Chapter 153: The Sexagenarian Granny

"Naturally not. I have only ever seen fleeting mentions of such an ability in ancient texts. Had I not witnessed it with my own eyes today, I would still doubt its existence... Since the Fifth Epoch, the River of Time has grown increasingly stable and nearly impossible to shake, a far cry from the past... and much of this is the result of the tireless efforts of many prophecy-path legends."

Midir expressed similar awe, then hesitated before adding, "If my perception is correct, that assassin carries a vast amount of mystical aura, extremely concentrated, and the transcendent power she employed—"

She assumed that Sunuola was upset because the Emperor had failed to visit the Fengkun Palace, and that she was taking her anger out on him for treating Consort Li and Consort Duan too well, which explained her current behavior.

As for his original draconic traits, such as his scales, they had vanished entirely. Liu Lang no longer possessed a so-called true form; his current state was his true state, eliminating the need to use dragon-ball incantations to disguise himself as he had done in the past.

Qin Xiyan lay there with tear-filled eyes, gazing resentfully at Qin Mu'an. Oh well, what could she do now that she was already married?

The mere thought that all these honors rightfully belonged to their Huahai TV Station made them wish they could march right into the prison, drag Yang He out, and give him a sound thrashing.

The gatekeeper of the Wujing branch was extremely dutiful, refusing to open the gates without orders from his superiors, yet the formidable reputation of the "Hall of Ultimate Endurance" made him too afraid to be negligent. Consequently, he immediately called headquarters. Upon hearing that people from the "Hall of Ultimate Endurance" had arrived, headquarters hurriedly issued an order to open the gates.

Upon hearing this, Hao Ren instantly recalled that night at Wu Shuang's villa when Ah Jiu had revealed Wu Shuang's background. Wu Shuang's parents had been killed when she was very young, and Old Tang had taken her in. Only now did he learn that her parents had once been cadres.

The dragon elders of that era were incomparable to the dragon elders of today. The highest cultivation level among the current dragon elders was merely the peak of the Golden Immortal realm, whereas during the war between the two clans, the bare minimum standard for a dragon elder was a Heavenly Venert.

Strategizing involves much more than simply considering every possible angle. Man proposes, but heaven disposes; whether Hua Bukai or I will emerge victorious depends entirely on who has better luck, Liu Chengyin said with a smile.

Leaving the Saint Dou Academy, Huang Yan headed straight for Count Raymond's residence. He needed to inform Cohen about the matters concerning the carpentry and ironware workshops.

"A leopard cannot change its spots. Do you think you understand Ao Xun better, or do I? In truth, Ao Xun and I are the exact same kind of person; when faced with a sacred artifact, neither of us could afford to be soft-hearted. It's just that right now, my ambition exceeds my grasp; otherwise, the very first person to strike at you would be me," Ao Ying said with brutal honesty.

Sun Ce glanced at Zhou Yu without a word, raised his spear, and once more led his troops charging toward Cao Ren's position, going to lend a helping hand.

When Lu Su walked up to him and bowed with clasped hands, Sun Ce saw that he was dressed in a scholar's robe, wore a gauze crown, and possessed an air of graceful ease, prompting him to inwardly praise his fine appearance. From ancient times to the present, human preferences have fundamentally remained unchanged: everyone loves a handsome face, though the standard of beauty varies from era to era.

A tall and handsome man is always able to win greater favor with people. Such was the case with Lu Su; before he had even spoken a word upon arrival, his outward appearance had already put everyone in a pleasant mood.

Liang Shan saw Jiang Shangyan walking side by side with Si Niang, both of them radiating a deeply affectionate demeanor in their eyes and brows. Then he heard Jiang Shangyan abruptly utter the words "Young Sister Si Niang," followed by the announcement that he intended to spend New Year's Eve at the Liang family estate.

"Your entire style is just recklessly kill-stealing," Yu Luocheng muttered inwardly, having already abandoned any attempt to argue with Ye Han.

"If it's just like that, then it's not much different from the summit-conquering mode. Both require killing more trial subjects to achieve a better score, so I wouldn't call one more dangerous than the other, would you?" Roger asked pensively from the side.

Walking down the bustling street, Ming San was in no particular hurry. Although he was worried about Ming San, he believed that with yesterday's tempering, Ming San would undergo a qualitative leap. Just as children raised under their parents' wings can never truly grow up, what Ming San lacked right now was practical experience; only through sufficient trials could he finally mature.
