Chapter 44: Legend of Zhen Huan, An Lingrong

At this moment, the Empress’s eyes flashed with excitement and anticipation.
Noble Lady Xin, who was seated near Concubine Jing, was quietly keeping an eye on her.
She noticed the Empress’s unusual behavior immediately and gave Concubine Jing a subtle nudge.
Following her line of sight, Concubine Jing swept her gaze across.
She, too, saw the malice and glee shimmering in the Empress’s eyes.
The hatred buried deep within Concubine Jing surged forth instantly, and her own eyes unconsciously filled with a heavy, bitter animosity.

"Then I shall wait for Lu Mantian to host the auction for me." Zhang Lang turned around, waved his hand, and walked off into the distance.

And why, at a time like this, was she still marveling at how well-proportioned her body was? Though her lips were pressed tightly together, her appearance was strikingly handsome, accented by a prominent mole on her forehead that lent her an even more enchanting and wicked air. Why on earth was she pondering such trivial matters?

"Nothing much, I just lack a thug and wanted to have you fill the quota," Qing Ming said casually.

Wuchen, with his usual gentle and modest demeanor, waved his hand and smiled with a laugh: "Everyone, pay close attention to your Sect Master's duel." Only then did the crowd quiet down.

Inside a vast practice room, Zhang Shaofei sat quietly in the center, surrounded by rows of monster toys and Ultraman figures. Sweeping his spiritual sense across them one by one, Zhang Shaofei could definitively confirm that these objects truly possessed life.

Once they had moved away from Yan Qing, Su Shi and Yan Yuli stepped into the elevator. Yan Yuli cast a discontented glare at Su Shi and said unhappily, "What did she say to you?" Because Su Shi was her only friend, Yan Yuli intensely resented Su Shi having any other friends.

Yet he could never have imagined that the Time and Space Daoist merely desired a supreme physical body to resurrect the supreme remnants of his fallen subordinates.

Most importantly, Zheng Chong was confident that his current strength should be on par with Si Wuchen in a fight.

A flash of light later, Zhang Lang appeared behind the heavy gates, and the system prompt rang in his ear: Entered special map, Necromancer's Crypt.

Ding Feng stared fixedly at Zhang Lang for a moment, as if flowers were blooming on his face. Being stared at like that by another grown man made Zhang Lang feel more than a little awkward.

So what if she was a fool? Aside from herself, no one else could understand the desperate yearning for a home felt by an orphan like her. Because she loved Wu Jie, and because she wanted to build a warm home with him, she was willing to sheild her sharp edges and play the fool in love.

Both Shinusada Ninuki and Tadashi Kizou understood perfectly well that this was hardly the time for disputes, yet the two of them still argued endlessly outside the Jiye Valley in such a perilous moment.

In the end, Chang Lianping left with a heart full of suppressed melancholy, though whether his ambitions had truly been crushed by this remained known only to himself.

As for the newly substituted forward, Rudy Gestede, much like Negredo, despite his towering height, the French striker who had spent his career playing for mid-table English clubs was never a prolific goalscorer known for finding the back of the net.

Captain Zhong said, "Not yet. We were originally supposed to meet at Rainbow Bridge yesterday afternoon, but... something came up at the precinct, so I couldn't make it!" I couldn't tell if it was my imagination, but I felt like Captain Zhong was holding something back, as if he were deliberately concealing the truth.

Closing her eyes, she desperately wanted to cry, but her eyes were completely dry, unable to squeeze out a single tear. She wanted to scream at the top of her lungs, but her mouth felt as though it had been sealed shut with super glue, refusing to open no matter how hard she tried.

Upon seeing his figure, the Crimson Wolf chieftain immediately brandished his long spear, his expression turning even grimmer. He was already enveloped in a bloody glow that severely hindered his movements, and coupled with Xu Chen's fierce assault, the consequences would be utterly disastrous.

At this very moment, all the foundational grand arrays of the Heavenly Dao Academy—spanning from the Holy Academy, the Inner Academy, the Outer Academy, and extending outward to connect the eighteen outer rings of the Heavenly Dao—snapped and fractured. Crucial links broke apart, detonating in a unique and devastating fashion.

Right now, Chen Tiger had no choice but to seize every second and quickly withdraw from this spider forest. Yet, the brief glimpse he had just caught immediately prompted the viewers in his live broadcast room to flood the screen with bullet comments, demanding answers.
