Volume 1, Chapter 61: Clearing the Back Courtyard for Yunxi

I must admit, Hou Yi’s achievements truly shocked Li Shaofan, because none of these details were recorded in the battle reports, which only listed the number of casualties, tactical successes, and a series of other standard figures.

The human race… their starting point is inferior to the beings of the celestial and nether realms, yet they are often the ones who climb to the very pinnacle.

This is a ruthless fellow who will stop at nothing to achieve his goals. If one does not put in the effort to thoroughly study such a formidable character, the one who suffers in the end will undoubtedly be oneself. Li Shaofan had a profound appreciation of this truth.

Chu Tian also noticed the uneasiness on their faces. In truth, he was also worried about what might happen on the island while he was away. Mu Borui’s sudden arrival likely had another purpose besides the auction. He was afraid that Mu Borui might suddenly strike at the island the moment he left.

In less than ten seconds, these corpses turned into a puff of blue smoke and completely dissipated between heaven and earth; even the bloodstains on the ground were cleaned away without a trace.

However, this time he did not take a single step back. The moment his spiritual sense entered, it instantly locked onto the spatial illusion beast that was reaching out its hand.

At this moment, he was the one wielding the Infinity Stones, making him the only one who could decide the method and the approach.

Ebony Maw realized this, but he did not have the leisure to wait for Stephen Strange to reach his limit. He merely ordered Master Wong and the others to keep watch here while he went to acquire the other Infinity Stones.

Having participated in two inner court trials and narrowly escaped death both times, Lu Mu and Yang Bing finally entered the inner court with late-stage cultivation, becoming members of the inner court disciples. Liang Yu accidentally learned of this during a chance encounter with Liang Xue.

"Phew, I can finally sleep." Letting out a long yawn, Zheng Yi didn't even bother to take off his clothes.

The sun in the sky revealed its face once more, and the scorching heat enveloped the continent once again. Yet, in the hearts of Hart and his companions, there was only a chilling emptiness. If those arrogant dragon clans hadn't inexplicably withdrawn from the battlefield, wouldn't their side have suffered even greater losses?

"Let, let me go! You monster!" The military commander was hauled out of his staff car by Alex with a single hand. He flailed his limbs in mid-air, cursing and shouting at the top of his lungs, only to be met with the other's expressionless, tilted glance.

"What? The two of you have heard of him?" Liu Xin clearly knew nothing about Lin Xiaoxiao's affairs and cast a surprised look at the two of them.

"Good, let's take this chance to shatter this turtle's shell in one go! Take this!" Xiao Menghui nodded. Two massive meteor hammers materialized in her hands, and her abundant physical strength allowed her to wield this nearly one-hundred-kilogram lethal weapon with ferocious momentum.

"Is that so?" Quan said skeptically. She certainly didn't believe Zheng Yi would act so relaxed; men frequently put on a brave front, didn't they?

Twice in succession, Qin Tang had made such exorbitant bids only to pull back at the very last moment. It really looked somewhat like he was maliciously driving up the price.

With these words, Liu Yansong pulled a treasured sword, which he had seized from Lü Yuangia, from his waist, and casually waved his hand to toss it toward Elder Bo's direction.

Liu Yansong sheathed his sword, feeling no urge to interrupt Pan Jianyi and Su Jingshuo's abnormal behavior.

After making sure there was no one nearby, all the Qi soldiers split into two teams and flew toward the two high-rise buildings on the far west side. To the east of each of these two high-rises stood another two high-rises.

Senior Brother Murong had deliberately left to have some private space with Sister Yan, yet she had foolishly blundered in and interrupted the two of them.

To my surprise, the two researchers in this laboratory removed their masks to reveal a deep blue eye planted in the middle of their foreheads. They possessed no spiritual or Buddhist energy of their own, yet at this moment, they were pressing in toward me.

However, poverty gave birth to an unyielding resilience toward life and also made people deeply passionate about living. Everyone struggled and hustled for a living; the people on East Street all did odd jobs and intricate manual labor for the businesses on Central Street.

Two massive currents of air collided in mid-air, and in an instant, energy capable of destroying heaven and earth scattered in all directions. The entire grand hall was now completely ruined. Leiqi was struck by the powerful impact, and the pale blue barrier protected her as she fell toward the lawn outside the hall.

Wang Xu put away the Heavenly Dragon Sword, and the dragon spirit picked up Wang Xu in its jaws, landing on the open ground. After setting Wang Xu down, it burrowed back into the dragon ball.

Previously, his entire focus had been on Leiqi and the Storm Blade, leaving him unable to attend to Bai Yao's sudden onslaught. Before he could react, having gathered only sixty percent of his strength, he traded a punch head-on with Bai Yao. He was sent flying fiercely, his entire arm aching as if it were about to split open, breaking him out in a cold sweat.

"Big Brother," Sheng Beijin raised his voice, "the villa has been blown up, and we couldn't find Sister-in-law. She might already be dead." He didn't dare to state it as a certainty, using only the word 'might' as if leaving a final glimmer of hope for Sheng Beixian.

"Something happened to it?" Although Bai Qi hadn't been with me for long, I already regarded it as family. Without thinking twice, I directly dragged Wu Meng away from his conversation with Tie Ningxiang.

"Send two brothers ahead to scout out the situation, and let the rest dismount and rest," a steady voice came from Guo Lishi.

I instantly leaped to Zhou Deng's side, rapidly twirling my gun to form a circular shield that shattered all the misty blade-like projectiles into nothingness.
