Chapter 25: The True Face of Shen Shuwan

Mother Liu Xiulan heard someone calling her. She wiped her hands on her apron and tiptoed toward the door.

In a flash, Li Ming gave up on the Water Spirit Pearl and retreated into the Gourd World. Once inside, the Ancient Giant Dragon and the Water Spirit Pearl collided, but there was no struggle as one might have expected; it was as if the Water Spirit Pearl had returned to its mother's embrace, and the Ancient Giant Dragon had found its long-lost dragon pearl.

If it wasn't a "ghost wall" trap created by a formation, how else could one explain them sprinting in the opposite direction, only to find the loess platform appearing in front of them again, blocking their path?

Accommodating the Five Elements was no problem, but how to subsequently accommodate the Five Thunders caused Li Xu further anxiety. His Ruyi Golden Cudgel contained a split soul of his own. A soul is most vulnerable to the power of thunder and lightning; he wondered if it could truly withstand the fusion of the Five Thunders.

"Thanks, if it weren't for you, I wouldn't have been able to get in!" Ye Tian was truly shameless. As far as he was concerned, taking advantage of any situation was his life's motto. Besides, why not take advantage of a freebie delivered to his doorstep? With such luxury, you wouldn't even dream of staying here for less than ten thousand yuan a day.

After class ended, Peng Junhui walked out of the room, and the entire classroom erupted into a frenzy, everyone curious and questioning what had happened to him. This matter also continued to trouble Lin Mengmeng.

Only Sun Jinxin sat there looking extremely uncomfortable, shifting his bottom back and forth as if there were a thorn under his chair.

Just as the cultivators were searching for Li Ming, thunder and lightning suddenly flashed across the sky, followed by a torrential downpour. The fluctuations from the exotic treasure grew increasingly intense. It seemed this treasure was truly extraordinary, having already triggered a violent shift in the weather.

Amaterasu was frustrated, her expression grim. Because the fusion of light and dark energies was imperfect, a ripple had occurred in the combined energy, preventing her from killing without a trace. She felt a tinge of regret in her heart.

Teacher He felt helpless upon hearing Su You's words. He naturally knew Su You was intentionally targeting those specific students, but there was nothing he could do; since Su You had asked, he had to answer with forced patience.

"Let's go take a look ahead!" Ximen Jinlian stood up. If such fraud were occurring at the grand stone gambling event, it would be truly disgraceful.

Actually, Li Shuihan's situation was the perfect example of the saying, "When a person is down on their luck, even drinking cold water will get stuck in their teeth." However, some misfortunes cannot be avoided no matter how hard one tries; one can only do their best to prevent them. If they truly cannot be avoided, then one must find a way to deal with them.

Qi Shanhe shook his head in a daze. Although his strength was formidable, the White Star organization was a low-key group, and most people were not truly aware of it.

While Tang Yun was still steadily learning the radicals of the Shenhai Continent, Xiao Lang could already master all the characters, and even combine them into sentences.

However, the person who fired the gun underestimated Liu Shi's ferocity and reaction speed. A second before the finger pressed the trigger, the gun went off. Liu Shi didn't fire randomly; the muzzle was pointed directly at him. The shooter never managed to fully pull the trigger; his right shoulder was struck, blood flowing uncontrollably, and the powerful impact made it impossible for him to hold his weapon. The gun fell to the ground.

Reaching out and pressing her hand onto the Snake King Stone, Ximen Jinlian closed her eyes and began to use her X-ray vision. Generally, she only used it on jade raw materials in her daily life and rarely on other objects, as she found it quite boring—the internal structures of many things were not very pleasant to look at, so she intelligently chose not to look.

Shen Long, because of the existence of the You clan, knew that for the next thousand years, anything involving them would never be simple. He did not want to push the Shen family into an irreversible abyss.

"You..." Li Hua roared, his anger at its peak. As he spoke, he looked at Liu Shi, then at Han Wei, unsure of whom he was addressing.

At this moment, with a loud boom, a deep chasm tore open in the sky, and from this chasm leaped an old man with the air of an immortal.

...After consuming a pound and a half of meat dumplings, Hu Wanchao let out several burps. The smell of scallions on his breath made me frown.

Mei Yan'er was equally gnashing her teeth. On one hand, Chen Yuan was her only friend; on the other, there were the tens of thousands of precious classics lost by the Divine Imperial Sect.

If they had to wait for the baby in Hao Xin's stomach to be born and reach its first month, wouldn't that take another four or five months? Xia Yenuo immediately regretted bringing up the question.

He even felt a bit of admiration for the Monk Xile. This guy truly dared to eat anything. He also understood that these mushrooms could only be consumed by immortals; if a mortal ate them, they would be like deadly poison, resulting in certain death.

"Don't worry about that; who else but our own people could see that?" The director tacitly allowed the executive director to put the matter on the agenda.

Although Rui Mengmeng herself did not know the ins and outs of the "Ice Heart Talisman," at this moment, she was indeed enjoying the convenience it brought.

"There's such a move?" The reason Murong Chen hadn't been stunned at the time and had remained so calm was actually because he had long suspected it, and the reason for his suspicion was that his past life had been Lu Bu.

Reclaiming his spear, Murong Chen put away the six styles and floated in mid-air, watching Murong Fang. Murong Fang did not take the opportunity to attack, but instead ascended to the sky to face Murong Chen from a distance.

"Your subordinate greets the Lord, General Taishi, and Clerk Xin." Xun Yu stepped inside and, seeing that there were quite a few people present, hurriedly greeted them one by one.

Passing through the three courtyards, they entered the backyard. In the quiet courtyard before them, many green bamboos were planted. Among the bamboo stood an exquisite rockery, and natural spring water guided by the side of the rockery flowed gently around it, making for a beautiful scene.
