Chapter 84: Piercing Her Lungs

“How could this be?”
Li Xinchun wiped away her tears and recounted everything that had happened recently to her mother.
Although she and Jiang Huaiting lived together, he had never shown any physical desire toward her again.
Sometimes, he would stare blankly in a certain direction before checking his phone for messages.
The worst was when, in his sleep, Jiang Huaiting called out Li Jiuwei’s name.
In that moment, Li Xinchun felt her heart shatter into pieces.
But no one could anticipate everything; who knew what would happen when Xu Yang returned once more?
The Tang Emperor decreed that anyone aged fifteen or older but not yet fifty was to participate in the training of new recruits.
This was also why many teams arranged for a super sixth man in their second lineup—not only for their scoring ability but also for their ability to control the game and help their team on the scoreboard.
Instead, she glanced at the wine in Second Master Zhao’s hand and said, “I’m sorry, though my family is poor, my parents already arranged a marriage for me long ago. I’m afraid I can’t become your concubine.”
Each person’s Asura method was different, yet they shared a common trait: a medium was always required. Mizuki’s crossing was Russell’s medium, for she bore Russell’s soul mark. As Mizuki grew ever stronger, Russell’s soul would begin to awaken within her.
Above the fiery clouds, Xu Yang and Yun Lifeng fled swiftly. As they glanced toward the battlefield, deafening explosions resounded, and waves of energy surged outward in fierce tides.
In reality, apart from restricting Hathaway’s freedom with the lattice cage, Red Union provided her with the highest standard of treatment in every other regard.
Compared to the clear advantage shown by the navy, Red Union’s air force was under much greater pressure. They faced enemies several times their number, and there was no technological gap to exploit.
Career evolution—this blueprint was the one Zhang Yang coveted the most. With it, players could advance their professions, and for engineers especially, it would be a revolutionary change.
As for her father, questions had arisen before. Why did other families have both father and mother, yet she had never seen her own father?
Zhu Yuan spoke mysteriously, then tore off a lifelike human skin mask with his right hand. A familiar face appeared before everyone. Xiao Shan and Xie Tian stared in shock at the middle-aged man who had shed the disguise. For a moment, everyone in the room was dumbfounded. Wang Yachao looked at the mysterious man and cursed with a wry smile.
His good reputation was taken from him, his wealth was taken, and he had nothing left. Even Walcott, whom he trusted most, betrayed him. He wanted to seize Tang Ning and turn his fortunes, but that was now impossible.
“Chief Gao, I’d like to use our police station’s military coat as Mr. Nine’s grave shroud. Do you think that’s appropriate?” After the funeral song ended, Xiao Shan’s eyes shone with unwavering determination as he looked at Gao Ming.
It was simply uncanny. Lance imitated the palace lord’s tone, mannerisms, and expressions with about seventy percent similarity. If the palace lord himself were to see this, would he not beat Lance to death?
“Flower God, my old friend, let me grant you a clear death!” The Elder laughed heartily. His features changed—from Xiang Wentian’s appearance back to the Elder’s true self—but only for a fleeting moment.
“So, you’re saying you knew our every move when we came that day?” Taylor stared at Richard in disbelief, unable to comprehend such a notion.
Such was the gulf between the rules of firepower and the laws of nature: one belonged to the mortal kings, the other to those who had transcended mortality.
Li Song had no idea why the energy being hadn’t appeared for some time. Didn’t he find the timing of its disappearance a little suspicious?
But just as I was about to return to town, I found Lei Mingxuan gravely injured and unconscious. At that time, she was covered in wounds and blood. As a child, the sight terrified me. Yet, in the end, I forced myself to overcome my fear and brought her home.
