Liu Surong felt as if she were dreaming, dazed and suddenly becoming the owner of a new company. Adriano unleashed two consecutive powerful shots, both piercing the goal guarded by Hilderbrand, leaving the genius goalkeeper, who had not conceded a goal all season, somewhat frustrated. Yet, even as just a technical director, he was immensely proud. At his age, reaching such heights was nothing short of bringing honor to his family.

But the problem was that Mi Lele, along with the five children wanting to leave, had no blood ties to the Cheng family and could be withdrawn. The twins, however, were his own grandchildren surnamed Cheng; there was simply no reason to remove them.

Though Tianxing was the largest in the industry, during this downturn phase, when others forcibly entered with capital, what could he do?

With a height of one meter and a powerful leap, Tang Wu became the highest point in the area contesting for this header.

Before Zheng Jianguo saw the related report, he never imagined a house could be blown away by a hurricane. After all, in his previous life in Qisheng, encountering typhoons was rare, and even when they did occur, houses being blown down was unheard of. Only after coming to America in this life did he realize that the houses here were made of wood.

Seeing his goal achieved, Zheng Jianguo quickened his pace without stopping. His previously clenched right hand now opened, the second knuckle of his slightly curled fingers stiffened as he struck He Dana’s lips. With a cry, He Dana fell backward to the ground, dropping his stick and covering his mouth with both hands, curling up in pain.

A chilling aura tightly suppressed them, first making breathing difficult, then hindering movement. What was this? The power of the world itself?

If only he could one day comprehend the power of the domain, his combat strength would likely skyrocket again.

Beside him, Yang Xin was also stunned. Although she had fallen asleep yesterday, she clearly remembered that when she woke up, her clothes were untouched. Li Chen’s sudden words caught her completely off guard.

At that moment, a taxi approached from afar, clearly with a passenger in the back seat. I silently resolved that such a vehicle was safer than an empty one. Raising both hands eagerly to hail it, the taxi braked sharply and stopped beside me.

Li Qiang wore a smile that was anything but kind or amiable. With a wave of his hand, two sergeants handed over two large military backpacks to Yan Poyue and Xiao Yunjie. Both felt the weight immediately—heaven only knew what was inside, but it was unbearably heavy.

The four demon cultivators, seeing the situation worsening and attempting to escape, were tightly entangled by their opponents. In desperation, they decided to fight to the death, intending mutual destruction.

Ai Qianxue quickly opened a folder and scanned its contents. The more she read, the wider her beautiful eyes grew in astonishment.

Looking at the deformed blood puppet corpse battered by everyone, Chu Biao’s expression darkened with cold fury as he muttered under his breath. If Li Chen hadn’t dispatched a blood puppet earlier, they would have paid a heavy price this time.

It was not just Li Chen’s strength but also his calmness and wisdom displayed during the Broken Maze Forest that earned their respect.

Wanderer Mandy launched a backstab, but his leap was insufficient. The bone dagger only pierced the mountain monster’s waist, merely stabbing through a freshly skinned leather skirt.

I shuddered suddenly, realizing that if I could think of this, the Old Blind Man surely could as well. At this moment, he might already have devised many countermeasures. Since I met him, except for today’s encounter with Shen Ganchen, he had never lost.

Hua Fenglan nodded. The emperor, apologetic, took her hand gently. “I have neglected you these past few days.”

Madam Chai seemed to have an insatiable appetite. Having just finished dinner, when the snacks arrived, she couldn’t resist eating several more pieces.

“Auntie Li, stand up and speak.” Lady Liu, seeing Auntie Li kneeling, felt a pang of sympathy. Auntie Li had been prepared as a concubine for Liu Yuanjiu, but he was utterly indifferent to her, devoted instead to another. She was then taken as a concubine by the lascivious eldest son.

Thus, when Prince Fu loudly spoke those words, and Xuan Ye entered to pay respects, she glanced at the solemn-faced lord on the throne and was momentarily stunned, forgetting to lower her gaze as etiquette required.

Guarding to the right of the eldest maid was Zhong Zijian; on the right stood Jiang Ming, captain of Lord Qiao's bodyguards. Among the five, they were the two strongest, while the other three were a tier below.

Wuyou halted mid-step, tilting his head to look at her. After a moment’s thought, he ran to the table and grabbed two pieces of pastry with each hand, then smiled contentedly.

Then, leaning in, he kissed her lips. Knowing what was to come next, Hua Fenglan grew flustered as before. “Your Majesty… I… I’m feeling unwell.”

After Shen Yuechen finished tidying up, the elder lady sent someone over to invite her to join the early meal.

December 9th, Jing City, located in the northeast of Chuyi Kingdom, night fell with bitter cold and biting wind.

Gangmen Dongchuan knew very well that borrowed money for the casino was not free; he had to pay exorbitant interest.

Damn it! Hearing Liu Zhize’s address, Guan Ping and Zhang Bao almost spat blood. Zhang Fei was their ancestor’s brother, yet he was being called “Brother Fei”? What did that make them?

Right at the entrance to the residential area was a transverse path, and they immediately parted ways, heading in opposite directions.

“Respectfully invite Li Xuantian, the Sword Master requests your presence!” The voice from the Sword Forest startled Feng Wuyue.
