"Are you asleep, Brother Liang?"

Inside a seaside guesthouse at night, Liu Lu cast a stealthy glance at Zhang Miao, who was fast asleep beside her due to the excessive physical exertion during the day, her fingers flying swiftly across her mobile phone screen.

Outside the window, waves crashed against the shore's reefs, producing crisp, rhythmic sounds. On the beach, groups of energetic young people who had yet to sleep gathered in clusters, occasionally bursting into hearty laughter.

In the dark room, someone's eyes flickered with a bright glow, completely ignoring the noise outside the window, focusing solely on the phone screen, eagerly anticipating a reply.

"I won't act spoiled, and I won't comfort you," Zi Qianmo stated, making it clear that she was a demon of strict principles.

"Qin Chong! You and Jincheng form an offensive and defensive alliance; wherever he goes, you go!" Grandfather turned his head and gave his command to Qin Chong.

"Why am I here?" Gu Ling'er was still enveloped in a daze of confusion when she heard a familiar, icy voice.

Gazing at the oversized Thunder Sword suspended above her head, fluctuations rippled through Lin Xuan's eyes, and Xiao Qingfeng's expression turned equally peculiar.

After the car stopped near the power distribution room, Hironobu Zawa got out to open the door, casting cautious glances all around as if terrified of being seen, and only opened the door after confirming no one was approaching.

Before she knew it, a fish-belly white had begun to tinge the horizon, and the first ray of dawn pierced through the clouds.

Just as Qiao Jianyue was about to wipe her hands, she suddenly felt a bite on the back of her neck, and instantly, a jolt resembling an electric current surged through her body.

One must know that this Xingtian Battle Armor was crafted for him by Lu Feng, and Zhang Wei had always regarded it as a priceless treasure.

Liu Yifeng returned to the stone house, took off the plum blossom jade medallion, and only then returned to the main hall, re-entering the concealment array.

Less than half a day had passed since the end of the great war between the Yin and Yang realms, yet the news had already spread wildly across dozens of domains, continuing to propagate to others. It was estimated that the entire world would know within a few days.

Lin Fan stayed in the room for a while longer as the sky gradually grew dark. Dinner time had arrived, and Lin Fan and the others had no choice but to head to the main hall. Shang Xueqingchuan remained behind to take care of Minako, leaving Lin Jia to send some food over for the two of them.

After the Female Asura appeared, she glared with her beautiful eyes, first scanning her surroundings as if expecting the scene, and then shifting her gaze to the divine Chongming bird. Within her calm eyes lay a trace of hard-to-detect surprise, but this astonishment vanished in an instant as she slowly walked aside.

The sword slave single-handedly blocked all gunfire, resembling an infinitely terrifying god of war that sent chills down anyone's spine.

The large hand that had originally shown signs of loosening suddenly exerted force once more, tightly imprisoning Xia Bing again.

"There's no need. This time, unless it's an absolute last resort, we must not take action. Protecting the sheepskin scroll is of the utmost importance!" Lin Fan said in a deep voice.

The perpetrator kept staring at the wine jar, and in the end, he even deliberately pressed his face against the window.

Buildings in the desert were scarce, with the vast majority buried deep beneath the yellow sand, especially structures of such vintage.
