Dai Mubai spoke with such absolute conviction that there was no room for doubt.
His gaze was so resolute, one would think he was about to join the Party.
“Fine. It’s a deal. Whoever goes back on their word is a little dog!”
Zhu Zhuqing was no less determined.
In any case, she could never regret this decision.
A man like that—whoever wanted him could have him. She certainly did not.
Tang Nian-nian did not think much of him either.
For the two of them to say such things in front of everyone meant that they had truly and completely broken with each other.
Xiao Wu was in the midst of—
Huan Ying’s steps faltered, and she fell to the ground. Jin Xin, however, showed not the slightest trace of pity. His eyes were filled with nothing but icy chill.

Confusion filled Zhang Wei’s long, narrow phoenix eyes, and deep within them lurked a hint of fear.
If the fifty thousand soldiers under Yang Jian were of the same caliber as Liang’s army when it entered Shu, Yang Jian would have nothing to worry about. But now, it was impossible for him to claim that he was unconcerned.
She reached out with her slender jade finger and tapped Harry lightly on the forehead. Though her tone carried a trace of reproach, the smile on her face was extraordinarily gentle.
Lin Ruo spoke up. They had been moving forward all this time, and Sha Yi’s strength was far greater than his own. Even from such a considerable distance, he had already sensed the killing intent.
Elsewhere, Liu Bei, Sun Ce, and Liu Biao joined forces to attack Runan. Within two months, Yuan Shu’s Great Cheng Kingdom was destroyed, his family ruined, and Yuan Shu himself, defeated in battle, took his own life.
Hearing the deafening roar, Ivankov had no intention of being courteous. Unless these vicious fellows were intimidated, they would never quiet down.
Some even ran to the side of the ship and prepared to jump overboard. But when they saw the raging current beneath the hull, they realized that if they leaped down and collided with the current, their bodies would be like eggs striking a rock. The inevitable result would be utter destruction. The criminals swallowed hard, drenched in sweat, and retreated.
The third rumor could be regarded as the cause of the first two. After all, the previous two were somewhat abrupt. There were plenty of greedy people in the world, but they had never seen anyone as avaricious as Madam Qin. Members of wealthy and powerful families would conceal such matters, even if something truly had happened. To act so openly instead made the whole affair seem unreal, as though someone had deliberately spread slander.
If that fellow had not been a terrorist who killed without blinking, she would certainly have taken the opportunity to describe her relationship with Thornfruit Euonymus in deliberately ambiguous terms—just enough to make him misunderstand and stew in jealousy, and to let him know that she was highly sought after, with countless men to choose from even without him.
“Brother, after he captured you, did he threaten your life and force you to agree to help him deal with the Qi God Hall?” Luo Yundong asked.

When he had set out this time, his eagerness to save someone was certainly genuine, but he had also entertained the thought of making a name for himself throughout the universe. After all, the great figures of his sect had always praised the vital energy of heaven and earth as something almost miraculous, as though mastering it would allow one to defeat every opponent in the entire universe.
The instant Ouyang Qian finished speaking, a murderous aura suddenly surged across the empty ground. A dark figure strode toward the center of the field from the distance, boundless killing intent roiling around that slightly slender form.
Hearing his words, the people around them learned that He Ruozhi was a native of Earth and could not help laughing softly.
“Are you cold?” The great demon king who had just threatened to tear her muscles from her bones and flay her alive had suddenly transformed into a gentle and considerate gentleman.
“Heh heh, don’t be afraid. I only want to learn a little about the pirates on the sea. I heard from Qian Xing that you used to work in that trade, so I called you here to ask a few questions.” As he spoke, Li Dong poured Niu Huang a cup of tea.
From a medical perspective, the operation was feasible. It was nothing more than a heart transplant. But the “heart” Ouyang Qianyu intended to replace was no ordinary heart. It could be said to be the one and only heart in the entire world.
Qin Yang suspected that the Blood Demon Sect had learned the scope of his activities and had therefore posted this information on Snow Clam Island.
On the other side, the urging abruptly ceased. He, too, suddenly realized the problem. The Ironclad Dragon had completely lost control, burning through its life force and spirit to transform into a gigantic monster. How could it possibly be awakened so easily?
