Chapter 51: Please Don't Give Me Any Surprises

Eucommia bark soup nourishes the liver and kidneys while strengthening the tendons and bones, though those with excessive heart fire should avoid drinking it in large amounts.

Lu Youyou paused as she ladled the soup, then asked once more, "Are you truly fully recovered?"

Gu Qingye nodded. Ever since he began practicing his boxing at dawn, that unsettling sensation of surging blood and Qi had never returned.

Still uneasy, Lu Youyou only filled half a bowl for him. "Take it step by step. Your body is precious—I cannot have you bleeding again."

Gu Qingye wanted to tell her he was completely fine, but in the end...

A flash of a blade cut through the air, accompanied by shrill screams. Around the damaged camp gates, the defending White Elves were cut down in droves.

She had returned from the dead, and within her fragmented memories, her mother was her only remaining kin. Only now did she truly understand the preciousness of family.

History proved that the ancient deity's third leg was not only formidable and enduring, but also possessed an unyielding vigor.

How could Zhou Lin possibly surrender? In this day and age, supernatural beings had been reduced to such desperate straits. For him, a Class-A wanted criminal, surrendering was far too dangerous—it was practically a death sentence. Therefore, his only thought now was to draw the soldiers away and ensure Qiu Ling and the others remained safe. Once he survived this ordeal, he would contact them and flee far away from this place.

"Does the lifting of the lockdown mean the intruder has been caught?" Robin eagerly crowded around the table to fish for information.

Lu Chen felt not a trace of sleepiness. If anything, the passionate interlude had left him feeling refreshed. Glancing at Feng He, who was sleeping sweetly by his side, Lu Chen decided not to disturb him and instead slipped directly into the Primordial Chaos Pearl.

Yet, regardless of circumstances, the item was simply too precious. He could not bring himself to accept it with a clear conscience, so he decided he would wait until he saw Zhu Meichen tomorrow.

"Cut inside! Cut inside! Attack through the center, leave the flanks to Patrice!" Yi Cheng hurriedly directed Obertan to shift their tactical focus.

"Ah, the tree desires calm, but the wind refuses to cease. I have repeatedly avoided them, yet they press on relentlessly, casting aside all bonds of brotherhood in their determination to put me to death. Must I truly draw my sword and take lives as well?" Zhao Cheng looked out over the desolate graves and sighed.

"Does Tianji feel that my prominence yesterday was too great, making me an object of envy for others?" Seeing Shan Tianji's somewhat heavy expression, Liu Yu asked.

"Didn't you say you found an excuse with Elder Yan and the others? As it happens, I have an idea that can spare you from their coercion." Without hesitation, Xiao Yunfei immediately stated what he was capable of doing.

According to Wen Xin's understanding, the combat strength figures inside the Tower of Valor were not static; their power scaled progressively with the challenger's martial arts realm. Yet even on the first floor, the phantom's strength was far from negligible within the challenger's tier.

I searched the surroundings inch by inch in a meticulous, blanket-like sweep, my heart growing steadily colder. Once fallen into the Seventh Brother's hands, how could I possibly hope to escape with even half my life intact?

Zhen Yuan halted his departing footsteps. He turned back to look at the brilliant golden light radiating from the fifth floor of the Tower of Valor, and with just a single glance, he walked away.

At that moment, the Boar let out a deafening roar, shouting, "Hide!" To my astonishment, he vanished completely into thin air. I activated my Heavenly Eyes, yet I still could not trace him.

Only a short while had passed since they last met, yet not only had his cultivation advanced tremendously, but he had also purchased a sprawling estate like the Blue Cloud Manor. Judging by his demeanor, he seemed to be living quite comfortably.

Lü Xuan was caught off guard by Ren Zhonglong's fierce strike and coughed up a mouthful of blood, instantly splattering it all over Yun Wanhua's face and body.

Had it been anyone else, a direct blow from "Matchless" would have instantly claimed their life. However, "Mystic-Yellow" Xiang Mingxiao was protected by the "Yellow Dragon Golden Armor," which prevented the strike from being fatal, though his heart had still been pierced by "Matchless," leaving him merely clinging to his last breaths.

It could be said that from the moment this decision was made until now, the entire situation had remained firmly within their control.

Just as Long Qingqing walked away, four figures materialized behind Long Zhiyu. These four were none other than the Four Envoys of the Dragon Realm, and besides Long Zhiyu herself, they were the most powerful beings in the domain. Liu Xu spoke up, "Matriarch, has she broken through to the God Emperor realm?"
