Volume One, Chapter 90: Open Up and Partly Break the Ice
She noticed that Blue Wind had matured a great deal, especially his jet-black eyes; the youthful naïveté had gone, replaced by a faint indifference.
As Long San’s elixir in the space ring had nearly run dry and the system still gave no response, Yang Tian could not help but look desperate. This desert was a special place built for killing, and not by slaughtering people at once, but by letting them die in despair. It was plainly meant to make someone suffer through the very moments before death.
Chuyuewen understood at once: once Dongyuan Wuji invoked the Purple Firmament Thunder Cloud, Lan Feng’s Sky-Canopy Flame Dragon would have no advantage at all.
One could say that at this moment Lin Bei had become a helpless punching bag; what He Chengfeng wished to do, he could do.
Wen Zaozao’s eyes began to sting with tears, and her vision blurred. She looked at the diary lying on the floor and a rush of grievance surged through her; she did not know why, but suddenly she wanted to cry—really cry.
Wang Dalì quickly offered his apology, saying it was his birthday, and his illness had flared up that day, so he had not powered on.
After these words, Bodhi Child stepped out with a fire krait-drake, and when it appeared they were already at Luofu South Mountain.
Qian Xizhi was startled too; he tried to avert that gaze, but found he could not. However he shifted, it clung to him—there was no way to shake it off. He was fixed in its lock.
They would stay inside for ten days or a fortnight, and make sure to forge enough Peiyuan Pills before leaving.
On the whole, perhaps because of her age, this Zheng Lihong remained gentle and agreeable from beginning to end. Even when Chuge asked, she tried to leave nothing unsaid and held nothing back.
After regaining awareness, the Dragon King Cauldron did not continue to absorb the Nine-Hued Radiant Lotus’s energy, because Old Demon Sangmou knew that Min Ziguan’s advancement to the Soul-Severing Realm required tremendous power. Even if part of the lotus’s energy was wasted, it could only carry him roughly to that realm.
As they stepped forward, tearing gusts of wind rang out around them. Dense knots of underworld flame flared up along both walls of the cave, illuminating the path before them.
Ye Xiaohan was about to remind her to hurry and do her own work when, at the stairway, she saw Zhou Rui’s figure coming toward her.
Chen Xuanji and three others immediately used light-body techniques to follow Eagle Mountain. Xuankong and the others hurried after them. Along the way, there were only bloodstains. Those marks were surely not left by Eagle Mountain’s party—undoubtedly Yu Fei’s. Even if the fire sands of the Western Region could not quickly take Yu Fei’s life, that trail of blood alone could send Yu Fei on the road to death.
Luo Ziran and Xiao Bufan had never visited this restaurant and were not familiar with it; Gu Chuanfei, likewise, did not refuse, and opened the menu to start ordering.
Long Jingtian walked through the air, pressing straight toward the terrifying concentration of lightning, and in the end twisted through the void and sat there, while bolts of lightning rushed directly at him.
“Yu Fei, after yesterday, I suddenly found you are not so hateful. I feel as though I truly enjoy being near you now. I seem very different from before—no longer putting up a front, almost childlike. I have not felt this free in so long,” Zhuge Subai said softly.
Su Nan nodded as if he understood. Wang Xiangyang had already become fully independent from home, but in his bones he was still of the Wang bloodline; what must be explained must still be explained.
“I am his wife. Where is Gong Qiming? Tell him to answer the phone immediately,” Ye Ningbai said, summoning the authority of the Gong family magnate.
It was no surprise that Gu Xijue appeared here, only his weary expression left her slightly taken aback.
To gather this much information again in such a short time—the information-gathering ability of the Wei Rule Management Committee is truly formidable.
This was originally meant to be her newly built palace; with the information I gave her, it was reproduced exactly as a Forbidden City.
Rong Qian felt deeply sorry at heart. Though he had thrown her out out of fear that he might entangle her, he understood well how heavy that wound could be. Yet this girl, instead of hating him, devotedly searched for him everywhere, and that did not fail to move him.
Still, though the Ancient Abyss was exceedingly dangerous, thinking of the Holy Lord’s order, the man let out a cold laugh, turned around, and plunged into the Ancient Abyss.
As this cycle continued, Lu Chen lost nothing and gained quite a bit. Though the wolves offered little that aided survival, there were still over a hundred wild wolves accumulated; at the same time, the wolves also spilled something.
A streak of colored light suddenly rose from the fish monster’s body, starting from the soles, racing to the head, then spouting from its mouth and shaping into a curved rainbow.
Bian flew toward Lin Qing, its two long antennae constantly quivering. Its fangs were drawn back into its mouth, and no feral light glinted in its eyes; instead, there was a faintly solicitous expression—an ingratiating pose, an eager desire to flatter.
With one full display of force, Lingxiao’s single palm sent the man crashing to the ground. At the same moment, Laohei lit the oil lamps in the room. As the room filled with light, the man’s face was revealed.
Still, this was only a stopgap. To escape the Shadow’s pursuit, Lingxiao had to think of another way.
This was nothing like what Lingxiao had imagined. He had expected a fierce battle, yet Gongbu had somehow entered that room with such ease.
He found Zhou Can a bit surprised; this girl was truly thoughtful—she had left at noon and returned at night just to take another look.
Even now, even though he is stronger, it is still impossible for Alpha Ji to reconnect that so-called quantum network and download Earth’s thirty-year holographic evolution map. The same reason still applies: it depended on hardware from a military-grade tablet.
