Chapter 48

She was surrounded by pristine cleanliness; light and darkness could not coexist. Such a body of pure light was the ultimate nemesis of dark energy.

"When you return, come to my house to propose marriage," Tang Ning said in a voice so soft that it would have been drowned out by the rain had one not listened closely.

Long before nine o'clock, practically all the sightseers who had come to the island nation to watch the duel had gathered at the summit of Mount Fuji.

Wu Junyu smiled and nodded, saying, "Take a look at this egg-shaped basin and see if you can figure out its mechanism." As he spoke, he gestured toward a potted plant nearby.

Therefore, this area still looked rather deserted, yet it was fully equipped with all kinds of facilities. There were hotels and places to eat, and everything looked brand new. The buildings did not appear aged at all; all in all, it gave Chen Tian's team a rather good first impression.

In this regard, Tang Ning and he were of the same kind—devoid of flashy, complicated moves, focusing instead on a single, decisive hit.

Leng Hechuan handed the child to Lin Wan'er, but the moment the baby was in Lin Wan'er's arms, it began to cry again.

The others were easy enough to handle, but a Chinese-Indonesian mage named Sha Hongfei posed a difficult problem for Chen Langping. Skilled in dark arts, Sha Hongfei was the strongest among the delegation from Indonesia.

His fiancée understood nothing at all and could barely speak coherently, yet a pair of feline eyes made her look strikingly vibrant and piercing.

"It's just that they have a few high-tier ability-domain experts backing them up. In this regard, the Murong family cannot compare to the Ling family. The Murong family is unwilling to spend money—tell me, why would any super-tier ability-domain expert risk their lives for them?" Mo Yuqi remarked.

The seedlings went through various growth stages, and testing began on their growth under low-temperature climatic environments. Because of this, Mo Youdong took up long-term residence in the newly built Sangjiawu Village, occasionally chatting idly about Lin Xueqin.

"A-xiang, don't worry. Mother's body isn't as delicate as all that. What is weather like this? In the old days when Mother used to do all sorts of odd jobs, didn't I still work through the scorching days of midsummer and the freezing depths of winter?" Though she spoke lightly, her body trembled slightly in the biting wind.

Researcher Ke asked if they had stopped over in Xi'an, and then went on to say that a high school classmate of his was on the archaeological team there. Hearing the news passed along by his classmate yesterday, another Tang Dynasty tomb had been discovered, and due to an obvious plunder hole, rescue excavations had already begun.

The mystery that had already been unraveled was the origin of the name "Ghost Realm." Years ago, when the first High Priest arrived here, everything in the darkness was so eerie, accompanied by sounds claiming to be the voices of wandering spirits. Naturally, calling this place the "Ghost Realm" could not have been more fitting.

Han Gang reached the ball first, but due to Van Nistelrooy's interference, he failed to clear it far. The second ball was claimed by Robben, and as his shot was somewhat rushed, Zheng Bin managed to deflect it away with his shoulder.

"It was that silly girl who lied to you." Whenever Uncle Gui mentioned Dai Su'er, he always smiled with exceptional fondness.

At three-thirty in the afternoon, Department Head Zhang and the president of the People's Hospital escorted Director Liu and his group to the plane. Only after watching the aircraft take off did they get back into a car and head toward the urban area of Guangzhou.

"Remember, if anyone comes looking for me... if there's anything else, I'll be back," Wu Kai said as he walked toward the door of the room.

However, this fatal weakness was fortuitously compensated for by a twist of fate involving Doro. The ring given to Doro by Ronio was capable of absorbing any fire-based damage, thereby protecting Doro's mist-transformed body thoroughly.

Chu Jin sat behind his desk, listening to the murmurs of those two, the corners of his mouth curving upward in a smile that he simply could not flatten.

The smile on Marquis Yongping's wife froze. Stiffening her neck, she cast an unsightly look toward Marquis Yongping beside her. Seeing his face as green as if he had just swallowed a basket of raw greens, she instantly flew into a rage from embarrassment.

The Tao Jingqi before them wore dated, old-fashioned clothing that could not conceal her stunning beauty, and her gaze carried an oppressive, commanding presence.

"All right, there's still time anyway. In case they really encounter something tricky, we can still go help out." Having reached a consensus, the group prepared to set off.

Previously in H City, he could simply take a cold shower. But now that Mother Qiao and the others were staying here, if he were to go take a bath in the middle of the night, it might easily lead to misunderstandings.

After arriving for work at the health center, Tao Jingqi stepped through the door only to discover that the doctor sitting at the simple three-drawer desk was the so-called Dr. Hao who had examined Yaya last time.

Whenever she thought about having a kitchen built right next to the outhouse, she could not help feeling a sense of disgust. Why were these city people so unhygienic?

"This is a member of my Ye family. If you want this pot of meat, you can have it, but I must take the person!" Shi Tianzong declared, his attitude so unyielding that it left no room for Cai Yangde to refute.

Xie Jingyi strode forward and lightly knocked on the door of the candle shop situated directly opposite the coffin store.

The duel between the two sides would not end simply because this place collapsed. Because the commotion was too great, everyone who had been gathered there partying and reveling came rushing over at full speed.

The terrain in this vicinity was relatively gentle and open, with numerous earthen mounds, making it well-suited for cavalry maneuvers.

At the same time, a powerful force spread outward from the nine heavens, and a tall, slender figure quietly materialized amidst the clouds. He looked like a deity of the celestial realms—ethereal and untainted by mortal dust, yet carrying an innate, effortless arrogance. Unsurpassably handsome, he looked unlike any mortal being.

Sikong Xi's words struck like a physical blow, laden with an overwhelmingly majestic and oppressive aura.

At this thought, Lu Shan's expression suddenly shifted. He looked around, only to discover that the mist inside the tomb had long since dissipated.
