Volume 1, Chapter 24: Mu Fan’s Ambition to be a General, A Single Word Commands a Million Troops

He felt a lingering fear, fortunate that this student, Song Hao, bore him no malice; otherwise, he would have faced a catastrophic end. In truth, aside from the precise number of Destiny Points, the other data on the light screen held little utility for Gao Cheng. The combination of the second-grade Rock Flame and the strength of the eighth level of Body Refining allowed Zhou Hao to hold the Ice-Tailed Scaled Snake in a death grip.

"No! Brother Tian will be fine, I have to go find him!" Upon hearing that Ling Aotian’s situation was dire, Lu Long could no longer sit still. With a flicker of motion, she charged toward the Tower of Saint-Breaking, intent on entering to find him.

In the North City, Wei Yan had already ordered his massive army to surround it completely. Furthermore, he had dispatched Liu Pi specifically to guard the North Gate.

He looked so solemn that it felt like an evening news broadcast rather than a late-night entertainment talk show.

In an instant, the cave was transformed into a simple dwelling. Deep within, a cloud bed formed from ten-thousand-year mysterious ice appeared. Having experienced the World of Investiture of the Gods, the Laws of Water that Gao Cheng had mastered absorbed the insights of the freezing laws, enhancing many of his frost-based supernatural abilities.

The four players each had different things to say. If they were to be viewed as a team with divided responsibilities, his role was clearly to gather intelligence.

Ming Yi, Qin Lin’ai, and I stared at that nameplate, our eyes widening in disbelief.

"Sister is fine, she’s just a little tired and wants to get some rest..." I was indeed exhausted. Those matters weighed on my heart like Mount Tai, leaving me no room to breathe.

Suddenly, he seemed to be poked in a sore spot and burst into wild laughter, looking nothing like a Ghost King should.

Lai Su, the Magistrate of Yingguan County, led the local officials to bid farewell to Lu Bu. Thousands upon thousands of Han people across the entire county came spontaneously to see off the royal army.

She told him not to look at her if he had nothing to do, but his gaze followed her like a shadow, burning so hot it made her entire body tingle.

Their conversation seemed simple, yet it was clearly a display of their respective stances, concealing conflicts beneath the surface, as each sought to win more favor through this issue.

Wu Qiong was a criminal police officer; even if he hadn’t seen it, he had heard of it—this was what they called having one's hamstrings severed. Startled internally, he let his thoughts slip: "Serves you right! This is retribution, I suppose. Oh, forget it, forget it, put your shoes back on, you stink!" As he spoke, he covered his nose.

Half-dragon transformation was an innate skill; the cat form and human form were both products of shapeshifting. They were merely different skins for the same hero, with no fundamental difference.

They realized that only by uniting could they stand against Ye Chen and have a better life.

Xu Mo was about to say something else when the location where the three pillars of fire had erupted just moments ago changed drastically. Nine pillars of fire erupted simultaneously, causing every player present to shudder instinctively.

Their lord, Chen Dan, had just explained the rules of the competition: they were to select two hundred and fifty soldiers from the nine hundred and fifty eliminated in the first round to join the three elite units, totaling twelve hundred men.

But he could not flee, so he had no choice but to scream shrilly for his soldiers to come and save his life.

If not for the fact that the youth was dressed in fine silks and possessed an elegant temperament, and that the Poké Ball he used was of a very high grade, causing him some hesitation and worry about the youth's background...

An old servant under Dong Zhuo heard the knocking and, with Dong Zhuo’s permission, opened the gate for Wang Yun and Diao Juan.

High-difficulty special effects were handed to Weta Workshop, while the tedious, labor-intensive work was left to ILM.

Quickly investigate the recent contacts of all company personnel, especially those in the R&D department and anyone who had contact with this project.

"What? Are you mesmerized by me?" Yan Qianyi leaned in, her sparkling eyes filled with a playful, seductive smile.

This allowed for greater synergy between factories, and the market concentration in the regions where the factories were located would continue to rise, thereby avoiding the pitfalls of fighting alone.

When Yang Yunxi had just politely declined her proposal, she thought she had humiliated herself, but when those words left Yang Yunxi’s lips, she couldn't help but exhale in relief—although Yang Yunxi had refused the game of chess, she had not refused her gesture of goodwill.

The eldest great-aunt of the Huang family waved her hand and shook her head, yet her gaze could not move away from Huo Sining. Her eyes were full of confusion, as if she were trying hard to remember something, yet she just couldn't recall it.

However, she never expected that this Senior Brother Wang Shuai, for some unknown reason, had been buzzing around her like a bee to honey from the very first day he saw her, which was incredibly annoying.

After Ji Mo released the order for all factions entrenched in the Yuanhuo Qiu Range to withdraw within three months, she left. In the three months that followed, she truly did not step foot in the Yuanhuo Qiu Range again, spending her days happily eating, drinking, and having fun throughout the Central Continent, living a life of utter ease.

Zhu Li’s words were clearly an admission of surrender. Yang Yunxi let out a soft, rather smug chuckle.

The end of the Imperial Era and the abdication of the last king of the Lancaster family were both shadowed by the four great families.

"We are the only ones with two empty seats in the entire carriage. Man'er, won't this be awkward?" Lin Shishi said with a smile.

Huo Sining subconsciously furrowed her brows, wondering why Su Lan had suddenly brought up such an irrelevant matter.

"Haha, of course, we cook differently, but this dish is truly excellent." Wu Fan shoveled down a mouthful of rice and ate a piece of bitter melon, leaving the large pork rib in his bowl untouched.

When Ji Wanzixi returned to the residence of Old Madam Ji and Wanzhen in the capital with a flushed face, it shocked and worried her parents and grandfather, who repeatedly asked what had happened.

Xu Sanlang observed Cheng Xi's expression and breathed a sigh of relief, while inwardly fuming at A-Yi for being a busybody. If he came, he came; he should have just let Zhao Yan shoo them away instead of stopping them at the door and blurting it out, giving him such a fright.

In particular, regarding his affair with Ruyu, not only did they not treat him with prejudiced eyes, but they even kindly offered him advice, as if, in their presence, his relationship with Ruyu was the most normal thing in the world.

It wasn't Miao Guorui’s shift tonight; he only came by according to custom. Whether it was him or Gu Yongshēng, they both made it a habit to peek in here every time school let out.

He not only felt as if he could lift an elephant, but he even felt the urge to take off the glasses he had worn for nearly thirty years. Everything he looked at became incomparably clear—a sense of refreshment that "four-eyed dogs" could never experience.
