47 Chapter 47
Through countless hardships and countless methods, braving mortal perils, he finally subdued these five furious dragons once again and imprisoned them in a cage. Then, he set up a formation to seal them, carving a suppressing stone at the eye of the formation. After hundreds of years, all impurities were washed away, and it turned into the color of jade.
"Hong'er?" Xingluo picked up a delicate piece of cake, licked it with her lips, and looked affectionately at Hong'er.
Ever since she heard that nursery rhyme again, she had a growing and distinct feeling that this Cloud Dream City had an inextricable connection with her. Xuan Shaozhan entering Cloud Dream City, including her own entry, might have been a conspiracy from the very beginning, and at this moment, she had already touched upon a corner of that conspiracy.
Of course, building such a massive underground drainage and sewage system, comparable to a bomb shelter, was not just for discharging domestic wastewater. Its primary purpose was "drainage"—that is, flood prevention and drainage control. This practice was already quite well-developed in Chang'an and Kaifeng during the Tang and Song dynasties, and naturally became even more thorough by the time of the Mongol Yuan dynasty.
In the blink of an eye, she was once again blushing with shame at her own lack of restraint. Fortunately, it was pitch black, and Lu Qifeng could not see the expression on her face.
While tearing away the packing tape stuck to her hands and gently massaging her wrists, Wu Yishuang looked at the lanky boy, waiting to see what he wanted to say.
Such a formidable demon corpse could not even withstand a single blow from him. Not to mention the Tianyi Sect members who still retained their consciousness, even those who had already fallen into demonic corruption could not help but be utterly shocked.
In his view, this Northwest was merely an uncivilized barbarian land, and even if there were military conflicts, the flames of war would never reach the capital.
A forced smile squeezed onto Zhang Shijie's dark, Judge Bao-like face, signaling that it was no matter—after all, Zhao Lie was a member of the imperial clan and controlled an elite force of troops, so this much face still had to be given.
This was the difference between life and death, but Byrd, suspended in mid-air, had no idea that he had just narrowly brushed past the gates of hell.
After explaining his purpose and the internal decision of the Iron Fist Sect to Yu Ruoshi, he proposed that Yu Ruoshi and Tie Yingyue leave the Lin residence and move to the garrison, where they would be protected by a detachment he led.
In the past, every time he offered such persuasion, it was met only with Qin Shi's cold and detached remarks. Yet he still had to persuade her; after all, she was his own younger sister, and he did not want to watch her walk down the wrong path.
The car door opened, and a man in a black trench coat stepped out from the black sedan. He had a scar across his face, a sharp gaze, and exuded danger from head to toe.
The match between Australia and New Zealand had already concluded earlier that afternoon. In the end, the Australian team, possessing significantly superior overall strength, easily defeated New Zealand, earning another opportunity to challenge the Chinese men's basketball team.
As the estate of a dignified second-rank general's mansion, if it were built in such a manner, it would instantly appear far more vulgar. Even if that landscape architect possessed a unique taste, they would never have made it look like this. Could it be that the designer didn't bother to reference the estates of other high-ranking officials during the design process?
The shadow guard Ying Shi knelt quietly on the ground, awaiting Luo Yi's orders, when suddenly he heard a bone-chillingly cold laugh, causing his heart to tighten instantly.
So that was how it was. A flash of mockery crossed Luo Yi's crystal-clear eyes; every time Nangong Liuli saw her, the expression erupting from her eyes was one of bone-deep hatred.
"What are still doing here?" Naihe looked at the Law, who was glaring at her with puffed-up cheeks, feeling puzzled. Great power? Able to manifest in physical form for extended periods?
If the company wanted to introduce outside forces, it had to consider their operational style—especially whether the other party agreed with Taobao's current strategy. This was something that could not be ignored.
Boss Su was probably worrying not only about how to get Su Shanjing out, but also about his younger sister Su Xuejiao, who suddenly had a fit of madness.
This time, screenshots featured the figures of even more business tycoons, who even played along with formation-like postings in President Fang's Moments feed.
Due to the dispute between the two companies, the Selfy series of products had already switched to using Yike's own proprietary chips.
Lin Que frowned. He had thought that once the true form of the demon body was destroyed, the interior of the forest would no longer remain in a state of continuous darkness.
"Does Senior Sister Bai know why I am called Lin Que?" Lin Que blinked, asking with a smile.
The giant flame egg exploded instantly, spreading a sea of fire across the sky, as countless fiery raindrops and shooting stars scattered in all directions.
Looking at Li Dongyang, Yang Tinghe, Wang Hua, and the others, Liu Jian pondered to himself: now that Henan was free from external threats, and with the Yellow River largely harnessed and causing little trouble over the past couple of years, Henan's grain production had risen to the top of the Ming Empire. It would only be a few years before Liaoning pushed Henan off the top spot.
The fierce offensive of the fiery spear came to an abrupt halt upon encountering the bloody aura barrier. No matter how hard the fiery spear tried, it simply could not pierce through the bloody barrier by even the slightest fraction.
It took the Olankah priest a long time to come up with this evaluation. This elderly elven priest rarely interacted with humans outside the Black Wood Forest, and thus was unable to describe the demon slayer with flowery language like a film critic.
At that moment, just as everyone was still immersed in the shock, a deafening roar of "boom" echoed. Immediately afterward, not far away on the shore, a terrifying explosion occurred, whipping up a violent whirlwind.
Bepo patted his bear paw and said with a look of sudden realization. However, what neither the man nor the bear knew was that at this moment, Qingcheng's face had already turned as black as ink.
