Gongye Nan’s features were not breathtakingly beautiful, but he was exceptionally handsome. Most striking of all was the warmth of his presence—like a spring breeze brushing one’s face and the earth thawing after winter, allowing people to feel the gentle radiance of sunlight even in the slightly chilly night. It was a genial air that left an indelible impression.
This gave Zi Ning, who had never before come into direct contact with a Titan Beast, an entirely new understanding of such gigantic creatures.
Back then, Han Chengchi had saved her life. She had noticed him because of that, and then fallen deeply in love with him. There was no longer room in her heart for anyone else.
Especially not this rather comically named Moon Demon Wolf, Fatty. It was so humanlike, so spiritually perceptive. That meant the Moon Demon Wolf possessed an extraordinarily high intelligence. Could an ordinary person truly defeat such a being?
Yao Qingmu also noticed that something was strange about the fellow. An ordinary restaurant attendant was wearing expensive black satin boots with thick soles. It simply made no sense.
“Huh? Marry him?” Yao Qingmu stood there in a daze once more. Though she had lived two lifetimes, most of that time had been spent struggling to make a living. She had never even considered the question of marriage.
With so many beautiful memories, even if she lost him, those memories would remain with her. That was enough. What more could she possibly ask for?
Those involved were often blind to the truth, while onlookers saw it clearly. Leng Muhan had once lost his family in a raging fire. When he saw flames filling the sky again, his mind fell into chaos. He seemed to have returned to his childhood, watching helplessly as the fire roared while lacking the strength to protect his family.
Of course, she would never say such things aloud. She would have to be tired of living before telling anyone all that. Keeping herself alive was enough. As for what others thought or did, people only considered changing after suffering the consequences. No amount of advice from others would help.
Zod’s words were utterly sincere, and that made it difficult for Dante to strike. What was Dante supposed to do—fight or not? If he fought, Zod had said he would not resist. If he did not fight, then...
It shifted into another stance and looked toward the sky, but the shock wave, which had long since surpassed the speed of sound, struck the enormous body of the Island Eater with unerring accuracy.
A plasma beam struck the control console, damaging only the surface of its outer armor. Even so, it was enough to frighten everyone, including the leader.
Celebrations, in essence, were much the same as they were in the modern world. The forms might differ, but the heart of them was identical: everyone simply enjoyed themselves.
Xia Bu’er suddenly ran to the edge of the woods. Beyond that lay open farmland, exposed in every direction. If he ran out, he would surely be treated as a living target and shot dead. But just as they searched for cover, a vast barrage of crimson shells came crashing in from beyond the valley, exploding one after another throughout its center.
When he returned to the place where Xiahou Yu was resting, he happened to see Xiao Shan poking her head around nearby. She looked as though she wanted to find Xiahou Yu but did not dare approach.

Just as Qi Ran and the others began making their way through the various rooms, Han Li started looking around as well, carefully and inconspicuously.
That was why he had decided to withdraw: so he could carry the information out. Although he had lost the battle between the two sides, taking this news with him would still count as a contribution.
Dante withdrew his hand in satisfaction. As he spoke, he casually moved his legs. The black armor covering them shimmered like obsidian with every motion. In the next instant, the ferocious saw teeth on either side of the armor began to spin violently.
Dante rolled his eyes. Divan was quite an interesting fellow. He looked like a middle-aged alternative youth, yet his personality was closer to that of a mischievous old child.
Bai Xiaobai arrived at the entrance of the One-Person Restaurant and craned his neck to inspect the situation inside. Seeing customers arriving one after another, he felt that lurking around would look suspicious, so he silently returned to the car.
Shattering the curved moon’s reflection and the scattered stars, setting a stream rippling on its endless course; the murmuring spring water trembled like a broken zither string.
Bai Xiaobai and Gao ate as they asked whether there was anything else they needed to do. To their surprise, Suo Xin refused every request.
Yun Fangjin recounted to Ji Niangui how Jiang Yishu had fallen into the sea on the Lufeng Continent while being pursued by the elders of the Seeking Immortal Sect.
Countless vengeful spirits slowly emerged in the distance, forming a vast procession as they advanced toward us.
Seeing how serious he looked, Chen Kun suddenly realized something and pressed him in a low voice.
“That’s right. We can also reduce our forces. We only need to guard one entrance.” He Youguang stared at the map and echoed him.
Sometimes, a dark horse could emerge: a film that received a low score from the official publication might ultimately make a stunning comeback and win the grand prize.
The velociraptor was enormous, and Hao Lang did not bother separating the meat into foreleg and hind-leg cuts like a butcher. He simply chopped it into pieces and piled them on the wooden table.
They were about to part. Nan Song’s mouth was as hard as wood, but she was reluctant to leave him all the same. Tilting her head slightly, she returned his tender, fleeting kisses.
The Forbidden Profound Blessing Talisman I cast and Fatty’s Five-Thunder Talisman activated at the same time, striking toward the Painted-Skin Ghost.

After the battle, only a handful of players remained alive in the village besides the non-player characters. As a result, the men from Hanyang City who came after hearing the commotion to hunt down the Black Wind Bandits noticed nothing amiss.
Now that Anton had told him there were slaves planning a rebellion, an inexplicable unease seized him. Everyone knew how enormous the slave population was. If those people truly turned the world upside down, Herbert had no doubt that they would tear him limb from limb, string him up to burn alive, and subject him to a thousand cuts.
Although his expression was calm, his heart had long been churning like stormy seas. He could neither stand nor sit at ease, thinking of Tao Zhuo every moment.
The Pingxin of old had possessed the strength of a Saint only within the Underworld; she could not truly be considered a Saint.
As soon as he arrived in this world, he had gone straight to the restaurant, completely forgetting to exchange currency at a gold shop or bank first.
After reaching the peak of the Essence Refining Realm, one’s body became strong and healthy, with seemingly inexhaustible stamina. It was rare to become completely exhausted.
Shangguan gazed at the enormous Demon Emperor Chariot disappearing into the distance, along with the three Ancient Glazed Chariots leading the way, and could not help drawing in a sharp breath. If Wu Yunqian had not deliberately given them false information, then that direction led straight toward the Ancient Witch Clan, did it not?
The fifty thousand immortal stones had originally been payment for Leng Xin, but by now, nearly all of them had been spent on Jiang Dongyu himself.
“My lord, what is happening outside?” Bai Yuntian asked. Just moments ago, he had sensed a trace of unease.
He was just about to walk over when several boys passed by. Li Yanyang quietly approached and stopped at a spot where he could hear them clearly.
Chen Daye drew a deep breath, then turned and walked out. Once he had stepped through the doorway, another fit of coughing seized him, and this time he spat out a mouthful of blood.
