Volume 1: Main Text - Chapter 37: Saying One Thing and Meaning Another

Then, his tone softened: "A misunderstanding! A complete misunderstanding! I attended the first lecture Meng Ke, the talented scholar, gave at the Jixia Academy. He did mention the name of your grandfather, the elder Yang Zhu, and his philosophy of 'not pulling out a single hair.'"

However, fearing that Yuan Sandao might not hear him, Zhao Feilong transmitted his words directly into Yuan Sandao’s ears.

Because when it comes to cultivation techniques, while some might discard them like worn-out shoes, most people regard them as their very lives.

Their attention remained fixed on the battle between the three masters of the "Yuan" generation and the white-haired old man, Li Kun.

She longed to announce it to everyone openly, but as she had yet to receive official recognition, she had to suppress her joy and excitement, her eyes fixed unblinkingly on the arena ahead.

Once the Supreme Elder finished speaking, the Celestial Clan, a democratic race, finally had a legitimate taste of democracy.

When the Lord of Wolf Mountain City heard the commotion, he was shocked to find that four legions and several hundred chariots had already reached the city gates.

"Then I shall play with you a while longer." Wang Hao waved his hand, signaling for Garchomp to bring it on.

Since humans are but one species among all things in heaven and earth, then humans should be heartless. Do objects have feelings? Do beasts have feelings? Therefore, humans are heartless as well.

He had only been suspicious before, but Ye Chen's words had clearly confirmed his speculations. He decided that once he returned, he would dispose of Chiba Mako, the treacherous wench who dared to betray him.

The alchemists of the Qing family were mostly low-level practitioners. To perfect their craft, most focused on refining only one type of pill; thus, one could easily tell who was being so wasteful based on the types of discarded pills found.

"What is this? Do you think those herbs weren't worth my using?" Xue Qi puffed out his beard and glared, shouting at Qing Yankui.

"Then you take last place, Boss!" Huangfu Yichen laughed as he overtook Guo Nianfei’s car. Guo Nianfei didn't mind, and Li Bai sat with a smile, crossing his legs.

However, everyone soon realized that the rules had changed to a random draw for matchups. They assumed it was impossible to alter the order of competition under the watchful eyes of the guests, and thus, they had to allow the strongest to face one another.

Yet, the rise of the human race had cast the once-supreme dragons and phoenixes from the heavens, leaving them at the very bottom of the seven great powers in this realm—a fact that left this proud race in a state of perpetual resentment.

Faust’s eyes lit up as if he had realized something. He looked toward the other three pillars of light and discovered a bronze ancient sword floating inside each one.

An ordinary person had no chance of survival against a seventh-grade martial technique unleashed by someone at the fifth stage of Qi Condensation! However, it was too late for Qing He to intervene.

Liu Fan was the most pleased. With a population of three million, if he disregarded the cost and pursued a policy of militarism, he could organize an army of over three hundred thousand.

Zhang Yi did not want so many people to be injured. Her intentions were simple; she merely wanted to outshine Xue Min.

"Boom!" After trading a blow that ended in a stalemate, Raelad and Black hesitated not for a moment. In just a few breaths, they had exchanged dozens of strikes.

The villager is undoubtedly our lifeline now, so he must not encounter any trouble.

The Great Demon’s expression changed drastically. He never expected that even with three of them guarding the post, they would still be attacked. Having lost two Great Demons in succession, his own aura began to wane; although he remained in the Life-and-Death Mirror realm, he no longer held his former terrifying presence.

The Emperor looked at Shangguan Wan'er, who seemed to be feeling better. Her father's corpse still lay in the main hall, and he could sense her deep sorrow.

After Chen Xueshan was satisfied and fell asleep, I quietly carried her back to the room and laid her on the bed. The sofa couldn't accommodate two people, and the bed would be much more comfortable.

"The fossils discovered in the past were only partial fragments of Deinosuchus. It was only after people pieced them together that they realized this animal had once existed in the world."

The captain took out a scanner, slid the screen, and held it steady with both hands, pretending to take a photo while scanning Helen, though no light was emitted. The scanner also featured communication and optical recording capabilities.

The crashing of the seawater against the shore sent waves splashing several meters high. The wind in the darkness sounded like the final whimpers of a beast—tragic and unwilling.

A man, as long as he was of normal orientation, would surely avoid such a thing at all costs! It was so disgusting that one would get goosebumps just looking at it; who wouldn't run?

The captain nodded and said, "If there is a chance in the future, I will certainly introduce her to you. Would you mind if I took your picture?"

Looking at the situation, anxiety was useless. We couldn't sprout wings and fly down, so we had to wait patiently. The rain was indeed heavy—a downpour, one might say. If it continued like this, I feared these few tiles wouldn't be enough to keep us dry.

This realization left her mind blank, her lips turning pale and trembling. Who was this person, and how did he end up in her bed? She instinctively pushed hard against the man, but with a cry of "Ouch," it was she who ended up on the floor.

Yanzhou was located to the west of Guchen City, near the sea, and produced high-quality porcelain. Although it was not far from Guchen City, the forces there were completely different from those in Guchen.

"What are you surprised about? That I'm a rare, good man? You don't think so?" Zhou Mingjian’s eyes were bright. He leaned in, his low voice making the surrounding air feel somewhat intimate.

"That annoying thing?" Tao Hua felt she could barely breathe. She had to study hard and work to pay off her debts, and she used every break between classes to organize study problems for him. How could Prince Hao call it an annoying thing?
