I had always feared her a little, for her tongue was too sharp. Now that fear had grown, for she was also cunning.
"Leader Zhu," he began, "but then again, if Guardian Xu had not intervened in time, I would surely have suffered humiliation and death. In terms of merit and reward, Guardian Xu’s contribution is monumental; I shall recommend you for a promotion."
After nearly twenty years of silence, the mission to restore and develop the continuity of natural scientific knowledge in our country had fallen squarely upon the shoulders of Ivan and his generation of "lucky ones." This was one of the key reasons Ivan chose this project, and naturally, Lan Yu was silently supporting his decision.
Over the next half-month, Zhou Xiaoyi launched a fierce offensive on behalf of the Edward Consortium, going full throttle. She openly competed with Zihuan International across multiple business sectors, and Shi Tianci suffered a series of defeats, seemingly unable to put up any resistance.
After leaving the NG Building, Shen Tong arrived in Chinatown, recalling a tailor shop he knew of there.
Qin Zhenzhen climbed onto my back and wrapped her arms around me. I had no other thoughts at that moment; I took long strides and sprinted upstream as if flying.
"Isn't that just a matter of a word from you? Fine, you won't give me a raise? Then just lend me the money!" Ming Cheng said, his tone filled with pique.
As the Venerable in White let out a sharp shout, the body of the Quyang Sword trembled, and Qin Min's consciousness was forced out of the blade.
Chen Siyan had not returned all night, and Shi Xiaofeng smiled. The guy had finally wised up; he must have been so busy indulging in pleasure last night that he lost track of time.
However, at the very last moment, Lin Yi’s words had been heard by the other party. Lin Yi had already promised that if he saw Yinhua again, he would definitely tell her about the matter of the Celestial Horse.
Xiao Jing had always been a serious person when it came to work, even if the work plan was initially intended only to provide cover.
"Didn't you hear me call you? Damn it... what’s so fun about that piece of junk? Do you want me to confiscate it?" Karthas urged impatiently.

Tracing everything back to its root, the cause lay with Zhang Yun, for he had repeatedly beaten those two lackeys from their peak state back to... their initial state.
As everyone knows, current infrastructure is free of charge, and there is no cost for entertainment in the Holy Lake.
Even though "Half-Immortal" Xu had a silver tongue, how could one person argue against so many mouths? Before he could even speak, he was drowned out by the insults of the crowd. His old face turned a burning, mottled red, and he wished he could find a hole to crawl into; even Zhang Dan, standing beside him, could not help but turn his own flushed face away.
Since literacy campaigns had been conducted within the army, these people could basically recognize several thousand common Chinese characters.
The summary of the event, reported by the Crossbell Weekly, developed into an unprecedented scandal.
Therefore, Yang Qingxian sank into deep thought. The task assigned by Zhang Yun had to be completed without any compromise. Yang Qingxian understood at least that much.
This was originally Azir's Ascension ritual; for others to use it, they had to endure the burden of what Azir poured into it.
Nasus was stunned for a moment, but Renekton had already pushed him several dozen meters away, and the spot where he had just been standing was now a deep crater smashed by a massive boulder.
Liu Xiang’s eyes grew increasingly hazy, a satisfied smile on his face as he held Deng Xin tightly. His eyelids felt heavy, but he refused to close them, continuing to gaze at her. His words became softer and softer, as if he were muttering to himself.
Although Long Jianfei was staring at the screen, he noticed a slight anomaly. The lights in the corridor outside were on. Subconsciously, he adjusted his headset, creating a small gap between the device and his ear; he could clearly feel the rise and fall of warm breath just two meters behind him.
Wind rose from the ground, swirling unseen dust that pushed everything movable forward.
Hearing this, Rong Zhan softened his footsteps and crept into the inner room. He saw Jun Li staring intently at the child, the tenderness in his eyes so full it was almost overflowing.

There was no help for it; in this regard, their second sister-in-law was a bit "slow"—whoever she liked was all she could see, and she would never spare any thought for anyone else.
The end of the story was quite nice; the boy worked hard and achieved a gaokao score similar to hers, but he did not apply to the same university. Instead, his family arranged for him to study abroad.
Now she finally understood the relationship between the man in white and Cheng Siyan: they were fellow disciples, and the man in white was the young master of their generation. It was just unclear what had happened within their sect that caused these people to want to eliminate Cheng Siyan, and even to kill the man in white, whom they feared so much.
The implication was a jab at Dong Zhu for being so useless that he lacked even the ability to defend himself, faring worse than a mountain spirit or monster that had only cultivated for a dozen years.
Baishi narrowed his eyes slightly; he didn't know if it was his imagination, but he felt that this ball was not as simple as it looked.
Qian Wan’s eyelashes fluttered, her cold, clear gaze sweeping over the painting on the ground before she reached out, through her plastic gloves, to touch the frame.
"Yes." Fu Yuan glanced at Du Yu, feeling a bit annoyed. What did he mean by "only suffered internal bruising"? Did he want his grandfather to be hurt even worse?
Within his hands as he formed seals, arrays of thunder and lightning shimmered, numbering nine in total.
Almost at the same moment the calm water was stirred, nearly a hundred ferocious-looking, demonic-aura-exuding fish surged out.
