In the evening, Shen Ji hosted a banquet at his residence to welcome Yang Jing and his companions. Lin Xiaoxiao and Xu Wan also stayed behind to join the dinner.
Affairs between men are sometimes very simple.
Lin Mang had only been brawling with Yang Jing and the others that afternoon, but by now they were already mingling together, exchanging cups and toasting one another.
Dagang stared intently at Yan Li, his eyes practically welling up with tears. To suppress his surging anger, he could only let out muffled whimpers.
"Don't tell me you're sorry!" Ah Dai suddenly roared, and with that shout, forced the tears right out of his eyes. "Don't tell me you're sorry! The one who should be saying sorry is me!" Ah Dai cried, his face covered in tears.
It wasn't until Eunuch Fu's voice sounded nearby that he suddenly snapped back to his senses. He had long heard that Lu Xueleng, the Crown Prince of Jingcheng who was notoriously fond of young boys, was temperamental and unpredictable; seeing him today, the rumors were indeed true.
If the members of the Xia family were to learn of this, wouldn't they spit a mouthful of old blood? To think that a dignified elementary Profound-grade aerial spiritual weapon was actually being used as a shield?
Lin Ji didn't even bother to look. Gathering spiritual energy in the soles of his feet, he stepped down with the force of a startling thunderclap, using the explosive thrust of his spiritual energy to launch himself flying away. Gritting his teeth through the sharp, burning pain in his soles, Lin Ji forced himself to endure it. Such absolute decisiveness was truly unmatched.
With a flick of his finger tapping against the arm where Hongmei was gripping her dagger, Hongmei felt her entire arm go numb the very next moment, and the remaining butterfly knife was once again in Xu Yixuan's hand.
There was a reason why Li Tian chose this place as the spot to halt the Xiongnu. Because here, there were three lines of defense.
Following the direction of Qiqi's pointing finger, it was the legendary roller coaster, which happened to be one of my favorite rides.
My mother prepared a lot of things for me, packing them into my backpack. Even though I might not use most of them, it was the thought that counts. After putting on the protective suit, I quickly strapped the pack on. Its heavy weight felt just like having my parents right by my side. Everything was ready.
Li Zhi was left speechless. I wanted you guys to help me come up with a way out, but why is everyone either advising me to die or urging me to perish? Do you all want me dead this badly? At this rate, the enemy won't even need to breach the imperial palace; I reckon I'll be done in by you guys beforehand.
He was merely expending a slightly larger amount of resources now. With the Netherworld Veins and the Netherworld Eyes on his body, coupled with the Extreme Yang Physique and the Extreme Yin Soul, consuming a few more Qi Condensation Pills was entirely reasonable. Moreover, only by laying a solid foundation could one travel far in the future. Thinking of this, Zuo Jun's heart finally felt a little more at ease.
Chu Feng was deeply worried and reluctant to see Feng Yuerong perform the Possession Technique, unless it was an absolute life-or-death emergency. To deal with that Taoist priest now, it would be better to use alternative methods.

The sudden appearance of a youth in black robes caught Zuo Jun's attention. What struck Zuo Jun was that this person was short in stature, only about five feet tall, and looked rather tender in appearance, yet Zuo Jun did not dare to lower his guard.
"Because in my eyes, you are already a dead man...!" As Yang Kai said these words, he reached out with his palm.
Using the Black Pearl to capture treasures would easily turn sworn brothers against each other; naturally, the Black Pearl had to be used with caution, avoiding it whenever possible. Thus, the Black Pearl did not unleash its mesmerizing confusion! The Black Pearl only exerted charm to bewitch the soul.
He was merely going through the motions of escorting people now. If he were to accept Cao Peng's money, he would completely lose face.
Zimo, who was in the midst of eating, thought to himself upon hearing this: idiots truly are idiots. A divine weapon meticulously crafted by the Master Craftsman over many years of consumed energy, and they want to use it to hack at each other! He immediately turned around to snatch back his own sword.
"I know this has nothing to do with you; it was he who set me up." He looked at the stamped booklet in his hand.
"It's alright. Or could it be that you think muscles are bad?" Tang Zhihang suddenly broke into the first smile I had seen from him all day. It came so abruptly that it made me feel as though this fellow had turned back into my former self.
On the contrary, some people with ordinary cultivation levels often looked at "Doom's Leisure" and found this unsatisfactory or that displeasing, itching with the urge to teach him a lesson.
Li Ru smiled without a word. In this world, playing the fool is easy, but how many can actually deceive the world and cross the sea? Other people are not idiots; could they possibly fail to see what you are trying to do? Therefore, everything requires skill, but Liu He's flaw of "unfilial piety" probably came at a rather hefty price.
To avoid being spotted by the lookout bandits, Leng Wushuang purposely chose a hillside as the battle site, which allowed them to elude the eyes and ears of the watchtowers on the mountain. Never had she expected to be trapped right here.
The protagonists Narushima Ryo and Togi Kimihira walked behind, seemingly paying no mind to the things being discussed.
The directions pointed by their attacks were mostly aimed at the Sky Boats' weapons. Just as the Winged Tribe members rushed toward the weapons—some hadn't even arrived yet—the second wave of attacks had already descended.
Once he failed to survive the heavenly tribulation, those people wouldn't make any money at all and would undoubtedly curse him.
The Fairy of a Hundred Flowers deeply regretted her actions now. Had she chosen to cooperate sincerely with Shen Longxuan from the very beginning, things might not have turned out so badly. Besides, why on earth had she been bewitched by some impulse to listen to Shen Longxuan back then, sparing the Azure Dragon and Iron Man?
The moment he stepped onto the spiral staircase, he made up his mind, leaving nothing but an expression of resolute determination on his face.

The King of Dongchuan snorted coldly, "Are you scared just because we're preparing equipment? They have them, and so do we..." The main point was that they could retreat and defend; whether they came to places like Liaoxi or not didn't matter.
With this lineup, it was far more grand than when Eusébio took office at Cottbus or when Li Tie and Yu Hai joined the club.
The Iron Snake rolled onward, crushing the enemy relentlessly until it finally looked like a massive lump of scrap iron. A long streak of blood was dragged across the ground, and those not yet dead emitted feeble, agonizing wails.
"No need, I'm not hungry. You guys go ahead. Since it's the weekend, you can take Xuanxuan out to play for a while." Jiang Yingyue shook her head, only looking at her work schedule. If she wanted to leave work early and go home, she feared she would have to forgo all her meal times.
Ji Zei was a fast friend, but Xiang clearly didn't have skin as thick as Ji Zei's. He let out a mumbled grunt and stepped back to the side, remaining completely silent.
No, what was she thinking? Ah Jie had betrayed her; why pity a white-eyed wolf like that?
Xia Ying tightly grasped Zuo Yu's hand. Qi Shijiao looked calm on the surface, but she still hid somewhat timidly behind She Bei.
"Yueyue, why are you so smart!" Lu Hansheng couldn't help pulling her close and planting a kiss on her red lips.
"Huh?" Xu Minghao was not very satisfied with her reaction. Shouldn't she let out a loud scream and catch the villain?
You must know that before Ji Zei arrived, these six chieftains had already fought covertly and overtly for several rounds.
"Erya was in a rush to run downstairs to see Sanya just now, and she missed a step, tumbling all the way down from upstairs. Her hands, legs, and face were all injured from that fall. I wanted to take her to see a doctor, but she insisted on seeing Sanya first!" Nan Mingxin said from the side.
"If you don't fix it, I'll make you dead right now." Wan Qiu's words immediately forced Brother Qiang to concede.
Although they couldn't shatter stone spheres with their bare hands, they could project their internal energy outward. When fighting, releasing internal energy externally could play a significant role.
