Along the way forward, pedestrians were virtually unseen, though hordes of zombies appeared in waves.
Wielding a skull-bone sniper rifle, Qi Fengling made no move; after all, his targets were not them, and he did not wish to court too much trouble.
After a dozen days of the apocalypse, humanity had come to understand their plight. Countless zombies and mutant beasts lurked in every corner of the city, and just to stay alive, they could only choose to hide away in terror.
Who would have thought that the second most prosperous city in Hubei Province would now be reduced to a city of the dead? Those luxurious shopping malls stood deserted, with all kinds of precious jewelry and ornaments scattered across the floors amidst...
The crowd was shocked. Upon learning the origin of the Ten-Headed Fire Phoenix, they all gasped in amazement. This truly was a supreme being of a generation—could Han Lang possibly defeat this mutated super divine beast?
Leader Xue was already too late to block with his sword. Flipping his left palm, he struck out toward his chest, intending to force him to withdraw his sword to save himself. Unexpectedly, Tan Lin neither dodged nor evaded, his sword momentum not slowing down in the slightest.
Fu Liuyin was extremely nervous and felt completely uncertain inside. To be honest, she did not believe that Mu Chengjun could be so kind-hearted; she wouldn't believe it even if she died.
Shunzhi felt a pang of heartache seeing Shen Shiyun's face turned pale from the cold, still putting up a pitiful facade as she clenched her teeth to endure it. He persuaded, "Yun'er, if you are truly so afraid of the cold, do not push yourself. Let's find an inn to rest first." Shen Shiyun replied, "This concubine is fine. How could I—cough, cough—ruin everyone's mood for my own sake?" Even as she spoke, she coughed incessantly.
Xu Qingshen stared at Ling Shiyin with a hostile gaze, as if she had truly done something shameful.
The winter daylight arrived tardily. At this moment, the oil lamp on the wall cast human shadows—faint ones, yet those with keen eyesight could still discern them.
Fortunately, this was not an extremely urgent matter that needed to be done immediately; I could afford to plan it out leisurely.
Xiao Ai smiled and nodded, her emotions displaying an indescribable calmness. It seemed that the moment I decided to go to Shenzhen, she had made an even more momentous decision! Perhaps she was tired, or perhaps she had lost hope in everything.
Hearing this, the numerous branch-line martial artists present all surged forward, transforming into a sky-full of sharp glares as they slaughtered toward Mo Xuling.
Xie Gu had rarely come to look for her today, and as Shaohua happened to have no plans to go out, she personally welcomed him into the room.

At this thought, Liang Yinge picked up the phone and found that the screen was secured with a pattern lock. Liang Yinge tried swiping it several times, but was unable to unlock it.
"We'll move out the moment the patrol vehicle passes. Everyone get ready..." Ray glanced outside once more before speaking to the special operations team members. With that, he clutched his assault rifle and kept his eyes fixed tightly on the patrol vehicle outside the door.
Hu Ao sighed and walked aimlessly in a random direction. Suddenly, his foot tripped over a protruding hard object on the ground, nearly causing him to fall. Groping at the hard object with the sole of his foot for a moment, he realized it was merely an ordinary rock.
When they returned home, they were informed by the caretaker left behind that North Wind had just sent word that he was on his way to Hong Kong.
After some commotion, everyone got into the cars. However, Wang Haimeng did not ride in the same vehicle; he had his own car. The moment the vehicles started, Li Xin looked back and saw Wang Haimeng flashing an eerie smile. His heart skipped a beat, filling him with an ominous premonition.
Li Ye immediately laughed out loud, looking at her, his dark brown pupils shining brightly in the illumination of the firelight.
Sighing silently, he lowered his head and planted a gentle kiss on her lips, yet as if reluctant to pull away, he lingered for a full several seconds.
"Energy fluctuation attacks—when powers too immense collide, before they erupt, such attacks are caused by the diffusion of these energy fluctuations. Generally speaking, however, such attacks do not occur because wielding overly immense energy would cause damage to this universe." Xingchen quietly watched Hu Ao and explained to Rongrong.
Surveying the already dilapidated mortal realm, Hu Ao let out a long sigh. Without the slightest motion, he had already vanished from everyone's sight, taking Li Yuling with him.
Suddenly, an old man materialized out of thin air, blocking Hu Ao's path. His hands waved rapidly—make no mistake, he was not setting up any sort of defense, but merely gesturing for Hu Ao not to throw that punch.
Because, despite the fact that his previous clash with Qin Yan involved the premise that he hadn't displayed his full strength, Murong Fu was genuinely astonished by Qin Yan's martial arts skills.
"Gather the men immediately and take a force to occupy Hao Jian's territory of the Greedy Wolf Gang," Ding Yi stated in an unquestionable tone.
The anger on Murong Fu's face was witnessed by everyone around, and coupled with what Qin Yan had said earlier, a trace of strange emotion instantly surfaced on the faces of those present.
Ivalo felt as though his lungs had been shattered. This time, Ivalo's "asthma" attack was truly genuine.
He was Asano Akane's biological brother, so the dishes he prepared would carry the taste of family. This was a unique advantage possessed only by the food cooked by Leng Feiyan.

In truth, it wasn't all that different from the outside world, so perhaps calling it a slum would not be too much of an exaggeration.
"Kallon Crypt?" Han Bin did not have a very deep impression of this. Once he reached level 30, he could go take a look and see what was actually inside there.
By evening, the heavy rain gradually ceased, though thick rain clouds still blanketed the sky. Gensokyo was washed clear and translucent.
Hearing the command, the clansmen turned their heads one after another to look toward the foot of the hillside. Their left hands held long bows high in the air, while their right hands drew feathered arrows and nocked them to the strings. Though they had not yet drawn them back, the elevation angles of their arrowheads were all aimed at the sky directly above the heads of the front-row warriors.
Now she finally understood why the theater assistant had offered her this opportunity without the slightest hesitation when she asked for it.
The negotiations made no substantive progress. Yixin sent a telegram to the Guangxu Emperor: "Reporting to Your Majesty, pursuant to imperial decree, I have conducted two rounds of negotiations with the Tang army representative Liu Weichen. The Tang army stated bluntly that negotiations will not proceed unless Your Majesty issues an edict of abdication. According to them, the Empress Dowager and Imperial Consort Zhen are both safe and sound. How should I reply during the next negotiations? I humbly await Your Imperial Edict."
Zheng Jiao raised his leg and stomped down hard on the neck of one of the Japanese soldiers. A crisp crunch of breaking bones was heard.
The steamer emitted a low buzzing sound, riding against the rosy clouds, chasing after the ocean waves, and cleaving through the wind and breakers toward its destination.
If it becomes necessary hereafter, will you still be able to come? Wasn't this phrasing a bit too ambiguous? Hearing this, Yan Ming felt a momentary flutter in his heart. Without any preceding context, uttering such a single remark so casually was bound to make people's imaginations run wild! Even after hearing the context, Yan Ming could not avoid it.
Having received Xiao Xuanxuan's permission, Yang Tianyou acted as though he had received a grand amnesty. After expressing his gratitude repeatedly, he departed.
Artillery Commander Shi Jiaxing personally directed the artillery duel. Seeing him swing his command banner downward, he shouted at the top of his lungs: "Target the Qing army position, high-explosive fragmentation shells, instantaneous fuses, fire!" In an instant, all the artillery pieces roared in unison, shells flying toward the Qing army positions with shrill, piercing shrieks.
Wu Zedong experienced a sudden realization, and he became even more convinced that this bronze pagoda was putting him through tests set to the rhythm of 'trying to beat him to death'.
To dispel Wu Ze's aversion to the Bronze City, Cang Shu had no choice but to recount as many benefits of being the Master of Bronze to Wu Ze as possible.
