“Enough. Don’t say another word!” Qianxi glared at him; her cheeks flushed, her gaze dazzling, lacking any hint of menace and instead exuding a captivating allure.
Yue Chuyi, dabbing her nose with a handkerchief, paused, sensing from Jiang Sheng’s tone that the secret he was about to reveal must have something to do with Wen Shang.
Shen Suixin replied, “Does the box office really need hype now? If you’re going to complain, do it elsewhere. Don’t dirty my place.”

Mo Dongbai met Xu Feng today; Xu Feng had been transferred from Mu Zheng’s side a month ago, assigned an idle post in the security camp. Tonight, taking advantage of the camp’s full deployment, Xu Feng slipped away to meet Rong Tang. Certainly, Rong Tang would be easier to face, but Mo Dongbai would be much harder for Xu Feng.
At this moment, Damon felt a wave of unease; his heart thumped wildly as if it might leap from his mouth.
The Ancient General of Taishi withdrew the ice needle and dropped to his knees, eyes still shut, his face pale, body trembling faintly.
Within the Martian and Jovian circles, the tangled web of factions meant that every conflict set off ripples across the whole. Behind every war lay momentous consequences.
He had painstakingly devised the cultivation method best suited to him, its core summed up in a single word: eat! Yes, it was that simple—eat. As long as there was something to consume, he would progress without limit.
Had Maruba Alkay not forced these youths to undergo surgery, perhaps Namse Tabin would not have so despised Maruba Alkay. After all, this world is a place where the strong prey upon the weak; there will always be those who are selfish and fearful of death.

Though Namlai Tabin sensed no murderous intent from the other, his passive skill warned him of a faint aura of danger.

Yet living like that held no meaning; in his previous life, he had been persecuted by these people, and this vengeance must be repaid.
The Ning family saw that the Duke’s residence was unchanged, except that the child she cherished had grown up, leaving her overwhelmed by emotion.

Cao Yuan nearly spat out his soup; he turned his head aside, pounding his chest and coughing violently.
Going out to sweep snow now—is that a joke? The cold outside is biting; the snow has hardened into blocks. If it were easy to clear, the authorities would have sent people long ago and wouldn’t have delayed so much.
No matter how you looked at it, Old Joe was clearly being eyed as a stepping stone for someone else’s ascent.
Lin Qiye bowed his head, donned the mask of Sun Wukong, a chilling, terrifying visage. He stepped upon endless clouds, soaring skyward, vanishing in an instant at the horizon’s edge.
