49 Youthful Ambition
Out of the corner of her eye, Shi Yufei suddenly caught sight of a military vehicle parked on the rear left. She turned her head to look and saw several special forces soldiers getting out of the car, running forward in an orderly fashion.
As the host disciples of Mount Shu, do not make excuses to stir up trouble or speak nonsense, lest you violate the rules of our sect. All participating disciples who pass the preliminary round are strictly forbidden from taking the stage to spar on their own authority; they must first obtain the approval of the elders of their respective houses.
Lord Han had long since had a private hospital built within the estate out of concern for her heart condition, yet these were things she had never paid attention to.
The massive roar of the engines left Jon extremely agitated. He could even see terrified faces emerging upon the surface armor of the airship, which was covered in red patterns.
Lowering his gaze abruptly, he stared deeply into her tearful eyes. His large hand slid over her warm skin, feeling her presence, wanting to confirm whether she had truly returned to his side.
"What are you doing?" The moment Yun Ci was placed on the bed, she sprang up fiercely and wrapped her arms once more around his waist.
"Is the second task also slaying a dragon?" Suo Luo held his head, finding it hard to believe.
The red carpet stretched out for a long distance, flanked by flower baskets on both sides. Guests dressed in gorgeous attire walked along it; anyone unaware might have mistaken it for a group of celebrities walking a red carpet.
For the entire night, Lu Chengfeng scraped his own nasal bridge red until he finally thought of a method. That was to rely solely on the protective barrier formed by his own pure-yang vital energy to enclose the obsession within it, thereby diving together with it. Doing so undoubtedly increased the difficulty of the dive, yet it was the only viable method at present.
"Mmm-mm!" Chun Xi wanted to scold him, but with her mouth covered she could not speak, and she glared at him angrily at once.
In contrast to their composure, the hand resting on their shoulders grew very restless, suddenly pulling back as its owner stumbled backward.

Scorpion Dish decided to amp things up with some harsh measures. With a metallic "clank" of his giant pincers, he gave the backside of the wolf spider a sharp pinch. A spray of pale yellow blood splattered out, yet the opponent remained completely motionless. At this, everyone was dumbfounded.
The Ice Rainbow Sword came flying in a thrust, but the giant salamander monster swung its shovel and struck, smashing the Ice Rainbow Sword straight down into the ground with a loud "bang." Meng Xiongfei's fireball came flying over, and with a sweeping wave of its massive shovel, the monster batted the fireball away until it was extinguished. Then, fixing its gaze on Meng Xiongfei, it rode the mist straight toward him.
Some people even managed to emerge alive, only to find that they were already dead. What came out was merely a husk, while their true souls remained forever trapped within the Devil Soul Grotto, unable to leave.
Gao Jun brandished his saber and strode out of the post station straight toward the prefectural governor's mansion. From Xue Lian's hesitant expression and Gao Bai's words, he had caught a whiff of something. Li Daojue and the second madam traveling together to Langzhou—one could easily guess how much anxiety this matter had generated in Madam Wang's heart, and it was all the more logical that she was eager to find another backing for herself.
Meng Xiongfei dodged repeatedly, retreating from the air down to the ground, weaving and turning around trees and rocks, yet he still could not shake off the pursuit. Seeing that the giant net was about to catch up, he hurriedly triggered a thought, and his entire body burst into blazing red flames with a roar.
Ye Qinghan shook his head and walked up to the mummified corpse of the man from the Gui clan. Purple light flickered in his palm as he unleashed a burst of energy, and the dried corpse was instantly blasted into shattered residue.
Three days later, Ye Tian led his personal guards along with Mo Long and charged forward, disappearing into the distance.
Yet facing such a situation, Li Yi was truly caught in a dilemma. Given his identity, if it weren't an absolute last resort, Li Yi truly did not wish to expose himself. But if he did not speak out at this juncture, it would simply be impossible to win Wu Xuan's support.
E Cailing gave a cold humph and turned her head away, all the while vigorously rubbing her right cheek. Li Yaorao's frantic strike with her club had caused her entire right cheek to swell up.
The guardian of the path let out a roar akin to that of a beast, and the sound waves rippled outward like concentric circles.
Not long after Gu Yuanyu left, Lin Yiyi arrived as well. Yi Sangsang could not help but wonder: did she really look that unreliable?

In the distance, at the end of the street, several motorcycles flashing police lights provided an escort to prevent traffic congestion.
A burst of radio frequencies and the terrifying sound of the wind made everyone in the mountaineering team perk up their ears.
She cast her gaze toward the red wedding candle quietly burning nearby, avoiding Su晏's eyes, her heart pounding fiercely.
Wasn't this stating the obvious? This hotel was a five-star establishment, and the only reason it could serve as a dining hall was because the big boss of Lanxu had given the word. A casual meal here easily cost five or six thousand yuan. They say people who look good get doused in pampering—Bai Fenghuang certainly enjoyed such dividends, though the shred of guilt in Qinghui's heart over killing her brother was also a crucial factor.
As he watched, Fang Cheng sprinkled immortal soil from the land temple's dimension. Upon Mount Daqing, the rustling sound of silkworms eating mulberry leaves suddenly arose, resembling a quiet spring rain nourishing all things without a sound.
Fang Cheng paid them no mind, nor did he care about the foul language spilling from their mouths, and walked out of the villa together with Zhang Yuqing and her younger brother.
"Hello, Attorney Yi! I am truly sorry, traffic on the road was jammed, so I am late." Xu Xiaolan's attire was identical to the last time, except that this time she wore a hat with a much wider brim to shield the wounds on her face.
