Chapter 31

"Lord Liu, there is no need for thanks; let us simply consider it a stroke of fate between us," said You Jingyan.

"Fire!" Liu Yijing shouted loudly. He was the first to loose an arrow at Dong Ping. Dong Ping, having anticipated this, arched his back in a bridge maneuver to dodge it, then charged into the military formation of Shangguan Yi ahead.

He had spent over thirty thousand points in total, a loss that made his heart bleed. Yet, the comforting reality was that Zhang Yuanhao had finally confirmed he had found what he was looking for.

He uttered a cold sentence, snapped the man's jaw back into place, covered his mouth with his own hand, and delivered a heavy punch to Yan Qi's chest.

Zhang Yuanhao transformed into a streak of light. As he approached within three zhang of the giant rock, he felt an intense threat. Infinite rays of restrictive light suddenly erupted; the rock seemed to transform into a hedgehog armed to the extreme with defensive enchantments.

The Liao Dynasty finally began to take the rise of Wanyan Aguda seriously. With a combat ratio of twenty-seven to one, no one doubted the outcome of this battle, and Yelü Yanxi, relieved, happily returned to his hunting.

One at the Sanyuan Guiyi realm and the other at the Spiritual Consciousness realm, the collision of their powers sent ripples of terrifying energy spreading in all directions.

Furthermore, You Jingyan felt that since Yeli Wangrong enjoyed the arts of blade and spear, he certainly had to spar with him; friendships forged this way were far more reliable than those bought with gifts.

Zhang Yuanhao rose and retreated, watching coldly as the pile of gore and organs on the ground, which had seemed almost alive, dissipated like foam. He did not lower his guard in the slightest, lifting a candle with his other hand to scan his surroundings quickly.

A drawn blade, no matter how dull, will draw blood if it strikes, and repeated wounds lead to death.

The Sky Wolf Army's initial siege was merely a feint; their true intent was to destroy the food supplies. They seized the opportunity to exit the city, allowing the Sky Wolf soldiers scattered throughout the area to disperse in an orderly fashion from the four city gates, thereby encircling the entire city of Xiangyang.

"Manager Gao" instinctively felt a resistance to being controlled, yet his body slumped into the chair against his will. Last night... he had simply been too exhausted.

A roar went up from the audience; it was the first time they had seen Gulana'erfu's sword anywhere other than at her waist.

This feeling was one warmth could not describe; she only felt that at this moment, she could soar to the heavens.

Because only those who are alive can feel how close death truly is; only they would face death with a defiant song, and only they would feel the thrill of exchanging their lives to protect those they love.

"Brother Long, the future of all our brothers rests in your hands. Do not hesitate any longer!" Tie Qingshan stood up and walked toward Ashilong and the others.

He completely settled his mind, ignoring the standoff between his secondary life form and the six zombie princes, and focused all his energy on integrating his recent insights into his cultivation.

"The final match is a test of real combat. There are only six blood-wood tokens. Among you ten, if anyone defeats four opponents, you may come directly to me to claim one," Elder Jiang said softly.

Hu Bugui knew in his heart that he was actually struggling against himself and the entire penal system. He found the old man before him repulsive, and felt his own anger to be ridiculous and foolish. His volcanic rage deflated like a punctured ball, and he collapsed into his chair.

Old Guo, the caregiver, walked into the ward and asked Zheng Haidong, "Weren't you standing at the corridor entrance just now? Didn't you hear me calling you?" He was drenched in sweat, with beads of perspiration standing out on his forehead.

Mu Yuncong withdrew his spiritual energy, and the black sword disintegrated, returning into eight daggers that coalesced into a purple-gold fan.

Dan Zhucao watched the loves and sorrows of all living things, and her naive heart gradually rippled along with the waves of the Sansheng Lake.

Li Xinmei stopped in her tracks upon hearing Ye Nan's words. She did not believe this good-for-nothing had any solutions, but she clung to a shred of hope; the Zhang Feichao before her was truly detestable.

With that, the treasure-hunting team was assembled, and the middle-aged man activated the magic array, sending the fifteen of them into the ancient battlefield.

One had to admit, when a handsome young man acts spoiled, it is truly easy to let one's guard down.

Lin Luo was astonished to find that the red roses around the bed and on the walls were slowly disappearing, replaced by a vast expanse of purple lavender.

Mu Qiuhan firmly kept the Prince's favor in mind, knowing that if another opportunity arose in the future, he must return the help.

"Hey, will you people from other worlds be killed?" With his own life at stake, Lin Luo did not mind asking for advice.

Zhao Huailiang agreed and headed straight for the convenience store at the intersection. Before long, he returned carrying two large bundles of yellow paper spirit money.

I couldn't be bothered with her. To pass the time, I took a plate of autumn pear cakes out of my space pouch.

However, Elder Li was different; he came from the military department and commanded the elites of the Privy Council. It was just unclear what relationship Elder Li had with Li Fengshui.

While speaking, Chu He stared coldly at the furious middle-aged man in blood-stained robes in the sky, raising his hand from afar.

He had drunk too much last night; perhaps he had agreed to something while following their lead? Old Fan had spent too long in the streets; he didn't know his own state when drunk, but his brothers had seen it happen plenty of times.

He was brothers with Song Cheng and had been to Shuiyun Song many times. Over time, although they hadn't had formal contact, he knew a bit about the situation.

This family must be the Gu family of the Imperial Capital. From his tone, the family seemed vast and complex. When he had gone to the capital, he saw that although this man was a junior, he didn't hold that "Second Uncle" in any regard, and the old man treated him differently as well. He must have experienced a struggle within the family to achieve his current status.

I wasn't surprised by the antique value of the teacup, but rather by how familiar He Zhixu was with these things. Knowing him until now, I never realized he had such an interest in antiques.

Du Ruo walked to the side of Biluo and glanced at An Ye. An Ye gestured with his mouth, indicating that Lu Wu was throwing a tantrum.

Tian Xin, just out of the elevator, saw the glowing gilded characters "808" on the translucent glass wall opposite the elevator entrance.

Zhuang Yan barely slept that night. Every time I curled up toward the edge of the bed, he would wake up and pull me into his arms. He said I had been talking nonsense in my sleep while having nightmares, and it had been heartbreaking to listen to.
