Qian Kaifu rubbed the cards in his hands with a flushed face, finally let out a long sigh, and tossed them aside.
Although Shang Yang and Yaoyue spoke in low voices, given Shen Gui’s cultivation level, it was impossible for him not to hear them—in fact, Yaoyue had no intention of hiding it, otherwise she would have communicated via telepathy.
Wei Jiu was more than happy to accept this praise; he took a cigarette from the drawer, and Qing’er had already prepared a match.
With the guarantee of Leina’s absolute loyalty to the Emperor secured, a great weight was finally lifted from his heart.
To be unfettered, free, and able to do whatever one wants at any time without being subject to the control or restrictions of others—this seems simple enough, but upon closer reflection, it is incredibly difficult. A person’s life is inevitably subject to all sorts of constraints, with someone always there to manage or restrict them.
The four men wore kasaya robes, appearing compassionate, with a light of wisdom flickering in their eyes; they were truly enlightened monks.
Of course, You Hun only dared to think such things in his own heart; it was impossible for him to say them aloud.
After seeing off Boss Wang’s family in the afternoon, Sister Ma also took leave, which meant that from today until the end of the New Year, this place belonged to Guo Ke.
Once everything was prepared, he wrapped the meat in leaves and mud and threw it directly into the fire. After that, there was no need to fuss over it; he just let it burn.
They had discovered traces of the Twin Dragons on the river. The duo was currently with Xiang Yushan, Liu Heifa, and Susu, making their way toward Jiangdu.
Perhaps it was because his cultivation was far superior, or perhaps because the man was cooperative, or even because he had prior experience in controlling Zhen Shan, Zhang Chao managed to establish a connection and take control of him without much effort.
The two members of the Xue family hurriedly appeared, rushing to offer their apologies to Yu Linglong.
However, the corpse before him was different; it belonged to a reincarnator who had traveled in their physical body, and a B-rank one at that. Studying this corpse would be of great help to Zhang Chao.
Many students loved computer class because computers were valuable items back then. Few families could afford one, so everyone wanted to take the opportunity to see them during class.

"Don't act rashly!" the leader warned loudly, fearing the others lacked the sense to hold back.
In truth, eight taels of silver was quite a sum. Commoners only used copper coins and rarely saw silver. Three taels could buy an ox, and eight taels, if one lived frugally, could support a family of three for an entire year.
Next, amidst the tension and suspense deliberately manufactured by the reporter, they tested the inverted mineral water bottle half-filled with water one by one.
Seeing its attack was ineffective, the carp soared into the air, let out a howling sound from its mouth, and lashed out with its massive tail toward the burly man.
To think that just as they were about to leave the territory of the Thirty-Six Islands, the Gull Emperor had emerged to stir up trouble again, and had even brought along the Jade-Faced Demon King.
Judy nodded. Fang Shi belonged to this category, and as a psychic, he could communicate directly with the soul of Vice Principal Sun Hai.
Hunching his back, pulling in his shoulders, and wearing a sycophantic smile, he extended his hands and walked toward the puppet crossbow in Ouyang Ruofeng’s hands.
"Report: the opponent has repaired the protective net. Our personnel deployment is now being monitored in real-time." The ten-minute jamming session had ended; from now on, it was impossible to monitor the personnel in District B unilaterally.
He could only sigh for Xu Tian; was such a talented prodigy truly destined to die like this?
The disciple of the Gongshu Sect who took the stage also possessed only Qi-Refining level cultivation. He carried a wooden kite, walked to the center of the arena, and began his performance.
On the Eastern Battlefield, the Blood Sea Demon Sect led the other four great demon sects to attack the Qiankun Sect. This battle proved much more difficult, lasting three days and three nights without a breakthrough.
A fierce light flashed in the barbarian’s eyes, and with a roar, his stature surged even higher.
The surrounding scenery blurred past like a phantom, and Sophia finally appeared in Ye Xiao’s eyes.
"Young Leader, this subordinate was wrong, truly wrong. I will reflect on my mistakes, I will reflect properly." Kun Jiang, who had always considered himself extraordinary, began to kowtow desperately.

She babbled an answer of "speak," though she wasn't ready yet, explaining that she could feel she possessed cultivation techniques, but was currently unable to practice them.
Take Old Man Huang, for instance; he traveled everywhere, constantly doing all sorts of things. The so-called "good deeds bring good rewards" was something he only said to me. To Old Man Huang, he didn't care about such things at all; he just did what he wanted to do. How could he have the energy to scheme for a reward?
I didn't speak, and she instructed us to rest for a while, as we had been traveling all day, while she sent her subordinates to search the surroundings.
"Do you see that ahead? Those are all members of the Night Hawk organization, so as soon as any outsider enters, they are immediately discovered," Joanna said, pointing into the distance.
Many experts privately speculated that in this era, the most likely person to achieve the Dao was the Martial Venerable, Ye Qiu.
I thought it was boring and didn't say anything else. Call it what you want; it didn't really matter. We just sat there, and as we were in the same room, the atmosphere began to grow strange.
"Bleep..." Seeing the situation take a turn for the worse, the Purple Phoenix dropped the platinum crystal and swooped down from the nine heavens, wings flapping.
The Americans had tried to kill him time and again; it seemed the time had come to settle this grudge.
Undoubtedly, if the United States took action against the Southern Savage Wasteland Alliance, it would lead to flames of war and widespread suffering. Although the U.S. had been forced into retreat by China, it remained a behemoth to those nations.
As the two were chatting, the teenager appeared at the entrance of the building across from the SUV. He was cradling a soccer ball, wearing headphones, and holding a phone that clearly looked like a cheap knock-off, talking on it while juggling the ball with his feet.
Perhaps Wang Qiang’s actions were directed by those above, simply part of his duty, whereas the Long family’s reckless involvement in the matter, without such authorization, could easily be seen as a transgression.
He not only had to find the Princess within the limited time but also had to do his best to lead the many nobles of the Sheng Tian Empire out of this place.
