"You claim the merchandise quality at Yu's Grocery is poor? Are you guys kidding me? Everything they sell now has exceptional results. If you're going to smear them, at least try to be a bit more professional!"
"Yu's Grocery does have one major flaw, and that is that it's way too expensive!"
"A capitalist store exploiting ordinary people? Hahaha, you guys really overestimate our little Yu's!"

Lin Qingtong knew nothing of the sequence of events, but this did not stop her from gazing at Wei Xian with stars in her eyes. Inheriting her mother's looks made her no less stunning than Su Yan, the campus belle of the First Municipal Hospital. However, her upbringing determined her inner temperament; in terms of aura, Lin Qingtong was merely a village belle, whereas Su Yan carried the grace of a national peony.

Yan Xi glanced at the situation in the sky, and just as she was about to explain, Zhang Yue's voice echoed in everyone's minds. Understanding each other instantly, they nodded in unison. Continuing to operate the artillery turret with the aid of Zhang Yue's soul power, Yan Xi caught sight of the approaching army of a hundred and adjusted the gun barrel accordingly.

The airflow gathered in her palm with a gentle vibration, and the previously barely audible heartbeat gradually grew stronger—thump, thump—as blood began to circulate, laboriously forcing its way through the stiffened blood vessels and warming the icy body.
Suddenly, four black panthers launched a simultaneous attack on Xuelan. Failing to distinguish the real one in time, Xuelan mistook the phantom before her for the panther's true body and raised her hand to strike it. Meanwhile, the real black panther behind her revealed a cruel gaze; if that blow landed squarely, Xuelan would undoubtedly suffer severe injuries or even perish on the spot.
Wang Lin gritted his teeth and crouched down, a throbbing pain shooting through the blood vessels in his legs that had only just begun to regain their circulation.
"You brought this upon yourself." Not only was the Demonic Sect youth's voice ice-cold, but the suffocating demonic qi also transformed at that moment into countless shards of black frost.
Opting for a secluded seat since the efficacy was good, Liang Xiao was evidently not visiting this place for the first time. He was mentally prepared for the grime and squalor of the environment, so he felt no discomfort whatsoever as he sat down. With a dull thud, he plopped straight onto the stool.

The Sword God Dugu stepped eight consecutive times against the mountain wall. Following the eighth step, the mecha altered its trajectory, shifting from a straight upward ascent to a vertical dive.

No, he was a man, and the head of the household; he had to display some attitude, otherwise Xu Xiaoya would turn into a second Du Ruo—no, how could she ever compare to Du Ruo? At least Du Ruo was more sensible and magnanimous than her, surpassing her by several tiers in both figure and appearance.
A wave of joy washed over Aunt Chen. It seemed the madam still possessed her sanity, which was for the best. Mr. Mo and the madam would surely mend their relationship.
"Weren't you acting all arrogant earlier? We can spare you, but on one condition: go outside and apologize to the people of the Star Soul Mansion!" Leng Qiushui said coldly, her freezing gaze sweeping across them and causing the three to tremble in terror.
