Chapter 38
"Haha, I, Chu Yang, never speak falsehoods. If President Lei cannot trust me, we can sign a contract." Seeing Lei Jun’s skepticism, Chu Yang smiled and patted his arm.
Amidst a flash of silver light, Wang Yuanyuan vanished into thin air, and Cai’er likewise dissolved into the atmosphere in an instant.
The surrounding scent of blood pulled Li Hai back to his senses. Turning his head, he could not help but frown; in the time he had been lost in that marvelous sensation, such a major transformation had occurred around him.
"Thinking of Regnar?" Koldak asked, guessing the reason for Vira’s prolonged silence.
Although he had just received orders to engage in battle, there was little tension on his face. For one, he was not entirely clear about what had transpired above, and for another, to a veteran of six years, combat was no longer a stranger.
Those who had been frightened by the dragon’s formidable aura and fled into the cave only realized upon entering that it was surprisingly vast. Looking up, one saw only an expanse of emptiness and endless, impenetrable darkness, its depth unknown. Yet, they dared neither to advance nor to retreat.
However, the moment the vengeful spirit actually collided with the Holy Light Grass, Long Haochen was struck with great astonishment.
After the great war, Long Haochen’s prestige within the Temple Federation climbed to its zenith. He was universally acknowledged as the greatest hero in human history.
"Your subordinate understands the command." The general, having heard Li Yu’s instructions, truly could not fathom what kind of weapon this "rifle" he described might be. Thus, he had no choice but to follow Li Yu’s orders and carry them out.
I arrived at school as I always did, and although Ibuki Fuko was now by my side, nothing seemed different.
Lele, I clearly remember you crying that night when we parted ways after leaving West Lake. You said that departures should be a bit sorrowful so that they might be romantic. You also told me that if I missed you, I only needed to look up at the brightest star in the night sky, and you would feel my longing at that very same moment.
After speaking, before the two could recover their wits, Yang Yu’s figure vanished once more, darting away like a bolt of lightning toward the Gamma Empire.
The law energy and evil forces of the first level could not even compare to the third, let alone the Immortal Tomb.
The Violet-Eyed Flood Dragon swayed its massive head in a daze. Its gaze toward Mu Xifeng held a trace of trepidation, yet it did not retreat. Instead, it opened its maw and emitted a series of obscure, unintelligible sounds, seemingly chanting some form of incantation.
Yu Hao cheered, and as soon as Zhong Yue parked the car firmly by the roadside, the boy unbuckled his door and dashed toward the beautiful, colorful fountain.
Could this formidable character, who once turned the Ancient Fortress upside down and tore apart a Golden Core stage cultivator with his bare hands, really have such a gentle personality? Had the freak who once slaughtered Golden Core cultivators like pigs and dogs truly changed his nature?
"You lot, do you have tickets?" Just as they arrived at the South Gate, a guard pointed at Mu Xifeng and his two companions, asking in a lukewarm tone.
The city’s nightscape always appeared more magnificent and resplendent than by day. Ji Siming drove toward the circular overpass that shone like a cluster of stars. He hesitated for a moment, then exerted a slight force with his right hand, steering the car away from the loop leading home and speeding off to the left.
The two girls had hoped for the best, but even if they reached an impasse and desired this path, it was not for them to decide. I fear it will require a great deal of effort to maneuver through this.
The gaze in Tantai Qianling’s bright eyes appeared unfathomably deep, revealing a sense of inscrutable mystery.
Zhang Qingti felt a bit puzzled. Didn’t that sister-in-law dislike her? Why would she suddenly send a gift? Could it be that the kowtowing had left her feeling embarrassed?
"To hell with that! Is this any time for a battle?" Pan Yunbao cursed, yet his heart felt warm. His brothers could tell even the slightest shift in his mood and were so concerned for him. To have such brothers, even if they were dismissed as mere "fox friends and dog companions," he felt it was worth it.
Just then, a ripple appeared in the space not far from Wang Chen. Immediately following, a faint aura of purple-gold power drifted toward the disturbance. Before long, the purple-gold power made contact with the ripple, and the surrounding landscape instantly vanished, replaced by several thatched cottages.
Hoping to turn the tables, he had not expected to lose even more miserably than the last time. He said with frustration, "Your Majesty the Empress, I shall now request that His Majesty the King send the firearms to the Great Qing." I nodded with satisfaction.
This year’s autumn hunt could not be canceled as it had been the year before. The courtiers and nobles, having spent months tense due to the war in the west, desperately needed a grand feast to relax.
Wang Chen glanced casually at the curved blade belonging to the World-Destroyer. He recognized it; he had seen him wielding this very blade while fighting Li Xiaoyao in the illusion.
Following a burst of wild laughter, the Blood Fiend Giant transformed directly into a mist of blood. Carrying the suffocating, dense scent of blood from the surrounding islands, it streaked across the void, flying straight toward the direction of the Big Dipper Palace.
Seeing Xi Yan’s smiling eyes, I felt that being mocked by this fellow was nothing to worry about. Afterward, I, too, began to laugh.
"Haha..." At the thought of this, Wang Chen broke into a frenzied laugh. Meilin, who had been waiting for a long time, was startled by the mad laughter and grew alarmed. Thinking something had happened to Wang Chen, she hurriedly rushed toward the fourth floor in a panic.
"I say, brother, you only remember your big brother’s kindness, but what about me?" Pi Dan grumbled with dissatisfaction.
Afterward, the two said no more. Once the three had packed their belongings, they continued on their journey. Seven days later, the trio emerged into a lush, green jungle. Over the past week, they had seldom rested. Although they had encountered demonic beasts along the way, the three of them, working in unison, had not expended much effort.
