Volume One, Chapter 39: Come on, you beasts—I’m ready!

"Oh, it seems we have guests again?" Bao Mei'er leaned forward to peer into the hall, noticing that the Phoenix Guards had entered once more. Generally, when the Phoenix Guards appeared, it meant visitors had arrived and they were coming to report it.

Behind me, dozens of shadow limbs fanned out like a peacock’s tail, centered on my body. One of the limbs under my command coiled tightly around a long pole high above my head, wind-whipped and dense. The shadow strips wrapping the tip of the pole resembled dried kelp, their long, flat forms fluttering in the breeze.

The Supreme Kai is a deity who transcends all other Kais, including the Grand Supreme Kai; his divine status is as vastly different from Piccolo’s as heaven is from earth.

Hearing the commoner elder ask this, Tian Gua blushed deeply and quickly hid behind Yu Xiaotian. Yun Longzi gave a dry laugh and flicked a trace of spiritual energy, causing the projection to continue playing.

Yun Longzi bowed and handed over a storage bracelet. Tian Gua took it and passed it to the blind old woman. She probed it with a sliver of divine sense, finding a pile of spirit gold coins, along with some medicinal pills, magic crystals, and demonic essence materials.

At that time, only the more than one hundred thousand Guan Ning Cavalry under Yuan Chonghuan of the Liaodong Army received pay that the Chongzhen Emperor had scraped together by borrowing from every possible source; the remaining border troops, including the Capital Garrison, had no pay at all.

The third son’s wife immediately obeyed her father-in-law's instructions with a submissive air, but no sooner had she set down the task of feeding the pigs than she picked up the chore of feeding the chickens. The whole family simply could not sit idle, for they felt at ease only when they were busy.

"Later, Frieza and his father came to Earth, and I obtained their cells," Cell said with a smile.

"Right, what nonsense are you spouting, little boy? Do you want me to beat your bottom, you rascal?" Zhu Bajie shouted.

Qin Kun and the others felt helpless. Fortunately, they did not need to personally conduct the talent tests, as the local government helped resolve that, otherwise the four of them would have been completely overwhelmed.

Yu Ling and Shao Yang were both startled, and even Lu Xiao, who was currently dwelling in the sea of consciousness, was incomparably shocked.

The three leaped back to the Demon Capture Division and went directly to the second floor of the rear hall. Master Zhang pulled back the cloth sheet and performed a series of maneuvers, but Li Mi only stirred slightly, as if still in a deep slumber.

In order to catch a glimpse of her beauty, the area around the stage had long since been packed to bursting. However, no one dared to seize the central main seat, as it was reserved for Xiao Buyi, the head of the Xiao Mansion in the East City, regardless of whether he came or not.

It was precisely for this reason that when the authorities confiscated the Duke’s Mansion, they left Qu Jiaojiao with enough jewelry and money to ensure her remaining years would be secure and carefree.

Old Ancestor Pixiu suddenly felt a powerful force surging back at him. Thinking it was Cheng Shu'er's doing, he let out a cold snort, unleashed his aura without reservation, and swept it toward her like a devastating flood.

The two speculated that for the qualifications of Yu and Wan to break through to the early Foundation Establishment stage, it would certainly not be a matter of one or two Foundation Establishment pills.

Because of the unique nature of his battle soul, he already possessed the ability to fight across tiers, and now, with the addition of Flame Lightning, he was like a tiger with wings—not to mention the third-tier talismans he was already attempting to draw during battles.

Lu Xiao’s heart trembled. Although the situation had been critical when he was being pursued by the Ghost King, he indeed had not thought to look for the other party and that black nascent soul.

Su Li had been in meetings all day and was driving home. A project at Hongji Enterprise had run into trouble, and he had already pulled two consecutive all-nighters.

The reason Wu Liao was under such immense pressure was, truthfully, that the average cultivation level of these bandits was simply too low.

He knew that as the Emperor of Canglan, Qin Yue was hardly a man who showed weakness easily. He was simply too skilled at exploiting others' psychology and too adept at grasping their weaknesses.

To centralize power, Zunwu Fortress had expended immense manpower and wealth to build pipelines connecting the Eight Gates of the Imperial Road, which were known as the "Imperial Road."

While chatting, Xue Meng asked how to get out of this collapse and informed them that she had a mission to complete.

Yan Zhengxi ran several red lights and finally drove to the hospital. He had searched this hospital many times, but every time he failed to see her. Was she deliberately hiding from him? And who was that man? Why did he tell him those things?

"Young Master, rest assured, he will be fine." Iron Tower set Xiao Ran down, letting him lie on the ground in a deep sleep, waiting quietly for the Young Master's instructions.

She believed firmly in what Qin Yue had said earlier, convinced that Princess Linglong was the woman her senior brother loved. Thus, she knew that if her senior brother found a way to cure the poison and returned to the Qin Capital, it would likely be the day he took Princess Linglong away.

When Qianqian returned to the hotel, she saw Yan Zhengxi already sitting in the lobby with Qi Ranxi. Her heart suddenly felt gloomy, and she smoothed her clothes before walking over unhurriedly.

As for Tianqi, she did not want to deal with it. If it were not necessary, she would absolutely not strike, provided they did not come to provoke her again.

Therefore, after hearing those words from Su Jinyan, she had no way to refuse Qin Yue's request.

These flying daggers were difficult for the other two planet-level psychics to control as well. It was highly likely that at this very moment, they were focusing their mental energy to drive the Star-Evasion Daggers in their attack.

Before the rooster crowed, just as the sky was beginning to brighten, Wen Ruixiu heard noises coming from the backyard. He had always been a light sleeper and woke up almost instantly.

Tuoye immediately glared in defiance, but upon seeing the Shangxie sword in Tie Rou's hand, he immediately became obedient.

Xia Ji was staring at Han Yue when she suddenly felt a sharp gaze directed at her, and she hurriedly lowered her head.

My mother was a paper tiger; on the surface, she seemed calm and devoid of guilt, not knowing the meaning of remorse. But the moment she encountered anyone or anything related to Lin Haixin, she would fall into a panic, becoming completely flustered and unable to decide what she needed to do.

Han Yue merely smiled and left the rest to the steward. In less than half an hour, she had offloaded most of the remaining grain, and even Lord Zhou Yi received a portion.

I shook my head. Later, it seemed someone entered my bedroom and did unforgivable things to me.

However, those two didn't seem to notice anything, but suddenly they looked at me. For some reason, as their gazes met mine, I felt a sinister premonition in my heart.
