“Mr. Wang, I’m not afraid you’ll call my bluff—one million,” Boss Cao said with a smile, glancing at his cards.
Eger Island, located on the edge of the Shark Sea region, lay just dozens of miles from the battlefield. It was an uninhabited, desolate island, its jagged rocks and dense forests resembling a mountainous woodland more than a mere isle.
Each tester had to first approach the four examiners for verification before beginning their assessment.
Since it was already known that Byun Baekhyun was deceiving her, it was necessary to know the content of the deception. Understanding it might not change anything fundamentally—it was just a lie told to her, after all.
“We still need to develop an efficient method to break through this turtle shell,” Yuan Haochen continued.
Liu Rui remained silent, his face puzzled. He seemed unsure whether Li Yan’s decision was right or wrong, but he sensed something off in the situation.
“Then why did you suddenly want to come to Korea? With so much going on in Japan, you wouldn’t just come here for no reason, right?” Xia Zhe asked with amusement.
As Liang Hao’s voice fell, everyone on the crew erupted in cheers. This was a production they had all worked hard to complete, and now that it was finally done, there was no reason not to be joyful.
A special love for a special you, my loneliness cannot escape your eyes. A special love for a special you, you make me doubt myself more and more.
Li Yan noticed Wu Hao pull out a crumpled pack of Yellow Crane Tower cigarettes from his pocket, revealing only a single cigarette left inside.
Then, a comparison was made: the Shenzhou spacecraft that first carried humans into space measured 88.6 meters in length and weighed 7.84 tons.
On this mountain, there were only two snipers. Just as Haruna suspected, they had come to ambush and assassinate Soichiro Shikibuin.
At the core, humans are simply biological beings; the ultimate principle of biology is survival. Before survival, concepts like gentlemanly conduct are mere nonsense.
As the tablecloth was pulled away, a vast expanse of sky was revealed. At that moment, the rain ceased abruptly, darkness gave way to light, and the sky glittered with countless stars, growing even brighter. Yet above them hung a patch of inverted dark clouds, a dense darkness. They knew the clouds were gathering together.

“Come with me to the playground,” the old principal said to Li Yanyang after hanging up the phone. The three then followed him back to the field.
Originally, the heart in her throat had been pounding, but after confirming the matter, it suddenly skipped twice, then plummeted, shattering into pieces.
Gong Wuxie lifted his teacup, twirling the lid and the tea leaves floating on the surface, and asked lightly.
Without regard for his injuries, Yang Hao struck out with a palm at Lin Ke’er, knocking the sword embedded in his right chest away. Yet Lin Ke’er closed her eyes and did not resist Yang Hao’s attack, willing to endure the blow. With a “bang,” she was sent flying backward.
“Still want to challenge me?” Jiang Dongyu’s voice rang out, causing Yun Tianhe to furrow his brows.
“One day! Just today. If you’re still alive after today, I, Li Yanyang, will spare you!” Li Yanyang declared.
“No way. No matter what, our Southern Revolutionary Party’s strength is no weaker than the North’s—perhaps even stronger. Isn’t Yuan Shikai afraid of provoking widespread anger?” Wang Siliang exclaimed in surprise.
“Alright.” Jian Qianqian clicked her high heels as she walked in. Only after she entered did Qiao Yang step into the elevator.
Old Man Li was boiling with rage, wanting to argue with Dai Qiang, but was held back by those around him.
Jian Qianqian and Qiao Yang were startled simultaneously. Before Qiao Yang could react, Jian Qianqian, fiercely protective, could no longer hold back and instinctively pushed Luo Qi harshly.
After he spoke, several seconds passed. Just as he grew impatient, Xiuyue finally burst into laughter.
“These guys sure do know how to scheme!” Wang Jin sneered, calming his hot-tempered subordinate commanders.
Shui Han breathed greedily as if savoring every breath, her mood a mixture of excitement and relief… the feeling of returning home was truly wonderful.
“I summoned you not to hear excuses. Begin immediately. Don’t make me say it twice,” Gong Chenjian ordered coldly, allowing no room for dissent.

At that moment, Yun Zhi never imagined that one day, someone would tell her that Gong Chenjian had always been accommodating her, while she had been restraining him.
Qing Lu had warned Dai Rou’er more than once to stay away from He Fang, for He Fang was too mysterious and carried an aura that made even the ancient Eight Great Races uneasy.
Lactrus knew this device was called a time bomb. Sky King had demonstrated it personally: if operated correctly, the bomb would explode ten minutes after the operator left the tunnel.
The center formation was guarded, making it impossible for Siya and the others to break through. Their target was not the Hongguang Sect but Wu Jian within the center.
The battle was evenly contested, with neither side able to gain the upper hand. The loss of a single person would immediately reveal the tide of battle.
“Should I make the first move, or will you surrender obediently?” He Fang said calmly, without blushing or panting. The previous attacks had not been full force; his dark energy had been scarcely depleted.
She looked at him in surprise but understood the teasing hidden in his playful smile. Her cheeks flushed, yet her fingers lightly rested on his chest, the cold tips slowly warming against his warmth.
Wang Shuo swallowed hard, wondering what was going on. Was he planning to marshal his forces to wipe out He Family Village?
Could they really protect so many Golden Core cultivators with such a grand spectacle as the infant formation here?
Meng Qingya turned her head, took the pistol, removed the magazine to check the bullets, then “click”—chambered a round. Gratefully, she glanced at Yang Hao and nodded firmly.
The two elders radiated massive spheres of light, infused with astonishing spiritual power, colliding with the assault descending from the sky.
