Chapter 38
Xie Banjui escaped, but the old gatekeeper, whom they had tossed off the city wall before leaving, managed to survive.
To be sure, Yue Ru was at home almost every day. Apart from studying, watching television, and playing games, she had nothing else to do; it was truly boring.
I immediately opened my backpack to check; it was indeed completely empty. Everything was gone, even the 80 bottles of enhancement potion.
Through long-range reconnaissance, Andy discovered that it was a massive castle, easily capable of accommodating hundreds of thousands of people moving about freely.
At this moment, the surroundings fell deathly silent, as everyone saw the gaze of Mo Ming, which seemed as sharp as a blade.
Regrettably, there is no such thing as a regret pill in this world. No matter how much Lan Yao regretted her actions, it was of no use.
Following that, a black shadow, like a kite with a broken string, flew backward before slamming into the ground with a "bang," carving a long trench into the arena floor before finally coming to a stop.
He did not like Ouyang Yingqi keeping her thoughts on others; he wanted her to focus her attention solely on him.
"You... how am I supposed to talk to you lot!" Zhu Hengwei’s tone sounded remarkably like someone chiding friends for their mischief.
Witnessing this scene, Yu Sheng finally realized the power of this ninth-level summon. The thick scales of the "Black Domain Overlord," which he could only shatter by using a divine artifact, were as easy to chew as potato chips in the mouth of the Radiant War Dragon. After a few struggles, the "Black Domain Overlord" stopped moving.
In fact, historians consider this period of history to be a mystery. Why was the Father of the Empire so obsessed with cloning technology at the time? According to research and analysis, there was no need for clones to operate machinery or to mine coal.
"That’s right, Master. He promised me he would help my father expand the company, but what good is an expanded company if he doesn’t truly love me and is merely lusting after my beauty?" Liu Feifei said, feeling deeply aggrieved.
After this series of events, Bao Lun had long regarded Ye Tian as a god. Upon hearing the command of his idol, he immediately took Wang Ke'er and left, even though the latter was desperate to stay and stop Ye Tian.
Originally, Ye Tian had effortlessly defeated Elder Nanfeng’s two personal guards, Cang Song and Jin Zhu, leading him to believe that Elder Nanfeng’s strength could not be that great. Unfortunately, that was not the case; Elder Nanfeng’s power had reached an unimaginable level.
Liu Feifei was also in high spirits; she had never visited the association since Stone became an elder.
Just then, Liu Aiguo suddenly let out a cry and sprang up from the sofa.
"Father, why are you attacking me? Don't you love Yingying anymore? I’ve earned so many Ghost Saints for you," Si Yingying said weakly.
The moment Bai Lan saw Ye Tian, she looked excited. Ye Tian looked around the office—it was clean and bright; where was even half a fly?
"You heard right, I'm here." Zhang Hao appeared before Medoff with a grin. Watching Medoff’s mouth hang open in surprise, he prepared to pull the trigger, but Zhang Hao flicked his finger, sending a silver needle flying.
The first thing to be repaired was Ye Tian’s destroyed optic nerve. Those battered nerve tissues, as if infused with infinite vitality, began a slow process of self-repair and regeneration.
"Zitang!" Shen Ruohan’s voice rang in Feng Zitang’s ears. Over these days, Shen Ruohan and Feng Zitang had become close friends who shared everything, and coincidentally, they were roommates.
Ye Yu rolled his eyes at Yi Tian. He had seen shameless people before, but never anyone this shameless. He wanted to use someone to refine medicine and was even showing off in front of them—did he expect them to be grateful?
While those with high cultivation levels and strength could resist the poisonous gas, the Poison Emperor’s gas was only the most common variety; his techniques were what made him truly bizarre. If one was the slightest bit careless, even those far stronger than him would end up dying in hatred.
Xiao Feifei could use her student status as a cover, but you, Yue Longtian, have already entered society—you have no reason to evade legal responsibility, right?
Even though he still felt for Di Baobao, his current mood was filled with anger and heartbreak after learning her true identity. Why? Why had she lied to him? Why had she concealed her true identity from him!?
However, just as Zhao Feilong moved to strike, he collapsed to the ground before he could even touch Yue Longtian.
Mu Mu sighed. To have walked so far only to have to turn back—just one step away, and everything was lost.
This method of death was like being dried out by the sun; the moisture evaporated bit by bit, leaving behind a shriveled, heartless, and meaningless pile. Even if only a pile of such things remained, it would eventually disappear and be sent to the universe's garbage dump.
Just as Yang Guoan was at his wit's end, good news came from the criminal investigation team: the target had been identified. He immediately went to the team, where an officer received him and handed him two files.
"Drink your medicine." Li Yuxi scooped up a spoonful of medicine, blew on it gently, and brought it to Chu Bing’s lips.
Ning Xue was happy to see Zhao Lin this time, but she was equally worried: could he really complete this mission?
"Isn't that A-Man? Why are you here?" Li Yuxi was also somewhat surprised. According to what they had discussed, these people shouldn't have come at this time.
It truly is a case of not fearing a god-like opponent, but fearing a pig-like teammate. However, given Ye Tong’s abilities, spinning a tall tale was second nature to her.
"No, our elemental defense and magical defense are far from enough. If we encounter monsters with magical attacks, we will still be at a disadvantage," Ning Xue said.
Unlike the two of them, Zhou Yang was still very young and had over two thousand years of lifespan left. Even if he missed this opportunity, he would have plenty of time in the future to seek others.
Looking at the message sent by Chu Xinbai, she couldn't help but sit up straight, a look of seriousness replacing the casual, relaxed expression on her face.
In the old houses, many were now uninhabited, yet the plants had not yet occupied these ownerless dwellings, even though they were within easy reach.
"Oddball!" Muttering with his head down, his mood for getting some air ruined, Chu Xinbai felt a bit annoyed as he returned to his room.
At this moment, a fit of coughing erupted from inside the carriage, sounding extremely abrupt amidst the tense, sword-drawn atmosphere.
It was a pity that cultivation in the Star Sea Realm was also complex. Poison alone was divided into many different types, and the kind of virulent poison that dissolved cells, like that of the God-Slaying Spear, was just one of many. If Chu Guan wanted to max out his poison resistance, he would likely need to cultivate for a very long time.
