Ao Xi would lead the charge! He raised his green riot shotgun and fired a tear gas canister; the officers beside him followed suit, launching several more. These rounds used a special chemical agent several times more irritating than pepper spray. Once a few canisters landed, the area became impossible to inhabit. The rioters fought desperately, managing to topple the statue before fleeing. A few who ran too slowly were seized by the police and pummeled with batons.

Climbing back up wouldn't be easy; after all, Qin Huairu was no pushover. Once you got entangled with her, separating would surely cost you a layer of skin—just look at what happened to Shazhu in the original story.

The attacking monster was killed instantly, and flames rose at the edge of the arena, enclosing the mountain-like pressure within. Tal felt no joy, merely furrowing its brow. The body was only temporary, and it cared little whether this material form was aesthetically pleasing, so it remained indifferent to the praise.

Their equipment was far from refined. Many wore blood-stained, hole-ridden old armor stripped from Saracens. Only a few among them were knights; most were landless peasants, mere wanderers.

Chu Zhen frowned again. Those two breakfasts had cost him two dollars and fifty cents, leaving him strapped for cash, and now his situation was even worse.

Recalling those events, Baishi calmed down. He was one hundred percent certain that Jing had intentionally made the sound of water to make him overthink, only to be hiding on the other end of the phone, secretly giggling.

Qin Zheng had specifically tested into Beijing No. 2 High School to avoid Zhang Chuang, but who could have guessed that Zhang Chuang would follow her there as well?

The survivors were few. When the Irish gang gunmen attacked, they were prepared and outnumbered Zhou William's group by nearly three times. Aside from Zhou Hu, who had gone to seek reinforcements, only Song Changxing and Zhou William remained, both of them covered in wounds, having been shot in their arms and legs.

Two months of high-intensity training had even weeded out those whose physical condition was not up to the task.

Seeing the looks of defiance and disbelief on everyone's faces, Gao Jianwu pointed to the path they had just traversed and asked.

The tales of mythology were too ethereal; one could not use a myth as a standard for judging right from wrong. But under the current circumstances, Tian Wu bore him no ill will, allowing Jiang Ming's tense heart to finally relax.

He was not wrong, and neither was she. She had gone to great lengths to integrate into their family, and he had tried to accept her, leaving Pan Rui caught in the middle, torn between them.

The arena match was about to begin. The Tianlin team adjusted their lineup, sending Ye Weiyang out to test the waters, while the other two remained the same.

"Very well, I shall follow Master's arrangements entirely!" Yang Yakai did not offer a single word of rebuttal, appearing perfectly obedient and compliant.

When the crowd-control effects on both sides dissipated, Ling Feng's innate skill faded simultaneously. Jie Yan, who had previously matched Ling Feng in health points, now found himself at a disadvantage. Jie Yan retreated hastily, putting a great distance between them, desperate to avoid being caught and finished off in a single combo by Ling Feng.

With every insult, Xia Zhi's shoulders shrank another inch. By the time He Yan finished berating her, she could barely find her own chin.

The problem was that Father Bao had already squandered the ancestral estate. Now, the fields, manors, and shops belonging to the Bao family had all been acquired by the Bao brothers themselves. To expect them to divide their assets with a half-brother—they were no saints, and they simply could not do it.

"If the Candidate and the Mountain Lord suspect that I am in league with Huang Ban, you may rest easy. Huang Ban and I share the blood feud of a murdered mother and father; we could never be allies. I survived only by luck; because Huang Ban was injured and unable to test his concoctions, he imprisoned me and forced me to serve as a guinea pig for the pills he refined."

"Did you actually anticipate his entire plan?" Watching the tide of battle turn in an instant, Zhu Wang stared at Jiuyue Yi, asking in utter disbelief.
