Family affection is a healing remedy. When one faces failure and hardship, it can fill the wounded heart’s emptiness; after stirring the strings of that wounded heart, it can help one rally and rise again.
The horrific scene was reflected in Kalete’s pure blue eyes. The anguished cries and desperate pleas for help ringing in her ears all tormented her compassionate soul.
Futu smashed his fists together. The blue-grade Pagoda of Futu grew ever larger around him, even showing faint signs of turning white. This was the highest level of power attained through Futu’s Tendon-Transforming Art.
“As long as we obtain the power of the ancient gods, killing the deity dwelling deep within the ninth level of the Source will no longer be a dream.” Michelle’s hoarse voice echoed through the air, yet at that moment it sounded like a trumpet summoning someone to their death.
Sword energy battered half the towering serpent’s face into a bloody pulp and destroyed one of its eyes. The pain drove it mad, and it actually flung the monster from its head.
Liufeng desperately wanted to ask what had happened. Faking her death? He could not help thinking of that possibility. What had she gone through?
Besides, he was a disciple of Gale Hall, and everyone recognized that uniform. How dare this beggar treat him with such disrespect?
“Nine Transformations of the Divine Body—the fifth transformation!” he shouted in a low voice. His body began to change according to a series of strange, uncanny movements—bending and folding as bursts of teeth-grating cracking sounds rang out.
Liang Chen and Watson failed to climb to the eighteen-hundredth level. Though it was a pity, they could only become inner disciples of the Holy Land.
Watanabe Akira took Jiang Risheng to the Luxing Hotel not to arrest him. The Luxing Hotel enjoyed special privileges: night inspections were avoided there, and arrests were made only when absolutely necessary.
He could retreat into the aloofness of a male idol, remaining calm in the face of change and skillfully pushing and pulling others along. With the bearing of a domineering pond-owner and the impassive face of a man who seemed forever out of reach, he embodied the very image of someone no one could have.
On the other side, Lei Wu and another Dragonflame soldier assembled a stretcher from several items they carried with them, then laboriously hoisted the wounded White Tiger soldier onto it.

She stamped her foot furiously. It seemed they had been set up. Whoever started the fire must have known the place extremely well, smashing the medicine in advance before setting everything ablaze.
“What a strange organization... They are clearly at odds with this world, yet they live more comfortably than any organization in existence. Just who are they?” Yu Jin asked in confusion.
When Jian Ning saw Fu Jinyan, it was obvious that he saw her as well. His sharp brows drew together slightly, and his expression was impossible to read. Whatever it was, it appeared rather complicated.
Yet that only made her more tantalizing to the imagination. What was more, she wore a black bodysuit tight enough to outline her perfectly curvaceous figure. Any man would find it impossible not to steal several glances.
Mo Li had lost her memory. Her entire family had been murdered, and she was suffering from a grave illness. Qing Yi intended to take her to the Celestial Mountains in search of a snow lotus to cure her.
It no longer looked like an ordinary employee’s workstation. Instead, it resembled an office area belonging to a supervisor or an assistant.
“Slow-moving tin cans!” Sanford cursed as he raised his submachine gun and aimed at the ants swarming toward Muller’s larvae.
Long Xue rolled her eyes at Lu You in exasperation. In her opinion, Lu You was an idiot when it came to artifact refinement and knew nothing about such things.
None of this had anything to do with Lei Chen, however, because at Lei Xi’s urging he had already returned to Flower City. He had to begin establishing the new company at once.
The words “void” and “emptiness” encompassed everything in this Dharma Realm—there was no law and no heaven! But if it was the void, why call it a Dharma Realm?
“Very well. Now, let us discuss the methods by which you cultivate,” Li Xin said as he sat before the Zheng family’s ancestor.
“I think so too. Perhaps something has gone wrong with one of Blackwater’s core figures.” The moment Wang Peng heard Lei’s words, he understood what Lei was thinking and spoke with a grave expression.

Lanlan’s body trembled violently. She raised her head in disbelief to look at Gao Qing, who was bound to the wall, then pressed her lips together and shook her head.
Seeing Liu Gai step out of the vehicle empty-handed, the soldier began searching inside it. Everyone nearby was watching Wang Hai’s car. Su Xinlan, Fang Ying, and Li Xin’s two brothers stared fixedly at it, their hearts gripped by unbearable tension.
Bodhi’s fist struck Hu Ao squarely in the lower abdominal elixir field, yet it made not the slightest sound. Bodhi’s violent energy vanished strangely, like a stone sinking into the sea, and no one knew where it had been blasted.
By then, Li Jiahao was drenched in sweat from running. As he raised his hand to wipe his brow, he accidentally saw the two special-forces soldiers suddenly turn their guns toward him. He panicked at once. A moment earlier, he had been relieved that he had been pulled so far away; now, a chill ran from head to toe.
When the security guards saw these enraged men venting their fury on them, they merely shrugged and charged toward Meng Qi.
Seeing that Guo Ran still had not picked up his chopsticks, Qiyue could not help urging him to eat. Naturally, serious matters should be discussed properly after the meal. As for Guo Ran’s refusal to dine, it was nothing more than shyness.
Ever since Cong’er had become old enough to understand things, Cong’er himself, Yingchun, Auntie Guan, and even Jia She had all maintained the attitude that Cong’er would devote himself to the imperial examinations and forge his own future, rather than compete with Jia Lian for the family inheritance of the Rongguo Estate.
The Four Friends of Jiangnan were filled with astonishment and delight. Since Xu Yang was willing to concede, did that not mean the four treasures were already in their hands?
Morigen, Atai, and the others were deeply moved. Li Jinglong possessed such extraordinary breadth of vision that he had truly surpassed everyone’s expectations. If the matter settled with Li Heng today could be carried out, Li Jinglong would genuinely be remembered throughout the ages. It was something even Di Renjie had never managed to accomplish in his lifetime.
The tranquil atmosphere, like a paradise secluded from the world, offered an altogether different kind of pleasure, allowing one’s body and mind to sink blissfully into the fragrance of the vineyard.
