With a flushed face, Leader Min slowly reached into his robe, pulled out a worn-out storage pouch, and tossed it to Shui Tianlan.

He patted the giant's large head. Since it hadn't gotten any food yet, it must have been feeling a bit wronged.

After Lin Feng departed, Huang Xinghua fell silent and closed his eyes, still struggling inside to accept the fact that his own scheme had led to the death of Yuan Xianming.

Therefore, he worked very hard and earnestly. With the Fierce Wyrm Island as his home base, combined with the connections, capital, and experience he had accumulated through years of relentless striving, he had naturally pioneered many new routes. All in all, this generated a very substantial income.

"You killed her earlier, I could sense it, so the paper effigy was able to learn some basic information from the residual soul remaining on you," Murong Zhiqui said calmly.

Without waiting for Xu Zhi's permission, Huifeng hurriedly shook his head and said, "Practicing martial arts is a very grueling endeavor. My ambition is simply to ring the bell for as long as I am a monk, living a life of few desires and taking refuge in the Buddha." With that, he pressed his palms together in a devout manner.

"I believe in myself, and I believe in my subordinates." Lin Feng smiled slightly and spread his hands.

Seeing the look of astonishment on Xu Zhi's face, Sugawara Michizane laughed and said, "This is our Eastern ninja fire escape technique!" Xu Zhi echoed, "How truly miraculous!" Taking advantage of the chaos among the guards outside, the two men struggled to close the heavy doors, dropped the latch, and then successively jumped down into the secret tunnel.

At this mention, Staunton picked up a handbell. With a gentle shake, a long-nosed elf wearing a green pointed cap and hunting attire leaped onto the table amidst a puff of violet smoke.

Only when the Yin and Yang vital energies complemented and gave birth to one another could his martial arts cultivation achieve another major breakthrough and transcend its bottleneck.

Suhan and the three of them nodded and dispersed into a tactical formation. Youyu rested his right hand on his crossbow, glanced upward at the top of each watchtower, and followed after them.

A spider spun a web beneath a stone bridge. One day, a wandering immortal traveling through the mortal realm happened to pass under the bridge and sat cross-legged to rest there for the night. The next morning, when the immortal awoke, he discovered a spider web suspended directly above his head.

The conversation did not go smoothly, but thanks to Wu Fan's exquisite persuasive skills, supplemented by the sincere application of physical reasoning with his fists and feet, Deputy Police Chief Miyano Tsukishiro finally came to understand that his intentions were good, agreed to become his collaborator, and achieved a consensus.

"Fine, then I'll sit on the floor too." Supporting the hem of her skirt, Yelü Aogu leaned against the door panel and sat down as well.

Princess Yunjing still wanted to plead with Empress Yue, but seeing that the Empress had a resolute look of absolute refusal to negotiate, there was nothing more she could do.

Oh damn, how did it end up being me? Could there be some mistake? I was just doing a mental preparation session a moment ago!

A terrifying assassination attempt—everyone felt a chill run down their spine. Who could possibly evade such a strike? Without any warning of how she appeared, the sword's edge was already lunging straight for the head.

Rong Qian clenched her teeth tightly, refusing to let him breach her defenses. Her sense of grievance reached its peak, and in her obstinacy, she would rather perish together.

"Take care as well, Senior, this heavy responsibility is now entrusted to all of you..." Qin Tiancai also stood up and cupped his fists in salute.

Guliang Nayin nodded and lowered her head in silence... Once she returned to her brother's side, Brother Qin would have to leave again. Who knew when and where they would meet next?

Inside the towering building, Huofen and Huochen were sitting face to face. Unlike before, the two of them sat empty-handed at the stone table, their faces wearing expressions of anger, sitting in a daze without uttering a single word.

Outside, the fires of war raged across the land, yet as the Sect Master of the Heavenly Cloud Sect, he actually possessed such leisurely composure—Qin Yu found it impossible to understand.

Leopards were quite familiar with such pitch-black environments, yet without anyone to guide them, they would undoubtedly have wandered off to who knows where.

Feeling as though he had barely slept, the sky began to grow bright. Dawn always arrived a bit earlier in the mountains. As the light entered his eyes, Lin Yang lost all sleepiness. Bing and Chen were still sleeping soundly, so Lin Yang got up on his own accord and walked outside.

The contempt conveyed in his words was bare and unmistakable to everyone present, yet not a single person dared to voice a retort at this moment, wishing only that Xiao Jingchen would not take notice of them.

"Nearly thirty years old and accomplishing nothing—to put it nicely, you're ordinary; to put it bluntly, you're just good-for-nothing!" Uncle Wu sneered.

Well, the quality of this diamond is just so-so. It's barely acceptable as a casual gift, but it falls somewhat short of the prestige required for an engagement ring.

Lin Youxuan noticed that the black, viscous, and highly corrosive snow that had originally dripped onto the ground... was writhing as if it had a life of its own, merging with that pool of black blood.

Having flown for nearly half an hour, the person abducting Lin Yang seemed to realize that Lin Yang was still conscious, so he gave the arm holding Lin Yang a gentle shake, plunging Lin Yang instantly into unconsciousness.

"Right." Chai Lang had no intention of calling Muzai or Thrall over; while their combat strength was indeed formidable, they possessed zero proficiency in the art of concealment.

Watching that graceful figure pull away from his embrace, the warm and comfortable sensation instantly vanished, and Chai Lang still couldn't help feeling a slight pang of dejection.
