52 The Destroyed Bamboo Umbrella

Zhou Ruqing was stunned for a fraction of a second before she understood, and her face instantly turned a deep shade of purple. After a moment of hesitation, she abruptly slammed down her silver spoon, burst into loud tears, and ran out.

"I'd say the interior decoration of your place is just so-so, probably only B-grade at best, wouldn't you agree?" Wu Di asked.

Shao Han was inevitably a bit disappointed that such a powerful assistant could not be harnessed for his own use, but he did not show it on his surface.

Zheng Xiyuan was slightly taken aback, not expecting Pofy's news in Tianyue City to be so well-informed, so he could not help but nod in agreement.

Wu Di smiled and remained silent because he was overwhelmingly tired. He closed his eyes once again, and Zhang Lianrong thoughtfully rolled up the car window, restoring everything to peace as before.

"Let's see how you plan to keep me here. Brother Xu, let's go." At this moment, Ye Xiang had already made up his mind to strike.

The first-tier Lightning Art, resembling a tiny firefly, slowly drifted toward Ruoyu. Ruoyu was entirely focused, her eyes fixed unblinkingly on that bolt of lightning.

Feeling that his eyes were slightly better, the swordsman glared fiercely at Xiang Ye, who was hiding to the side, let out a strange howl, and charged at Xiang Ye with his sword drawn.

The moonlight, however, was exceptionally lovely. With a cloudless sky, the icy and pure radiance spilled over the official residence, wrapping the distant mountains and nearby trees in shadowy, hazy gauze, making them look as shy as a bride-to-be awaiting marriage.

Xiang Yu nodded. Without exchanging polite pleasantries with Liu Bang, he picked up his wine cup and drained it in one go. Liu Bang did the same, finishing his wine in a single gulp.

Suddenly, within the depths of the ocean, one figure after another broke through the water and leaped onto the deck. Some of them were injured, while others dragged ferocious demonic beasts, dripping with blood.

In the twelfth year of Emperor Jingyuan of the Great Zhou, the emperor passed away, and his younger brother, Ji Xie, the Prince of Wu, ascended the throne with the era name Zhenghe, appointing Fu Tianchou as co-regent.

"Let's end today's battle right here!" Reincarnation Demon Venerable—no, Undead Demon Venerable—declared in triumph.

Seeing that his magical power was running low and both his physical body and primordial spirit were extremely exhausted, it seemed impossible for him to pass the second trial.

"Mr. Bai, if I go back, will I still be targeted by that alien?" Hisako asked with a bitter smile.

Therefore, despite feeling somewhat displeased with True Immortal Chongyan's attitude, True Immortal Huachi still kept his mouth shut.

As a result, Jiang Nan had not run very far before her legs went soft, causing her to collapse onto the ground, where she was overtaken in just two or three steps by Muran Xiao coming up from behind.

Qin Feng's eyelids twitched. It took him only an hour to comprehend the Great Thousand Technique, and he called that "a bit of research"? Even if you claimed to be the Lord of Seven Stars, it wouldn't be an exaggeration at all.

Bai He directed the flattery usually reserved for the dead fatty and the dog-headed Grand Steward Ke Jin straight at this Lord of Ashes. Shameless as he was, even he felt his face burning with embarrassment. Not to mention that Osut Landon himself was connected with him through their souls; hearing Bai He's string of sycophancy, he was simultaneously exasperated and amused, bursting into loud laughter.

The fire of anger in Gu Shaochen's heart burned increasingly fierce. Did his ex-husband find even comforting him to be a bother now?

"What? Did I guess right? Ha! Do you dare to settle things with me like a real man?" The zombie said as he pulled out the dagger tucked at his waist and pointed it at Tang Jiangzhao.

Upon hearing Yu Qingmei's words, her mother-in-law, Wang Liya, breathed a massive sigh of relief. She certainly was not willing to spend over a hundred thousand just to buy a car; the family already had a Toyota, so why buy so many cars?

Her head began to ache slightly, and Yin Feiran reached out to touch her forehead, feeling the objects before her start spinning once more. Believing she simply hadn't recovered properly from her illness, Yin Feiran dragged her weary footsteps back to her office and slumped over her desk for the entire day.

Seeing Mr. Huang sleeping in the open and often going hungry while watching from afar—though he was truly exasperated by his laziness—whenever there were leftover pastries, I would still slip a little to Mr. Huang to eat. Standing by and watching him starve to death was simply something I could not bring myself to do.

Unexpectedly, someone was actually standing on her side. Muxia felt flattered for a moment, then smiled and nodded in gratitude to them.

Along the way, she could feel all the kindness he had shown her. Take that car accident, for instance: without a single moment of hesitation, he had shielded her first. In the face of such sudden danger that left no room for thought, he had given that chance of safety to her.

In the dead of night, people are particularly sensitive and prone to extremes, and Lu Chengxi seemed to have always harbored a forceful, domineering desire to possess her.

Daddy... this brand-new title now fell upon him. The mere thought of it filled her with sweetness. Unable to help myself, I leaned over and kissed his lips, stealing a sweet moment while he was fast asleep.

The scope of the final exam was supposed to be restricted only to the periphery, but Wang Dong and the others were especially confident in their own strength. Coupled with the fact that they were led by Yun Cang, who possessed Soul Dou罗 cultivation and was the number one student in the inner courtyard, they ventured into the inner zone instead.

This was rather different from the monkey's disposition that he had witnessed. How could this monkey be so well-mannered and courteous?

Lin Fan was long accustomed to such treatment, yet he still preferred to live together with his parents.

Facing an army that loved the people like its own children, an army that never took even a thread or a needle from the populace, the common people naturally gave them their wholehearted support.

A trace of sorrow flashed through Professor X's heart as well. Once upon a time, he had wanted to redeem Li Lin, only to find that this dream was now hopelessly out of reach. Because Li Lin was, in reality, humanity itself. Once one understood this truth, they would realize how impossibly difficult it is for humanity to redeem itself.
