Chapter 63 Case Closed
That really lets Dark One off too easy. Thinking of something, could Dark One have... Unable to suppress it any longer, he let out a roar.
After completing the appraisal, the real estate agent gave her the estimated value: one hundred and fifty million, which would be even lower if she needed to sell in a hurry.
From the looks of it now, the so-called Mount Buzhou Realm must be a high-dimensional space, and imprinting one's divine soul upon it was precisely what Long Xiaoyun referred to as refinement.
Hearing such a bullshit excuse as "lost," she realized almost instantly that Li Yan was not telling the truth.
The three of them took a passenger bus from the town to the county, and after waiting in a very long queue, managed to squeeze onto the train, all of them sweating profusely.
Furthermore, even before the city had fallen, Philip III had already taken the lead in initiating his escape mode. Therefore, the Spanish garrison troops inside the city had long since lost any will to fight, scrambling desperately to save their own lives; how could they possibly have any mind left for combat?
Su Yuxuan stuck out his tongue. "Xuanxuan didn't do anything of the sort." Yet the truth was simply that he did not want to go to school.
From the initial heaviness of her body to gradually becoming as light as a swallow, she ran three full laps around the back mountain before stopping.
She was entirely right. Her eldest brother and his wife would not care about this matter, nor would her mother-in-law. Wei Donghai had no other biological brothers, and outsiders could not easily get involved. If things actually came to physical blows, it would only spell endless trouble.
A look of utter panic filled the face of Half-Demon One. In his desperation, he could no longer care about much else, and taking a deep breath, he pressed his face right up against the rear end of Half-Demon Two.
As they walked along, the two cultivators stared curiously at Lin Quxuan, muttering softly to one another, but Lin Qingxuan simply ignored them.
Having finished this, Zhang Fei threw the corpses of the two ghost generals into the sundry shop to sell them, and then stepped out slowly with the Beast King Sword hoisted across his shoulder.
There was one, and only one, Iron Lady within the province. Moreover, looking across the entire country, such figures were exceedingly rare.
The Cloud-Covered-Snow cat at home, though somewhat fierce toward strangers, remained thoroughly soft and docile in her presence.
You Hai leisurely repeated the words Zhang Xian had told him earlier, and then the three people and one bird fell once again into the same silence.
When it came to traveling by sea, everyone else was familiar with maritime conditions, except for Xia Feng, who had no experience. Although he had undergone water training in the special operations brigade, it had all taken place inland. At first, he was truly unaccustomed to it, and he vomited for a full six days before finally adapting to the tossing and rolling of the ocean waves.
Li Fugui's nascent soul instantly collapsed onto the ground, shrieking in agonizing, heart-rending pain while rolling frantically about in a desperate attempt to extinguish the flames upon his body, yet how could that possibly be of any use whatsoever?
That pitch-black mountain forest seemed to have transformed into a gaping maw, with the swaying trees serving as its rows of sharp canine teeth.
"Ma Xiangyun, come over here," Yan Yun called out. Although he felt this crow harbored no ill intentions, he still had to be on guard; who could know whether it was a human who consumed a crow's life crystal or a crow that consumed a human's?
At night, all was profoundly still. The crisp, piercing sound of iron clashing rang out, yet there was no reaction whatsoever from within the prison. At that moment, near the entrance of the cell block inside, a dark figure beckoned to the masked intruders who had just rushed in. After merging with them, the dark figure whispered a few words and led them charging directly into the cell block.
After exchanging polite pleasantries, Zhang Chuan threw a punch straight at her. Ming Fei did not even dodge; she caught Zhang Chuan's full-force, ninety-percent-strength fierce attack with a single hand, pushed the move aside with an utterly relaxed expression, and then, moving with lightning speed, slipped behind Zhang Chuan and gave him a gentle shove. Zhang Chuan immediately lunged forward and sprawled flat onto the ground. The whole affair was finished in just two moves.
As for this particular incident, I recall I was working in my eldest aunt's vegetable greenhouse when her two sons very nearly bullied me. I went home crying, saying I was exhausted and refused to go back, which only resulted in a sound beating from my mother.
Amidst intertwined emotions of mutual hesitation and anticipation, a week later, the date for the commercial tournament was finally finalized.
"Well then, if you don't marry in this lifetime, isn't it the same to go to Changshan to find a wife in the next generation?" Yanyan asked.
Hearing that Wu She, Senior Grand Master of the Chu State, had come to visit, Gongsun Wu actually went personally to the outer gates to welcome him. After exchanging formal greetings, Gongsun Wu invited Wu She into the reception hall. Without uttering a word, Wu She drew a gift list from his sleeve and handed it over.
Upon hearing this, Qi Ruizhez raised his head, looked at Han Jinyu for a few moments with those gorgeous peach-blossom eyes of his, and let out an ambiguous chuckle. Without offering a single word of commentary, he lowered his head and resumed eating.
When night finally fell, a commotion was heard outside the door at last, and Su Jinli, curled up on the daybed, excitedly climbed down and ran toward the entrance.
What was going on here? They had only discovered the oleanders when they went to tour the lake, and that lake trip had been a spur-of-the-moment decision. How on earth had Zizhu gotten the news?
Yet when one truly came to think of it, with the situation already having reached this state, it felt as though any additional measures would offer no further means of remedy.
"What are you laughing at?" Seeing that Qinghong showed no sign of stopping, Huo Yang's fierce eyebrows knitted tightly together above his tiger-like eyes, and a sharp glare shot from his pupils, locking straight onto Mu Qinghong, who was still laughing heartily.
I remember when you first encountered mortal food, your eyes would light up with eagerness, stuffing anything edible straight into your mouth.
"I believe you'll have two jerseys retired, and I can't wait to see that moment," said Sun Zhuo.
Long and short swords littered the floor of the hall, and the fierce-looking men raised their hands in surrender one after another. Though accustomed to ruthlessness, they knew how to value their lives. Today's business did not involve any grave crimes for them; at worst, they would be locked up for a few days before being released. It was hardly worth risking their lives for a paltry sum of wages.
"So that's how it is." Chen Mu instinctively bit her lip, a craving for brewed liquor growing even stronger in her heart.
This contraption was about half a meter in diameter, resembling an iron wok, though considerably deeper. Since the height of the cave ceiling was nearly ten meters, the object was suspended by three iron chains five meters above the ground, making it extremely conspicuous.
"Granny, let me wash the wild vegetables. Is there any staple food left at home?" Jinse rolled up her sleeves, revealing her slender arms, and set to work washing the greens.
It felt as though she had returned to her most tranquil times, the most brilliant frost and wind, or perhaps her very first appearance. The sound of the zither was like a narrative, softly recounting past depths of affection, causing everyone to picture their most beloved person, reminiscent of youthful days overflowing with fragrance.
Those two pieces from earlier were absolute garbage in Wang Nu's eyes. That was why he had handed them over to Ao Chengzhuang, hoping he would learn a lesson from it.
He felt his thighs brushing against two warm objects that were exceptionally smooth and tender, possessing a texture akin to silk.
He suddenly felt that his life was so hollow, much like a wise man who had seen through the world. In that single instant, he achieved sudden enlightenment, yet also perceived how desolate existence truly was. His entire lifetime had been dedicated to the Supreme, to those cold statues upon the divine altar.
