“I... where am I...?”
Lin Jiyan’s voice was as faint as a wet cotton thread. Her eyelids felt too heavy to lift. Just as her consciousness began to return, a cacophony of clashing metal reached her ears—the crisp ring of blades striking one another mixed with the dull thuds of tentacles slapping the ground, making her temples throb.
Her body, however, was unusually warm. Rather than lying beside a freezing pool, she felt as though something were holding her securely aloft.
She struggled to part her eyelids. Through her blurred vision, the first thing she saw was a—
A demon hunter clad in iron armor suddenly had his throat slashed by a single stroke, blood gushing forth. Clutching his neck, the hunter dropped to one knee as the surrounding mercenary cultivators swarmed him like starving wolves.
“Do you people want a drink?” Yu Tianheng finally said after staring silently at the state Tang San and the others were in for quite some time.
In an instant, the aged hand holding the teacup froze in midair. The old man in plain robes raised his eyes, and deep within his placid gaze, still as an ancient well, a terrifying glimmer appeared.
Li Zhengwu and Zhen Yue did not spare the two men a glance. Led by a waiter, they calmly made their way to a private room on the second floor, apparently intending to eat and drink a little before taking a short rest.
When Di Ying turned back, someone gestured for him to sit down and then stuffed a flatbread into his hands.
With the conclusion of the Great Ceremony of Luotian, most of the extraordinary people who had come to compete had already departed. The entire rear mountain of Longhu Mountain gradually returned to its former tranquility.
Chen Lulu had intended to walk toward the front of the plane and ask Li Siwei about it, but the cabin doors had already been closed and the plane pushed back. The flight attendant would not allow her to get up and move around.
Tang San spread out the Blue Silver Domain, concentrating completely as he listened to the Blue Silver Grass covering the ground report the locations of the Spirit Hall’s people. Then he sprinted toward the direction where no one was present.
Just as Mr. Tu was trembling with fear, he suddenly felt a powerful evil thought pour into his sea of consciousness.
Some bosses in games bore the titles of gods, yet players had beaten them into the instance and slaughtered them time and time again. As for conquering the myriad realms, that was nothing more than opening a new map to level up and fight monsters.
Greensell did not believe that Keli was deceiving him, even though she was explaining to the elemental creatures how to stop elemental creatures right in front of them.
Ji Kao’s expression remained unchanged. He gave Li Bai and the others a warning look, then waved his hand and prepared to lead his people away.
As he spoke, the movement of his hand suddenly faltered. Then he understood why Qin Ling dared to do such a thing, and for a moment, he found himself hesitating.

Suppose that one day all the bacteria in the world suddenly formed a meaning network of their own, and ultimately gathered together because of it. What would happen to the world?
What puzzled the Jade Emperor was why the Ancient Buddha Dipamkara remained unmoved by Shakyamuni’s actions as well.
Everyone fell silent. At first, they had not taken Su Yang seriously, but now even the twentieth-ranked Rat had been quietly eliminated by him. Would they be next?
Although Jerry was curious, he knew that Congcong would never make a losing deal. Since Congcong said he would earn the money back, there was no need for him to ask further.
“Big Brother missed you!” Xiong Ge said suggestively. He lifted Gong Shanshan into his arms and carried her toward the bed. After all, this was hardly the first time they had done this. She still had some use to him, and so she had no choice but to become entangled with him.
“Just as I thought—they really do look alike,” Duanmu Hao muttered to himself. Her eyes were thirty percent like Han Jingxuan’s, and with another twenty percent resemblance in her smile, she actually looked half like Han Jingxuan when she smiled.
Everyone in the room burst out laughing at his antics. Yao Beibei grinned and cast Bai Ziming a glance, looking rather pleased with herself.
Chang Zi kept stuffing his mouth with food while trying to speak to Yao Beibei, but Fan Tuan glared at him each time and forced him to swallow his words.
Effect: Designate one item. For a certain period of time, the requirements for that piece of equipment or item are reduced by one level. The duration is directly proportional to the user’s Operation rating.
Zuo Shaotang gazed lazily at Wan Ningzhu. His eyes held a hint of approval; he had probably heard what Wan Ningzhu had just said, and it had struck a chord with him.
Zhong Shan’s cavalry had been divided into two groups. One group, numbering around thirty, patrolled the perimeter to maintain vigilance. If any members of the Black Earth Tribe broke through their defensive ring, their task was simple: kill—kill any Black Earth tribesman who attempted to flee. The remaining seventy or so formed a semicircle outside the Black Earth Tribe’s settlement.
Lu Yu simply turned off the light and buried himself under the covers, intending to sleep. Yet despite being thoroughly exhausted, he tossed and turned, unable to drift off. In the middle of the night, he got out of bed, washed his face, and once again stood before the gaming pod.
His head of black hair had changed color, taking on a pale-gray sheen. It contained the terrifying spiritual consciousness of madness, a chaotic and disordered state filled with endless screams, fused into one.
“Could this be the legendary Heaven-Devouring Beast?” Not everyone failed to recognize it. One person who did was Zhao Feiyue, who said so herself.
However, Qingfang Studio did not open branches, and it invariably closed at nine in the evening. Moreover, whether they were nobles and officials or ordinary people, everyone ate together in the main hall. The entire Shufang Studio did not even have a private dining room.
The Ghost Prince cried out in alarm and brushed his spatial ring. A streak of black light flew out from within, transforming into a black bead that struck the sword energy.
Perhaps Mu Mengxue had not thought much of it, but to him, such meticulous care moved the softest place in his heart.

Later, he would even occasionally joke about Nintendo’s free udon noodles, because they were the overtime meals Nintendo provided its employees. It was obvious that Uemura had often worked late while developing the new console.
Why? What happened? How could he steal the power of my people’s thoughts? I had clearly driven him out of the dream.
For example, many people still retained the coastal regions’ worship of Mazu, Wong Tai Sin, Maitreya, and Lord Guan. Lion dances at grand opening ceremonies were equally widespread.
In other words, if one wanted to compete with the King of Fighting, it was not enough to ensure that one’s work was independent and complete. One also needed a mature color palette to establish a cohesive overall style.
On one occasion, Ye Tian encountered several practitioners of the Dao who tried to bully him, but Ye Tian beat them until they fled in disarray, terrified and humiliated.
A faint flush had already appeared on Zixin’s face from drinking. At his words, her star-bright eyes gazed deeply into Yun Qihan’s dark, profound eyes.
“Ye Zixin? You—you’re here? When did you arrive?” Zhang Mingzhu was startled at first, then demanded harshly.
“Then would you like me to explain to him why he was punished yesterday?” Yun Qihan’s ink-jade pupils grew even deeper.
“On Dieshui Street, five streets away from here.” Hanshao was quite familiar with the conditions within this part of the city.
He had never dreamed that this inscrutable man actually possessed a genuine Spirit Jade of Strengthening.
Green Luo exerted all her strength, trying to overturn the table, but it did not move an inch. She pushed even harder, yet the table remained completely motionless.
After all, if Li Tianyang was merely an impressive exterior with nothing beneath it, then all the effort the Mo Clan had expended this time would have been entirely wasted.
He was still muttering inwardly, I have no idea whether this bowl of stuff is useful. I risked trying it, and he actually intends to let someone else share it as well? Still, since he is taking it so seriously and is willing to let his friends use it, this Beauty Pill probably cannot be harmful.
