Yet, under such impact, it was both a disaster and an opportunity for Meng Zhao. Just as Empress Dowager Song’s talents erupted only after the Xiongnu invasion, turbulent times create heroes; the arrival of great calamity is a chance for those with true ability.
Shi Zhongjun had barely left when Huang Yaming and Tan Yao, who had departed earlier in high spirits, came running back in a panic, as though they had seen a ghost.
Familiar songs from his previous life, well-known companies, the Four Great Classics, televisions and computers—these things still existed here, undisturbed by the passage of time. This gave him a sense of temporal dislocation, as if reality itself were slipping away. He longed to sleep and escape from it all.
Yang Yi also felt that Song Yu’s hypothesis was rather far-fetched. Taking up Wu Jun’s point, he began to share his own perspective.
During this period, Du Jin found it inconvenient to visit the Xiang family, but she remained in Yanzhou. On her way to and from school, she would follow Xiang Ning to ensure her safety.
“But this is a prop, isn’t it? Is it edible?” Junior Sister Xiao was the epitome of professionalism. Even if she was starving during photo shoots, she would never eat the props.
Peng Ligang couldn’t shake the feeling that something bizarre was afoot, as though some aspect of the situation defied explanation.
Fontana, known as the godmother of AC Milan, had both the figure and beauty to match her reputation. When she revealed she’d been a Milan fan for over a decade, she immediately drew attention and her fame rose another notch.
After such a commotion inside, and with Jingchu having already left, it was clear everything had concluded. Now it was summer, and since Ye Jingsi was so particular about cleanliness, he was bound to take a bath and freshen up.
Swallowing the energy nebula before him and achieving the final evolution to divinity was now his top priority.
Ming Yaochen recalled the interactions between Qingge and Mo Qi in the human realm, and though his gaze faltered, he couldn’t bring himself to voice any objections.
“Mother, what nonsense are you talking about?” Recalling the ‘misunderstanding’ discussed earlier in the guest room, Shandis flushed red, her voice trembling in panic.
“Stay away from me!” At Aaron’s words, Chopper bolted straight to Jesmorimo, shouting at Aaron in warning.
He respected Madam Shen, but that didn’t mean he would blindly obey her or follow all her wishes. He had his own considerations and plans.

The continuous clash of metal interrupted Moros’s speech. A sense of danger swept over him as a flying dagger scraped sparks off the corner wall and hurtled toward his brow at a cunning angle.
“Don’t worry, I’ve already asked Vivi for a pair of adjustable shorts—they’re under my underwear,” Aaron explained.
With that, he changed out of his house slippers, put on his shoes in an orderly fashion, then followed the other three downstairs, boarded the military vehicle, and headed to the base.
Her spiritual energy had not fully recovered; she couldn’t stray too far from the laurel tree to investigate, so she could only ask the Steward for information.
He was seized by a strange feeling, as if Qingge truly intended to settle down with Mo Qi at the Five Spirits Immortal Sect.
At this very moment, the highest and most noble of phoenixes, a divine bird, was quietly tending its wounds inside a most unremarkable waterside pavilion—beneath which flowed the Yin-chilled waters of the Netherworld, the coldest and most sinister in all Six Realms and Nine Paths.
Seeing Gai Xianfan appear, Wan Kunyuan’s eyes widened. Back when he had first joined Sword Gourd Palace, Gai Xianfan was already a legend in the Sword Dao of Nebula State, universally acknowledged as number one. When he later vanished mysteriously, everyone assumed he had died—but now he had reappeared.
Yet that man remembered those eyes, so similar to a pair he’d seen before. When settling those matters years ago, he’d spared a life, but the child had since vanished and he’d never bothered to search.
As the swordsman unleashed his technique, a raging tidal wave crashed toward the Demon God General, forcing him to halt his advance toward aiding the Taint God General.
Qian Ping, as instructed, recounted every detail of the past half-month to Xiao Xiuying.
He actually wanted to hear about their previous lives together. But the thought of it felt odd—like listening to her reminisce about her love for another man. The feeling unsettled him.
Pondering the conversation between the Other Shore Dao Lord and Supreme Hunpeng, Zhang Qian’s gaze shifted to the battlefield before him. He wondered whether the birth of this terrifying battleground was also due to the Supreme Dao Lord.
Though many things unfolding now differed greatly from his past life, the fact that Li Mei returned home for casting was exactly the same as before.
While out earlier, her uncle had tactfully left with the master to avoid being a third wheel. Yet she hadn’t seen them on the street. Her uncle would be at tonight’s palace banquet as well. After these few days together, Nangong Qian knew her uncle was a carefree, somewhat unreliable soul.

Still, when faced with such supernatural, inconceivable events, as long as a seemingly plausible explanation was offered, people would subconsciously choose to believe it.
“By rights, the matron’s funeral should not have been this hasty. Did something unexpected occur?” Xiao Xiuying inquired softly.
Just as Aiko Sanada had anticipated, the building’s layout allowed for an unobstructed route directly to the top floor from her side. However, what she hadn’t foreseen was that the rooftop had been entirely outfitted with high-strength organic glass.
“Bull Million!” Seeing his dejected shuffle down from the notice board, I seized the moment, stepping up to give him a hearty pat on the shoulder.
Technology had advanced so far that humanity could conquer space, yet remained helpless against these monstrous beasts.
The barrage continued relentlessly for over a minute. Realizing something was wrong, the silhouettes of the natives and treants dispatched by the Ten-Thousand-Year Demon Tree King began to emerge all around, their numbers no fewer than several dozen.
“Squad Two, protect Lord Si! Squad One, attack with me!” The captain of the palace guards leapt onto his horse, his aura murderous as he drew his sword and led the charge.
Just as Fang Bai’s mind flashed with this thought, he was astonished to realize there was already someone nearby.
Haotian’s words, shouted not only to rally his own men but also for the ears of the alliance of rival guild players across the field.
Li Chaofan’s heart gave a jolt. He immediately cried out to Shalina while simultaneously directing his mental powers to cleanse her life force.
