Superstition

Instead of leaving with the two right away, Zhang Yi instead waved his hand forcefully toward the approaching contestants. A gale of fierce wind materialized, sweeping several slow-to-react contestants directly into the shifting quicksand zone.

Ji Yin nodded, her footwork flashing with energy, and in the blink of an eye, she arrived at the thatched cottage. She made an encouraging gesture toward Pei He and even winked at him.

However, the sheer quantity was overwhelming. Even with the aid of a formidable sixth sense, it was impossible to completely fend off the ice shards hurtling from all directions.

Wen Zhi analyzed all the pros and cons and concluded that this was the only viable course of action. She immediately packed her belongings and took Wen Xi to Autumn Mother’s house that very afternoon.

This gun was a family heirloom passed down through generations of the Pei family. Pei He’s father did not use firearms, so it had been left in Pei He’s possession.

If there was any difference between her and the previous Marcia Aguilar, it was that her soul power rank had dropped to the ninety-first level. Yet, compared to Marcia Aguilar’s resurrection, this was utterly insignificant.

In an instant, the Golden Dragon Blast descended upon the "Heaven-Veil" Tier 7 defensive soul guide. The "Heaven-Veil" Tier 7 defensive soul guide erupted with a deep blue radiance, shooting forth a surge of soul power in a desperate attempt to block the Golden Dragon Blast.

"A shop shouldn't cost this much either! Can you lower the price a bit more?" Xu Yao's father immediately asked.

At Cheng Linhua's signal, the prince's estate opened its grand gates, treating every visiting guest with utmost courtesy and propriety.

He and Yang Mengyao had always treated each other with mutual respect like guests, and he had never spoken to her in such a tone before.

Lei Yu thought to himself: This veteran traveler has far too weak a mental fortitude; heaven knows how he managed to survive four karmic fire directives.

"What's wrong with you?" Long Jueying looked at the somewhat dazed Shui Ling, her brows furrowed slightly before she asked.

The flames were not satisfied after devouring the case files. Instead, the red and blue radiance flared brilliantly, illuminating the area around the fire as bright as day. The fierce ghost stared fixedly at the flames, appearing somewhat mesmerized for a moment.

They knew about Fan Chen's agreement with the Snow Sea aristocratic family half a year later, and they also knew that Fan Chen stood no chance against Jin Shengning. The engagement was bound to be broken off, so everyone rushed over in hopes of securing a prior marital alliance to expand their own influence.

When Dong Chi made his move, Xuanyuan Yu also understood his own predicament. Brandishing his three-foot-long blade, he unleashed the Yin-Yang Sword Song for the very first time. With both the unyielding might of the yang sword and the gentle fluidity of the yin sword, he crushed everything relentlessly toward the Heaven-Swallowing Insects. Xuanyuan Yu and Dong Chi carved a bloody path straight out from the center.

Fortunately, not all resources could be acquired using battle points; most of the truly rare Pokémon cultivation materials were traded through barter.

The room instantly grew quiet. Fan Shishi called people in to clean up the mess and calm the atmosphere, while Fan Chen quietly pondered how best to explain everything to Tang Yuyao.

He began to carefully inspect the interior structure of the room. Just in case the fierce ghost failed to play by the conventional rules, he needed to find a glimmer of survival from within the room.

Perhaps yielding to the pressure from Ning Jianye, or perhaps as remedial measures taken by Director Peng on behalf of Peng Jingyu.

After three years of military campaigns, Mo Qinglan's subjugation of the three kingdoms had nearly exhausted the military forces at Ye Shuangshu's disposal. Although she held the jade seals of the three kingdoms, it was an empty shell without the reach to enforce her rule, allowing the distant Huangci Country to catch its breath.

When Li Hexian and the others landed on the stone platform, the man among them stood up and scrutinized the four of them.

However, the look of excitement in her eyes and her continuously twitching shoulders betrayed her inner emotions.

Upon pinpointing Li Hexian's trajectory, the shapeshifted grand demon instantly transformed into a streak of blue light, cutting across the sky like a shooting star as it flew far away.

When Bai Suyu felt herself being hoisted up, she opened her eyes. She saw two burly men supporting her arms—though calling it supporting was less accurate than carrying her, as her feet hovered just slightly above the ground.

Following his ascension to the throne, and mindful of Yun Yi's past meritorious service to the Tianyuan Kingdom, Mu Luo specially retained his title as the General Protecting the Country. However, he reassigned all the troops under the General's Estate to the Ministry-Guarding Estate, reducing the General Protecting the Country to a mere nominal title while hollowing out its actual power.

To actually want me to offend the Second Prince! This is the Second Prince's elder brother; if I were to arrest him, I would be in deep trouble.

"How is that possible?" Fan Wu looked at his Sword of Destruction shattering right before his eyes in disbelief. His pupils contracted slightly, and the corners of his twitched slightly.

Ying Ming accompanied Luo Li to the senior care apartment, hoping to ask the elderly residents there if any of them knew anything about the Fire Bird.

Not far away, several wealthy scions had already gathered around Song Chuheng, all of them staring in utter astonishment.

This breakthrough had failed, leaving no future opportunity to break through, because his meridians had already sustained damage during the attempt. Such damage was nearly permanent; only by achieving a breakthrough to a new realm could they be repaired under the baptism of primordial energy. One could say this was a desperate battle with his back to the wall.

As for the side of Huaxia, Jing Mingcheng personally came to serve as the witness for the wedding, with Jing Yuan and Jing Haoran serving as groomsmen.

Ye Qingcheng had no desire to stay any longer. Mo Youxun's appearance had already thrown her heart into chaos. She had to leave this place and then figure out a way to shake him off.

"I don't have any money..." Ma Zhi said with his head lowered, and Fang Zheng could feel the despair and bitterness residing in Ma Zhi's heart.

A convoy of twelve fully loaded grain carts emerged from the back alley of the Royal Casino. Each cart flew a red flag with black characters embroidered with the four words "Royal Casino," set against a background of auspicious clouds.

He Chen was at least a bit calmer than the others. Seeing the other people's hands trembling incessantly, Wan Qi even suspected that if she let them speak, their saliva might spray all onto her face during conversation.

Mama Song's heart settled a bit more, thinking to herself: That person果然 did not lie. She had also used this medicine herself and found nothing amiss; otherwise, even with a blade held to her neck, she wouldn't dare administer medicine to the Empress Dowager! It seemed that person genuinely intended to use the Empress Dowager's reputation to open up a market for the medicine.

Moreover, given that Fang Zheng truly lacked experience and didn't quite dare host a larger Dharma assembly, he could now visit the newly opened Red Rock Temple to observe and learn. With this thought in mind, Fang Zheng gladly accepted the invitation and prepared to attend the Dharma assembly at Red Rock Temple.

Although the acrobatics at the banquet were novel, the more Lianyi watched, the stranger things felt. First, Liu Yanran played the zither amidst the adulation of the crowd, followed by various princes, city lords, and imperial concubines stepping forward to perform special talents.
