After the time it takes for a stick of incense to burn, a blinding light erupted from the depths, and the surrounding scenery suddenly opened up before them.
The mockery and sarcasm in those words were unmistakable—discussing it, indeed? If one truly felt affection, would there be any need for discussion?
"Like this..." Xia Fangyuan noticed Gong Shaoxie's sorrowful expression; it was the first time she had ever seen such a look on his face.
Feng Wu nodded with a smile and left the courtyard. Thinking of facing him upon her return, hearing his distressing words, and seeing that expression that made her heart soften against her will, she hesitated before changing course toward Tang Dai’s courtyard.
Teacher Kong Yun’s family was also shocked to see the anti-cancer agent fetch such a high price, suddenly feeling that the two million they had given Xiao Aining was far too little.
There were no bottles or jars in that place, and the room was simply furnished; in the living room, there was only a 17-inch black-and-white television.
Suddenly feeling a pair of powerful arms wrap around her, Gong Xianxian opened her tightly closed eyes.
This was only natural; courtesy demanded reciprocity. When Sixth Uncle visited, the old master had also brought gifts for the other party.

Once the captain emerged, he immediately ordered the troops to maneuver toward the quagmire, insisting they reach it by nightfall.
In the white light, Wangyou was watching me. At that moment, she seemed like a goddess from the heavens, especially when she waved her hand, and in an instant, I saw the mountain of corpses disappear.

It was an enormous pool, yet it was divided into three colors: crimson, red, and green.
Wherever the blood touched, the withered flowers and grass beneath the snow turned black instantly. A drop of blood blown by the wind onto a tree caused the pine to wither rapidly.
Catching sight of Hao Xin’s angry expression, Qian Zhenzhen choked, realizing she had gone too far, but the words were already spoken and could not be taken back.
They were not a squad of Spirit Warriors like the Divine Dragon Team; Paint City possessed one intermediate talisman master.
A young woman dressed in a kimono entered to perform a tea ceremony, but Hai Fei dismissed her. He handed the menu to her, she ordered cold noodles, he watched as she added a side dish, and then he pressed the table bell.
He knew that if Xi Ruozhou did not return Fang Jueqian, he would never be able to find her, no matter what.
His name was Batu, and he had two powerful True God subordinates—or rather, his two younger brothers. The three brothers were lone wolves: ruthless, bloodthirsty, cruel, and fearless of death.

Clasping her hand tightly, Fu Heng gave her a slight nod, signaling her not to be afraid, for he had already made up his mind.
Wang Jiehou ran his fingers through Fang Jueqian’s hair, gently combing her dark tresses; a tingling sensation radiated from his fingertips, feeling both comforting and secure.
Yet, if Edinburgh were to fall, the Scottish administrative body would be utterly destroyed. Afterward, there would be no one left to provide supplies to the Scottish resistance on the front lines, nor would anyone be left to issue orders to the army. In that event, the Scottish border guards would inevitably collapse and surrender.
Now, they could only watch helplessly as that mass of dense, innate vitality slowly submerged into Yuan Jiahui’s soul and sea of consciousness.

Their eldest legitimate son, named Zhong Chang, was only fourteen and had just come of age; there was no need to hold him responsible, and he could be allowed to inherit the family business. Considering that "super tea set" said to be worth three thousand strings of cash, granting him a thousand or eight hundred *shi* of land would not be a problem.
Therefore, the Kievan Rus’ region was now a free paradise for the unruly Cossacks. As for the Grand Duchy of Lithuania, it was fundamentally incapable of exerting effective control over the area, with its influence limited to only a few key cities like Kiev.
As long as the Asakura clan held firm until the coalition forces retreated on their own, they would only have to face the Azai of Omi in the future. Although the Oda of Mino were relatives by marriage, they would not necessarily assist Azai Nagamasa.
