Volume 1, Chapter 45: Yunxi Is a Treasure Bestowed by the Heavens
This halo is a common sword-aura technique used by sword cultivators. Condensing pure sword qi into a ring, it looks like a simple circle, but in reality, the sword qi is arranged according to a specific pattern, and anyone who touches it without knowing the truth will die instantly. Although this technique is common, Li Tian casting dozens of rings all at once vividly demonstrates his extraordinary capability.
To put it frankly, at this moment he was completely helpless, and had no idea what else he ought to say. The situation before his eyes was truly not what he had hoped to see, yet he was utterly powerless to do anything more.
Walking up the brightly lit stairs, Emilia suddenly spoke up again, her tone sounding somewhat depressed.
The players completely boiled over, with wave after wave of continuous discussion instantly turning the entire entrance of the auction house into a bustling vegetable market, making for an extraordinarily lively scene.
Nanwuxiang was at a critical stage in his cultivation and could not come out of seclusion, while Mu Xueqing was unconscious and unable to command the battle.
Huayin also opened her eyes wide, staring at the announcement in disbelief. In the Federal Era, where the inflation rate was exceptionally low, one hundred million federal credits possessed a purchasing power far stronger than the currency of the previous century, amounting to much more than just a few properties.
"Not talking, are you?" With that, Lu Qi's mouth curled into a wicked smile. He pulled a dagger from one of the assassins and, with fierce momentum, plunged it into the leg of another assassin. Immediately, another miserable scream rang out.
On the third day of Uneg's resolve to leave Fog Rose Town, he had already quietly repaired the Indefinite Flying Skiff. Using the one hundred fire agate coins left behind by Cage, he purchased a map of the Star Orchid Ancient Continent and stocked up on enough rations for the journey, ready to set sail with the wind at any moment.
Seeing the scene, Butterfly Dream's Enchanting Words frowned slightly, because each fork in the path was shrouded in a layer of black mist, filling her with a sense of unease—a kind of black mist that had never existed during the closed beta testing period.
Su Jiu waved her hand and said, "You don't need to thank me, just thank Yunyue." Afterwards, she instructed the maidservant to lead them away.
Wang Yueru watched Xia Mingfeng's retreating back, a fleeting glint of icy coldness flashing through her eyes before vanishing instantly, replaced once more by a warm smile on her face.
"Puff!" The instant the blood-red flowers scattered, Kaba Yuan felt a tightness in his throat, and a stream of blood spilled from the corners of his mouth, causing his figure to stall momentarily. The very second his movement paused, Zhao Ming had already charged forward, his ferocious fist striking directly against Kaba Yuan's body, the formidable force sending Kaba Yuan flying backward.
Once and twice, but never a third or fourth time. Unless driven to a desperate, life-or-death extremity, Ye Zhuo had no desire to ever repeat such a hazardous gamble.
I had no idea what those two brothers were up to, but I had no mood to inquire; my mind was solely set on taking the Universe Saber and heading to Ancient Banyan Village.
It was precisely because of this mindset that Ye Zhuo hadn't immediately connected the reason for being blocked to this matter. Yet, right now, that was precisely the case, and what was blocking his path was actually that massive banyan tree within the ancestral grounds of the Xiangli clan. For a moment, Ye Zhuo could not figure out what on earth had transpired to trigger such a transformation.
Following Yun Yu's gaze, he saw that a little over a hundred zhang away, a patch of cyan mist was churning to form a hazy fog, within which a dark-cyan, frigid pool was revealed.
Seeing that this person kept his lips sealed and asking further would simply be a waste of breath, Ye Zhuo very sensibly fell silent. Whether he was considered a brave hero was one thing, but the principle of not suffering immediate losses was something Ye Zhuo understood better than anyone else. Should he anger either of these two with a few words and end up getting beaten up, it would truly be an unjust grievance.
Filled with curiosity, Yun Yu picked up a piece to study it, only to feel that the stone was intensely cold, far colder even than the water in the river. It seemed that the extreme chill of this crystalline river was largely related to these black stones.
Seeing the massive light hand containing boundless might dissipate within the array formation, Yun Yu did not feel even a sliver of relaxation in his heart.
Yan Tan nodded, closed the lid of the clay pot, and began to tidy up the accumulated items in the kitchen, putting the meat and vegetables into the refrigerator. As for the abundance of greens, he simply sorted them roughly and placed them in the crisper box.
The emperor turned and sat down on the bed. Su Su hurriedly leaned down to kneel and remove his boots. The ink stains smeared on her sleeve had not been wiped clean, and inadvertently brushed against the bright yellow trouser leg. Su Su felt a wave of panicked anxiety, her face flushing red and turning pale by turns, self-reproach and vexation instantly filling her entire chest. The more anxious she grew, the more mistakes she made.
"You really are thoughtful, have it your way then. However, Su Su, I will definitely go beg the Fifth Prince for help with your matter. If you don't agree, then I'll just go find Master Gu," Xing'er said with a resolute tone, leaving no room for turnaround between her words.
Qiao Qing thought about it and decided it made sense. She turned her fist into an open palm and rested it on his shoulder. "Hmph..." The sound was soft and completely devoid of any threat.
"Wait for me outside. If an hour passes and I haven't come out from inside, you two go in and look for me," Yanyu turned back and instructed the two of them.
"Kebei, Elder Sister is doing all this for your own good. Why must you always be so disobedient?" Han Lianyi felt a profound sense of helplessness. She was doing it all for the sake of her younger sister, so why couldn't she just be a bit more obedient and give her some peace of mind?
The place where the long whip hung was covered in blood, and beneath Young Master Li's body were mottled patches of blood as well. The moment the door was pushed open, a heavy, pungent stench of blood assailed the senses.
Gu Ling'er glanced sideways at Long Linfei, a faint smile blooming on her face. She gently lowered her trouser legs, slowly stepped off the bed, and walked toward the door.
However, the styling of this wood carving was exceptionally graceful, and the Guanyin's facial features were lifelike. The surface of the wood carving possessed a quiet, deep sheen; holding it in the hand, it felt smooth, pleasing to the touch, and rich with a thick patina, exuding a gentle, aged charm that imparted a profound sense of the vicissitudes of time.
Yet Sisina had already flown into a frenzy. Tearing off her bathrobe, she leaped forward like a high-platform diver, crashing straight down onto the soft, plush bed.
