Chapter 30: Terror

Just as he had anticipated, the moment his words fell, Qin Cang’s expression turned pitch black. A surging rage ignited within him, and as he looked at Wang Chen, he could no longer restrain the killing intent radiating from his eyes.

"What did you say to Yue'er!"

Though he longed to tear Wang Chen limb from limb, Qin Cang forced himself to maintain his composure to continue probing for news about Leng Yue'er.

...

With the Saint Sovereign of the Heavenly Pool watching from the outside, Lin Yun dared not touch the Azure Dragon Divine Bone recklessly, but once beneath the Dragon Transformation Pool, he could finally let his guard down. Yet, as the Rainbow Bridge appeared once more this year, a sudden, unexpected touch of green—a flicker of hope—emerged upon the Deer-Stalking Mountain in the Deer-Stalking Battlefield.

Lin Reyu asked with a touch of shyness; had they not been locked in a tight embrace, Lin Jingyi surely would not have heard a word she said.

Lu Su could not spare a thought for anything else; his only goal was to hold the line at all costs and capture Jianye first. Could the enemy commander truly intend to charge a wall with mere cavalry?

"Grand Elder, what are you saying?" Liu Lin was momentarily bewildered as to why the Grand Elder would utter such preposterous nonsense.

Damn it, the sky was dim, yet Bian Mei could spot a centipede in the grass fifty meters away. Her keen eyesight and accuracy were truly superhuman; even after drinking his Bright-Eye Decoction, he could not manage such a feat.

By the time she reached adulthood, the procession of suitors coming to the Hushi Tribe to ask for her hand stretched for miles, and even the monarch of a great Eastern kingdom sent envoys to bring her into the imperial palace to enjoy a life of splendor.

Thus, Sang Ying grew acquainted with the downtrodden Mei Lingfeng. During that time, she exhausted every means to rescue him, only for her efforts to wash away like water. Yet, on a whim, Mei Lingfeng became sworn siblings with Sang Ying.

The Tang soldiers made no hasty moves, standing quietly on the stairs and peering into the open rooms. Though the view was blurred, it was easy to spot those who had not been infected. It would be truly tragic if, just as they opened a door, several creatures lunged from the shadows behind them.

...

Zhang Lie wore a playful smile; upon seeing Lin Yun, he seemed far less agitated than before.

The common folk were bustling about. It must be said that during their time in Youzhou, Cao Cao and his men had sacrificed much for the people, and in return, they had won a great deal of public support.

As they spoke, the Azure Phoenix descended before them. Before the group could ask where she had been, they were startled by her face, which was deathly pale and drained of all color.

Chi Yuan’s gaze sharpened. Seeing Li Shengzhi sitting quietly to the side eating, he could not help but turn and glare resentfully at Han Qu.

Ye Jinmu was disliked by no one, which did not make his cousin happy. With so many people fawning over her, his cousin felt quite overwhelmed.

"I hope we can stay together forever, growing old in each other's arms! Since we were fated to be husband and wife in this life, let us be loving partners in the next! I do not ask to be born on the same day, but I pray we die on the same day! Liu Qing, can you promise me this?" I whispered emotionally into his ear.

Therefore, when Dugu recounted the sequence of events, the infuriated and distraught Xue Zhengtan conflated the two matters entirely.

At this moment, Yang Xing’s profundity and unpredictability even seemed to slightly surpass that of the talented disciple named Luo Yu. However, he also understood that Luo Yu was still young, like a pearl yet to be buffeted by the tides. If Luo Yu were to grow until the age of twenty-five, his strength and temperament might not necessarily be inferior to Yang Xing's.

"Don't cry, it's all my fault." Song Weili felt a pinch in his heart, a needle-like pain slowly spreading to every corner of his body. They were clearly in love, yet they were caught in an invisible cycle of mutual torment.

"The high tower of the noble family?" Third Master Yuan looked up at the structure. The tower was brilliantly illuminated, acting like a beacon in the night, yet after staring for a long time, he could discern nothing unusual.

In fact, he had long decided that holding an employee meeting here would be the perfect opportunity for an encounter.

Han Jian acted like a spendthrift. After plundering vast amounts of grain and supplies from the south, the Northern Dynasty’s troops were well-equipped and amply provided for. Winter rations, clothing, and bedding were all prepared, and with more supplies being transported from the north to the south, Han Jian toyed with Yangzhou like a cat playing with a mouse, launching a war of attrition.

"..." Chuxia stared in bewilderment as Dr. Huang vanished from sight. What was that supposed to mean? Wasn't it said that Director Huang and her teacher were at extreme odds? Why did it feel like he was so concerned about her senior sister?

"If I were to create something flawless, would you believe it?" Scrooge asked, his expression unchanging.

...

"Damn this garbage logistics. It’s not even Singles' Day, and it’s been over a week since I placed the order, yet the goods haven't arrived. I must leave a negative review!" Scrooge thought to himself.

Having never dealt with Ling Zui before, Qiu Yelun did not know his temperament and struggled with her phrasing, not knowing how to begin.

"Oh, oh, oh..." Chuxia replied repeatedly, indicating she understood. She could certainly grasp his perspective; to reach such a level by the age of twenty-five, how could one be anything but intensely focused on their profession?

"The story about the cup spilling water by the bedside is absolute nonsense. In reality, she was sitting on the bed brushing her teeth with Zhou Mikang’s toothbrush and cup, and when she heard the door, she got so nervous she spilled the water all over the bed."

"However..." After a long silence, Zhou Mikang said, "Some say that at the riverside that day, there was not only Jing Zhe and Zhuang Yuning, but also another man."

Qin Chuan waved his hand again, and the Demon Dragon Sword, wreathed in black lightning, descended from the sky to strike Qin Hai, the sword qi and electricity tearing at his body.

Shen Sen saw that Luo Zhenyuan’s expression was poor and shook his head with a frown, while Jing Chi wore a faint smile, waiting to see what Luo Zhenyuan could come up with.

If Loki could survive a space storm, it must have been because Thanos intervened. By what right did Zhang Lan expect to survive a space storm? With just a thick skin?

She and Fu Siyan decided on the matter as they talked, while Ning Xiyang and the others nearby watched on in anxiety.

Listening to the cheers of "Hero!" around him, Soya felt a wave of secondhand embarrassment and hurriedly dragged Filina back to the inn, drawing a round of laughter from the townsfolk behind them, not to mention many resentful glares.

As for this particular combination, Otsutsuki Kaguya only looked at them with disdain, her nose turned up to show she thought nothing of them.

A sexy, low chuckle reached her ears, and the warmth of his breath against her earlobe made Ning Xiguang shiver.
