Back when we were little, in the winter, you’d cover yourself with three..."

As Liu Tian passed by a vegetable market, he stopped the car, bought some groceries, and then continued on his way to the Lin family residence.

Enraged, the Blood Flood Dragon King immediately activated his divine arts, pushing his strength to the sixth level of the Eternal Realm.
