Day 24: Nothing to think about.

Clang! Hua Tianxiong dropped his great spear, retracted his posture, and looked on with satisfaction. He ran his hands along the shaft, gazing at the golden tiger head, which seemed to let out a roar.

In the distance, the sound of roosters crowing drifted from the Great Song barracks—the first call of the dawn.

As he retreated, he suddenly pressed his fingers to his brow, and a spinning Taiji symbol manifested out of thin air beneath his feet.

Yan You gazed at him deeply, her steps faltering as she retreated. The pain in her heart and the sorrow in her eyes finally twisted into a brilliant, haunting smile. "Goodbye," she said, before turning and walking away without looking back.

Song Yuyan was not a man of many words, but it was the first time he had sat brooding and drinking cup after cup like this. From the moment he took his first drink, Xia Yifei had sensed that something was amiss.

Still, the act had to be maintained. Jiang Laran ignored Hua Jitian’s posturing and began to study the formation map.

"Upstairs? I don’t think anyone is up there. I remember when we first moved in, Dad said he would stay on the first floor, Xu Hua and Yan Yan would be in the rooms next to his, and I, Qiuqiu, Aunt Wu, and Du Heng would stay on the second. I don’t think anyone lives on the third."

"President Gu, the Gu Corporation was among the first companies in the Imperial Capital to enter real estate. The profits are comparable to selling drugs—are you still not satisfied?" I looked at the insatiable man.

Uncle Li said that Mo Yishen had not set foot here for many years, yet Uncle Mo had asked him to bring her in. What could it mean? Was he expecting her to do something?

But time was running out; Marshal Mu had to immediately assemble the generals to select those who would compete against the Liao warriors.

"At least your gun is useless now!" Lu Chen tried to stall for time. They had already called the police, and they would arrive shortly.

"Please, go ahead." Cheng Mosu watched her quietly. She smiled slightly and returned his gaze. Only when she calmed her heart did she realize how breathtakingly beautiful Cheng Mosu was, and only then could she see his clear, limpid eyes reflecting a soul just as pure.

Everyone’s expression shifted. At the mention of the "Heavenly Beings," their hearts finally began to falter.

He would not be too explicit; otherwise, even if Tian Zhao failed to grasp his true intent, Yun Zhongda might still detect it.

Gone? I listened to his bizarre ramblings. A ten-meter-tall stone Buddha must weigh at least several tons; how could it be moved so easily?

Zhou Jian saw Dongfang Heran approaching and instinctively wanted to greet him, but then he caught sight of the man behind Dongfang Heran, and his heart skipped a beat.

He vaguely heard screams and cries of grief, but as the illusion faded, those sounds vanished without a trace.

"Did you see Youchen later?" A flicker of light crossed Long Youqing’s eyes. She regretted the words the moment they left her lips; she had been confined to the Third Prince’s manor the whole time—where would she have had the chance?

Nian Yun finally realized that when Guo Cong asked if she wanted to flee her marriage before the wedding, he hadn't been speaking idly; he had been prepared. If she had truly eloped with Prince Shu, he would have had his own estates and properties to support her. It was a pity she had wasted his good intentions.

Mu Yunfan scrutinized Mu Huanfeng, his sharp gaze filled with probing intent. Unable to decipher anything, he could not help but feel a growing curiosity about this sickly son.

Hearing the gunfire intensify at Panlong Ridge, Mogi judged that Yamagami Kiyoshi had encountered the main force of the 117th Brigade and ordered his units to charge.

Ye Qingcheng could not see the situation on the other side clearly, but she managed to make out that the Night Emperor was injured. He was clutching his chest, or perhaps his shoulder.

However, when he saw the brilliant feathers of the Qingluan, Ye Feng’s eyes shifted, and the smile on his lips grew intense.

He then reached out his palm and struck his own head violently. A dense, ghostly aura erupted, and the green flames in his eyes vanished completely as a new fire began to consume his body.

Wang Changjiu and the other officers felt as if they had received a reprieve; they led the remnants of the 118th Brigade as the rear guard, pivoted, and marched toward the northeast.

Ye Qingcheng took Xia Xun by the hand and walked out the front door in broad daylight. Walking along the marble path in the center of the courtyard, she looked at the scene with amusement, taking in every one of the people present.

Just as he kicked out, a figure rushed in front of him. The kick sent the figure tumbling, but Wang Gang behind him remained unscathed.

These men were middle-aged ruffians who likely spent their days drooling over Qin Xuanyi and indulging in daydreams. They were the most troublesome kind of scoundrels.

Everyone braced themselves with utmost focus. Capturing Evelyn would make them heroes of the entire town! The night grew darker and darker, until even the moon in the sky seemed frightened by the eerie silence and hid itself away.

"I think you’re just broke and out of your mind. Five million? Just because you learned a few parlor tricks for fortune-telling, you think you can fool us? Only a moron like Yu Lili would believe you. Sisters, let’s go." Cao Li picked up her bag with disdain and walked out; the other girls looked at each other and followed suit.

Getting caught cheating on a final exam—at our school, that is no minor offense.

The reason he brought Xiao Qiu along was that after she had a nightmare, she wanted to stay with Xiao Wu for a while due to fear and other reasons.

And it was fine for now, but if there were no early warnings in the future, the surface defenses of the base would have to be abandoned. After all, the insect swarm didn't just crawl on the ground; winged ones would fill the entire sky.

As her middle fingers traced through the air, rays of pale red light manifested, appearing exceptionally magical.

Almost simultaneously, I saw Old Master Huang opposite me stiffen. Without hesitation, I rushed forward and kicked him in the chest.

Seeing these results, Lin Mu was very satisfied; it proved that the pearls also had a repellent effect. Lin Mu returned to the ship, handed the pearls to Lu Fengqiang, and retreated back into the cabin.

Since the Chixin Underground Palace was an underground vault, the space within must be vast. Being so vast, two experts like Xiao Wu and Zhu Jiuxin could easily sneak in without anyone discovering them.
