It wasn't until Fang Zijing stepped out that the head of the Lu clan reluctantly rose to make a bow, "This old man has seen the island lord, I wonder what the buyer had to say?"

Wiping away her tears, the moonlight shone on Margarita's pale hand, where the water droplets instantly solidified into various shapes and sizes, falling like grains of rice before rolling into the corners of the room. Not far away, Caesar's younger sister still stared with hollow eyes. For a moment, Miguel almost thought he was mistaken—her eyelashes seemed to twitch. Miguel: "…" Big Dog, Earth is terrifying.

He turned to see The Convert, whose cat-like eyes fixed on him with a gaze so clinging and stubborn that for a moment, he mistook him for him. "We look before and after, and pine for what is not!" The Convert said urgently. The Listener didn't understand, and the light in the other's eyes dimmed as the hand holding his loosened its grip. He had mistaken him for…

The moment the name "Katanaphia" was uttered, the Book of Contracts in Lin Wei's eyes suddenly took on an air of profound mystery. In the pantheon of gods, the two goddesses held the highest status—after all, while the nature-based magic had several deities, the light and dark systems each revered only their respective goddesses. It was said that the dark mages—devotees of Katanaphia—had erected statues and built temples for her in the Death Swamp. Their mantras often included phrases like "My…

He rushed out of the office to answer. Zheng Jie began, "Hey, A'Ze, wait a minute—" Situ Ye's voice was faint in the background. "Don't look for him, Zheng…

For ordinary men, going out involves three simple steps: open the door, step out, lock the door. However, Chu Yin and Wei Lai were clearly not ordinary men.

When Bian Ji woke up again, he saw the hospital's somewhat dirty ceiling and the glaring overhead lights. Several people in police uniforms stood around him, there to investigate the traffic accident. Although there was only one surveillance camera in the area and it was far away, it had basically captured the incident. The blind spots would need to be supplemented with evidence from on-site inspections. Before leaving, the police instructed the injured to rest well. Bian Ji tried to get up to see…
