Chapter 34: The Candidate
"Barring any unforeseen circumstances, he will certainly be able to hold on until his younger brother or sister is born. By then, he will perform the surgery himself, and recovery will be swift afterward."
Yan Xiubai smiled and said, "Ningxi, I am truly grateful that you were able to bring in Professor Yang. With his words, we can finally set our minds at ease."
Previously, their greatest fear had been that Yan Qingyu would not be able to hold on until the baby was born. After all, leukemia could worsen at any moment, and once it deteriorated, even if the child were born, the umbilical cord—
But Luo Tian had no choice; the pain was real, a heart-wrenching, soul-tearing agony. He had no option but to be sedated.
As the land of a solar system gradually merged into it, the already vast and boundless first layer of the Abyss Continent grew even more massive.
The copper ring circled overhead, but Luo Tian merely narrowed his eyes, his lips curled in a slight smirk. The short sword in the air turned, diving downward to strike at the heart of White Impermanence. White Impermanence shuddered, a flash of horror crossing his eyes. The copper ring did not descend; instead, it whipped back, crashing into the short sword at his chest.
Back in Ziyun County, when Qin Lie accidentally glimpsed Lin Miaoke practicing, the spirit orb floating before her, swirling with green and fiery colors, was what they called an "outer elixir," also refined from spirit vein beads.
Zhao Ming stomped his foot, and a blue barrier of vital energy instantly solidified. The moment the three blood arrows touched the barrier, they exploded completely. The resulting spray of blood lashed against the shield, but it only caused the blue light to ripple, unable to advance a single step further.
Therefore, the moment Ye Zhuo finished refining the Black Hawk’s Fallen Feathers, he had already made up his mind: he would go in and see for himself. He would deal with whatever happened when he got there. He couldn't just be scared off by his own imagination; that was not how a disciple of Liyun Island should behave.
"Teacher, my strength is not yet sufficient. I plan to wait until I have mastered my abilities before I challenge it," Shen Tianyu said.
Xia Mingfeng looked up at the dense swarm of black energy spheres rushing toward him and threw out a palm strike. A series of white palm prints formed, continuously merging into the black spheres of spiritual energy ahead, transforming into several giant hands that slapped toward the black-robed figure a dozen meters away.
Having completed the main system quest and reunited with Luo Bing'er, I was rewarded with a super experience pill. I wonder what level of cultivation I will reach after consuming it?
Qin Lie, however, was unwilling to wait passively. During his moment of enlightenment, he simply chose the most laborious method.
When my youth faded away, I no longer grieved for the passing seasons, nor did I lament the impermanence of life. Because I know that life is simply life; it will never change based on our fantasies.
Su Mu was secretly delighted. Two at the limit of the middle-tier Emperor level, two at the middle-tier, and six at the early-tier—with such terrifying strength, we can finally have a fair and square fight with the Blood Angels.
Sweat beaded on Tang Shaoyan’s forehead. He had used all his strength to save the Russian woman’s life, but when she might wake up remained a mystery.
On comfortable single-seat sofas reclined three bloated, pig-eared men. At their feet, three beautiful young women were massaging their feet.
I gave a bitter smile. The reason I interrupted her was, first, that the news excited me. Second, I didn't feel our conversation was particularly formal. I was just treating it as a casual chat.
Those outside had clearly misunderstood. They hurriedly replied, "Yes," and then the sound of footsteps retreated, so as not to disturb the master's amusement.
Before Shi Xinbei could finish her sentence, Qi Shimin stepped forward and grabbed her slender throat, pinning her tightly against the wall of the elevator.
The people below didn't even need to be asked; they spoke up. Because there were so many people together at the time, no one knew who had done the pushing, and no one had paid attention. Even if they had noticed, it would be impossible to find out.
Lin Man raised her eyes in confusion. Zhao Xin’s words carried so much information that she couldn't process it all at once.
