Volume 1, Chapter 63: Submit or Die
The next second, Qian Zhong's pupils shrank violently.
I do not know when, but on the grassland behind Chu Lingtian, several hundred people had inexplicably appeared.
These people had approached quietly under the cover of night, and because their attention had previously been focused entirely on the battle, they had not noticed them at all.
"Boss Qian, the situation looks somewhat ominous."
The elderly man with the severed arm narrowed his eyes slightly.
He could clearly sense the bloodthirsty aura emanating from these hundreds of powerhouses.
"Grandmasters!"
"All of them are grandmasters!"
The old man's mouth trembled slightly.
"Seven or eight hundred grandmasters?"
Qian Zhong almost failed to keep his footing.
However, he quickly snapped back to his senses. "Do not panic! These were sent by the Jinling Martial Arts Alliance to help me..."
Qin Lang turned his head gently, his warm lips brushing against her forehead as he kissed her softly, time and time again. In that instant, the noisy hospital ward suddenly grew quiet. Many people looked at them, and though tear stains still lingered on their faces, they could not help but smile.
Early the next morning, Wang Erlei left Gu Feiyu's room, while Gu Feiyu spent the entire day practicing the Immortal Ascension Technique, heading to the Heavenly Fire Lake once again in the evening to condense her heart fire.
"For example, there are many. Which aspect would you like to hear about?" Qin Lang's voice softened as well, his lips brushing across Ye Li's cheek bit by bit.
Qu Ou and Zhang Huawei were probably in charge of things at home, but even so, Su Yishui's strength was indispensable.
The emissary leaped up and cursed angrily, but restrained by Mu Tian's strength, he dared not take physical action, instead returning to add all sorts of exaggerated embellishments to his account of the event.
Xiaoxia was dressed up exceptionally prettily, her hair straightened and dyed a silken blonde, a Louis Vuitton bag slung over her shoulder, and a bag of cosmetics and daily necessities dangling from her hand.
Just as they were unsealing, examining, sorting, and discussing the ownership of the items, Zhang Wan and Eileen walked back carrying takeout boxes filled to the brim.
Therefore, when she had the chance encounter a few days ago—initially intended to negotiate the cold-extraction technology, only to inadvertently discover the potential of nanotechnology applied to herbal plants—Zhao Lingling was beside herself with ecstatic joy.
Just as the crowd was still perplexed, Mu Tian raised the bid once again, pushing the price up to seven hundred million. Once this price was named, even the Stone King hesitated.
The next morning, Xu Fei got up and chatted with everyone in the lounge when his phone rang; it was none other than De Niro calling.
After offering a brief, diligent word of encouragement, Li Zi'an stopped serving chicken soup for the soul or trying to pump everyone up, reaching out instead to press the remote control by his side.
Finally, the day of the college entrance examination arrived. Everyone, regardless of whether their academic performance was good or poor, would draw a period to their twelve years of study on this very day.
From Yi Yi's profound gaze, Luo Xi could not detect the slightest trace of a joke. She lowered the hands cupped around her face, her voice calm.
Thoughts swirled rapidly in Li Zi'an's mind, yet he was not particularly worried. Having been through a previous system upgrade, Li Zi'an knew that the system upgrading would only benefit him, not harm him. Right now, he was actually filled with curiosity as to what kind of changes would occur after the upgrade.
"Hmph, I never imagined that the illustrious Baifeng Tower would have times when it could not produce an item." Seeing this, Tianxuan Ji remained unruffled, continuing to taunt her opponent.
"Sister, I heard that the old Duke has some important token of trust kept with grandmother, is that right? Do you know what token it is?" Yan Ya asked on a whim.
"Yet to inherit the Heavenly Mystery City, one must practice the Revolving Heavenly Palm. You are the only male in our family, and father will have to pass Heavenly Mystery City to you in the future," Tianxuan Ji persuaded.
"Where did this scruffy mongrel come from, daring to question Lord Xia? Guards? Where are the guards? Throw him out!" Ma Tianhao, standing on the stage, felt his anger flare up to the heavens at the sight.
A dozen minutes later, a private jet took off directly from the manor's runway, heading straight for Jinling.
We are all brothers who have risked our lives and fought side by side; if you give him trouble, aren't you bullying us?
Eliran, who was happily singing away, suddenly took this heavy blow, several of his teeth knocked out from the impact.
The man wore a black mask, concealing the greater part of his face and revealing only his sensual thin lips and resolute jawline.
She felt somewhat bashful; just a moment ago she had been cursing him for getting beaten up by Homelander, but now she was cheering for him instead—truly despicable.
With that, he strode toward the Wang family's gates, pausing for a moment as he passed the headless snake demon.
Five minutes passed, and Youning announced the winner as per usual: "The winning user this time is 'Yuanbao Yuanbao's Mother Loves You'." It was precisely Liu Yiting.
At this time, the winter drizzle fell in a fine, unceasing mist, which then escalated into a torrential downpour resembling cascading sheets of water.
Though Wang Hai possessed an elevated sense of self-regard, he still quite appreciated truly capable young people.
Xing Tianze arrived just in time to hear this remark from the imperial physician, looking somewhat bewildered. Cheng'er immediately offered a bow. "Your Majesty." She then withdrew.
That night, Song Nianan saw Ziyuan. The latter was unconscious, with no signs of torture on her body, which finally allowed Song Nianan to set her mind at ease.
This loss of face was colossal. Tu Linya had never imagined that she would always appear so disheveled in Wen Muchen's presence, let alone in such a crowded place.
With them providing protection in secret, even if Xia Wangge were truly abducted, Chen Danggui would be able to track down her whereabouts instantly.
This scene made Shi Na's heart flutter with a hint of panic; this place lacked both emergency equipment and medication.
Zhao Lang's eyes narrowed into slits. With a cold snort, he shifted his body forward, dodging the incoming front kick and steel pipe with exquisite timing.
However, asking the headmaster for leave left Chu Changge feeling rather uncertain, because the current headmaster was no longer Wutong, but someone else entirely.
This price was already the maximum she had prepared before coming; bidding the highest amount right away was meant to overwhelm her opponent in a single stroke.
Though Zhou Min and Chu Baoer knew nothing about cars, the gasps of awe from the surrounding crowd made them understand the immense value of this vehicle.
Yeshen turned to leave, but halfway through, he turned back to glance at Li Changfu—undoubtedly the best explanation possible.
Having originally agreed to stay for just a single day, Gu Qingkuang clung shamelessly to Tao Xiu's dormitory, even secretly defying Gu Qingya's phone calls telling him to return.
At that moment, a sudden change occurred. A patch of water reeds leaped into the air, and immediately afterward, a figure clad entirely in a black waterproof diving suit sprang out from the quagmire.
"Where did all these people run off to?" Liu Xinghao rubbed his bruised head and stretched his limbs. Fortunately, his hands and feet were fine, leaving only a lingering buzzing sensation in his skull.
Liuying laughed heartily and said, "How laughable. You think you can keep me here? Who dies today is yet to be decided." As soon as Liuying finished speaking, a crack suddenly appeared in the void, and an elderly man with graying hair emerged from thin air. The moment the old man appeared, an invisible aura manifested behind him, with a white stream of light hovering atop his head.
"The High Priest's methods... perhaps his decades within the Blood Dragon Clan were all for this very moment!" Buzhi had arrived by Li Jiang's side at some unknown point. The figure in black had vanished without a trace, yet he was utterly helpless against the situation unfolding before them.
The Canran Sword could not bother with other beasts, launching a fierce assault solely upon this wild boar, every single slash aiming relentlessly at the wolf's ears.
