Volume One, Chapter 38: Are You Being Sarcastic?
At the end of the day, everyone is playing with some sort of cheat, and it just so happens that Li Dalong’s cheat is even more powerful than Young Master Zhao’s.
The reason for driving Xi Fuwei away is obvious: they were afraid her presence at Fenzi Tower would interfere with the Yao family’s plans.
I looked at the fair-skinned, delicate person and nodded, though I wondered, does this ending truly make everyone happy?
“I am a prince of the noble Tang Imperial Clan, yet I am locked up here, not allowed to leave or even move about! Hmph!” Tang Buhuan complained, deeply displeased.
However, when he previously encountered two SSS-class evolved beasts, he was severely wounded; if not for the timely support of Wang Momo and the others, he might have been killed by those two creatures.
“Young General, Miss Mo requests an audience,” a soldier under Qin Yang’s command reported from outside the cell.
It is easy to lull twenty thousand super-powered individuals into a peaceful sleep, and just as easy to pull them into Xiao Songxu’s dream world.
As SSS-class entities, they are well-versed in all major events occurring across the Beast World and the other realms it occupies.
Chen Tianyu slowly picked up the pistol from the first box. The moment he held it, he felt a warm current surge into his body, and his previously weak frame was instantly filled with infinite strength.
“Right, we share the same thought. And why would they build it anywhere else but the center of the lake? A small rock formation like that wouldn't be enough; it must be hidden beneath the water,” I said.
This ring is meant to be sold to the mortal world. Mortals lack magical protection, and their mental capacity is insufficient to sustain a full "Deep Blue Swamp" spell, so this simplified version is actually more suitable.
After the crowd moved away, Zhou Sitong looked at Chen Yuan beside her, her beautiful eyes shimmering with a sudden, gentle warmth.
She was quite surprised that her roommate had become so unexpectedly entangled with this "story."
Azaza was thrilled; the moment to demonstrate his courtship abilities had finally arrived, and he was determined to let Sang Ruo see his worth this time.
On the adjacent lane, lines of medical personnel in white coats carried critically injured patients toward the ambulances in the distance.
He moved as if competing against a master from the peak era of the martial arts world centuries ago, back when masters pursued the ultimate realm of combat, imbuing their every gesture with such profound, inscrutable meaning.
Azaza sensed the lingering aura of Sang Ruo. It was faint, but he could finally detect a trace—it seemed Sang Ruo had stopped here, though he had already left some time ago.
Standing up and brushing off the dirt, Zhou Feng approached the spirit horse to try again, but each attempt resulted in an even worse tumble.
Chen Yuan nodded. Since the other party had made their position so clear, he could no longer insist. After all, he couldn't really expect to follow them to Mount Shu just to get medicine, could he?
In Jiangnan, there is no shortage of skilled doctors, but those who are as selfless as Mo Li are rare, making it hard not to respect him.
With the chirping of cicadas, a gentle breeze, and dancing tree shadows, the group was unaware that their every move was being watched by someone in the crowded civilian entrance just across the central gate.
As soon as he entered, Xiao Xiao discovered the interior was entirely metallic, made of a dark brown material he had never seen before. Inside was a long, horizontal corridor, at the end of which stood a massive iron door.
He coughed until tears streamed down his face, leaning one hand on his knee while grabbing the water from Jian Yan’s hand with the other, gulping it down greedily.
In truth, Huang Yu didn't care about me much; it was just that her gaze had softened, and she had added a few more verbal greetings.
Most importantly, there was a repulsive force in the void, pushing Qin Feng away from entering it.
He lazily threw the stick in his hand to the ground, where it struck the shards of porcelain with a jarring, grating sound.
The two set up the grill together, and after Tang Ya took out the charcoal and placed it on the ground, Xiao Xiao checked the seasonings and started a fire to roast the rabbit. Before long, a hot and fragrant roasted rabbit was ready.
While they told everyone the fingerprint expert would arrive in three days, the expert had actually boarded the vehicle that very day, lulling White Fox into a false sense of security by letting him believe he had two days to prepare.
The moon was like a silver platter, and the dark night sky was filled with twinkling stars. Suspended high above, the silver moon cast a faint glow, draping the earth in a veil of silver and making everything appear extraordinarily mysterious.
Jian Yan used immense patience to coax him, yet the other party showed no appreciation, acting as if he harbored deep-seated hatred and spewing such mocking, biting words that anyone would have been enraged to hear them.
Zong Zheng remained his usual self, expressionless, giving off a cold, distant vibe. He looked at Ling Xiao with sharp, piercing eyes.
His original plan had been to use Tian Bingfu’s reputation in the northern mountains to intimidate the other party, but he hadn't expected them to have even more formidable backing. This disruption of his plans was truly a stroke of bad luck.
After Jiang Ziya returned to the military camp, he remained still. Three days later, Primordial Heavenly Lord struck decisively.
“You surname Ling, you are spouting blood! Haven't you harmed me enough? Now you come to frame me again—your heart is so rotten it’s oozing pus!” Mu Wanyin couldn't help but curse.
Bi Yu did not go down the mountain; she leaned against an ancient tree on the peak, gazing at the rolling sea of clouds beneath her.
Zhao Junjie looked calmly at the sleeping crowd, then intensified the white light in his hands, though he knew he couldn't hold on much longer.
Di Xin did not speak. Since they had come, he would accept them. He would wait and see what mood the Primordial Heavenly Lord was in. As for his disciple becoming one of his own—though it seemed Shen Gongbao had already severed ties with the Primordial Heavenly Lord.
However, those angels from earlier were likely here for that so-called Son of God! According to the villagers, the child was named Yale.
Seeing that everyone around was silent, Ming Hong quickly tried to smooth things over, though the situation felt quite awkward at this point.
Lin Meiling fell silent. Although she said nothing, she surely understood Ling Xiao’s good intentions by now.
“My father is actually at home today, but he was just called away by my mother. Please sit for a moment; they will be here shortly,” Bai Yunqi said courteously.
Officers Hu and Wang had never expected such a simple matter to hide such deep secrets. They couldn't help but feel guilty for initially defying Zhou Weihua, and from that point on, they were completely won over, looking at Zhou Weihua with the same respect and obedience they would show their true superior.
Amidst the nervousness of Lan Jian and the others, the calmness of You Yue, and the focus of Qi Wei as he shaved, black dots gradually appeared on the distant horizon. As the dots grew larger, they revealed themselves to be the spirit beasts that had previously besieged them.
