Volume 1, Chapter 136: A Heart-to-Heart Between Grandfather and Grandson

Bandage had just stepped out of a tent when, hearing Demutu’s voice, he immediately ran in that direction. The moment he arrived, he understood exactly what Demutu meant by "strange": this was the only tent that bore any signs of a struggle.

The group had traveled light, galloping along the river valley for over two hours until, finally, the exit came into view. Excitement flickered in their eyes.

"We have arrived. Please, Your Highnesses, step inside." He had been preparing ever since he learned of the royal couple's impending visit, though he worried that a county dwelling could never compare to the grandeur of the palace, and he feared they might be dissatisfied.

Among the burly men of the Weilan tribe, a few began to weep like infants. Their unfeigned tears streamed down like rain, coating their helmets; cruelly, they could not even wipe them away, forced to bow their heads and let the tears soak their eyes.

Mo Chen was struck with terror, but the oppressive aura of the Soul Refining realm left him unable to move, forcing him to watch as the palm descended upon him.

Meanwhile, Demutu and Long Yusheng felt as though they had met as kindred spirits, already calling each other brothers. Demutu was rough by nature, while Long Yusheng was straightforward and bold; the two hit it off immediately, finding each other perfectly to their liking.

"LeBron, to challenge me in the very first game—you’ve learned to be proactive." Sun Zhuo felt slightly troubled, though he didn't feel the need to use that special training card just yet.

Night Demon was a Western man in his late thirties, standing one hundred and eighty-five centimeters tall with a medium build.

"Was it Long Haoran’s men monitoring us just now?" Helan Yao frowned. It seemed Wanyue already knew they were safe and sound.

However, he did not know that Sun Zhuo's desire to win this match was no less intense than his own.

Xu Xiaoxiao loathed being involved in such repulsive matters, but since Wang Rui had followed company orders and asked for her, she had no choice but to show him that respect.

"Well?" At this moment, Ye Qing also turned to ask Chu Chen, his tone naturally tinged with a hint of urgency.

Therefore, after Bai Yu rose, she went to the courtyard for her usual stroll. Since Huo Yunting was away, Wang Caihua stepped up to support her, and she smiled while exchanging a few words with Wang Caihua and Chen Erhu, who was keeping a worried watch nearby.

The Xu family company had been operating for many years, possessing connections, reputation, and name recognition that a newly founded company could never match; he did not want to abandon the family business until the very last resort.

"Though the price is steep, it is worth every penny!" many whispered, their gazes fixed on the auction item with glints of intensity, and one might even say a hidden greed.

Lin Fu’er, left with no choice, gave in and took a bite of the steamed bun; she, too, wanted to taste the fare from the bun shop. Lin Lu’er followed suit, nestling in her grandmother's arms as she ate with delight.

Chen Yuanwu’s chest heaved violently. He tightened his grip on Jiang Jun’s arm, his fist hanging at his side clenched white.

On the other side, since Chen Hao had slain one venomous bee and Red Rose had lured another away, he only had to deal with five at once, significantly reducing the pressure.

The main purpose of this press conference was to promote to those in the IT circle and mobile phone manufacturers; other media were secondary, but the editor from IT Online was definitely a guest of honor.

Tuantuan looked at her mother in disbelief, her eyes slowly welling up with mist, as if a single blink would release a flood of tears.

Hearing this, Gu Sanyuan and Lu Hao were both completely bewildered; neither of them knew what task Mu Qingqing had entrusted to Gu Fei’er.

This single piece of Rouge Stone alone was a priceless treasure, more than enough to serve as a dowry; naturally, no fault could be found with it.

Yun Qiqi ate her flatbread happily, feeling as though her stomach were a bottomless pit; she had already finished two large pieces and still wasn't full.

Chen Mu’s Red Cloud Staff froze in mid-air. Although his right arm still ached from the opponent's blow, since the other had conceded, he had no reason to continue.

There were only a few fish, which was hardly worth mentioning; sometimes one could stand on the suspension bridge for the time it takes to brew a cup of tea without seeing a single shadow.

As the sentence concluded, Hao Yun swung his long sword violently, and the Green Lion’s form shattered like foam, vanishing without a trace.

He climbed up from the ground. "Sss, sss, sss," a crackling power of purple lightning began to emerge from his body.

"Are you talking to yourself about divinity? To delusionally claim you are an agent of the gods—did you ever seek their permission? What a pipe dream." Chen Fan sneered as he watched him.

Hao Yun shuddered violently. Did the Ancient One mean that Thanos could still assemble all six Infinity Stones and wipe out half the life in the universe?

Yet, after running for a long time, the path grew narrower and darker, and he still did not see Mo Huaijin’s figure.

At this moment, a Foundation Establishment cultivator sitting beside Nangong Huang showed a flicker of anxiety on his face.

"Must I wash? Can't I skip it?" Du Yusheng hadn't even seen them pour a single drop of hot water into the basin.

"Since that is the case, I have no need to show you mercy." Chu Qing had long been filled with hatred for Tong Sudong; Yu Fei’s disability was entirely her doing.

Li Xinru’s primary identity was that of a vice-dean, and only secondarily a teacher, so she taught very few classes—no more than two or three a month.

"Bet fifty thousand on Chen Long to win." Rooney didn't dare call out one hundred thousand this time; the freakish display from moments ago was simply too much for him to handle, so he cut his wager in half.

Mu Wanqing shuddered; she hadn't expected Deng Feiyang to be so cautious, arranging soldiers even in the remote southern suburbs.

At first, Han Youxuan didn't know what was happening, looking around curiously, but when the sound rang out again, she finally discovered its source.

The New York Red Bulls originally only had Henry, but now they also had Chopa. Chen Long could not help but think of the partnership between Messi and Henry back in Barcelona.

Ji Yucheng sat cross-legged on the ground, just about to use his origin power and faith power to purge the cold and malicious energies. However, he discovered Huang Zhen’s hand resting upon him.

Du Manning didn't give her a chance to speak, shoving her out the door and slamming it shut. The room suddenly fell silent, save for her own heavily suppressed gasps. She curled up in the corner of the sofa and closed her eyes, but tears slid down her face like beads from a broken string.
