Xiang Fei led Bao Bei directly to a street called Imperial Consort’s Long Sky, finally stopping at a towering hundred-story grand restaurant named "Emperor's Palace" at the end of the street. The palace gate was grand, standing ten meters high, with majestic upper floors made entirely of glazed tiles that shimmered brilliantly.
“Thank you, Brother Xu. It seems you even gave a bit extra!” Yu Zhiheng knew this was likely out of respect for Xu Dacheng.
For her, such a scandal would deal a severe blow to the company.
Su Yan regarded Qin Tang as an idol, and since Qin Tang was now her oss, she readily agreed and immediately took a taxi from school.
Fang Tianfeng was stunned, then instinctively said, “My memory is excellent,” repeating Wang Yuanchao’s words.
“Fine, I want to test it out. Let’s see whether your axe or my treasured sword is mightier!” Liu Yansong sneered. Thanks to Xia Pengtian and the others’ actions, he had enough time to summon the Immortal-Slaying Sword.
Lei tightly grasped Karin’s hand and said gravely, “Lord Hakarin, having a friend like you keeps me awake at night. We’d better not be friends—I’m unworthy of someone of your stature.” Suddenly, a dazzling golden light exploded from his fingertips.
Fang Tianfeng remained silent. Someone suddenly buying water was clearly not because it was superior; it felt more like paying protection money. Could this be a fortunate coincidence?
Then deny it? Setting aside that it didn’t suit my character, Bao Bei was not someone who dared to act without accepting responsibility. Moreover, now that Mei Rou’s father had made up his mind, would denying it do any good?
“Damn it!” Kaise stubbornly drew his long sword and hurled it fiercely at the defensive magic shield, but it was merely deflected by a sphere of azure light.
“You’re accurate with your throws! But I won’t give you another chance!” Wu Bin snapped irritably, grabbed the basketball, and bounced it twice on the ground. He feinted, attempting to fool Liu Xing, a rookie basketball player who indeed fell for it, tilting his body in the wrong direction.
iBoy’s big mouth began spouting wildly; Lulu took that moment to chase Verus away.
Whether to return or not unsettled He Qi, who wavered between hope and doubt. Yet before long, nightfall erased everything; He Qi’s lips curled into a smile as he drifted into a deep sleep.
957 was no fool. Crocodile was powerful early on, and if Crocodile unleashed a full rage combo, 957, an early-stage Cho’Gath, would not withstand it.

Du Zhiqing was astonished—what kind of magic did she possess? It felt as if she had fallen under her spell.
Everyone in Fengyang City sensed that something momentous might truly be happening. They only hoped it wouldn’t affect the masses.
Zet felt somewhat awkward, but since Abu hadn’t revealed anything in front of so many people, he was somewhat relieved.
Xixin Deng raised her chin slightly, cleared her throat, and began reciting the management regulations she had practiced countless times until memorized perfectly.
Because it was closer to other raw material factories, with convenient transportation and easy employee commutes.
He once suspected that some hormone secreted by these plants caused his hallucinations. However, since donning his protective suit, he had never taken it off and asked his teammates if they noticed anything unusual. It seemed only he experienced abnormalities.
Finally, in the last market district, he found a withered bouquet of roses—no, they resembled chrysanthemums. Regardless, they were fragrant. Unfortunately, the mosquito-repelling effect of white gardenias was absent; these served merely as perfumes.
“Oh my, what kind of tea is this? How is it so delicious?” Lin Yu exclaimed in surprise while Fang pondered nearby.
The saying goes, “Marry a chicken, follow the chicken; marry a dog, follow the dog.” When the Lao Ning family fell on hard times, Yu’er resolutely followed her husband to this desolate Lingnan Road, Gaoyou Liande County, and from then on endured a life of hardship.
They felt as if a thunderbolt had struck their hearts, desperate to flee, yet cowed by the overwhelming presence, their limbs numbed, unable to move an inch.
The female driver fell silent, dejectedly removing the white-thread gloves from her hands and tossing them onto the car floor littered with broken glass.
When all the mercenaries outside were infected, the Skinny One and Song Wenlu immediately pressed “E,” transforming into ghost hunters wielding dual Nepalese kukris.
Just as she angrily approached Sister Yuan to report, Yang Tian relented. This was the second time he had been bested by her.
Dozens of clan loyalists rolled their eyes back, foaming at the mouth, as if enduring hellish torment.

During this, Yun Feiyang, standing on the ground, had already summoned the Primordial Universe Sword. With a flick of his wrist, the sword shot forth with a ‘whoosh,’ instantly enveloping the Iron Dragon.
The gloves had lining, with the fingers and back of the hand embedded with scale-like metal plates to enhance defense. These inlaid leather gloves matched well with both leather and metal armor. In the future, family crests could even be engraved on the metal plates.
The soldiers gradually dispersed. Chu Ge returned to the castle with Martis and Alex, leaving only corpses scattered across the square. However, there was no worry about contamination, as these nameless NPC bodies would automatically respawn and vanish after a while.
Over tens of thousands of years, some peerless prodigies had succeeded in overcoming the one hundred and eight Supreme Sacred Technique Steles.
Because his mother, Lady Jiang, learned to cultivate medicinal herbs and often worked in the herb garden with He Yuanying, frequently meeting Xia Kai, Sun Simao whimsically asked his mother to take him to seek Mr. Sun’s teachings.
Before them stood a vermilion gate, freshly repainted. It exuded an ancient and weighty aura without any sense of incongruity.
Four players who left mid-game were current national team members—such stars could not be ordered around at will by the event organizers.
If all investments were this easy to negotiate, no game studio or company would be nearly driven to collapse over financial troubles.
Doctor Dong nodded affirmatively, saying, “He is a young man invited by Young Master Ni, apparently named Yun Xiu. It was my first time seeing such superb medical skills in someone so young, but unfortunately, he came and went quickly with no chance to form a connection.” He shook his head slightly, clearly filled with regret.
Opening the multiverse dungeon system and then the job change system, Chu Ge discovered several new classes available besides his original Mage, Martial Artist, Swordsman, and Paladin—three new classes had been added.
