Hou Congjie looked at him with a hint of amusement. No one wants a position without any perks; what is on a modern official's mind? People serve in office for a thousand miles solely for wealth. This battalion commander, with his thirty or forty good-for-nothings, can achieve no political merit and cannot get rich either. What is the point? There are only two possible outcomes: either he is a raving lunatic, or he has ulterior motives.

Wang Xujian knew he shouldn't disturb Wu Kai at this moment. He sipped his coffee while quietly observing the contemplative Wu Kai. At this time, Wu Kai’s expression made him feel that the man was unfathomable, possessing an indescribable quality that made him seem completely at odds with his actual age.

As the final few high-pitched notes rang out, a pitch-black spatial gate appeared silently within the cavern.

When Dark Cut smiled and entered her perception range, she realized the situation was dire. It was not as if Dark Cut hadn't sparred with Wildcat when she was uninjured. Strictly speaking, once movement speed exceeds ten meters per second, the threat to an ordinary person is much the same as at twenty meters per second; either way, you simply cannot catch their movements.

"Russian Tsar" Smelkin intercepted the football mid-way. Just as he was about to clear it, a breeze swept past, and a figure suddenly darted out from beside him, forcibly snatching the ball from his feet.

Not everyone gets to see in their lifetime the legendary aircraft-type attack robot—the only one of its kind in the world, manufactured by the Super Alliance—which is capable of anti-armor, anti-infantry, anti-building, and even, through self-detonation, anti-aircraft carrier operations. Those who have seen one and survived are few and far between.

In an instant, the breath of resentment that had been supporting You Xi completely dissipated. He gave a bitter laugh, his body, already suffering from severe injuries, began to sway, unable to stand any longer.

Within a day, as two Japanese formations consisting of over thirty warships headed aggressively toward Paradise Island, the island once again captured the attention of government officials worldwide. Many nations were surprised that Japan would dispatch such a large military force to Paradise Island.

Xu Gu’s face reddened slightly. Remembering the past, he felt a bit embarrassed. When they first met, he had not known she was frail and had indeed done many things he regretted.

If he could truly break free from his grandmother, relying on his current advantages, he would at least not stop here; he would certainly ascend to a higher level. His grandmother's current height would be his future height, and it was not impossible that he might even far surpass her.

Grandmother knew that although Chen Cheng was still useful to her, for Chen Cheng, there was no difference between the peak of the eighth rank and the intermediate ninth rank, because here, there wasn't even a single person of the seventh rank.

Now that his beloved was about to turn into a duck and fly off with someone else to build a life together, Wan Zhiwei was no saint; he could not bring himself to bless her life spent with another.

"The school made a mistake, it’s all fine now," Yun Mowei immediately reassured her, offering kind words of persuasion and even guaranteeing it.

Qin Yu looked at Liu Qian, her eyes filled with a despair Liu Qian had never seen before. Her pupils no longer held their former brightness, as if the endless night sky had obscured the last glimmer of light in her eyes.

"Hey!" She pushed Jun Ziyu away with a sudden force, slapped him hard, and ran off.

The next morning, the warm sun rose slowly. By the time the sky turned bright white, the Lin residence was bustling with activity, all preparing to bid farewell to Lin Shuhui and the others. Today, the third branch of the family was also leaving the Lin compound, preparing to follow Lin Yezi and the others to the Jiangnan region.

After all, there is a massive difference between cultivating solely in the martial way and reaching the Grandmaster level with the assistance of beast totem essence and blood. To abandon internal energy and switch to cultivating totem power is to pursue a much more formidable strength.

"But after high school, his grades dropped. Later, he only got into an ordinary university in the capital. His parents bought him an apartment there," Luo Nan continued.

Mi Heli watched her back, only then daring to reveal her worries. She pressed her palms together, bowing repeatedly to pray for heaven's protection.

As Sun Wukong threw this punch, the terrifying force seemed to compress into a dragon, breaking through dimensions and traveling between the realms of the Tao and the non-Tao.

Su Junhua and the others packed up the advertising signs and were about to leave. Although Su Junhua was anxious inside, he could not show it. He had to take the initiative to ask Du Yulu to buy their chickens; only by letting them propose the cooperation themselves could he then state his requirements and set his prices.

Why not let Li Youyou ruthlessly punish these people? If she wanted to, with just a glance, Li Youyou could have unleashed her full power. Alas, one can only say she was too merciful.

It was not that Xuan Wei was reluctant to part with the multi-flavored corn that could now be provided in batches; it was mainly that the corn cobs were too bulky. Unlike Xuan Wei, who possessed the supernatural ability to store items within his sleeves, Ruo Shui found it quite laborious to carry a bag of corn down the mountain.

Here, he donned a heavy suit of armor. The suit was crudely fashioned, with a very strange design.
