Volume 1 Chapter 40: Riddled with Doubts

Although it is unclear whether the potency of a mage’s spell increases with the duration of its preparation, one thing is certain: any spell capable of unleashing devastating power requires a significant amount of time to prepare.

When the steaming coffee was served, the swelling on one side of my cheek had begun to subside, though it remained quite red.

In the past, Mochizuki had paid little attention to poison masters. After all, the Holy Spirits possessed high resistance to toxins, and ordinary poisons were useless against them. She had encountered some before, and they had merely caused her to sneeze a few times. Thus, when facing this Demelo, Mochizuki merely glanced at him once before looking away.

This time, I did not put the crystal back into my pocket, keeping it in my hand instead, for I felt certain that someone else would call again.

"To be honest, I never intended to let you go, but your recent actions have only strengthened my resolve to finish you off." Xiao Yang smiled, then opened a glass bottle and poured all of its deep red powder onto He Nan.

Every day, subtle changes occur; every day, the atmosphere thickens slightly; and every day, the ambient temperature continues to rise.

Having finished his tasks, Wang Chen turned around, walked directly to the chair opposite Vinier, who sat in silence, and asked his question.

This signified that a core member of the clan had fallen, which was why their ancestral tablet within the shrine had shattered into pieces.

It was based on these misgivings that Zhang Qiang decided to test him, intending at the same time to strike a note of intimidation; otherwise, he would not have allowed his security forces to give them such a stern warning.

"Very well, I’ll leave it to you then!" Huo Xinchen chuckled. Indeed, the feeling of being a hands-off manager was the most satisfying.

"Phoenix, I will summon the heavenly lightning, and you will be responsible for blocking it to let A-Xu undergo his tribulation. This is the only way to save him," the voice of Ghost Whisker echoed.

Qiao Yisheng turned her head and, confirming that no one else was around, assumed Lu Qingru was bidding her farewell. She smiled and waved back at him.

She had developed deep attachments to both the school and her professors. Moreover, she was the type of person who favored a life that was stable, secure, and comfortably within her own zone of familiarity.

I am a Great Immortal! I am a Great Immortal! I am a Great Immortal! Important things must be said three times; I absolutely refuse to do the rough work of wielding weapons to hack people to death! Ao Er sought excuses in his heart, not daring to look at the other divine weapons again.

Looking at Chen Jianming, Yao Guang did not know what to say. She had Huo Mingkun explain the full story to Chen Jianming, and soon, the sound of Chen Jianming’s wailing emanated from the interrogation room.

Yet, when facing Ou Minghan, she felt the true, heart-wrenching pain—a pain that made her tears fall uncontrollably.

This Ao Xin is so generous!!! It was the first time Ao Er had received a transformation card, and it was a top-tier item for boosting magical power! The legends were true; the Dragon Clan is indeed filled with treasures. Ao Er used it with delight and learned the technique to transform into an Azure Dragon.

The four Fierce Tiger Beasts were knocked aside by the trio’s sudden assault, roaring incessantly and shaking the surrounding trees.

Ma Jun: "Alright then, let’s find a coffee shop near your place. I’ll help you study there; it’ll be convenient for you when you head home."

The surrounding onlookers watched with envy, wishing they could rush over to that table and snatch the food for themselves.

"You aren’t being a good girl. If everything went smoothly, how could you have been filming until past two?" The screen of the phone I had just set down suddenly lit up; Jiang Nian had replied in seconds.

He seemed like a great hero who would stand tall for her. A-Li looked at his back, forgetting how to speak.

She could perceive everything shrouded by the thick fog, and now, Qin Mo’s every move was completely under her control.

Furthermore, the Zhang family had repeatedly promised while recruiting them that they would look after them and ensure they would not face retaliation from Bicheng.

"Love? I have never possessed such a thing." Coldness permeated Eastern King’s eyes as he stopped looking at Situ Yan, who lay dying in his arms.

Upon hearing this, Sui Sui nodded happily: "Then let’s go." She, too, wanted to see if the ancient marketplace was lively.

Nagi Arisuin found it somewhat difficult to understand; in his perception, Ikki Kurogane should have been a much more cautious person.

Of course, this batch of diamonds could not be sold out in a single country, but they could be transported to others to be sold.

The old man sitting at the other end of the long table, referred to by everyone as Old Jiang, was currently closing his eyes to rest, as if he were deaf to everything around him. This composed attitude and carefree temperament seemed completely out of place in this decadent casino.

In any case, the movies from your mainland are just a bit lackluster... Of course, Wah-zai is quite pro-mainland, there’s no denying that, but as for the staff working under him, that’s another matter.

The weapons of the Piranha tribe were extremely difficult to deal with. They liked to craft short spears suitable for underwater use from giant fish bones, and they would smear the tips with pufferfish toxin. Although this toxin was not fatal, one prick would cause immediate total paralysis.

Their population gradually increased, growing to over a hundred in these two hundred years, but due to food constraints, they could not expand further and had to remain within this range. The Sharp-toothed Crocodiles could not be wiped out; no matter how large the swamp was, it could not withstand these gluttons.

She knew clearly that even if she did not tell her father herself, he would eventually learn every detail of the matter. If she succeeded, she could make him look at her with new respect and win herself more freedom and status within the family.

Her heart was cold, and her sword was even colder. Wrapped around the Qiuli Sword was the frost and chill gathered from all directions. As the blade passed, the sword intent surged and surged again, squeezing the air into a creaking sound. The peerless chill froze bone and marrow alike.

Qingyuan turned his head to look and saw a man approaching from the north. He was of medium build, wearing loose robes, with a long, ink-black beard, yet he possessed the refined air of a Taoist immortal. His face was stern and steady, resembling the creatures of the Northern Canglun Tribe from years past.

Standing where he was, Zhu Ningmo rubbed his aching forehead, forcibly suppressed his irritability, and could only turn his body around, resignedly walking back the way he came.

This young man, dressed in fine attire, remained calm and composed. Even in such a situation, he simply lifted his teacup and drank silently.
