Volume One, Chapter 36: You Want to Protect Her—You?

In short, it seems to be a strange ability brought about by a genius for swordsmanship, which is also how Wei Qing was able to use an item in time to evade that roar from the Ox General.

Thinking this way, Mu Chen realized that his real difficulty was the height; the banyan branch was about five meters off the ground. Even though Wanyan Cao had hung down a section, it was still at a height Mu Chen could not reach. Moreover, even if he jumped and managed to grab it, he would likely hurt Wanyan Cao.

This struck Mu Chen as somewhat novel; after all, he truly hadn't expected these bosses, each worth tens of millions, to be playing such a common game of cards.

Ren Sinian used white camellias, and she, Luo Fei, also used white camellias, only adding a touch of red to them. By muddying the situation, she wondered... what the outcome would be?

The middle-aged man was the son of the old village chief. Upon hearing the old village chief's words, he said nothing, knelt on the ground, kowtowed respectfully twice, turned around, and left with determination.

Seeing Fei Qinglong stabbed to death, Robin’s body shuddered. His eyes began to turn red, and his hands began to tremble. He gripped the chair beneath him so tightly that his nails pierced his flesh. Crimson blood dripped onto the floor, but he felt nothing at all.

Wang Hao opened his mouth but did not refute the nickname "Flamboyant Man." In any case, such a nickname was quite effective for boosting his live-stream viewership.

"Anything, really?" A sinister, malicious grin appeared on the ghost messenger's face.

With remarkable coordination, the moment Luna stepped into the bushes, Zhong Wuyan raised her hammer for her second skill, and Wang Hao leaped high into the air with his ultimate.

The heads of the Cheng and Ruluo families saw this, and their expressions grew even uglier; they snorted coldly, making no effort to hide their disdain.

Qin Mengshu herself seemed to perceive the towering rage in his eyes. Thinking back to his words just now and looking at the devastation before her, she seemed to understand a great deal.

However, Du Ziteng’s cultivation was profound. Relying on the powerful true essence condensed on his sword, he used a retreat-to-advance tactic, barely managing to remain undefeated.

With a vigorous wave of his hand, the soldiers, well-trained, surrounded the giant corpse of the demon.

The King of Jing shouldn't be so spineless, and Jingzhou isn't made of paper. Especially since the King of Heaven-Bestowed has no elite troops under his command; they are basically just farmers who have dropped their hoes.

"Leon is dead! Leon is nothing but a layer of skin now!!" Justin shrieked hysterically, his voice cracking out of tune.

Xia Yi looked up and saw the portly Zhao Dezhu peering in. When he saw his pale brother, he ran over quickly. Seeing the pool of blood on the floor, he almost screamed, turned and ran to the cabinet, then darted into the bathroom, rummaging through everything.

This system was just an unresponsive, dead machine, and Li Yan didn't expect to get anything out of it.

"Since they are nobodies, why bother wasting your breath on them, brother? Let's go upstairs and drink," a young man in black tight-fitting clothes standing nearby said coldly.

Seeing this, Old Woman Zhang’s face lit up with joy. Using potato cakes to please Xie Shu was the right move; Xie Shu must have been reminded of her childhood by the taste.

Once the arrow struck, that ancient shovel-tusked elephant immediately let out a low, mournful wail like an elephant.

The Japanese grenades were of good quality. As both sides threw them at each other, the enemy held the advantage. A dozen men from the elite squad fell in an instant. The remaining dozen were almost all wounded, yet they stubbornly pressed forward with their bayonets fixed. In the darkness, the sounds of guns clashing and curses filled the air.

At 8:00 PM tonight, it was time for Ma Qian'an to have his scheduled contact with Luo Jianping, who had been sent to the United States. They communicated once a week using code No. 5, and the communication frequency had long been notified via secret code through the public telegraph office.

"Di Xiong runs an underground bank in Lingnan?" Jin Bao, who had heard of Di Xiong’s great reputation long ago, couldn't help but ask.

"Alright, stop making a scene, let's head back first!" Looking at the chaotic scene around them, just as Sogna was about to lose his temper and lash out, Lilith spoke up and pulled back Sogna, who was posturing to rush out.

Shiyi’s eyes narrowed. He already knew what Manzhu had smelled; it was the scent of blood lingering on him. An ordinary person wouldn't be able to smell it, but Manzhu was exceptionally sensitive to it. Previously, he would always bathe and change clothes after killing someone before seeing her, but this time, he had been careless.

Ling Xuewei walked out of the ward with a smile, just as Leng Yurou walked by with an expressionless face. The two brushed past each other. Ling Xuewei left with the air of a victor, while Leng Yurou, though struggling to hide her unease, felt the pain in her heart washing over her in waves.

A person at that realm is a god; in this world, they are a god-like existence, controlling thousands of lives! I wonder if such a person truly exists?

Zhao Hu looked at Zhao Fei, his expression somewhat complex. "Why did you suddenly ask about your Uncle Cai?" Zhao Hu asked, puzzled.

However, the moment his gaze met the cold, middle-aged man's, Chu Ge saw intense fighting spirit in those eyes. The source of the crisis Chu Ge felt was precisely that potent fighting spirit within the man.

"You have a point. Since we've already traveled this far, we might as well go a bit further to search!" Luo Baotong exchanged a glance with the Three Sages of Mingcheng beside him and nodded slightly. The temptation of an immortal artifact—two, in fact—was still immense for them.

Zhao Fuxin and Ouyang Feng followed the guard detachment across three streets. Before they even saw He Yuanqing, they could hear his shouting.

"Come back here!" Yang Ba hurriedly flew into the void and grabbed the golden pill. If this pill really managed to escape, he might as well find a wall and end it all.

Once these words were spoken, Gu Lian’s momentum weakened. Li Chunian was indeed shameless and detestable, but after all, she was truly to blame for Pei Yueyue ending up with him.

Of course, these were just Feng Yuan’s one-sided words, but Leng Yue had reason to believe he had no need to lie to her! Judging by his attitude toward Feng Qiye, he was likely the only person in this imperial palace who treated him with sincerity.

"Kill!" Several Nascent Soul and Soul Formation cultivators roared in unison. The massive sound echoed throughout the entire mountain forest. For a time, one could only hear hundreds of cultivators from the Golden Wind Sect shouting together. Spiritual energy surged between heaven and earth, and the entire Dew Mountain was filled with seven-colored light.
