The moment I opened my eyes the next day, the train had already stopped at the Luoyang railway station. Peering out through the window, good heavens, Li Er was already shaking hands with the local officials. Did no one remember that there was still a "VIP" on the train who needed to be called?
"Jong-kook-hyung, with you making such a terrifying expression, anyone would think you are blaming Zae-hyun-hyung and Tae-hee-noona," Lee Kwang-soo said to Kim Jong-kook in a condemning tone.
Old Cheng's result was even better. After the three of them finished shaving their heads, they joked with each other while touching their stubble, waiting for Li Er's outcome to be released.
"Holy King? What on earth is going on here? How could the Old Daoist appear in this place?" Upon seeing Zhang Tiandao appear, Supreme Lao Jun asked in a fluster.

"General Hulü, the preceding battle lines have been breached and cannot be held back. If we do not withdraw our troops now, the central army will also be impacted, and by then we will be unable to form a proper battle formation and will face a crushing defeat," a subordinate commander reminded the commanding general.
Major and middle-sized sects, more or less, already knew the reason for the disappearance of their disciples. Although some sects refused to believe it when they first heard the news, once the Brocade Guard laid out the evidence, they had no choice but to believe it.
This therefore trained the imperial physicians in a wonderfully astonishing pharmaceutical technique—knowing precisely how much medicine to use for which illness. Many imperial physicians could even achieve absolute precision without the slightest deviation. For them, a single minor mistake could forfeit their lives.
This meant that if conditions were right in various aspects, such as having a sufficient number of instructors, Su Yi would definitely open even more Tianzun Martial Arts Schools instead of merely adding one thousand five hundred of them. This was certain, and it was indeed what he had planned.
Subsequently, the flames of war reached Schalke's doorstep once again, as Podolski's left-footed shot from the left side of the penalty box was saved by Zhang Chong. The two sides played with zero structure, descending into complete and utter chaos against chaos. It was simply because Schalke's overall capability still far surpassed their opponents that their attacking prowess remained considerably higher.

The handwriting on the blank paper appeared line by line, and then vanished line by line, looking as though Zeng Chujian were sitting at the desk, writing and drawing on the blank paper, pouring out the innermost feelings of the text.
