The scions of the various families, who already harbored grievances against Ji Tianyun, began to chime in one after another, condemning him.
Perhaps they would assume she had gone delirious from illness, bundle her off to a shamaness to have her exorcised, or simply burn her at the stake.
She looked back to see Jiang Chengyan sitting on the sofa, the corners of his mouth curled slightly upward, his expression softened by a touch of tenderness.
At the same time, chunks of soil and stone debris were sent flying by the impact; because he was standing too close, even Barnes himself could not escape unscathed.
"A god's inheritance site!" Bi Ji and Poseidon exclaimed. To think that the so-called Slaughter City was actually the inheritance site of a deity.
Unable to handle the stress, she broke down in a fit of hysterical sobbing and ran away, hiding in the tall grass where no one could find her.

At that moment, the Titan Giant Ape’s iron fist came crashing toward him. The blow carried the force of ten thousand jun, displacing the air with a thunderous roar, its wind whipping his hair into a frenzy.
In the instant that thought flickered through Zhao Lanzhi's mind, her gaze inadvertently fell upon Chu Yang, who was fast asleep on the sofa.
Whether due to fog or smog, the sky was overcast. Flecks of down drifted through the air, sometimes rising, sometimes falling, but never settling on the ground.

The most famous Gothic cathedral in G City was packed with people today. Police tape was strung up outside, and news vans from various outlets were tightly surrounding the area.
