Lin Hui sat upright on the dark bed inside the room. He held a bowl of corn and yam paste that his mother had left for him in the morning, spooning it into his mouth and swallowing it, spoonful by spoonful. Outside the window, children's playful noises continually drifted in from the alley, seeming to be playing with stones. Further away, a faint, weeping, and desolate sound of someone playing an instrument similar to an erhu could be heard on the wind. BANG. Suddenly, the wooden door of the…

“Recently there have been two incidents here in Xinyu, and even more in Raoshan, with five incidents, all suffering during the day,” Lin Hongzhen whispered, her expression solemn. “Is Elder Uncle and Elder Aunt preparing to move into the Inner City?” Lin Hui suddenly asked. He remembered that Lin Hongzhen's parents were business people in the town, and their family was better off than his. Furthermore, Lin Hongzhen herself was an apprentice at the Sha Yue Great Pharmacy, earning a good wage,…

Dark night, the surroundings were like ink. A tiny orange flame, the size of a bean, quietly burned in the darkness. It seemed to be the world's only light. The flame flickered and swayed, so fragile that a single breath could extinguish it. In the weak light it cast, a young man with a pale face and bloodshot eyes sat quietly on one side. The man was about fifteen or sixteen years old, with ordinary, unremarkable features. He was lightly biting his lower lip; the color of his lips was very…

Su Li rolled back onto his feet. Gao Shupeng was laughing wildly, activating "Spider Walk." However, this time he didn't charge toward Su Li but turned to attack the others. In both speed and strength, Gao Shupeng was almost Su Li's equal. Moreover, he possessed several other Spiritual Source Techniques. How could such a person be defeated? "Brother Peng is invincible! Just surrender!" Song Yuanqing shouted, seeing Su Li's battered state. He burst into laughter. "I get it! That sword strike you used…

Seeing the group charge onto the floating island, Su Li activated "Spider Walk." He overtook everyone without hesitation, charging alone toward Gao Shupeng's group. "You're looking for death—" The man with the earthworm-like scar, also one of Gao Shupeng's five Level 6 experts, showed a savage expression. He couldn't believe Su Li was so audacious, charging in alone. He immediately moved, along with the others, intending to instantly wipe out Su Li. But some, like Song Yuanqing, sensed that…

"Hah! How painful is that?" Qin Haoxuan, who had fallen to the ground, hadn't even had a chance to get up when he was shocked to find that Xi Mufan's Talisman Beast, the White-Headed Wolf, had already pounced in front of him. In one bite, it snapped his neck. "Ah!" As he died in the sea of consciousness, his real body also woke up. But before he could even open his eyes, he was clutching his head and rolling on the ground in pain, his face pale as he cried out ceaselessly. It felt as if a stick were…

A shiver ran through Xing as he was stared at by Qin Haoxuan's gentle gaze. "Damn! I'm afraid of you! Stop looking at me like that! We can go to the laundry room and find their clothes. They go out and kill rogue cultivators every day and get all dirty. They're not going to wash their own clothes, are they? So, if we look in the laundry room, we'll definitely find something." "That is indeed a way. Then what are we waiting for? Let's go!" Qin Haoxuan impatiently pulled Xing along, and they headed…

Studying the history of medieval Europe, figuring out the relationships between the eight Henrys, the six Enriques, or the twelve Heinrichs has always been an extremely troublesome matter. These three names are the same word: translated as Henry in English and French, Enrique in Spanish and Portuguese, and Heinrich in German. And now, this old man who was strolling with Akado in the Louvre in Paris was named Enrique. This old gentleman was wearing ordinary clothes, walking with his hands behind his back…-

On February 3rd, over a military airfield on the outskirts of Paris, a new, four-engine Führer's special plane, a modified German Butcher strategic bomber, slowly landed. Around it, a full twenty escorting Fw-190D fighters were still circling and on alert in the sky. The roar of the engines had not yet dissipated, and the propellers were still turning, when the plane's door was opened from the inside, and a simple gangway was slowly lowered. The first to jump off the plane was a tall man in an SS…

Qingzhou Province was already getting hot as June approached. The bright sunlight, baking the cement roads, made the air steamy. Xiao Ming returned to the imperial palace after lunch and waited for Lu Tong in the imperial study. In the afternoon, when the pendulum clock's hour hand pointed to two o'clock, Lu Tong arrived punctually outside the imperial study. With him was a young man, about thirty years old. The young man wore the white robe of Bowen Academy and carried a pile of items Xiao Ming…-
