Chapter 64: Mirror Demon and Medusa (Thanks to Grand Lord Mojing for the Alliance sponsorship)
The "Mirror Demon" was brought up.
From her name alone, her allure was evident.
Especially with Medusa set as a precedent of peerless beauty.
However, when the "Mirror Demon" walked into the hall, the demeanor she displayed, completely different from everyone's expectations, shocked everyone present.
Was she beautiful? Beautiful!
Was she alluring? It seemed... alluring too.
Yet... it was just... but... however...
She wore plain robes, which contrasted with the dazzling array of magnificent jewelry and jade ornaments adorning her. Several fist-sized night-pearls emitted a soft glow, a rooster-crest red jade carving of a horse stepping on a flying swallow was large enough to require both hands to hold steadily, a chilling dagger, several bottles of medicinal pills, and at the bottom lay a few secret manuals.
Since the giant crocodile could grow to such a size, it naturally possessed spiritual awareness and could certainly sense danger. The danger it sensed came from Liu Yu's Azure Dragon Sword, a supreme spiritual weapon that belonged to the top tier even in the cultivation world, let alone on Earth.
I did not know where Jingyu was taking Yingze, but when Jingyu asked the Grand Ancestor for permission to take Yingze out for a stroll, the Grand Ancestor did not stop him, so presumably, they would not encounter any major trouble.
"Military academies are meant to cultivate our military qualities, not for dating," Su Luo replied coldly.
Master Lu had only been happy for a few days before receiving another piece of bad news. Such dramatic ups and downs were not enough to make him collapse, but they were still enough to make him lose control of himself and his composure.
After carefully observing the situation in the basement, Yin Tianchou found that there were no guards posted there, so he slipped through the branches into the underground palace.
And right at that moment, he opened his eyes abruptly. Before him, the pool of water reappeared, and he was standing sound and safe right in front of it.
Of course, operations had not officially begun yet; it could only be said that product manufacturing and factory operations were running smoothly.
I decided that after this matter was settled, I must diligently study cultivation arts with Canghuan, lest I find myself helpless when facing such scenes in the future.
Although that suffering was endured, the gains were undeniable. The twenty percent inner qi upper limit of the two acupoints provided over ninety thousand points—this improvement was a massive leap forward.
Everyone was once again astonished by Ji Yuning's talent; he could effortlessly translate the rich poetic imagery of classical poetry into colloquial language, making it sound so exquisite. Moreover, it carried the unique national style deeply rooted in the hearts of all Chinese people.
Once the second-generation Xubai could generate soul abilities, Gao Yu might be able to glean some clues from him.
What he had just used was a cloak capable of concealing spiritual pressure created by Kisuke Urahara, combined with a ghost-path incantation that allowed him to turn invisible.
Later, the production team issued a clarification, and because too many subsequent events took place, gradually no one paid attention to this matter anymore.
It wasn't that she didn't want to beat up Fang Nianyao, but ever since the movie press conference, she had developed a trauma regarding Jiang Tong's design schemes. She was afraid that instead of beating Fang up, she would fall into her trap herself, and then she would still have to find a way to bail her out.
Although Lin Meng failed to get anything out of Lin Xu, both the teacher and the driver claimed nothing had happened.
If Deng Hai really ran away, it would prove that his previous claims of being coerced by the Angel Foundation were all lies.
She had never believed in ghosts before, yet she still dared not watch horror movies. But now that she had even encountered transmigration, perhaps the existence of ghosts in this world was no longer so strange?
Returning to the director's office, she could no longer control the anger in her heart and smashed an antique ornament from the doorway onto the floor.
Instead of lingering on the city walls, they turned back into the inner hall of the city lord's mansion and began discussing how to break through the encirclement.
Therefore, although the first platoon would consume bullets while killing zombies, because they were not the main force, their ammunition losses were relatively small.
With no other choice, having deployed a massive military force into the capital circle to maintain order, dispatched numerous transport ships to rush in supplies, and mobilized personnel to rescue the industrial, agricultural, and financial systems, Yulin was left completely overwhelmed. He no longer had the bandwidth to deploy legions to strike at the rebels.
A figure wearing a phoenix-feathered purple-gold crown, golden chain-mail armor, and lotus-silk cloud-walking boots appeared before them.
As one 150mm artillery shell after another rained down from the sky, the advancing wave of zombies was instantly halted.
At this very moment, the peak divine power crystal suddenly trembled, and countless law chains converged within the box, forming a massive torrent that collided with Feng Xingzhi.
Sikong Ruxun and Prince Sikong Rulang shared a deep brotherly bond, and this matter had reached Sikong Ruxun's ears through Sikong Rulang himself.
"Unless what?" Guan Huang asked hurriedly. As for Zhang Fei, he widened his eyes like copper bells, staring motionless at Cao Cao.
No matter how promising Shi Zhongkui's future was, punishment was inevitable to avoid a full-scale war among the Three Teachings.
As soon as the words fell, Suan eagerly uncorked the vial. A rich medicinal fragrance drifted out, leaving the few people present feeling refreshed, and Suan's eyes lit up.
"Really? If Liancheng is a good boy and listens, will Daddy bring the pretty older sister back?" The childish, innocent smiling face instantly brightened with joy.
Throughout her life, her greatest taboo was anyone threatening her, and at this moment, Zheng Qiulin had completely touched that bottom line.
Unaware of the situation, the sales clerk enthusiastically led Wang Xing to look at this brand of cosmetics.
"Would a good person constantly boast about being a good person? Haven't you figured it out by now, the bigger the villain, the harder they try to prove they are a good person?" Li Wenyuan finally spoke up.
Qian Nan's face flushed slightly as he lowered his head. Thinking of that gaze full of concern, a turbulent storm surged in his heart. He wanted to kill the Princess Consort, but would the Princess Consort allow him and her to live together happily ever after?
"How is it? I didn't lie to you, did I? Absorbing just a tiny bit of the demon's power has already allowed your strength to make significant progress. If you fully transform into a demon, your strength will become even more terrifying!" A figure resembling an aged insect emerged from the gravity chamber.
I had roughly heard the old master recount Zhang Juzheng's background: he passed the provincial imperial examination at age 16 and became a Jinshi in the 26th year of the Jiajing reign at 23, which was relatively slow compared to me holding a fifth-rank official post at this age.
"Grandfather is ill, and I urgently need to head back tomorrow. Please grant me leave; I will make up the leave slip for the personnel department when I return." Feihu ignored Wang Qian's affectation and solely spoke of his own matters.
Blaspheming the Princess Consort and ruining the royal family's reputation—such a grave crime meant that if he lacked ruthlessness, the fate awaiting his Su family would only be heavier and more tragic.
Lana's gaze instantly wandered into mid-air. She was pondering what kind of vocabulary she could use to describe his value.
These two Daoist soldiers were naturally not crafted by Eunuch Wang, but rather discovered by him in the place where he found the witch's blood.
