Chapter 56: This Daughter Possesses Great Strength

Jiang Daming was speechless. Just a single fish, and he wanted to trade it for his carefully tended Dyer's Woad? In his wildest dreams... well, it wasn't completely out of the question.

*Slurp~*

Though he had slaughtered a chicken just yesterday, who could ever resist such a plump and fine fish?

"Alright, how many do you need? Uncle will dig them up for you right now," Jiang Daming said, immediately picking up the hoe leaning against the wall.

"Would one hundred roots be enough?" Qin Xiaoyu asked.

"Only a hundred?"

Jiang Daming was somewhat taken aback.

"I don't even know why myself. At first, I wanted to blackmail you, but when the higher-ups of the Earth Sect found out, they actually treated your parents with the utmost hospitality. I found it strange too, but there is one goal we share: we both want you dead. Hehe, are you satisfied with this answer?"

Clang... Aww... A brilliant azure flame descended from the sky. Caught off guard, the Demonic Dragon failed to retract its massive claws in time, and a section of its phalanges was sheared right off by the blade-light of the Dragon-Slaying Saber.

With that, everyone chose the posture they found most comfortable to lie down in, chatting away aimlessly about everything under the sun, drifting off to sleep naturally when they grew tired. Soon, the sound of snoring rose up as the massive beastly bodies stretched out in the cold wind, and the people fell into a deep and sweet slumber.

Pushing open the bedroom door, Li Shaoyu saw Ximen Qing sitting squarely in the middle of the courtyard like a guardian deity, and could not help but chuckle dumbfoundedly.

"Alright, let's trust him. I'll suspend my control over his physical body right now and let him control it himself. Tell him that if he dares any tricks, we will use every means at our disposal to torture him, leaving him wishing for death without the release of dying!" Wang Anxian said decisively.

"I've seen her before. Where was it?" Di Feng racked his brain in an intense effort to remember, but that section of his memories seemed marred by vast blanks, making it difficult to form a clear impression.

"Hehe, that might not be the case. But rest assured, with our level of cultivation, ordinary fortunes are hardly enough to move our hearts. Still, if there really is something genuinely good, it wouldn't be a bad idea for us to take it back to our clan for our descendants to use," the man with fleshy swellings on his face said with a smile.

"Everything is right here. These are all materials for crafting magical artifacts. I beg the hero to spare our lives!" the disciples pleaded frantically.

Duan Yu thought frantically, searching for a solution, when a bizarre idea suddenly popped into his head: his sea of consciousness was immensely powerful. As long as he concentrated his spiritual power in a single place, the monster's spiritual power would be temporarily unable to break through his soul, allowing him to launch a counterattack.

"Boss Lazy Dragon, I've finally found you! Come on, let's go find a place and have a few drinks together!" Zhang Jiujin said as he dragged Lazy Dragon toward the vehicle.

Lei Yu's true form stepped into his inner realm, his eyes flashing with a sharp brilliance as if capable of piercing through everything. That crimson light darted wildly about within the inner realm, leaving behind a brilliant tail of fire. Only when the flames subsided slightly did its true form become clear.

"Only I was left behind in the cave. Looking at the mummified corpses beside me, I felt an overwhelming terror. When I finally managed to pull myself together, I saw that bone disc, which was devoid of luster at the time. I don't know what came over me, but I picked it up," Wu Yong said, gazing at Lu Yu.

As the most anticipated figure in Group Five, Fang Juxiang took the lead, horse and all, charging toward the long racetrack. Yet the closer he drew to the Demon-Locking Pagoda, the more everyone noticed that his footsteps were growing heavier and his speed was slowing down.

Entering Xuanji City, Liu Tuo was deeply astonished. The city was built against the mountain, and its gates resembled a colossal celestial palace, thrusting straight into the heavens like a sharp sword radiating a keen edge, enclosing a vast and boundless territory within.

Combining Hua Tuo's memories with the comprehensive encyclopedia of kidney disease treatments, Qin Junxiu firmly believed he would be able to cure Qian Xiang's mother.

"It is I. I wonder if my identity as Erlang Yang Jian is sufficient to invite you all here? If not, this general will have to resort to other means to compel you to grace us with your presence." Yang Jian shook his spear, golden light flashing as two bladelets popped out from the tip, transforming the weapon into a long halberd.
