She would no longer allow herself to be controlled by anyone.

At the Ji Clan base, Di Yan had just returned from a mission. In the ruins of a great city, mutated plants had spread toward the summit of Mount Jiu, climbing and engulfing everything in their path. Two teams had already been sent, and both had suffered heavy losses. The weapons recovered did not match the number of casualties, so it was likely that someone had taken them away. He did not want a second Mount Jiu to appear, so he had no choice but to lead the expedition himself.

When he returned, however, he learned that his own mother had been pushed out by his uncle to take the blame, bearing all the laboratory’s sins.

The realm and the imperial order of Great Qi were matters he had not greatly contributed to, but he had never once held the Emperor back.

Seeing him about to go question Cao Cao, Qin’s legs gave way and she collapsed to the ground, clutching tightly at Xiahou Dun’s leg.

“Sit down. We’re not in a rush. There’s no work tomorrow, and it’s fine if we end late today. Have some tea first,” Xi Muze said, beckoning them over.

There were still bullets in the gun, and Lu Zheng had no intention of changing the magazine. He took a gun in each hand and charged out alone from the shop entrance.

Chen Hei did not know what had gotten into him; his mind seemed to short-circuit, as though he had been swept into the scene itself, and he rushed forward to kick one man sprawling.

As for her looks, she could not be called breathtaking, but on Earth she would more than suffice as a woman of grace and charm.

Yet his level seemed to have hit a bottleneck. Even though his power was overflowing from his body, there was no sign that his realm would rise any further.

Near Cloud Dream Mountain, beside the Gate of the Ghost Valley, there stood a peak called Ghost Valley Mountain. It rose to a tremendous height and fell away in sheer slopes. Jagged rocks and wild grass covered its face, and few people set foot there in ordinary times.

Song Jinyu and Jiang Zhi entered the stadium hand in hand and strolled counterclockwise along the brick-red running track.

“There’s one more tricky matter. I want to get my hands on the land at Shallow Bay, but it doesn’t seem very likely at the moment. Today I wanted to hear what ideas you all might have,” Hao Sijun said.

Black Sword’s gift was a multicolored pill, an extremely precious elixir known as the Spirit Silence Pill. It could help one recover from a fallen cultivation level and also mend injuries to one’s own grand dao. It seemed Black Sword was deeply concerned that Han Ye might suffer hidden damage after surviving his tribulation.

Around the fleet, the families and relatives of the fallen cultivators wailed in grief. The cries were enough to make one tear up on hearing them, and those who saw them were moved to pity.

The Phoenix of Flame had lost all its former majesty, shrinking into a huddled mass of self-defense like a hedgehog. There was no trace left of the overpowering might it had shown moments before.

So, for their own lives and for the lives of the human race, they had to pray for Mu Shan and pray that he would win.

Master Miao was sparing with his words when persuading others, stopping at just the right point. He remained calm, and he had faith in Mo Sheng. If he could mend even a dantian, how could he fail to heal Zhang Long’s brain injury? As long as Zhang Long still drew breath, Mo Sheng could drag him back from death’s grasp.

He had come here for this very purpose, and now he was naturally going to bring his aura to its fullest, for no one could stop him from doing something for the human race.

Sensing the black qi seeping from Inoue Hidekazu, Kamijou Touma felt a little guilty. Had he ruined some good thing of Hidekazu’s?

The remaining two End Dragons and a mirrored projection of an End Dragon temporarily remained where they were, awaiting the next order from Luo Hou.

She did not even know when she had knelt down, and the others were no better than she was.

Today, Yeguang had at last grown more mindful and called Liu Chiyan in advance. He said that he was going out to handle some affairs in the afternoon, and if it took too long, Sister Jiang could help pick up Yiyi.

Even so, he was startled in his heart and instinctively took a few steps back, raising the ghost-headed broadsword in his hand.

Yet the words Xu Tianyun had left behind before departing did make him furrow his brow. He walked to the bedside, took hold of his son’s wrist, and examined it carefully.

“Damn it! Qian Lanlan is still on stage!” I broke out in a cold sweat and hurried toward the front, only to be yanked back by the foreign Taoist.

The soldiers stepped forward and separated the chanting citizens waving banners in the front. Rows of archers bearing fire arrows came forward and took their positions in ranks, ready for horse and foot alike.
