Parallel Space-Time (Part IV)
Without saying a word, she dragged Mo Jingyuan along, completely unfazed by the fact that he was her stepson or that he was her direct supervisor. Above all, food came first.
Bai Pianran was inherently delicate and beautiful, exuding an air of fragile helplessness. Standing there in a daze, she effortlessly stirred a strong desire to protect her.
Leng Dianchen closed his eyes slightly, unsure of how to view the current Mo Qianning anymore.
The crushing flesh caused her bones to ache fiercely, nearly leaving bruises beneath the hard pressure. Even though Ye Xinxin tried to resist with spiritual power, it was merely a waste of effort: the moment the spiritual barrier condensed, it was shattered directly by the terrifying pressure, dissolving into a shower of starlight.
"You crude brute! It was indeed the late Emperor's greatest mistake to let a base-born rat like you, with neither family nor background, usurp such a high position!" Viscount Agrit roared as he vaulted over the long table, drew his longsword, and lunged at Sir Pror.
Du Ruo's lips curved up slightly. As she listened to Manager Xu recount his glorious achievements, a trace of chilliness seeped into her heart.
"Remember, do not wander around the palace haphazardly. Look at what you should see, and do not look at what you shouldn't." The next day, as she boarded the carriage heading to the palace, the Princess Consort, dressed in full ceremonial attire, continued to give endless instructions to Ye Qingcheng.
At least her own system wouldn't randomly issue life-threatening missions or plunge her into the kind of despair-inducing horror films.
It turns out that romance can indeed teach someone how to grow. Despair is the fertile soil, and forgetfulness is the sunlight. Having endured so much pain and learned to see through it with detachment, she could now branch out and grow in another direction.
Her older brother was back. Although that eyesore Gintoki was around, he surely wouldn't dare to contradict her. For her brother's sake, she wouldn't give him any trouble today.
Outside the door, Albert leaned against the wall of the hospital corridor, waiting just as he had last time. Seeing Ah Cheng emerge, he turned and led him away.
Chen Dachang was speechless. If Yu Huanzhen wanted to attribute the blame for the defeat at Yinggong City entirely to him and Feng Miaoqin, he would never accept it. Yet, tracing the root cause back to its source, was there truly no connection at all?
Ding Fan had mentioned more than once that the earlier one conceived of unique features, the earlier one made money. Yet hearing him bring it up again now felt somewhat like a cliché.
The pitch-black sword light crashed into the ground, and the flames burning upon it instantly shattered and scattered, transforming into countless streaks of flowing fire that surged in all directions.
Without making Su Yu wait long, Wu Qingcheng emerged from the room wearing somewhat loose casual clothes. She walked straight up to Su Yu and, to his utter astonishment, wrapped her arms around him, pressing her soft, moist lips gently against his cheek.
"She escaped." Yun Ya said every single word with a chilling coldness that made Lu Ming beside him shiver involuntarily, not daring to ask why Feng Miaoqin had fled.
On the surface, this Hu Dekai before them seemed devoid of emotional attachment to his family, but in truth, his eyes kept darting away in evasion as he spoke.
The tall young man gritted his teeth, channeling the elemental power within his body frantically into his saber, and then roared, "Aura Slash!" A three-meter-long aura extended from the tip of the saber. As the young man brought it down in a chopping motion, the energy blade cleaved fiercely into the ground, producing a thunderous roar.
"While I would love to grant your request, my hands are truly tied. Your volume is simply too massive. Though I am capable of opening up a pocket dimension, I cannot possibly fit this spaceship inside it," Su Yu said helplessly.
When Beichen Ming grasped Su Xiaxia's soft and familiar hand, a heavy wave of relief washed over him.
If a real fight broke out, they would more than happy to watch the spectacle. The Red Wolves had half the members of the Black Bears, but each Red Wolf member possessed the combat prowess of two ordinary men. Should a clash ensue, it was hard to tell who would emerge victorious.
They both had food in their backpacks. The three of them ate a little something casually and then resumed their journey.
"Sister Yan, why does your walk look a bit strange? Did you sprain your leg? Let me take a look," Fan Xiaoxia asked with concern, noticing the odd posture in which Cui Jingyan was walking.
Bai Sicong looked as though he were meeting Bai Heling for the very first time; tears welled up in his eyes, and his voice choked with emotion.
With Wei Zilin preferring to keep a low profile, Han Zhuoli did not run back and forth to the recording studio either, choosing instead to direct the process remotely via telephone.
"No problem!" Hearing the final sentence, the guard immediately let out a sigh of relief and agreed without the slightest hesitation.
Perhaps... the reason Li Jiuzhen treated Li Qingge with such exceptional kindness and indulgence was because of their "shared misery"? Fan Yijun speculated, looking at Li Jiuzhen with a deeply altered gaze.
"Sharks! There are sharks over there!" Tang Xiaoxia was thoroughly terrified upon hearing Chu Feng's words.
Half a day ago, Louis had traveled from West Africa to Dubai. Using some unknown method, he tracked down the new hiding place of Divine Retribution and launched a surprise attack.
Zhou BaLa remarked that retired old men had nothing better to do all day and an insatiable addiction to card games. After being scolded by Ran Qiuran for this, he noted that countless business tycoons would kill for a chance to play a single round with Chairman He, as any scrap of insight or resources leaking through the cracks of the old man's fingers could alter the fortunes of multiple generations, yet she was failing to recognize her own blessed fortune.
While helping his teammates farm karmic merit, he was also gradually chipping away at the abyss boss's vassal factions.
The members they dispatched this time were all elite operatives specifically tasked with dealing to Zhu Xiu. With Zhu Xiu absent, no matter how profound Tang He's cultivation might be, he surely couldn't surpass Zhu Xiu, which gave her immense confidence to capture Tang He in one fell swoop.
The most powerful attribute in this game was "Information Vision," as it dictated your exploration progress and event triggers.
She considered herself a remarkably meticulous person, yet in this regard, she still fell far short of Gu Che.
Xu Fu casually plucked a plant from the nostril of a Buddha statue. The root and stem of the plant had grown into the shape of an infant, complete with hands, feet, and a face featuring all five sense organs. As it was pulled from the Buddha statue, it actually let out a wailing cry.
When it came to building an aircraft carrier, they had virtually zero worries; it was merely a matter of time.
For some time afterward, the Phantom Dream Ring transmitted messages to them on several occasions regarding renewed gatherings, but he ignored them entirely, choosing instead to sit back and watch the previous events ferment.
Yet what truly made Uncle Xu suspicious was the exact identity of the individual who had leaked An Xianghuai's whereabouts to Xu Er.
The vast ocean provided him with an abundant supply of food, and these water-monkeys only needed to drink seawater to survive. At this stage, Hugo barely needed to worry about sustenance at all.
