Take her cultivation technique for myself. Awesome! I'm already invincible! ———————— Years later, Yan Yu, who had earned the title of "the strongest," was interviewed on television: Host: To whom do you want to give thanks for your success today? Yan Yu: I'd like to thank a very important woman to me. Host (eyes lighting up): Oh, is she your wise and virtuous wife? Yan Yu: No, consider her a stepping stone, I suppose. Host (wiping sweat): Then... what about the other members of your team? They must have helped you as well, right? Yan Yu: ... How could there possibly be only one stepping stone on the path to godhood?

"Get your hands off me!" she wrestled against my grip, so I held her even tighter. "Put this on!" I groaned, toiling to keep her in place and wishing again I’d worn the damn gloves. The feel of her warm skin under my arm and palm wasn’t helping my focus. "I'm not taking you home like this!" "You don't tell me what to do!" she snapped, thrashing to break free of my hold as I fumbled with the cloak in my other hand, trying to drape it over her bare shoulders. "I'm not going home! Let me go, I said!" "Did you really think I got you out of there just to let you wander the streets, almost naked, like a lunatic?" That stopped her. "What did you call me?!" "LU-NA-TIC." "You... You…! Take your hands off me, you insolent brute!" Enraged, she yanked her arm too abruptly and lost her balance. I caught her, wrapped her in the cloak, and threw her over my shoulder. "PUT ME DOWN!" She shrieked and flailed, but I ignored her, making my way to the Commander’s house, which, thanks to Braa, was only two streets away. Since the entire population was in the square for the ridiculous festival, no one intervened at the frantic cries of the wild creature. No wonder in the ten years I've known the Commander, I've never heard that he has a daughter. She must’ve been kept locked away. Strangely, she suddenly went still and quiet. Had she grown tired, worried about attracting attention, or finally realized how inappropriate it was to show up at her parents' doorstep in this state? She didn’t seem to care before. With every step, my anxiety grew—she was limp. "Hey!" No answer. Seriously?! "Hey, you!" Nothing. A bad feeling crept over me, so I pulled her off my shoulder and into my arms. Her head fell against my chest—unconscious. "Hey! Hey, you!" I shook her, but she didn’t react. Panic surged through me. Had she fainted? Had I held her too tight? Lifting her more securely, I sprinted toward the Commander's house.

How do you survive when you have nothing? How far would you go to stay alive? Would you be willing to sell or buy the unthinkable? Would you compromise your morals just to survive? What would you do if everything you thought you knew about yourself and your limits was put to the test?

“Why do you always say that I am devious and cunning, and that I am a double-crosser, and that I am cruel and vicious, and that I do nothing wrong? I must solemnly correct you, this is called wisdom and strategy!” “Does it matter? What position tonight? Or do you mean, rotate them all over again?” “Oooh ......” The once adopted daughter, student, sister, and disciple have now each become the leader of a power number...

Hello guys, let me tell you all a story that I hope serves as a warning and a lesson. On December 2nd, I made an online investment of $90,000 USD, convinced by the promises of high returns. They made everything seem so easy. They made me feel as though I was the one calling all the shots, making every decision, and monitoring the market. At first, things looked great—my money even doubled. I was on top of the world. But then, one night, I requested a withdrawal of $20,000. I remember clearly, I went to bed thinking everything was in order. But when I woke up in the middle of the night, I checked my account and noticed that the funds hadn’t been transferred. I thought it was a simple delay, but when I checked my account the next morning, I received an email stating that I had insufficient funds and could not withdraw anything. Even worse, the email claimed that I had somehow closed all my positions at a loss overnight. Like, seriously? I was shocked and couldn’t believe what I was reading. I hadn’t closed any positions at all. In fact, I hadn’t made any changes to my account. I was left confused, frustrated, and feeling completely helpless. I didn’t know who to trust anymore or what to do. That's when I decided to do some thorough research. I started looking into ways to recover my money, but I was cautious because I had already been duped once. After digging deeper, I came across a recommendation for Cyber Constable Intelligence. At first, I was skeptical—after all, I’d been burned before—but after reading some reviews and understanding how they operated, I decided to give them a chance. I contacted Cyber Constable Intelligence, and honestly, I couldn’t be more relieved. From the moment I reached out, I felt like I was in good hands. They were professional, transparent, and most importantly, they didn’t ask for any upfront payment. They walked me through the entire process and kept me updated every step of the way. Thanks to their expertise and persistence, I was able to get my $20,000 back, along with the peace of mind that I had been missing for so long. Cyber Constable Intelligence completely changed my perspective on fund recovery agents. They’re not like the scammers I encountered before. They’re trustworthy and genuinely care about helping people. If you’ve been in a similar situation, I highly recommend reaching out to them. They know what they’re doing, and they won’t let you down.

When you have felt the warmth of a mothers protective embrace. Along with living in a safe haven carved by your father's blood, sweat, and tears.

Where life is but a mere string that could break at any moment; where danger lurks in the places you least expect it to. What would you do to keep your loved ones safe and happy?

“Really, God? You didn’t answer my sincere prayers when I wanted to be rich… but the one time I joked about living in a novel, you actually listened? Unbelievable.” — Maverick isn’t anyone special—just a guy with a normal life who loves reading online novels as a hobby. Then, after a train accident, he wakes up somewhere both familiar and strange:—a dark, twisted version of the fantasy novel he barely bothered to finish. As if waking up as a side character wasn’t bad enough, he quickly discovers a grim twist: he’s now a half-vampire in a world where vampires are hated, hunted, and feared. Surrounded by enemies on all sides, Maverick has to navigate dangerous vampire rogue clans, a secretive hunter organization, and his own family, who would kill him if they knew the truth. Oh, and let’s not forget the mysterious system that seems more interested in throwing him into life-or-death missions than actually helping him survive. Can Maverick keep his identity hidden, find his way in a world he hardly knows, and maybe—just maybe—outsmart both fate and his bloodthirsty new “family”? Or will the role of a side character be his doom?
