Chapter 20

Lei Hu did not know what the other factions were thinking, but if he were to receive these benefits, he would certainly not handle the matter perfunctorily; he would not hesitate to completely break with Di Jun if necessary.

As for the affairs of the clans, he dared not touch them, and even his elder brother, Liu Bei, would not dare to trifle with them lightly, for doing so would invite a catastrophic disaster.

As the voice faded, steady footsteps slowly approached, and a man in silver trousers and a jet-black shirt had already walked to Qiao Yu's side.

There was always one thing she wanted to clarify, and that event happened to occur exactly during the period when she was seven or eight years old.

Although the master's wife had been ruthless enough to send her son away, deep down, she felt a heart-wrenching reluctance. She spent her days in melancholy, and combined with the damage caused by using forbidden arts, her health grew increasingly frail.

Facing them individually might be exhausting, but if they joined forces to target someone, they would certainly have the strength to put up a fight.

Seeing Chu Tianling appear before her, Tang Yusha gritted her teeth, holding herself back from rushing into his arms.

It was his mistake; he should have warned the Princess sooner. By the time he offered a warning, it was already too late. The four great guardians each possessed their own unique techniques, but they had only heard of them and had never witnessed them in person.

What is good and what is evil? With different standpoints and different outcomes, how can one distinguish right from wrong? Fortunately, Su Xiaoxiao was a person who clearly distinguished between good and evil, and she possessed her own power of judgment.

"Heh!" Peng Cheng took the money without any false modesty. He smiled shyly and said, "Why give cash directly?" His hands, however, were already counting it; the total was simple: one thousand.

To an emperor, the outcome of a battle, the fall of a great general, the tragic deaths of hundreds of thousands of soldiers, and the misery of his own people were nothing compared to the supreme power he held in his hands.

"Is it that hard to dig this time? I managed to dig up a blood stone not long ago, didn't I?" Yao Muchen looked at Shi Yitao with disbelief. In his mind, even if one couldn't find blood spirit stones, one should be able to dig up at least a few common spirit stones within two months.

"Get away, you reek of sweat! Go take a bath!" Having said this, Ding Yuhan could no longer hide her joy at seeing Wang Feng and couldn't help but laugh.

Sun Wukong mimicked Xue Ling, crossing his arms over his chest, standing on Tulage's shoulders with his feet, and leaning against Tulage's neck. He kept his eyes fixed on Heige, occasionally glancing at Xue Ling. Heige felt a slight sense of warmth and nodded gently.

Upon seeing the features of the person approaching, the hand that had been gripping a Beretta pistol inside his pocket slowly relaxed. He pulled his right hand out, glaring ferociously at the security guard before him.

The weather had been clear a few days ago, but this morning it seemed as if the day hadn't woken up yet; it was gray and dreary, lacking any vitality. This was followed by a light drizzle that started and stopped, as if teasing, which was truly vexing.

"Emperor of Great Qin, we meet again." The Holy Empress spoke first, a hint of triumph in her eyes.

"How dare you!" Yao Muchen grew anxious. With a wave of his hand, five flying arrows whistled toward the giant black eagle. The arrows produced a sharp sound as they pierced the air, instantly catching up to the menacing bird. *Swish!* The five arrows passed right through, pulling a long trail of blood mist that bloomed in the sky.

"Close the door, then you open it," Han Xiao said. As the pilot was about to act, he slashed with his military knife, severing the pilot's trachea. With a pull, he tossed the man behind him as if he were a paper doll.

Yuan Zhenxia knew that Xi Taining’s constant requests for his help were not because he was a doctor, but because he possessed many experiences that ordinary people lacked.

Zhang Shouzhi naturally would not overlook this; the feed used was entirely biodegradable organic matter. He did not use any inorganic fertilizers or chemical agents like antibiotics; it was completely environmentally friendly and biodegradable.

This green light was likely the seal of the "Jade Fire Flowing Fluorescence" spell. Li Xun could only be considered to have a rough understanding of the spell-casting lineage, so he could not discern its mysteries, but he could confirm that this box was indeed what Lady Yan sought.

Later on, Li Xun simply made a bag to carry Blood Kiss, leaving only its head exposed, and used earth-escape to travel together.

The sound waves penetrated heaven and earth, reaching everywhere, and miles away, the expressions of Li Xun and Shui Dielan turned deathly cold.

Hearing Chen Ying’s voice, Lin Yuxuan instinctively pushed Wu Kai away. She sat up from the bed quickly, her face flushed so red it seemed as if blood would seep out. Overcome with shame, she wished she could find a hole to crawl into, looking down and fidgeting with the hem of her clothes, not knowing what to do.

Seconds later, a giant humanoid figure radiating extreme heat and bright red light appeared in the eyes of the Drow.

He stood with his arms crossed, signaling You Yi to retreat, and remained silent. The power in the Demon Phoenix's eyes gradually weakened. Finally, she slowly flew over. The scorching murderous intent from before had completely retracted, but as she drew closer, Li Xun seemed to be able to hear the hiss of frustration surging in the depths of her heart.

If any active doctor did not know the name of that burly Western old man or had never seen his photograph, it would be as inconceivable as a professional Go player not knowing Lin Haifeng.

The divine arts bestowed upon believers by every deity carried their own unique aura, even if the divine arts themselves were the same.

The hospital was brightly lit, and Zhang Qiu's surgery was about to begin. Li Dabizi changed into surgical scrubs and walked into the preparation room. Two nurses came over to wheel Zhang Qiu's hospital bed toward the operating room. Zhang Qiu's parents had tears in their eyes, their hearts aching. Wang Fan followed the bed into the operating room but was blocked by a tall nurse.

Faintly, one could see many pseudo-demon corpses churning, roaring, and howling in the trenches. They had been knocked out by the bottom of the massive warship as it sailed forcefully through, but they were powerless against the behemoth and could only watch as it moved away.

Li Zhe also stood up silently. He was sitting right next to Yu Hao. He patted Yu Hao on the shoulder without a word.

Zhang Shaozhu glanced at Ye Qing, and Ye Qing responded with his eyes. Their thoughts were aligned once again: since they were corrupt officials, they would certainly behave like corrupt officials. Besides that place, where else could it be?

After all, those fragments not only contained Xu Tian's force but also a trace of immortal energy. Immortal energy was a power far superior to their own magical power and could not be easily expelled from the body.
