sound so inexplicably strange coming from her mouth? The Second Mistress felt a wave of internal annoyance.
Consort Xian's words carried the fierce determination of "being willing to shatter one's body to drag the emperor down from his throne," prompting even Emperor Yong'an to spare her a few extra glances.
Qin Sanyuan naturally said no more. He offered a slight bow to Qin Mingyuan, climbed onto the driver's seat, shook the reins, and the carriage slowly rolled into motion, moving out of the Qin residence, navigating the narrow lane in front of it, and heading out onto the main street.
