Shu Yiming’s car veered sharply to the side, making a wide arc. Suddenly, he leapt out, jumping straight through the narrow gap of the open door. After rolling twice on the ground, he landed in a patch of grass nearby. Shu Yiming had already prepared thoroughly before arriving, making sure both doors were open. Thankfully, he had made these preparations; otherwise, he would have met a terrible fate at this moment, for as soon as he landed in the grass, that vehicle...

Everyone was tense for Wan Kang, feeling that a man like him shouldn’t fall so easily to Fan San’s gun. Lin Xuan’s expression darkened; without hesitation, he threw a punch at Ye Feng’s body. With a loud thud, Ye Feng was sent flying, the blow so heavy that when he finally hit the ground, he could no longer move.

The entire scene fell silent; everyone was stunned, watching this legendary moment unfold. Was the line between life and death really so thin? Fan San had just been holding a gun, and a pull of the trigger could have claimed Wan Kang’s life. Yet now, Wan Kang was the one holding the gun to Fan San’s head. Moreover, Wan Kang’s move to seize the gun was truly spectacular.

Xu Yang and Bai Li Cheng quickly engaged in combat. Xu Yangxiu summoned a surge of deathly energy, which instantly transformed into a vast ocean of darkness. The space around them grew dim, as if a shadow had fallen.

When the shopkeeper left for lunch, he locked the door with a simple thief’s lock. The thief, using his own spare key, easily opened the main door after the owner left, walked in openly to steal, then locked up and departed.

Faced with such a rare opportunity, how could one let it slip away? Perhaps such a situation would only arise once in a lifetime; to not seize it tightly would be irresponsible to oneself and to others.

The two rooms booked at the ancient inn were adjacent. As he reached the door, Wan Kang wanted to suggest sitting in Luo Ying’s room for a chat, but upon seeing Luo Ying’s characteristic smile, he couldn’t bring himself to say it.

The special lifeform was struck through with a punch, its body pierced with a massive hole, exploding into a mass of sludge. Yet it didn’t die, only suffered a severe injury. The token, however, was knocked loose and landed nearby.

“How about I contact some people right now and block those cars, rescue General Nagatani?” Yumiko proposed.

“Alright, let’s return together then, revisit the old place.” Lin Xuan waved his hand, and they vanished from sight.

Maybe, before that beast notices him, it’s best to follow the wisdom of retreat—make a quick escape?

Chen Zhen and the others, led by Houston, arrived at an apartment building near the port. It was made of stone, conveniently close to the docks—easy to leave at any time. Whether Houston deliberately chose this place because he knew something, nobody could tell.

In the Prince of Virtue’s residence, all three nine-star kings appeared, their powerful regal aura shaking the heavens.

During the struggle between the Celestial Fruit and the demonic energy, control over the Star Spirit Infant was released, allowing Fang Xingchen to regain command over it.

“As a doctor, where is there so much free time?” This was not an excuse but the truth; Xing Baogang was a doctor, so he naturally understood more.

Such a commotion naturally drew the attention of many—countless eyes turned toward them.

“Hahaha, Xiao Moxuan really is ruthless.” Xing Baogang couldn’t help but laugh at Zhenzhe’s aggrieved tone.

“Anyone will do,” Zhao Zhichen replied calmly. Hearing Yang Qiqi agree, he began to wrap up his work.

The fur on his body bristled, his eyes bloodshot, blood from corpses still dripping from his mouth.

Moreover, Tang Jianguo was now on the rise. His father had once been a founding general; the leadership respected the elder Tang, granting him favors and preparing to help Tang Jianguo advance further.
