Minghao City, inside the City Lord’s mansion.
In a secret chamber, the young master of the City Lord’s mansion, Bai Yichen, sat cross-legged with a long sword resting across his knees. His eyes were closed, as if he were in deep contemplation, and a faint golden glow flickered at the center of his forehead, mysterious and brilliant.
Suddenly, a crazed, elderly voice echoed through his mind via a transmission talisman:
"Old Southern King’s body has been taken ove...

The old Southern King's eyes flickered, then he burst into laughter:
"Hahaha, of course I remember! It was a white dog I rescued from the roadside. It was almost frozen to death in the snow when I found it."
"Hmm!" Qin Chuan's eyes lit up as if he saw a glimmer of hope and continued to ask, "Then, do you remember how big the dog was?"
The old Southern King scratched his head, unsure, and replied, "That dog wasn’t very big, probably because it had been a stray for so...

"What?!?"
Qin Chuan's hand trembled as he held the letter, feeling as though he'd just been struck by a bolt of lightning. He stood frozen in place.
The Southern King's father didn’t die?
If the real Southern King has shown up, then all the years of him pretending to be the old Southern King’s "long-lost friend" would be ruthlessly exposed.
"No, I absolutely cannot let this be revealed!"
His face grew resolute as he clenched his fist, and the letter di...

“Huh? Is this Coiling Dragon?” Vicky’s beautiful eyes lit up as she stared at McCoff, her expression filled with both surprise and a hint of shyness. She wondered how McCoff had discovered her love for novels. In the past, only Wardelger and Milton knew about her secret passion for reading, and she hadn’t shared it with anyone else.
Especially in the past two days, as Coiling Dragon became wildly popular across the city, Vicky had felt a strong urge...

Riley had always harbored concerns in his heart. Even though his father was a fifth-level magus, the northern stretch of the Darkwing Eagle branch connected to the White Rat and Thunder Bear branches, leaving the possibility of even stronger magical beasts wandering into their territory.
Although this hadn't happened yet, the mere possibility meant the risk would continue to accumulate. If such a threat ever manifested, it would be a tremendous shock to the entire territory.

After exchanging a few brief words, Britney excused herself, citing the pressing matters of relocating the trading company. Rhett didn't try to keep her, and after seeing her off at the castle gates, he returned to his room.
Sitting on the edge of the bed, Rhett closed his eyes and began to feel the world around him. It was no longer shrouded in darkness. As he mobilized his spiritual power, an overwhelming flood of earth elements surged around him like waves of yellow sand, risi...

At this time, Dark Eagle City was not yet prosperous, and the streets were sparsely populated. However, Carlton's words still caught the attention of some nearby people, who curiously stared at Lawrence with great envy.
Those whose strength was not high enough couldn't discern Lawrence's true abilities but envied him for earning the favor of the president of the Dauton Chamber of Commerce. Meanwhile, a few knights at or above the second level flashed a hint of jealousy in ...

Henck frowned as he looked at Felix. “Are you sure about this information? Is the remote southwestern border really worth the attention of a Saint-level expert?”
Felix shrugged. “Who knows? I only heard it from someone else. Maybe they’re just playing on the exact kind of doubt you’re expressing.”
Rhett furrowed his brows. This rumor had even spread to the capital? That was unexpected.
He recalled that Commander Avalan of the Canyon Defense Line had mentio...

Under the sunlight, the emerald green grapes looked incredibly tempting.
Beneath the grape trellis stood a set of wooden tables and chairs that were clearly crafted by Old Man Lin. On the table was a dish so tantalizing that just a glance could make anyone's mouth water.
Beside the grape trellis hung a large wooden sign with the words: "Lingxian Dining Seat."
Below the large sign was a smaller wooden sign, indicating the price: one hundred taels of silver. Next to it ...

However, there weren't enough people in Shushui Village to handle all the work, so people from nearby villages also came over to help. This way, the surrounding villages also made a bit of extra money.

But after thinking it over, Liu Chun realized that his understanding had already been turned upside down when he first saw this sect’s cultivation method, which didn’t require spiritual roots. If that was possible, what else could surprise him?

The man in the purple robe fumed with rage, his chest heaving with anger as he stared at the blocked entrance of the cave. Someone had discovered his long-hidden spirit stone mine and not only emptied it but also sealed it off with rocks!
His fury was like a fire burning within him, threatening to burst forth at any moment.
He swore to find the culprits who had stolen his spirit stones. He would track them down, retrieve his mine, and obliterate ...

The 300,000-strong Blood Battle unit did not return to the Huaxia Empire but sat quietly in an open area within the city, still emanating that crimson aura.
The power of Bloodlust could last for a full ten days. After ten days, the Bloodlust effect would dissipate.
However, if the Blood Battle unit managed to kill even one enemy within those ten days, the Bloodlust effect would be renewed for another ten days at full intensity!

At this point, Liu Biao couldn't even focus his main efforts on reclaiming Jingzhou. Internally, the Cai family was discontent due to the repeated cuts to the navy caused by financial shortages. Externally, the Wuxi barbarians were occasionally raiding, leaving him unable to launch a counterattack.

At this point, Jia Xu himself felt that this whole situation was a bit far-fetched. If Chen Xi and Liu Bei could truly gain the recognition of Cao Cao’s subordinates, then what was the point of continuing this war? Just one declaration would be enough to end it. Moreover, Chen Xi mentioned that the smaller jade disc's radiance was increasing quickly. Could it be that Cao Cao’s camp recognizes Liu Bei and Chen Xi more than the people of Taishan?

Ju Yi dodged the attacks from the Trap Formation soldiers. He had figured out how to kill them, but he couldn't help but ask himself, "Is it worth it?"
Using his army's soul to counteract the opponent's, Ju Yi realized that it wouldn't necessarily guarantee victory. The previous clash made him aware that when he used this method to kill the enemy, the soul's will didn't dissipate but was directly canceled out.

Unlike Hou Cheng and Wei Xu, who were considered weak among Lü Bu's Eight Tiger Generals, Hao Meng was a true fierce warrior under Lü Bu's command.
