0120 First Encounter
However, Xie Yihuang truly had a robust constitution, showing no signs of allergies and able to eat anything. It was just that some foods were hard to swallow, like fish mint, which she disliked mainly because of its fishy smell. Fortunately, her family rarely bought this; in the entire Qi family, only Qi Jianshe enjoyed fish mint. But since Qi Jianshe got married, he returned home less often for meals, so such dishes were prepared less frequently. As for dining out, that was another matter.
Yet, when she rushed into the adjacent room, the scene before her tore at her heart with unbearable pain! Her younger sister lay naked on her back on the bed, tear-streaked cheeks pale and lifeless, breathing long ceased. Blood stained the sheets beneath her, and her body was covered with horrific bruises and scratches. Most chilling was the deep finger mark pressing into her neck.
The fat dog did not want to be abandoned by this era. Though he despised those who spoke with guns, the current circumstances left him no room to refuse.
I deliberately observed those around me to ensure no one noticed Mu Meiqing and me. The dim lighting made it difficult to discern any hand movements unless one was near the prince or the bald men by the large screen; elsewhere, only faint reflections remained.
That punch thundered through the air as expected. Du Lu’s style was known for its sheer force and ferocity, and this was his ultimate technique—majestic and overwhelming. At the Immortal Palace, several corners of an iceberg crumbled, and the snow beneath cracked open a vast chasm.
Had this been before, Gui Rong would never have dared act so boldly, especially with Chen Baihu watching from above. He wouldn’t risk angering someone even more ruthless than himself. But now, things were different.
Seeing such a burly, imposing man shedding tears so openly before him revealed the gravity of the situation. Hou Tian could only comfort him by patting his broad shoulder.
Though unsure of the Flying Thunder God’s activation mechanism, Daitong Musharen instinctively tried to keep these kunai at bay.
The so-called computer room boss was a mere rumor; few took it seriously. Maybe it was just because I often fought there during my first year of middle school.
It was a pity, though—the Lin mercenary group seemed to still be recovering and had no plans to hunt beasts, which was somewhat disappointing.
Several glaring headlights illuminated the embracing couple, casting them in a golden glow before plunging them back into darkness. Only then did her sobs cease.
“So many?” This exceeded Zhong Yun’s expectations. He hadn’t anticipated that the ‘Su Xuan Pearls’ would be so valuable. During their stay on the Free Star, besides retrieving the seed of the World Tree, they had placed the ‘Su Xuan Pearls’ in the auction house.
Of course, this did not surprise her too much. The heart of the Flower Sea was no place for just anyone; only the refined and wealthy had access.
Wave after wave of voices rose like tides. Everyone knew the greatest contributor to this victory was Gu Chao, the acting military strategist.
Li Mo took a still life photo and began editing it with a filter named ‘Picasso.’ After over ten seconds, the server returned the preview result.
Fortunately, the human leadership understood what kind of person Jiang Yang was. His skills were truly uncanny, so among the sincere voices of Dikakain, Akara, and other powerful beings who truly cared for the human world, Jiang Yang’s safety was temporarily assured.
Two months later, the first phase of the project was finally complete. They could finally break free from the routine of working by day and studying by night. No more daytime work was required.
The Jin soldiers, who already lived on the edge between life and death and held the utmost fear and reverence for heaven and thunder, once again knelt en masse. Only this time, their prayers were no longer directed at the Eternal Heaven but at Li Min standing before them.
