Chapter 61

Shen Duo said no more, probably figuring that an unreasonable person in a temper would not listen to reason anyway. Without another word, he scooped me up in a bridal carry and bore me straight up to the upper floor.

Naturally, Naruto always treated him with courtesy and wore a smile, seemingly getting along with him in absolute harmony. The two had never engaged in any conflict whatsoever, yet today things were entirely different.

The hearts of everyone in the Cang Kingdom could not help but sink heavily. With five martial saints appearing all at once, how was their Cang Kingdom supposed to face such an enemy?

Protector Li felt that Chu Ning’s blade technique was not particularly formidable—not formidable to the point where he was incapable of blocking it. What made Chu Ning formidable was the man himself, powerful on a human level.

Chu Ning delivered punch after punch. The skin on his knuckles split open, faintly revealing the white bone beneath. Fresh blood flowed continuously, some trickling down his hands along his forearms, while other drops fell straight to the ground.

Zuo Liang leaned close to Liang Cao to whisper in her ear, making Liang Cao feel quite uncomfortable. Figuring that he probably had something important to say, she merely glared at him without moving her body away.

Within Wang Ruoyu’s field of vision, the Queen Bee had initially been furious about her duel being interrupted, appearing intent on teaching that Beedrill a lesson. However, as the Beedrill gave its account, the Queen Bee gradually quieted down.

The Ultra Space was vast. Facing the endless stream of incoming Ultra Beasts, Wang Qing had no confidence that he could hold out indefinitely. Therefore, the best course of action for him at this moment was to exhaust Necrozma’s power to the maximum possible extent.

Watching this scene, he smiled. He had known all along that his Ruanruan possessed the ability to calm Rou'er down.

"Could it be that even with your divine sense, which has achieved the Primordial Spirit realm, you are unable to enter Gu Qiu's sea of consciousness?" Mother asked unwillingly, a note of frustration in her voice.

The sound of fists smashing into human skulls and bullets piercing human flesh rang out simultaneously, sounding precisely as though the Grimton were dancing with his scythe, playing a melody as enchanting as it was written in blood.

Amidst the brilliant illumination, a plaza packed with countless carriages materialized before Yu Zi's eyes. At this moment, the square was intensely bustling; nobles jostled and shoved against one another, while the sounds of neighing horses and rolling carriage wheels echoed ceaselessly.

Shao Hua finally set her mind at ease. She turned to glance at Shao Yuxin, and seeing that the girl was truly fast asleep, she felt reassured enough to focus entirely on driving.

By this time, Yu Zi already knew that the Crown Prince of Qi had originally commanded the three newly arrived beauties to serve at the banquet. Upon learning that an important distinguished guest would be in attendance, he had temporarily altered his plans, ordering all of them—the top-tier beauties—to attend and receive the guests.

"They are the prey, and we are the hunters... Is that it?" Watching Zhao Yi’s departing figure, Allen’s gaze gradually ignited with a resolute and unyielding radiance.

Fang Yao had a premonition: for his uncle to come looking for him at a time like this, something definite must have happened. Although he did not yet know what it was, he could be certain of one thing—it was certainly nothing good!

The six major financial conglomerates were the first to be ruled out. Possessing immense foundations, each boasting hundreds of solid-state-tier experts and controlling over a thousand planets, partnering with these corporate giants would only cause their power to swell once more, potentially allowing them to regain control over the government. Those who played politics understood this reality with crystal clarity.

This Thunder-Striking Dragon surpassed him tenfold in both speed and destructive power! He could neither outrun it nor defeat it; could it be that just as a turning point had finally appeared in his life, he was destined to perish right here today?

Under Duan Yuying's arrangements, Liao Ying had already initiated efforts to track down Fang Yao and his companions, attempting to recruit them to their cause. However, the whereabouts of Fang Yao and the others were far too enigmatic for Liao Ying to find any trace of them.

"Your Highness, in other matters, you may act with absolute autocracy. But imperial marriages involve decrees and political maneuvers originating from the inner palace, the Empress Dowager, the Empress..." Bai Ji spoke while casting sidelong glances at Qin Shou'an's robes.

The reason Isha recalled all this was that the demeanor of the top-ranked young master before her—who restrained his usual aggressiveness yet remained too proud to bicker with others—reminded her of that former adjutant.

As soon as these words were spoken, Bai Xu and Mo Yu simultaneously furrowed their brows, their expressions turning unsightly. While outsiders were unaware, Bai Xu and Mo Yu knew all too well how they had originally managed to escape from the shelter where Mo Yu was located.

Unlike certain growth-type individuals whose combat power evaluations were low yet held high potential, nor like Jiang Lin whose potential and combat ratings were low but whose intelligence evaluation ranked high, Mo Yu's performances always managed to exceed people's expectations.

"You... you!" The large man immediately began to struggle violently, unable to comprehend when exactly Mo Yu had seen through his disguise.

After finishing her makeup and dressing up, Huaiyu came to chat idly with her two sisters. Seeing Qin Shou'an enter with flowers, she initially assumed that today being the day the two abbesses lectured on the sutras, the blossoms were prepared for them. Instead, Qin Shou'an divided them into four bouquets, presenting one to each of the three women.

Lin Xun put away the life-saving talisman gifted by Wisanu and departed the residence alongside Amos, who had been waiting patiently outside the door.

The Minotaur seemed as though he could never eat enough; every day he was either eating meat or on his way to roasting meat.

Consequently, he turned his attention to the adjacent archery section. The inventory of products here was equally vast: compound bows, draw bows, longbows, shortbows spanning seven or eight varieties, alongside more than a dozen types of crossbows including cross bows, compound crossbows, and repeating crossbows, leaving Leon delightfully captivated.

Having calculated the distance, Leon drove his vehicle to a hillside twenty kilometers away from the base, drew his binoculars, and began his observation.

You are simply terrified of dying on the road! If word gets out that Liu Yu, the Governor of Youzhou, set out to suppress Dong Zhuo yet perished on the journey without even laying eyes on Dong Zhuo, you wouldn't even have a shred of face left to show anyone!

From the moment Lin Yi fell in love with Zhou Quan, she had ceased to be herself. She grew increasingly insecure, suspicious, and plagued by constant anxiety, throwing away all her dignity for this ridiculous and pathetic romance.

Terrifying sword qi collided in the void, erupting into dreadful shockwaves of blade energy. In the blink of an eye, two dragon-like figures intertwined with one another. Sword qi surged wildly; at times sweeping outward with massive, mountain-like heaviness that fully displayed an overbearing dominance, and at others turning as light and wispy as willow catkins, shifting with treacherous unpredictability like venomous snakes of the abyss.

Intuition told Meng Qi that if he could get close to the Sea King, perhaps all his questions would be answered. Yet the current situation had suddenly grown murky and obscure, leaving Meng Qi hesitating over whether he should take the risk of drawing near.

"Tie him up and take him back!" Gao Shun commanded with a sharp voice. Two soldiers from the Camp-Breaking Vanguard immediately stepped forward, bound Deng Mao securely, and dragged him off. Poor Deng Mao remained utterly dizzy even after being dragged away, completely devoid of any capacity to resist.

At some unknown moment, a man clad in a Western suit, wearing a blue patterned tie and a gentle, affectionate smile, stepped into the office.

Upon seeing these two golden characters, Lu You was stunned for a moment, followed instantly by a violent shudder of his entire body. Two brilliant, dazzling beams of light erupted from the depths of his pitch-black pupils.
