However... this phrase actually seems to hold some truth. Understanding one another... having the courage to shoulder responsibilities for each other?

"Good thing you didn't make a move. Didn't you see that these guys are all trained professionals?" Lei Xiao had a sharp eye and could tell at a glance that Xiao Ming and his companions were not ordinary people.

However, reality is always cruel. From that recent scene and the expressions of old Andrew and the various generals, one could guess a little: obviously, Elijah, with his royal bloodline, could not truly bring the turning point that the bleeding Northern Frontier faction yearned for.

Still, building a steamship was no easy task! And crossing the ocean—that journey of tens of thousands of miles—would surely be fraught with danger and endless trials! Along this road, Yihan must have suffered a great deal, right?

Watching that bizarre-looking "tank" drive closer and closer, Daniel and the others on the wall finally saw clearly what that long object on top actually was.

"Wh—" Before Cecilia could finish her muttered word, a pure white mechanical armored arm reached out from the billowing black smoke.

She found it hard to imagine what sort of secret technique Zhang Yi had used to grow to his current level in such a short span of time.

He smiled gently at Su Luoman, with a breathtaking beauty that made even the sun shyly hide behind the clouds, as if not daring to rival his radiance.

"Mother, Ning'er will study hard." Eating something when in a bad mood was indeed a great way to cope; she felt much better. With a slight smile at her mother, she resolved not to bring shame upon her.

"Clang!" A hot cartridge case rolled out as the loader grabbed another fin-stabilized grenade from the ammunition rack and loaded it into the breech.

"Bojing, Hengzhi's words are extremely wise. There are also disadvantages to having a large and mighty force. Besides, when it comes to military matters, none of us can compare to Hengzhi. Furthermore, the actions of the allied forces this time have severely dampened the arrogant spirit of the rebel Dong, and their momentum surely cannot last long!" Zheng Xuan was the first to speak up upon hearing this, recognizing that Xiao Yi's reasoning was indeed sound.

Aside from Bai Junye and Tang Muwan, not a single soul knew of Ye Han's whereabouts. The news had not been spread in order to let the soldiers and citizens of Sunset City and Tongzhou continue believing that Ye Han was still present—a decision made out of utmost caution.

Run listened to my words and said joyfully, "If Imperial Grandmother accompanies Grandson, Grandson naturally will not be afraid." Looking into his hopeful eyes, I had already made up my decision and informed Qihuai.

No matter how hateful Xu Xianer was, and no matter how much Baili Cangming annoyed her, the child was innocent.

"See you later!" Su Momo waved at Tian Tian and walked toward the dormitory. After such a long and exhausting ordeal, she was bone-tired and longed to lie down on her bed for a rest.

The bed had already been made. I undressed him in the quiet inner chamber where the drop of a pin could be heard. In the flickering candlelight, I repeatedly recalled the madness of that night, and my face inevitably flushed red.

Shen Yunyou calmly gazed at Situ Rui's retreating figure, and just as he was about to vanish from her sight, she spoke unhurriedly.

"Master, what is inside this thing? Why is the cold qi it emits so intense?" Seeing that his spiritual sense could not penetrate it, Zhang Yang turned his head and asked Tian Kou.

On Nanshan Mountain, the green-robed bandit lay lazily stretched across a tree branch, enthusiastically opening a purse to inspect his loot. When he saw that the pouch contained only a few pieces of broken silver, his face inevitably fell.

At that moment, before Wang Haochen could decline Xiaoyang's good intentions, the other party directly hung up the phone.

One must know that this is how common stalactites in caves are formed: water containing carbon dioxide seeps into the cracks of limestone, producing a mixture of calcium carbonate and water that drips down continuously until the moisture slowly evaporates, the carbon dioxide escapes, and the calcium carbonate gradually solidifies.

Liu Muxia left the company, found a nearby cafe, and sent her location: "I've arrived at the company. Come out and let's chat."

He looked down at Li Hongyan. The strongest young cultivator of the Central Domain currently lacked a trace of blood from her face down to her neck, and her expression was one of extreme agony. The blood-red cicada was still slightly pulsing its abdomen just beneath her neck.

Tian Miaomiao and Cheng Zhao did not wait for dawn before quietly leaving. By the time Tian Qianxi came to look for them, wanting to see them off, the two had already been gone for nearly an hour.

As the words fell, the master chefs immediately placed the cases carried by the fighters behind them in front of Heisenberg.

Moreover, if anything happens on my end, as long as you can keep up, you are welcome to handle it together with me.

Whether it was the annihilation of the Zhan family, or her sudden realization that she had fallen for the man before her and longed to reveal her true identity to him and have a genuine romance, she wanted to share every single one of her secrets with him.

Yet she could not refuse, or it would appear suspicious. Thus, torn internally and glancing back repeatedly at the magical beast's carcass, she could only follow Governor Stafano and walk at the front of the procession.

"What paperwork? The matter of you people from Daodong beating up our security guards isn't settled yet! We are preparing to terminate your contract early, kick you out of Junlin, and rent those offices to someone else in the future—keep dreaming!" Manager Wu's face was as rigid as a zombie's, and his words showed no mercy, instantly bringing tears to Qiu Xue's eyes.

"Just come!" The president said without room for argument, leading Jia Zhengjin away from the crowded venue and into the backstage lounge.

Seeing the man before her personally admit that he was "Song Dehai," especially since his appearance matched his photos on Baidu Encyclopedia identically, Su Ruobing's previous doubts were completely dispelled.

"Why talk so much? You and I are both martial artists. If you have the guts, let's spar one-on-one!" Luo Qianqian flushed with anger, casting a provocative, sidelong glare at him.
