59th Iron Pillar
"Grand Princess, have you guessed something?" Wu Yining asked softly, as if afraid to startle her.
Looking with pleasant surprise at the person pushing the door open and walking in, Leng Pingsheng swallowed the second half of his unfinished sentence.
Just as Zhan Jue received orders to head to Mount Xing to investigate the whereabouts of the main force of the Dragon and Tiger Army, Yu Ronghao finally made up his mind to protect himself.
Gu Qianqian subconsciously breathed another sigh of relief, then slumped over the table with a sorrowful expression, like a withered flower.
Actors were rare in the interstellar plane; the technological personnel of the film and television industry could create any character they imagined, and the occasional live-action worker interspersed among them served merely to add a touch of novelty to the plot.
Xue Wan was not angry at all; rather, she was quite smug. What she said was just like what others said about Luo Bi yesterday—someone had said the exact same thing about Luo Bi yesterday.
Gu Qianqian cast her gaze around the surroundings. This room was truly extravagant beyond measure, resembling nothing less than a gilded cage.
As soon as the door opened, a furious and arrogant tirade burst forth. The voice was full of vital breath and resonated like thunder.
Just as her eyes adapted to the brightness of the space, Seventeen reminded her that a host with the tail number 8536 had sent a video call request, and asked whether to connect.
Luoyang at the end of the Han Dynasty was the premier metropolis of the Han Empire, boasting a population of over one million. Following centuries of cultivation by the Great Han, it was incomparably prosperous. Liu He's residence was situated on Willow Front Lane, Changping Street, in the western part of the city. It was a complex of courtyards, with the front courtyard alone spanning five compounds, followed by three more in the rear. Further back lay a garden covering nearly three mu of land.
Seeing not a trace of wariness or suspicion on Qing Xiao's face, Di Chongxiao concluded with certainty that their whereabouts had not been leaked, and motioned to continue moving in stealth. Armed with spiritual light transmutation and spiritual water play, unless one were at extremely close range, even someone as formidable as Qing Xiao would fail to notice them.
Drawing blood, testing skin and tissue samples, enduring all sorts of eclectic medical examinations... As long as it did not harm her body or threaten her life, she cooperated. However, this applied only to herself and absolutely did not include her younger brother and sister.
Han Ningxin borrowed her divine soul to amplify her hearing, waving the cloth strip in her hand to precisely snare a crossbow bolt that was ambushing Di Chongxiao. Whirling the cloth strip, she hurled it back to kill an enemy. Having succeeded, Han Ningxin darted to the right to engage three men who had crept up on her.
No one could predict whether a casual choice made at this very moment would end up altering the course of their entire life.
Before marriage, Gu Wangge had always clung to him. Although she was sensible, whenever her eyes met his, they were filled with a yearning for companionship.
Yet, unexpectedly, the moment the two met, Lin Qingxuan did not utter a word; with a single sweep of his flying sword, he instantly cleaved his opponent in two. Before Chu Zixiang could even react, he had died an muddled and untimely death, leaving the other Jade Void Palace disciples nearby utterly dumbstruck.
After descending back and forth twice, they plunged straight through the sea of clouds. What met the eye was a continuous expanse of ancient trees piercing the sky, flat as an endless plain, with clouds drifting gently over the sea of foliage in the breeze.
Of the thirty-odd ability users, only a few remained to protect Ye Guoxian, while the rest charged toward the mutant beasts watching from the side. Whether they could defeat them was unknown, but they at least had to put up an appearance.
The goshawk tumbled in mid-air, its two talons thrashing wildly as it clawed the Ghost General's body to shreds.
"A gift for me? Hehe, I actually quite like this armor of yours, but what is this wooden club for? We have weapons, and our weapons are far better than this wooden club," Ji Chang said, taking the large wooden club with a look of surprise.
Chu Yunqing continued grinding the medicinal powder in her hands, while Lian Xia seemed to recall something, puzzled as to why the Princess cared so much about the Prince's appearance.
She saw no dead bodies outside, though what lay inside was uncertain, nor did she care to verify; she preferred to think that everyone had simply fled.
Even in the afternoon, she would leave work early to buy groceries, cook, and wait for the children to return from school. With such a busy routine, how could she possibly have time for any affairs?
"Today, the Qingyang Academy and the Qingyang Tribe are doomed to perish; even if the gods descended, they could not save you," roared the powerhouse of the Helian family.
The two remained affectionate for a while before Luoyi brought in the medicine. This time, thanks to Chu Yunqing, the morale of the Feng family army soared, and the reputation of the Seventh Prince's Consort gradually spread throughout the troops.
An Yiting always kept her family in her thoughts. During her years as a courtesan, she sent all the private silver she had saved back to her hometown.
Damn it, just for the stewardship of the household worth three thousand strings of cash, Guo Shi had humiliated and pressured her like that?!
Wu Xun believed that Huazhi had a talent for drawing talismans, but these were merely fifth-grade supreme talismans. There were Void-Refining demonic cultivators wandering about in the outside world; at most, these talismans could only inflict superficial wounds on those ancient monsters, and a fatal blow was utterly out of the question.
Shi Chen had somehow retrieved Qiao Xi's cell phone, and all her friends had already sent her messages.
After hearing Qinglong's explanation of the Four Symbols, I discovered that my single-word sword art had actually acquired Suzaku's piercing ability. That meant if I continued to practice, my subsequent sword techniques would inherit the abilities of the other three symbols as well.
Qian Chunfeng was the most outstanding figure in the current generation of the Qian family, currently holding the position of deputy head of a ministry, and this time he was striving to secure the position of ministry head.
Ye Bai thought things were going well, but just as he was about to dodge again, his back was slammed heavily, sending him flying instantly. He was struck from the front as well, sending him hurtling backward. Stars flashed before his eyes as he bounced around like a pinball. Before losing consciousness, a single term flashed through his mind: human missile.
