After Li Tian had put on his clothes, Shen Feng discovered that his right chest was also embroidered with a large thumb, only several times thicker and larger than Amang’s. Its fingertip pointed skyward rather than toward the ground, giving it an air of absolute supremacy.
“This set of jewelry really suits you.” Yun Jinze took a long while before finally uttering those words, which was, frankly, somewhat disappointing.
After a brief moment of distraction, Su Yan was overwhelmed with joy. Fortune and misfortune truly went hand in hand; he had never expected to encounter such a wondrous treasure of heaven and earth in this place.
Liu Qianjun merely snorted and said nothing. His eyes remained fixed on the place where the giant monsters were fighting, as though he had not even noticed Kuang Sheng.
At dawn, a hunter and his son quietly appeared several hundred meters away. When they discovered the ring of ferocious beasts lying dead on the ground, they immediately became as wary as if facing a formidable enemy. Only after a long while did they cautiously approach.
The only inconvenience was that the two shops would have to close for several days while the passage between them was opened and the premises renovated. During those days, Hua Shangxue was not idle either. She took the opportunity to ask Hua Xiatian how the matter concerning Hua Jinglei should be resolved.
One had to remember that when he saw Zimo, it had only been that very night. Yet in the blink of an eye, an entire month had passed.
“Then let’s put the smell of blood aside for now and look around.” Simon turned his head and glanced at the navy dispersing in all directions. His gaze sharpened slightly as he decided to investigate the area himself. As for the source of the bloody odor, that could be left to Smoker and the others.
“You’re right. After all that exertion, I’m tired too. I need to go back, take a hot bath, and get some proper rest. I’ll be leaving now. See you tomorrow.” Hua Shangxue rose with a faint smile, said this, and then turned to leave.
Linglong Jade suddenly felt a powerful surge of dark-golden lightning rushing toward her. It pierced straight through her lungs and organs before crashing toward Li Mu. Yet after being obstructed by Linglong Jade, the lightning had weakened considerably by the time it reached him, and Li Mu casually blocked it.
Meng Mingzhou saw that no one was in the main room. In the kitchen, Mother Liu was washing last night’s pots and dishes with the maids.
Since Fragrant City still belonged to the British Empire, it was not difficult to find someone fluent in English who could fill in lyrics with artistic imagery according to Luo Li’s instructions.
The Madam listed so many of that fellow’s evil deeds in a single breath. He truly lived up to his appearance—he was no good bird at all, but a thoroughly rotten villain.

Liu De nodded without objection, picked up the things piled on the ground, and led the young man away.
From then on, at midnight on the first day of every month, Zhou Rui would receive a two-star lottery card from the lottery system.
Could he have been speaking ill of him? He had barely slept the entire night, and when he rose in the morning, he was sporting two dark circles beneath his eyes.
This enormous fleet consisted of the entire Third Squadron of the Northwest Coastal Defense Fleet, part of the Fourth Squadron, and more than a hundred transport ships.
Mo Li had eaten countless things in the Immortal Domain before, so how could he know what sort of strange thing the other man meant? But since he could not reveal his true identity, he could only pretend not to understand.
Yan Yun immediately circulated metal-element energy throughout his body, severing that sensation. He turned around and glared at Ma Xiangyun, completely failing to notice that Jia Qing’s voice had suddenly changed pitch while she was speaking.
Light once again spread throughout the entire level of the tower. Just as Zhuo Xiong had discovered, not a trace of smoke remained.
The sweat on Old Man Yanzhi’s forehead poured down like a waterfall under Big Sister Li’s scolding. Helpless, he could only laugh awkwardly and say, “Heh-heh, there’s a fight going on outside. Let’s go take a look…” With that, he seized Big Sister Li’s hand and flew outside.
“There!” Realizing that the voice had come from the front right, Liu Ye swung his fist, only to strike empty air.
That was the bullet Dabao had taken during a mission. It was the only injury he had ever suffered, so he had hung the extracted bullet around his neck as a memento.
Since the founding of Great Capital City, the Resolution Bell had rung only twice, including this occasion. The previous time had announced the establishment of the Three-Committee system, but no one knew what had caused it to ring again now.
At that moment, Nan Tiancheng was surrounded from head to toe by a fierce, murderous aura, yet his smile remained warm and gentle, like the sun rising at dawn. These two utterly incompatible qualities blended perfectly within him, making Nan Tiancheng seem even more sinister and imposing, enough to shake the soul.
He simply repeated the process again and again: issuing a challenge, defeating his opponent, and challenging someone else. He never seemed to tire, and the cycle went on without end. In those brief ten days alone, he had unknowingly set several records in the “No-Rules Comprehensive Combat” game within the virtual-reality arena.

Huang Liangchen was a three-star card master. When he had first enrolled, his mental strength had been so poor that the other societies had rejected him. In the end, through his own effort and superb swordsmanship, he defeated the societies that had turned him away and founded the One Card Reaching Heaven Society. He currently served as its president.
“Eunuch Qin certainly doesn’t like us wasting our breath!” Gongsun Wu said, borrowing Eunuch Qin’s name.
The entire altar was shaped like the character for metal, rising gradually from both sides toward the center. Its base, however, was unmistakably a rotating swastika-shaped mark. Stairways from all four directions led to the middle, with the intersection at the highest point. The base covered nearly the entire tower, creating a magnificent and imposing sight.
As expected of the Jun Family’s imperial heirs, each bearing the Seal of Jun, every one of them possessed the strength to challenge opponents one or even two star levels above them.
Hahahaha! Just thinking about it was exhilarating. For the moment, Jun Mo did not even bother to concern himself with his rapidly surging mental power.
The instant he heard the words “the poison has taken effect,” Zhuo Junlin felt his heart jolt. What followed was boundless panic. During these days, that had been the unspeakable pain lying between them. They never spoke of it, yet each of them understood.
Wu Yu could only smile bitterly inwardly. Although he had not served as a teleportation guard for very long, he had gained some understanding of this Immortal, Demon, and Beast Realm. The Ziwei Star Region was extremely famous, and naturally he had heard of it.
Thus, when they fought, they relied mostly on their formidable spiritual sense to lock onto one another. During an exchange of blows, they depended entirely on their keen spiritual perception to withstand their opponent’s attacks rather than on their sight.
“Take it with you after all. Otherwise, my old heart will have gone to waste.” The old woman beside them spoke up.
The Armored Man! Although the Armored Man was a demon monster created through artificial means, there was no doubt about his strength. Ye Hui, who had devoured two different sources of power, was still no match for him. That alone proved that the Armored Man ranked among the upper echelon of experts in the Great Circle Realm.
Although Zheng Xiyuan possessed more advanced immortal arts, he had decided to do as the locals did and use a magic formation powered by magic crystals, so as not to cause turmoil in this world.
