This is Shanxiu Village

The old lady slapped away Huang Liuniang's hand and personally pressed her withered fingers onto Qingbao's philtrum.

After returning, Huang Liuniang, accompanied by eldest uncle Huang and Xia Shouping, went to see old lady Xia to discuss moving. In the presence of eldest uncle Huang, although old lady Xia was displeased, she did not say anything overly harsh.

With a few more miserable screams, several more archers fell. By now, more than half of Forrest's squad had been injured.

The man in red? Yu Wuxian slowly stood up as multiple figures of Yehua flashed abruptly in his mind. Remembering the pursuers from just moments ago, he blinked in disbelief.

The overwhelming familiarity caused a splitting headache. Though concealed behind a mask that obscured his expression, under Mingxuan's near-pathological self-restraint, even his breathing remained undisturbed.

"You had better not lower your guard. Although you have entered the Bucket Wood Star Path, which is the easiest difficulty, even with my guidance, several perilous bottlenecks remain quite troublesome. You should prepare yourself mentally," the Fairy of Profound Yin warned.

Shen Junling and Liu Xihan also nodded. They had indeed been a bit too impatient; as the Ninth Master said, they needed to keep their composure.

The madman's eyes turned crimson as he swept his gaze across the surrounding soldiers. Wherever his eyes landed, the soldiers felt a sharp twitch in the depths of their hearts. Even Su Chenyang beside him was somewhat shocked; this aura alone radiated the majesty of royalty.

The empress's expression stiffened, and the emperor instantly flew into a rage. Since this banquet was held to select a spouse for the crown prince, all high-ranking state officials and local dignitaries were present.

Meanwhile, Feng Qingyang was not having an easy time either. The attacks from the Demonic Unicorn landed squarely on his body, and the fierce impact caused Feng Qingyang's mind to momentarily spin into turmoil. "This bastard is so absurdly resilient," Feng Qingyang cursed inwardly.

Walking down the main street, Bardack heard the endless cries of peddlers echoing in his ears, which came as quite a surprise to him. Come to think of it, in the original Naruto, where on earth were there any peddlers like these?

The surroundings were as dark as ink. The forest was terrifyingly silent. Ever since I woke up, the masked man had remained unconscious. He lay on the ground motionless, and if not for his faint breathing and heartbeat, I would have certainly assumed he was dead.

"You can discuss these matters directly with Edgar. As for the price, I believe you will take our future cooperation into consideration, because you are a clever man from Huaxia!" Ron August said with a smile, and then took his leave.

Consequently, he handed over a substantial amount of spiritual stones to Shiyi, instructing him to collect as many of these inner cores for him as possible.

Liu Moyan's gaze followed the man who had been standing quietly to the side without speaking, as if his trip here were merely a formality. The man's body was tightly tensed, yet his eyes looked straight into his without a trace of avoidance.

"Today, to welcome Inspector Li, I wish him successive promotions. Bottoms up!" Zhang Rui said, raising his cup.

"As long as you are willing to work at the Dadong River Ironworks, I will pay you your daily wage for every day you work. If you do well, I can even promote you to foreman. How about it?" Li Ye dangled the temptation.

This person turned out to be unexpectedly gentle, and furthermore, he did not mingle with the prisoners—truly rather strange.

Yet such a mysterious sect had now completely surrendered under Zhuge Hui's banner. Upon receiving this reply, Yin Hu was plunged into a state of disbelieving numbness for a moment.

"Yes..." Tan Ji also wiped away her tears. The present situation reminded her of the days when they were newly wed, when countless times they had walked hand in hand.

"Ah!" Fan Xiaoxue had never expected that Luo Hebin would directly pick her up. Although she harbored deep affection for him, she still felt a flush of shyness at that moment. However, when she saw the blood on her ankle, she was startled.

Kai looked on in utter shock as the blood-red dragon's final offensive vanished completely, leaving not a trace behind.

Chen Zihua placed the ball on the turf and passed it to Suso. Suso lofted a cross into the penalty area, and Chiellini made no mistakes this time; he intercepted the ball and launched a long clearance to Alves.

If its destiny proved profound enough, it would, like its four companions, not only have the chance to truly become a member of the demon race, but also enjoy the untamed freedom of roaring through the mountains and forests.

The nine mountain guardians occupied all directions, and right in the middle stood a man built like an iron tower, with a heavy iron chain wrapped around the waist of Lord Dragon.

It was precisely because Zhang Qian knew that Xie Lingfeng was not in the city at the moment that he dared to ask Qiu Mengqi for help; otherwise, beaten to death, he would never have dared, fearing Xie Lingfeng might kick and break one of his bones.

Liu Mingyu's eyes reddened slightly, whether due to the scorching heatwave or the sorrow deep within her heart.

With lightning crackling all over his body, Huo Guang's hair was charred black, and his skin burned red from explosions. With every bolt of heavenly lightning, Huo Guang's entire body trembled violently, enduring inhumane agony. Even so, Huo Guang still trusted Yan Chuan, refusing to use a weapon to fight the heavenly lightning, choosing instead to endure it with his mortal flesh alone.

The devouring of each other by the Heaven-Swallowing Tail Beasts differed from that of the Explosive Beasts. The latter possessed a fusion divine ability where multiple Explosive Beasts combined, increasing their strength exponentially; the Heaven-Swallowing Tail Beasts devouring each other was merely akin to consuming a powerful entity.

In the distance, we saw that the prominent guild led by Tang Youyou also appeared not far to our right. With nearly five thousand members, they were comparable to us in numbers, and the core families like Mainstream Romance and Mainstream Moonwalk were all stationed on the front lines.

Ling Yunyu's approach seemed intended to make Chen Liangyu useful to him, but in reality, he had no idea he was practically inviting a wolf into the house.

Initially, Lu Xiangxiang had not paid much mind, and had Pingge load the fruit wine, which was brewed to perfection, onto the carriage. Yet as Pingge was leaving, he handed Lu Xiangxiang a letter, saying it was entrusted to her by Shopkeeper Yuan. Upon seeing the letter in Pingge's hand, Lu Xiangxiang's heart skipped a beat.

Beneath the Star-Plucking Tower, the spectators remained lost in awe, yet to recover, when Nie Peixiao scaled the roof and leaped onto the tenth-floor open-air corridor, before stepping inside and descending the spiral staircase.
