Volume One, Chapter 60: A Gathering of Adults

Before the Lu family members could finish speaking, the five-headed snake, which had been resting calmly on the lake surface, suddenly shook its five heads violently. Its five jaws opened wide, letting out a deafening roar.

Ma Tian nodded. He had been scared half to death just moments before. He did not know how powerful Meng Nan truly was, but back at the airport, Li Xiaolong had assured him that with Meng Nan taking charge, Madam Catherine would undoubtedly remain safe and sound.

"Young Master Nick, I am truly sorry. How about I go ask and see if President Xiao would agree?" The manager had no wish to cause a catastrophic disaster, and spoke to Nick Sun with a flattering smile.

Qiao Yuan walked toward the grand hall, wanting to make out the characters inscribed on the plaque above the door. Yet, no matter how hard he tried, he could not see them clearly, as if a layer of mist shrouded the surface, allowing only a vague glimpse of three characters.

Xiaofan and Yileng were still watching the currently unconscious Meng Yuxuan, consumed by worry for him. They had called out to Meng Yuxuan for a long time, but there was still no reaction at all, which inevitably filled the two of them with anxiety.

"Yes, Young Master," the elderly butler replied respectfully, watching Xiao Shaoqing and his companions head upstairs.

Puchii could only act as a human punching bag to buy time for Ye Daohong. This nearly desperate tactic created an opportunity for Ye Daohong to save lives.

She dared not! Even though her longing had grown into an overwhelming flood, she was terrified of hearing Chu Tianqi's voice, even if he were to ask just a single question: why?

Among peers of the same realm, almost no other fierce beast could rival the speed of the Silver-Eyed Blood Eagle. In the span of a single breath, the three blood eagles were already less than two zhang away from Qiao Yuan.

Having said this, Shao Feiquan turned and left. Yang Hongtao knew that Shao Feiquan had gotten himself into deep trouble and wanted no part in it. Telling him to leave was entirely out of a desire to protect him.

"Come back early, and mind your safety!" Hu Qiyan did not forget to add a parting reminder, completely embodying the image of a benevolent father.

Intense hellish black flames ignited upon the Moyu Sword, and the massive sword radiance, carrying the might of those infernal flames, surged directly toward the icy palm on the first level.

After giving his instructions, Qing Ziye closed his eyes to meditate and regulate his breathing. Pity for the original male protagonist—the fine bruises beneath his eyes showed how haggard he had become, a clear sign of how severely he had been tormented.

Returning to the banquet hall, Chen Fu discovered that Zhao Jin and Chen Rou were gone. After inquiring around, he learned that the two of them, fearing Ling Feng's retaliation, had slipped away while the crowd was still dense.

Xie Chang'an and his wife, Su Ruan, emigrated to Australia after the Xie family crisis. They felt that even though they had intellectually accepted the reality of their child's death, living in a space filled with the lingering echoes of their child's joyful laughter was a daily torture, which was why they chose to go to Australia.

Xiao Cheng and Fukang nodded. This Fang Chong was indeed exceptional; his aura was restrained within, yet it exuded a suffocating chill.

"Times change, and circumstances differ!" Old Li chuckled heartily. "Right now, these two pieces of raw jadeite are worth a fortune. I only need to announce to the outside world that these two rough stones caught the eye of the Jade Princess, and you guys—" At the end, seeing the murderous look in Zhan Bai's eyes, he obediently shut his mouth.

Overlooking the entire island, it resembled a fairy dancing gracefully, so tranquil and gentle. As one gradually drew closer, the sound of marvelous celestial music drifted from within, inspiring boundless imagination.

Tested in this manner, Xiaoyaoye truly completed the transformation. In the blink of an eye, he turned into a giant, fat pig, running frantically across the jadeite floor and chasing after the spiritual venomous dragon.

That was the only time. From then on, Madam never displayed a similar emotion in my presence. Yet the word "Hell" was deeply branded into my heart. Hearing the term once more, that overwhelming oppression, terror, and trembling washed over me all at once.

Once the principal of No. 1 High School left the police station, he called the Ling family. He did not mention Gu Nianqiu's name, but simply explained the situation there and Ling Xiuqi's resolute determination to stay.

Having nothing better to do, Luotian wandered around the courtyard and discovered that the mist had actually dissipated, allowing everything around to be seen clearly.

Li Feis current attack power was insanely high, and his ability "One Force Breaks All Laws" could shatter skills released by enemies with lower attack power than his. As the black beam shot toward him, Li Feis palm blocked it, and it instantly dissipated into nothingness.

One had to admit that the temptation of money was immense. The driver unleashed astonishing driving skills, hitting 120 miles per hour right in the bustling heart of New York. Various driving stunts were performed back-to-back, and in about 15 minutes, they arrived at Hammer Industries.

Li Fei had achieved heaven-defying results on the Void Battlefield, only to suddenly vanish, leaving many people baffled. With such formidable strength, he clearly could have claimed the number one spot, yet he simply stopped fighting.

"Welcome, honored guests, to the Colosseum. Tonight, the Colosseum welcomes a long-awaited beast-fighting tournament, the first in two months. In this tournament, five formidable beastmen have successfully stood out from the crowd. Next, they will take turns challenging tonight's Beast King."

Moreover, the protective shield provided by the Supreme Xuanqing Formation was far stronger than the one used by that fellow back then. With Lin Kun's current capabilities, the shield he generated could withstand at least a full-strength blow from a peak Condensed Dan Realm powerhouse.
