Volume 1, Chapter 50: Once You've Tasted It, There Will Be No Next Time

Western Depot, Superintendent's courtyard.

The rain beat against the plantain leaves incessantly, and the sound of water trickling never stopped.

At this moment, Cao Mo had no idea that he had been firmly targeted by Grand Princess Xiao Luan.

Moreover, the top rank on the Heaven's Pride List published by the Astrological Bureau that should rightfully have belonged to him was instead pushed down to the tenth spot by the Master of the Bureau under the pretext of cherishing talent.

Of course, even if he knew, Cao Mo wouldn't care in the least.

When an army comes, block it with water; when a general comes, stop him with earth.

Previously, Gaia's consciousness was shattered by a mysterious spirit, and the vast majority of its power was devoured by the entity. Chu Nan had only digested a tiny fraction of it, which helped him break through to become a half-step sage.

Seeing Naji and Zhuang Jing make their moves, the clansmen behind them suddenly shuddered as well, and one after another, they stepped forward through the passage.

As for Ning Yi himself, he was instead pushed backward in a somersault by the force of its fan-like sweep, tumbling back in reverse.

After a week of trench warfare, Jiao Erxiang had grown somewhat numb. Sometimes, shells would land directly into the trench bunkers, and the casualties of an entire squad or platoon of officers and soldiers were nothing out of the ordinary. Helpless against fate, they could only leave everything to the whims of heaven.

Even amidst such a busy schedule, Mu Yuchen still managed to carve out time every day to ponder the second picture he had foreseen in the mist of time—a frail boy living in a cupboard, wearing round-rimmed glasses and bearing a lightning-bolt scar on his forehead.

Even after countless long years of Dao cultivation, according to deductions, it was utterly impossible to achieve immortality in such an era.

One hundred yellow divine dragons appeared simultaneously, with the Yellow Emperor driving the dragons through the heavens. In ancient times, this move had shaken an entire era. Although the Yellow Emperor at this moment was only in the late stage of the "Master Realm," he had already given this technique its embryonic form, and its might was already incalculable.

Just as Lin Feifan breathed a sigh of relief, Ning Yi unexpectedly popped up from behind him, asking with a face full of curiosity.

Afterward, as if by tacit understanding, Wansheng walked into the press conference venue and immediately became its central figure. The media's enthusiasm was even more fervent than it had been toward Mourinho just moments before, simply because Manchester City was the victor today.

Lukas sighed, helplessly issuing the order to lift the alert, while General Yankel leisurely strolled down to the restaurant on the first floor to enjoy his breakfast.

In the days that followed, Gong Yixuan kept urging them to hurry on their journey, and finally they crossed the national border, not far from the Holy Dynasty.

In every family, the elders tend to dower their affection downward. In fact, Old Liu had already heard the name Ye Xuan from Old Fang. The old man did not know the specific details, but upon leaving, Old Fang had made a request of this old chess-playing friend, hoping that Ye Xuan could take over his mantle in the future and that his old friend would lend a helping hand.

Ever since Fu Yunxi's departure, Qin Mingzhu's heart had been plagued by lingering unease. Upon suddenly hearing that the Emperor had returned to the palace, a trace of joy welled up within her, and she hurriedly washed and dressed to go and welcome him.

At the threshold of life and death, a flash of inspiration struck Fu Yunxi's mind, and she began to move her hands and feet before struggling to rise.

A Spider King that had reached the Legendary Realm was indeed a true master! Tang Haodong felt that even if he and Xiao Qinghu joined forces, it would be difficult for them to injure the Spider King, let alone keep him behind.

"Isn't it a mountain?" Young Master Tantai expressed his confusion. He had instructed Nika to find a quiet and secluded famous mountain with few people for use, but he hadn't expected that Chongqing actually had a mountain named Mingshan. Was there something wrong with this mountain?

Madam Lu didn't care much about Bai Shizu's anger. Anyway, Bai Shizu was soft-hearted and easily cajoled; right now, the most important thing was to have Zhu Changrong spill out Bai Mujin's scandalous little secrets, which was the proper course of action.

"Jin'er, you should go. Mother has us here, so you needn't worry. Chen'er's side is what matters most!" Lu Zhaoran advised with great consideration.

The Ice Source Dragons were entirely composed of various fire-type monsters such as fire lizards, fire skeletons, fire giants, and fire-eyed imps.

Knowing that this Xiao Le was a scoundrel whose foul mouth could never utter anything decent, Long Yiyi slammed her foot down on the accelerator the moment he vulgarly blurted out the word "chrysanthemum," surging forward with increased horsepower. Before he could finish the final word "tremor," the Audi had already sped away, leaving the dust far behind.
