Chapter 36: Hostage

Three massive warships flew flags bearing skull emblems, each prow mounted with a steel cannon. As the side panels pushed open, they revealed two perfectly aligned rows of artillery. Their firepower was formidable, beyond any question.

Someone ripped out a keyboard and slammed it hard against the monitor. After a series of crackling sounds, the screen suddenly went black.

"I'm sorry," Liu Yan said, his face full of guilt. A wisp of Dragon Essence seeped from his fingertips, slowly repairing the "sin" he had just committed.

He was particularly obsessed with a puzzle game called Lianliankan, to the point where he lost interest in food.

Immediately after, pearl-like light particles emerged from A-Zhi’s body, covering every inch of his skin. Then, A-Zhi mysteriously vanished; no one knew where he had gone.

The powerful Missile Storm stored within the Staff of Nether had been exhausted during the battle with the pirates and required ten days to recharge. However, the Animated Shield still contained eight charges of Disintegrate.

"Haha, this Steel guy, he’s really something." A-Zhi’s words were very gratifying to Steel. As for whether Dr. Oak had truly mentioned Steel’s superb skills to A-Zhi, only A-Zhi knew the truth.

Upon hearing this, President Xie was so terrified he lost control of his bowels. He slammed his head against the floor with a rhythmic thud, unaware even when his scalp began to bleed. He could smell the scent of death radiating from the young man.

Han Feng was also startled. He quickly turned around, shielding his vital points, and looked left and right. The Dragon Ball space was empty and offered no place to hide; he could only run behind Xiong Kun for cover.

"Zhuang Ai, Tu Jiu, how dare you betray the Blood God Ancestor! The Supreme Elders will not let you off!" the Shadow Assassin roared in fury and terror.

Then, her ungraceful sleeping posture was witnessed by a crowd. The story spread from person to person.

She truly could not understand what the Tiger King was thinking, choosing a believer of a Main God to be the new king.

The nine who had awakened saw Zhang Qi holding a five-year-old child and looked at each other in confusion, not daring to speak out of turn.

Walking along the Hot River, one felt the arrival of spring; the grass by the riverside was green, dotted with wild flowers.

"Whoever draws the one is the dorm leader!" To avoid any suspicion of plagiarism, Yang Shuai decided to be the last to pick a paper ball.

Yet, for Lin Ye, even after mastering the Ancestral Dragon’s breath, this was hardly so exaggerated; it was as simple as eating, drinking, and playing—far too trivial.

Many soldiers, still eating breakfast in shifts, grabbed their instant noodle cups and squeezed over, hoping to witness the Lord opening the crate.

Ye Fenghua still frowned, wondering if he had made a mistake, and took another bite, holding it in his mouth without swallowing.

Chu Shaoying arrived at the wooden bridge and saw green duckweed blanketing the water surface, with lotus leaves emerging from below. Through the gaps in the duckweed and leaves, one could occasionally see a fish or two swimming gently.

It was quite simple: ever since her mother died in front of her, Chu Xingchen had developed a phobia of watching people jump from buildings; it triggered her deeply.

The surrounding scenery flashed by. It felt not as if the rain were falling on their faces, but as if they were actively lunging into the rain to be drenched. The gale tore Lou Yan’s words into fragments, but Fu Xuezhou, who was holding him, did not miss a single syllable, hearing every word clearly.

As for Feng Junyi, they couldn't help but probe his cultivation with their divine sense again, but still, they found nothing.

Yang Yun swallowed hard. She didn't doubt Qin Sanfu; in fact, after Qin Sanfu revealed his connection to that mysterious force, her perception of him had changed completely, but the idea of a hitman with a gun sounded too unbelievable.

Yet, a second ago, her danger perception hadn't flickered at all. This meant that the danger on the fourth floor had either appeared here from a hundred meters away in the blink of an eye, or it was something that had suddenly formed.

Sun Zhongchang personally took charge of the engagement, not only informing people by phone but also sending out invitations one by one.

The Purple Fire Profound Bird’s crisp voice rang out. It had grown accustomed to the seventh-rank spiritual vein of the Xiao Clan, and now, at a fourth-rank vein, the feeling was completely different.

Qi Yuzan returned the child to the Lu family without making any demands. Lu Zhengchun, a man of loyalty and patriotism, felt his inner scales tip in favor of pledging allegiance to the Crown Prince.

The Sun family members knew the old man’s character best; with Qin Sanfu acting so arrogantly, Sun Zhongting would never give him a pleasant look.

He flicked the surface of the blade, and it trembled slightly without cracking. Fu Xuezhou felt a glimmer of interest. He held the hilt in one hand and swung it casually through the air. The long blade sliced through the wind, emitting a sharp, concise whistle, brimming with killing intent.

"Hmph, how dare you speak to a senior like that?" Before Ma Jun could speak, Yan Mo, who was eager to curry favor, shouted angrily.

"Are you kidding me!" Jon flatly rejected the request. He knew that his techniques for using the Holy Light were limited to a few simple spells from his initial apprenticeship... all other spells were mastered purely by absorbing M'uru's energy. He had nothing to teach Whitemane.

Life is short. Only by focusing fully on one direction and pouring one's heart into it can one showcase their true talent and unique self to the fullest extent.

It is reported that before the invasion of the alien beasts, Xixi’s parents were brilliant scientists and the inventors of this type of translator.

Yet, he simply didn't understand. If he had higher emotional intelligence, he might have been able to win over the class beauty, Yang Zhiyan, while still in school.

"Just quietly accepting the baptism of the sunlight like this, my state of mind has calmed down." Muzi wore a serene smile, eyes half-closed, looking completely content.

Not to mention the experienced filmmakers, even Ma Jun’s own acting skills had reached the heavens; he performed his own action sequences, some of which looked better than special effects.

The Absolute Saint Gate Alliance launched its latest camouflage detector toward Earth, but it was captured by a long-lived demon suspected of being a Great Demon the moment it neared the atmosphere. Had this detector not been loaded with various self-destruct mechanisms, the alliance’s cutting-edge technology might have been exposed instantly.
