Chapter 66

However, ever since Yue Lingfeng mastered the Nine Swords of Dugu, everyone's moves appeared full of flaws in his eyes, allowing him to anticipate the enemy's every move in advance. A mere glance from an opponent or a slight twitch of a shoulder was enough for Yue Lingfeng to predict their next action.

If one were to deduce the situation, it was likely that Lü Jiawen had usurped Wang Juqing's credit, or perhaps Lü Jiawen had monopolized all the glory for implementing the policy while Wang Juqing, despite being the one who proposed the method, was left completely forgotten.

"Comrade, there are none left. Yesterday was already the last bottle," a man of over sixty years old replied in a hurry.

In later generations, windmills were envisioned with four fan blades spreading out in a cross shape, but the windmill Han Gang saw at this moment had a vertical central axis. Seven or eight fan blades hung in a circle along long poles extended from the axis, resembling the masts used to hoist ship sails, only with a few more sails attached to the mast.

"That is my soul's origin! Now that it has condensed to about thirty percent, with just a few more days of effort, it will be completely condensed. By then, I will be able to directly break through to the Condensing Spirit Realm!" Fang Yang was filled with spirit. At such a critical moment, every fraction of combat power gained was of vital importance.

This was Bordeaux, France, a port city close to the Atlantic Ocean, world-famous for its production of Bordeaux dry red wine. The world-renowned Château Lafite was produced right in this city.

At the crucial moment, Qin Feng remembered—didn't this creature have a ball of candlelight at the tip of its tail?

Lin Tian wore a indifferent expression. With a single step forward, he directly unfurled the Reincarnation Chart, having no desire to waste time sparring with Qian Choumo.

The cries of humble ants would naturally never be valued by the imperial court. After the Prince of Donghai took control of the political situation in Luoyang, in order to win over the powerful Wang Jun, he bestowed upon him titles including General of Chariots and Cavalry, Grand Commander of All Military Affairs in Dongyi and Hebei, and Inspector of Youzhou, and further expanded the fief of the State of Yan into the Commandery Duchy of Boling.

The candlelight began to flicker violently, and those wisps of dark smoke lurking in the shadows seized the opportunity to lunge forward fiercely, throwing themselves like moths into a flame, determined only to extinguish this single flicker of light.

"Zhijun!" Jian Yiyun, fearing that Mu Zhijun might blurt out something inappropriate, hurriedly lowered her voice to stop him.

Ai Yonggui trembled uncontrollably, feeling a sudden warmth and dampness between his legs, as if something uncontrollable was leaking out.

Han Zhenhan's teasing voice came from ahead. By this time, Han Zhenhan had already donned a remarkably bulky suit of clothes, and someone beside him was helping him drape heavy iron chains over his body.

The overwhelming torrential rain instantly poured down upon me, the rainwater streaming everywhere across my cheeks and shoulders.

I chuckled softly, leaned my head close to her neck, and squinted to examine it, sure enough discovering a trace of something unusual.

My heart skipped a beat. Staring somewhat dazedly at Ling Yefeng, could these words have genuinely come from his mouth?

The way she looked when she was learning to walk, the way she looked when she cried, the way she looked when she smiled, and the time I taught her how to speak, when she opened her mouth yet was utterly unable to utter a sound, her face turning red with anxiousness.

This time, although I believed she was indeed my mother, getting a DNA test done would always be a safer insurance.

I desperately wanted to roar at him that this hasty temper of mine was entirely forced out by him, but I did not want to interrupt his rare willingness to confess his thoughts.

I was startled, and then broke into a bitter smile. I had thought that since he hadn't seen He Zhixu, I might as well say less rather than more and not bring it up. Yet with his acute perception, how could he possibly overlook the person dining alongside Cen Xi? Truly, I was being naive.

Having been brought to this detached courtyard for three days, Murong Chong had merely ordered people to guard it strictly, while he himself had gone God-knows-where.

Humph, Luo Yiyi, let's see how you manage to clean up this mess today, and what you'll do! Let's see if you ever dare to make fun of me again!

I had originally intended to rest at an inn for the night, but considering Ouyang Ruoxi's capabilities in this place, she would undoubtedly be found by tomorrow. If she were dragged back just like that, wouldn't all the suffering she endured today have been for nothing?

"Come on, Chinaman, let me show you the true power of our three legendary swords of Japan," Jingyi shouted, pointing the blade in his hand directly at me.

Sitting in the car, Zhou You recalled Xu Man's expression from this morning—one that looked as though she wanted to swallow him whole—and all three of Zhou You's limbs felt weak again.

Reaching up to pull the veil from his face, that extraordinarily handsome countenance appeared exceptionally striking in the dim light, and he looked at Ning Wu with a faint smile.

His knuckles cracked aloud. The plan he had originally intended to execute not only fell step-by-step into someone else's trap in the end, but also nearly cost him the influence he had planted in Southern Xia due to that fake military deployment map.

"Rest assured! Since you and I can be considered encountering an old acquaintance in a distant land, you may call me Xiuli from now on! This is a name I haven't used for countless years," said the aunt.

How could I possibly hide the money in a place where you could easily find it? Thinking this, Tao Hua's face revealed a helpless smile. She turned her head to look out the window; because it was a semi-basement, the view outside the window was naturally limited to things at ground level.

"But I hope Duan Chengyu will come and talk to me in person, after all, Yan Ruoyan is a person from his company." Su Nuannuan's unhurried tone made Cheng Jue break into another cold sweat.

Well, perhaps it was because I had been stuck inside for a while, hadn't touched a mobile phone for ages, and was isolated from the internet, causing my mindset to fall behind.

Grandpa Sun immediately caught a glimpse of hope and regained his spirit. He rushed forward in a few strides, almost dragging the terrified Luyu over to throw her into the room, using her as a stepping stone.

"What's the use of saying all this now? Hurry up and think of a way to solve it! If this matter reaches the old man in the capital, then we might as well wait for death!" Han Anqi said with an indifferent attitude.

They were all said to be towering figures in the empire's medical world—physicians possessing the most cutting-edge and brilliant medical skills in their respective fields.

"You're an idiot. Look at the bodyguards in those movies; aren't they all wearing sunglasses and black suits, then mysteriously trailing behind their boss? Have you ever seen a bodyguard who sleeps like yours?...", Chen He continued offering terrible advice.

Zhang Changxiu had imposed a ban on leaving the courtyard in a disguised form, which showed how truly infuriated he was this time. Hua Chu'er bit her lip, swallowed her cries, and quietly accepted the punishment.

The car crested a patch of lush, low hills and turned onto a man-made concrete road. The sides of the road were overgrown with weeds, and the grayish-white surface was webbed with crisscrossing cracks and covered in potholes due to a long lack of maintenance and repair, making the ride bumpy and uneven.
