The faces of numerous factions darkened. Suddenly, they felt that their previous actions were naive. Who on earth disregarded the rules and directly shattered the unspoken conventions of so many years?
"What else can we do? Naturally, we follow the instructions," the master of the Heavenly Demon Sect spoke up first.
"Eh, Mother, what's wrong with Dad? Why isn't he speaking or moving?" Nianlang asked fearlessly, continuing to press on.
Feng Honglie's deep, dark gaze locked with Feng Xie's. Feng Xie looked like a cornered, snarling beast—wild and violent—and at this moment, Feng Honglie was clearly his enemy in his eyes.
A tear suddenly slipped from Song Xiangsi's eyes. The corners of her lips curved slightly upward, and without any warning, she suddenly stood on tiptoe and pressed her lips to his.
"After you finish eating, come with me for a bit." She would go buy him clothes later and bring a tape measure so she wouldn't end up buying clothes that didn't fit, which wouldn't do at all.
As for Qian Ren, that hard, burning heat almost scorched her. Like a frightened bird, she immediately stared at Qian Ren in utter astonishment. Didn't he say they were going to sleep? Why was he still in such a state?
A-Mo hid behind the Qinghua Pavilion near the rockery to cool off, her knees bent as she leaned sideways against the corridor pavilion, resting her back against the vermilion pillar and closing her eyes to rest.
Occupying a high position, Wei Jinxian would not harbor deep hostility toward an insignificant fourth-rank subordinate official or repeatedly attempt to take her life.
Taoist magic? Xie Yixiang's doubts grew even stronger. If Taoism truly possessed any magical arts, they must certainly be wielded by Taoist priests of extremely high attainment—at the very least, immortals-like masters such as the Daoist Master Xiyi or Hai Yisu. Yet, this ill-tempered, handsome young man right before her actually dared to claim he knew Taoist magic?
The Asura Wings of Light uncontrollably emerged, adding yet another color. Bai Luo frowned and retracted the Asura Wings of Light, though he did not worry overly much.
Nearly half of Cao's camp was destroyed. Fortunately, the moment the soldiers saw Lü Bu leap down, they fled in all directions, so casualties were not heavy.
After all, Ling Lan was currently in seclusion healing her injuries and had entrusted everything to the three of them. If they couldn't even handle this little matter, where would they find any good rewards?
"Amitabha, you demonic cultivators truly are creatures devoid of civilization, ignorant of human etiquette!" True Lotus Buddha Lord shook his head, the undisguised disdain in his gaze fully exposed.

Yang Jian was a massive variable. He might seem stubborn, but in reality, his stance was easily swayed. Had it not been for this, he would not have been persuaded by the Queen Mother to deal with Monkey King after A-Zi's death, only to ultimately turn his weapons against the Queen Mother under Monkey King's persuasion.
"For now, I will still call you Wuxuan. Wuxuan, was the second half of what you just said meant sincerely in your heart?" Su Wan'er said softly, her delicate voice accompanied by blinking, beautiful eyes carrying a trace of hopeful anticipation.
"Humph humph, you've already lured away the students from our academy. Professor Lu has complained to me several times, saying such a fine sapling for traditional Chinese painting was spirited away by you, and it's all my fault for bringing you to the Central Academy of Fine Arts," Professor Sun said.
Yue Lan looked at Wu Di and saw his face was pale, his teeth clenched tightly as if enduring some indescribable agony. A look of worry also surfaced in her lovely eyes.
Xiao Jin's gaze remained fixed on Shen Jing, a look that in the end seemed as though it would tear the person before him to pieces.
Perhaps there still lingered a shred of gratitude toward Xiao Jin and Unit 519 in his heart. However, this emotion was gradually fading away.
Following Gan Ning's shout, Su Fei instinctively stepped aside, and several soldiers quickly rushed forward to protect him.
He was merely bluffing and intimidating others. An internship contract carried a damn breach-of-contract penalty; the severest punishment was nothing more than terminating the internship. If he had genuinely stolen something from the firm, that would be called theft rather than a breach of regulations, falling directly under the jurisdiction of Gu Tianyou's colleagues.
Huang Yi and Huang Er fell unanimously silent on the side—to state it so bluntly, the thickness of Fox Sovereign's skin was truly beyond the reach of mere mortals like them.
Afterward, she gracefully stepped out of the back garden. Cold Arrow True Monarch probably had matters to discuss with Lin Cheng upon this visit. Although Lin Cheng would not keep things from her, Cold Arrow True Monarch might have his own thoughts, so Fairy Chilian decided to leave and give them an environment for a deep conversation.
A long spear thrust out from Lin Cheng's shoulder as the warhorse charged right up to him. At that exact moment, Lin Cheng whipped around, slamming his remaining right shoulder violently into the horse's skull.
At this, many of the generals and tribal commanders in the tent could not help revealing looks of curiosity, appearing completely unable to understand what Taimuo Ruoshuang and the giant were saying. Guan Yu, however, maintained a calm expression.
As for Quasi-Sages like Hongyun, Kunpeng, Minghe, and Houtu, they were even more ecstatic. A discourse on the Dao by the sages was tantamount to personally lecturing them on the Dao. How could they not be overjoyed?
Han Sha said with a smile that this dish was not something one could easily eat on a whim; it always required booking two days in advance to enjoy.

The man cupped his hands in salute while uttering greetings such as bowing, folding the hands, or making an obeisance. For instance: "Greetings, Elder Brother, where are you coming from?" The three methods were not vastly different; by comparison, the formal bow was perhaps somewhat more polite.
"You're quite interesting yourself. Consider me; I can also be considered a rather good marriage prospect." When such a teasing remark was spoken by Fang Bin in all seriousness, it truly left people not knowing whether to laugh or cry.
"Not at all. Doctors save lives and heal the wounded, making them the most respected of all," Jin Baoer praised, following his lead.
Madam Wang only felt wronged. Just as she was about to argue a few points, she caught sight of Madam Cao opposite her looking at her with a half-smile. Over the past few days, she had convinced herself she had accomplished her task, coming to the matriarch's quarters every single day to boast and claim credit while relentlessly squeezing out Madam Cao. Now, if she were to claim she had never been to the Zou family, she truly could not bring herself to say it.
Fu Yunxi let out a breath of relief and said, "Fortunately it's not Tan Xia. If it were her, I genuinely wouldn't know what to do." She suddenly thought of the matter concerning the Soul-Suppressing Tree. Come to think of it, it was they who had released it; no wonder the Holy Emperor suspected Mei Yan of being the Demon Lord. Fortunately, Mei Yan was not, otherwise the consequences would have been unimaginable.
Anxiety welled up in Fu Yunxi's heart. It turned out her greatest adversary was neither Consort Xian nor Consort De, but the Empress Dowager.
"If he weren't following behind me, he'd already be taken away by the Sichuan Provincial Public Security Department to be executed by firing squad," Lang Xie smiled, feeling satisfied that Ning Jingcheng had so quickly won the preliminary approval of this group of die-hard followers in such a short time.
"Seventh Brother? I want to stay with you," Zhou Yan'er said with reddened eyes and a wronged expression.
Xiangqiao hurried over upon hearing the sound, but no sooner had she run inside than she was knocked unconscious by a flower vase falling from above. That was a trap devised by Qin Mingzhu, originally meant to guard against outsiders, but Xiangqiao had forgotten all about it in her haste.
After she left, if she truly never returned, would he have to continue waiting right where he was? Even though he seemed to have said many times that as long as she didn't run too far away, it would feel as though he could find her again with just a single turn around.
