Meanwhile, Bai Juling remained expressionless. After glancing at Number Six, she turned her head back to look at Number Nine sitting beside her.
"Snake Lord, with your profound mastery of arts and having lived for who knows how many years, you understand far more reasoning than I ever could. But tell me, does such reasoning actually hold any weight?" I twirled the stone knife between my fingers.
No matter how much one might complain inwardly, life still had to go on. He soon discovered that humanity was far from united in the midst of the apocalypse.
Tang Youyou felt a wave of deep emotion; Santa Claus truly existed in this world. It seemed she would have to dig out her long-cherished, long-stored stockings tonight.
Once he discovered this, he immediately went to the Meng family to demand justice. However, the Meng family casually pushed Uncle He forward to take the blame, and the matter was thus glossed over and left unsettled.
Unlike Deyunsha, which only opened its ticketing system two days before the performance, the New Wave Crosstalk troupe had put the tickets for all ten performances online quite early on.
Jessica removed her mask and gently shook her golden, shoulder-length short hair, revealing an exquisite face seven-tenths similar to Gwen's, yet even more pure and innocent, as she winked playfully at the two of them.
There was no performance today. After leaving the hospital, the old gentlemen returned to their respective homes, and others with matters to attend to left as well. The rest all headed to Tianqiao Theater.
Yet the strange thing was, why hadn't He Ku said anything while they were down in Clear Water Town, waiting until they were floating suspended in the air to speak up?
Judging by the posture of these two, they were practically missing only a handful of melon seeds to crack, accompanied by a few crates and cups of iced beer, after which their index of happiness would probably skyrocket straight up.
The two of them shouted in fury, yet they dared not contend with Li Xiao, and could only hand over the Emperor's Blood and Tears and the Supreme Art.
Every time he encountered a new fierce beast and communicated with it via WeChat, the beast would ask the same question. Having no alternative, Chen Jingyuan could only explain using his unique innate divine ability while demonstrating his goodwill.
"To the villa." His was a command—beyond question, something to be obeyed, an order that allowed for no resistance whatsoever.

Advancing a dozen miles to the northwest, Chen Jingyuan finally guided the mystic turtle to adjust its course and head due north.
Su Yan had long since crossed realms via a spatial grand array, appearing in the outer perimeter of the Ninth Passage. His figure gradually grew clear, coldness flowing within his eyes.
"Rest assured, if anyone dares to violate my master's decree, I will personally step forth to resolve it, regardless of who they are," Wuchu said.
Hearing Chen Jingyuan call out to continue, the blazing dragon shrank back, instinctively retreating while displaying an appearance as if in great pain.
The content of the lecture was nothing more than how this football match concerned the honor of the Tank Department, and how if they lost this match, the department's football team would vanish from the school's Class A league next year, and so on and so forth.
One could not simply deceive oneself, stay together with Xi Mubai, and still carry another man's child... Yes, Xi Mubai might not mind, but after all, it was different.
Though he had a premonition of this matter long before the wedding, the fact that the other party had actually gone through with it still left him feeling utterly incredulous.
He Changdi had been standing guard outside the door at that time, watching Muxiang raise the dagger toward Chu Lian. At that very moment, a man who remained calm and composed even on the battlefield felt his heart leap into his throat.
Who could have expected that when the two of them arrived at Senior Sister Xiao's doorstep, his elder brother called her only to receive a cold and indifferent attitude from her? Although he liked her, his understanding of her was quite limited, so he was unsure why she had suddenly changed, and thus did not dare to utter a sound.
"You've been sitting here for a full hour, what on earth are you doing?" Heilingge chased after him to ask, demanding an explanation.
"No! I want justice!" Shanshan abruptly stood up, giving Qinglan a fright.
They stood there in neat rows, as if waiting for Uncle Mao to utter a single word before heading toward Fengdu Mountain.
However, I stopped them with a wave of my hand, because I had my own intentions. Buck understood my personality, so he said nothing more, choosing instead to quietly watch my every move.

Night Ghost scanned the surroundings; the path back had already been blocked by the cultivators of the Black Emperor Sect. Wanting to charge back through would be no easy feat. Night Ghost knew that if he stubbornly insisted on charging back now, he had no idea how many more of his loyal subordinates would be lost. Therefore, he made a prompt decision and led his men to slaughter their way down the mountain instead.
The cave was not very long, and after walking for just a little while, they emerged. However, at the very instant they were about to exit the cave, Mu Ai stopped abruptly, causing the hunter Shu to bump right into his back and stagger forward a few steps.
The peak on the right was towering, shaped like a sharp sword thrust into the heavens, piercing deep into the clouds. The mountain had very few trees, and jagged boulders were faintly visible, resembling a dragon baring its scales and armor, terrifying to behold. Near the summit, a tiny red dot was faintly discernible. Because the distance was too great, even though Tong Niuniu strained his eyes to focus, he still could not make out what it was.
With a wave of Chu Lian's hand, Steward Qin had people lift the sled and return to the courtyard. On the way back, the joy on everyone's faces was impossible to conceal.
"Qin Hengtian, the Emperor of Desolation, has come to pay respects to the various Emperors of the Sword Furnace, Danling, and Artifact Refining." On the void warship, Qin Hengtian, clad in a purple-gold imperial robe, stepped forward, his right hand extended and covering the sky. Nine-colored rosy light shone brilliantly as he forcefully suppressed the momentum shockwaves of the six Great Emperors all by himself.
Down below, Sun Binghu had been keeping his eyes closed to rest his mind, but upon seeing this, his eyes suddenly snapped open, a fierce glint flashing within them.
In his previous life, Li An had harbored a deep aversion toward the countries of South Korea and island nations. This time, hearing with his own ears that a South Korean punk actually dared to insult his country and nation, a fire instantly ignited in his heart.
"Five days ago, the ancestors manifested, declaring that the ruler of the Hagula Kingdom was fated with Buddhism, and took him away." Speaking of this, the Fire Spirit's tone was laced with envy.
At this time, a large number of students had already gathered around the perimeter of the playground, and getting any closer was simply impossible as they had reached the edge of the matrix—which was undoubtedly a protective measure provided by the school.
"I can't quite describe his background, but it's no less formidable than the Song family's. Even Gao Shaohai of the Gao family has suffered losses at his hands," said Xia Binghe. Her understanding of Lin Feng was also limited, so she could only bring up some well-known figures to set off Lin Feng's status, and Gao Shaohai, who had suffered under Lin Feng, was undoubtedly an excellent foil.
Yuan Ying's nose felt somewhat sore at this moment, primarily stirred by the atmosphere among everyone else. After all, ever since leaving the Akame Ga Kill world, he had been in a state of free-range neglect! Yet precisely this world was the one where destiny energy had been contributed continuously and in the greatest amounts.
