Chapter 45
After all, it had personally led the demonic sea clans, under the witness of numerous other sea factions, to crush the radiant clan—their mortal enemies of tens of thousands of years—to such a wretched state. Only a single step remained to completely annihilate the remaining remnants of the light and become the sole sovereign of this vast domain.
At this moment, the immense chaos was triggered by a piece of news that suddenly flashed across another jade wall belonging to a demonic martial artist.
Consequently, by the very next day, all the disciples of the True Martial Hall swarmed out in full force to assist the Lei brothers in hunting down this group of individuals.
However, whether intentional or not, the majority of martial artists steered clear of a particular direction, as if the end of that path led not to fortuitous encounters, but to a life-claiming purgatory.
With Yixie's immense strength, this kick was undoubtedly like a heavy hammer, forcefully nailing Huang Erli's palm against the cliff face.
The squad leader punched the physical combination dial on the rotary gun cabinet, inserted the key, and as he turned the handle, a piercing alarm suddenly wailed through the dormitory. Yan Puyue and the others were genuinely startled at first, but immediately burst into amused laughter.
"Considering that you were merely accomplices, I can spare your lives and pull you back up, on the condition that..." Yixie deliberately dragged out his words, keeping them in suspense.
"Many thanks to all the honored guests for your patronage. Today's storytelling concludes here." Seeing the sparse crowd and the gradual dispersal of the audience, the old man did not linger and took his leave.
The third artillery shell landed near them once again, and the impact point was five meters closer this time. The drug cartel's security squad had fired three consecutive rounds toward Yan Puyue's position. Evidently, the enemy had concluded that this spot was the fatal weakness of the Third Squad, and intended to use sustained suppression to force them to rein in their offensive and buy themselves a breathing space.
Astonishing shouts shook the heavens, startling the entire capital out of its slumber, followed quickly by even more roaring cries.
The charitable foundation was operating smoothly, and Li Zhaofeng along with Li Ruibo were currently planning a major campaign to "farm energy." Wang Nuo decided to give them some time.
Carefully replaying the events of the day from start to finish, everything seemed flawless, yet he still had no idea where the problem might have leaked.
This sudden explanation caused Yehua's body to jolt violently. His cold, thin eyes narrowed slightly as he gazed at Hua Xuanji's slightly pale cheeks, feeling as though a raging fire were burning intensely within his heart.
As for the remaining officials who had no ties to the matter, they either lacked the strength or were unwilling to offend the powerful aristocracy, making him the most suitable candidate.
Fang Zhuo was practically his Bo Ya, a kindred spirit; while satisfying his personal hobbies, he could also deliver tangible political achievements. It was truly a sword bestowed by the heavens, piercing straight through the firmament.
Much like the peony, which became the king of flowers because it refused to submit to Wu Zetian's tyrannical might, yet among flowers, why were others never crowned as the floral sovereign while only the peony attained such status?
Who could have foreseen that, amidst the snowy weather and slippery ground, he was wearing the most ordinary of shoes that had soaked in the snow for so long, turning completely stiff. Losing his footing and slipping, he plunged straight into the lake, which was covered by a thin layer of ice.
She clutched her neck, coughing for a long while before slowly collapsing to the ground, glaring at me with bitter resentment while crystal-clear tears welled up in the corners of her eyes.
Han Yan spoke with a smile on his face. Although these words appeared to be addressed to Lan Lan, his actual intent was to direct them toward the Shadow Dragon.
After a long while, until her neck grew somewhat sore and stiff, Hua Xuanji drew a deep breath, lowered her head, pressed her lips together, and continued sorting through the medicinal herbs in her hand.
His parents were ordinary white-collar workers; even when they opened a clothing store the year before last, it had been blabbed about by the big-mouthed Zhao Ming.
The host delivered a nearly flawless narration detailing the past and present of this "Elf of Love," triggering a thunderous wave of applause from the audience. Countless young people yearned to possess it and secure a blissful romance.
"Young Master, how did you get injured so severely? How did this happen?" Zhan Zhong looked at Zhan Zhao's frail state and asked with deep distress.
Naruto's actions immediately caught Sasuke's attention. Naturally, Sasuke did not believe that such a rudimentary trap could successfully ambush a seasoned jounin.
"Then may I ask which Wang family you are referring to?" Ye Zang pondered that Old Wang must be a member of the Wang family, yet upon hearing those two words, the man's expression instantly shifted.
The officials were clearly well-versed in this routine. They lined up according to their official ranks and passed through the Huangji Gate into the Huangji Hall. He Gu, holding a mere seventh-rank title, naturally walked at the very rear, curiously gazing around along the way. Although in his past life he had also purchased sixty-yuan tickets to the Forbidden City, that was the Qing Dynasty's Forbidden City, which bore a vast difference from the sight before his eyes.
Consequently, the two of them developed a major disagreement. A sulking Xiaqiu Wuwei refused to speak with Huyan Jue Luo Xiu; no matter what he said to her, she ignored him entirely or pretended not to hear. After being summoned away by the housekeeper, she quietly wept by herself.
"Hehe, buddy, casually leaking a resident's information is grounds for termination!" The security guard in the guardroom grinned, revealing a row of yellow teeth.
The very raison d'être of the coalition organization was to safeguard the equality and independence of different realms, as well as the equality and freedom of individuals. Seated high above, Ye Qinghui said indifferently.
The island nation, having suffered successive economic blows, was incapable of providing housing for the massive wave of migrating citizens, leaving many ordinary people still living on the periphery of the mist barrier.
"Big brother, he is fifteen years old, not five. If he still isn't smart by now, then he genuinely has a mental deficiency and is just an idiot." Lu Si rolled her eyes on the other end of the phone call, wondering how on earth this person's brain was wired.
A waning convex moon hung in the night sky as two cars traveled down the dark road, four beams of headlights swaying amidst the gloom.
The traffic police did not intercept him. Having successfully escaped by the skin of his teeth, Li Lin decided to track down the captain the very next day to resolve his driver's license issue.
Some people thought I was dead, while others believed I was in prison, but in the end, I was still alive in this world.
Last time, because she injured Wang Hao and Brother Jiang along with the others, the police's leads were cut off, rendering all their previous efforts completely futile.
He raised both fists horizontally to block Whitebeard's punch, leveraged the momentum to execute a somersault over the attack, and evaded the heavy stomp of the giant foot. The next instant, he arched his body and darted forward.
Li Lin walked over to the window to smoke, smiling as he gazed at the scenery outside. He felt that this era was truly the golden age for doing business.
Her alluring figure pressed entirely against Gu Chengfeng, especially those parts not suitable for public broadcast, stirring up tumultuous ripples in Gu Chengfeng's heart.
My master spent her entire life dealing with antiques and collected numerous rare treasures, especially her black jade Buddha, which was an immeasurable treasure beyond price.
Upon hearing this, Mu Yunqing's expression froze instantly. The moment she turned around, she saw a trapdoor on the ground of the distant Mu Estate parting with a sharp snap beneath the shroud of darkness, and a square platform slowly rising upward.
