Chapter 47: New Shoes Every Year

She had no idea what snow boots were.
She only knew they were new shoes.
Yet, simply laying eyes on this pair of new shoes brought tears to her eyes.
She remembered the last time she wore new shoes; it was when her mother had personally stitched the thousand-layered soles for her.
Her father was still alive back then, and the two of them each had a pair.
In the blink of an eye, so many years had passed. Even when she married into the Zhao family, she had only worn those very same thousand-layered soles.
......
The moment those three long spears were unleashed, countless rays of yellow light shot forth, blanketing the sky like a torrential downpour of rain.

"Well, that naturally counts as my loss." Jack put his phone back into his pocket, smiled, and didn't take Lu Feiyang's words to heart.

"Then why did the dragon's head look like that?" Wei Yan said word by word, his eyes filled with sheer incomprehension.

Looking at the fierce bear Zhao Hongde with a somewhat complicated expression, he genuinely wanted to thank the bear. It was this guy who had presented him with such a fine opportunity; right now, he was almost certain this was an excellent timing, yet he dared not show it. If Liang Dong were to find out, he couldn't imagine whether an enraged Liang Dong would tear him to pieces.

At this moment, they felt profound regret—regret for ever provoking this freak. They dared not run, nor could they run; they could only wait for Liang Dong's disposition. This feeling was truly agonizing.

"Fire Blast." As Liu Hao's voice fell, the Dratini changed its move, executing the far more powerful Fire-type ultimate technique, Fire Blast. A massive flame in the shape of the Chinese character for "fire" surged forward abruptly.

Fortunately, Lin Feng had always held a nominal position at his gravel yard, and his previous relationship with him had been quite good, making them practically insiders. Relying on this connection, Wang Nan directly handed his gravel yard over to Lin Feng. Though phrased as a gift, it was essentially a form of partnership investment.

"Yet we know our own limitations and would never foolishly attempt to seize the magic crystal!" the tall, thin man sneered.

In particular, the destruction wrought by various radioactive thermal weapons and the like severely disrupted natural stability, causing the loss of the heaven and earth spiritual Qi and rendering the already scarce spiritual Qi even thinner.

No sooner had Lu Feiyang finished reading the text message from Silver Mountain Technology Company than the computer speakers on his desk began to ring with a continuous succession of ding-ding-ding sounds.

Thinking of this, Uncle Li gradually began to channel his pseudo-battle-qi throughout his entire body, gathering it into his left arm before launching a fierce assault on Chen Tian.

"We cannot simply sit and wait; let's go down and help rush-repair the circuits first..." Liu Yang waved his hand and was the first to step into the hoisting cage used for the mine shafts.

In a flash of lightning and flint, the Purple Dragon had already closed in. The Ancestral Dragon Bead had elevated his combat prowess to the Immortal Lord realm, and wielding an offensive supreme treasure like the Immortal-Sovereign weapon, his overwhelming might could truly be described as unstoppable.

"Is that so? No wonder the elders in our tribe say that dwarves and we Night Elves are the two oldest races in existence on Azeroth," Soren said with a sudden realization.

"Lord Guild Master, someone is outside requesting an audience, saying they have come to fulfill a promise." At that moment, a guard walked into the room and spoke respectfully to Cather.

Yet, this video unexpectedly implicated Liu Hanwen and Bai Chengzhang, as well as Li Changsheng, the political commissar of the municipal public security bureau. Curiously, it omitted the very people he hated most, Zhang Yimin and Li Yibin. Would Mayor Zhang be displeased by this?

Kid was overjoyed upon hearing this, and immediately instructed several of his subordinates to find the guild's chefs to prepare a meal. Meanwhile, he escorted Cather, Kingus, and Feiling to his private dining area.

"Then how am I supposed to return?" Cather tucked away the seeds, suddenly struck by this problem. He had arrived guided by Cenarius, but with Cenarius no longer by his side, Cather was forced to inquire about the method for leaving the Emerald Dream.

"Can Mayor Li no longer recognize my voice?" Ye Feng said faintly. Accompanied by the Poison God, he slowly emerged from beneath the ground, causing Li Xun's gaze to instantly freeze in place. Li Xun stared at Ye Feng with venomous hatred, mixed with intense astonishment—Ye Feng was actually not dead?

Yang Bu悔 blushed deeply and protested, "Sixth Uncle is just talking nonsense. Mother, aren't you going to discipline him?" With that, she covered her face and fled.

Seeing that nearly everyone had arrived, Song Yichen also walked down from the upstairs. Catching sight of him, the crowd immediately shifted their attention, knowing the good show was about to begin.

Even if he were to diligently practice this technique of unknown utility, he would first have to strip off his combat boots and other gear, which demanded a considerable degree of physical flexibility.

Chen Yu tossed the branch in his hand into the campfire, then uttered a remark that left everyone deep in thought.

Zhang Peng was getting fired up too. He had been cultivating quite well when the Ninth Uncle dragged him along to study physiognomy, only to spend an entire year enduring scoldings here!

The sky was dreary and overcast, and a salty sea breeze blew against their faces, the air thick with an aura of death and decay.

Descending to the ground floor, Lu凡 discovered that the first-floor lobby was in complete chaos. Everyone was clustered together, arguing noisily, occasionally punctuated by someone shouting that they were the CEO of some conglomerate.

In the days that followed, Jiang Yan continued his routine of practicing fist techniques in the courtyard every morning, and going to the back mountains to chop firewood and gather medicinal herbs in the afternoon.

After chatting idly for a while longer, when Jiang Yan and his companion wished to take their leave, they were vehemently urged to stay by Qin Huaimeng. Helpless, the two had no choice but to agree to spend the night.

"Rest assured, as an Ultimate-level Archangel-type Digimon, would I ever harm her?" HolyAngemon said with absolute confidence.

"I'm going to hunt down the Cheetah Team of Qi as well!" Seeing that everyone was talking about wiping out Qi's Cheetah Team, Zhuang Zhou chimed in.

When Ye Chun expressed his wish to unconditionally open up architectural authorization, Ou Peng was deeply shocked and hurriedly stood up to dissuade him from such a notion.

Take humans as an example, for instance! If we treat a human as an individual entity, we can divide them into infinite parts. A person is composed of limbs, flesh, blood vessels, internal organs, and so on. Subdivide them further, and they can be split into countless more parts.

Chen Yujiao's figure flickered, and she had already appeared ten thousand meters away. Her formidable strength was thus vividly apparent.

"Since they have already reached the blood pool, why haven't they returned?" He Li asked with a hint of disbelief.

Mai'er placed the baby on the square table and headed to the kitchen. From the kitchen side, the distinct sound of Mai'er gulping down water immediately echoed out.

The two continued onward, and after leaving the summit of Tiandu Peak by a considerable distance, they suddenly felt a heavy weight press down upon their entire bodies.

"Apologies for interrupting your train of thought. Next, won't you introduce the situation of the Ancestral City over these past years?" Xiao Xuan spoke up once more.

Chiba Masako's face flushed a brilliant red, knowing full well that her voice sounded rather alluring. She hurriedly clamped her mouth shut and reined herself in.

"Fine." Xu Muchen glanced at Song Nuanqing with a look of disbelief, and with a dejected expression, went to open the safe.

Only the whistling of the wind and the magma fireballs plummeting frantically from above the Abyss of No Return answered him.
