All right.

Jing Li could hardly contain her excitement at the prospect of getting close to Shen Liangyan, perhaps even spending an intimate night with him. The sooner the rice is cooked, the better—when will you arrange it? Xu Yu's almond-shaped eyes flashed with a shadowy light. Very soon. Although Xu Yu escaped danger this time, it didn't mean she could always slip out of the Wen family's grasp.

She boarded...

Shan Ya glanced at the elevator on her left, blinking in confusion. Had she gotten into the wrong elevator? Aren’t elevators just for people to ride? Did it really matter which one she took?

The two of them lay quietly side by side on the same bed, needing no words to sense each other's presence. That feeling was wonderful—sweetness unfurling in her heart.

[Guild] No Negotiation, Just Killing: Wow! Am I seeing things? Boss, you're actually online! Where’s the lady boss? Why don’t I see her? Did you two retreat into the mountains to live as wild hermits?

Meanwhile, Yin Xiangdong fled to America with a huge sum of money. Cao Hu had intended to execute Gu Changbei as well, but hadn’t expected Gu Changbei to be so much more formidable than he’d imagined.

Lin Hao followed the direction of the voices, making his way forward until he reached the end of a long corridor.

He sat quietly, keeping her company. Her head rested on his shoulder, her gentle breath caressing his cheek. After a long while, his warm voice drifted into her ear.

“I truly bear no hatred for anyone, not even the late emperor. Because before, the late emperor already apologized to me for it, though back then I didn’t know the whole story.” I glanced at Yuan Zhixun beside me, suddenly feeling as though our roles had reversed, as if I were the one comforting him now.

“You certainly have your hands full over here. Over where we are, life can go on as usual, especially up in our mountains—there’s hardly anything happening at all,” Luo Chenyu remarked. Still, thinking about all the chaos, it was exhausting.

High in the air, a whistling wind tore through the sky as a cone of soul power from the Boundary shot like a shadow, smashing straight into the soul power barrier.

Those who had come to offer sacrifices were already terrified by the earlier chaos, fleeing in all directions. The stench surged forward, and those who hadn’t yet escaped collapsed to the ground the moment their eyes rolled back, their mouths foaming.

In truth, she didn’t like her mother at all, always feeling her mother was biased and only had eyes for her brother. But she didn’t care—after all, Grandpa was the real authority in the family and he doted on her the most. Hmph, so what if her mother didn’t love her? Having Grandpa’s affection was more than enough.

Yet, even the Heaven Incinerator seemed weak—after just a few breaths, it was already subdued by the enemy.

Overwhelmed, Bai Xing burst into loud sobs, her tears soaking the earth beneath her.

Zhang Wuchen sat on a stool by the window. Last night, he, too, had vied for the jade pendant, but hadn’t been foolish enough to go all in. He’d hovered at the periphery, hoping to seize an opportunity, but in the end, came away empty-handed—though at least he wasn’t seriously injured.

Panic still etched on his face, Cheng Kui, upon seeing Ye Mo appear, immediately fled in another direction. Now, with his suspicious behavior exposed, the enemies no longer held back—missiles, rocket launchers, high-energy bombs, laser beams, space-based weaponry, and even antimatter explosives all rained down on that area.

“Heh! Don’t worry! Killing is nothing new to us!” The leader glanced coldly at the other three, his tone icy.

The rattan-armored soldiers, encased in woven armor, could stand their ground against cavalry. They had no fear of the Wokou archers—raising their rattan shields to cover their faces, they charged forward with heads down. Arrows rained down, clinking harmlessly off the armor, leaving few wounded.

Chen Yuanshan’s face was covered with an awkward grin, feeling genuinely ashamed at being chastised by his ‘good brother.’

“Let’s explore this cave!” Sensing the cavern’s mystery, Zhou Shan made up his mind.
