Chapter 27

However, due to fundamental differences in philosophy, the sect’s supreme elders eventually resolved to eliminate him. Forced to resist, he relied on a peerless palm technique he had personally created to break out of the sect and establish a great new school of cultivation.

"No, that won't happen. Some things hurt enough the first time; I won't let it happen a second time. Never again." Gu Jinhuan had once longed with such agony to return to the past, but she knew she could never go back.

"How much further can you fly?" Cui Shiyu shouted into a microphone, questioning the artificial intelligence of the "Rescue One."

The tree-men were offering resistance in every direction, at every moment. From the direction of their reinforcements alone, it was truly difficult to discern any pattern.

"Go with her. Find a translator in the room where the gnomes are kept on the Beagle. She will ask the questions, the translator will record them, and you keep an eye on her to make sure she doesn't cause any trouble." With a sigh, Fours instructed Yuan Yelan.

Ji Wushuang smiled. The flower-like radiance of her smile made the moonlight filtering through the corridor pale in comparison. He could not help but lower his head to kiss the corners of her upturned lips.

Yuan Qi sighed. Seeing Chu Hemeng’s spirited drive, she secretly cheered herself on. Taking a few deep breaths, she turned and plunged back into the crowded job fair.

There were indeed ways for members of the Abandoned Island to recognize one another, so this was a matter that could not be hidden even if they wanted to.

Guan Shouheng tidied everything from the bedside to the doorway. At the door, he lined up her pile of new shoes one by one before turning back.

He could not deny that he still loved Su Xiaoxiao, but the moment Ye Jing’an placed Ye Baiwei’s hand in his, he felt an unprecedented sense of fulfillment. He truly wanted to spend the rest of his days making up for his past mistakes and living a good life with Ye Baiwei.

Was it a sense of loss from being ignored? She had become accustomed to being held in the palm of others' hands. Now, treated with such indifference by Ye Bin, was her inner balance upset? Fan Bingbing kept asking herself this question.

Upon returning, he saw Liu Yifei just emerging from the bathroom. In an instant, Ye Feng cast the previous events to the back of his mind.

Coming out of stealth, he instantly appeared before the dust cloud shrouding Naruto Uzumaki and used a low-level Wind Style jutsu to blow the dust away.

"That is my duty—to protect Athena!" Ye Bin said, accompanying his words with a courtly bow, tipping his hat like a mid-17th-century gentleman.

She had prepared the resources needed to reach the late stage of the Quasi-Emperor realm, but the resources required to advance from the late stage to the peak, and eventually to challenge the Great Emperor realm, were far too vast. She still needed to work hard to gather more.

The leader among them had a long scar running from the corner of his eye to his mouth, giving him a ferocious appearance.

However, Allie was clearly being controlled by the computer; she was acting against her own will. If she had her own memories, she would surely have stopped immediately.

But this young man was too ruthless, completely ignoring him and leaving no room for negotiation. He had no choice but to fight.

Qin Keke and CC both widened their eyes, inwardly regretting that they hadn't warned Brother Bin to stay away from her.

But there was no time to think about that now. Wu Zhao fully mobilized the power of the dynasty and pushed the Heavenly Demon Secret Arts to their limit.

Ten taels of silver for a life was an overestimation of the value of life in troubled times. Even so, sixty thousand taels a year could buy six thousand lives. The price offered by Jiang Chengren made Chen Xin beam with joy. He was one step closer to his ideal of sweeping across the world with the Surudong spear in hand.

Gao Jitai did not press for more, and Gao Antai did not intervene. The three brothers remained silent, as if lost in deep thought. The spacious official hall was very quiet.

They all knew this; after all, Caster’s presence was so overwhelming that it would be unrealistic for them not to know.

"Qiulan, help me arrange a meeting with Zhang Rong tonight; I have something to discuss with him. And Huang Qi, let's get a private room at Da Shihui. I think it’s time to lay everything out for everyone!" Li Xiang said to Qiulan in a low, firm voice. Qiulan was stunned for a moment, then nodded as she looked at him.

In truth, at his current level, Lin Feng no longer had many cravings for things in the real world.

Chen Qichi’s proposal to rename and expand the merchant escort fleet was passed without dispute. His second method remained the same as Liu Zhibo’s previous idea—monopolizing the salt tax—but with a change in the entity responsible. It would no longer be the Prince of Shu’s mansion, but the legally mandated salt monopoly agency under the Administration Commission: the Salt Commissioner’s Office.

Zhang Tianyi, however, saw things differently. The events of the night had far exceeded his expectations; his supposedly meticulous arrangements had been dismantled by Yu Qiaoqing.

After all, he was a man who cherished his life. He had been able to act as he pleased all these years only because his life had never been threatened.

"Eh? Grandma, do you know him?" Hearing his grandmother’s tone, it seemed she recognized this boy.

Chu Fei looked at the cultivation manual before him, feeling both excited and conflicted. There was no such thing as love without a reason in this world, especially when it came to casually leaking a sect’s important techniques.

While light orbs were hard to obtain, loyal and powerful teammates were even harder to come by. Xia Tian needed strong helpers and capable allies. Perhaps, in a way, he also craved friendship deep down.

"Kill him! Destroy him!" Stryker recalled the fierce look in Wolverine’s eyes. He knew this incident would not end well. After all, Wolverine had heard his entire plan while in the tank. Damn it, Wolverine should have been unconscious; why was he able to hear his plan?

What happened? Did King Odin issue an order? Or did something happen to Odin? What was wrong with Odin?

He had spent much time lying under the camera with his eyes closed to rest, mostly because of dizzy spells and headaches that made it difficult to even open his eyes. Some records that might have served as material were likely missed by him.

"Gulp." Xia Tian’s Adam’s apple bobbed slightly as he turned to the second page. The Dark Elves had slowly developed a social order. A leader had emerged, and after hundreds and thousands of years of change, he was no longer satisfied with the status quo; they began to set their sights on the entire universe.
