Volume 1, Chapter 64: Kiss Me
The moment an imperial prince was born, the Emperor would personally select youths from the clans of the imperial guards to follow the prince and ensure his safety. Xi Shan and Ning Shi were two of them.
That Zhan Ning liked her and possessed a high level of loyalty was a fact. She did not believe that Zhan Ning would betray her, and his current attitude mostly stemmed from a sense of shame.
Because he knew that Yu Ji's handling method was also correct. Even if he told her, what could she do about it?
The Heaven-Destroying Emperor held a black piece, following the seemingly useless move Ye Luo had just made, and began to play.
However, because Elder Tu had not yet stepped into the Xiantian realm and was unable to sense the existence of the vital energy of heaven and earth to begin the cultivation of the nine revolutions of the jade fluid, he still taught Elder Tu a technique for "refining vital energy into divine spirit."
The Modilo family had been the Counts of Naples for generations, which meant that even the royal palace of the King of Naples was actually built upon their territory.
"Are you surprised, Eldest Brother?" Qi Han glanced at everyone kneeling in the mourning hall, the corners of his lips curling up slightly.
The executing elder's heart was on the verge of collapse; he had never fought such a stifling and grievance-filled battle.
"I remember your name is Qin Hao," Qingming said as he stepped off the boat, without condensing his spiritual power, indicating an intent to negotiate.
Given her true identity, she would never have been able to enter the palace; otherwise, with her pampered and willful disposition, would she have ever condescended to disguise herself as a maidservant?
"I have no objections, as long as the two of them are happy." Ou Yuntu's entire focus was on Hongdou; as long as Hongdou was happy, he was satisfied.
Chen Rong was wearing a low-cut long dress, allowing me to easily catch sight of the fair and alluring cleavage, so I was not joking—it really was deeper than her scheming plots.
The expected chill did not materialize; what met his touch was a patch of softness. Qin Hao could not help feeling a surge of wild joy. He reached out to stroke the cheek of the maiden Qin Shuang again, and the texture remained springy and soft.
Watching that fake Tantai Yuxue apply another layer of skin to her face and begin applying makeup and sketching, Mo Jiuling inexplicably felt a sense of disgust. Such a person was truly utterly repulsive.
NERV is a special agency directly under the United Nations. Below is a brief introduction to the organization's overview.
Such things had happened not long after trouble struck my family, but my sister-in-law's attitude back then had been resolute: she would neither return nor remarry. However, as time passed, I had no idea what her current thoughts might be.
She believed that Tantai Liuying would most desire to see the hearts of the people in Lingnan scatter, as such a time was the prime opportunity to exploit a vulnerability.
Nangong Yuhuan smiled and said nothing more. The three of them drank freely for a while longer before dispersing. Early the next morning, after the morning bell chimed, Nangong Yuhuan intended to leave the Chunhua Palace and hurry toward the Ministry of Dance.
The so-called Soul-Guiding Scripture possessed the function of summoning and guiding souls, and was generally used to lead departed spirits down to the netherworld. However, it could also bewitch the minds of the living.
They were purely courting death. Of all the people to offend, they chose to cross someone whose heart held nothing save slaughter and more slaughter.
In an instant, three elderly men charged forward, various sword beams humming with a terrifying resonance that could easily sever a person's head. As experts at the late Foundation Establishment stage, they certainly possessed genuine strength.
At this moment, however, the potency of the Void Spirit Pill within Chen Fan's body had not yet dissipated. The pill itself contained the profound mysteries of space, and as it was continuously consumed by Chen Fan to infuse his spirit, his spatial rules and light grew slightly brighter.
Han Xue and Xue Yue searched all the way along the bank, shouting Lin Hao's name as they went, yet they never received any response, nor could they catch a single glimpse of him.
Over this period of time, he had already copied out the new version of the Great Strength Vajra Palm technique using Chinese characters. Fortunately, martial arts manuals of this sort did not contain many words, so it did not cost him much effort.
Yet just as the Hanzhong army had fallen asleep, the familiar rhythm and the familiar sound shook the heavens once more—the Nanyang army had returned to harass them! This time, the Nanyang army waited for a full two hours before launching another raid. Fearing that this harassment might turn substantive and lead to a direct siege, the generals of the Hanzhong army hurriedly ordered the soldiers to get up and prepare for battle.
"Very well, I shall not disturb you further! Stay peaceably at Breaking Heaven Peak; I have already contacted Ning Weixin of the Myriad Stars Sect to come protect you tomorrow," Ji Fanchen said as he stood up, then turned and left.
After emerging from the cave, Nie Feng happened by chance to hear the news that the Giant Whale Gang was about to surround and kill Bu Jingyun, and rushed over in a hurry. He arrived at precisely the right moment.
When Huang Zhong saw Zhang Kui deploy his formation, he had already prepared himself to step forward and engage in combat at any moment. However, seeing that the Hanzhong army had merely deployed their formation relying on the city walls and showed no intention of advancing, he was momentarily quite bewildered.
"Senior Brother Gu jests. Your disciples are all brimming with vital energy and possess clear spiritual platforms, strengths to which the disciples of our Radiant Sun Valley are quite inferior. Although this is a sparring match, should anyone be injured, it would pain us both. Let us simply forgo the match, forgo it entirely."
Ruojun sighed inwardly, said nothing more, and got up to sit before the vanity table, letting Cuiliu comb her hair.
Following the voice, an arrogant, round-faced youth in his early twenties swaggered over. With a pale complexion and puffy eyes, he looked at first glance like someone excessively indulgent in sensual pleasures. Behind him followed several thugs with similarly upturned noses.
