Volume 1, Chapter 41: The Submission of Savigny
Slowly, the main force opposite approached. Leading them were two generals: one, a middle-aged man with a dignified appearance and the air of a great commander; the other, though slight of build, possessed an extraordinary presence.
"..." Jiang Ming looked at the old man, speechless. The image of the benevolent elder he had held in his heart collapsed instantly.
At this moment, after Chen Mo and Helian Huowu received the jade box from Shentu Xin, they struck a cool pose for Yuan Haocang.
"Who are you to dare kill members of our Billy family?" standing atop a giant bat, the pale foreign man glared at Yingjun with a sinister look. The reason he had not attacked immediately was the sight of the charred vampire corpses covering the ground, along with Patriarch George, Brock, and Bailey Yidan.
Liang Fan smiled bewitchingly. "I think meeting is fate; why don't we follow the will of heaven?" Pushing down the young man who, like her, was lonely and adrift, Liang Fan reached out to gently loosen her sash.
What was both shocking and infuriating was that when the three of them reached the entrance of the Emperor's bedchamber, lewd sounds could be heard from within.
The giant python, having lashed out with its tail at the large tree, writhed on the ground in pain, which only fueled its fury. With a series of hisses, it lunged directly at the smug Yingjun.
It was true; how could someone like Ying Zheng trust anyone? The throne was more precious than any treasure in the world—who wouldn't want to ascend to that seat?
"Ugh..." Su Qingge was pulled away by him, and the burning heat in her body surged once more. Frowning, she reached out to loosen the collar of her dress.
When Xiao Yuyin returned to the living room, Eunuch An had been waiting impatiently. Seeing her emerge, a look of surprise flashed in his eyes.
The giant mouthparts, as if restrained by invisible chains, stopped in mid-air. Her sword blade sliced right through them, shattering the massive teeth into powder.
The Demon Mountain lacked the ability to learn and could not detect the dangers of technological weaponry. That thing was cold and unfeeling, merely utilizing certain laws of the world.
Seeing the flicker of killing intent in the eyes of the two patriarchs and hearing what Xiu Jue said, the Madam and Duo Mingyan could naturally deduce that the four patriarchs coming to this residence with over twenty deities in such a grand manner was not for the sake of Luo Jue, a direct descendant.
The progress of an era cannot be achieved overnight, but he could plant the seeds of this philosophy. The Great Han Dynasty was already far ahead of the world; there was no need to seek instant success. Haste makes waste. Through gradual accumulation, a qualitative change would naturally occur when the time was right—such things could not be rushed.
Brunhilde could no longer concern herself with such matters. She was thoroughly enraged by the disdain Li Yunmu and the system showed for the divine office; at that moment, she wished to kill everyone standing in her way.
Mai Zi saw that the matter was settled; fretting over why the demolition was happening was useless. The priority now was compensation.
Indeed, those with children understood these things. Ye Zifan’s eyes lit up, and he immediately thought of a gift to win over Mai Bao.
A-Fei collapsed onto the sand and said nothing more, whether from sorrow or having fallen asleep.
Qi Niang looked suspiciously at Chen Niang, then at the collection, but decided not to bother with it. After all, there was important business today. She stood up, went to Chen Niang’s side, and looked at him with a sly glint in her eye.
If Danzo was almost enough to drag him down, what about Nagato later on? And Orochimaru, Yakushi Kabuto, or even Madara, Kaguya, and Black Zetsu, who had been orchestrating everything all along?
Hearing this, Chu Xiuxiu couldn't help but giggle. Was Zhou Shaojie saying that her contribution was significant? The feeling of fighting side-by-side with Zhou Shaojie was wonderful.
But just at that moment, a sudden thick fog descended, making it impossible to recognize anyone even at a close distance. Dou Jiande said happily, "This is truly heaven helping me!" He then led his army to charge into the Xue camp.
Li Nan and the others, hiding in King's Landing, were watching the map of the Seven Kingdoms on the table, discussing the current chaotic situation.
Returning the next evening, Zhou Shaojie found that Xiuxiu had already gone to bed early, which unsettled him. On the third morning, he waited until Xiuxiu woke up before leaving.
Minghui used his final ounce of strength to stab a kunai into the evil mind's heart. Possessing the same Sharingan abilities, the evil mind captured the movement, striking with lightning speed to seize the kunai and plunging it back into Minghui's body.
The soldiers of the Heavenly Thunder Army stood tall, their eyes filled with pride. They had the right to be proud, for they had marched fearlessly against the savage cavalry, defying fate with their own strength and leading hundreds of thousands of Daxing troops out of peril.
Jiang Huo scanned the comments with puzzled eyes. Only after reading the audience's explanations did she understand.
To show her friend the injuries on her body, Irene specifically didn't change back into her original clothes, coming to the door draped only in a bathrobe. Through the gaps, the bruises on her neck, thighs, and arms were visible to Jennie, and the bump on her forehead and the cut on the corner of her mouth were particularly striking.
Leaning against Zhong Yue's chest, Tong En let herself sob uncontrollably. The torrential tears washed away the pain lingering deep in her heart, washing away the loneliness and solitude that had accompanied her for years. She no longer held back, letting the tears flow unrestrained. This was something she had never dared to hope for—to be able to release all her pain in front of a loved one.
"She nearly fainted at the dinner table when she went to inspect our company last time," he added in a low voice.
Thinking about the energetic and destructive children at home, Melissa felt that this highlighted the importance of Zhang Dawi. Clearly, some physical labor was better suited for him.
