“You...” Principal Wang’s gaze darkened, his facial muscles twitching, his fist tightening beneath the table.

Alan watched Ye Tian’s explosive muscles with a burning gaze, stretching his arms and legs as he spoke provocatively.

Everyone’s contribution points were deducted in turn, and then they entered the cultivation chamber to begin their search.

Zhong Li Mu knew that Qiao Luo Yu was offering comfort. Though her heart was touched, the knot on her brow remained, the sorrow in her heart unresolved.

Dark Demon Powder is colorless and shapeless; when burned by flames, it releases toxins that unconsciously envelop a warrior’s true power... If one does not actively channel their true power, they might not even notice.

After repeated incidents like these, Ye Tian was pleased to see that most of the sanctimonious do-gooders no longer dared to show themselves.

To welcome Lü Bu, Governor Han Fu of Ji Province vacated the former residence in Ye City once belonging to the Ten Regular Attendants’ Zhao Zhong, settling Lü Bu’s household there. The provincial government provided him with cloth and gold at his disposal, ensuring a life of luxury.
