As soon as he pulled the shards of glass out of his foot, he would leave this hellhole immediately. He wouldn't stay another minute; the sight of Ling Wang was infuriating.

Dijin was taken aback. The hostage tactic worked on responsible police officers and soldiers, but it was utterly useless against a military rogue like Meng Fan.

She was leaving tomorrow. Tossing and turning, unable to sleep, she finally waited until there was no movement in the room shared by Sun Qingqing and Pei Xinyue before sneaking over. "Why aren't you asleep yet? I was hoping to pull off a surprise attack," Sun Yu said, naturally and obediently curling into his warm embrace.

Sanbao bowed and scraped as he took it. Hefting the weight, he knew there was a significant amount of money inside. He opened the kraft paper envelope and saw the neat stacks of hundred-yuan bills; his eyes nearly popped out of his head.

The idlers were the only ones who truly knew how to enjoy life. Once they had these three things, even if you dragged them to sit on the Golden Throne, it was unlikely to sway their hearts.

Only then did Fang Qiuyao instinctively sense something was wrong. He whirled around just as a hand, pale and devoid of blood, lunged toward him. The movement of that hand was incredibly gentle, brushing toward him as if touching a lover. The silent, eerie stillness made Fang Qiuyao shiver, and he hurriedly raised his palm to intercept it.

"No, I am a soldier under Captain Lei Jian now. Lei Jian is already the commander of the Independent Company of the Anti-Japanese Third Army Headquarters, and Director Lin of the Political Department is just waiting for him to take office. Wherever Captain Lei goes, we follow," Niu Dali, that straight-shooter, said with his neck stiffened.

"Get behind me!" Meng Fan shouted. The agile zombie was the first to rush forward. Meng Fan used his previous method, neither dodging nor evading. Just as the agile zombie’s sharp claws were about to strike him, Meng Fan suddenly drew his blade. However, the agile zombie was exceptionally quick; it immediately retreated, narrowly dodging his strike.

Everyone must be clear on one point: our continued advance westward involves a long-distance march of nearly three hundred kilometers. The route is concentrated along railway lines where enemy forces are most heavily deployed in the occupied territories of North China. We will be threading through the narrow gaps of the enemy's tight blockade, and we will encounter great difficulties and dangers.

Wang Xiaoliang cried out in surprise, his body tilting to the side before he righted himself. If he hadn't been quick-witted, he would have fallen right off the horse's back.

After hearing this, Jiang Chengce snapped his fingers with a flamboyant flair and then whistled his way out of the Chief's office, showing no sign of pressure whatsoever.

The path of cultivation is like sailing against the current; either you are destroyed, or you break through the waves, forging ahead until you reach the end.

Now, Ruan Qingyu was pregnant with his child, something he had never expected.

Cui Bin shrugged at Sha Qiong, signaling that he hadn't said anything, and winked at her while he was at it.

Shen Yu swung her weapon repeatedly, becoming numb. Her rage did not dissipate in the slightest, yet as she watched the figure constantly approaching her, her hands began to tremble uncontrollably.

Immediately afterward, Zheng Kelan dialed the numbers for Li Haoqian’s hotel supply company and his residence one after another. However, the lines were perpetually busy, and no one answered, which threw Zheng Kelan into a panic.

Inside the office, Han Qiming leaned back against the sofa, nodding slightly toward the black-clad youth beside him.

Liyun Palace did not lack experts at the Golden Core stage, but they were not exactly abundant either. Across the entire palace, there were only a few dozen such experts, and losing one was a tremendous loss.

Yes, Ye Shenyi had just used the soul power of Hades to ignite the Brow Chakra, one of the seven chakras. The Brow Chakra is also known as the Chakra of Truth.

Fortunately, it was a night raid. Under the moonlight, the water bandits could only see shadowy figures, and filled with dread, they only offered token resistance before fleeing or surrendering.

Calculating the distance from the nearest fire brigade in Yuan County to this location, it would take at least eight minutes.

Then, Lin Yuan climbed to the mountain peak and looked down, only to see that there was indeed a volcanic crater there, filled with scorching red magma that was constantly churning.

After thinking it over for a long time, she suddenly realized that there was nothing better to soothe a heartbreak than living under the same roof as her idol.

They hadn't traveled long before Qin Shou sensed two very powerful sword auras clashing nearby.

Two and a half hours later, Chu Du and his party finally reached the summit of Jietian Peak. Seeing the scene before them, everyone—except for the Principal—opened their mouths in astonishment, and Chu Du was no exception.

Wei Ziming was covered in sweat from Wei Ronghao’s lecture. Hearing their instructions, he stood up and repeatedly promised to handle it immediately.

"Exactly, Ziyi, let's go in. At worst, we can just take a look and leave; it doesn't cost anything to look anyway." After He Miao said this, and with Zeng Hao chiming in from the side, Zhen Ziyi was half-persuaded and pulled into the store by He Miao.

"The Fish-Gut Sword is fine, but it doesn't suit you. Wait for your master to find you the Chiyou Sword in the future," Wuya Sanren curled his lip; the Fish-Gut Sword wasn't even worth his notice.

Those who remained on the mountaintop kept waving at the sky until everything had vanished from sight.

Qin Tian turned his head with a smile and glanced at a man with a shifty look nearby, not minding at all that he had revealed himself to be a newcomer.
