An Accident (Part Two)
"A bad reputation? Big sister, did that old granny do something bad?" Xia Meng asked doubtfully.
Although he had let the patriarch of the Unicorn God Clan go, he had secretly left a restriction of the Heavenly Evolution Order force on him.
"Spirit God Way, Nineteen~~ Soul Annihilation," Bai Ran gave a low cry, and his pure white soul burst out with a white radiance, followed by a succession of sounds resembling the wails of wronged ghosts emanating from within.
The owner of that voice abandoned the idea of inspecting the carriage, locked the back doors, and got into the driver's seat, preparing to depart.
Because they possessed too many promotional tools and channels, once ordinary people fell for the scam, it would take them a lifetime to make up for the losses.
Aura watched as her hands developed wrinkles around the teacup, though they remained very clean. When she began combing her hair with a bone-toothed comb, she noticed a crackling sound as her fingers passed through her locks.
The cook named Feng Xiaosong—his mother also bought a bag, but the weight of that bag of rice was truly immense, reaching a full fifty jin.
Amado trembled with anger, wishing he could directly reach out and slap Xia Meng hard across the face.
The two sides began a fierce battle, resulting in the routing of twenty thousand French troops by a Prussian army of forty thousand.
In an instant, the situation reversed, and that man fell into a position of being besieged by the two. However, he showed not the slightest panic as nine halos suddenly emerged above his head, dazzlingly bright, with countless wondrous phenomena soaring among them.
"What nonsense are you talking about? When was I jealous!" Flustered by Wang Xiu's teasing, Hua Xin's face instantly turned red, though naturally she refused to admit it.
Thus, Gao Feier brought two technological beasts along for a bout of heavy drinking. Although the Three-Tailed Beast was still a juvenile, its drinking capacity was no joke. Moreover, the beer in the City of Technology tasted just like the kind Gao Feier used to drink. Once he started drinking, it carried the taste of his hometown. So he kept drinking until he got himself drunk.
As for the others, whether it was the surrounding guards in silver and bronze armor, or the large crowd of spectator cultivators...

The only thing the Great Roc had not expected was that a challenger would suddenly burst in midway, and while completely unprepared, he was injured by Mu Kong's self-detonation of a top-grade spirit artifact.
Samadhi True Fire—that was something from legends. Even Ye Feng had only ever heard of it and had never encountered it. Yet, even without ever seeing it before, she could now be completely certain that what Mo Yun'er had condensed was indeed the Samadhi True Fire, without a shadow of a doubt.
If it hadn't been for the missing hind leg, these few True Essence Realm martial artists probably would already have perished in the wolf's jaws.
The deed was done, so why dwell on it with so much worry? Gao Feier stopped overthinking and carefully examined this unfamiliar room.
Upon reaching the top of the peak, Mo Fan felt even more strongly that this slope was a marvelous creation of nature. Looking down from above, he had a sense of overlooking all living beings, and instantly felt as though all the surrounding peaks stood a head shorter.
Chen Danqing also wore a grave expression. This place was extraordinary; even he felt his vital energy and blood severely suppressed, as if an eerie force were constantly eroding his flesh.
Without needing a menu, Su Yuxin skillfully ordered a cup of coffee and two items to eat, then began watching Jiang Han.
President Wei was a vice president in charge of the company's daily operations, and several departments, including our planning department, were under his management.
If the situation deteriorated further, Jiang Han and the others would undoubtedly capsize their boat right here. Moreover, the lake water below was already boiling. Jiang Han had investigated: this substance that looked like water might actually not be water at all, and once boiling, its temperature exceeded three hundred degrees.
The reason it felt so heavy was that I never expected my dozen or so years of marriage to end in this manner, nor did I anticipate that my hard work and dedication to this family for over a decade would ultimately yield such a chilling outcome.
Hearing me say this, Zhou Yaze sighed softly. He pulled a cigarette case from his pocket, drew out a cigarette, placed it between his lips, and slowly lit it, looking somewhat agitated.
Based on his understanding of Jiang Han, he was certain that Jiang Han could never let go of this world. He would inevitably agree to any request capable of saving it, including many that offered him no personal benefit.
However, since the Empress Dowager had already bestowed it, there was no precedent for returning it. Operating on the principle that what an elder bestows must not be declined, Sizhen gracefully handed the property deed to Huamei for safekeeping, then turned to the lower seat and bowed in gratitude to the Empress Dowager above for the reward.

Xie Fangzhi motioned for the waiter to bring me a cup of fine green tea. After the waiter withdrew, the atmosphere became somewhat awkward. Both of us remained silent, and during this lull, I secretly sized up Xie Fangzhi.
"How infuriating! She was right beneath us, crying out another man's name!" one of the men said, looking refreshed.
Scolded by me, Zhang Minglang became exceptionally well-behaved. He hurriedly scrambled up, ran into the bedroom to fetch his clothes, and went to take a shower, while I stayed outside to continue watching television.
I must admit, staying with Professor Chen by that ice platform at this moment had my heart pounding frantically.
Ding Yang was also full of tension: "Scholar Mo, a physician has the heart of a parent; you must not deceive me with falsehoods." He worried that Mo Suifeng might hold a personal grudge and fail to tell him the truth about his illness.
Distant water cannot put out a nearby fire. Even if Chen Hao possessed formidable strength, should the Wang family unexpectedly capture Shanghai, no one could predict what subsequent changes might occur. Although a single Wang family was not enough to catch Chen Hao's eye, China had always been shrouded in mystery, and no one could easily control the situation.
Now I saw it clearly: hanging above was a beast's head, with a wide mouth, sharp fangs, bulging eyes, and strange horns—it was precisely the head of that pig-bodied, sheep-headed monster.
Having offered both carrots and sticks, it was time to issue an ultimatum and prepare them psychologically, Ji Kaithought to himself.
"Make arrangements immediately; we are returning to Europe at once," Annis's gaze was sharp, contrasting starkly with her usual calm demeanor.
Tang Jian listened intently, and sure enough, in the direction of Guangxia Village to the southwest, he heard the distinctive gunfire of the 150mm 40-caliber Krupp rapid-fire guns belonging to the *Hai Chi*.
