Day 52 of Having No Thoughts
The ice arrow seemed to be the signal for the assault. As the saying goes, a single whistling arrow pierces through the clouds, and thousands of troops and horses arrive to meet it. Although LM had only a single aircraft left at this moment and lacked such vast forces, that single aircraft, carrying the immense destructive power of the explosive package, managed to exude the overwhelming momentum of thousands of troops.
It was utterly absurd. Turning metal and iron into weapons was originally meant to strike the enemy better and more effectively, while the art of external conditioning was forged specifically to counter sharp metal and heavy fists. It emphasized moving blood with breath and shaping flesh and bone with blood; generally speaking, the core essence lay entirely in breath.
As Pistole revealed his identity, the guards immediately became alert and distant. Since he was also one of the "big figures," those guards could laugh and make sarcastic remarks behind his back all they wanted, but who would dare to utter them to his face?
He pointed at the leaf, while the latter's eyes held a strange, mesmerizing radiance at that moment. Seeing this gaze, Sun Changning felt a slight sense of surprise.
Because of this, Sofia felt her hands were stained with blood, breeding a deep resentment toward Wang Ziye.
However, Zhao Deming, who had no understanding of fishing techniques, felt rather smug inside: Am I not also someone who, with a single cast, managed to catch a big fish like you, Director Ge?
Director Ge had been acting strangely today. Last year during the development of Wuzhifeng, everyone acted somewhat stealthily, akin to a sudden surprise attack; why was everything so pompous today, as if terrified that others might not know?
And those three cities were Nanzhou City, Changhe City, and the capital city of Quyang, all conquered by Beiming Yuanzhen. He also promised that from then on, the State of Xia would no longer need to pay annual tribute to the State of Nanling. Moreover, King Ning's son, Lu Nanyu, was currently staying as a hostage at the estate of Princess Beiming Yuanying.
When Xue Fei opened his eyes once more, he found that all the people of Changfeng City had returned, inexplicably back, except that his palms were completely empty.
"Brother Chu, there is something I do not know how to tell you. In fact, I have endured it for a very long time," Yan Mengfan said, controlling her tone as she spoke sentence by sentence.
Aside from the wreckage, Chen Jingzhai also selected a portion of ores, spiritual herbs, and spiritual plants. These items were specialties of the Lin Sea, and he even picked out several varieties of spiritual tree saplings.
The Supreme Elder wore a look of puzzlement, thinking to himself that since this young man had exhausted all his tricks, why did he still dare to utter such wild and arrogant words?
"Master, do you intend to take me as your wife?" Bibi Dong's little feet lingered at a certain spot and began a massage.
Yuan Mi first sat cross-legged and properly calmed her emotions. Then she took out her pill-refining furnace and placed it upon the blazing fire array patterns.
For a time, all the immortals in the Mohere Universe were startled. Many Heavenly Immortal avatars headed there, and the Pure Yang True Immortals could sit still no longer, because the auction catalog actually contained elixirs that could help them survive the Five Decays of Heaven and Man.
Once the spiritual trees grew up, they could yield spiritual wood. Spiritual wood was also one of the materials used for magical tools and had a very wide range of applications. In some ancient methods, spiritual wood could even be used to kindle pill furnaces or instrument cauldrons.
Seeing Jia Yun howling and wailing like a ghost, Ni Er suddenly recalled the heroic demeanor Jia Lang displayed when he brutally beat Ni Er up. Only then did he notice the extraordinary anomaly: such a formidable Third Master Jia had practically no presence within the Jia Mansion. Had it not been for the shouting of names when he passed the imperial examination as a scholar, probably very few people in the Jia Mansion would even know of him by now.
At this instant, Yang Zian felt that his life level and strength had ascended to another tier once again. After all, with each subsequent upgrade, the enhancement was massive.
"I've finished shopping; I bought everything that needed to be bought." Su Xiyue purchased some clothes and daily necessities for herself.
Shen Hanchen's brow furrowed slightly, An Xueyu widened her eyes in astonishment, and Shangguan Hong wore a look of utter bewilderment.
"You had to wait until I was riddled with scars before showing up? You will never know how much pain and despair I felt!" Su Xiyue raged.
Yet who would have thought that the person he held in the palm of his hand and cherished so dearly would die such a miserable death? How could he not hate?
Wu Sanfu was exceptionally eloquent, and his words made Wei Bao somewhat tempted. Indeed, since this matter had already drawn the attention of the higher-ups, failing to go and clarify things now would surely result in an endless stream of people being sent over. Letting people endlessly guess wildly afterwards would probably lead to an even worse outcome.
"Don't tell me there is still a dictionary of idioms on Tidal Island!" Zhan Lan pushed the door open with one hand and carried Su Xiyue into the room.
An Xueyu closed her eyes tightly, her eyelashes trembling softly in the air like cicada wings, and her complexion was extremely pale.
Huang Yaru was terrified. For how many years had she not been touched by a man? This man was her first man, and also her last.
Gu Baihui held Longyan for a moment before handing her back to Xia Shiying, and then she began greeting the two uncles.
Zhang Chen nodded. "Their momentum is like a rainbow, and their wills are united as one—on the battlefield, they are bound to be invincible!" Zhang Chen's words were filled with praise, and he did not skimp on his commendation.
In the sky, the golden light on Sun Monkey's body was vanishing at a visible rate. The golden armor on his body also disappeared, and his soul entity plummeted back to the ground once more.
"How bad luck! This weather changes on a whim. The mountain roads will be muddy tomorrow, and I'm afraid we won't be able to travel again," Zhu Wen said with extreme annoyance.
The dark blue interstellar warship parked before her at this moment was a River-class warship—larger in size, possessing superior defensive capabilities, and equipped with numerous weapon hardpoints on its surface. With permission granted, it could also be loaded with various armaments.
After reading these, Gu Tou pinched the few sheets of paper in front of him, looked again at Cheng Zhen who was still sobbing, and without saying anything, walked straight out.
"Mr. Su, the restroom is straight ahead!" The director pointed in the direction where Zhan Xiaoyu had left and said.
"Ten billion and eight hundred million years from now, I, Pangu, will reopen the heavens and earth and evolve all things. With the new order established, I shall fall into slumber once again," the giant god Pangu sighed up to the heavens, and instantly transformed into three streams of clear breath, vanishing into the endless void.
The fiery energy burned even the air. Fortunately, these combat arenas had been constructed by the academy elders with supreme divine powers; otherwise, they might have been incinerated by this dense fiery spiritual power.
Suddenly, the Wind-Breaking Blade in her hand flashed with a cyan light, and at the same time, her speed skyrocketed as she slashed toward Lu Ling's head.
Yuan Feng nodded. Although the Han Xin before him was respectful, Yuan Feng could clearly sense a trace of aloofness and disdain lurking deep within Han Xin's eyes.
Stunned by the figure of six million, Grandmother Lin failed to notice the trace of hatred lingering in the gaze she cast toward Lin Kang.
It was not until Gu Heng's car vanished from sight that Lei Yibin resumed the serious demeanor typical of the president of Wuyou.
Having said that, He Jing also smiled sweetly at Gu Heng and asked in return, revealing two charming dimples.
