Chapter 48: Love at First Sight

However, after a moment of hesitation, he still nodded heavily, as if that single nod had consumed every ounce of strength in his body. Although he knew that by nodding, he might lose the throne of the patriarch, having suddenly awakened, all jealousy had completely vanished from his heart.

They both carried their respective missions. No matter how deeply they understood one another, this battle to the death was unavoidable.

All four of them had dyed their hair in gaudy colors, wearing floral shirts and shorts with bare arms, staring at him with utterly arrogant expressions.

"Alright, alright, stop making a fuss. I'll agree to Zhao Moya's request. It's just some psychological test, anyway; I'd like to try it out too." I waved my hand helplessly, not wanting Zhao Moya to keep making a scene, so I took the initiative to agree, which would also make her shut up.

He played a casual match to warm up his hands and ensure his condition was optimal, making sure no major flaws would slip through due to poor form.

Could it be that this cat was captured by the tomb's owner? Did it try to struggle but failed to escape? To verify my hypothesis, I quickly planted and lit three spirit-soldier incense sticks before the grave. My purpose was not for them to help me track a trail; the only command I gave them was to find the cat and bring it to me.

With all these conditions sufficiently met, any human muscle could keep working indefinitely without fatigue.

Ever since returning from Qingchuan City, Gu Bei had never contacted Tian Tian. It was not out of evasion; on that night back in Shilin City, Tian Tian had revealed her feelings to him. He was somewhat moved, but he conveyed his stance through silence. He figured that the perceptive and intelligent Tian Tian must have understood.

Xu You listened in amazement. Although not entirely identical to modern designated hotels, it already possessed the embryonic form of that concept. The inherent specialty of public authority made it immensely attractive to wealth—a truth that, from ancient times to the present, had never really changed.

I snorted and said, "What is there to fear? Sooner or later, justice will be served for this matter." My master smiled and replied, "If you were an ordinary commoner, you might indeed live to see such a day. But you are a Taoist practitioner, someone who studies metaphysics and spreads feudal superstition. You might as well give up that hope right now."

Finally, they managed to find a decent night club. Weijia knew that by this late hour, Cici, that night owl, must be ready to be fed.

"That is the courtyard where you reside, but passing through the forest leads to the old Madam's courtyard as well. It is hard to say—should I follow her?" Leng Qian said calmly.

Meanwhile, Feng Le's hands were performing a frenzy of reverse hand seals in front of his chest. This was only the second time Feng Le had ever needed to execute an offensive technique in this manner, but every time he unleashed it, the attack proved overwhelmingly dominant and fierce.

A series of muffled explosions echoed within his body. Expending every ounce of his strength, Miao Qian finally forced away the viscous binding force, restoring freedom of movement to his limbs.

"No way! Facing a face like that, how could Young Master Bai bring himself to do it?" someone retorted.

When that power of myriad phenomena pierced straight into the clouds, the entire universe seemed to be immersed in a world governed by the power of myriad phenomena, with all living creatures resting under Feng Le's watchful gaze.

"Woof! Woof! Woof!..." The moment Doudou and the snow leopard saw intruders causing trouble—especially those who had just snatched their food—they immediately threw a tantrum. Every hair on their bodies stood on end. Seeing one of them pointing directly at Li Yunfei, the snow leopard lunged forward unhesitatingly and bit him hard.

When Lin Mingcheng killed his first Japanese soldier, his hands trembled slightly. He slashed three times in succession, almost severing the Japanese soldier's head entirely. If an experienced veteran nearby hadn't quickly stepped in to finish off three Japanese soldiers in a row, the entire operation might have been exposed.

"Good! Let the feast begin! Haha! Today, Your Majesty shall taste what tiger meat truly tastes like!" Hearing Li Yunfei put it that way, Li Shihmin felt his interest thoroughly piqued, and with a grand wave of his hand, he gave the order.

Although Shirogorshef claimed to be an expert on the country and spoke fluent Mandarin, to many foreigners, Mandarin was undoubtedly the world's most complex language. For the single pronoun "I," Mandarin had as many as eleven different forms of self-address, such as *biren*, *moujia*, *wu*, and *zaixia*.

Li Qingyuan's spiritual power closely monitored the activity inside the cauldron, dropping in a snake's eye at regular intervals. Through this repetitive process, he had already thrown in over ninety varieties.

When a family goes out on a trip, there isn't really anywhere special to go since they had already explored virtually the entire planet. Yet Ling'er never grew tired of it; her favorite pastime was tormenting the spiritual beasts of the planet, and practically every kind of spirit beast had been ridden by her at some point.

Fang Hui remained completely unaware of these matters. Bidding farewell to the Ant King, Fang Hui emerged from the Myriad Poison Abyss. He no longer needed to wear his mask; once in the Dao Domain, there was no longer any use for it.

Chidome Mika was actually not entirely certain of success; the powerful marine beasts in the ocean were simply too numerous, and even she felt an immense wave of pressure.

"Aside from Compaq pushing hard behind the scenes, there was also the government's intention to ease relations with China, which is why it was given the green light." The informant relayed the intelligence he had gathered to Grove.

"Then what were you talking about just now? You were talking about me, anyway!" Yang Qing's expression softened slightly, but she was still determined to get to the bottom of it.

To the members of the Spiritual Clan, psychic beasts were like the warhorses of knights—their most vital companions.

Amidst the swirling snow, what appeared to be an ordinary walk actually spanned thousands of *li* in just a brief moment.

Ever since the Qi Luck System gained a personality, Fang Hui rarely heard the rigid "ding-dong" sound anymore, but correspondingly, the system's presence had diminished infinitely.

Remaining in the Song State was likely impossible, and even if he could stay, he could not propagate his teachings. Without the ability to preach, staying in the Song State was pointless to him. His life's mission was to spread the Dao and impart its teachings to the entire world.

Having reached an agreement, Chen Hao continued driving the boat forward. After traveling over a hundred miles, he docked at a port outside a city, used the two sisters' IDs and money to rent an SUV, and drove straight with them to the place where their parents had met with disaster.

This was the first time Hua Jiu had ever watched him use a sword formula. But of course, Chen Chuxun had sealed his sword intent within the "Cold Smoke Barrier," and shattering that intent naturally required an even more formidable sword intent.

Caught completely off guard, Hua Jiu collided face-to-face with two bandits. Expecting to be attacked, she was surprised when the two bandits swerved aside just as they were about to crash into her and continued fleeing.
