Volume 1, Chapter 61: Keep Putting on an Act, Go Right Ahead!

Having been mocked to such an extent, Teacher Chen could no longer maintain his composure or smooth things over. With a face as dark as iron, he stormed off.

Regarding the base's recent movements and arrangements, he had managed to provide almost everything he could get his hands on to Gu Zichen, ensuring at least an eight-year margin of safety for Gu Zichen and the other fugitives.

Much like countless other fans, Xu Moyan had once daydreamed about what the *Bells of the Rainy Night* audio drama would sound like if it included mature or intimate voice acting. Just a brief mental sketch back then had been enough to make her lose control.

Back then, Yang Ye had been so sincere in trying to poach him, yet he had declined. Out of respect for him, Yang Ye had even helped GT out by serving as their tactical coach for a while... Now, striking out on one's own to poach the core heavyweights from under that person's command was the kind of treacherous act that would incur divine wrath; Wang Yao simply could not bring himself to do it.

The sword Qi originated from Qiu Feng’s side. In the eyes of the brave warriors, his cultivation was at the late stage of the Spirit Platform realm; no one could have anticipated that he was actually a supreme powerhouse of the Void Refinement realm, and naturally, they could see right through Guan Wen's intentions. Since you show no benevolence, do not blame me for striking ruthlessly, lest complications arise with the magical treasure.

Liu Yun and Xiao Jian exchanged glances. This particular angle raised by Zhao Bazhou was something neither Liu Yun nor Xiao Jian had considered.

"Qi Lingfeng, you had better not do anything that makes me despise you even more, for fear that I might truly fail to restrain myself and kill you," Qiao Xiyuan said word by word, her tone fierce and unyielding.

I understood Durian's intentions well; she was afraid that I would lose both my innocence and my money, and if things ultimately didn't work out with Gao Zijian, I would have sacrificed my youth for nothing, which would be entirely not worth it.

The reality Ye Wu presented to her was far too jarring and sudden, making it impossible for her to process and settle her emotions all at once.

Louis XIV hurriedly followed the trail of water stains on the ground, walking all the way until he reached Yang Yesheng's car, where the moisture finally vanished completely. This left Louis XIV utterly baffled, wondering what on earth had just happened.

However, Lingyue grabbed the incoming thorny vines with both hands, halting the airborne dark figure's momentum mid-air.

"Haha, Fiya, it is my fault. I am always away on missions and keep forgetting to search for the plume-colored flower along the way. This time, I certainly will! I definitely won't forget!" Jue Chenyusi smiled and said.

To be honest, while thinking this way might be slightly disrespectful to He Yunye, he really was quite skilled at putting on an imposing front.

Though wanting to keep such matters hidden from everyone lasted only a few minutes, there was no need to consult others at this juncture; otherwise, how could she justify it to herself?

"It's not what you're imagining." Within the span of a few seconds, Xu Yun had already straightened her clothes and recovered her usual composure, though the overwhelming awkwardness and panic lingering on her face were entirely uncharacteristic of her everyday demeanor.

"Dual cultivation of martial arts and vital essence?" Fang Tianhao heard this term for the first time. For all these years, Uncle Yun had never once mentioned this matter to him.

Meanwhile, the martial artists watching from the sidelines silently prayed in their hearts that Chiluomo would be able to withstand the terrifying Ghost Lord. They saw the Ghost Lord wave his hand, a surge of black Qi erupting and merging into the giant skull suspended above. The skull emitted a terrifying aura, opening its cavernous maw as a sinister wind swept forward, swallowing Chiluomo whole in a single gulp.

Hearing the announcement that their stop was approaching, Ya'er Shi took a few steps back to stand by the train doors, getting ready to disembark, while his mind remained haunted by the bearing and attire of the imperial military personnel he had just encountered.

Hearing him ask for the lock to be opened, Lingyue grew even more puzzled. After hesitating for a good while, she slowly fished out the key.

By this time, Ye Chong was already sharing the same quilt with Li Guor'er. Li Guor'er clung to Ye Chong like an octopus, while he gently stroked her slender back and played with her cascading locks of hair.

Having thought all this through, Lin Ai parted ways with Sophia and the others. Sophia and Gu Hua still had to rack their brains over how to find a method to infiltrate the mechanical lifeform network. Although they claimed to be relying on Lin Ai, they still needed to make other preparations—what if an alien spaceship was discovered in outer space tomorrow?

As she spoke, Princess Yuzhen produced a pair of scissors from an unknown place, gripping them in a reverse-handed grip with the sharp point pressed directly against her snow-white neck.

Ultimately, facts proved that the worries of the supreme powerhouses from the two major factions were entirely unfounded; Xu Wuque was by no means made of paper, easily punctured with a gentle poke.

When numerous fans gathered tearfully outside Nintendo's headquarters, Gunpei Yokoi also breathed a silent sigh of relief.

Moreover, they had no such forces to spare. Once the Western Xia people retreated, the officials of Zhejiang North Circuit had long since been seized by the prime ministers and high-ranking lords. How could it ever fall to their turn to report anything? They were merely three scapegoats taking the blame.

However, as soon as these words were spoken, both QB and Emil stared at Lin Ai with utter speechlessness—were you not the one forcefully seizing other people's belongings?

Ye Chong's single sentence was like a tiny spark landing in a barrel of lamp oil; in an instant, the entire stone chamber erupted into a commotion as people whispered among themselves in heated discussion.

First, they attacked Western Xia, only to end up being ground into the dirt by them. Just as Western Xia finally retreated, the Khitans arrived. Since they couldn't even defeat Western Xia, as for the Khitans... well, let's just pretend we didn't see them and act like we know nothing.

Backed by the Pearl River, it covered a vast expanse of land, roughly corresponding to the location of Huacheng Square twenty years later.

"Whether I am making baseless accusations or not, once I report this matter to the command headquarters for a thorough investigation, there will naturally be a fair and public judgment!" Section Chief Li insisted firmly, refusing to yield an inch.

It could be said that this abruptly appearing human powerhouse had turned the tide of battle in the blink of an eye. The liberated human powerhouses grew like a snowball rolling downhill; the Zerg were utterly incapable of resisting this overwhelming force, and in sectors where they had previously held the offensive advantage, the Zerg perished by the thousands.

"No, I absolutely refuse to be integrated into this grand formation!" Old Fourth Gu Huasha fought desperately. He knew that once he was suppressed and driven into the core eye of the formation, he would instantly suffer a fate worse than death—his body and soul completely obliterated. He knew all too well just how terrifying this formation of his own creation was, having spent a thousand years refining it to absolute perfection.

Su Zhuo made a rough calculation of those crystal cores and arrived at a conclusion: those crystal cores were enough to elevate the entire current population of nine billion people on Earth from ordinary humans all the way to the peak of intermediate-modified humans. Furthermore, there would still be enough left over to construct a massive fleet powered by crystal cores.

With this downward pressure, the space directly before him warped into a bizarre wave-like curve, and at that very moment, the man gently tapped his right foot.

Right at this moment, a bizarre vortex suddenly materialized in the firmament, and an instant later, a formidable aura abruptly surged forth from within it.

This time, Yang Ye had his own estate in Tianji City. However, there were no guards. The Yang family certainly wouldn't dispatch anyone specifically to protect him; neither he nor any of the other young masters enjoyed such treatment. Those young masters relied on their own subordinates, mostly factions they had cultivated themselves or powerhouses they had recruited through their own means.
