Chapter 25

"To the South City Gate!" Li Tan ignored the advice of his personal guard and issued the order with firm determination. The guard had no choice but to help him back into the carriage, and they set off toward the South City Gate.

"No, Auntie, you don't know; Eva's cooking is wonderful, no worse than the chefs at any restaurant." Chen Zui stuffed a cherry into his mouth and mumbled indistinctly.

I didn't know if my eyes were open or not; everything was pitch black, but the sound of weeping was unmistakable. He wasn't far from me, as if he were right in front of me—so close that I could feel the warmth of his breath.

As the three of them began to pursue the figures of Luo Can and Tang Qi ahead, silhouettes could be vaguely seen moving through the woods behind them. Upon noticing this, even Chen Dong finally began to show a hint of terror on his face.

So I was wrong. I knew it—Xia Haoyu's face is thicker than a city wall; how could he be moved by a single word from me? I quickly bypassed him and turned toward the sofa.

"Ladies, come out! Join me for revenge." Kid stood on the steps, looked up, and shouted.

"Sounds good, but if we mess up the execution, we're all dead!" Liv gulped, looking very nervous.

It was strange; he had been full of confidence about defeating Wu Murong, but for some reason, he felt a faint, unprecedented sense of uncertainty rising within him.

Just then, the One-Eyed Dragon suddenly moved. I was instantly blinded by a harsh light, followed immediately by three consecutive gunshots: "Bang! Bang! Bang!"

Suddenly, a cell phone rang. I discreetly pulled away from Xia Haoyu’s shoulder, only to see him glance at his phone, pause for two seconds, and turn away to answer the call.

Zhaohua’s poison was mild, for she wanted to force the location of the treasure out of her, while the poison from Wugui’s people was lethal, as they only wanted Lu Shi dead. They knew nothing of the treasure.

Faintly, sighs seemed to echo from the corners of the world, as if some pinnacle existence of myth had witnessed this scene and begun to sigh, overcome by an inexplicable and complex emotion.

After all, if he and Mi Bao'er wanted a comfortable future, they would have to rely on the mercy of Sheng Nanping and Zhou Mo. Besides, he couldn't keep his relationship with Zhou Mo in such a stalemate forever.

Naruto Mobile is one of Penguin's flagship products. I reckon many have seen Westerners cosplaying as Naruto or Sasuke; if played well, this game could be sold worldwide.

"Who knows? We'll just have to ask him properly later if he has any way to resolve his current situation," Cang Wunian replied in a low voice.

There were memories of his time in a coma, scenes of the apocalypse, glimpses of various monsters lurking in the shadows, and what might happen when encountering other survivors.

Her idea of love probably leaned toward the belief that "companionship is the longest confession of love." But if Tang Juexiao didn't take her seriously, everything she did would be in vain.

Xiao Yao wanted to tell her mother not to be so nervous; this winter felt better than the last. Although she couldn't run and jump for long periods, she didn't have to sit perfectly still either. Alas, her words carried no weight, and no one would believe her.

Seeing this, the head of the boat escort became extremely vigilant. The other members of the Cao Gang also grabbed their knives, glaring like tigers.

From the exhausted Ji Seok-jin to Kim Jong-kook, who tried to put up a fight even after being caught, neither could escape the duo's tacit cooperation, and their bracelets were ripped off directly.

If these two really clashed, regardless of the outcome, the pressure on this Yongchen Palace would be immense.

"It has already reached the pill-melting stage? Doesn't that mean it's already half successful?" someone asked in surprise.

He didn't want to spend a single day living in the countryside. If they forced him back, he would rather die than go.

At this moment, the four of them, all at the Nascent Soul stage, had unstable auras and were panting heavily. Blood was seeping from their bodies, and a murderous aura radiated from them. Behind the path the pink sedan flew along, faint, strange howls could be heard.

Looking at the night-luminescent pearl the size of a fist, even Xue'er, who usually treated wealth like dirt, was incredibly happy.

In addition, Gongzhi Youli and Gongzhi Wufang of the Gongzhi family, and Gongyu Qiguang and Gongyu Polu of the Gongyu family were all young masters who had reached the high stage of the Inner Realm at a tender age—a rare feat indeed.

He gave Yun Fei another meaningful look, trying to figure out what this young ascetic was thinking. How could he be so indifferent to supreme imperial power, yet demand that Sakuragi Hanamichi and the others remain loyal?

Seeing this, Yang Jun thought this guy was quite clever; he knew to put a table between them to gain reaction time if Yang Jun made a move.

As he spoke, he noticed that everyone's expressions and gazes had become strange. He froze for a moment, then realized what was happening, and his old face flushed red.

Old Ding thought Li Yang was teasing him, but after asking a few professional questions he didn't believe Li Yang could answer, Li Yang’s fluent responses left him with no room to complain.

The next day, when the students arrived at the classroom early, they were stunned to find two basins of water already prepared on the teacher's desk. They were amazed, having no idea what the water was for.

He opened the door to find that the room, previously full of babies, had become a ruin. As the three continued forward, several black-clad figures holding weapons rushed into the room. Their movements were strange, and upon closer inspection, they realized they were actually floating.

The person beside him felt a bit ashamed, but he didn't say much; Tan Yanran had always been eccentric, and he was long used to it.

The room was furnished simply, with only one table and two chairs. Yan Ming sat in one, while the young man of unknown name sat opposite him across the table.

"A pity, but not entirely..." Having gone through the previous ordeal, Yan Ming was moving quickly to avoid being hunted down again. The giant plant had seized the opportunity to conquer several stone palaces, becoming even more powerful, though the impurities within its body were accumulating all the while.

After the opponent banned Twisted Fate, he vaguely guessed how they intended to deal with him. Numerous conjectures flashed through his mind, and he could not help but curl his lips into a faint smile.
