Bamboo Horse's Wish Challenge (6)

Fortunately, for now, it is merely an intention. Breaking off the original engagement and arranging a political marriage between major clans is not something that can be decided with a single word. To speak of it on a larger scale, it also affects the delicate balance of power and other subtle relationships among various factions.

As for reclaiming the position of the Divine Venerable of the Moon Clan, Xiang Lingyue had not the slightest bit of worry. The reason she had been apprehensive before was mainly due to her younger brother Xiang Ning’s lack of ambition and competence. In such a scenario, even with her assistance and the ability to command the spiritual cultivators within the clan—including the forces she had cultivated in secret—he would ultimately still be defeated by the elders.

Tens of thousands of pieces of equipment and mountains of grain were all accumulated in secret by the He family. As allies, the Xiao family was completely unaware of even the slightest hint of it.

When masters duel, having no form surpasses having form. Brother Duan handled momentous matters with effortless ease, dissolving conflicts and disputes with just a few casual strokes.

Upon seeing the lingering aura of spring on Cheng Xixiang, Lingxi was filled with boundless joy. She thought to herself that it was fortunate she had not returned last night; otherwise, she truly would have interrupted the good business of the two of them.

It was only later that I realized my luck was truly exceptional—or perhaps I should say Huzi's luck was also quite remarkable. The anti-tank grenade he threw happened to strike the junction between the tank turret and the chassis, which was the most vulnerable spot on the tank's front armor.

The parents-in-law left while cursing and swearing; in truth, they were genuinely terrified that Lingxi might actually go crazy and ignite the lighter.

Fan Tong looked somewhat awkward, Fan Dai wore an expression of indifference, the bearded man seemed to have a sudden epiphany of sorts, while the expression of the prisoner who was still coughing remained completely hidden from view.

This was the secret signal prearranged between myself and the soldiers. On a night with such abyssal visibility, the best way to distinguish friend from foe was to use white towels as markers. In past battles, the Volunteer Army had frequently employed this tactic, and it had never failed once.

The Federal University's disciplinary rules were terrifying, yet those two individuals had committed acts of violence right here. Clearly, either they were outsiders to the school or they had no fear of the regulations. However, if the matter escalated, they would still find themselves in trouble.

If the other party became displeased in the slightest, he would have to report to King Yama himself. He had not yet finished enjoying the worldly wealth and glory; how could he possibly die so easily?

There were certain things he disliked saying aloud himself, so that should anything go wrong, he could completely distance himself from the blame.

Pu Tong inhaled a sharp, cold breath. Following this instinctive action of his, the previously dazed and sluggish octopus monster also began to stir. Its massive tentacles started to thrash about, as if attempting to seize Qiu Yuexia.

Ramos nodded in convinced agreement. In truth, leaving aside Xie Dongya's character, Ramos still held great admiration for Xie Dongya's strength and wisdom.

Monkey channeled his inner energy through his palms into Zhu Qing, and Zhu Qing's true qi immediately responded. The Formless True Qi flowed and circulated within both of their bodies. After a short while, Zhu Qing's state of mind finally calmed down.

Li Ziting walked out of the room, having already changed into a normal set of clothing. His slender legs were encased in long trousers, and his shoes made not the slightest sound as they stepped upon the carpet.

That resounding voice, like divine Sanskrit music descending from the nine heavens, carried no emotion whatsoever, yet it exuded a tremendous and awe-inspiring majesty, bursting forth directly within the hearts of listeners.

Because of him, not only was his romantic affair ruined, but he had also brought himself to this state. His testicles were shattered, and he would probably never even be able to function as a man again.

Selling this car would net him a considerable commission. Just moments ago, upon hearing Shen Bingjie's words, he had assumed Xie Dongya could not afford it, and he wondered whether the man would still go through with the purchase.

"Do you all get the feeling that the longer we stay with this Master Wang, the more uneasy we become—as if, as if the very heavens and earth are about to change because of him?" Taking a deep breath, the Great Elder added.

She returned to the guest room in a slightly dazed state, walked over to the window, opened it, gazed into the pitch-black exterior, and then closed her eyes to scan the surroundings with her spiritual sense first.

However, Nangong Mo's expression at the moment was somewhat dazed, wearing a faraway, absent-minded look as if he had not heard Yun Ran's words at all.

Qin Lanxin let out a cold snort and said, "Shangguan Yun, strictly speaking, your life was saved by me, and for that, I even suffered a harsh reprimand from the Valley Master. Yet you return kindness with enmity; you—you truly are worse than pigs and dogs." As she spoke, her sword techniques grew tighter and fiercer, thrusting blow after blow directly toward Shangguan Yun's vital points.

Halfway through the banquet, Zhang Mo suddenly remembered Wang Yi, and upon inquiry, she learned that Wang Yi had also followed them to Yecheng. However, without the command of the Great King or the Consort, Jia Xu had not dared to bring her into the Prince of Tang's Mansion.

She had no desire to consume stir-fried dishes seasoned with nothing more than a pinch of salt ever again; they were utterly unpalatable and completely devoid of flavor.

His sword-like eyebrows lifted slightly, bearing a playful smile on his face. Far from leaving, he instead intended to draw even closer.

Li Zhichen acknowledged the instruction and let the old man lead the way, thinking to himself: Country folk are honest and sincere, possessing a purity of heart far surpassing that of cultivators.

"Very well, Xiao Qingfang had the shortest time of death, so I shall start with her first," Yuan Zheng said, fixing his gaze upon Xiao Qingfang initially.

"Inspector Chu, perhaps you are overthinking things, or perhaps the intelligence you spoke of is false," said the team member who was driving.

Liu Xu nodded upon hearing this. As expected of an elite graduate from a world-class institution, her train of thought was exceptionally clear, her objectives were well-defined, and she pinpointed the existing problems with absolute precision. It was simply that she did not realize certain technologies could not be sold externally until she had fully mastered them herself, so this could not be blamed on her.

Even with Miao Fenghuang backing Wei Zijie, he would never agree to it. The Fierce Tiger Bar was the foundation of his Tiger Head Gang; relying on the profits generated by the bar, he was able to maintain the gang's status. Losing the Fierce Tiger Bar could be considered a fatal blow to the Tiger Head Gang.

He quickly nodded in consent, perhaps because he was truly too exhausted to persist, and someone had conveniently provided him with a graceful way out so he could stop, rest, and catch his breath.

The Nine Flames Heavenly Fire Pagoda was of far too high a rank; even restricted by Han Feng to the point where he could not unleash even a billionth of its power, it was still beyond the ability of the old man to detect.

"Senior Sister, what are you talking nonsense for? There's nothing like that..." Upon hearing this, Lin Yaman could not help feeling somewhat shy, casting a spoiled, reproachful glare at her senior sister as if blaming her for talking too much. Every time she harbored even the slightest feeling of the sort, her senior sister would always bring it out into the open.

The longer he remained on the Battle Soul Continent, the more Han Feng discovered that the continent's suppression upon him grew stronger, and his recovery rate grew slower.

The eccentric person told her that its true property
