Chapter 567
“May the Buddha bless me. Once I achieve my goals, I’ll have my adoptive father appoint me as the National Master, and I’ll accumulate merits for you every day.”

In a distant place, lowly villages lay scattered, smoke rising gently from their chimneys, and a wave of sorrow washed over my heart once more.
Lu Yang, despite his injuries, exchanged blood with his opponent, paying the price with bruised brow and battered belly.
From the brief skirmish, it was clear that the human swordsman possessed combat skills not much inferior to those of Qian Sha, but alas, the hastily assembled swordsman lacked armor and was far from being in peak condition, leaving him to swallow his bitterness.
Yet, the fight must go on. After all, Dao had finally sealed Zhu Jiu Yin, raising the reputation of humanity; there was no way he could fall here.
“After that, we went back once, only to find you all missing. Upon closer inspection, we discovered that hidden passage,” Xu Anran explained.
It didn’t actually hurt; it was just too intimate. She had never interacted closely with other males, and she found herself unaccustomed to such affectionate gestures.
Otherwise, how could Wang Dalei, who had survived the brutal battlefield, repeatedly find himself at a disadvantage?
“Our vehicle is over there; everyone, follow me.” Li Zhiyu led the way, with the others closely trailing behind him.
None of those present were hunters, nor did they have the habit of wandering in the mountains, so they naturally couldn’t find any caves right away.
Sangzi clicked his tongue, pinched his nose, and in the next moment, he dashed through the door, flipping into the courtyard.
Gu Zexi’s expression darkened; he didn’t even give her a chance to explain before turning and leaving the scene, leaving a mess for his parents to deal with.
He was the type who only responded to gentle persuasion. As long as you catered to his temperament and sweet-talked him a bit, any storm could be calmed.
But Ye Bing’s total worth was only 8 points, so the system completely ignored her.
Seeing one of their own missing, the axolotl wanted to make a run for it, planning to discuss with Liu Changjiang whether they should just end today’s competition and shake hands in peace.
After all, in the past, Huo Shengtian had often coaxed her like this, and in the end, things would still proceed as they should.
They knew this phrase; students from Fengcheng Racing Academy occasionally used it, and Xia Zhi had said it before.
The Xiongwei Camp was filled with tall warriors, all over 1.8 meters, while the people from Wodao were generally around 1.5 to 1.6 meters tall. The difference in physical prowess was not trivial.
You’d understand if you experienced it firsthand; that sour feeling was something you’d never want to encounter again in this lifetime.
Standing on the city wall, the previously faint howls of wolves became clearer, as if the entire ancient castle had been surrounded.
Under the blazing sun and the shadowy moon, the frantic movements seemed to possess the art of transformation, splitting into two, then four, mingling with the myriad starlight sword formations, overwhelming in their descent.
A barely perceptible sound of wind rushed closer, a thread of energy as fine as a hair and as tough as a steel needle struck the back of his head with incredible speed, causing him to forget his unspoken feelings in an instant. There was no time to dodge; he could only instinctively channel his protective energy to withstand it.
Xingzi cast a complex glance at Yang Tian, silently sighing, knowing that the Jiu Xuan Sect had completely lost this genius.
Mei Dongze and Lu Mingyue noticed Fang Mingyuan’s signaling glance, feeling somewhat puzzled, but they still held their tongues.
“Not bad, not bad. Commander Xuan has nearly reached the pinnacle of culinary arts,” Ling Shang praised.
Cao Yinglong’s childishness was fading, and his youthful face was filled with a complex expression of reverence and trepidation as he faced his strict teacher, appearing as if he were being corrected on the spot, fidgeting restlessly.

**Chapter 648: What Should Little Li Do If He Needs to Use the Bathroom?**
“Ugh... you’re out of money for drinks again?”
“Hey, hey, still thinking about the royal tomb, using Xiao Mo as an excuse to fool us.”
“Little Li is said to be thriving in Tianren City, singing little tunes and climbing the ranks. What could possibly be wrong?”
“Yeah, she’s definitely just messing with us, talking about hot pot, hot pot…”
Knowing the nature of Shang Wu, the elders quickly regained their composure after their initial shock.
They all started eating hot pot as if nothing had happened.
Splash!
In Lin Ping’s eyes, he was nothing, yet he was actually the older brother of Huang Wangsong, a figure who could be called “grandfather” in Jinghai City.
Gu Bo and Lord Qi hadn’t changed in appearance; only their status had shifted. No one would have guessed that this person was once so young, resembling Lord Qi in his youth.
The bride’s sobs grew louder, intermittent, repeating some content in a murmuring tone.
Bai Ke’er and Zhi Xiao, along with Da Hei, arrived in New Jersey. After a few days of investigation, they finally managed to interview a scientist, who happened to be one of Kedia’s students.
It was precisely for this reason that Nero estimated he would have to stay in this world for a while.
After all, with his loved ones in someone else’s hands, he could only bow his head, even though he felt unwilling inside.
However, what Nero wanted to do now was to stir up trouble, to make a big scene, so that everyone in the world would know that an alien force had invaded Earth.
He sent someone to help the pain-stricken Li Xueyang, while Wang Quanfugui opened the door of his sports car and strapped Li Xueyang into the passenger seat.
The front hall of the house wasn’t very large, with entrances on both sides leading to different areas, and a wooden staircase in front leading to the second floor.
The Roman Catholic Church certainly didn’t want them to unify, as an overly powerful nation would inevitably overshadow the Church’s influence. They had done quite a bit of negative work behind the scenes, and in the end, the Germans even grew to hate the Church, deciding to establish their own church with “autonomous church affairs.”
After the doctor left the ward, Auntie turned to look at Tian Tian, who lay motionless on the hospital bed, feeling at a loss.
I really once thought that if it weren’t for that archaeological dig, perhaps I wouldn’t be like this. I was truly afraid that leaving this time would mean forever for my parents.
If I were to leave resolutely now, it would seem a bit inhumane. So why not give him a chance, a bit of confidence? Besides, my own matters aren’t urgent; a little delay wouldn’t hurt.
After reading the brief message twice, Kailong turned to his trusted aide and said meaningfully.
Seeing her defiant expression, Jiao Meier immediately summoned another bolt of lightning, but this time it was dodged. The giant snake had already evaded as soon as it saw her move. Despite its massive size, it was still agile, and lightning couldn’t bend to pursue.
Tian Xiao said nothing, leaning into the embrace he longed for, feeling Su Nan’s warm breath, lost in bliss.
However, after he said that, some “nice guys” with soft backs who didn’t want to offend either side thought, “The official can’t be contradicted, and we can’t offend the Quanzhen Sect…” The fence-sitters hesitated, knowing that the Quanzhen Sect’s wrath was not to be trifled with.
At this point, Chu Lian was completely startled awake, looking around in confusion, only to realize she was still in the carriage.
“I don’t know; maybe something’s going on. They should be back after it’s over.” Lin Mu Jie looked down at Deng Zhengguang, hesitating whether to wake him now. If they took too long, it would be bad if someone found out.
Once everything was settled, Fang Yi returned to his carefree demeanor, throwing an arm around his shoulder: “Hey, you think it’s that easy to con money out of Su City?”
“I’m here to tell you that I’ve given up on Fang Yu, not because he’s incapable, but because he doesn’t love me. I, Xu Piao, have someone else pursuing me.” After saying this, Xu Piao placed her things down and turned to leave.

**Chapter 649: The Dragon and Phoenix Primordial Spirit Pill!**
In the Eastern Palace.
“Your Highness, I have conveyed the Emperor’s wishes. Please set off soon.” The eunuch in purple robes bowed respectfully.
Jiang Yu’s eyelids twitched as he asked, “What other edicts has Father issued?”
“Your Highness, I think it’s best if you don’t concern yourself too much with state affairs right now…”
The purple-robed eunuch intended to refuse, but upon meeting Jiang Yu’s gaze, he sighed.
Even if he didn’t say it, as the Crown Prince, he could learn from other sources, after all, the Emperor’s edicts would also be announced in the court.
Ye Wushuang coldly exhaled, stepping forward, and with the other hand, unleashed a powerful strike, golden true essence pouring forth like a vast ocean, accompanied by a dragon’s roar.
“It’s fine, it’s fine. If we really can’t win, just throw A Miao to them,” Ye Lei said with a mischievous grin.
The first two could help him escape this crisis, while the third would elevate his strength to a new level.
“Only two of the Twelve Ancestor Witches came? What about the other ten?” When he heard the news from the Yin Shang Immortal Kingdom, Yuan Shi Tian Zun could no longer contain himself.
“I will not let you go!” Guang Chengzi shouted, intending to self-destruct and perish alongside Di Jiang.
Of course, the so-called benefits meant that the battle god energy within him was increasing, and the collected Battle God Heavenly Crystals were also growing in number.
“Everyone, pay attention, stay in sync, and whatever you do, don’t get separated,” Xiao Yunshan lowered his voice, reminding everyone.
