Chapter 51: Out of Control

Therefore, when the unusual movement in the woods caught Oka's attention, he only secretly remained on guard, never expecting that the target of the assassination would be directed squarely at Alfonso and Cornelia! For a moment, a whirlwind of thoughts raced through Oka's mind, yet he still could not quite grasp the key to it all. However, this was hardly the time to be pondering such matters.

Even now, many high-tier demonic cultivators would often attempt to refine and forge fate-threads. Yet, under the powerful suppression of the righteous factions led by Haoyue Sky, such occurrences were relatively rare.

While the burly man shrieked in agony, Yan Qing, who was about to be caught off guard and sprayed with a torrent of fresh blood, was yanked backward by another pair of hands, narrowly avoiding the gushing stream of blood.

Totori immediately jumped up to a safe spot, once again invoking the alchemy array used for atmospheric control. With clumsy yet fluent movements, she compressed the air and fired it forward at high speed! This was a standard air cannon; the invisible shockwave twisted the air and violently blew apart the squirming, tentacle-like mass of steel.

Asuna and Kirito nodded in agreement, and the group then found a restaurant to casually settle their dinner.

With this thought in mind, Yan Qing gathered her skirts and bowed in salute, intending to withdraw. To her surprise, Su Zige merely deepened his smile, nodded slightly toward her, and then unexpectedly sat cross-legged of his own accord. His slender, fair fingers gently plucked the strings of the guqin, and a lingering, distant melody instantly resonated through the air.

Jinqing stood up in surprise, while Li Qiutang smiled affectionately at her, linked arms with her, and pulled her right along as they walked out.

The small storage compartment was packed with all sorts of provisions. However, unlike before, besides a few bottles of nutritional fluid, it now also contained numerous pieces of dried meat.

In this regard, Xiong Qi was an absolute novice. No matter how strong his self-control was, his body still reacted with the most instinctive impulse. At this moment, as Xiong Qi pressed closer against Eva's back, his lower half, driven by the closing distance, pushed directly against Eva's sensitive zone.

Just as Yui finished speaking, a vast expanse of clouds obstructing the group's vision suddenly parted. Having ascended to the maximum altitude limit, Lyfa and Morning Meditation could see a boundless green plateau unfolding before their eyes.

Only the left side here was recessed and accessible, while just off the path to the right was a steep cliff; there was absolutely no need to split up and search on both sides.

The Japanese team tried to find opportunities through continuous ball control and passing, while also slowly draining the stamina of the Chinese team.

"Uh... I traveled across the stars in my youth and just happened to know a few old friends, and we talked about it during casual chats..." Batte immediately reacted to the realization that he was about to give himself away, coughing awkwardly a few times to cover it up.

Thinking that they had no scheduled events for the afternoon and might have gone somewhere to intensify their practice, Lian Yu did not think much of it either, sitting down to click open and browse the program list.

Although she remained expressionless, her heart was currently blooming with joy. Ever since that incident, for reasons unknown, Jing Huan had continuously lingered in her mind.

Going to Lan City once again, a brand new batch of well-trained soldiers now guarded the city gates. After undergoing a round of questioning at the entrance, Chu Yan and Lu Wuzhao entered Lan City. Before leaving, Chu Yan glanced at the insignia on the soldiers' waists and withdrew her gaze thoughtfully.

Le Xing looked up at the man opposite her and saw that he was a middle-aged man, very thin and looking quite malnourished.

Lin Fenglan immediately moved to get the money. Having lived an honest and submissive life as a couple for decades, they naturally held boundless terror toward the notoriously ruthless village chief.

Though she did not know why Xu Mu was in such a rush, Song Dongtian still agreed to his request.

The manager was rebuffed and left speechless, yet fearing that the business would slip away, he could only swallow a bellyful of fire without daring to vent it on this God of Wealth. If their boss knew he had botched this deal, his bonus for the month would surely be docked.

Qin川 had no inkling of her identity and estimated she was likely not a denizen of the upper realms, yet she knew of the existence of Great-aunt Yuxi, making it baffling to figure out what kind of sacred figure she truly was.

Discovering that things were not as bad as she had imagined, Chen Yan took a deep breath and repeated the words she had heard from Zhou An.

Jiang Yunfan could not understand why the princess was angry yet again. Although he did not know the cause of her anger, assuming it was his fault could never be wrong.

If Zhou An were to act according to the logic of the orthodox pugilistic world, he would have to slaughter every single person across the entire martial arts realm, seeing as... he was currently at enmity with the entire world.

Fortunately, there were not many people on the road, and Jiang Yunfan tried his best to keep his face half-hidden in the shadows to spare himself any embarrassment.

[Description]: A spiritual plant material containing flowing fire-attribute spiritual qi, which has undergone special changes due to the influence of a mysterious force.

Before long, the van left the urban area, traveled along a road for a few minutes, and screeched to a halt in front of a rural courtyard.

Upon hearing the protagonist address the emperor as a sworn brother, Li Junqing's expression suddenly flashed with panic. Could he have found out?

Being middle-aged, he was naturally somewhat cautious. Failing to recognize Nine Heavens's identity and background, he did not rashly step forward to stand up for Kou Jun, speaking with a measure of politeness instead. After all, in Immortal King City, there were far too many individuals with powerful backgrounds and influence; he did not wish to provoke trouble for the Kou family over a nonsensical verbal dispute.

Naturally, Zhou An could not explain the truth to him. Although the poem was plagiarized, there was no reason for him to proactively confess.

The Shi woman's eyelids twitched. Glancing around, she strode toward her, dragging a long whip all the way, her eyes flashing with a dangerous glint.

As he reached the doorway, Zimeng chased after him holding a blank roll of film, handed him the new roll, and then forcefully ripped the film out of his camera, exposing it to the light. With that, the photographs he had taken were ruined as well.

Asada Shin used to earn an annual salary of one million yen at Everbest, but the price Wan Feng now offered him equated to 1.7 million yen.

Several men walked out one after another, and the Shi woman glanced in their direction, secretly memorizing their location.

The weather was beginning to grow warmer day by day. Since Xia Wanning did not need to enter the palace to pay her respects, she was quite content and happy, hiding away in her room every day.

On the rooftop, Wan Yiyi and Su Ning, clad in night-walker garments, completely blended into the night sky of the sixth watch. Wan Yiyi narrowed her eyes to glance in the direction where Wanqing had departed, gave Su Ning a nudge, and asked.
