Volume 1, Chapter 42: Opportunity or Test

The more Yan Li thought about it, the more he felt he shouldn't have left in the first place. Even if he had just hidden somewhere nearby, he at least could have seen what happened. He slapped his head in frustration, feeling utterly vexed.

In an instant, Hui looked at the monster in utter dismay, finding it increasingly hard to believe his own eyes.

With that, the Ghost Sha brothers stepped forward toward Xu Shiyun one step at a time like fierce ghosts, a terrifying red light gleaming in their eyes as they prepared to unleash their most ferocious attack at any moment.

He tied cloth strips to the branches of every searched path to mark his way. Though the method was crude, it was effective. However, Qi Yu's arrival brought him a profound sense of urgency. He had originally planned to thoroughly enjoy the power that came with being the leader, but he no longer had the time for that.

"Ding," Ding Jingxi said coldly. "Just call me Ding." He spoke first because he simply couldn't stand Ao Xingchu's terrible taste in giving him nicknames.

If he had ever dared to ask Ao Xingchu for such a piece of Source, Ao Xingchu would likely have been so enraged as to vomit blood on the spot.

"Bear Orange, what kind of... person are you?" the old man murmured, looking at Bear Orange with something more in his gaze.

"Huh? Weren't you able to reach the highest rank with a completely undefeated record? Logically speaking, your strength shouldn't be too far off from his?" Cheng Shiyu asked curiously.

Tang Ling looked at Zhang Zhi, then at Wang Tian, and couldn't help feeling amused inside. The Zhang Zhi before her was truly no match for Wang Tian.

This was one of the three dukes of the Moxis family, and also a direct descendant of a Moxis family prince from three hundred years ago.

The Lantern Festival has a long-standing tradition of appreciating decorative lanterns and guessing lantern riddles, which is why every year's imperial banquet features such a segment.

As for Li Jing's family of three, everyone present didn't even spare them a glance, as if they did not exist at all.

Once her makeup was complete, Noble Consort Su's beautiful eyes narrowed slightly, her long eyelashes perfectly concealing the emotions within those brilliant pupils.

Halfway through the flight, most people were drifting between wakefulness and sleep, with an occasional restless passenger walking down the aisle.

Liu Dong knew it was impossible to directly lock horns with the Evil Medical Alliance right now, but he could stir up trouble behind the scenes.

The force of that sword-viper was immense; no one could withstand its charge as it slammed into them. Mo Yiyue pushed her true qi to the absolute limit in a desperate bid to counter it, only to be blasted backward, a mouthful of blood spewing from her mouth.

This time, he brought me a fine delicacy—the underworld's specially brewed Meng Po soup. It is said that once one drinks Meng Po's soup, all past memories vanish into nothingness. Not only will I forget him, but I will also forget who I am, where I came from, and where I am going.

Kong Yixian assumed he would stay for a meal and was just about to open her mouth to persuade him otherwise when Chang Yi had already walked over to the foyer.

The Qi Group had always walked the straight and narrow path with an upright posture; a clean conscience fears no false accusations, and they had no fear of anyone coming to pick a fight.

The old man told me that someone had recommended a certain health-care apparatus to these doctors, priced at two thousand eight hundred each. For every pair sold, there was a two-hundred-yuan commission, and everyone else had already taken theirs.

This was simply because all the things Bai Tang mentioned related to her were true—and they were matters she thought she had hidden away very well.

Furthermore, he knew that unpredictable though David's temperament and character might be, in a situation where the military forces were so vastly disproportionate, Concubine Qiao was a very useful pawn and would not be killed casually. Concubine Qiao's life was not in immediate danger.

Lu Yaoyuan cooperated by executing the first form. Yizhang carefully analyzed her movements and still shook her head.

When she first met Lu Chen, in order to conquer her target and break through the CEO's "do not approach" defense line, she had toned down this particular personality trait of the original host.

"Not only do you have to apologize to Xu Mengyao in front of all the teachers and students in the school, but you also have to compensate Xu Mengyao with fifty thousand yuan for emotional distress," Zhou Xumeng stated her conditions.

Hearing the word "General" and looking at the panicked expressions of the people outside the window, Concubine Qiao's heart suddenly leaped into her throat. Could something have happened to Zhou Linyao?

The moment this object appeared, everyone turned pale with despair. Everyone present knew that not only were they themselves doomed, but their families would also be implicated and completely wiped out.

Sui Xin was very grateful to Luo Xi for the information. Although those things she mentioned truly lacked any evidence to investigate or utilize, at least Sui Xin now knew that Xu Mengyao didn't like cats or dogs.

Sui Xin felt a covert sense of joy that Sui Yi's attention had finally been diverted and she was no longer dwelling on what she had done.

Wu Bin nodded, suddenly recalling that Newton had actually navigated official circles quite successfully in his middle age, and had even made successive major breakthroughs in socio-economics. That was how he managed to point and strike wherever he wished; just burying one's head in research alone could never yield such massive power.

She also heard the two people trying to kill her and setting up the array call each other "Lu Changsu" and "Mu Qianyu".

The Danyang Cauldron is a Nascent Soul-tier magical treasure after all. If you can successfully refine it, you can unleash late-stage Xiantian strength while still in the Xiantian realm. In the future, when you break through to the Star Realm, you will even be able to unleash the lethality of the Star River Realm.

At this point, he had no choice but to rescue him. The three of them had been together for so long and could already be considered friends, so he wouldn't just leave him to his fate.

This was a square, windowless chamber. Unexpectedly, it was kept extremely tidy, with all sorts of items classified and stored on custom-built shelves, alongside a considerable reserve of food rations.
