“You still have to come back, and you can only stay in the mortal realm for three days. If you won’t agree to that, then we have nothing more to discuss,” Yun Xi said solemnly.
The rocks and ground all around them seemed to tremble, as though something were about to burst through the surface. The sight terrified several disciples whose strength was only at the early stage of the War King realm, leaving them utterly panic-stricken.
What was going on? Why had their opponent run away in the middle of the fight? Was this really the high-level flesh worm that had battled their insect race for countless years? Hadn’t these creatures always fought to the death without retreating?
He was crude and overbearing, pitiful yet irritating, leaving everyone alternately helplessly amused and utterly exasperated.
The enormous haul of earth-element stones they had obtained the day before was all placed in Yue Li’s storage pouch. They would take them out again once they figured out how to use them.
Yu Mu had assumed that Senior Brother had used magic to summon her and Old Mai over. When Old Mai told her that Mu Qingzi had an urgent matter and wanted them there, she found it very strange. Why summon them so late at night?
The sly one found an excuse, took his wife and children out, and hid away to avoid a direct confrontation with her and an outright battle. By leaving a little dignity intact, they might still be able to face each other in the future.
Su Mei drew a deep breath. In less than five days, she had already gathered four of the Five Treasures. The speed was so astonishing that she could hardly believe it. As for the final item, the jade within the Ruoshui Cup, Su Mei could obtain it whenever she wished.
Tears gradually welled in Yang Xue’s eyes. Beside her, Yang Shisan watched his dazed little sister with an expression of helpless concern.
Wen Huan put the letter away, then remembered that she was still carrying the item Chu Qingfeng had previously asked her to retrieve. Yet when she went looking for Chu Qingfeng, she discovered that he was nowhere to be seen.
Su Can had taken Fang Jing out of the residence over the past few days, so when Lin Yi came to visit, there was no one to receive him in the main hall.
Part of the credit for successfully skipping classes the previous year belonged to this teacher. Unfortunately, the good times did not last, and she was eventually discovered. She was then assigned to teach the worst class, and all the teachers looked down on her because of it. The blame was also shifted onto Lin Lin.
Only after leaving the teaching building did Lin Lin breathe a sigh of relief, patting her heaving chest. Just as she was happily preparing to head home, she received a phone call—a string of numbers. Yi Yichen’s number was private, so Lin Lin had not saved it under any name.

Sure enough, Zhang Chunlai told Wang Bin that Chen Chan did not seem as simple as he appeared and that they should probe him later.
“It’s always the same. Even if you drink with me, no one will ever know. Why are you being so strict with yourself? I won’t tell anyone. Come on, keep your sister company.” Situ Ying coaxed Jian Lang seductively.
As soon as Liu Feng got out of the car, he noticed that quite a few luxury vehicles were parked there, several of which were difficult to buy even for those with money.
A barrage of messages caught Zhou Ruoxi completely off guard, and her expression darkened instantly.
When she thought of this, she wanted to go back and see Jinhua. But if she returned now, she did not know how to face Jian Lang. In the end, she could only go home first and visit Jinhua in the afternoon.
Yet when she reconsidered, she felt that this sensation was exceedingly strange. She had clearly thought through every step, but the situation kept developing in ways completely different from what she had expected.
However, just as Jia Lian was about to enter the residence, he saw a large number of soldiers wearing mountain-patterned armor riding toward him from ahead.
Most infuriating of all, he now dared to rely on the little favor Ren Sinian showed him and place himself above Qin Yisan, who should have been his master. How could she possibly swallow such an insult?
Tao You blinked hard, wondering whether she had stared blankly at the same spot for too long and damaged her eyesight.
“The Crown Prince is waiting for you inside. Go in by yourself; this servant will not disturb you.” Eunuch Yuan led her into the hall.
The things of the past had not truly passed. They could never be left behind—not while the barrier in one’s heart remained uncrossed, nor while the barrier in another’s heart remained uncrossed.
In Tony’s eyes, the effects of this Hex crystal were absolutely more than ten times greater than those of a Hextech crystal.
When Lin Zhi Xiao saw Jia Lian take out a bottle of medicine, he suddenly realized that the Second Master had apparently been preparing to take Wang Shanbao’s life all along. A chill rose within him.

In the eleventh year, in the fifth month of summer, Grand General Fei Yi moved his forces to garrison Hanzhong. In autumn, the people and tribal inhabitants of the Fuling dependent kingdom rebelled. General of Cavalry Deng Zhi went to suppress them and thoroughly pacified them all.
“It wasn’t anything important. I just went to collect some money and buy a few boxed meals.” Ge Ying took six thousand from his pocket and handed it to Xing Ming.
Only if the other side descended into direct internal strife, with its own people fighting one another, would there be any chance of defeating them.
That was how things stood. Even Wang Xubai, an utterly straightforward man, could tell that Zong Yaoxi’s expression seemed rather unpleasant.
They had already sampled several of the household dishes at this restaurant, so today they had deliberately ordered one of the chef’s specialties to test his skill.
The flavor of the fermented grain was extremely faint. One could not taste it without savoring the dish carefully. Across the entire Xuan Dynasty, there might not be a second chef capable of achieving what Chef Wang had.
When they saw Longshan, Cheng Yuan, and the others attacking the transparent barrier, the Nether Generals reacted with lightning speed as well. They charged forward at once, intending to interfere with the Celestial Generals.
The casting, the casting—there simply had not been a suitable choice. Zong Yaoxi felt that today had once again ended in failure.
Under the circumstances, even both palms filled with condensed inner force could not withstand this umbrella-shaped spell attack, which left no gaps and covered every angle.
“My name is Huo Dao. There is no need to call me ‘Sir.’ Now that you have also become a celestial, just call me Brother Huo.” The burly, bearded man spoke in a carefree manner.
Han Yang nodded in agreement, but inwardly he was cursing. For such a miserable cleaning job, this man was actually threatening to fire him.
