Jing Lin’an licked his lips, his eyes nearly glued to An Qing’er, causing the old emperor to frown slightly. As advanced cultivators, we can naturally perceive the presence of soul forms, yet our own existence remains invisible and undetectable to anyone in the entire Sixth Realm.

Ancestor Ling Yun gazed at Ye Yun in a daze. At this moment, even he could not foresee how far this disciple would rise, but he was certain that Ye Yun’s future accomplishments would surpass his own, becoming an unparalleled powerhouse of the Taiyi Immortal Sect.

“He’s a young, handsome man. After rescuing me, he flew back behind Lin Mo, floating respectfully—no doubt one of his subordinates! But for some reason, Lin Mo lingered above the school,” the pilot replied.

The heavens and earth seemed to tremble, as endless streams of spiritual energy and demonic aura intertwined. Waves rippled across the sky, as if threatening to tear apart the world itself; the aftermath was nothing short of astonishing.

Abandoning the palace at such an hour to drag the emperor through the brothels—this queen’s behavior was rather irresponsible.

Later, when Bai Zhufeng went abroad and Bai Ran was busy with work, Bai Momo became almost invisible, never forgetting anyone yet never reaching out, even though she lived in the same city.

Yet now, whenever Bai Momo recalled Lu Zhancheng kissing her on the street, she found it romantic. Whenever she closed her eyes, it was Cold Zhi’s deep affection that filled her mind.

If it weren’t for the superstition that death on New Year’s Eve is unlucky, Ji Canglan would have already turned this place into a river of blood.

Athletes don’t win solely by equipment, right? Strength is paramount. Using scientific training methods to enhance one’s power is the key to victory.

Ning Yue looked closely and realized these were the few people left behind by Zuo Qiusi from the cave. Originally there were over ten, but some were missing now. Those present wore sorrowful expressions, their gazes fixed on several sculptures. Ning Yue finally saw clearly that these sculptures encased the missing few in ice.

Now he was starting to gather energy again, but this required time. He ran toward Lin Haonan while simultaneously charging his power.

“Who are you? Eastern King!” Wang Chaoyang frowned, squinting to see who stood beside his BMW X7. When he recognized the figure, his heart sank completely.

With that, the figure of the eldest brother vanished in place. By the time they saw him again, he had already entered the area thick with ghostly miasma.

Outside, relentless howling winds swept through the snowfields, sounding like thousands of horses galloping, accompanied by roars and explosions. Under these ferocious winds, the void itself shattered utterly, leaving no intact fragment.

Desperately scribbling on the paper, tears streamed down uncontrollably. It was as if he was trying to escape something. The results of an entire afternoon’s effort were destroyed by his own hands. He broke down, facing life and death for the first time.

“That outer sect servant disciple escaped without much effort, indicating his martial cultivation is at least at the fifth stage.”

He first tried to move forward, though awkwardly. Then he stretched his arms. After a while, Ning Yue took a deep breath and finally regained his original sensations. However, the spiritual energy within his dantian had vanished without a trace; his cultivation was gone.

Wei Dahu was clearly a tough and straightforward man. Despite his wounds, he didn’t even frown, confidently pounding his chest and speaking loudly.

Bai Ye snorted coldly and spared no mercy. He chased after them, sword raised, cutting down three in the blink of an eye. The brown-clad man who had previously complained wasn’t spared either; his throat was severed.

In less than a year, he rose from having no rank or grade to being a third-rank official in the current dynasty—a feat unprecedented in the history of the Great Song.

“Pass me the ball!” O’Neal moved to the backcourt, snatched the basketball from James, and began dribbling. He provocatively beckoned Sun Zhuo to guard him.

Looking again at Zuan, his parents could only see layer upon layer of suffocating pollution and rampant crime, but Ek could see the vibrant city behind it all, brimming with energy and potential.

Zhang Xiao continued, “By coincidence, I ran into Brother Xia on the street, blindfolded and wandering.” It seemed Xiahou Ti had only told him the surname “Xia.” “I thought I couldn’t just ignore him, so I took him along.” Xiahou Ti smiled slightly, letting him speak freely.

“All beautiful! But today especially so, like a celestial fairy,” Lu Xiao exaggeratedly made a flying gesture.

Both were from the entertainment industry, sharing several mutual friends and having met before, so sitting together, Jessica couldn’t avoid talking to him.

Luke Walton kept pacing in place, trying to catch Phil Jackson’s attention.

Gaia raised a hand and gave me a sharp smack. “Flight type Rant, Shadow Hunter isn’t suited for monkey business. With your skills, you surely wouldn’t be picking flowers. The ones pulling us off the cliff must be you three... then we’re definitely going to fall to our deaths.” Immediately, everyone cast suspicious glances.

Tang Wei was the first to get out of the car, entering the villa without paying any attention to Xu Yixuan, leaving him in the car. Xu Yixuan opened the door, got out, grabbed his big bag, and followed inside.

When Duan Shulan returned from the café to the Wu residence, she put away all emotions stirred by He Yehua and Yang Li. Linlin was still missing, and the family business was in turmoil—such trivial emotional matters paled in comparison.

“If you can’t stand him, just kill him,” Han Yang said. He knew that with someone like Brother Tang, if you didn’t take him out once, he’d be like a pesky fly, constantly bothering you. The simplest way was a slap to put him down.

It was a rare clear sky on Grace Star. He looked up at the dazzling sea of stars and slowly closed his eyes, hoping to forever etch this moment deep in his mind.

“Shut up.” The man snorted, then struck Hu Qiao’er on the back of the neck, causing her to faint immediately.

“See? Isn’t it true?” I looked toward a corner, where four police officers, the stout Principal Li, and homeroom teacher A Chao Hong appeared, all sweating profusely within everyone’s view.
