Volume One, Chapter 85: Corpse Oil? Incantation?
“Oh, I see now!” Shen Fan suddenly wore an expression of realization.
“I’ve spent the most time living at home, so my vital energy has been weakened the most, and the disasters I’ve encountered are all fatal!”
His profession was unusual; he didn’t need to go to work like others.
Liu Lingshan’s belly grew larger with each passing day. To outsiders, she must have seemed blissful and expectant. But only Liu Lingshan herself knew things were far from as simple as they appeared. Watching her stomach swell day by day, Liu Lingshan felt her panic increasing.
Cui Feng shook his head, “I’m not trying to struggle. I just want to kill you.”
The rainbow-colored elk’s gaze turned cold. Immediately, it revealed a fierce grin, but before it could act, its smile froze on its face.
At the Nan Yan Kingdom’s relay station, news had just reached Ming Wang that the Emperor of Dàyōng had sent troops to guard outside the relay station of Wucheng Kingdom. Ming Wang was uneasy, unable to sit still.
“These Japanese intelligence agencies and pro-Japanese personnel are yours to handle. The German garrison will pretend not to know anything,” the Governor suggested.
Monkeys can't swim. Instinctively, it flailed its limbs, trying to grasp something, and Ping An, unfortunately, became its lifeline. First, it clung to her right leg, then her whole body. Its hide was as hard as stone; no matter how she punched or kicked, she couldn’t shake it off, and instead, the pain nearly made her breath scatter.
“Chirp-chirp!” Dong Zhanyun looked over and saw the shadow eagle finch’s body beginning to change, and its form sinking lower and lower. Dong Zhanyun, unable to hesitate, unleashed the Nine Dragons Eighteen Realms technique and flew forward to save the shadow eagle finch.
She glanced down at her feet, only then realizing that the two of them were standing atop the water, and as they walked, delicate ripples spread across the surface.
Hearing these words, Ping An smiled as well. Silver Feather always appeared amiable before her, but she hadn’t expected there was another side in front of the students.
Just now, relying on the vision of a Foundation-building cultivator, he barely caught Ning Chong’s silhouette, but could only defend with difficulty, unable to counterattack at all.
What worried her even more was that on her first visit to the human realm, she had already caused a death—and in broad daylight. The thought of what might happen next made the tears spinning in Yudie’s eyes impossible to restrain.
“No, it’s late, and Qingqing is pregnant; she needs plenty of rest.” With that, he ignored Nangong Hao’s astonished expression and left with Qiao Anqing.
Enraged, Quan Wangu roared, and even shouted out a move name so loudly that Ye Kun nearly fell to the ground.
Seeing the scoreboard at 1-1 and the timer reading 81 minutes, they realized they were only ahead for a single minute.
“Sound the gong, withdraw the troops; we’ll fight again tomorrow.” Gao Chi’s face was utterly indifferent, as though the dead men weren’t Yong’an’s soldiers, had nothing to do with him.
The group traveled in silence, crossing counties and prefectures, heading straight for Anjing City. Along the way, officials who were friendly with the Yan family and the Second Young Lord greeted them warmly, joyfully. Those who had enmity with the Kang family even made a point of visiting the disgraced Kang Ren Zhi; though they couldn’t do much to him, they didn’t miss the chance to disgust him with their words.
After scoring, Cassano glanced at Adriano beside him, then made a substitution gesture toward Yun Sheng on the sidelines.
Over there, Nan Guozhen had crossed the bridge safely, while the northern cavalry stood in a daze, hesitant to cross.
