"It seems your cousin has no other tricks left. Thank you for the warning; I will be sure to pay special attention when I kill Mu Yuyao."
Chu Tianxing said expressionlessly, "Mu Yuyao and your Mu family will soon join you on your journey. You go on ahead."
Seeing Chu Tianxing raise the Slaying Demon Sword, Mu Ping's soul nearly left his body, and he shrieked frantically, "No! Don't ki—"
Puff!
In an instant, Chu Tianxing severed Mu Ping's head with a single sword strike. The headless corpse collapsed to the ground, and blood spurted wildly from the neck cavity.
"Brother Liu!" At this moment, the burly man surnamed Zhao broke through the encirclement and lunged down beside Liu Yuting's corpse.
"Elder Chu, step back." The elders of the Alchemy Pavilion arrived shortly after, each with dual—

The moment these words were spoken, the memory of the time Song Jiaxin and I spent trapped together immediately surfaced in my mind.
Late at night, my mother tearfully placed a stack of cash by the pillow, asking me to buy an identical phone and return it to Wang Sirui.
Ever since resigning from his post as commander, Yue Fei had remained behind closed doors, refusing to see any more visitors. Many military officers in Lin'an who came to call upon him were turned away one by one.
Thus, while Xu Xingran was deeply engrossed in his mobile game, He Hansheng strode out leisurely with his long legs.
Earlier, when he spoke of the rebel army being suppressed, the diners—being ordinary commoners who resented the officials far more than the insurgents—showed no joy at all. But the moment he mentioned the hero sent from the heavens, the main hall instantly erupted into an uproar.
The Lan family steward smiled pleasantly as he held a signed dowry list, glanced at the elderly Marquis's expression, and took his leave with practiced efficiency.
"How strange of this junior schoolmate. He told Tingting he had something to discuss with me, but when we met, he didn't say a thing. Is he playing some kind of hard-to-get game with me..." Meng Hedan muttered to herself.

Fu Zhiyi was the first to rush out, walking over to Lu Zhenzhen in a few strides. The corners of his eyes were red, yet his expression was joyful, even thrilled.
Sun Erniang, however, was not flustered, because although the Jiaofangsi could not purchase wine, it possessed a powerful backing: the Ye Family Winery.
It didn't stop until the ninth coffin was hauled up, followed closely by a massive quantity of fish.
Ai Baoguo looked dejected, saying he had no appetite, and that over the past few days, neither he nor his mother had eaten more than the equivalent of a single past meal.
In early September of the first year of Zhangwu in the state of Shu-Han, the Emperor of Han, Liu Bei, mobilized seventy thousand troops from Sichuan at Baidi City, advancing simultaneously by land and water. He joined forces with General Who Conquers the East Guan Ping's division of forty thousand from Jingxiang, making a combined force of one hundred and ten thousand—claimed to be two hundred thousand—as they traveled down the river and pressed directly upon Jiangxia.
"Born different, there's no way to explain it." Spreading her hands toward Beiming Changfeng, Ziyu gave a half-true, half-false explanation for the divine needle technique she had suddenly displayed today.
Behind her, Feng Wuxing, Yan Chen, Yan Lin, Yan Fei, and the others lined up, all staring at Luoyu with curious expressions.
"It is precisely because I know that I must go." Yun Shitian's voice was as cold as ice, a thick murderous intent flashing in his eyes.
"You're sorry to me?" Yu Haoxuan repeated Qingyi's words, then stared with dead eyes at the jade ring in his palm. Suddenly, he clenched his fist, reducing the ring into turquoise dust.
Everything proceeded in silence, as if they were performing a silent play. While the corner of Ziyu's eye twitched uncontrollably, her gaze remained locked on the entrance. Had some major figure arrived?
Er Hanzi said belligerently, "I don't care about master plans or branch plans, I only look for you, President Ma. Wherever you move, I move. If you're a bit tight on cash for equipment purchases, you must let me invest and buy a share, or even take a loan."
If they hadn't mentioned my father's name, I wouldn't have eavesdropped. I am an educated person and would never do such a dog-and-pony sneaky act.
The few of them looked at the corpse on the ground, their faces instantly turning pale. The Divine Soul Dharma Body realm was considered an expert on any side, no matter the place. Yet now, someone had killed him so casually, as if dispatching an ordinary Qi-refining cultivator.
Vines hung down from the trees above, densely arranged to form a four-sided mosquito net, completely blocking out the sunlight that managed to filter through the canopy.

On the other hospital bed, the neglected Yi Chun lay there listlessly, numbly chewing on an apple.
With a sweep of his elbow—seemingly effortless, yet brushing past the chest of a ruffian whose axe had exhausted its momentum—the man's chest quietly collapsed like melting snow, and he vomited a mouthful of blood, collapsing limply to the ground.
This wolf was none other than the direwolf king that Landon had subjugated when he first arrived on the surface world.
Because the role he was currently playing was a young grandmaster who had killed someone and ended up in prison, his previous fierce glare at Old Yan was merely a performance put on for Bao Qiang's benefit.
For instance, right now, when everyone present expected Yang Zining to collapse in agony under the muscular man's punch, the unexpected happened.
The magical electromagnetic cannon built by Tony was actually a rushed creation without any prior testing. Only the destructive power of the projectile could be predicted; failing to retreat immediately after firing meant certain death.
As "being able to defend and counterattack" became a "universal rule" adopted by everyone, it directly led to a significant decrease in the number of eliminated candidates in the second round, despite the addition of the 50 iron balls hovering above their heads. By the end of the second round, only a little over 60 people were eliminated.
The three tomb guardians all wore complex expressions; they truly did not hope that Qin Ke could inherit the legacy of this ancient dynasty.
"Perhaps I only considered the possibility of your high-level cultivators secretly spying nearby, which is why I resorted to this desperate measure to live," Xun Yi said, looking around the surroundings with a serious air.
After inquiring about various items, Xun Yi took only one hundred Nascent Infant stones, threw a portion of the pills to Jiang Da, gave the remaining pills and Nascent Infant stones to Yue Hong, and stowed everything else back into Young Master Jiu's cosmos sack.
The crowd discussed loudly without any restraint. Dao Tianchen heard everything clearly, which only made him feel even more ashamed. Overcome with sudden anger and agitation, Dao Tianchen staggered backward several steps, vomited a mouthful of blood, and collapsed onto the ground, looking utterly wretched.
