Volume 1, Chapter 29: I think this purple one has a more elegant charm.

"No chance," Yatina refused decisively. "My magic as the Demon King is not for the sake of putting on a show for you."

"Actually, ever since you grew larger, you haven't had any mana left to cast magic, have you? Tsk, and you say it so righteously."

The heavens were cooperative; what were mere scattered raindrops a moment ago suddenly intensified, and while not yet a torrential downpour, the rain fell with great urgency.

Leaning on a wooden staff, Kanji Ishiwara looked at the Chinese soldiers preparing for an offensive a hundred meters away and shouted loudly to those around him.

"Pass the order to the Taibai Jinxing: he must persuade the Tathagata Buddha within three days. Tell him that I, the Jade Emperor, am willing to grant him one condition!" The Jade Emperor curled his lips into a cold sneer and huffed.

Spending the first night in a fishing village was a truly brilliant move; it could shake off any pursuers, and it was clear that the water route to the headquarters would have special measures, ensuring that even if he arrived, he still would not be able to pinpoint the location of the headquarters within Dongting Lake.

A year had passed. Li Yu had not changed much, but today, dressed in white, he still looked rather dashing, and his tone toward me was quite respectful.

"Sir, this is to ensure your safety. We are just trying to make a living and following orders, so please be accommodating," said the guard.

"No way, you can actually do that? Wouldn't that have a bad influence?" Now that it was to be done so openly, Luta became somewhat apprehensive.

"Exactly. Only the family council can convict us for what we have done," another Gired player said.

At times, Stalin would cast a suspicious glance at General Zhukov. The Chief of the General Staff’s brows were deeply furrowed; he was a man of great depth. His voice sounded as if it had been measured by precision instruments—calm, stern, and allowing for no compromise. Could he imagine whether this indoor wargame would have any real effect?

Although Liu Yihua now knew both of her older sisters, and he and the second sister had even become close friends who told each other everything, the third sister—whom he had met first—seemed to have become a stranger.

Zhou Song pointed to the people from Eton College who had already successfully registered at the sign-up point nearby and questioned the bespectacled man.

Therefore, as time went on, she learned to be silent, to suppress, to conceal, and even more, she became accustomed to no longer expressing herself.

As his body flickered, his robes fluttering in the wind, the Great Sage Bull Demon King had already teleported dozens of meters away. At the same time, he extended his right sleeve, intending to sweep the Nine-Leaf Lotus into it.

"You—" Yi Chen could not utter a word. He stared at Xu Lin, his vision filled only with her red lips continuously opening and closing.

It must be said that, often, Anle was much more sensible than Sophia, as she could, to some extent, guess what Adam was thinking at that moment.

Perhaps they could not do anything to him within the Dao Sect, but once he left its boundaries, even if he were lucky enough to avoid them once or twice, they would find him sooner or later; this was beyond doubt.

Before she lost all face, she hoped to leave this suffocating place—she could imagine the tone her mother used when pleading with Yi Chen.

However, Zou Cheng was clearly accustomed to this tactic. Seeing the punch, he did not panic; instead, he drew a circle in the air with his right hand, unfolding a barrier that blocked Lei Xiao's attack.

Long before the signal flare was triggered, the Lich King knew that things had exceeded his expectations. Wang Hao and the others had escaped his control and had even begun opening the Gates of Hell to depart.

Not far away, a brilliant flash of light suddenly erupted. Amidst a spray of blood, the Thunder Clan warrior who had just charred A-Hu to a crisp did not even have time to scream before he was torn apart in terror, along with two other Thunder Clan warriors who met the same fate.
