Black Rabbit snapped its fingers, and the children fell into a perfectly straight line with military precision.

Outside the hall, the figure of a tall man slowly emerged. Backed by the halo of light behind him, he seemed to be walking toward them from afar atop a rainbow lotus. The cold, unrestrained imperial presence around him was so overwhelming that the ministers standing on either side could not help bowing deeply, too afraid to lift their heads.

The bodies of those zombies began turning red at astonishing speed. Then they stopped in their tracks, trembling faintly where they stood, while making a sound like a kettle coming to a boil.

“All right~~~” Yin Si said gloomily as he stood up and sat in my seat, the one that had originally belonged to him.

By then, Zhang Huasong had already surpassed Li Ning and become the only athlete in Huaguo to win four gold medals at a single Olympic Games.

“What, you think they can still be saved? Standing up for some idiot and insisting everyone die before they’re satisfied—keeping people like that around is just asking for trouble,” Ye Kai said coldly.

Ever since Kairuo City declared independence, important docks, ports, and transport checkpoints had been guarded by soldiers. Ordinary people did not dare speak of the leader; after all, casually talking about the leader could land one in prison. They were even less daring when it came to taking to the streets in protest. Anyone who demonstrated was treated as a capital criminal.

Forced by the situation, Berdan and the girl Li had no choice but to swim back to the mainland of the Mars Alliance Zone, planning to return to Feikangni’s home.

“Wait, no. That bastard has already armed the grenade.” The three people in the office all changed color, turning as white as paper.

The list included Chief Inspector Li Ying of Wan Chai Police Station, Senior Superintendent Zhou Xingxing of Wan Chai Police Station, Chief Inspector Qiu Zilong of Wan Chai Police Station, Chief Superintendent Zhu Biao of Tsim Sha Tsui Police Station, Chief Superintendent Le Huidong of Kowloon Police Station, Commander Xu Qisheng of the Flying Tigers, and others. All of them were staunch supporters of Xu Yifan.

“The milk is fine for soaking; I’ll soak for a while. It’ll make the skin very smooth,” Jiang Qi said with a grin as she walked around in the milk bath and slowly moved her limbs.

Outside the Thousand Mountains at Dusk and Snow Great Formation, Qin Hao, who was overseeing the array, saw the formation’s light flickering on and off, and his nerves were stretched to the limit.

“So every time, after you infer from the information I give you why your past self erased your memories, you immediately rush to the Memory Erasure Center to delete them yourself?” I exclaimed in astonishment.

I first shattered that protective barrier and took the key into my hand. Then, moving a step, I appeared before the barrier that seemed to hold an immortal artifact, and stopped. When I saw the item inside, my body went rigid.

Hu Xie and Tie Ye had just led ten thousand surviving armored troops back to the barbarian main formation when the ground shook again—General Hua Hu of the Xiao Kingdom led seventy thousand Xiao cavalry straight into the barbarian ranks.

I smiled. “That’s no problem.” On that point, I was absolutely certain. These fellows were all experts, and they also had the help of a formation. Even if they were no match for the enemy, escaping would still be possible. I had never worried about their safety.

Short hair fluttered sideways in the wind. Though she wore sunglasses, I still recognized her at a glance.

Never mind. Why think so much? Since she had already decided not to continue treatment, whether Zhou Yuanquan could be cured or not had nothing to do with her anymore.

Amid Lafar’s high-profile announcement, thunderous applause broke out from below the stage, and countless flowers were showered upon the man who was nearly fifty.

Qing Xu had thought of it before, but she had still overlooked one point: the Fiend Forest had already become her personal possession, and the Ghost King had warned her long ago that the Fiend Forest could only last for another two years at most before that barrier vanished.

In fact, if one looked closely, one would discover that the reddish-brown vines whipping toward them were not vine tendrils at all, but something resembling an octopus’s suckers—only far thicker than ordinary ones.

Only the elite among the elite were qualified to enter the final competition; everyone else was eliminated outright. And with the country’s twenty-three provinces, five autonomous regions, four municipalities, and two special administrative regions, that meant only thirty-four people could ultimately stand on the final national stage.

Returning with a rabble that only wanted to flee the battle over Celestial Canopy Star, Li Feiyun could at least be said to have forcefully intervened in the war on the Thousand Islands Star System side.

“Uncle, the silver is gone, but it can be fought for again. Why are you in such a hurry?” By then, Lady Liu no longer knew how to persuade him.

In the end, not only did he win the overall championship of the entire celebrity advancement competition, soaring from a fourth-tier star directly to a third-tier one, but through three years of effort he had already reached the ranks of second-tier stars.

When he reached the stream, scooped up a handful of water, and splashed it on his face, Wang Yi’s spirits lifted at once. The water was cool, but not cold—just right.

Mei Ruoxue hurried over. Song Yan heard the sound and opened her eyes. She sat up in a jolt, her hair in disarray, her eyes wide open, her face full of terror.

Although the process had been tortuous, and the result painfully unsatisfactory... cough, not perfect, at least the two girls had a will to improve, and Zhang Yang still found that rather heartening.

“If you dare spit on me, I’ll sell you to a roadside restaurant and have them stew you into fox meat.” The Lord of Kunlun warned her. A Li had not the slightest idea what he was saying; her thoughts had already run off to the steaming buns just out of the basket by the roadside.

“Surtr sent envoys before to persuade me to join them and declare war on the Divine Realm,” Hela replied, answering a different question altogether.

There was no time to hide now. It was too late. They could only throw everything into one gamble. Having grasped the principle of the technique, he could also use it step by step. Wang Dong followed suit, channeling spiritual power into the dagger and imitating Lin Ruoyun as he swung it.
