Chapter 35: It Won't Happen Again

No wonder Lu Chengxuan could speak with such certainty that giving her only twenty percent was already far more than the fifty percent others received.

Countless peach trees, as if endowed with life, moved in a pattern that appeared chaotic yet was extremely orderly, firmly blocking her path.

Several death warriors stepped forward immediately, raised their hands, and slapped Yun Yichen across the face repeatedly until his cheeks were swollen, only then stopping.

That was not all. Even more alarming was that in the short span of a single incense stick's time, Hui'er had actually absorbed over a hundred source crystals without feeling any discomfort in her body.

Going out for a stroll? Xuan Chen had said that the soldiers in the mountains were managed and trained by him; one must not be deceived by the gentleness he displayed on the surface. Ziqing also appeared as gentle as jade, but in truth, no one was more black-bellied and cunning than he.

She, who had been somewhat puzzled, clearly captured the wild joy in Mo Sang’s eyes and instantly understood her intention in choosing this path.

Seeing the monster getting closer and closer, Su Mi felt as if she had gone mad, experiencing a strange sense of anticipation.

Whether they were underworld envoys or cultivators seeking the Dao, they held vastly different attitudes toward evil spirits and wronged souls. If it were an evil spirit, they would undoubtedly exterminate it without hesitation. But if it were a wronged soul, they would have to judge the situation accordingly.

Although Lu Chengxuan was a skilled cook, because the two did not eat much, they usually had only two dishes and a soup each day. But today was different; the servants in the courtyard all wanted to stay in the Red Plum Courtyard. Those with ability showed off their talents, while those without busied themselves with chores.

Su Mi did not expect that Shen Lie was secretly plotting how to seize control of the household; she simply assumed it was his young master’s temper and prepared to give him the cold shoulder for a few days.

Currently, Gato’s shipping company in the Land of Waves was like a massive thorn in the throat of the Land of Water. Moreover, the Saudi Federation, which had annexed the Land of Tea, was also vigorously developing its naval forces and showed signs of aligning with the Land of Rainbow.

Hyuga Mirai was not a native of the ninja world; his memories of the first five years felt to him like an incredibly long film.

At this moment, the rocket launch base was busy with final preparations. Some had already boarded the rocket ahead of others, while some continued to wait in line.

Today was the opening ceremony. Every year, the school held a dance for the occasion. Everyone attended in formal attire; the dance was in the morning, and classes followed in the afternoon.

Having spent seven or eight hours here, Sett wore a look of intense displeasure—although the endless blue had been truly mesmerizing at the very beginning, now, looking at these things, Sett could only feel a wave of nausea and disgust.

If not for his status as the Hokage’s assistant and his work in establishing the police force, Yakushi Kabuto would have long since been reported to the Interrogation Unit by the Hyuga clan. Gathering intelligence on the number one scouting clan in the ninja world was truly no easy task.

Furthermore, Hyuga Mirai had sealed his own Senjutsu chakra within the sacrifices, adding another layer of security to his control over the Impure World Reincarnation bodies.

If the pills proved ineffective, they still had medical facilities for treatment and rest, but Li Feng was skeptical about the quality of care there.

Afterward, Qi Heng struggled with his inner thoughts for a while before happily admitting that he had definitely fallen for Yinyue.

Many people knocked on the door in the middle of the night, hoping to curry favor, but Lin Changan pretended to still be injured and refused to see anyone.

Suddenly, the space in the entire conference room twisted and was completely sealed off. Everyone immediately felt that the intense heat had dissipated, and as they opened their eyes to look around, Zhao Song and Long Ziyan had already vanished.

There were those who came to fight, those who came to watch the excitement, and those who came to claim a share of the spoils. In short, major guilds with various motives were all flying toward Oasis City.

However, this was still a long way from achieving divinity in the flesh and attaining an indestructible body. Every step forward from this point on could not be achieved by effort alone; it required destiny and good fortune.

"I am offering kind advice. If you continue to be ungrateful, then I shall let you know who the real scoundrel is." Looking at the vicious-looking deputy commander, Yun Changkong sneered.

Tang Yaotian really wanted to say, "Even if I act as bait, how can we be sure that the two-headed water snake will bite? It is a spirit beast, not a mindless animal." Looking at Old Man Green’s solemn expression, he truly wondered how the man managed to feign it so well.

I smiled at her, but honestly, I was truly embarrassed. My body was that of a five-year-old child, but my mind was not; having such things attended to by others made it impossible to remain calm and composed.

"Break!" Sensing the ferocity of Mei Huang’s blade, Yun Changkong changed his hand seals. The beam of light suddenly shifted, surging wildly, and then, like a giant rod covering the sky, it whistled through the air at lightning speed, eventually clashing head-on with that massive bone blade.

Upon hearing these words, Ye Ci was startled and, no longer caring about the players tangled up with her on the ground, immediately turned and flew toward the distant horizon. However, NPCs were definitely not the same as players; you might escape from players, but you might not escape from an NPC.

Returning to the White Mansion, I felt as if my whole body were falling apart. The day had not been particularly strenuous—it was easier than my usual training—perhaps it was simply that I was unaccustomed to such crowded places. The shrill, noisy sound of firecrackers and drums seemed to still echo in my ears, and I felt a faint, lingering headache.

Seeing this scene, the owner of the ramen shop was shocked beyond measure, and Shikamaru and the others were equally stunned. He truly could not imagine where Wuyue had come up with so many bizarre and unconventional ideas.

Wei Feng watched his master’s expression and guessed seven or eight parts of the situation, revealing a meaningful smile.

"That... old man... I didn't mean to... it was your son who suddenly ran into me..." The car owner tried desperately to argue, but Wang Dashu’s wailing drowned out his voice; he even saw Wang Dashu pull out his mobile phone.

When Zhao Jin heard from her sister that she could go to the Song Mansion, she was excited for a long while, then looked at Zhao Po with a meaningful, rolling gaze.

After driving only a short distance, until Tang Beishuang was no longer in sight, Jin Chenyan slammed his foot on the brake.

"Dad! Dad, what are you looking at?" Jin Ziyan had run out at some point, and the moment he emerged, he saw Jin Chenyan staring blankly into the distance.

Since the cover-up incident last time, Manager Cui had not only remained unaffected but had actually been promoted further during the company's next personnel shake-up.

Both ears began to ring with a buzzing sound, and cold sweat broke out uncontrollably. Mixed with the sweat from his frantic running earlier, it soaked his entire body, and his blood felt as if it had frozen solid.
