After entering the hot-spring villa that occupied the finest location in the manor and was also the most luxurious, Aoki finally met the so-called important figure.

Su Ying could not help panicking. She glanced around and only then realized that everyone was buried in their own work.

Opening a passage through the void and teleporting instantaneously—these were methods of the great powers of the Ancient Realm, far more profound than those of the World Soul Realm.

“That’s right. Do you still remember who the people responsible for killing you were?” Ximen Chuixue asked.

He then lifted the ninja up, pressed his right palm against the man’s head, and urged wood energy into his body, planting a tree puppet in his heart.

However, capturing a large number of pirates at the same time would require manpower and resources beyond what the six commanderies of Jiangdong could bear.

At dawn, Ximen Chuixue emerged from the Four Directions Inn with a gloomy expression. He did not even have time for breakfast, afraid that he might be poisoned to death.

Ximen Jian’s face was full of wariness. Although he did not take Xiao Yan seriously, beating him for no reason would be another matter entirely. Did he really think the Divine Marquis Manor was made of clay?

After leaving the Mu family, Zhong Yexue held her phone in her hand and brought up that familiar number, yet hesitated to dial it.

That day, Qin Feng abandoned his usual laziness. Not long after sunrise, he got out of bed and, after a simple wash, walked slowly toward the martial arts arena.

“Heh heh, let the employee number die, die, die. System, are you deliberately messing with me? But customer-service agents are people too. I’ve heard that when players have a bad attitude, an angry agent will sometimes delay resolving the issue for a few minutes.”

Thus, the Dragon Saint, unleashing attacks without restraint, naturally became the target of the Heaven-Destroying Thunder Tribulation. After all, compared with the Flame Saint, the Dragon Saint’s cultivation was far higher.

Damn it, I forgot that Mom and Dad could hear me talking with Su Yun. Then again, Su Xue had asked me to look after Su Yun for several days, so sooner or later I would have to meet my parents anyway.

The sudden appearance of two people and a beast immediately shocked many of those nearby. They had been planning to target the giant-winged bird, but after sensing Lin Zhen and Ye Yun’s strength, they hurriedly scattered and hid.

This was the first time Qi Min had ever handled a case with such exhilarating freedom, and she eagerly prepared to continue the investigation. Yang Xu quickly stopped her and summoned her to the rear courtyard of the county office.

To avoid alerting the culprit, the matter concerning Imperial Physician Qi had always been investigated in secret. Pan Zhen’an had sent a group of people to follow him. From his home to the Imperial Medical Academy, the Emperor’s informants were everywhere. It seemed that the day the truth came to light was not far off.

Liu Xiu chuckled lightly, his gaze shifting once more to Pang Tong. Pang Tong’s dancing was truly an eyesore. And yet, the scene was so amusing that it made everyone laugh, making the atmosphere even livelier.

Lin Huo might even incur the wrath of everyone at Divine Weapon Peak because of this, and could possibly be punished by Bu Zhengping as well. No one knew why he would do something that pleased neither side.

With an imposing bearing, the Ancestral Dragon of the Universe shielded Gu Feng. He spared no praise for him, his expression radiant with admiration.

He relaxed slightly. It seemed the system was still quite intelligent. But then another problem arose: what should he name the guild?

That was not even the most frightening part. Even more terrifying was the person who had traded with Gao Yu. In the modern world, he wore a bamboo hat and carried a large saber on his back, his face hidden from view. Yet the icy aura he gave off was enough to make anyone shudder.

Zhan Guo nodded slightly. The navy had already confirmed this, so it could hardly be considered an original insight. He therefore said nothing and quietly waited for the other man to continue.

The corpse people were scattered throughout every district of Qingtian City. From a high vantage point, one could see violent explosions erupting one after another across the city.

Xin’en City had long been occupied by corpse people, so it was impossible for any donor to provide suitable organs. At the time, Doctor Lia and Doctor Yang Yaotian made a bold decision: they would transplant artificial mechanical organs into the elder brother.

Ling Yun had felt somewhat embarrassed when he first plagiarized this ninja technique from Naruto. Now that he was handing the scroll back to him, however, he felt a sense of relief, as though he were returning something to its rightful owner.

After a bout of wild speculation, Huasheng said nothing at all. Instead, he offered Zheng Shuai the silent treatment, leaving Zheng Shuai utterly humiliated in front of them.

That was why, overcome with excitement, she had patted Zhetian on the back, leading to this absurd chance encounter.

When they arrived at the hospital, Zhao Xiaochen was immediately rushed into the emergency room. Fortunately, things turned out reasonably well. Although the treatment was somewhat crude, they had made it in time and successfully drained the accumulated blood. Otherwise, the blood clot might have compressed the nerves, and amputation might truly have become necessary.

In the past, Rinne had been alone and felt there was no way to compete. Now, with a studio backing him, he wanted to give it a try—if nothing else, it could serve as a way to develop a new line of business for the studio.

Meanwhile, after losing the Giant Reincarnation Eye, Sheren could no longer see anything happening on Earth. His Silver Wheel Reincarnation Eye did not yet possess such a function.

But Romney did not comply with his wishes. Instead, he launched a counterattack against the Naga Clan and wiped them out.

Romney had experienced the chaos of the early stages of that contest. After emerging from the Evil Spirit Barrier, his mind suddenly seemed to have become much sharper.

The Immortal Crane Grandmaster sat atop his own immortal crane and watched the Azure Bull Grandmaster strike Edexiva with one sword blow after another, yet somehow fail to kill or even injure him. Sensing that something was wrong, the Immortal Crane Grandmaster immediately ordered the Azure Bull Grandmaster to stop.

At that moment, Ye Ming’s mind conjured up an absurd notion entirely unrelated to the truth currently before him.

However, with his mother standing right in front of him, it was not convenient to ask directly what had happened to His Highness. He glanced outside and saw that it was already getting late, so he had no choice but to return to the palace first and discuss it later.
