He couldn't help but straighten his back; after being suppressed for so many years, was it finally time to show some backbone?
When did Sheng Ruiling become so bold as to express her thoughts so candidly in front of so many people?
Several vehicles seemed to be traveling through a sea of green. After driving for several kilometers, the view suddenly opened up to reveal a brand-new city under construction.
Liu Yafang was thoroughly disgusted, thinking that Liang Xiaoxiao was utterly shameless. How could she have brought someone from her hometown here?
Lu Yuqing stepped forward, standing motionless beside Shen Feng, her face covered in frost.
Before the elderly Mrs. Chu could finish her tirade, Chu Hongtian, his face flushed a deep, purplish red, pushed open the door with a complex expression.
"Can I use this blade for this technique?" With a thought, the "God-Purging Demon-Slayer" appeared directly in Zeref's hand. After merging with the unknown flame, the weapon had become one with him, no longer needing to be hung at his waist like the spectral entities.
How could Dai Yuchi endure such a shock? Just moments ago, his sister had called him for help, and now, she was gone, as was his father.
"War escalation! War escalation!" The red alarm blared in a loop through the ruined city. There was nothing left in people's eyes but despair.
Digi-Armor can be seen as identification like clothing, but a Digivice is equivalent to the key to the door of the Digital World; without the key, even with the armor, you remain locked outside.
Seeing the last remaining Yellow Turban warrior charging over, Wang Chen showed no trace of fear. He lunged forward and met the warrior’s heavy hammer head-on with a strike of his blade.
They had no chance of becoming government officials, but they could assist the authorities, offer good suggestions, or develop useful technologies. The government would buy these at high prices, which counted as political achievements for the officials, who relied on these innovations to climb the bureaucratic ladder.
Next, dust filled the air, and shadows flew everywhere. In just a moment, over two hundred thugs had been beaten into heaps, rolling on the ground and groaning in agony.

Under the automatic control of radar and sonar, the close-in weapon system immediately aimed at the next target. A violent flash of fire erupted from the muzzle as a barrage of shells flew toward the target.
Hasn't the Great Yuan Empire been denying it all along, refusing to admit that the spaceship belongs to them?
Although they were at the peak of the First-Order Spirit King realm, their spirit beasts were only of medium throne-level. Never mind two beasts, they couldn't even handle a single Demon Emperor Mushroom.
The lightning orb spat out by Chen Xiaobin collided with the golden sword with a deafening boom. The sword's aura shattered, sending Huo Xinchen flying, while Chen Xiaobin also lost his footing and stumbled back over a dozen steps.
"I don't know." Anareta shook her head, pulled a crumpled, soft piece of paper from her pocket, and handed it to me.
"Report to the President, excellent news! The Keni Kingdom and our nation have secretly signed a cooperation agreement. The first batch of twenty fighter jets has arrived with me and is waiting at the airbase," Leixi said, handing a document to Zhao Wuji.
Zhang Qiang and Peilan felt a tightness in their chests. At a time like this, how could their kingdom’s naval ships be damaged?
The students in the group complained incessantly, but no one disobeyed the leader’s orders, forcing themselves to trudge on through the exhaustion.
She then called Sister Li, her mother, and a few others she liked into the carriage. No longer waiting for the ox cart, she flicked the whip, and they sped off in a cloud of dust.
Lu Huanchuan’s eyes narrowed slowly. Aside from his trusted aides, only the Xia family, Qian Yang, and Yu Zikong’s people knew about Luo Wan’s kidnapping.
She thought the man looked decent and was well-dressed, so she assumed he had paid for a ride. She muttered to herself, thinking Lu Jiao had only claimed there was room for children to save space for paying passengers.
She also worried that if both she and Dr. Xu left, there would be no doctors in the village for any sudden illnesses, and the town was too far away to delay treatment.
Xia Qi turned over, only to suddenly feel a wetness between her legs, as if something was flowing out.

"I am the head of the household now, and my word is law. Grandfather, you are no longer in charge. Please enjoy your retirement in peace. Anything that is not your business and doesn't require your input, please do not interfere!" His stern attitude brooked no refusal.
He would not do this to a friend, as it would only tempt the greed in their hearts, but for a subordinate like Feng Yuxiu, he had to be strict.
He stood up and walked to the floor-to-ceiling window, pulling back the heavy curtains to let the morning sun flood the room with light.
Such low atmospheric pressure would cause any liquid to boil. You wouldn't want to see your own blood boiling and your veins bursting.
Ever since they first met in Tianyin City, she had disliked Chu Hen, even looking down on him.
The only difference between this and the previous lake was that the bottom here was covered with massive boulders.
Like pilots, are they not afraid of crashes? Like miners, are they not afraid of collapses?
Hosting banquets was common for the Lu family, so preparations were easy; by the afternoon, everything was ready, and guests arrived in their own vehicles.
An Yushi lowered her head, her pupils shrinking, biting her lip hard. After a long while, she squeezed out a sentence through gritted teeth: "Was this Feng Xuanyu’s idea, or hers?" She looked up sharply at Mo Ziyan; her neat bangs half-concealed eyes that shone like stars, and her slightly narrowed, deep gaze emitted a shocking intensity.
Qin Yafei felt a heavy heart. What was wrong with her friends lately? What could possibly make Yuan Yuan so unhappy?
As the space slightly distorted, Chu Hen twisted his fingers in the air. Instantly, a massive, majestic black stone tablet appeared in the void.
