Day Twenty-Four

"The world wall you mentioned..." A look of bewilderment crossed the old woman's face. She pondered for a moment, then shook her head.

"Speak your mind. You wouldn't come here without a reason. Why have you come? Is it about the matter between you and my Imperial Brother?" Princess Kayun Youmeng asked first. Though she had not attended the banquet, she was well aware of what had transpired there.

"That matter certainly requires an explanation, but I, as the Alliance Master, must wait for someone to arrive before we can speak properly. It seems he has been delayed and has not yet reached us," the Star Alliance Master said in a resonant voice.

Ding! The black metallic sphere gave a clear chime and began to rotate, a faint fissure appearing on its seamless surface.

Whoosh! Two beast-like figures emerged from the two great gates, their forms taking shape as half of their bodies pushed through, letting out heaven-shaking roars toward the giant.

Someone took this quite contentedly as a sign of "never leaving, never abandoning," feeling a warmth in his heart and a sense of self-satisfaction.

Chu Ge also relished this feeling; being with Ye Li was always so serene and cozy, leaving his entire mind and body feeling deeply relaxed.

Hearing Qin Ruojing say this, Chu Ge instantly burst into laughter, feeling sure she had done it on purpose. He imagined Qin Ruoying must be gritting her teeth right now, preparing to settle the score with her sister later.

Immobilized and unable to move, Fu Yang was trapped, while the fairies wore expressions of triumph. This was, after all, the foundation of the Flower Fairy Palace, something ordinary sects could never produce.

When the captain turned the corner and arrived at the scene, he was stunned. He saw Wang Chao acting like a monster, using bone spurs growing from his body to feed on the blood of his own team members.

Xiao Feng was in the X-barracks, polishing his "Black Angels." The two Black Angels had returned to his side complete once more, though they were now stained with blood.

As the road turned, the street suddenly became incredibly wide. In the distance, it was visible that this path led straight to the inner city of the Ice Ancient Capital. On both sides of the street, soldiers stood shoulder to shoulder, fully armed and tense.

Of course, compared to Da Gu, who had been distracted and failed to notice the situation ahead, Lina, sitting in the passenger seat, did notice—a figure had collapsed behind the Sherlock in front of them.

Regardless, it was rare for Yiqi to return, and he shouldn't treat him this way. By the time he returned to the county school and they met again, it would likely be summer vacation, at least two months away. Furthermore, they had just had an argument; if they didn't see each other for two months, what if it affected their friendship?

He felt as though he were lying on a soft and comfortable bed, and everything his eyes beheld was so magnificent and exquisite that it hardly seemed to belong to the mortal world.

It was easy to open; there was no need to pry out the coffin nails. The three of us stood at three different positions, inserted the heads of our shovels into the gaps, and began to pry the coffin lid open bit by bit.

After greeting everyone, Shincheng boarded the cockpit of the Snow White to prepare for the test.

The oversized automatic rifle held by the giant was even more powerful than the machine gun on the stray dog's shoulder; a single bullet could completely shatter a dinosaur's skull.

Ai Ye had never expected such a situation to occur. She wanted to stop it, but was momentarily flustered, and could only open her mouth in terror, watching the sharp beak of the Black Phoenix lunge toward Du Qianjie's face.

Therefore, he had no choice but to have Jiangqi Qianhe show her support from the sidelines; otherwise, it would take a very long time to truly achieve a successful outcome.

Han Feiyu muttered "as expected" to himself, then revealed a pleased expression. Come to think of it, he had truly been waiting for this opportunity! A test? What did he have to worry about regarding a test?

The chaos near the town gate was like a paused recording; even the mayor forgot they were friendly forces, almost thinking they were about to storm the gate, and subconsciously shrank to the side.

There was no need to mention the affairs of the rear camp, but the movements of the forward camp required Luo Kaixian to take them seriously. After all, the lives of hundreds of his men were at stake, and this was the first time he had allowed his subordinates to act on their own initiative.

Bei Hai turned the boat with ease, aiming the bow toward the incoming waves and letting the vessel rise and fall with the swells, beginning to admire the rare scene.

"Was he taken away?" Leng Xuan gritted his teeth. He had intended to face things alongside Zhong Ping, but he never expected Zhong Ping to use the Bridge of Heaven and Earth to send him away.

The three people in the treehouse had already risen early. No one in Mo Ye's family was a late sleeper; even 11, the former professional assassin who was accustomed to staying up all night, had unknowingly developed the habit of waking up early. Their lifestyle was truly exemplary.

Consort Yan returned to her residence, the Purple Bamboo Pavilion, her mind reeling with the words Concubine Liu had just spoken.

Not long after they left, Leng Xuan lowered his body, preparing to return to the side of the Medicine King. However, at that moment, two blinding rays of light suddenly erupted beside him.

"Yes!" "Got it!" Three or four men, also wrapped in white bandages, responded as they helped each other over.

When Empress Xia emerged from the palace and saw Xiao Wanci, although her face betrayed nothing, her mind was full of thoughts.

Because the army of demonic cultivators was pressing down on them, the eight major sects seemed distracted, and the level of the disciples taking the stage was uneven and far inferior to their usual standard.

The wheel-like ball of light exploded halfway toward Hangu, as if it had slammed into a transparent wall.

Cheng Yan was both humiliated and aggrieved. He hadn't seen his sister strike him in years, and he truly wanted to have a real fight with her, but he... lacked the courage.

Especially Xiao Mingyi, who had just claimed Lin Yang was courting death; his face turned from red to blue, embarrassed to the extreme.

After the giant's attack using the power of the Five Elements was intercepted by the shield they had conjured, it was blocked.

Tao Tianche struck upward with a backhand, forcing Shangguan Yun to withdraw his stance to protect himself. Then, he thrust his sword toward Shangguan Yun's thigh, while Zheng Tiandu seized the opportunity to strike at Shangguan Yun's throat, his left hand transforming from a palm into a blade to slash at his right shoulder. The two of them joined forces, their offense fierce and filled with lethal intent, clearly aiming to kill Shangguan Yun.

Li Zhichen frowned and pointed a finger. An invisible sword qi shot out, instantly colliding with the white screen. Upon impact, the invisible sword qi was like a drop of water falling into a pond, rippling across the white veil without having any effect at all.
