Then, Thomas opened his palm, and a blood-red heart appeared in his hand; the heart was still twitching and beating continuously.

“It’s somewhat related, but I can’t tell you what comes next—you’ll have to figure that out yourself.” Lin Luoshang smiled and then left. It would take some time before the results of the comparison were ready, and two mid-level inspectors were sufficient to guard the place.

“So what?” Qian Cangqianxi turned back, meeting the blue gaze of the sapphire eyes, a faint smile at the corner of his mouth—resolute and brave.

To become an unparalleled warrior, one must endure countless life-and-death trials, forcing out their utmost potential between life and death to achieve feats beyond ordinary men.

Wei Hu, having lost the guidance of the crimson light, ultimately lost his way in the white mist and had to retrace his steps. Fortunately, he had the “Heavenly Oracle Talisman” prepared by the Daoist Sovereign—a treasured artifact of the Heavenly Oracle Hall that could turn misfortune into blessing and illuminate the way.

On this day, Qi Qi and Su Xuesha were sparring when Qi Lin heard a rumor: the Qiancheng Cave of Qingqiu Mountain had been destroyed by the Holy Infant King, and the Fox Clan of Qiancheng Cave, including Princess Yushan, had turned to ashes. The Bull Demon King was ruthless; shortly after returning from the Nine Phoenix Palace, he wiped out all the descendants of the Ten Thousand Years Fox King to eliminate future threats.

“If there’s no food inside, we have to hurry and send some in. Don’t let this guy starve to death,” said the fat man.

With the cultivation of a Sovereign, the barriers set up boldly named “Divine Dream,” which alone indicated the Dream Sovereign’s formidable power.

“Oh! So annoying! Aren’t you going back? Let’s go. The fortune-telling shop hasn’t opened in ages! Maybe if I go back and fool some people, I’ll feel better!” Li Changqing said, picking up something from the ground.

“Freedom of speech? Can we just talk about erotic or political topics freely now?” Cheng Shuai sneered pointedly, questioning.

“Yes, are you a Snake-level… Lord?” Chen Geng asked cautiously. Though the other party had saved him, that didn’t necessarily mean they belonged to the organization.

Wu Bin and the others all shouted simultaneously; Wang Lin’s words had truly shocked them.

At the same time, in his hands, lifesaving monkey hair, difficulty dice, the Immortal Slaying Formation diagram, the Immortal Slaying Sword, the Seventy-Two Transformations, and other methods were all being prepared.

Apart from the Lord’s Mansion at the center of the city and the adjacent War Hall Trading House, there were no restrictions anywhere else within the city—strength alone dictated all.

In other words, these warring states fought desperately for survival or annihilation, but the central empire had no involvement whatsoever.

“He is at the Agnelli family’s private hospital, but I suspect he’s not there to recover from wounds; most likely, he’s hiding from you,” Steve said.

“Come with us!” The middle-aged man said without hesitation, directly taking Chen Yi away. Along with them was the orc from before. As for the other undead and beastmen, they paid no attention, as if nothing had happened.

Forget about times of peace—even in the midst of widespread warfare, this place was the safest haven.

Some explosions occurred directly in the air or water, others high above; in short, explosions were everywhere, growing increasingly numerous, as if countless firecrackers were continuously detonating throughout the entire space, gradually filling it.

Brother Hao acted decisively, charging forward, holding off two men, his figure flashing as he instantly reached the doorway.

She was gravely injured. As a ghost, she was not someone easily wounded by ordinary people, let alone severely injured—few could inflict such damage.

Perhaps feeling guilty toward their two sons, she rarely opposed any decisions they made.

Four other Saint Eagle independent cultivators also charged forward with weapons drawn, and soon the sounds of battle erupted.

“Ling Huan!” Mo Lingyin’s voice carried a hint of worry, fearing that Ling Huan’s subconscious memories might stir the hidden pain deep in her heart.

The thought flashed briefly before she dismissed it—such a foolish question, and thankfully she hadn’t asked it aloud.

Lei Dachu peered carefully into the shining light and discovered that the object was something familiar to him.

Li Manni shoved and pushed Fan Yanyan toward the attending physician, who then led him to the doctor’s office beside the emergency room.

Fan Yanyan examined the leg of Zhao Jiaxi, which had been caught in a trap. The bear trap’s sharp teeth mercilessly bit into her leg muscles, leaving a deep and long, terrifying wound. Although he was a forensic doctor and knew how to treat wounds, this was the first time he had seen such a severe injury, and he was momentarily at a loss.

Though reluctant, Ji Weiwei had no choice but to nod. Indeed, she felt drowsy, as if she would fall asleep instantly given a suitable environment.

After eating, Li Yunhao said he had documents to review at the Imperial Kun Hall and left. Shang Qing didn’t urge him to stay; she was the only close confidante in the palace, and she wasn’t in a hurry—she could patiently wait for his cold heart to thaw. Besides, she had her own matters to attend to.

A middle-aged man dressed in a black suit appeared before Xiao Yuxin. His pale face lacked any color, and his light red eyes gleamed with a certain radiance. Seeing Xiao Yuxin, he showed no surprise, only a cursory glance, then ushered her inside.

“Don’t force yourself. Better to get your body back in order first,” Lu Wei said gently, a rare tone of kindness.

His words drew widespread agreement, and the noise in the Hele Pavilion grew louder. As everyone’s attention returned to the pavilion, Zhao Xing spurred his horse and quietly slipped away without drawing notice.

Peter habitually scratched behind the raccoon’s ears as it returned to his side. Hearing this, his hand paused. The half-asleep raccoon looked up in confusion, as if responding to Old Jack’s call.

Zhang Hao nodded, gripping his greatsword with both hands. A few leaps brought him to the outskirts of the battlefield, where he swept through the outer ranks of gray-skinned goblins like a gale clearing fallen leaves.

After giving instructions, Xiao Yuxin went upstairs to rest. The mole creature went on a short walk and returned to the enticing aroma wafting through the air… red meat, fragrant herbs, and even a jar of wine?

Jimmy looked at her, a strange flicker of fire in his brown eyes. His face bore a depth beyond his years. Mei Yu pressed her lips tightly. Peter hadn’t followed tonight, and though Jimmy seemed intimidating, he didn’t feel dangerous. She held his gaze steadily.
