29 Teppanyaki Octopus
Before the old gatekeeper could finish his sentence, a fierce gust of wind brushed past his ear and struck the door pillar. Terrified, the old man clutched his ears and curled into a ball on the ground, fearing another strike might follow.
"Didn't we already agree to head back last time? Whether we return sooner or later, the timing makes no difference." With that, he began dialing Nangong Linyi's number.
Xin Kan urged anxiously, "Your Majesty, if this happens, then our affairs..." He glanced at Wanyan Zonghan, but not daring to continue, he lowered his head and looked submissively at Wanyan Sheng and Wanyan Zongwang.
Li Zhichen bit his tongue, tears streaming down his face. Suddenly, he spat a mouthful of blood toward the heavens, spraying it directly onto the grave. Swaying, he sat down, clutching the tombstone and staring at the inscriptions carved upon it.
The giant wolf let out a shrill howl before its body completely disintegrated, leaving not a shred of life behind. The ground was covered in a thick mess of mangled flesh and blood, reeking of a foul, metallic stench.
"So that's how it is. No wonder you chose to do it this way," Ma Tiancheng nodded, then turned his gaze toward the Bing father and son.
From the corner of his eye, Bing Shaofeng noticed Long Jianfei’s look of disdain. Though he felt a flicker of fear, he reasoned that in a setting like this, it was just a game. He and his father shared the same sentiment: since you have come, you aren't leaving.
Finally, his lips moved away from the corner of her mouth, tenderly and lingeringly kissing away the tears at the corners of her eyes.
"As long as I take the first step, the road ahead will be easier to walk!" Chen Yu whispered to herself, offering a word of encouragement.
The group was led inside by a tour guide to a large stage area featuring interactive platforms for the audience. The transgender performers here were incomparable to those elsewhere; not only were they beautiful, but they also possessed stunning figures.
For hundreds of years, the Chu Kingdom had withstood the combined forces of the three demon realms; the Chu army was naturally no trivial adversary, but a genuine, battle-hardened elite force.
It was not just the greyhounds; the aristocratic disciples practicing in seclusion on Zhaoyao Mountain also turned pale upon sensing the sword light, immediately ending their meditation.
Such a city was a place where merchants could fill their coffers, and wanted criminals felt that even the authorities were too lazy to bother with those hiding within its walls.
No one requested validation for the feasibility of the new technique; by this day, Chen Qi’s authority in this field was beyond question.
He had visited Su Beiyang’s home not long ago. At the time, he felt Su Beiyang’s mental state seemed worse than before, but he could not figure out why Su Beiyang had suddenly died.
Seeing him resting against her belly, Nie Qingqing felt her heart soften, and she spoke without thinking.
In light of this, Qianyuan decided to have Ziyu lead the Imperial Guard division. This way, he would respect Ziyu’s desire to remain in the military while ensuring she could stay in Zhaoyao City for the long term.
"You said you liked me, you said you wanted to marry me—you scared me to death!" Wang Xudong said with a straight face.
Long Fei spoke politely, well aware that if he wanted to earn enough energy stones, joining a team like He Qingyun’s was his only chance.
Wang Chen let out a sudden shout. One had to realize that there were countless Xiantian-realm masters throughout Yanjing now. Having just learned from Cui Yue that Yanjing was even more chaotic back then, it implied there were likely even more Xiantian masters at that time than there were today.
On a mountain slope, Shui Mulan let the darkness envelop her, curling up on a rock and succumbing to an uncontrollable sense of sorrow.
He raised an eyebrow and tilted his head to look at me, a roguish, almost shameless smile playing on his lips, yet he looked exceptionally handsome nonetheless.
"Wait, the source of an element should be able to enhance Five-Element Crystals, right?" Ye Haochuan’s eyes suddenly lit up as he took out the water-element source he had gathered along the way.
After the reinforcements were defeated, the morale of the Quansan garrison collapsed, and they soon chose to surrender. The Wu army seized 150,000 shi of grain in the process.
The old gentleman pondered for a moment, then looked up and said softly, "Yaoye and I will go with you. I don't know what the current situation is, and I fear it might be a trap."
However, what left Ye Haochuan speechless was that the Evil Fire Golden Phoenix was clearly on high alert, even leaving five or six Heavenly Venerate-realm masters behind to guard the clan.
Regrettably, although Yang Wo could choose when to launch this Northern Expedition, he could not determine when it would end—that decision rested with Zhu Wen.
"Shall we go back?" Lin Feng held Li Wan gently, whispering softly into her ear.
This tour had lasted less than two months and covered little ground, yet he felt profoundly exhausted. It made him realize he was no longer the young man who could "lift three hundred catties and travel three hundred miles a day."
Thinking of this, I couldn't help but feel a secret regret. If I had known the old immortal valued me so much, I would have bought more things. Even if I had emptied his stall, he would only have thought I possessed a sharp eye for talent, wouldn't he?
Directly above the large bowl stood a white statue of a middle-aged man holding a long spear. Beneath his feet lay a strange demon beast—a creature with the body of a tiger, the head of a snake, and the claws of an eagle. It was a long-extinct species known as the Hunyuan Demon.
Li Yong sighed helplessly as he spoke of this. Although life in Fengqing Prefecture was bitter, the magistrate's office had no perks and was constantly kept under the thumb of those people.
"Want to die? It’s not that easy." Zhou Feiyang’s eyes narrowed, and a grey-white aura flashed, landing on the ugly man, Lu Jingze.
