Xiao Beiming turned his head away, his chapped, thin lips parting slightly. In the end, he suppressed the turbulent irritation rising within his heart and refrained from uttering any harsh words.
Su Yi'an unwrapped the gauze, preparing to reapply the bandage. Upon opening it, she was met with a deep, gaping wound that exposed the bone.
"So you make your Demon Gods sound so extraordinary, why don't you go reason with those Deity Gods then?" the Prime God beside Zhang Cuishan sneered.
In truth, there was hardly anything in the room that needed arranging. The bed, quilt, toothbrush, mug, and other essentials were all brand new, so Zhao Jian brought nothing else and simply came to the school by himself. The school uniform was fully provided, ranging from undergarments to outerwear. While wearing the school-issued undergarments was optional, the outer layers were strictly mandatory.
"They..." Huo Linxue started to speak, but hesitated, swallowing back the words she wanted to express as they reached the tip of her tongue.
After Gu Gansui gave a detailed account of everything that had transpired from beginning to end, Du Zhenguo rushed into the kitchen, grabbed an iron rod, and drove straight to Gu Gansui’s apothecary. By the time Du Zhenguo arrived at the Gu family shop, Gu Gansui was already sitting quietly outside the entrance. Ignoring him entirely, Du Zhenguo stormed into the shop and smashed every single jar and pot to pieces.

"Yes!" The surrounding servants dared not say anything more. For some unknown reason, the Young Master was in a particularly foul temper today.
Long Tian roared, "Horizontal Blade of a Hundred Battles," and slashed horizontally with the broadsword in his hand. The domineering blade qi directly shattered the blade qi of the Fang God Lang. Continuing its momentum unabated, the blade qi swept toward Fang God Lang horizontally. Dodging the attack by leaping into the air, the latter had already closed the distance to within two meters of Long Tian.
"..." Chen Xi remained silent, gazing at Ling Feng with a dazed expression. Though she knew she was angry, this time she would no longer allow herself to be manipulated by him; her life belonged to her, and she would decide its course.
The physical body of a Gold Lord was not much stronger than that of a Silver Lord. After taking a single bolt of lightning, they were either scorched into charcoal or exploded into a mist of blood.

Zhou Yuanlin wore a fitting, pleasant smile, making his words feel like a warm, fragrant spring breeze sweeping gently across one's face.
If they were to recruit that fellow into their ranks, what would happen if, after joining Night's faction, he found Night's actions to be overly "cruel," contrary to natural justice, and offensive to his personal ideals of "universal love"? Wouldn't he then turn his blade against Night and Hidden Mist?
She now belonged to the Elven faction, flowing with elven blood, and was part of the peace-loving camp of justice.
The most readily achievable pathway was to consume massive amounts of survival points and a large quantity of high-quality undead essences.
As for Elder Zhang, he had a particular fondness for vegetables thriving in the greenhouse. The clever and astute Ding Yunfeng managed the greenhouse with meticulous care, daily driving a newly purchased ox cart to deliver fresh greenery to the Jinman Restaurant—a display of diligence and devotion that mirrored his deep love for life.
