Kissing Her in the Hospital Corridor

Pei Siya’s lips curled into a faint smile at the young girl’s reaction. He did not mind showing this private side of himself to her in front of others. Pei Siya was hardly ever a chauvinist; he rejected the notion of asserting dominance within the household just for appearances. To him, such pretense was hollow. True marriage could only endure when the wife genuinely felt happiness, not when one blindly clung to preserving one’s pride.

“Go ahead, you all,” he said, “I’ll stay here.”

Suddenly, a fierce gust of energy exploded outward. Qian Yang’s figure flashed, and in the next instant, a pair of gray wings unfurled behind him, enveloping him completely. Moments later, the aftershock slowly dissipated, and a line of characters appeared in the sky.

Crack! The aura expanded, an invisible force ensnaring Lei Qiansong, lifting him little by little. No matter how he struggled, he was immobilized, his face turning first an iron blue, then a deep purplish red.

“Xiangxiang, if you don’t make way for the king, I’ll win,” Xiu’er said with a smile, placing the last flag in Cai Yan’s territory.

Boom! The sea of fire surged across the troops on the ice, resembling a returning tide crashing upon the shore. The fiery serpents leapt more than ten meters high. From a distance, one could swear the entire Cang River had transformed into a winding fire serpent—brilliant and mesmerizing.

Though the great powers feared Xu Yin’s desperate counterattack in his final moments, they were even more anxious about the fate of their own sects should Xu Yin escape.

Chen Long had just sent Ji Yunu home and was getting ready to drive back to the hotel when he suddenly thought of Liu Yue’er. He quickly pulled out a note, his face lighting up with excitement.

Even though the magical network barrier could be broken with the help of Samael and Darkan, breaching the formidable city walls of Silver Moon City, guarded by countless elves, remained a daunting challenge.

Even the fiery Zhang Fei and the proud Guan Yu were under strict orders from Liu Bei to remain motionless.

The blazing sun hung high in the sky, pouring scorching heat and light upon the earth. The day of the mid-August lunar festival was oppressively hot, the air itself wavering under the heat. Yet, within the capital of Dong Cang, an unnatural chill of winter’s harshness permeated the atmosphere.

Rumble! Rumble! Thunder cracked down, a punishment whose duration was unknown. At last, Lei Jue could no longer endure; the entire barrier shattered with a thunderous roar. Bang! Bang! Lightning arcs entwined, violently flinging him backward.

“Ahhh!” The wild boar howled in pain as an arrow pierced its eye, the agony forcing a piercing cry from its throat.

Few knew of this effect! Zhang Yunlong had been searching in secret for a long time but had yet to discover any trace of the Jade Coral.

The sound was faint but clearly penetrated everyone’s ears, as if it possessed a magical power that burrowed into their very souls. Yet they paid no heed to its peculiarity, for their eyes beheld statues rising out of nowhere—stone figures born of nothingness, existing between yin and yang.

A streak of azure clouds burst forth from the sword’s scabbard, within which a blue sword darted toward Yan Luoniang. The strike was majestic, the azure sword clearly no ordinary weapon.

The man who spoke was accompanied by another whose eyes were filled with shock. To reach the level of absorbing the martial force of heaven and earth required surpassing the Martial Soul realm. As for absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, that was utterly impossible for them.

“The Lin family,” Shakun said coldly, “it seems that while we’ve been recuperating these past few years, these fellows have gotten a bit restless. Investigate thoroughly; if it’s them, wipe them out. Let them know whose domain this is.”

“We’re honored to be called friends of the Political Discipline Bureau. If there’s anything you need, just come to me,” the two bureau chiefs said with smiles, causing Hua Yongfeng’s eyes to brighten with silent excitement.

The emperor’s words, feigning ignorance while knowing full well, ignited an assault in the court. Suddenly, a multitude knelt down in the great hall with a rustling sound.
