A mix of cigar smoke and the musky smell of sweat filled the air, pressing in heavily.

Zhao Xiangyao and Cui Linglong were locked in a fierce battle. Their skills were evenly matched, and neither held back. In a short time, both of them had accumulated multiple wounds.

On the surface of Mirror Lake, nine fragments of a key were intertwined, dancing and glowing in a dazzling display, until they finally began to form the outline of a single key.

The clone's consciousness wanted to launch an attack, but now was not the best time; the ideal moment would be when the original body was still alive. With the original as a distraction, a sneak attack from the clone would temporarily render Yuchengzi’s body defenseless, allowing the original to strike and kill him, a far better plan than letting Yuchengzi break them apart one by one.

I wanted to use the Relic Sword to slice through this dark mist, but the sword was too sharp; one strike could hurt my grandmother as well.

He stopped Jiang Chen, intending it for his own good. Yet the situation that unfolded was beyond his imagination, especially the gesture Jiang Chen made, pointing back at him before he left. It left him with a pounding heart.

After setting up camp, he crawled into the tent, at least shielded from some of the cold. Poking the coals in the fire basin, Li Congjing once again felt as though his feet weren’t grounded, as if he wasn’t rooted in this era—a feeling that stemmed from his loss of self.

The Laguna Hotel, the only inn and tavern in Wendurhan City, had a large lobby serving as both a guest lounge and the bar area. Although the space was vast, only about twenty tables were scattered sparsely across it.

"That’s right!" Lin Han exclaimed, suddenly realizing. He quickly took out a Purification Scroll, crushing it in his hand. Instantly, a gentle white light spread across the cliff's edge, and Lin Han felt the strange energy restraining him dissipate, while He Mengyan and the other two regained their vision.

Li Yun looked at Lu Yao with shock, feeling as if he was staring into the depths of this young general’s eyes, which seemed to see right through his carefully guarded thoughts.

Seeing *Lost in a Lifetime* release the third wave of ten chapters didn’t seem like much at first. But when you add them all up…

Today, he openly admitted his relationship with Li Sijie, partly intending to provoke Miao Xuanxuan. Unfortunately, she didn’t seem to care, proving she truly had no feelings left for him.

Feng Can looked at the map for a moment, nodded in partial understanding, then handed it back to Tian Jing and closed his eyes. Tian Jing shooed everyone out of the room, leaving only Song Xiaodong.

Without a word, the traffic officer hopped onto the police car, grabbed the radio, and informed the traffic officers stationed at the next intersection.

Out of gratitude for Jingwei, Yin Lingzi gave up her demonic clan status to serve under her. But Jingwei declined, suggesting instead that Yin Lingzi be a good demon and refrain from harming others.

Qin Feng turned to Li Changfu with a slight smile, signaling his old friend not to worry and to be patient a bit longer. Li Changfu forced a smile that looked more like a grimace.

He was already familiar with this information, but hearing it in person allowed him to catch details he might have missed. For example—whenever Farnas mentioned Jing Changsheng, her expression held a slight, poorly hidden awkwardness, which piqued Xiao Cheng’s curiosity.

Murong Yan glanced at him, mumbled something under her breath, and then shifted her gaze indifferently around the room.

As expected, the fans of *Three Lives* were ecstatic upon seeing the song titles, flooding the comments with how perfectly they matched the lyrics' atmosphere.

In future China, only about 150,000 oracle bones would be preserved, with countless others lost overseas. Even the Houmuwu Ding, an “inferior item” left behind during wartime due to its bulk, had once been forgotten at an airport. It was unimaginable what precious artifacts might have been taken to Taiwan or overseas.

I paused, turning back to look at the two skeletons. Previously, with so many *Manjusaka* flowers around, I had only given them a casual glance. Now, upon closer inspection, I noticed some subtle differences.

A warrior once paid me a visit. Although our connection was not as deep as that of Cao Yuan and I, we had interacted briefly before. She was simply here to pay her respects.

At that moment, Bobby prepared to use *E* to slam Wu Da against the wall, but Wu Da’s *E* triggered first, stunning Bobby. He quickly placed a ward in the bushes and dashed in, while Bobby and the spider lost sight of him.

By the time I returned to the hotel, it was already past two in the morning. Cao Yuan and the others were waiting for me and immediately informed me that negotiations between Rafael, Simmons, and the Gambino family had concluded.

The giant spider, momentarily stunned by the situation, recovered and struck at Mo Lan with a lightning-fast steel stinger from beneath its abdomen.

Upon joining the inner sect, she was taken by Elder Yinghua to a secluded training ground for closed-door cultivation. It was only recently that she was able to emerge.

Li Yifei paid no attention to what he was saying; he had his own plans. In an instant, he struck with true energy, hitting a large, wobbling rat.

What frustrated her was that Wu Di completely ignored her, treating her as if she didn’t exist.

“Brother Lu, it’s lunchtime. Come over to the school for a bit.” Ding Ding’s voice suddenly grew urgent.

Seeing the crowd’s dismissive attitude toward Luo Zheng, Princess Golden Wing and Nangong Xing’s faces turned angry. They were about to speak up but stopped when Luo Zheng signaled them with his eyes.
