Chongqing Express

Baili Hongzhe pulled the third sister into his arms, anxiously taking out a handkerchief to wipe away the scarlet blood on her neck, which looked exceptionally stark and conspicuous against the backdrop of winter.

I began calling out to Tongtong again, knowing she was right outside, residing within the pearl in my body's pocket; she was so close that she surely must hear me. But I was plunged into despair as Tongtong offered no response. I then started shouting for Third Uncle-Grandfather's master, but there was still no reply.

After helping Wu Ling'er onto the bed, Chen Ruxing felt a throbbing pain in the wound on his chest. It must have been because he had moved too abruptly earlier, aggravating the injury. Fortunately, the wound had not split open, likely due to some special method Wu Ling'er had used.

However, while there are guards against thieves, there is no way to be on guard against them forever. Continuously maintaining such surveillance was simply not a sustainable solution; everyone is bound to doze off eventually, and there was always the risk of someone seizing the opportunity to stir up trouble once more. Everyone understood this reasoning, and Pei Xin'er could not help but redden her eyes.

"Did that young lady not step forward to protect Master Xiao?" Ling Wushuang asked with a frown after hearing Qingying's account.

"Sigh, forget it!" Long Youran said with a sigh, deciding to let it go for now; if anything truly happened, it would be impossible to conceal anyway.

The fake Anping Hexuan—the person who had once harmed Mu Wanfeng—was firmly and bitterly remembered by Murong Ziyan in his heart.

Listening to this, a smile touched the corners of Shen Yuezhen's lips. She picked up her teacup, took a gentle sip, and savored the flavor carefully.

As for Wei Mingjie, he wished he could find a crack in the ground to crawl into, numerous dark lines sliding down his temples as he cursed Jiang Yingshi for being an idiot.

At this moment, Pei Xin'er was inside the room. After listening to Rui Niang's retelling, a half-smile appeared on her face.

When the other party started the phone call, they had already informed Chen Xi of the private room number. The two of them went straight to it, and upon entering, they saw two men sitting inside.

Once the Gate of the Fire Realm opened, Jun Ziyang could see the Fire Realm, and across this barren desert grew many different types of Fire Realm grains.

A Qi recalled the chat history. Da Da had set his moments to be visible only to friends for the past three days, so his understanding of this Da Da could only come from those brief chat logs.

That is to say, that company had already launched its own software application independently, using cash campaigns to frantically attract fans everywhere in an attempt to seize the fan market preemptively.

"Go home?! You slut, do you still think that place is your home?!" Qianye's face turned beet red with fury, and he raised his hand and swung it towards me.

Platoon Leader Wang's companion Lao Ding, along with the excavator and its driver Huang Aman, vanished in the blink of an eye.

Before I could react, Mu Jingchen walked up to me with a cold expression and pulled me up.

Seeing that Shen Yafei was not in the outer room, he searched the inner room, but still failed to find the person he was looking for. Consequently, he turned back and opened the bedroom door.

Tang Yan had almost slaughtered everyone on the scene who had ties to Tian Hu—regardless of whether they were close confidants or dependents.

At this moment, a dozen Miao men had climbed to the peak, surrounding me, and a leader reached out demanding that I hand over my phone.

I stared at him in astonishment, my heart growing colder by the second. Was he trying to tell me that he lacked the ability to support an elderly woman like my grandmother, and that this paltry sum represented the entirety of his goodwill? I hadn't brought Grandmother to see him for money, but for familial affection, yet they always worried we were trying to extort them. This mindset was truly chilling.

This came as a delightful surprise to me. Spiritual perception is a marvelous asset; one doesn't even need to actively deploy it, as it will naturally offer warnings about impending dangers and other events.

Li Yang had already lifted the talisman paper with a peach wood sword. It looked like the ritual was nearing its conclusion, and the pace was winding down. I could finally set my mind at ease, knowing nothing more could possibly go wrong.

After rushing into the room and surveying the various items I had piled up—tables, benches, and the like—it suddenly dawned on me. The things I had tested were merely everyday household goods; could those beings possibly fear them? That was utterly impossible. I needed to find something associated with the battlefield; perhaps that was what they truly feared.

The first time he tracked down the hospital where her grandmother was hospitalized, it took him nearly a whole day because he had to ask for directions all along the way.

Du Ruo dreaded such playful remarks as they left her at a loss for how to respond. Unwilling to rebuff Madam Chen's enthusiasm, she could only offer a polite smile.

Given her candid honesty, Qin Keren stopped beating around the bush. She took a stack of photographs from her bag and handed them to Tian Xin.

Though Zhuang Xiaoting had been secretly watching Hanchuan for a long time, Hanchuan had been so utterly absorbed in his painting that he hadn't noticed her staring blankly at him for quite a while.

Du Ruo thanked Lu Shi and entered the room, sitting there in a daze, uncertain whether she should leave with her senior martial brother or remain at the Lu residence.

Feeling somewhat depressed by Tian Xin's attitude, Yu Xiubai was nevertheless the first to turn around and open the front passenger door for her.

The moment the four of them landed, an even brighter golden light swooped down like lightning. Zhong Chen gave a soft cry and abruptly darted behind Yue Chen, who tightly gripped a talisman and stared intently at the incoming entity.

Xu Jiangnan wore a look of utter disbelief. He hadn't expected that his heartfelt words would be met with such complete distrust by the latter. Unwilling to say anything more, he gloomily shut his mouth, pulled his sun-shielding and wind-blocking bamboo hat down lower, and focused solely on the journey ahead.

Though Yang You's words were spoken in a quiet voice, having attained the title of the Rookie King, he was the center of attention, and everyone was sizing him up.

As soon as the Lü Bu army arrived in Anding, Administrator Zhou Shenglie sent an urgent report: Administrator Fu Gan of Beidi was in critical danger; the Southern Huns had breached the northern defense line, and the local Hu cavalry were insufficient to resist them, with countless Hu soldiers defecting on the battlefield.

"Aren't you afraid I'll shoot you from afar?" Mingxian said with a trace of malice, having completely calmed down.
