More than ten billion had been blocked, causing him to suffer a loss of seven hundred million for no reason. Could Xia Yuan really let the matter pass just like that? He was not about to back down.
Ye Feng smiled as he dealt with everyone. His way of defusing the situation was simple: he casually dispelled the Spirit Fusion Art, revealing his true cultivation at the Immortal Realm, and immediately provoked another round of startled exclamations.
“Yes, Master!” Mu Qiu answered respectfully. She had originally planned to return to the Mu residence on Cloudmist Continent soon. With her current strength, she could easily fly back. But since her master had mentioned the ruins of an immortal, such a fortuitous opportunity was not to be missed, so she agreed without hesitation.
Simply put, take a hand grenade as an example. Its explosion might last only a second: a sudden flash of light, and then darkness.
“That place won’t do. Someone has already made it their own. If you move in without thinking, you’ll die,” Ye Zheng warned.
It turned out that the dragons did not refuse to leave the deep pool. Rather, the old dragon of Mount Jun was nearing the end of his life and had long since lost most of his abilities. The dragons placed great importance on blood ties and kinship; since the old dragon would not leave, naturally they would not abandon the place either.
Therefore, until she knew what the newcomer intended, hiding and waiting for the other party to leave was the safest course of action.
“I know everything that has happened to you, including the wonderful things you did at that base of yours in Hawaii,” Ye Cangqiong said calmly.
When Gong Wuxie surrounded the city lord’s residence with his men and had the two of them bound, they still wore innocent expressions and protested their innocence again and again.
“The young master of the Su family in Luo’an Town, Su Ze, is my primary husband. Aunt Lan, I truly like him.” She had long regarded Aunt Lan as a mother, and naturally hoped for her approval.
“I’ll give you three seconds to think. Hand it over to me, and you’ll live. Refuse, and I’ll send you to your death, then search for it myself. The choice is yours,” Chen Yun said.
“Not bad.” He stroked his beard. “It’s just...” He stopped after those two words, leaving no clue what difficulty was hidden behind them.

Although he did not know whether the Black Spirit Dream before him was hostile, Huai Ren instinctively stepped backward. His sense of danger was frantically warning him that the other party was about to attack. After all, Huai Ren was currently no more than an ordinary person.
The Prince of Changsha’s residence.
Qin Mo, Yang Hu, and the others gathered together, anxiously waiting for Shentu Yi to appear.
They slowly withdrew. I looked at the dress I often wore, neatly folded beside the daybed, yet my feet remained rooted to the spot.
With a cursory glance, Qin Fan immediately realized that the man possessed extraordinary skill. He was filled with an iron-blooded aura and was a rare military talent. Unfortunately, he was already advanced in years and no longer suited to cultivation. Still, with his strength at the ninth level of the Innate Realm, he could certainly be considered formidable.
Half a month ago, Chen Yun had spotted a healing pill at an apothecary. It could ease the internal injuries his master had suffered many years earlier, but he did not have enough Martial Apprentice coins. Thus, he had asked the shopkeeper to reserve it for half a month. Today was the final day of that period.
“All right, I’ll wait for you. Go.” After saying this, Lin Yajing lay down at once and continued covering her head with the quilt.
Just as Yang Ren had said, the flame was indeed green. All the fire gathered into a single green tongue of flame. The moment it touched the bottom of the pot, it spread open like a giant python swallowing the entire base. In less than two minutes, the large pot of water had boiled.
At last, the melee erupted. The four combatants’ powers scattered across the mountaintop, and the beautiful landscape was viciously ravaged beneath their assault, reduced to a field of pits and craters.
Zhao, the major general, finally found an opportunity to raise his voice. In truth, he had no idea how far his immediate superior intended to take the test. Then the elevator doors on the fourth floor opened, and General Xiong appeared before him. Only then did he realize that the test must be over.
“The Prince is not only a member of the imperial family but also a hero who helped annihilate the Di. You are a man without office or merit to the state, yet you dare speak so recklessly. You deserve a thousand deaths.” Tang Jinli smiled faintly, but her gaze was cold. Everyone around her felt their hair stand on end.
“I see. Then I’ll take you with me.” Seeing her smile, Xu Yan could not help smiling as well. He knew Bing’er must have waited through the night, afraid she might miss his departure.
I gazed at my reflection in the bronze mirror. A long vermilion gown of peony-patterned damask trailed across the floor. A soft veil of gold-threaded gauze was draped lightly over my arms, while a white jade swallow pendant hung at my waist, swaying gently with every step. Upon my twin-bun coiffure, a nine-phoenix golden hairpin tilted jauntily to one side.

“I’ll take you to the clinic.” Knowing she would never go to the prince’s residence, he stared at her stubbornly straight back and forced down the pain and bitterness in his chest as he spoke.
The maidservants were only too eager for Zhang Lian to leave her husband’s family. Not long after Zhang Lian entered the household, Zhang Mo had taken every one of the maids to his bed, and they had suffered unbearably.
Unfortunately, just when Lin Feng thought it was all over, another voice rang out.
Wanrou thought she had chosen the wrong person to confide in. Men were all such blocks of wood. In a fit of anger, she stormed away.
The security captain, who had not taken the initiative to raise his weapon against Xiu Qiqi, was struck hard in the chest and abdomen just like the black-clad men before him. As he tumbled across the grass, he was no different from the others.
The latter blushed slightly under his gaze and turned his head aside, watching the battle replay on the huge screen.
In the prefectural capital of Tongzhou, inside the enormous city lord’s residence, Tong Shengzhong, lord of Tongzhou, stared expressionlessly at his son lying on the bed. His chest had been burned nearly beyond recognition, but because the pill had been administered in time, his life had been saved.
Li Haolong walked to Han Xue’s bedside and looked at her unconscious figure.
“Auntie, I’m Han Xue’s friend. My name is Li Haolong.”
