When hunting, the giant soft-shelled turtle lies in wait along the shallows, retracting its head into its shell until only its eyes and beak are exposed, launching a fatal strike once its prey draws near.
A man in black had appeared in the room, yet the man busy painting seemed completely unaware, or perhaps he had noticed but simply did not care.
Li Bin approached the indentation in the rock wall to examine the square box closely. It was icy to the touch, and the material appeared to be iron, embedded firmly into the stone.
Upon hearing this, I was gripped by panic and hurriedly tossed the yellow cloth aside, protesting that I could not touch black dog blood. The little black sphere scorned me once more before opening the cloth, immediately revealing the birth date, time, and name written inside.
No sooner had Xun Yi departed than Huang Ying hurried over. Seeing her master with Shen Qing, she frowned, intending to approach, but Su Wan stopped her with a gesture.
Fairy Ling Xiang rushed over to catch the falling corpse, a gleam of joy in her eyes. It was she who had incited everyone to come; she had to preserve this prize to make amends for her past mistakes.
Chu Jiangnan’s gaze also fell upon Qiqi. The pain and hatred in Helian Ye’s eyes could not be faked; even though he tried his best to hide it, such agony remained impossible to conceal.
Xun Yi lowered his head and wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth without a word. With a bruised palm print on his face, he flew to Gan Pingzi’s side with a calm expression.
I grabbed the head and bolted toward the stairs. As the weight of it settled in my hands, I nearly threw it away in horror; the very thought that it was a human head made me feel sick.
Meng Xinyao looked down in curiosity, examining her body from top to bottom, moving her limbs casually, and couldn't help but smile happily.
Furthermore, after so many years of war in the Hengduan Mountains, Five-Flavor Grass had long since been picked clean, making it a rare find indeed.
Liu Zhennan grew suspicious and hurriedly opened the parcel, only to find a circular black metal medallion engraved with the character "East."
Currently, aside from exceptionally rare spirit pets, the situation is such that any spirit pet capable of human speech must be of the Earth Realm, though not all Earth Realm spirit pets can speak.
Beyond the shrapnel, there was the scorching blast of the explosion, burning like a furnace and searing away much of the fur on my body.

Uncle Ming said, "Zhanlu and Lixue were both forged during the Spring and Autumn period by Ou Yezi, the most famous swordsmith in the world at that time."
Moreover, the gods have lived for endless ages and are far more knowledgeable than a young man like him could ever be.
The first to wake was Lu Fangliang. He opened his eyes and surveyed his surroundings, realizing he was the earliest to stir.
As it turned out, the newly established Vermilion Bird Dynasty in the south had invaded the Great Zhou to the north. Declaring war under the pretext of avenging their kin, they crushed the remnants of the Duke of Song’s forces in a mere twenty days, capturing the Ning, Jian, and Lu prefectures of Nanzhao Commandery in one stroke and bringing their army to the southern borders of the Shu region. The territory once held by the Duke of Song’s insurgent army had been reduced to only the Hezhou area and a few adjacent counties.
"How could it be simple? Big brother, look at the seawater. Whose sea is red?" Walles asked, feeling depressed.
The body of a zombie exists outside the Three Realms and the Five Elements; it is an anomalous entity, bordering on the immortal and indestructible.
Jun Fei let out a mocking laugh. His hand reached for the case by his feet, his fingers tapped a button, and in an instant, a silver-gray rifle appeared in his hand. He turned the barrel, pointing it directly at Tsukiyama Shuu.
Mu Chun unwrapped several beautiful Western-style dresses and hung them on an exquisite rack, then added a few digital watches, deciding that was enough.
She never sensed that as Shi Liu lunged toward her, a dagger’s cold light emerged from her sleeve the moment she drew near.
Yu Jiaojiao thought, "..." She suddenly realized that even if Gu Sirui retired from the military, he wouldn't starve; his acting skills alone were worthy of an Oscar.
Although she felt that adding poison before gaining Ye Chuning’s trust was a bit premature.
"Is something the matter?" Anyone would feel uncomfortable being stared at so intensely.
He San snorted and said no more. Though he appeared rebellious toward everyone else, he was uniquely obedient to Jing Huan.
As a man of spirit, to be threatened with such things and for that threat to be put into actual practice.

However, she had only drawn a rough sketch. She had a bit of talent for art, but she didn't know much about design.
The man’s "thing" was pointed right at the top of her head. If she had been a second slower, she could have already been heading down the stairs.
At this moment, He Suoyi was resting in the palace. That reckless act from the other day, while causing no substantial physical harm, had ultimately left her body quite frail.
Guan Yuan was incensed by her, glaring viciously before throwing the money on the floor and storming off in her high heels.
"Yaoyao, let’s go back." As soon as Chen Xiuyuan entered, he saw Lu Yaoyao with her head bowed and assumed she had grown impatient from waiting.
But regardless, this was indeed a viable way out; NetEase Technology had reached the end of its rope.
I wiped my face fiercely with my sleeve, my eyes dry and aching. I panted, walking aimlessly, nearly on the verge of a breakdown.
I was dumbfounded. Jiang Linfeng was staring intently at Shen Zhiqiu’s exquisite and delicate profile, completely oblivious to my inquisitive gaze.
He had just harvested a good amount of produce infused with spiritual energy and intended to combine it with some nourishing, heat-clearing medicinal herbs to prepare a medicinal meal for his family.
Wang Weiran swallowed subconsciously and opened his eyes in a daze. As he realized what had happened, a scorching heat rose on his bruised, swollen cheeks.
Ye Ziqing was overjoyed and nodded repeatedly. "Understood, understood!" As she spoke, she kept thanking A'Jiu, Ping Fen, and the others, making everyone feel a bit embarrassed.
