Volume 1, Chapter 58: Grandson Swears on His Honor
Riding in a modified Land Rover, Shi Tian drove recklessly all the way into the city district. This was an area unfamiliar to Shi Tian, and Luo Panlong had never been here either.
"The third-floor villa... in the room on the right," Chen Baozhen said with a voice drained of all strength. In front of the military, he dared not resist, nor was there any way he could resist; the only thing he could do was comply.
"I am leaving again, and I will no longer step into your world," Ji Cui murmured softly, her eyes carrying a hint of lingering reluctance.
Ma Lie, standing nearby, remained silent with a smiling expression on his face, showing no intention of returning the Melting Water Bead either.
In truth, anyone could see that the defense attorney was merely making a desperate argument driven by desperation, yet everyone also knew that neither side possessed conclusive evidence, which was why they remained deadlocked.
At this moment, Shi Tian had once again left the settlement. This time, he had no specific destination in mind, simply picking a direction at random and moving forward.
Yang Yanzhao cast a cold glance at Zhang Yi, then pushed hard with both hands, forcing Ying Xuan to take a few steps back.
Seeing the iron door, the scar-faced man strode over and kicked it squarely. While the strength of a third-tier mutant was not enough to smash the iron door open, destroying the lock was a simple matter.
Although Song Qingxiang spoke as if he were simply waiting to die, he was actually trying his utmost to control the power within his body, attempting to calm the destructive energy absorbed from the source of the virus.
Qi Chengyu's mouth twitched slightly. What does "supposed to be" mean? Whatever happened to immortal sect disciples valuing their sect above all else?
When he received the divorce decree from the command headquarters, watching her sign it without the slightest hesitation, he had once addressed her in that very same manner.
His body began to move on its own accord. Sun Shuo suddenly leaped forward, delivering a fierce punch straight to Dr. He's chest, while his eyes already betrayed an expression of extreme panic.
To put it simply, the corpse and the ancient tree had cleverly merged into one, reaching a state of mutualistic symbiosis that was inseparable. It was nearly impossible to separate the remains and the burial objects from it.
"I already said, you can make the decisions regarding matters within the sect," Gu Yue glared at him. "Besides, he's not even my disciple, why are you asking me? Ask her instead!" With that, she directly pointed at the person standing nearby.
Indeed, only after witnessing with one's own eyes Ares taking the enemy general's head from amidst a million soldiers could one truly understand what kind of shock that represented.
Liu Bin shook his head. To be honest, his inner state at that moment was on the verge of collapse... yet he refused to believe he would lose. He thought to himself: That guy doesn't know how to dribble... and his shooting is inaccurate either; I just need to play tight defense against him.
Murong Rui went to arrange the tasks entrusted to him by Tang Xia. When he returned by coincidence, he happened to overhear this conversation, and his face instantly darkened as he took it completely seriously.
The expressions of the group relaxed instantly as they pulled out their storage pouches and began taking out spiritual stones, occasionally casting stealthy glances toward the few people in the center.
Village Chief Zhang doted on Zhang Aihua with a hidden motive. Zhang Aihua was pretty, and he planned to raise her well so she could be of use later. Even if she didn't quite meet Village Chief Zhang's expectations, getting fifty liang in return by marrying her off wouldn't be bad either.
Her exquisite lips possessed a rosy sheen, and their perfect curve looked breathtaking no matter how one looked at them. Although her lips were pressed tightly together at the moment, they still parted slightly due to her rising anger.
Tang Tang, who was being carried by Tang Qi, grew even stiffer. What she wanted was the Tang family's sound-attack technique to deal with Night Scenery, but this Tang Qi kept changing the subject every single time.
Xu Feng did not offer much explanation. For someone who wasn't even in the office or paying attention to job applicants during work hours, Xu Feng felt little inclination to understand him further.
Ling Jiu's Prince's Mansion was actually an immensely massive treehouse. Viewed from the exterior, it appeared to be a millennium-old ancient tree with lush branches and foliage.
Ye Fantian's expression changed slightly, and he instinctively moved to parry, only to discover that his own movements were completely incapable of keeping up with the opponent's speed. Realizing the man's profound strength, Ye Fantian's understanding of the situation deepened accordingly.
The Dragon Prince's face turned ashen and gloomy, with a sullen demeanor so dark it seemed as though water could drip from it.
The lair of the scar-faced man and his cohorts was not far from here. Even so, Xu Feng tracked them for quite a while. The wild grasses and tangled branches along the path tore his clothes. Xu Feng truly wished he were wearing a military uniform at that moment, as fighting in this jungle clad in one would be far more comfortable.
This had always been the established rule: regardless of which country His Imperial Majesty traveled to, he was always permitted to bring a large number of powerful experts along with him.
First-tier supreme powers would treat a young Saint Martial Artist like a precious treasure held in the palm of their hand, yet these super clans dared to dispatch them into the lower realm to execute missions without the slightest hesitation.
The development of modern science had propelled human genetics and regenerative science forward by leaps and bounds. On the battlefield, as long as surgery was timely and proper, even major organ damage or limb amputation offered a chance to regenerate anew—provided, of course, that one had sufficient wealth.
Her body was maintained at the bare minimum survival standard, which meant her reproductive system—having no real utility for mere survival—was simply cast aside.
Right now, the strength of the three of them was not much different from that of ordinary people. Ten was the maximum baseline value for humans, representing the physical fitness a normal adult ought to possess.
The long-haired ghoul cried out in alarm: "Boss, what, what about that mysterious weapon? None of us even know how to use it. Once Niu Tie finds that girl Feier, we'll already be completely finished."
After washing his face and coming out, Li Mingyou had already dished out the porridge and placed it on the dining table, alongside several pastries that Zhu Muyi loved to eat.
Some cultivators were struck by the streams of water, causing their bodies to burst apart instantly. The elderly man watching from the side changed his expression; if the boat were destroyed, he too would not be spared. With a grimace, the elderly man gritted his teeth, leaped into the air, and joined the battle.
"Qi-grade martial arts?" Lu Chenghfeng was slightly surprised, thinking to himself with a hidden sigh that the Divine Wind Academy indeed possessed Qi-grade martial arts. Although this was merely a transcribed copy, it was still immensely precious.
Chu Shaoying was a stern and unsmiling man, a trait identical to his father Chu Mu. However, this demeanor was only reserved for outsiders; with family and close acquaintances, he was entirely different.
Lei Yunting had half a pastry hanging from his mouth as he glanced toward the doorway. Growing somewhat impatient, he stepped forward as soon as Yan Ziyue emerged and said, "It's been a while..."
"Hehe, we're finally entering the final script," You muttered with a giggle, saying things that made little sense.
Such was the strength of a formal knight. Aside from external gear like weapons and armor, it was essentially nothing more than a combination of physical fitness and combat techniques. As for special skills and spells, those were hardly things they could execute without any transcendent power.
