044. In Search of the Evil of Shibuya

The awkward atmosphere in the office did not last long.

A series of knocks soon came from outside.

Bai Zhongmingzi hurried to her feet and said quietly to Anli Tou, “I’ve brought Yuki here.”

Yuki Kotone...

Anli Tou repeated the guest’s name silently.

He had a deep impression of the mysterious high school girl he had escorted home.

Compared with the other few, who because of the town...

Although he knew clearly that this was not Huangchen’s complete descent, perhaps merely a manifestation of his will breaking through the barriers between realms, it was still an existence he could never hope to oppose.

Dao Dian seemed to have been waiting for me for a long time. I was astonished. When we parted yesterday, it had already been late at night, and this morning I had taken the very first train. How could he still have arrived before me?

“All right, lie down for a while. I’ll go back to my room and get you a pill. Once you take it and sleep, you’ll be fine.” Mao Mao spoke to Wang Yin with complete seriousness.

An hour later, Ye Chen had recovered to his peak condition. However, despite having regained his full strength, he had not yet awakened. Instead, he continued cultivating.

It had to be understood that political officers wielded immense authority over the supervision of the army; even the commanding officer was forbidden to interfere.

Everything the middle-aged man named Tru did carried the shadow of some form of combat technique. He was probably quite skilled, but only in the sense that an ordinary person could be considered skilled.

“An excellent name.” Yue Lin gave a slight nod, then suddenly raised his right hand and violently thrust it into his own chest.

Xiwei spun around, only to discover that the surrounding space had suddenly become soft and viscous. A movement he normally made instinctively now required all his strength to complete with difficulty.

And you’re still worrying about how to increase the number of walking corpses? Don’t you know that the surviving humans across the entire world dream of wiping out every last walking corpse and restoring humanity’s rule?

The white radiance had completely isolated them, turning the area into a battlefield containing only the Mother Goddess’s consciousness and the two Grotto-Heaven cultivators.

Zhao Yan had come right to his door. To avoid humiliation, Chucks refused to meet Zhao Yan’s gaze, afraid of seeing that smug look in his eyes.

Fan Li could not help but rejoice upon hearing this. He knew that it was a good thing they were willing to serve him. Moreover, because Sima Yi did not trust Wei’s famous generals, he had no choice but to promote newcomers. Promoting newcomers was an extremely risky venture. If everything went smoothly, there was no problem, but once setbacks arose, most newcomers proved unreliable.

“Li Mu, are you all right?” Mu Xue grasped Li Mu’s hand. Sensing his unease, she thought for a moment, then blushed and embraced him, offering him comfort.

In an instant, Lin Hai connected the Three Treasures with the empire’s super-families and suddenly understood. Of course, that was all.

With my current level of eleven, I had only ranked eighty-seventh in China. I truly had no idea how the eighty-six big brothers and sisters ahead of me had managed to level so quickly. Still, it did not matter. I was only here to strike it rich, not to contend for supremacy over the world.

A martial grandmaster was someone who combined the techniques of many martial arts and forged a path of his own. Every word and action embodied his martial spirit. He would never submit and never fear. His combat strength was twice, or even several times, that of an ordinary grandmaster.

I sighed and turned to sit beneath the city wall. The Blood-Red Sword rested at an angle beside my leg, while Murong Shanshan crouched down as well, hugging her snow-white legs and silently watching me.

“Colonel Smoker! We found an unconscious villager in the center of the village. According to the doctor, he appears to have suffered a mental shock that triggered an instinctive bodily defense. It is not serious; he should regain consciousness after two days of rest.” A young marine saluted behind Smoker and delivered his report clearly.

Although some servants occasionally pointed at her behind her back and whispered among themselves, Lanxi did not care. Was it not merely one office rumor?
