58 The Other Shore Manor

Xu Zhe did not expect his Nether Slash to be decisive on its own; he merely laid a foundation, a groundwork designed to make the First and Second Chieftains subconsciously believe that this was the absolute limit of its power.

At this moment, Li Haonan nodded obediently to Situ Jie like a well-behaved child. Because of the word "additionally" that Situ Jie had uttered, he almost felt like saying thank you to him.

When Liang Dong made sure the chicken was thoroughly cooked, he disregarded the scalding heat, tore off a drumstick, and began to devour it. In the face of delicious food, such a minor detail as temperature meant nothing to him.

Of course, Lin Xifan did not voice these thoughts aloud, otherwise, it would likely have caused Wen Xin to misunderstand.

Last night, as she walked dazedly through the streets, as she lay all alone in the hotel room, she had thought that perhaps the meaning of her own existence was less important than that of her sister. Besides, donating a kidney certainly wouldn't kill her.

"Not bad at all!" Seeing this scene, Wang Zhe smiled faintly. "Is that supposed to be strange?" Lu Feiyang asked with curiosity. Could a dual-blade style really be that miraculous? Why was the other person looking at him with such a peculiar expression?

"I've said it before, I don't fully understand the limits of the Peerless Realm's power, but I know one thing: the Peerless Realm grants eternal life!" Liang Dong said.

Hu Wen pulled the key from the lock, pushed the door open, and smiled. "Sir, please come in." With that, she squeezed past Lu Feiyang ahead of time and walked inside.

Indeed, Yan Guyun bounced and skipped his way into the arena. If this fellow were twenty years younger, such a demeanor might have appeared rather charming. Yet for a man already in his thirties to make such an adorable motion felt comical no matter how one looked at it.

Veins bulged visibly on Bei Dou’s forehead as she gritted her pearls of teeth. A pair of icy eyes flashed with a warning chill as she glared at the damned pixie beside her, struggling hard to keep her emotions and breathing under control.

However, whether someone was a spy or a double agent was obviously not something that could be determined at a glance, nor was it particularly easy to investigate. Only cases like the Illusion Faction, where members were struck down by Xu Xiang, carried genuine persuasive weight. What Eclipse Shadow and Zixun hadn't expected was that they had inadvertently chosen an undercover agent.

Unable to find her whereabouts, the three returned first to the Yonghe Palace. They thought that since Su Jinyu had been able to leave by herself, her condition must have improved considerably, never imagining that she would knowingly walk away and allow the deeply hidden illness within her body to hollow her out completely.

Millie's face flushed crimson and she remained silent, knowing that speaking was futile—what more could be said after the other person had seen everything there was to see of Yang Wei?

"No... need." Recognizing the young man's face, Xu Xiang could not help but freeze for a moment, for he actually happened to know him. Although they had only crossed paths twice within the game, his exceptional memory ensured that even with the slight differences between reality and the virtual world, there was no way he could be mistaken.

Feeling helpless, I picked up the suit and walked into my bedroom. To be honest, despite having lived this long, I had never worn a suit before, and I had no idea whether it would suit me.

However, what Xu Xiang failed to notice was that Wang Xue, Lin Xin, and the others were growing at a speed far surpassing their past lives.

Once Leah's health stabilized, matters became straightforward. As for any desperate final struggle before death, it required no special attention. When the Vampire Duke's health was still above 10 percent, Xu Xiang had already delivered a Shadow Kill, followed by a barrage of crowd-control skills until the instant-kill effect took hold.

"What's so rare about that? Let alone the fact that we're buddies, even if we were total strangers, as long as it's a matter of mutual consent, who gives a damn what anyone else thinks?" Tang Feng continued to egg Qiangzi on.

"This old man is a commoner; as of a few days ago, I am no longer the imperial physician here. Since His Majesty requires my assistance, I have simply come to see what monumental issue has managed to stump all the esteemed lords of the Imperial Hospital." The old physician waved his hands repeatedly. As a mere commoner, he could not accept such high courtesy.

It would provide immortals with a superior path to condense their Dao Fruits, thereby ascending to become 400-tier Peerless Celestial Immortals.

"Aruda, this princess commands you, hold nothing back! Kill them!" Rong Shaomin suddenly roared.

One must ask, what kind of existence were the dragons? Among the nine celestial clans, they were once second only to the human race. How could those two alone manage to resolve things so effortlessly?

"Three hundred thousand spirit stones. If that is not enough, spiritual cultivation resources may be used as substitutes, converted at market value," Jiang Mu said calmly.

Ever since the young master arrived in Jiangzhou and entered the Zheng residence, not only had the person changed, but even his palate had followed suit.

Zheng Huanjie did not know that Huo Yao had rarely eaten apricots in the past—virtually never touching them. It was not that he disliked them, but rather that Shen Lanxiang did not care for them.

Yet the Essence Spirit of Magic regarded its opponents merely as soldiers. Even if the array of magical projection beam cannons were exposed, at most a single magical beam cannon would be lost.

By this time, the economy in District One had already begun to plunge into chaos, and the prices of Soul Crystals defied all logic.

For instance, the initial segment—simply moving rigidly step-by-step—lacked flair, and it only followed the musical beat. Now, with lyrics introduced, it could completely evolve into moving in sync with the lyrics, allowing for a massive overhaul and upgrade.

Unravelling the entanglements between the Li family and Jiang Yishan did not help Wang Peng see his direction any clearer; instead, it added a heavier layer of helplessness and a sense of burden.

Yet with a zombie's acute sense of hearing, they could easily pinpoint which vehicle had produced the sound, leading directly to the zombies smashing through the windows.

Ten million gold coins, requested without a single cent of interest, and disbursed without signing any agreement. Beyond that, Half-Gold was even preparing to deploy his formidable resource mobilization network to assist Flowing Fire.
