“Not excessive…” Zhou Changkong’s eyes narrowed slightly at the words, and with a smile he asked, “But still not good enough?”

His tone was measured, each word weighed carefully as he pondered the meaning behind Liu Shen’s phrase “not good enough.”

“Let us set aside the first condition mentioned by Young Master Zhou,” Liu Shen said calmly. “The second condition, which Young Master Zhou spoke of, is a mere eighty thousand taels—hardly worth mentioning.”

He spoke lightly, as if the sum of eighty thousand taels was insignificant.

The reason for this was consideration for Lin Qi, who might not have any treasures on hand to support aerial flight.

Facing the sky, the two shouted in unison, and instantly their bodies were enveloped in a golden light. Charles and Diana were then bathed in divine golden radiance, each grasping golden spears and heavenly bows, as if gods had descended to the mortal realm.

“Excellent! Of course that’s excellent!” Teacher Tao praised without reservation, his gaze upon Lan Zhixin growing ever more fervent. This newcomer’s adaptability was impressive.

As for the experimental potion, Elder Dong naturally would never entrust it to Han Yiqian. Even if he were asked to test it, he would hesitate. It was little more than Xiao Yan’s half-truth exaggeration, meant solely to show Lin Xiyao that Third Young Master truly cared for her.

He stubbornly believed that all of this was not due to Lin Qi’s fault, but because there was something amiss with the Heavenly Dao Pearl challenge itself.

“Move again and I’ll get angry!” The man’s face tightened as he grasped her hands firmly. His chin tilted slightly upward, the sharp lines lending a seductive allure, while a wild masculine aura began to emanate from him.

The assassin closed his eyes tightly. This sword, he knew, was destined to pierce deep into his chest. With Xiao Yang’s skill, even pinning him to a wall would be effortless.

During their time in the provincial capital, the famous star Liu Bingbing, along with Sun Li, had nearly agreed to follow Shan Zhu. They certainly knew the value of the three century-old ginseng fruits Shan Zhu had given.

Fandi looked over the menu, his heart stirred. Luo Qishan was truly considerate to remember this detail, knowing his fondness for Sichuan flavors, and even arranged for Wu Guoli to assist temporarily at Da Kaixuan. The idea was brilliant and bold.

Thus, the elective course lasted two semesters, but only a small number of students enrolled—fewer than thirty, twenty-five of whom were boys.

This explained why Qin Yu could find no flaws—the soul simply was not present here.

For this very reason, even Irena’s Earth God-level sword energy could not destroy the crimson orb in a short time. This inadvertently saved the Blood Demon King’s life, as the orb absorbed most of Irena’s attention, preventing her from shredding the Blood Demon King to bits in one fell swoop.

That scarlet light, facing two opponents, showed no sign of faltering. Seizing the moment, Yun Yao attempted to reclaim the Fulong Returning Cauldron, urging it repeatedly, but the cauldron seemed rooted in place, utterly immovable.

On the street, they hailed a three-wheeled passenger motorcycle, the two bumping along noisily as they sped toward the countryside. It was easy to find a Zhuang family’s home and settle there. Known for their hospitality, the Zhuang people warmly welcomed the two guests that very evening.

If these Pig Tribe people had trustworthy supervisors, no problems would arise. Given enough food, these simpletons could sleep in the mud for a month. But when tens of millions of Pig Tribe members appeared, Robert had to admit that he lacked enough capable subordinates to lead them all.

The Taiji Chaos Heavenly God Thunder and the Yin-Yang Mystic Magnetic Qi were not Yuan Hong’s own abilities, but rather the chaotic primordial essence carried within the Refining Demon Pot itself.

Amidst the Three Wolves Army, the strange general ordered the troops to clear a path. The battle king, his waist acupoints sealed and forced to kneel unable to stand, had countless words unsaid and longed to halt the foolish soldiers, yet was powerless to speak, helplessly watching the three be taken away. The soldiers’ hateful, contemptuous gazes then turned back to him.
