The Box Cannon immediately caught Lin Xing’s attention.
It was not that Lin Xing had any particular interest in firearms; rather, he needed a gun like this now.
His hunting gun was powerful, but its range was too short. It was essentially a shotgun.
The Box Cannon, however, was a handgun. Though somewhat weaker in power, it had a much longer effective range.
The key problem was that the hunting gun was simply too...
Under the hazy moonlight of a late-autumn night, the bleak wind battered the withered branches, making them rustle incessantly. Their shadows, cast beneath the moon, seemed to press down upon the earth and grow ever larger, as though they meant to devour the world, creating a terrifying illusion.
Clearly, only people of extraordinary standing were entitled to sit upon the Dao Platform. Wasn’t Mo Jiangnan merely seated at the very end? Yet opposite him, another cushion remained empty. Had its occupant not arrived, or had Dream Mechanist invited only seven people? No one could say.
Unable to do anything about Xia Zixuan, Ji Yang was consumed by fury, flames of rage soaring skyward. As Xia Zixuan charged through the sea of fire, Ji Yang knew he could no longer kill him. With a wave of his fire banner, several fiery serpents rose toward the heavens and struck out to intercept Xia Zixuan, while Ji Yang himself withdrew.
The Chess Demon Sovereign suddenly shouted. With a sweep of his hand, a streak of sword energy burst forth, instantly piercing Elder Fang through the chest and abdomen. Elder Fang spat out a mouthful of blood and tumbled from the chess pillar to the ground.
Jiang Chen could no longer suppress the Heavenly Dao’s soul. Fortunately, everything that needed to be explained had already been explained. Liu Tianli did not hesitate for even a moment. He scooped up Xu Mengqi and vanished from the spot.
That was far too casual. Besides, naming the shop after himself felt somewhat inappropriate. After all, Ling Tian was the investor, so the shop ought to bear his name. Calling it Baba Pu really was not suitable.
“Senior Brother, this is the spirit flower they tried to seize when they came up,” the young man said to the person ahead of him, his voice filled with hatred.
There was still something to say? At that moment, I could barely contain my emotions. I was so damn excited. The truth had finally come to light. As it turned out, both the old village chief and this middle-aged man had been involved; they had evidently been bribed by the shaman. The crucial point was that each of them had been looking for a different person.
That dog of an emperor had not only harmed her entire family but had also tried to kill the man she loved. This hatred had accumulated layer upon layer.

After saying this, he cast Qin Cang a slightly displeased glance. His final sentence sounded as though it had been deliberately emphasized for Qin Cang’s benefit, with particular stress placed on the words “the crucial point.”
Qi Junce gave Ma Dong a meaningful look, and Ma Dong immediately understood. He went to the outer courtyard and brought in the wizard from earlier.
However, Grey Hui’s consciousness gradually grew hazy, and his movements began to turn unnatural. Jiang Yunze guessed that the side effects of becoming a Source Beast had not yet completely faded, and Grey Hui’s consciousness was beginning to perish.
The two lay down again. At that moment, in a bedroom within the imperial estate, the two people who had just finished making love held each other as the sweat on their bodies mingled. A moment later, the sound of water arose, followed by a series of footsteps so faint they were almost imperceptible.
The Sun family hurried over and tried to restrain Sun Daqiang. To my surprise, however, Sun Daqiang’s strength was terrifyingly great. The two brothers holding him were both large, powerfully built men, yet he flung them away with ease.
Seeing Qian Renfeng deep in thought, he did not continue questioning him. He merely felt that something seemed amiss.
“What is it?” Meng Xianghan gently patted her hand, her expression radiating tenderness.
Cha Xiaoyan had a classmate visiting Licheng, so she accompanied her to Lake Li, arriving at the Jinxia Restaurant in Li Lake Bay.
They had no doubts about this part of the plan. Huang She had already been released, and he would certainly tell Lü Lin everything that had happened here. It was all within their calculations.
Ever since Gu Linqing had been demoted from empress to consort—a change without precedent—she had either been too ashamed to show herself or had lost all hope. She hid in that remote palace and never appeared again.
There was no support or external aid—only pure strength. That power gathered with astonishing speed, forming in the blink of an eye.
“Yes.” Madam Xiao knew that although the Second Master might quarrel with her, he would never risk bringing disgrace upon the Second Branch.
As his voice faded, Tiansheng’s palm suddenly erupted with a brand-new force of Heaven’s Origin in black, white, and blue. He loosely struck the air beneath his feet, then stepped away.
It was said that this imperial uncle of his disliked life in the palace. Obsessed with medicine, he yearned for a life among idle clouds and wild cranes, and thus had never returned to the palace.

“You’re laughing foolishly again. Are grapes really that delicious?” Lü Hong especially loved seeing Lü Xiang’er smile. Whenever she smiled, his heart filled with joy as well.
Though Luciella was not a competent grand lord, she was at least one who kept her word. If she said she would exterminate an entire family, she certainly would. If she proclaimed a general amnesty, she would truly grant one.
A man in his thirties wore a golden mask that covered half his face. Yet the hawk-like eyes revealed a sharp and gloomy presence.
Gude Jinsen rushed in front of Philip Ze in a single stride and stared coldly at Chen Langya, his guard fully raised.
Without waiting for Tiansheng’s consent, he transmitted the incantation directly into Tiansheng’s ears. Although Tiansheng was puzzled that the Demon Emperor would treat him so well as to teach him the spell, he would never let such an opportunity pass. He secretly memorized the incantation.
After briefly explaining His Majesty the Emperor’s intentions, Huo Qingsong watched reluctantly as Lü Xiang’er walked toward the rear residence. Only after he could no longer see her figure did he take Huo Bao to find Song Beiqiao. Meanwhile, Lü Xiang’er wondered how Chaoxia could have married before her as she made her way to Second Lady Lü’s courtyard.
Who would have thought that these undead swordsmen could drop purple-quality set equipment? Every attribute was excellent, and the set bonuses were even more impressive. They increased attack by 10 and speed by 10 as well—two attributes that would absolutely leave swordsman players addicted.
But what did His Majesty mean by doing this now? Did he truly trust the loyalty of the two families, or did he have another plan? Fu Ke was bewildered. She had always believed that she understood His Majesty, but at that moment she suddenly realized that she could not fathom him at all.
The county magistrate of the Great Dian Kingdom stepped forward with a puzzled expression, preparing to inspect the token of the Golden Phoenix Kingdom’s emperor that the other county magistrate had produced and determine whether it was genuine.
Before long, Han Yancheng thought of a place: his former home. Apart from that, there was Empty-Bearing City. Yet the city was crowded, and its guards kept a strict watch, making it difficult for outsiders to enter. Given Ning Xi’s intelligence, she would not recklessly walk to her death. Therefore, she could only be at his former home in the village beneath Sacrifice Harmony Mountain.
When night fell over Chang’an, white light radiated from the White Deer and spread into every household. The crying of children in their nightmares ceased, and Chang’an, previously restless beneath the summer night, finally became truly peaceful.
After spending so much time together, Feng Qingyan gradually developed feelings for him. Then, quite naturally, the two of them slept together.
