Chen Hao, however, seemed to shine in every respect. Even a man like him, who had lived through most of his life, could not help feeling astonished.

Chen Hao had even managed to create a graphene battery that surpassed the times. As for ordinary mobile-phone components, they were hardly worth mentioning!

Forget the Tianshan snow lotus. If they stayed here any longer, they would probably starve to death!

The weather was alternately warm and cold, while the air was exceptionally fresh. Across the empty wetland road, two horses came racing toward them. As they drew closer, it became clear that the riders were Su Wu and Meiga, returning on horseback after treating a shepherd.

Although Huaguo was safe, it was not entirely free of villains. These goods were worth a fortune and would certainly attract the covetous eyes of thieves, master robbers, and desperate bandits. Ling Feng therefore dared not let his guard down.

The undersea otherworld was vast and boundless. The strange radiance at its center entered the vortex at the bottom of the lake and fled into that other realm. The entire surface of the lake gradually recovered. Though great waves rose once more, the waters slowly returned to calm. Of all the islands in Dongting Lake, only the level-forty bear demon from the Xiangyin Fisheries Administration survived. Everyone else had perished.

Song Yuhan still wore her usual frosty expression. When she saw Ye Wudao enter, she merely raised her head and glanced at him. She neither smiled nor acknowledged him, only wondering inwardly why the man had come looking for her.

Guo Kui looked up at Lord Zichen, who was holding a teacup with perfect composure, and said with a bitter smile.

Zhang Ming'an lived on the seventh floor of the Royal Hospital. It was a VIP ward, and each room was enormous, yet contained only two beds—one for the patient and one for an attendant. In densely populated Xianggang, where medical resources were in such short supply, the extravagance was self-evident.

If possible, Locke would have liked to leave behind a biography of himself in his home plane. Immortality through the ages seemed too distant a dream, but the thought of having trillions upon trillions of fellow humans remember him was enough to thrill Locke.

Yanyun City felt his blood begin to boil. At last, he was about to enter a real battlefield. The prospect excited him even more than the Soldier Inscription Stele had.

In an instant, hundreds of automatic rifles opened fire on the windows of the office building. At the same time, Zero, inside the building, raised a rifle and fired at the humans below.

“Hahaha! It’s all right, it’s all right. You don’t need to be so formal with me! How are you feeling? Can you train?” As he spoke, Yang Hao seized Li Chun’s wrist. A mighty surge of inner force rushed directly into Li Chun’s body, and in an instant Yang Hao understood nearly everything about his condition.

Liu Rusong retreated step by step, his voice trembling. “As long as you spare me, I’ll agree to any condition. You should know how powerful the Liu family is in the Northeast.”

All the Saints had been dispersed, but he had not forgotten the importance of the Demon God Hall. He had still assigned twelve Saints to guard it. Yet, unexpectedly, something had gone wrong all the same.

“Captain Xiyou, let’s call in a position. You’ve already done enough,” said the man walking at the front.

“My elder brother and I are both secluded cultivators, and we have little contact with outsiders. Third Brother, you often travel the martial world—do you know anyone of exceptional strength?” Su Mu walked to the table and sat down gently, casting Lin Yu an inquiring look.

“If you had not come begging me, I truly would have destroyed this so-called Emei Sect!” A frightening gleam flashed through Su Mu’s eyes.

“Shield bearers, form the forward shield line! Move together!” Sanshu shouted to the shield unit behind him.

Yet Heaven did not heed their wishes. The more anxious Song Yizhou became, the more mistakes he made in his confusion. He tripped over something, fell hard, and rolled twice across the ground.

“S-H-I-T!” Zhou Mo cursed. A mass of fury suddenly swelled within his chest. If he could have pulled that anger out, he would have set all of Los Angeles ablaze and burned Ted to death if the man was still hiding somewhere in the city.

“That…” Wang Zhaoxing had barely spoken the word when he was interrupted by a report from the doorway.

Zhang Cheng had been defeated utterly. In the end, he could only lower his head and nod submissively, accepting every demand. Fortunately, Wen Xin eventually helped him out of the predicament.

Seeing Lin Tao defeat the powerful enemy first, Qingdi’s expression grew even uglier. Its poisonous mist lasted a long time, covered a wide area, and inflicted tremendous damage, making it a strong counter to Zhuying. However, Zhuying had to enter the area of effect voluntarily before the mist could display its full power.

First, they would implement the policy in Hongnong Commandery for one or two years, measuring all the land that needed to be measured and registering everyone who needed to be registered. During that process, they would work out a reliable method before extending it throughout the nation.

In that brief moment of daze, she unexpectedly grew addicted to the warmth of his lips, the scorching embrace of his arms, the minty scent of his breath—so sensual despite its raggedness—and his domineering breathing.

As for Kunlun, part of it lay along the corridor, while another part remained in our world. At its center stood the gateway from our world to infinity. If anyone wished to leave this world, they first had to find Kunlun.

Qin Wan had guessed that her father would say this. She could not tell whether she felt disappointed or relieved. Although she had long known that her father lacked sufficient political wisdom, seeing such a situation unfold still left her emotions tangled and complex.

Chen Mo’s pupils contracted, and his heart filled with alarm. That ugly creature was Duan Yanqing! To think he could force a five-foot-long stream of One Yang Finger force from an iron staff—the faint sounds of it tearing through the air revealed the enormous power behind the attack.

This was a rare and favorable sign. At the very least, it showed that part of the medicinal power of the Sect-Breaking Pill had already been transformed into his own strength. The King-King rank had surpassed its peak condition, and he was now only one step away from breaking through the King-King rank and advancing to the sixth level of cultivation—the Grandmaster stage of the Sect Path realm.

The man was so handsome, with such an otherworldly air, that she would have been perfectly willing to become his concubine.

A smile curved the corners of Chunyu Yue’s lips. Carrying the case in one hand and taking her arm with the other, he strolled leisurely beneath the moonlight toward home.

Zhao Su somewhat reproached herself for having slept so late. She was certain that the old madam and everyone in the General’s Residence would now regard her as arrogant, haughty, and indolent.

“Haha… You’re still not used to this place, are you? It doesn’t matter. We’re about to go somewhere very special…” Fang Yuan said, already leaping onto the back of the flying lion-tiger beast.

“Uncle, the company only gave me a few days off. I still have to go home to visit my elders and spend the New Year with my parents. Cui Tong and I have plenty of time ahead of us. We’ll come back to visit you and Auntie later,” Cheng Qing said anxiously.

Hundreds of underworld constables had their souls scattered on the spot. The City God’s divine body was shattered as well, transforming into the shape of a translucent ghost.

Tang Su ignored him. Her eyes remained fixed on the screen as she watched the movie intently, sometimes so absorbed that she even forgot to eat her popcorn.
