Chapter 34: Blessings to You Both
Upon seeing Liu Feng, a profound sense of helplessness washed over Deling. She had never imagined that Liu Feng would turn out to be the very friend Song Chunmei had mentioned.
She wanted both the project and Shen Qingfeng, yet she could not bring herself to compromise her conscience. This agonizing dilemma trapped her in an endless cycle of despair. She felt utterly defeated, her mind so clouded by these chaotic thoughts that she failed to hear Song Zigui when he called her name the first time.

Abatai pulled back the tent flap, only to be met by a gust of bone-chilling wind heavy with moisture, which made him shiver uncontrollably. Since the second watch of the previous night, the rain had been falling in relentless, needle-like sheets, continuing unabated until now.
This spiritual treasure was truly one of a kind in the entire universe. Moreover, the few that had been discovered were typically held by masters in the Spacetime Stage; even those at the peak of the Void Stage were simply unqualified to possess such an artifact.
Bang! Boom! Rumbling explosions erupted in succession, tearing a massive crater into the ground with their sheer force.
With the presence of Wang Junhui, the oldest and most powerful ancestor of the Wang family, everyone felt a sense of restraint. No one dared to speak first, and all eyes turned toward him.
Within the world of the four True Gods, everything surged and expanded, forming a complete and isolated void, cut off entirely from the external universe.
"I long to return to the past, to wander through famous mountains and great rivers with my parents and brothers. Alas, this simple wish can no longer be fulfilled; I must wait until I enter the anti-universe to realize it." Wang Xian gave a bitter smile. Having lost all interest in sightseeing, he headed toward the great city of the demon race to gather information about the Demon Emperor.
Duo Yinyin suddenly realized her slip of the tongue. She wanted to take back what she had just said, but it was already too late for regrets.
Ji Wufeng stared at his shoulders; this defensive stance was a common habit for many, and it was clear that Ji Wufeng also favored this style of defense.
Instantly, a web of lightning crackled and crisscrossed, forming a barrier beside him that intercepted the dozen delayed spiritual fire weapons.
Ascending to immortality is the dream of every cultivator, especially those who have journeyed through the stages of Empowerment, Core Formation, Nascent Soul, and Spirit Severing. Their desire for immortality is incredibly intense; it is the goal they pursue their entire lives—to become immortals possessed of eternal longevity.
Sun Yuanhua established the embassy in Amsterdam. The construction of the embassy received strong support from the Dutch government, with cement imported from the East being used in its structure.
Cheng Mo returned from his avatar to his true self. He closed his eyes and began to recall every detail from the Temple of the Gods yesterday, hoping to see if he had missed anything. He pondered until he rose at seven, yet he still found nothing.
Lie Yan cried out in alarm and hurriedly shook its claws, still shaken by the experience. Had it not been for the suppressive power of its bloodline and its own considerable strength, it likely would not have been able to break free from that suction.
No one had expected such a sudden and shocking turn of events. Water droplets—not just one, but many—had arrived on Earth and immediately launched an assault.
Of course, it was also possible that the tree spirits realized that attacking Zhang Shuo might lead him to discover the weaknesses in their formation and break free. If they simply kept him trapped, their innate abilities could prove to be far more effective.
After the high-intensity training session concluded, the players looked as if they had been pulled out of water. Following the assistant coach’s dismissal, most of them headed to the locker room to shower.
Consequently, while Lie Yan’s cry was effective enough to overwhelm the majority of birds and beasts, forcing them into submission, one black bear refused to yield. It stepped out from its cave, baring its teeth and snarling at Lie Yan with a roar that shook the heavens.
