Volume 1, Chapter 48: You Are Seducing My Wife

"Huo Shixu, can't you speak properly?" She struggled slightly, trying to free her hand.

Huo Shixu chuckled, his voice softening. "Are you angry? Shall I make a call and have Lu Weiqian show up himself?"

Song Nanyi ignored him.

She tilted her head to watch the drone performance in the night sky.

These tiny aircraft were forming various affectionate patterns and numbers.

Petals fluttered down.

Young couples cheered and screamed.

The crowd surged.

Just the thought that their Shenluo Empire might soon produce a powerhouse at the Divine Body Realm filled him with intense excitement.

The entrance to the ancient ruins was connected to soul crystals. Now, the Bloody Camp had gathered most of the soul crystals, and the guards were about to open the entrance to the underground ruins, though the entrance itself was located within the headquarters of the Ash-Gray Camp.

Su Jiu was momentarily stunned, then tested it with a tentative strike. Confirming that the puppet did not move, he became certain that it was completely destroyed; crawling out from the pile of rubble just now had been its final burst of strength.

Instead, following the other's lead, placing bets accordingly, he kept on winning continuously. The money he had won back was already more than double his original stake.

Su Dingfang led his army in fierce assaults for several days. On the fifth day, in particular, he ordered his soldiers to press forward regardless of their lives, managing to breach the State of Zhongshan several times, forcing Yan Liang to rush his personal guard unit everywhere to patch up the vulnerabilities.

Earlier, Ye Cao had already secured one crystal, and while they were on their way, other places were also capturing crystals. When Ye Cao claimed the second crystal, in reality, the entire Bloody Camp had secured its fifth crystal.

"I wonder what guidance the master has? Please instruct me immediately, sir." After the Yellow Turban generals had all left, Wang Bodang could no longer suppress his urge to ask Li Shiqi for counsel.

Su Jiu's return to Chang'an did not cause much of a stir. After all, his avatar had remained here the entire time, and hardly anyone knew he had ever left.

Unconsciously, Butterfly Dream Whisper glanced at her companion. However, Purple Orchid was fully engrossed in dealing with the ice crystal soldiers, wearing an expression of intense concentration, and completely missed her gaze—it seemed their coordination left much to be desired.

"This is bad." After a moment, Shang Shitu realized that these men were actually elites among elites.

His heavy leather shoes were filthy, and after trampling on my short-sleeved shirt for over a minute, it was completely ruined beyond recognition.

"Call for the imperial physicians." Baili Yunyao's brow furrowed slightly. The joy of regaining his sight was soon overshadowed by his anxiety for Su Miao, and a faint sense of ominous foreboding crept into his heart.

The Azure Dragon no longer merely used sonic attacks to make the beasts slaughter each other, and the White Tiger no longer just exhaled breath, slowly killing with its fierce aura.

Just as Chu Yunxi was about to summon another stork to carry Jiao Jiao away, the door of the room was suddenly kicked open.

Initially, the Xibo Hou was merely restricted to his residence, but after numerous ministers stepped forward to plead on his behalf, he was relocated. No one within the city of Chaoge knew where Di Xin had moved the Xibo Hou; they only knew that the Xibo Hou had not left Chaoge.

"Bai Yi, stop keeping us in suspense." Tang Sancheng was also growing somewhat anxious. "Trapped inside this massive block of ice, he always gets a strange feeling, probably left over from the psychological shadow of the previous ice chamber."

The old ape king brought his fist crashing down, and the thousand-zhang mountain before them instantly exploded, shattering into countless chunks before disintegrating rapidly in mid-air into fine dust.

On the contrary, Elder Tong had not only been to the ancient battlefield, but had also entered the Time Chamber; bringing him along would be the best possible choice.

Now the three houses sat as neighbors. Following a series of rituals such as paying respects and presenting wine, song and dance performances commenced within the hall, while Yang Qian and Su Ye gathered together once again.

Feng Jinyu knew that they had already caused a commotion. If they did not leave now, they would be completely surrounded.

The jade slip racks on the second floor did not appear as densely packed as those on the first, but there were still hundreds of them. They held cultivation techniques and spells mostly suited for intermediate-stage cultivators. Naturally, there were far more spiritual sense techniques here than on the first floor, which greatly opened Chu Yunxi's eyes.
