"I never expected that even without channeling his spiritual energy, Zifeng would possess such formidable offensive power. It seems his strength is somewhat superior to Qingxuan's." Song Zheng thought to himself while increasing the distance between them. Meanwhile, spiritual energy continuously surged from his body, forming a massive barrier of light directly in front of him.
The greatest difficulty for the orphanage was the lack of funding. However, with Xiao Yaning's sponsorship of fifty million, all the problems were readily resolved; after all, this society was still driven by money.
Following Qingxuan's suggestion, Song Zheng decided to try it as a last resort, channeling his wood-type spiritual energy into the long sword in his hand. The moment the spiritual energy was infused, the originally rust-covered long sword suddenly burst with dazzling radiance. Flashes of green light flickered ceaselessly along the blade, making it impossible for anyone to look directly at it.
Having reached this point, no matter how reluctant he felt, Varys understood that he had to do something to safeguard the prince's future.
He couldn't be bothered to even glance at the corpses beneath his feet. With Li Ke on his back, he was just about to leave when a commotion suddenly came from the waist of the mountain, leaving him baffled.
Now, this young man actually dared to talk back to him like this. Wasn't this showing complete disrespect and contempt for him?
Yu Chuxuan had no choice but to pretend not to know this embarrassing fellow, and imitating the others, he looked away in another direction! To his surprise, Jiang Yuxuan actually walked step by step toward him, and finally embraced Yu Chuxuan's arm intimately, as if trying to declare that the two of them shared a very close relationship.
Jingjing flew past him silently, flung herself into her mother's arms, and burst into loud sobs before she could even say a word.
"I can't keep up with your thoughts anymore. Just like A-Huo said, whatever you tell me to do, I'll do it." Ah Zui felt a gap between herself and Summer for the first time, because this was also the first time she failed to understand what was on Summer's mind. After all, she was merely Summer's shadow, not the roundworm in his belly.
After about a quarter of an hour, the stone cauldron was filled with rich aromas and brilliant colorful rays of light. Stopping the infusion of spiritual energy, Shen Yi formed hand seals and cast the final spirit incantation. With a soft "hum," the stone cauldron trembled slightly, and all the various wondrous phenomena vanished without a trace, leaving only an elusive, faint medicinal fragrance lingering as if narrating something.
Just as he was confronting Qin Yaoguang, a rapid clacking of high heels echoed down the corridor.

Wuyang had already been by Chu Qingluo's side for quite some time, and since he frequently moved about the palace, he had gained a fair understanding of the currents within the palace walls.
Hearing Sun Jiaming put it this way, Gu'er also realized that since the factory was undergoing inspections, the factory leadership probably wouldn't grant any leaves of absence.
As the eldest and most senior figure among the Young Marshal's army, Zhang Liao naturally took good care of these younger brothers on ordinary days.
Xia Lingsha's Spider Queen avatar had not arrived in person; however, even if the Spider Queen descended in person, she was not omnipotent and lacked proficiency in certain domains.
She walked slowly toward Gu Runxun, who was lying on the ground not far away, and reached out to touch his cold cheek. To her dismay, her hand passed straight through Gu Runxun's face.
Sipping the sweet and mellow wine, Guan Hai and the newly recruited soldiers were deeply moved, their eyes gradually moistening. Back when they were Yellow Turban bandits, everyone shouted abuse and beat them, and life consisted only of plundering and pillaging; when had they ever received such genuine and sincere treatment from ordinary folk?
After those footsteps faded away, the window suddenly emitted a crisp sound, followed by the sound of Song Qingshuang gently pushing the window open.
"This isn't... how did this end up back in your hands?" He asked with wide eyes. He remembered that on New Year's Eve, this item was still in Chu Qingluo's possession, and she had even claimed with absolute certainty that it was something discarded by Luo Lifei.
Gu'er simply could not bear to listen any longer. Coming under the banner of bringing honor to her, she had bullied Lin Zheng, and now things had turned into such a mess; she wished fervently that the other party had never come.
In addition to them were the father and son Balang and Baming. Baming's status as a Tier 3 high-level esper had long been confirmed, while Balang, as the overlord of this region, had already possessed the strength of a Tier 3 peak esper many years ago.
"Baiyu, go fetch the mirror." Ling Jingshu's breathing was unsteady, her voice hurried, and an unusual flush bloomed across her cheeks.

Yet裴震 (Pei Zhen) and 蔡姣 (Cai Jiao) were completely unaware of all this; the two of them were busy selecting raw jadeite stones.
"Apologies, apologies, I am so sorry, Junior Sister, I got too excited." Pei Zhen immediately jumped down from the stone platform and helped pat Cai Jiao on the back.
At Balang's command, all the rocket launchers immediately began a concentrated barrage, instantly destroying several of Li Wudao's machine-gun pillboxes.
"Old man." Flesh and blood of her own flesh, after all; even though Old Mrs. Chai knew Chai Yinxing possessed a vicious heart, she still couldn't harden her heart enough to pretend she had never given birth to this child.
"Tie up all the Zhijie demons, and roast these demon kings for me! Today we are having a victory feast!" Gu Chuanxia waved his hand grandly, and the surroundings remained as serene as ever.
Xu Rufeng and Meng Qianluo were long-famed rivals in the pugilistic world, a situation similar to that of Ximen Chuuxue and Ye Gucheng, though far less renowned than the latter two.
The change came too abruptly for Feng Yaotian to react in time. He could only fiercely urge his internal cultivation, sending his primordial energy erupting outward to form a protective qi wall in front of him. The qi wall had barely formed when the sharp blade stopped less than three inches from his eyes, narrowly blocking the fatal blow and unable to advance even an inch further.
Even though Ling Jingshu knew this conjecture was utterly absurd, looking at Wei Yan's expression and reaction at that moment, that ridiculous notion in her heart grew increasingly vivid.
