Chapter 37: The Imperial Arena Team Concedes!

If Xiao Wu had still been tethered by Tang San’s Blue Silver Grass at that moment, perhaps he could have pulled her back. But now, suspended in mid-air, she had nothing left to rely on.

Tang Xi knew very well that the Black Tortoise Turtle Soul Master’s "Turtle Shell Shatter" was a rare and highly effective area-of-effect attack.

The brothers’ shells each shattered into thirty-two fragments, spinning violently within a ten-square-meter radius around their bodies. The piercing whistle of the wind shattered by the fragments already dominated the area within the reach of their shells.

"You are too kind, Uncle Ye." Xu Shiyun tucked a strand of hair behind her ear with a charming smile. She then looked toward Daddy Ye, but unfortunately, he merely glanced at her without offering any praise. Xu Shiyun looked somewhat disappointed, though she dared not say anything and hurriedly ushered them all inside.

In truth, if Xu Ying had saved every penny of the money Tao Xiu had previously brought home, it would have amounted to at least tens of thousands of yuan. However, his mother and Tao Bin refused to spend a single cent of his money, preferring instead to toil away at backbreaking work.

Hong Lian thought to herself, "The power I serve is naturally the Galactic Federation established by the Pangu Clan, led by the eleven Great Elders."

She watched Andy’s dagger shift back and forth, her eyes following its movement, as did her body—as if she were under a spell.

Although Xia Qingfeng did not yet understand why Luo Yuechen had suddenly attacked Aimudula, he knew that Luo Yuechen always acted with a sense of proportion. There must be a pressing and justifiable reason for the attack, so he did not intervene.

"What 'this' and 'that'? I don't even know who that guy is." Xu Zuoyan clearly did not want to discuss that person any further.

Suddenly, the passersby on the street cast their gazes toward them. Seeing the cold, stern expression on the man in the suit, they instinctively stepped back, and no one stepped forward to help. Some, however, remained out of curiosity to watch how things would unfold; some took out their phones to take pictures, while others made calls.

Yun Suiyan bowed to Han Mi'er and greeted Hua Qingyan in a friendly manner. But Yun Zixi did not show Han Mi'er a pleasant look, nor did she acknowledge her at all. Seeing Han Mi'er clutching Hua Qingyan’s right hand, she slapped her hand away with such force that it was abruptly broken free.

The Great Ming Code was the law established by Zhu Yuanzhang at the beginning of the dynasty; he believed that as long as his descendants utilized this code well, the Ming Empire would endure for ten thousand generations. What he did not foresee was that society would continue to develop and progress, and that a legal code kept in use for hundreds of years would eventually severely hinder the pace of social advancement.

After a full day of clearing yesterday, the areas previously covered by shrubs and weeds had been cleaned, and piles of brush were gathered in the center. These were all the remnants of the clearing.

That simple sentence made Helian Rong’s throat tighten. A wave of soreness surged into her nose, and her eyes grew hot.

Ao Chen was slightly stunned. He suddenly recalled that in the deep mountains, if he encountered a beast he couldn't defeat, he would immediately flee. Yet, the pale-faced youth didn't seem to be his equal; why, then, did he feel such a strong urge to run away?

Seeing Zhao Cheng'en extend his right hand to him, treating him with the courtesy of an equal, Sky felt even more surprised. Furthermore, Zhao Cheng'en had mentioned that he had "long admired his reputation," which made Sky wonder: was Director Zhao Cheng'en also a fan of popular music?

Yuan Chen followed my gaze. Feng Qingya, passing by, heard my exclamation and looked over. For the first time, I felt that Feng Qingya was truly beautiful. She stood in the rain, her face—devoid of even a hint of a smile—making one’s heart ache.

It seemed that his decision to go down to the river to catch the water monkey back then had been the right one; otherwise, how would he have dealt with the problem of the water birds now?

The Sky City could not withstand the assault of the Holy City. At this juncture, under Lin Lei’s instruction, the Sage City denounced the Holy City’s unprovoked persecution and resolutely formed an alliance with the Sky City to resist the Holy City together.
