No matter how hard Chen Yimo racked his brain, he never imagined that upon finally meeting the ultimate boss—whom he had already defeated once—she would utter such words.
Clearly, she was shy. Her head had been spinning earlier, but now that she had calmed down to reflect on the scene, it was indeed a bit much.
She took a paper packet from her cloak, opened it, poured something into the kettle, and set it to boil.
Although Lin Dong had not agreed to go to the hospital, he had promised to help treat patients, so they were still very grateful.
It was impossible to count how many times this had happened; in any case, every instance of such simple care filled their hearts like honey.
Within the sword formation, killing intent surged, and the sharp sword aura was nearly identical to the one Ye Shaobei had just unleashed.
"How long have you been awake, President Chen?" Mo Liang, sitting up in bed, yawned and stretched his stiff arms after waking up.
Gu Ansheng’s breath brushed against her face; Qiao Jinyue, never having been this close to a man, felt her cheeks flush and took two steps back.
Chen Wei stepped on a dead branch, the cracking sound snapping the attention of both men back to him.
Yet he remembered nothing. He felt aggrieved, so aggrieved that he wanted to do something to make up for the regret in his heart.
Brother Guang counted with every blow. Chen Yang, holding Mu Xueyao’s bag, waited until Brother Guang reached one hundred before turning to walk away. By then, Brother Guang’s face had swollen into a bruised, puffy mess.
As the venue for Yu Ruo’s concert, Hollywood was currently the most densely populated area on Planet Isabel. Logically, the "H" creatures in the vicinity should have been thoroughly cleared out. In reality, however, Qishi and the others had already hunted down three "H" creatures there by the second day.

Chen Yang put down the phone. Things had reached this point, and there was no other way; if he didn’t go back to retrieve the item, there was no telling what Li Jiayi might do to him. In any case, Chen Yang was planning to go home anyway, and since he still had the dagger on him, he needed to put it back. Li Jiayi’s call provided the perfect excuse.
Fortunately, the low particle density and reduced gravity in space made manipulating biological weapons much easier, and with Lin Li’s ability, he could control them quite well.
"Hmph, let’s just wait and see. We’ll see if I can’t shake him off," Xiao Tianci retorted stubbornly.
Sensing the clash between the two domains, Li Zhi recalled the domain space of the Fire Demon from the past. That domain was far inferior to the Hell Lord’s domain at this moment; the Fire Demon had only sent a projection, and its projected domain was much weaker than those of these tangible Hell Lords.
We need not fear slow progress. As long as we maintain a sufficient foundation to make the world wary, and we don’t rush our steps and make mistakes, no one can affect us.
Zong Feng immediately climbed onto the kang as well. He wanted to get a good look at his father, to see what this man he hadn’t seen since birth actually looked like.
The troops led by Wang Yi were primarily responsible for clearing out the rebels within the city. Thus, his unit did not chase the enemy out of the city with Su Dingfang, but instead immediately secured the area around the palace, joining forces with a detachment of Murong Shun and Murong Xue’s men to search house-by-house for those involved in the rebellion.
Li Zhi’s sinister voice echoed in Aifunisi’s mind. In truth, Li Zhi’s tone was flat, but his actions appeared truly malicious to Aifunisi. "Don't come any closer, don't come any closer! Winster, what exactly do you want?" Within the domain space, only Aifunisi’s panicked cries remained.
Could he be unaware that Tang Sanzang was the reincarnation of Golden Cicada, a disciple of the Tathagata, and the pilgrim chosen by the Buddha realm?
Looking into the distance, one could see a group of people strolling along, with the person in the lead holding a large black dog on a leash.
The more she thought about it, the more frightened she became. Guilty, she silently lowered her body, submerging half her head in the hot spring, leaving only her blinking eyes visible.
Crossing the entrance to the secret realm, one found a starry night sky outside, while inside, the sky was clear and vast. Many cultivators from the military prefecture were moving back and forth along the mountain path, transporting various pieces of equipment.

Just as Chen Fan felt satisfied with his gains, a voice came from his side.
Capturing nearly 500,000 Soviet troops in one go was a victory bordering on madness. It shattered the record for the scale of encirclement set by the German army in Poland and became the new "largest annihilation battle in history."
The cassock was merely something Wang Hao had conjured up on a whim to test the old monk’s true nature, so he naturally gave it no further thought.
If anyone felt the change most deeply, it was Wang Xizhi. Before, he couldn't walk a few steps without struggling, but now he could jump and bound about without even getting winded.
At this moment, everyone stared at the screens before them. Upon seeing these images, they all felt their hair stand on end.
Recalling his most loyal attendant, Nan Xinghun could not accept, no matter what, that Nan Yong had betrayed him.
Bai Han’s complexion changed, turning deathly pale with fear; he was no match for the square-faced puppet.
Zhao Shang grew increasingly alarmed by the man's words. Linking them to the behavior of his subordinates over the past few days, he began to feel deeply uneasy as well.
Chen Ge, who was by Mrs. Lu’s side, was the first to react. "It’s Father talking, Mother, it’s Father talking!" He exclaimed, then took off running toward the clinic.
"What did you say to him?" Yiyu asked, looking curiously at Shen Jiantang, who was hesitantly knocking on Xiao Ting’s door.
