Chapter 27

Du Huan pressed both hands against Nian Nanchen’s wrists, struggling to break his iron grip, terrified that if he exerted any more force, she would perish at his hands.

Stared at by her own son for quite a while, Old Madam Li felt a bit uncomfortable and reached up to touch her face.

Fang Mian was startled and hurriedly withdrew her spiritual power. Turning her head in a panic, she happened to see the Judge gripping Ye Zisu’s arm behind her back. In the look Ye Zisu cast toward her, there was nothing but a sense of utter hopelessness.

She believed that enthusiasm was not wrong, but excessive enthusiasm would only cause trouble for others. It was just like the current situation between Kendifiel and Yin Mengli. Yin Mengli was fine, but if Xiao Hun were to discover Kendifiel’s behavior, he would certainly have him sent back to the United States.

Ye Muyao’s tone was indifferent. She did not even know what exactly Yuchi Jin was referring to, as she had committed many overstepping acts herself; even Bai Lian’s body was controlled by her, whether for better or worse.

In the past, she could keep him buried deep in her heart and go on living; in the future, she could continue to live the same way. Song Tianming was the thorn embedded in her heart, one that had grown deep into her flesh and fused with her bones and blood, making it impossible to ever pull it out in this lifetime.

"Xiao Hun, what has happened to you? How could you remember nothing at all? Could it be..." Duan Luojin did not finish her sentence, as she assumed Xiao Hun must have been injured by those people yesterday.

When she returned to the apartment, Auntie Su breathed a long sigh of relief as soon as she saw Shu Man return.

Walking along the road, Fang Mian replayed the events of recent days in her mind.

Suddenly, several spirit talismans flew from behind the scenes, charging toward the mob surrounding me with brilliant radiance. Amidst a flash of lightning and flint, the men were all sent flying, falling to the ground in disarray and screaming in agony.

"With his melee advantage combined with that heaven-defying gravitational effect, it’s simply impossible to defeat him, right?" Even so, he exerted all his strength to stab the Death Butcher in the back several times, but the results were not even as effective as the bullets from before.

"Hmph!" Dong Fei sneered. With a wave of his hand, the soldiers stepped forward to bind the bandits, held blades to their necks, and marched them back.

Xie Tong leaped from his spot, flipped in the air, and landed head-first above Wufang. By utilizing the momentum—it turned out Xie Tong had cleverly borrowed the force of Wufang’s kick to propel himself upward—he was able to strike areas he could not reach while standing.

Although it was a cruel reality, the fact that the opponent had brought twenty experts of the Venerable Terrace realm along with the Supreme Treasure meant they certainly weren't here for a friendly visit.

Ye Linghan sat down quietly and closed his eyes, gradually calming his restless heart. He felt the tranquility of nature; every gust of breeze and every rustle of the flora could not escape his ears.

However, Ling Tianyun, Ye Yinfeng, and the others heard every one of his words clearly.

Once the soldiers of those thousand-man commanders left, the dense crowd of soldiers in front of Yixiong Manor was halved. The heavy shield bearers stood perfectly still, their rectangular shields planted in front of them, waiting for orders.

He opened the door to the pharmacy. It was pouring rain outside. When the debt collectors saw that we, the couple, were truly inside the shop, they immediately prepared to make trouble. I can still remember those ferocious faces vividly.

"Let’s go, back to the tribe." Wanyan Yan did not punish An Manzi; she simply issued the command in a flat tone.

Why were the orcs setting up camp on this land, thirty miles from the Wind Whisper tribe? Who were they planning to stir up trouble with?

As the door opened, Li Lili walked in wearing a white dress. Hearing the music from the television, she glanced at the screen and said to Zuo Jiang, "Young Master Zuo enjoys watching this type of show?" Having heard Hu Haiqing call him Young Master Zuo several times, and learning that he wanted to acquire the Entertainment Satellite Channel, she couldn't help but follow suit.

However, after Bob took it and examined it carefully, he discovered it was vastly different from a knock-off phone, as he saw only a power button and no other buttons at all.

"Speak! As long as this magistrate can do it, I will certainly agree to your request!" Hearing the other party make a demand, the guilt in Magistrate Lin’s heart immediately lessened, and he replied with renewed vigor.

For his master, the world had become nothing but a prison. Where he was imprisoned no longer mattered.

Hearing this, Cheng Mingzhen smiled slightly. He clapped his hands a few times, ordering his subordinates to bring in wine and food. Before long, the dishes arrived one after another: lamb, fish, and freshly hunted game, which tasted exceptionally delicious. Wang Deren ate until he was beaming with joy.

After the New Year, Zuo Jiang’s parents were so busy they were nowhere to be seen, leaving Zuo Jiang alone at home with nothing to do. Around 9:00 AM on the sixth day of the New Year, a knock sounded at the door. Zuo Jiang wondered who it could be, assuming it was a colleague from his parents' workplace, and stood up reluctantly to open it.

For some reason, although Duke said nothing, a glimmer of hope rose inexplicably in Zhao Lie’s despairing heart. He nodded and truly followed Duke’s orders to go outside and deploy men to clear the traps left by the enemy.

After all, in these ten thousand years, they had opened the Polar Region in the Clouds many times, but the cultivators coming for the trial had never once managed to find all the hidden rewards.

Now, Lu Chao had three points and Xiang Yu had two. On the very next play, Xiang Yu repeated the same move, and Lu Chao could only watch helplessly as he scored another point.

"I’ll do it!" Big Bear maneuvered the twin-wing drone over. He couldn't see the guy leaping about, but the drone was equipped with various sensors that could roughly lock onto its position, and a stream of ion beams was fired.

By that time, even if the system couldn't give him the Ice Soul Snow Lotus as a reward for the moment, he might at least be able to find information regarding the "Severed Meridians." Li Changlin was extremely eager to learn some details.

After saying this, the fat man walked out with a straight face, completely different from his usual grinning self.

Wu Gang: Not yet! Fairy Chang'e hasn't changed her underwear in years; there's simply no chance to steal them.

Under the influence of the electromagnetic pulse, the anti-aircraft guns and ion cannons, still reacting sluggishly, only managed to shoot down two missiles. The remaining eighteen struck various parts of the base almost uniformly, setting the entire facility ablaze.
