Chapter 38

Chu Zhiqiu was puzzled—what was the man showing off for? If he were in the same group, he would still beat him into the dirt. Of course, that would have to wait until they actually crossed paths.

He knew the location of the Huang family estate well. After telling Wang Ying to keep an eye on his luggage, Lin Feng opened a spatial rift and appeared on the roof of the Huang residence.

Chu Zhiqiu felt quite uncomfortable with Bai Ling treating him this way; to him, she was an elder.

During their brief clash moments ago, he had realized the old man’s technique was unique, unlike anything he had ever seen before.

These thoughts were simple: he just found Meng Ziyan beautiful and shapely, and wanted to bed her.

As for his Spirit Clan, although they had no limit on their lifespans, once their numbers dropped below a certain threshold, the Heavenly Dao would naturally cause them to dwindle. Even so, due to constant suppression, his clan had never been able to become one of the great powers of the Divine Continent.

In truth, Xiao Ming was very clear that if Wu Zecheng could steady his mindset and engage in a head-on, one-on-one duel, he would at least not lose by much.

The guesthouse in Hangu County was mediocre, but at least it had bedding, the rooms weren't cave dwellings, and they were quite spacious. Even with the slightly dilapidated walls, it was worth the twenty yuan a day. The guesthouse featured a large courtyard with a canteen on the east side; Chu Zhiqiu ordered two steamed buns, a bowl of thin porridge, and a dish of pickled vegetables for just three yuan.

"Go on. Seven days of solitary confinement. Think hard about exactly what you did wrong," Leng Yue said, her attitude icy.

After speaking, Yang Feng suddenly tilted his head back, pouring the wine from the bottle into his mouth in large gulps.

"Pah." He pointed his long spear forward; the spearhead had long since flown off the broken shaft.

The nine-second cooldown was a waste of experience from many monsters, but no one cared much, as they knew that clearing out all the monsters here would yield far more experience than spending an entire day hunting high-level monsters elsewhere.

"The Undying Sect Master is just finished like this?" Fatty Gao knew Qin Zheng had been killed, but he still found it hard to believe that the man who had once stirred the world into chaos had died at his own hands.

The official ship docked first, followed closely by the merchant ship. "Chun Niang," Chen Dongsheng was the first to pop his head out; he waved at Lady Lin, haggard and visibly agitated.

Upon getting closer, she saw clearly that the place where the corpse appeared was a wide cavern. Because the water near the cave entrance was churning violently from side to side, it had created the illusion that the corpse was crawling out of the rock wall.

Hearing this, Yi Qiu answered directly, but as he spoke, he seemed to recall something. His gaze tightened, and with a hint of uncertainty, he looked at Luo Chen and asked tentatively.

The Supreme Elder was like a pillar supporting the sky for the Qi family; any word he spoke could determine the family's fate. Before this, Qi Lianshan was certain that the Supreme Elder’s attitude toward the imperial family would never be so accommodating.

It was precisely because of this immense mental power that Andy could confidently take everything.

"Zhongkang, have the men make more straw effigies. We will need them when we leave tomorrow. Keep it secret." After sitting for a long time, Dong Zhuo remembered something else and whispered instructions to Xu Chu beside him.

Zheng Zhilong paced anxiously; as a seasoned old sea dog, he knew all too well how perilous the war situation he faced truly was.

Superman’s explanation was quite pertinent. The pressure Apokolips placed on Earth was simply too great; if they could take precautions, why shouldn't they?

In this era, children of ten or so already understood the concept of death, so upon hearing the news, they broke down in tears where they stood.

The second day of the Lunar New Year was traditionally for visiting the mother's side of the family, but since the Lady of Rongguo had passed away, Li Yue decided to spend the day keeping her mother company.

Because the western mine had not been excavated for a long time, it had become a barren hill. Although there were some weeds and shrubs, most appeared withered and yellow, looking distinctly malnourished.

Outside, Qingxi finally finished chanting the complex demonic summoning spell, but there was no reaction; no demons appeared.

"Are you playing with me? You know I must have it!" The man’s tone was tinged with anger.

Yinzi had dug many wild vegetables that day and was just about to head down the mountain when she caught the scent of perfume. Her nose was sharp, and she immediately sensed someone was coming. She looked around, but could see no one.

The atmosphere was clearly serious and tense, yet after Lin Shuangjiang said that, the fear of the Wind Demon Wolf in their hearts faded significantly.

Every emotion Han Shi experienced and felt seemed to have its negative aspects vanish, with the remainder all dissolving into his performance.

Regarding the safety of every future disciple in the sect, the Wuji Sect would absolutely not be careless.

After this collision, the tail did not strike again; it likely realized the opponent's body was even stronger than its own, and if it came to a contest of raw physicality, it would undoubtedly be at a disadvantage.

Xue Li had initially wanted to admit it, but looking at her teary eyes, the word "no" swirled in his throat, yet all that came out was "not exactly."

The entire night sky was pitch black, as if the heavens themselves were creating the perfect environment for this bloody battle.

After speaking, I stood up first and walked through the gaps between the kneeling people. Qiu Feng and the others followed closely behind me. As I passed, I briefly counted those kneeling—there were over a hundred. Seeing the obsessed expressions on their faces, I had no idea what evil magic they had fallen under.

He had felt all day that the weather was fine and his mood was good; accordingly, his luck should have been good too. Yet, it seemed the reality was not so.

"But the magma men there are terrifying! We will be beaten to death!" Yalaona shook his head cautiously.

"This... Senior Wuming, if the Star Ring acknowledges me as its master, what benefits will I get?" Lin Tian did not hesitate and asked directly about the rewards.

The room suddenly became as bright as day, whereas previously, because many Thousand-Spirit Herbs were planted within the Hundred-Herb Garden, the room had mostly been shrouded in darkness.

Nian Liang sneered, "Give it away? To whom? Now that there are people from the eldest branch in the capital." Lady Tong had usurped the nest, occupying the position of the eldest branch, and wanted to give nothing in return—it wasn't going to be that easy.

Qiu Feng was stunned for a moment, as if he hadn't understood my words, so I repeated, "Take her home. This monster currently doesn't harm people, but if she stays outside and encounters someone with malicious intent, the consequences will be troublesome."
