Volume 1 Chapter 48: Conducting Training
That person looked at Qin Tiange and the Disk Master before him, his gaze condensing. Especially upon catching sight of Qin Tiange, his pupils involuntarily shrank to the size of pinpricks, betraying a deep sense of shock.
As they spoke, Gu Mu and the others had already arrived near the lake and chosen a patch of lawn to sit cross-legged. When the sect members surrounding the lake saw the arrival of the Supreme Mystery Sect, they reacted just like the sects encountered earlier, either turning around or pretending not to see them.
Otherwise, if this was a child who should never have been kept, why would his words and tone constantly persuade him to keep this child?
"Our number one position was completely and utterly blown away by the opponent. There are no excuses that can mask this pathetic fact!" said a member of the Cavaliers' front office in an interview after the match, wearing an expression of utter dismay.
"Is that so? Excellent. That way we can buy more time, and the ones behind will be able to catch up," Lan Haichen said with a smile upon hearing this.
"Boss, you know that Yang Yuan has a younger sister named Yang Shan, right?" Wu Ming panicked slightly as this was the first time he had disobeyed his boss's orders, yet he pressed on regardless.
As for Houtaro, he actually felt quite at ease. He only needed to stay in the Earth Science classroom until all the club anthologies were sold, and for Houtaro, nothing could possibly be more relaxing than that.
This grand recruitment drive was undoubtedly the largest recruitment event in the history of the virtual gaming industry, offering a maximum reward of one million Aquamarine Coins—and all for simply filling in the background details of a martial arts setting? Furthermore, there was no upper limit, multiple submissions were allowed, and even time restrictions were nonexistent?
Yun Changge reached out to flick the tip of her nose before slowly recounting that past which he had once thought he would never share with anyone.
He was truly worthy of being the national team's only core player who could perform consistently on the international stage with remarkably high efficiency.
Although this token possessed no offensive might, any cultivator who had heard its name or recognized its true nature would tremble with fear and break out in a cold sweat.
Ah Sheng's teeth gnashed audibly; his gathered strike had only managed to inflict minor injuries on the opponent. Meanwhile, another person stood completely unharmed nearby, and in the distance, an even more formidable staff-bearer waited.
"Ye Tian, the Azure Cloud Ladder has at most a few hours left. You cannot possibly step onto the one hundred and eighty-first tier, give up!" Nalan Yiyi cried out involuntarily as she looked at Ye Tian's wretched and miserable state.
With a hand forming an incantation and his index finger pointing repeatedly, the overgrown weeds fused together before him and shattered instantly like a mirror surface, revealing a large circular stone.
The sword Qi of the Universe Sword had overwhelmingly suppressed that dark mist; at the mere wave of the sword, the black fog before Ye Mu scattered in all directions as if imbued with life.
Wang Hong was not angered either. In this circle, strength was paramount; since Bai Mumuli possessed a higher cultivation level than him, he had nothing to say.
"Ye Tian," she gazed at the man she longed for day and night, the joy in her heart feeling as though it were about to burst.
Ah Sheng was brought into a military camp situated right beside the city gate entrance, a garrison post for the city guards. During this special period, a temporary interrogation room had been established within the camp specifically to screen suspicious individuals.
"I suppose I'm taking advantage of you. Father, let's take me home, I miss Daddy." Qin Qingtong tugged at Qin Tian's sleeve, her mouth tasting quite bitter. Perhaps because the other person was simply too out of reach, her face remained utterly serene.
Wang Lingjun, Chen Wanhuai, and Yang Zhenshi exchanged glances, seeing shock and sheer disbelief mirrored in each other's eyes.
No wonder every time Qin'er mentioned Xia Chiwan, it was always with an expression of burning, bitter hatred.
Such despicable acts of favoring concubines over wives and treating legitimate children worse than offspring of concubines were behaviors that even ordinary commoners would disdain and mock.
Fortunately, that frog did not seem to care about us. After landing, it hurriedly turned around to face the three cats over there. Although the three cats had also noticed us, they did not shift their focus toward us. The cat on the wall let out a meow and jumped down as well, joining the two on the ground as they walked toward us.
Over all these years, Feng Sanbao had raised at least three to four hundred salt-enforcers, among whom were truly fierce individuals willing to risk their lives in combat. When it came to combat strength, not to mention thousand-man garrisons like Fushansuo, even if the Jimo Battalion stationed in Jimo were deployed for a direct head-on clash, it was hard to say whether they could emerge victorious against the salt-enforcers.
Later on, the two of us chatted for a bit before going to sleep. For a very long time after lying down, my mind replayed that silhouette turning sideways with its silver-reflecting eyeballs, causing my body to grow instinctively cold.
In this day and age, simultaneously controlling the sales of well salt and grain guaranteed absolute dominance in the north. The money would practically be shoved directly into one's pockets rather than requiring any laborious effort to earn.
Brother and sister wore smiles on their faces, exchanging a glance that revealed a profound and overflowing joy in each other's eyes. This harvest was several times smaller than when he used to catch wild pheasants and hares in the mountain forests with his uncle in their past lives, but it was already more than enough to bring joyful surprise.
Ling Lan's heart sank heavily. She secretly glanced at Gu Hanhao; the man she loved most was probably the second person on Shirley's death list, right after Qiao Qi.
Clutching the rope, he slowly lowered the wooden bucket into the well. As it touched the water's surface, he shook the rope with both hands to make the bucket sway from side to side. Then, taking advantage of the wider swing, he tipped the bucket into the water, causing it to submerge and fill completely.
When they reached the backyard, right at the base of the city wall, they indeed discovered white cats—and not just one, but all three of them were present. Among them was one as large as a leopard; if he guessed correctly, it must be the one the cow had given birth to earlier today.
The man on top of her spoke with an expression and tone that made Fang'er wish she could strangle him to death.
"Princess Shangguan, our side has already won two consecutive rounds. You have nothing more to say now, do you?" Lin Yi looked at Shangguan Shuangwu with a half-smile, secretly guessing that this matter definitely wouldn't end easily.
