Chapter 21: I Never Break a Promise to a Lady

Song Qiao had not expected that after all this time, he would not even remember her name.
Glancing at Jiang Lin, who looked equally surprised, she feigned composure and said, "With all due respect to the Marquis, this concubine's name is Song Yuan."
Mu Yi asked with an air of indifference, laced with heavy mockery, "The 'Yuan' of a wronged ghost?"
Since she had a favor to ask, she told herself that even if it were more than just a taunt, she would have to endure it...
Everyone broke into a cold sweat; it seemed that Weiwei was growing, even learning to recognize insults directed at her.
"Form up!" The Avenger and the Holy Knight immediately organized into a fan-shaped formation, blocking the three enemies before them.
"You told me this wound wasn't serious, you idiot!" Huang Rong choked out as she tore away the shirt that had stuck to Yue Ye's skin from the blood, revealing a long, jagged laceration.
In the universe where the apocalypse took place, the stars remained motionless. One could not see the moon, nor find where it lay; naturally, there was no way to land on it, let alone cultivate the Mysterious Yellow Body Refining Technique there.
"Marine reconnaissance units have deployed on the peninsula, but they lack heavy weapons support and struggle to pose a threat to the Mobile Suits," the Marine commander stated cautiously, voicing his concerns.
Afterward, the Capture God knocked Cold-Blooded unconscious. Emotionless tried to gain control of him, but failed.
The result was that even though their intellects told them it was merely salt, their bodies involuntarily found it delicious beyond measure, as if under a hypnotic spell.
The cold wind bit like a blade; atop this five-thousand-foot peak, the gusts struck Xuan Yue like frozen knives, sending waves of stinging pain throughout his body.
With both the umbrella and the Lake Toya sword appearing, a pair of rimless glasses naturally materialized on the puppet's face.
"It's the same building, why don't you try it?" Wang Fen slowly withdrew the black diamond supreme card and placed it gently on the table.
Lin Tang found it somewhat amusing, yet he could not bring himself to smile. Staring at her face, made all the more beautiful by the light, he felt a bitter ache in his heart.
"If you aren't afraid of being eaten by a wild cat, then run. No one can undo my transformation spell," Luke said, watching his cousin hop away without making any move to chase her.
Perhaps because it was a ranked match, this guy was quite "eccentric." After being solo-killed by Lin Tang once, likely because his jungler didn't come to help, he simply went to follow the jungler around instead.
"No, I want to resurrect her, no matter what she has become or whether she retains her memories," Snape said with ironclad resolve.
Most ridiculous of all were those who could not even distinguish the head of an arrow from the tail; they used the fletching as the point, fired it at the target, and looked quite pleased with themselves.
Murong Mingcong stared at her for a long while before finally sighing. He reached out to lift Jiang Jiuxun, frowning slightly as he thought to himself that she was far too thin.
Jiang Jiuxun was shocked by Su Youying's sudden strike. The tearing pain in her back brought beads of cold sweat to her forehead, leaving her speechless for a moment. Recalling the humiliation of being forced to kowtow on the ground just yesterday, her heart burned with unquenchable resentment.
The screen displayed a giant poster featuring Xin Tian's silhouette. Everything was rendered in elegant, muted colors, save for a single camellia tattoo on her shoulder, which looked incredibly lifelike.
Had she not been careful, she would have been injured, but since she knew in advance, she deliberately avoided friction, minimizing the damage as much as possible.
CRN did not pick LeBlanc to counter Fiora, as both possessed immense burst damage. Fiora had the potential to outplay and one-shot LeBlanc, and should that happen, their journey in the World Championship would end in failure.
Gan Liuzi’s home was at North Jing Bridge. He had a ninety-year-old mother who was also quite famous in the martial arts world, known as Mother Gan Er-Ai. In her youth, she worked in the armed escort business with her father and mastered formidable hard-style kung fu, capable of wielding an eighty-pound broadsword. After marrying Gan Liuzi’s father, she changed professions to become a lone bandit.
