Chapter 26
With a sharp cry from Wang Chen, a miracle occurred; the massive boulder began to emit a black luster as he hoisted it high above his head with a single hand.
Xue Xue arrived for her visit dressed in simple attire, devoid of fine robes, jadeite, or gold and silver jewelry.
Penelope leaped out from the gate, chasing closely behind the man and the bird, but the gap in their strength was too great; by the time they reached the edge of the tribe, they had already pulled away, leaving her unable to catch up.
It was meant to be a beautiful autumn day, but with Leng Ran’s fall, a biting chill drifted through the air, seeping into the depths of He Ziyan’s weeping soul.
Tang Chuan could see that these people were indeed close friends; what was happening now was merely a jest among them, and it would certainly not affect their relationship.
Previously, Master Jitian was able to become the greatest master in the cultivation world primarily because he had successfully cultivated the Celestial Immortal Transformation Technique to its eighteenth, highest level. His cultivation reached an unfathomable peak, unrivaled in the world, thereby establishing a myth of invincibility that lasted for hundreds of years.
The hall erupted in laughter, though it was only the royals, ministers, concubines, servants, and palace guards of Kingdom Q who laughed, while those brought by Ivanka turned pale.
Indeed, when Ye Ke and the Chen sisters had just stepped off the plane and received a call from Xue’er saying that their men had been suddenly taken away by the municipal police, they immediately suspected that the old guard of the Wolf Alliance must have colluded with officials within the police department.
In the past, when passing through teleportation arrays, her vision had always been blocked by a burst of intense light, and by the time the light dissipated, the journey was over. She had never known that the interior of a teleportation array was such a spatial passage; seeing it today was truly an eye-opening experience.
The burly man before them wore a look of astonishment—not because of Can Ming’s sudden emergence, but because of his origin. The Nameless Great World—to put it bluntly, it was the most garbage of all great worlds, a world without even a name! How could someone from such a place break into the top one hundred of the Life Talisman Ranking?
As soon as Jin Feiyao entered the tunnel, she threw a punch behind her, sending Netherfire surging out to strike the conch house. The structure collapsed under the force of her blow, and the surrounding reefs and corals crushed down, sealing the tunnel hidden beneath.
The remaining two alliances that failed to secure a single military horse ranch must be extremely resentful. They might even blame us and the other five alliances for not giving them a chance, accusing us of snatching up all the ranches. We shall let them attack the most premium ranch to dampen their arrogance.
"Old Master Li, I’ve had my fill, so I should be going. Farewell!" Zheng Jianqiu stood up unsteadily, cupped his fists, and took his leave of Li Qingquan.
Even if the evidence presented on the surface suggested that these factions wanted to tear each other apart and that Wen Zhenzhen would ultimately be the one to profit, none of the people who held power in a place like Gujing City were fools. How could they fail to see through such an obvious scheme of framing others and using someone else’s blade to kill?
No matter how solemnly Sun Shaowei had warned everyone that this "competition" could not be treated as a game, it was still inevitable that some remained unimpressed. It was difficult to make everyone take a game seriously when they didn't perceive it as such.
"Come to think of it, it’s already the nineteenth of June. In a few days, the Emperor will surely leave the palace to escape the summer heat. By tradition, I am always on the list, and this year will likely be no exception. You should prepare early; it is very likely that you will go along," Yinzhen said, reminding her of the matter.
Zupu kept thinking about the best-case scenario, imagining that if he provided a good reception and Chide Zuzan was pleased, he would be rewarded. Then, his fief would become broader and greater, his fine wine more abundant, and beauties would be beyond counting.
Liu Lu ignored him. After much planning, he finally managed to cover Leng Fei’s approach and successfully received the protection of his innate skill, 'Void Shield.' Naturally, he would not wait a moment longer.
A flash of light appeared on Abdullamos, and with a roar, it broke through Sun Ruodan’s thought-wave field and landed on the ground with a thud.
High in the sky, a silver aerial command aircraft circled repeatedly, continuously emitting detection waves into the surrounding space. A white general in a three-star uniform wore a stern expression, staring intently at the giant screen in front of him.
Ji Ke turned off her treadmill, rested one hand on the machine, and picked up the towel draped over her shoulder to wipe away her sweat.
This scene left the four old men dumbfounded. This giant python was a powerful beast at the eighth level of the Heaven Martial Realm; even if suppressed, its foundation remained, and its flesh was incredibly tough. Even they could, at most, slay the python, but they could not shatter it with a single punch.
"Hehe, Jiang Yuan, how does the saying go? 'When Heaven is about to confer a great office on any man, it first exercises his mind with suffering and his sinews and bones with toil.' You offended someone, so his brother naturally wants to make things difficult for you. He just doesn’t know that this is not a hardship, but an opportunity for you to shine," Yan’er said.
Seeing them chatting so happily, Mo Xize left silently, leaving them to their own space.
"Hey, the way you put it, you were the first to stop acknowledging me as your father. You call me 'Senior Brother,' so shouldn't I follow your lead?" General Xing Yan laughed.
"Stop, I agree to your terms, but you must guarantee my son’s safety," Yang Wulin said.
Lei Zhigang was blasted away, his face turning deathly pale with blood at the corners of his mouth. His robes were stained red with blood, making him look utterly disheveled.
