Her stomach contracted in violent spasms, and warm liquid began to leak uncontrollably from between her legs, flowing in a continuous stream that stained the lower half of her cheongsam and her sheer silk stockings, shielding her from further sparks and dampening the intense heat rising from the ground beneath her.
"This child looks somewhat premature," Pan Li said with a hint of certainty. Such a frail and sickly infant could surely only be a premature baby.
She confessed that her marriage with her husband could no longer continue... Her mind was under severe and suffocating constraints, and in a fit of rage, she had resorted to a knife... She had nothing more to say.
The Lord of the Azure Moon experienced a violent tremor in her heart. Without needing to ponder deeply, she instantly understood that the Lord of Chaos must have obtained astonishing fortune and already ascended to become a Supreme Being.
Murong Wei watched with a start, noticing how his fingernails were tinged with a bluish hue, his complexion pale and ghostly, and his lips a deep purple. A sudden thought occurred to her.
This time, without waiting for Gu Shiqing to pull her along, she reversed their roles instead, stepping forward to grab Gu Shiqing's hand, eager to run away quickly.
Yet when she raised her head, Xue Chenshao was already so far away that not even his shadow remained. Cheng Zirui's heart instantly filled with panic, pain, and sorrow, for she feared she might lose Kang Yelangu once again.
For the longest time, I had been pursuing a sense of ease and peace in life, but all of this now appeared to be nothing more than my own self-consolation. How could there ever be such a thing as tranquil years in this mortal world? It was merely that some people refused to face the chaotic entanglements of humanity, hiding themselves away like turtles pulling their heads into their shells.
"The supreme powerhouse who set up that grand formation earlier clearly intended to guard Jiangbei. How could anyone dare to harbor malicious intentions toward Jiangbei?" Chen Tie asked after a moment of reflection.
Right now, the most appropriate course of action for him was not to go searching for further fortuitous encounters, but to halt his steps and attempt to discover whether he could forge a brand-new realm.
Murong Jinghong widened his eyes in utter astonishment. For a fleeting moment, he thought he was suffering from auditory hallucinations, yet her breath was so near and her words still lingered beside his ear—how could it possibly be an illusion?
Every single demon that charged into the vicinity of this vortex was instantly sucked inside, where a series of sickening crunching sounds ground them into a bloody paste of flesh and bone in the blink of an eye.
"Uncle, come take a look at this. What on earth is this thing?" Wang Dong placed the object before Zhao Danian and asked with a puzzled expression.
Not long after, Murong Jinghong returned to the room, his expression noticeably altered, as though he were burdened by some unspoken worry.
Xiangqiao finished brewing the medicinal decoction and carried it into the bedchamber. Just as she crossed the threshold, she heard Ling Jiantong's soft coughs.

"You want all of them?" Xiang Yuilan's eyes widened in disbelief as she stared at Wang Dong, utterly failing to grasp his intentions.
And only people of such status were worthy of being personally received by Xuan Kun, the master of the Black Wind Stronghold.
It was not until Liu Shuang and Liu Xin had departed from the barbecue restaurant that the owner finally dared to dial the emergency numbers. That pampered Young Master Hua, who was currently left with only his last ragged breaths and no strength left to exhale, absolutely could not be allowed to die inside his establishment, or else the consequences would be catastrophic.
The two of them had undoubtedly stumbled into that Yaochi Secret Realm by pure chance in the past. Even if they were to revisit the old site now, finding the entrance once again would likely prove exceedingly difficult. Moreover, even if they managed to re-enter that secret realm, there was no guarantee they could accomplish anything remarkable, seeing as even Old Tong had not revealed his true form back then.
Though the monkey shrieked fiercely, it did not actually make a move; its darting eyes rolled wildly about, brimming with cleverness.
Mulan stood waiting outside for quite a while before stepping into the tunnel to lower the stone door sealing the cave entrance.
Then it would be far better to let Hongli try his hand at governing while he was still alive and possessed the energy to oversee it, serving as a safeguard in the background.
As Xiangdou pondered these thoughts, her eyes unconsciously grew red, but fearing that her mistress might notice, she hurriedly rubbed her eyes in a pretense of casualness.
In Baiga's view, President Lin possessed profound wisdom; simply by scheduling a week of gaming for his employees, he had effortlessly forged an exceptionally talented gaming team.
Zhao Yunming had no idea what kind of sheer willpower he had relied upon to persist in keeping his silence.
Leo maintained his usual upright and dignified style of conduct, directly bringing the matter out into the open.
"I will not lower my head. If it mocks me, I will surely reduce it to ashes," Talulah said.
Reflected upon the surface of the water that mirrored them both, at the opposite end of that aqueous world, Kim Ji-soo believed she had seen a rainbow at that very moment.
Every nook and cranny of the land from the first to the third district bore the footprints left behind by him and her.
"It's fine, it's fine. In a few days, your memory will return," Zhu Hongda immediately comforted her.

Unlike the warm and harmonious atmosphere of the Silver Wolf Tribe, the Winged Lion Tribe spent an exceptionally arduous winter, suffering heavy casualties among their people.
He believed that this young Prince would honor his word. The character of a commander determined the nature of his subordinates; one could easily gauge the usual demeanor of this Prince of Qin simply by looking at that vanguard general who had resorted to bombarding and storming the city at the slightest disagreement.
Wang Mei possessed a gentle exterior masking an unyielding spirit, and Wang Xu's lack of ambition seemed to have broken her heart. Upon arriving at Great King City, she went straight to the clan's ancestral secret realm and never even set foot in the Taihe Restaurant.
Empress Ziyue had no choice but to join the Star Peak, though she attached one condition: that her presence be kept low-key and unpublicized. Zhang Liang naturally understood the reason—Ziyue was afraid of her senior cousin finding out she was at the Taixuan Sect.
In the later stages, once both warring parties became accustomed to this pattern of combat, they would naturally derive numerous methods of countermeasure.
The restless zombie hopped and bounded about, constantly shifting its position within the cave, even circling around behind Wang Xu on several occasions to sniff continuously with its nose.
Sima Yi woke with a violent start to find everyone staring directly at him. Panic seized his heart, and he dropped to his knees before Cao Cao, prompting laughter from all present.
"How glad I am to see you, old master. If I'm not mistaken, my predecessor's transformation from a genius into a good-for-nothing was your handiwork, wasn't it?" Wang Xu sat in a chair; accustomed to the tempests of life, he felt not the slightest bit surprised by the elderly figure emerging from the ring.
While stabilizing the order of Taiyuan City, Bai Shan also dispatched messengers to issue summons of surrender to more than a dozen cities under the jurisdiction of the Taiyuan Prefecture.
This meeting concluded inconclusively; Sun Quan remained indecisive and wavering. Oppressed by vexation, he wished to visit Lady Wu simply to have a casual chat.
Pure white light enveloped Zhang Chi. In a dimension devoid of the palaces of the Mafi Star Cluster, Zhang Chi instantly accelerated into a voyage operating at a thousand times the speed of light.
"You cannot change it even if you wish to now. Just think of it as taking a short rest; you won't die anyway," the white fox remarked. With her presence as a spatial observer, it was exceedingly difficult for peak star-cluster-level entities to perish.
Had it been anyone else instead of Liang Xiao and the Chaotic Lotus Seed, encountering such a dense torrent of chaotic spatial meteors would have resulted in being smashed to smithereens, or perhaps even having their very soul scattered into nothingness.
As fellow men, Fu Wan could understand the feeling. To sleep with the concubine of a previous dynasty's emperor—what kind of sensation would that evoke for a man, especially Zhang Ji, the founding emperor of the succeeding dynasty?
