Chapter 59: Clown Carnival (8)

Lillian went back in the end, despite her extreme reluctance.

For the very first time, Lillian felt such deep regret and self-reproach. Had she been just a little more vigilant, none of this would have happened.

"Lillian, my dear, I am so sorry."

Pascal softened his voice. He looked down at the silent Lillian, aggrieved yet sincere. "Darling, I truly never meant to hurt you. Perhaps my actions were a bit too impulsive. I apologize to you, please forgive me, Lillian."

A series of unimaginably majestic wills roared in fury, and instantly, the entire population of the Seventh Planet watched as a colossal palm materialized abruptly in the sky, crashing down mercilessly toward Wu Shen.

The fleeting news items were already enough to give him a clear understanding of the situation within the city of Fengling.

Xiao Mei knew Lin Mo inside out. This emperor was tyrannical by nature and always managed to come up with new and vicious tricks.

"I knew Long Huiyun would amount to something. Now that he has reopened the Lianyun Path, he is bound to come and save us. The moment I get out of here, I'm marrying him." Qian'er wiped her tears away in excitement.

Furthermore, George was glad that he had made the prompt decision to head straight to Johnny Gerard's house. If he had hesitated over Lucy Gerard's boyfriend and waited until they received a gunshot report before dispatching officers, there would be more than just a single corpse waiting for them now.

Daredevil, who had been wondering why Hawson's car-crushing punch felt so "soft," immediately misinterpreted his words upon hearing this, assuming Hawson had been holding back his true strength earlier.

Though Ni Xiang's memories were returning, she remained uncertain whether the other person would forget their past memories.

The opinions of the audience had become utterly inconsequential to the contestants. Rex now needed to carefully ponder his future path, as the Masereis family no longer had any room for him.

A group of young scions began shouting and urging each other to charge forward. Yet they were not complete fools, and many hailed from strict households; they were adept at watching the spectacle and hurling insults, but when it came to actual fighting, they were absolute cowards. Besides, the punch Lin Fei had just delivered—sending Liu Bao flying—proved he was definitely no pushover.

Over the three days of battle, many of the seventh-tier evil spirits Wu Shen had previously released had consumed sufficient soul fluid and flesh-and-blood lifeforms to successfully break through to the eighth tier, and they immediately rushed over to join the fray.

"If killing Kaby can calm your fury, he is yours right now." Odin gave a slight gesture, as though pointing at a heap of rubbish in a corner, showing not a shred of pity.

Riven revived and hurried back to the bottom lane to farm a wave of minions, directly purchasing the crucial Black Cleaver. Even with the crocodile wearing ninja tabi, Riven at least had a fighting chance now, unlike the passive beating she suffered previously.

"Naturally," the leader of the thugs said, his hand stopping less than ten centimeters away from Nie Ting's chest.

At this moment, the raging flames illuminated the night sky in a brilliant white, while a faint, ethereal halo shimmered vaguely in the surroundings. As the wind blew across Lianyu's temples, she gazed at the fire, her heart heavy with an indescribable, boundless sorrow.

As for Zhou Jun, upon hearing those words, he stood frozen in place. It took him a long moment to snap back to his senses, his complexion slowly turning from pale to a blazing crimson.

A male student pointed not far away at Lin Hao, who was currently drinking pork rib soup with his back turned toward them.

The Black-Fly Rhinoceros was a fifth-tier creature. Aside from its thick hide and six somewhat threatening horns, it was utterly useless. However, what made it noteworthy was its symbiotic companion; it could summon massive swarms of black flies, and anyone ensnared by them would be sucked dry into a husk.

Zhang Zhuangmo and a group of blade-and-axe wielding warriors swiftly boarded the large vessel, and their ship immediately set sail.

"Such sheer arrogance from Ling Xiaoxu. Does he truly think he has attained enlightenment?" Tang Sai'er naturally saw everything with absolute clarity. While furious, she felt an even deeper sense of humiliation—Ling Xiaoxu's actions showed utter contempt for her.

"Naturally. If they fail, it can only mean they lack this affinity," Bai Shengju and the others nodded repeatedly. Another crucial reason they were so anxious to enlist Chen Yi's help was to see precisely how he intended to handle the matter. Uncovering the secrets behind it would naturally be even better.

The final battle was finally ignited, and those fewer than one hundred people used the very last shred of their strength to move the tens of thousands of enemies standing before them.

"Are you mute? You were the one arguing to speak for yourself just a moment ago, why are you stuttering now?" Ouyang Hongxue glared at Qi Baifeng in dissatisfaction and said resentfully.

It was a rumor, another rumor. Kangle refused to believe that the Prince of Huai'an would dare to touch the forbidden territory of grain without absolute certainty.

Hearing him put it this way, the crowd immediately burst into cheers and applause, while sycophants eagerly expressed their allegiance, vowing that the classmates would share a single boat through thick and thin.

It was a genuine knockback. The frail Cowherd was sent flying backward, crashing heavily against the red lacquered pillar inside the hall. With a dull thud, dust rained down from the ceiling, and Gao Jun was almost shaken off his perch.

Suddenly, the ears of Gao Jun—who had been merely watching the spectacle—twitching sharply. His auditory acuity far surpassed that of ordinary people, and amidst the crackling static, he caught a strange, unusual sound.

He remembered when the two of them first met, when Gao Jun had impulsively pushed open the dormitory door and happened to catch Teacher Han in the middle of changing her clothes. That peerless, breathtaking back was still deeply branded in his mind, often drifting back into view during the quiet hours of midnight dreams.

Yet when Ansel won three consecutive games, completely crushing Jian Yun and Jian Lü without leaving them the slightest room to fight back, all three of them were left momentarily stunned.

When the main soul arrived here, the primordial embryo trembled violently, its energy accumulation having reached its absolute peak. If a main soul were not integrated into it immediately, his primordial embryo would explode.

Yi Feng's body was still somewhat weak, and his complexion bore a sickly pallor, giving him a frail, wind-shaken appearance. Yet when Yi Feng's gaze locked onto his, the man was so terrified that he stumbled backward several steps, ultimately collapsing onto his buttocks on the deck.

Knowing that Master Leng possessed countless secrets, Guo Jia understood that if the other man chose not to speak, he must not pry. He could only watch in stunned silence as Master Leng departed.

Hearing Yang Chaoran put it that way, several of the bosses eagerly began discussing how to outbid one another.

Oblivious to the reason, Howard instinctively snapped his faceplate shut, manipulating three drone armors to shield himself as his fire control system locked onto Tony, unleashing a hail of gunfire the next instant.

With a crisp crack, just as the dust settled, the thunder beast was seen clamping a sword beam in its jaws. Even as its thunderous fangs shattered, the sword Qi was ground into fragments.

She then kept vigil by Yang Chaoran's bedside all through the night, because the doctor had warned that Yang Chaoran might develop a fever.

I nodded in a daze, wondering if Quan He had laid everything bare to my mother and younger brother after I left earlier.

Beneath the opposite basketball hoop, four tall and sturdy male students, seemingly members of the school team, were performing slam dunks.

Knowing that she was unwelcome, Qiao Nuanyang pulled Rui Rui to play in the living room, while Qin Shinian sat under a parasol and lit a cigarette.
