Qin Yu immediately withdrew the silver needle, then inserted seven more. With the aid of the silver needles, Wang Hu’s blood vessels were thoroughly cleared, and at least his life was preserved.
Not long after, the ambulance arrived and took Wang Hu away.
Qin Yu headed straight for the Hong family residence.
As he arrived, he encountered Xiang Ling, who was just stepping out.
Xiang Ling saw that it was Qin...
Leaving a temporary avatar behind to continue documenting events aboard the Argo, Qi Wuce followed Jason and his group of seven toward the palace.
Lin Tian narrowed his eyes slightly. While finding the King of the Deep Sea Whales would be difficult, it was not impossible. Once they located Poseidon Island, everything would become much easier.
“Could it really be that I am wrong?” Zhou Qingzheng, standing nearby, gazed at Wang Fuzhi, his emotions complicated. He wasn’t jealous of Wang Fuzhi—although he disagreed with some of Wang Fuzhi’s views, he deeply admired his scholarship.
Ling Yu knew well that Zhang Yuanzuo’s internal energy was formidable, so he dared not be careless. He pressed his tongue against the roof of his mouth, steadied his breath in his lower abdomen, planted his feet firmly, and quietly summoned the power of the Divine Thunder within him, letting it flow to the tips of his fists, ready to confront Zhang Yuanzuo’s twin palms.
The five elders responded and swiftly scanned the forest. They dared not recklessly use spiritual sense, for all the powers combined in this forest were certainly not weaker than their own Nether Capital.
Staring blankly at the wine flask in his hand, Qi Wuce was entranced by another voice in his heart. He felt like the serpent beside the forbidden fruit in Eden, tempting him with seductive words, luring him step by step into the abyss.
After settling the convoy and erasing all traces, Hawk Eye returned with the patrolling cavalry, confirming that no one was following.
After the Changling Gang unified Autumn Water City, all the cultivation manuals from the city’s factions were collected, including those from the Salt Gang. Together with the manuals previously given by Elder Gu, there were twenty-three yellow-grade manuals and two profound-grade ones, all handed over to Gu Zhong.
The team to kick off first was Hengda, with Paulinho holding the ball. He was the core of Hengda’s squad, a versatile midfielder capable of both offense and defense, like Feng Xinghai and Tendo Mamoru, and his abilities were already well proven.
They would certainly speed up production, for today had fully demonstrated the importance of the cloud ladder. Tomorrow, the foolish method of destroying the cloud ladder could no longer be used.
The old lady took off her reading glasses and looked me up and down, unsure of my identity. So, I repeated the nonsense I had just invented about being a family friend who had long ago benefited from Professor Du’s kindness, and now wished to thank her descendants.
Of course, when we used to date, we loved holding hands wherever we went. Zhang Minglang said he enjoyed holding hands.
Yun Jiao frowned. The Grandmaster had said she possessed the Heavenly Eye; in theory, curses and evil energies should not escape her sight. Why couldn’t she see anything? There was nothing in her meridians either, unless... it was hidden somewhere impenetrable.
Over there, Night Abyss ignored him, went straight into the house, laid the person in his arms onto the bed, and pulled the quilt over them meticulously.
At this moment, Bai Hanyu was still confused—first surprised, then astonished, and finally so overwhelmed that she began wildly speculating about the visitor’s origin.
“I still have important matters to attend to and cannot return for now,” Ying Lun said gravely. “You need not concern yourselves with my presence. Continue managing the souls of the underworld well.
