Volume 1, Chapter 24: Just Wanting Someone's Company

Old Man Qian: "The trade-in price is now only 3,999, and it comes with a free intermediate radiation detector."

Lin Yuyu’s mouth twitched. She felt this little old man was aiming precisely at her wallet; the pile of mushrooms she had just sold had only fetched 3,900.

Since she could control the changes in the material's properties, she might as well go wild and fight her. Could she really turn flesh into steel?

Amidst the guests' boisterous chatter, Qin Liu faintly heard the shrill, desperate cries of Old Man Li.

Old Fan could no longer hold back his tears; with trembling hands, he grabbed Liu Jie and shoved him toward the spot pointed out by Zheng Yun.

She had seen Mo Bai’s aura surge just moments ago, so she naturally knew that Shen Ping’an had acted to protect her.

The guards left behind shouted in shock, and those who had just exited rushed back in. But a grandmaster of his stature did not earn his fame for nothing; despite being caught in an explosion, he suffered only minor injuries.

As Cheng Yifei spoke, he tapped the virtual screen on his left arm, swapping his luxurious silk robes for a gray cloth tunic, and also purchased a pair of jade bracelets and a gold chain.

No wonder, no wonder they couldn't find an exit no matter how hard they looked; it was right above their heads. No wonder his whole body ached when he first woke up—he had been dropped from above.

It wasn't that Father Jiang hadn't tried to beg for mercy, but the other party refused to let Jiang Yuan go. They hadn't told Jiang Zhi because they were worried about her working hard away from home.

There were many vacant houses in this village. After the mortal men settled them in, they took their leave.

The retreat route was suggested by Lu Xu; after much discussion, it was deemed the most circuitous yet optimal path. In truth, this step was unnecessary, as according to the bounty rules, if Xu Yi could steal the item without triggering the security alarm, it would be considered a success.

Moreover, they were indeed in the wrong in this matter, though being in the wrong could be overlooked—after all, might makes right.

For him, the old man's health was of the utmost importance, so naturally, the first batch of Foundation-Strengthening Pills he refined had to be given to his grandfather to try.

Among the seven great clans, the Taiyuan Wang family followed closely behind the Boling Cui family, and thus, Wang Ding always stood on Cui Bo’s side.

In reality, the Marvel universe only has Earth-level events, cosmic-level events, and multiverse-level events, rather than character power tiers.

Sheng Qiao lay in the arms of her paper-husband. Her tears had stopped, but she hadn't quite recovered, still hiccuping intermittently.

To change people’s perception, one must first defeat and kill Dracula, but as long as that perception remains unchanged, it is impossible to truly defeat and kill him.

Wang Fen did not often dine at high-end restaurants like Jia Tianxia. Having made a guess, she could only look toward Director Luo. Sure enough, she saw him holding the new menu and asking the waiter if the dishes were new arrivals. Wang Fen cursed silently in her heart.

Watching Li Shimin’s furrowed brows and restless demeanor, a flicker of imperceptible worry flashed through Zhangsun Wugou’s beautiful eyes.

Because Guan Yi had promised to take him along, she didn't intend to treat him as an outsider. Seeing that Jin Mu was unharmed, she didn't vent her anger on Qiu Sheng, though Qiu Sheng had a sharp tongue—even sharper than Jin Mu’s—making every conversation with him stifling.

Sweet-scented spring water, milky-white fruits on stalactites, ferocious merfolk, deep underground river channels, swarms of bizarre creatures, a desperate dash for survival, and danger at every turn.

Over the past decade, flying cars were no longer rare. Though not yet commonplace, he had managed to secure one, even if it meant halving his collection.

Inside the wooden gymnasium, there were two large floor-to-ceiling windows on the outer wall, through which sunlight spilled, casting iridescent halos.
