Volume 1, Chapter 30: Do You Really Think You Can Walk Away Unscathed Today?
The vicious protagonist Chu Bai despised idiots who beat around the bush; having finally encountered one, he was determined to express his feelings immediately.
As soon as the words left his lips, Zhong Qing noticed Yin Jie’s eyes brighten, as if he had been waiting for this moment for a very long time.
No one would remember him, nor would anyone miss him. As a Prime God, once he vanished, everything about him would be erased.
Xia Zhiyao returned to the bar, drained her glass of milk in one gulp, washed it, and placed it back in its original spot.
Since the conflict did not involve them, Qin Chuan pulled Lin Yue aside to watch quietly.
Jin Miao was drenched in sweat, feeling as though he were about to be nagged to death. He spent two minutes steeling his nerves before closing his eyes, prepared to face his fate.
Most importantly, it finally looked like a proper palace; the Chi family’s residence had been more garish and colorful than a children’s playground.
Just as Ji Qingzhou had said, although they knew there was demonic energy within Liu Furuo’s body, it remained impossible to capture.
On the forums, countless players discussed and speculated about the true effects of the nine golden talents. Aside from the Ascension discussion board, which was somewhat quiet, the other eight remained bustling with activity.
With his strength surging, he was certain the Beast Demon King suspected he had encountered a miracle on the third floor—and there was only one miracle on the third floor: the legendary living entity.
Su Yue let him be, lazily curling up in his arms to enjoy the pampering. In truth, she was simply exhausted, though she still had the strength to dress herself.
“You’re here?” Zhang Han, who had been lying on the ground in a languid stupor, sat up with a start at the sound of that voice.

Aiqi Li, however, dared not do the same. Gold was being absorbed everywhere in the market, yet the price had not climbed to a very high level—that was the result of Aiqi Li’s constant efforts. If he were to let go of the gold price now and dump his supply, it would inevitably lead to heavy losses.
For instance, the idea of entrusting one’s back to someone else or relying on others to secure a victory had never crossed Chu Yun’s mind. His thinking was fixed solely on what he himself had to do to lead the team to victory.
Think about it: when the regular army of the Wei State marched out in formation, clad in armor and helmets, only to find their own fathers and brothers among the opposing peasant rebels, how could they possibly fight? And how could such a war be won?
The crowd recognized the troop behind Lin Xiao at a glance; the Black Guard was so famous that there was no one in the Great Xing Kingdom who did not know them.
Due to the climate, the Beast Kingdom had developed exceptionally rapidly, becoming a powerful nation second only to the three great empires. It was a country composed entirely of beast-kin, though it had been prevented from becoming the fourth great empire on the continent by the combined pressure of the three major powers.
Seeing the scene, Monkey and the others waited a while before using their resurrections to climb up from the ground, just to ensure the boss wasn't faking his death. When Monkey saw the massive corpse of the boss lying there, his spirits were immediately lifted.
Over ten thousand NPC soldiers mobilized just to capture a single player under level 30—one could only say that Ian’s father was truly formidable.
Lu Shaoqi quickly had the Falcon revert to its hovering vehicle form and activated the heating system so Lin Yurou and Chen Manman could climb inside.
“Hello, you must be Agent Stitson, right?” The man in the black suit waiting at the terminal was the first to extend his hand.
A flock of gulls and herons took flight, their wings flapping as they soared toward the horizon. A graceful melody drifted from the lotus pond, carried away by the breeze until it faded into the depths of the ink-wash mountains in the distance.
With a splash, Li Yihang fell into the river and vanished instantly. Gao Deng watched for a moment, let out a hearty laugh, and then turned to see two beautiful young women collapsed on the deck, weeping bitterly. He couldn't resist walking over to tease them.
As soon as he stepped off the plane, he keenly sensed countless gazes covertly monitoring him from all sides.

Zhao Yuanyuan had been gripped by immense fear the moment she saw Li Yihang, and she immediately abandoned Young Master Huang to flee. Feng Yuheng, not knowing who the two people who had come downstairs were, saw Zhao Yuanyuan running and chased after her without a second thought.
This record was simply too unsightly; it was truly damaging to her glorious image. Susu’s face was as sour as it could possibly be.
The island nation was a magical place. In their eyes, the Emperor was sacred and inviolable. The war had been launched in the name of the Emperor; he was their highest spiritual leader and their faith.
The United States was Damien’s homeland. The reason Chen Zheng handed the American affairs to him was precisely because of this identity—in Chen Zheng’s view, Damien would handle his own country with the gentlest possible touch, and Chen Zheng did not want to burn bridges with this superpower too early.
However, thinking about it this way, one could finally understand just how terrifying An Changqiu’s strength truly was.
The class monitor, Shen Lingqing, smiled warmly. Once most of the students had left, she took the initiative to walk over to Qi Ran.
In a soul state, one possesses no offensive capabilities unless this world allows for killing simply by glaring at someone.
Let not the spring heart bloom with the flowers; every inch of lovesickness is an inch of ash. In the next life, do not be a prisoner of passion; there is no place in the world to harbor such longing.
Despite being a peerless beauty of striking radiance, there was something about her right now that inexplicably exuded a sense of chilling gloom.
