041, Disperse! Individual Plans!

When the other testers heard Qi Ran reveal that his stamina had been almost entirely depleted—to the point where he couldn't even trigger his skills—those with a more optimistic outlook, much like Anubis, felt a deep sense of resentment toward this young cub who kept dragging them down. Their faces all collectively twisted into expressions of pure annoyance. However, those harboring hidden and sinister intentions secretly rejoiced upon hearing Qi Ran say he had only 27 stamina points left.

Linge moved to the side of the Terror Cavalry; the Terror Knights bowed their heads in unison, paying homage to their King, their master.

"Damn it!" Yu Haiping couldn't help but curse upon seeing this well-known phrase inside, frustrated by how infuriatingly deceptive it was.

The heavens and earth are like giants, robust and endlessly renewing, yet they cannot endure the constant drain of spiritual energy without any return. Unable to kill the Sages—who have become one with the world—they have no choice but to prey upon cultivators who have not yet reached sainthood.

Just as Hu Yue was in his office contemplating the Pang family, Pang Xiao of the Pang family arrived with his younger brother, Pang Dan, to meet with Su Langtao, proposing to join the Second Battalion of Hu Yue’s Special Operations Division.

"Dark Night, is something the matter?" Luo Shengfu was still accustomed to calling Yu Haiping by his game name.

Meanwhile, Zhou Ruoshui stood before a lantern stall, having strolled slowly out of the Deyue Pavilion accompanied by Yu Xianglan and Xiangyue. She picked through the lanterns, waiting for Lu Jue’s arrival.

Ning Wei listened to the words of the Supreme Elders; though his face remained full of smiles, he knew exactly what was happening in his heart.

Qin Tian had already shattered Zhou Li’s arms and legs, leaving him to howl on the ground like a dying dog.

Watching the fire giant below get frozen by a giant ice python before it could even show off, the liches were truly caught off guard.

Lin Yue’s face was deathly pale. In the state of the Dao Absolute Martial Ultimate Technique, he could indeed evade the perception of the Great Sovereign of the Netherworld, but he could not maintain it for long.

Another path was to go to war, but that brought a host of problems. Lu Junyi’s subordinates were inexperienced, and it was difficult to gauge the proper boundaries. Furthermore, Lu Junyi was not a government official, and the local thugs didn’t necessarily fear him. Under such mounting pressure, it was hard to say how long Murong Yan of Daming County, who had long been dissatisfied with the Lu family, would tolerate him.

"Aside from those two, I don't believe you don't have other bodyguards. It doesn't have to be a bodyguard; your friends would do, or at the very least, a servant from the house. It just so happens that Uncle Han is free; let him take you," Ouyang Mushan said with a perfectly straight face.

"Beg me, and I’ll take you inside. How about that?" Lu Yan suddenly leaned in and whispered in her ear.

Although Teacher Mang did not have violent tendencies, he was, after all, a beast-kin, and he remained serious and eager when it came to matters of combat.

At that moment, footsteps were heard following them inside. Chen Fei had just sat down when Mu Ting, hips swaying provocatively, walked right up to him.

"Baby, why didn't you ask Mommy why I didn't take you to see Great-Grandpa and the others?" Leng Mushan asked.

Encountering an auspicious omen is lucky, but it depends on how much one absorbs in the end. If one is unlucky and encounters an element that is incompatible or repelling, absorbing very little in the end is an incredibly frustrating affair.

"Your lightning technique is decent, but your power is too weak. It’s useless." The giant palm slowed for only a moment before reaching down to grab Wang Chong by the head.

But regardless of who they were, anyone who entered this place had broken the rules, and thus, the outcome was always to be driven out. The method of expulsion was to create that very melody heard just moments ago.

Qin Chuan hesitated for a long time, but finally mustered the courage to reach out and take her delicate hand. It was as cool and smooth as jade, though Qin Chuan’s mind was entirely focused at that moment, leaving no room for other thoughts.

One of the King-level mutant monkeys stepped onto the Great Sword Vientiane, then grabbed Zhang Fei and shoved him toward its mouth.

Xiao Yong threw his long saber forcefully to the ground, fell to his knees with a thud, performed a deep bow, and walked away without looking back.

The guards and footmen of the security firm, though confused, could only sigh at their bad luck. They drew their blades and met the challenge, clashing in the midst of a chaotic brawl.

Thinking this, Zhang Fei turned his blade and struck down with a Holy Light Slash toward Duanmu Yu.

The car pulled to a smooth stop at the entrance of the Fu Group building. A bodyguard walked around to the rear door and respectfully opened it for the Third Master of the Fu family. He stepped out first, with Ning Sheng following closely behind.

If she could possess Zhang Fei’s love all to herself, it would be a source of immense happiness for Xia Lan; but for Tao Yiting, that would be far too cruel.

Ning Sheng, who had been looking elsewhere, turned her head instinctively. Before she could see who it was, a black shadow flashed before her eyes, and she was pulled tightly into someone’s embrace.

Both of them were around fifteen or sixteen years old. When the boy finished speaking, they both burst into laughter, including Zheng Lu, who was standing nearby.

Nanny Rong’s Needle: How does she have the face to say such things in front of the media? If I were Mr. Shen, I would sue her in court and ruin her reputation.

Xu Zhaomu cried and laughed at the same time, the events of eight years ago spiraling ever more clearly in her mind.

Jun Moye looked at Mu Han Yue with half-closed eyes, his long, narrow phoenix eyes alluring. His shimmering purple pupils were deep, and he did not speak, simply watching Mu Han Yue in silence.

As if accustomed to it for a long time, Cui’er wrapped her arms around his neck, panting lightly amidst a sheen of sweat. Everything before them seemed so harmonious.

She was no match for him, nor could she break into that sphere of golden light; she was even less capable of defeating him. Besides, even if she wanted to save him, she had to see if the person involved was willing to let her.

The Demon Shark-Dolphin King stared at the Ancient Sword of Tiance, which radiated a faint, dark red halo. Reflections of bloody, cruel crimson light shone in its pupils. In the next instant, it charged forward, causing the very earth to tremble and shake.

Cheng Yuanheng pretended not to see the dark expression on Huo Shangning’s face and reached out to place his hand on Song Yanyan. Song Yanyan could not dodge in time and was left helpless; in such a public place, she could not create a scene.

Before long, a man dressed in green was seen carrying a large bird into the main hall.

Rong Jue glanced at her inconspicuously, happening to see her tightly furrowed brow, and his own heart tightened along with her brow.
