Chapter 17: Group Meeting and Another Front-Page Feature in the Journal?

Upon hearing the Grand Chancellor’s command, the guards in the room immediately brandished their weapons and surrounded Zhan Xiu.

"Then let’s go this afternoon." Tu Baobao did not want the matter of the evening gown to be delayed.

"Is it over already?" Lin Hao reached out and grabbed the short sword, and as he moved, the interface vanished.

The cave was vast and deep, filled with all manner of strange and curious objects that left Ji Fa wide-eyed. Even the legendary practice of knot-tying for record-keeping was prominently utilized here.

Xu Yaran picked the pillow up from the floor, returned to the bed, propped it under her head, and went back to sleep.

"Yu, when did you get back?" The two brothers walked to a hill on the edge of the training grounds, and Gu Fan asked with a look of surprise.

Brother Hao, since when did Mei’er become so repulsive in your eyes?

"Hold out your hand." There was a trace of an irresistible command in Nangong Yuhan’s voice, leaving Tu Baobao unsure of how to refuse his "unreasonable" request. In the end, as if possessed, she extended her hand.

"Crown Prince Xinkuang, we have fought all the way from Fengyu Pass without suffering a single defeat. With the Minglong Empire in civil turmoil, it seems they truly have no intention of defending their borders. I am certain we can take Rain City in one fell swoop tonight," Yun Lie said confidently.

"Fine, see you tomorrow." A flicker of warmth crossed Lu Yifan’s frost-cold eyes, though his tone remained indifferent.

Realizing there was nowhere left to hide, Jiang Yifei abandoned his previously immovable stance and soared into the sky. A scorching flame enveloped him, transforming him into a furnace. The object was filled with an inexplicable mystery, its crimson body slamming fiercely into the descending star-like hand.

Back in the bedroom and lying on the bed, Xiao Zhi closed his eyes, and his consciousness re-entered the World of All Living Things.

"The quality of this staff is really poor; it cracked after shattering a single divine ability!" Throwing the broken half of the staff aside, Nie Yu sighed imperceptibly. He finally understood why Ye Fan preferred to resolve fights with his fists! To break all techniques with a single punch was indeed simple and straightforward.

Even when he attempted to do that to her, she had merely dismissed it as a moment of impulse.

He was, at the very least, a Foundation Establishment practitioner now; he could absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and go ten or eight days without food. Why would he be hungry?

Her slender neck felt like a fragile bamboo shoot in Zong Jinghao’s grip, one that would snap with the slightest pressure.

The smile on Pang Bo’s face vanished instantly as he looked at Nie Yu. Zhu Yulin’s words were incisive; without having embarked on the path of cultivation, Ye Fan was like a beggar guarding a treasure mountain while starving.

Furthermore, the lamps hanging along the edges of the buildings would flicker with neon light as night fell and the city lights came on.

"Could it be that you’ve had too much to drink, Xiaomai?" Wei Dingjun said with a chuckle, patting Li Xiaomai on the shoulder.

"Thank you, Young Master Mo." The cook looked at Mo Ying with profound gratitude, as if he were her great savior.

After dropping these words, Jiang Hua walked straight toward the public restroom in the temple. In truth, he was not there to relieve himself, but rather to find an excuse to escape the gaze of the crowd and enter the ancient well to ask the White Dragon what was actually happening.

Seeing the situation, the Dragon King waved his command flag, striking first to gain the advantage. "Kill!" the Shark Commander roared, issuing the order. The aquatic soldiers, led by their respective generals, launched a fierce assault on the Heavenly Court’s army.

"By the way, Teacher Elena, could you teach me how to meditate as a mage? I need strong mental power to tame magical beasts, and meditation is the most effective way to increase it." Darui looked at Elena with great anticipation.

Although the hospital strictly prohibited smoking, he was not a man who followed rules, and he took out a cigarette and took a drag.

Upon hearing this, the guards filed out, closing the door behind them.

He gestured to a faint, obscure path nearby and said, "This route can avoid the marked areas."

Eager to decide the outcome, Darui drew two more arrows and fired them without giving Yulia a chance to catch her breath.

In reality, Li Mulin’s coldness was not because he held a grudge against Meng Xiaohao, but because Meng Xiaohao’s progress had been so immense that Li Mulin could not process it in such a short time. Li Mulin had been training exceptionally hard during this period, but compared to Meng Xiaohao, it was hardly worth mentioning.

"What do we do, Dragon King?" The two dragon kings, seeing that the situation had turned, could no longer remain calm and asked the Dragon King in unison.

After that incident, I only felt a bit sore and achy, and was fine after resting for two days. Qin Xiong, however, despite his strong build, fell bedridden with a high fever, and the barefoot doctors were all helpless. Medical conditions were poor back then, and it panicked Qin Xiong’s parents.

After Zhou Rui died, his power was terrifyingly strong. If it could be used by Tian Feifei’s family, it would surely help her ascend to control the Nine Provinces.

I sighed inwardly and could only comply by putting on the groom’s attire and combing my hair back.

"And what if I say I refuse?" Xi Miaoyin looked at Mo Linyuan opposite her with an inscrutable smile.

The students of Class 2 were so insulted their souls felt as if they had left their bodies. Unable to bear it any longer, they forgot why the five muscular men had come and quickly selected their five strongest students.

Mo Xiao was currently reviewing the people she had selected; she could not let things be interrupted just because Gu Lingjin had returned; she had to persevere.

"Regiment Commander, I hope you like this grand gift I left behind as I departed." Yumiko smiled and exited the room.

Seeing this, Yuan Kui could no longer restrain himself. Furious, he kicked the door open with a loud "bang" and charged inside.

At the very peak of this mountain grew a single flower. Amidst the biting cold wind, it had not withered; instead, it bloomed even more brilliantly.

At first, I thought the police officer was just asking about the condoms casually, but I later discovered that was not the case at all.

The Cao family had no maidservants and no long-term attendants. Once Magistrate Cao died, only Cao Sheng, his mother, and his wife remained.

Lin Tea opened her mouth, but in the end, she swallowed the harsh words and merely patted her back gently.

At the Snow Leopard Entertainment building, the contestants had no signal and no internet. They would only be able to watch the playback after they left, so they could only guess at the show’s impact for now.

This was a world where strength dictated everything. If you were even slightly weak, you would be bullied. It did not matter if he was bullied, but his wife was behind him; he had to stand like a lone axe guarding the pass.
