She had waited long for this moment. Finally, with someone supporting her, she was determined to fight harder. She would never admit defeat. Even if Han Jinfeng refused to marry her, she could still gain something she deemed worthy by other means.
A demon’s low wail echoed behind them. Ma Yuan shuddered and glanced back just as a flash of light surged toward him.
This terrified Madam Niu immediately. “What’s going on? Why did it suddenly disappear?” She had people replay the surveillance footage several times, but no ghostly traces could be found. Regardless, it was now clear the item had reached Jiang Liming’s hands.
The man was slender, dressed in a white casual outfit, a black-and-white scarf wrapped stylishly around his neck.
Qianjie took out a corner of the life card belonging to Tina and the others. This was the best pointer, even more convenient than the Eternal Pointer.
Kaka rolled up his tattered pants leg and said, “Well, it’s mostly healed but not completely. This won’t do—we have to be fully recovered!” Insisting, Kaka made You Xiao lie flat on the ground and placed his hands on You Xiao’s ankles. After a brief examination, he began treatment.
Nearby, Lamia, seeing Xiao Ming strike her aunt, was about to retaliate but was stopped just in time by Leticia.
Even the Four Emperors like Whitebeard didn’t want Qianjie to proceed, as they held vast territories with countless civilians.
A middle-aged man in coarse black clothing, sleeves rolled up, sat under the eaves enjoying his lunch.

In the evening, Yihua Palace received two generous gifts, sent respectively by Xiao Lu and Consort Chen, both clearly intended for Xiao Xuan.
Seeing Zhou Miaoling’s enchanting smile, Lin Shaochong was momentarily stunned, his heart aflame.
“I have slept beneath this vast sea for a thousand years; no one dares disturb me.” The Black Tortoise Holy Emperor clearly disliked being roused from his slumber.
Within the five-dimensional space, Chen Daoming gazed at one familiar scene after another, crying out in sorrow and helplessness.
Xiuxiang decided to return to the main story, grateful that she hadn’t yet wandered into an utterly unreachable place. Now aware of her actions, it proved her confusion hadn’t yet reached its limit—a limit no one truly knew.
Normally, activating the demon’s roulette requires five Dan Coins of the same level; having one extra Dan Coin means the roulette’s reward includes an item beyond the white wheel’s usual value.

Although incomplete now without the Yin-Yang and Myriad Spirits Marks and unable to practice the advanced techniques, their strong quality suited perfectly the ‘Emperor Seal Technique.’
“If you’re a specialist in this field, then I definitely need your help,” Dong Qingchen said, having just thought of a project that required such expertise.
Qiqi was caught off guard and kissed again by Huayan. Though she had previously considered herself mentally strong, being passively ‘taken by storm’ like this was a first.
Rongcang Bielek leapt forward and kicked Zhao Er. Staggering a few steps, Zhao Er was caught again as Rongcang shouted, “Stop!” and swung his blade toward Zhao Er’s head. The sharp edge would have severed Zhao Er’s head instantly.

“Millie’s here?! Nine-Tailed Fox, you really are conspiring with them!” The pan-faced man resembling Pan An spoke nervously.
On the fourth day of the Ming army’s siege, the massive cannons finally arrived. Hong Chengchou in the city nearly fainted at the sight of such huge artillery—it turned out the Ming army had been waiting to deploy these all along.
Mu Jingsheng had not forgotten how Mu Jingqian caused endless trouble when first sent to Country S. To be lenient now would be beyond foolish.
