38. Second Pass (Part One)

Just a moment ago, Bo Moning seemed to blush for no apparent reason, and Xia Qiu was certain she hadn't misread the situation. She glanced down at the neckline of her own undershirt, and her face instantly flushed red as well.

Su Qianci was left dizzy and breathless from the kiss. When Li Sicheng finally let her go, she slumped against his chest, gasping for air.

The moment the heroic and upright Gu Heng appeared, he caught the eyes of many young women. Sui Xi watched them all feigning shyness with a playful smile, and when she saw Guan Zhenxi blushing and casting surreptitious, bashful glances at Gu Heng, she nearly burst out laughing.

For Qiao Zijin, who had never tried pulling an all-nighter before, keeping watch was an agonizing experience.

If that brat could stand by and watch Zijin suffer today, she certainly wouldn’t care for her or provide for her in her old age.

As for her high school roommates, even if they had gotten along well and shared a genuine bond, Qiao Nan understood deep down that Tang Mengran and the others were close to her only because she was a good student who set a positive example.

If she hadn't misjudged, the insignia on the instructor's shoulder indicated that he was an officer in the military, not just some common foot soldier.

Sui Xi observed Lady Guan from the corner of her eye. Her complexion was rosier than yesterday, and she didn't seem as despondent. She let out a silent sigh; just like in her previous life, no matter what hurt her father caused, her mother always forgave him far too easily.

The teacher told them they could get up, walk around, have some tea and snacks, and then return to continue.

"Get lost! Get out!" A doctor hauled Rong Rui up, forcibly prying his hands apart, and shoved him out while kicking him along the way.

From the death notifications popping up from time to time, Lin Chi could tell that the tribal challenge on Mount Olympus had clearly begun, and players were already slaughtering one another.

"Oh, thank you for smoothing things over, shopkeeper. We’ve implicated you, and I am truly sorry. Big brother, perhaps we should leave tonight; I’m afraid we won’t be able to stay here anymore," Zhu Yingtai said.

He endured the excruciating pain, trying to pull his hand away from Hua Ying'er. But she only laughed wildly, her expression twisted as she stared at him, her eyes filled with madness and malice.

To sever heaven or to slay heaven, it all rests on a single thought. To kill a life or to destroy a heart, it happens in a single moment! I have spent over thirty years perfecting my unique "Heaven-Severing Style," which originated from a set of "Heaven-Slaying Blade Techniques."

Everyone looked at him with quiet solemnity, and Lian Yuncheng felt a warmth in his heart. He bowed to the senior sisters before him, and they returned the gesture. Looking at his kind-hearted sisters, Lian Yuncheng turned and departed with reluctance.

"A subject of the Great Han." The middle-aged man stood with his hands behind his back, eyes scanning the surroundings, looking perfectly righteous and justified.

After Wang Hao clarified his intentions, he didn't say much more. Since the target was within the system's requirements, he logically defeated Wu Xuan to claim his "first blood," adding twenty days to the system's duration.

He suddenly crouched, narrowly dodging a strike. He scrambled backward, hurriedly trying to stick the talisman back on, but the result was...

After Hua Mulian left, Hua Hu sat beside Wang Hao and, whether intentionally or not, brought up Hua Mulian.

The interior of Sword Immortal Abode was quite simple; aside from a few restrictive spells, it was filled with intersecting currents of sword qi.

Gu Duxing chose not to stay and fight Long Wu. Although Long Wu was not in the best state and was only holding on through a strange state of mind, Gu Duxing lacked confidence and chose to turn and leave.

Near the Purple Spirit Lake, many powerful figures soared into the air, reaching the vicinity of Jian Feiyang in an instant.

This place had existed for who knows how many years, and the skeleton’s strength in life had likely reached the third tier. The blade techniques it possessed were certainly not ordinary and held great research value.

Sheng Shaochen sat opposite the sky-blue curtains, looking at the two words on his phone, his lips curling upward as his well-defined fingers swiped across the screen.

They had arrived at the back mountain. The teacher had been called away unexpectedly, so he let Wen Lenan lead everyone to the back mountain for sketching. Everyone was quite obedient to their class monitor.

"There is some misunderstanding regarding this matter. Let me explain it to you slowly... *cough, cough*... since you are all here, why not come in for a cup of tea?" She invited them in, and Mother Gu nodded before walking inside.

Ten massive platforms stood underground, each covering a thousand square meters. Enhanced by special abilities, they had become incredibly durable; even a mid-third-tier expert couldn't guarantee they could destroy one in a single blow.

In terms of numbers, the Turks did not seem to have a guaranteed victory. Asulan had brought three or four hundred elite Turkic soldiers, while Han Shi'e had about a hundred veterans and nearly a thousand believers. However, the believers were not strong combatants, and their only chance was to capture Tuli Khan before the main Turkic force arrived.

Luo Wei saw Yan'er and wanted to vent his anger, but found he couldn't, so he glared furiously at Imperial Physician Chu.

In front of her were some exquisite snacks. The portions were small, but they made up for it with variety. Each piece looked delicate and smelled wonderful, making her mouth water just looking at them. She couldn't resist picking up a pastry and popping it into her mouth.

After all, Yuyangzi was the master of the Changsheng Hall, and his Taoist cultivation was extremely profound. Xiao Yicai was no match for him alone, so Li Xun, Yan Hong, Fashan, Lin Jingyu, and others joined forces to battle him together.

Shi Quan and Jin Yilang could both sense that the young man before them possessed surging vitality and immense power.

"You could be the emperor, and I could be the empress." As soon as Jia Yuanyuan said this, she realized she had made a mistake and immediately stopped herself, turning bright red with shame and regretting her words.

"I knew that Grand Witch Bai Lingge would always handle things reliably," Mu Ai said with a flattering smile, his handsome face glowing even brighter under the sun.

"Is silence your way of avoiding explanation? Do you mean you don't want to clarify things?" Mu Ai asked Dapnuo.

After a long while, that red, fleshy head poked out again. Seeing that Shi Quan didn't move, it continued to push out, finally revealing its true form.

Everything that had just happened was seen in full by Suolong, who was imprisoned in the neighboring cell, through a crack in the corner of the wall.

Finally, seeing that the major nations had all set out, the leaders of the Revolutionary Party, supported by wealthy patrons and the tacit approval of the military, forcibly passed a peace resolution. The Gauls had, at last, set out.

"What are you looking for here?" Suddenly, Mu Ai's gaze sharpened, examining Huan-Ting as if he could see through everything.

She thought that by doing this, the police wouldn't be able to find out who had thrown the trash, and thus wouldn't be able to trace it back to her, but she never expected to be caught in the end.
