Chapter 61

Once essence, energy, and spirit reach a peak, one can attempt a breakthrough to condense them into a Golden Dan.

Seeing Jane and her group depart, Lan Xingyu asked Tony curiously, "Tony, when did you become a special consultant for S.H.I.E.L.D.?"

After taking a bath, Emporio Ivankov fell into deep thought holding the Den Den Mushi given to him by Robin.

"Wait, there's no need for all that trouble! I already have the ingredients," Tony said immediately upon seeing that Lan Xingyu was about to rush through the portal.

Like a starving dog spotting two piles of dung on the ground, she wouldn't want to devour two poor wretches like us, would she? House thought.

Riding all the way back to the military camp, Su Ze's emotions finally settled. His tears were not only sparked by the warmth this unfamiliar family had given him, but even more so by the overwhelming wave of envy that gushed forth upon seeing such a happy and complete household.

As a multi-billionaire, Xu Xiaodong could easily afford to hire one or two psionic bodyguards, and they might even be of Silver Seal rank.

In the original plot of One Piece, when Aokiji and Akainu dueled on Punk Hazard, they permanently altered the climate there, leaving half of the island in glaciers and the other half in magma.

The aching dreadnought lizard could no longer care about its rear. Seizing the opportunity, Su Ze prepared to deal it a heavy blow from behind. However, the moment he drew close to its back, the beast's tail lashed out as if it had eyes, striking Su Ze and sending him flying several meters away.

The white trousers he had been wearing were now soaked through with bright red blood, making the sight all the more startling and gruesome.

Excitement, astonishment, stupefaction, and anger—complex and intertwined—all flashed across his face within the span of a mere minute.

"The golden snow lotus is for you to eat; take the white one back to cure someone else's illness." Wulei took hold of Qin Mo's other hand and placed the two lotus petals into his palm.

Being publicly addressed as "hubby" by Ye Xuan in front of a large crowd, Xiaoshi Yao could not help feeling somewhat embarrassed.

On a distant blue planet, there was a coastal city named Yunhai, the southern gateway of China and a mega-sized international metropolis.

He nodded in agreement—though theoretically the system could not see him nod, perhaps due to the thought of approval arising in his mind, such communication faced no obstacles even though he did not speak aloud.

The optical flame of the anti-entropy core suddenly contracted, and flares began to erupt across the previously pure white sphere.

Lydia and Nia sat side by side, Nia holding a tablet in her hand and playing a boring game.

Chen You and Crimson had no choice but to engage the two Mountain Kings in a one-on-one duel, though it was impossible to tell which were illusions and which were the real bodies. Fortunately, the unlucky Blood Clan arcane swordsman was already in an extremely weakened state and unable to participate in the battle.

Before parting, Ye Xuan informed Xiaoshi Yao and the others of his itinerary and then set off with his people for Europe.

Before the servants even understood what was happening, they were given a severe beating, staring at her in terror one by one.

"We had previously tried every possible method without finding a clue, which is why we delayed," the Sixth Grandpa sighed. "Only just now did we learn from other monsters that the Dragon God's emissary has consumed the flesh of the thousand-year-old Golden Old Tai Sui. If we drag this out any further, we might not even make it through this final day."

There was some truth to that statement. I had heard of Young Master Liang back during my time in Supreme God, and I had always hoped to have a proper match with him. His character was trustworthy enough, but after Ice Feather, I had no idea why he chose to join a trash guild like Lion City.

Li Gui had also been driven out only after a thorough beating by Su Hong. Pondering for a moment, he hurried toward the backyard anyway.

After seeing off Chu Mofan and the others, the Nan family also returned inside. Nan Feng had previously been troubled over Luo Yang's affair, but Chu Mofan's words just now forced him to start speculating.

"I'll kick you to death." Hu Qing'er gave her hips a slight sway. If there were outsiders present, her fox tail would surely have popped right out.

"Zi'ao, I didn't kill him. Believe me, it really wasn't me," Su Ruyi said, crying as she looked at Yun Zi'ao. She was utterly bewildered by this sudden turn of events.

Who said three cobblers can definitely surpass Zhuge Liang? I feel like the three of us losers combined still had minds simple to a terrifying degree, thinking that escaping this city would solve everything, while forgetting that we could never escape the already cast net.

"The hell I believe your ghost roars! What time is it and you're still joking." Glancing at him reproachfully with a spoiled pout, Luo Yang suddenly let her shoulders drop limply and sat down right where she was.

Fu Hongxue let out a long breath, slowly stood up, and watched as a donkey walked up the ridge.

"Yet it was because of her that all of this came to pass prematurely. If the Emperor had not tried to save her this time, how would he have courted such danger? Do not speak up for her; if this lingering anger in my heart is not appeased by punishing her, I will never let it go," the Empress Dowager said firmly.

Although this underlying implication was not explicitly stated in the editor's reply, Guan Xiaojun had already guessed it.

The same was true for Yue Hanyuan. She raised her gaze toward Fairy Lingyue, a flicker of doubt passing across her cold cheeks, making her intent perfectly clear.

This catch-all, unexpected scene left even the General dumbfounded. Not just him, but the vast majority of the audience was completely baffled.

As for those on the sea, the Chinese navy had also done their utmost, nearly sacrificing the entire naval force they had worked so hard to build.

If the news leads everyone onto a path of light, public opinion can certainly drag people into the abyss. As the saying goes, a kind word warms three winter months, while a harsh word hurts in June. People in the same profession, how could things be so chillingly indifferent?

The front gate had also collapsed inward, and coffins were stacked in the courtyard. The yard was not large, so the coffins could only be piled one on top of another.

An object of awe and reverence cannot rely merely on approachability and down-to-earth behavior to be deemed correct. Given Cai Xu's background, he was already trending toward deification and could never adopt a populist route; majesty and imposing aura were what he had to constantly maintain and uphold.

"I have already prepared the helicopters for you, four in total. See if you need anything else?" said the President of the Republic of GH, glancing to his left. Over on the lawn a few hundred meters away from the crowd, four Ka-32 military transport helicopters sat quietly.
