Sensing the giant egg’s direction at the same time, Chu Yun, driven by desperation, left Flying Thunder God marks both on the outside of the giant egg and on the monster itself, along with undead parasitic insects.

Gazing toward the distant forest on the mountain ridge, he found it hazy, as though it belonged to another world. Not only had the layers of color and the misty sensation before his eyes intensified severalfold, but most captivating of all was that, with a single glance, he seemed able to feel every leaf swaying gently beneath the sunlight and the soft breeze, each one radiantly graceful.

If this demon dared to run off and report what had happened, Jiang Mo would not mind leaving him forever in this hidden cavern, as a permanent companion to the bones of those savage beasts.

Even with his strength, Sun Cheng’s chances of obtaining the Fire Seed Source had grown increasingly slim. Yet until the very last moment, he was absolutely unwilling to hand it over.

The other cultivators of the Jialuo Spirit Academy knew that whether they could leave safely depended entirely on whether Xiang Yuanxing could defeat Yuan Zhen. One after another, they shouted themselves hoarse in encouragement.

“This beast is far too strong. If we keep fighting like this, I’m afraid we’ll all exhaust ourselves to death before that fellow even suffers a scratch,” Jiang Mo said gravely.

That evening, Linger beat him until his face swelled like a pig’s head, earning him a basketful of pitying looks from Qianyu.

Chu Yun only remembered that the two fellows had been fighting fiercely. He had used Flying Thunder God to rush over, and then… tragedy struck.

Yuan Zhen’s gaze shifted and fell once more upon the iron gate. The test of the spirit formation had already been passed. Next came the task of opening the gate.

Beneath the city walls, atop a war chariot, stood Song Yu, once the Chief Minister of Chu. Dressed all in white and covered in dust from his journey, his white hair and beard streamed across his chest. He was old now, yet he still possessed an imposing dignity.

The door opened. Arimura Kasumi, Nishino Nanase, and Fukagawa Mai were hiding in a corner of the bed, each holding a cake and waiting for Mai to close the door.

In truth, this line of questioning could have been omitted when selecting members for the team. It was merely Qin Shenzhi’s personal curiosity. He desperately wanted to know everything connected to Su Rao, including her child.

People like Feng Yong and Chenfeng haven’t come back either. The holiday isn’t over yet, but they should be returning in the next couple of days, since their vacation ends on the seventh day of the lunar new year.

From a distance, he punched Sun Liang. The mountain-shaped crystal condensed around his fist broke free and shot forward like a bolt of lightning.

After contacting the two men, Jiang Xiao gave him the old man Baili’s current location. Baili Yi picked up the phone and walked outside.

Everyone who saw the scene was filled with fury. Their gazes seemed ready to devour someone alive as they stared fixedly at Yu Zefeng inside the pavilion.

Secondly, he belonged to the Celestial Mechanism Sect, while this Zhengyi Sect was an orthodox school. One was regarded as an unorthodox path, the other a reputable tradition. Though they were currently at peace, they had often clashed throughout history.

Silently activating the map view, Shi Quan focused all his attention on the depths of the dense forest more than four hundred meters east of Lumberjack Road. There, suspended all alone, was a black arrow.

Shi Quan looked astonished. Those two boxes of film had been dug up last October, together with the bracelet, at the ruins of the Battle of Smolensk.

“Not bad~ What do you think today’s new program will be about? Could it be something like a hidden-camera prank?” Arimura Kasumi changed the subject. It was better not to dwell too deeply on what had happened the previous night.

Mu Ziqing could not figure out what he meant by suddenly asking such a question and then refusing to continue. Her heart was filled with unease.

Recently, Li’s mother had begun worrying over her son’s marriage again. She had arranged countless blind dates for Li Zhelong, but he refused to attend any of them. At her wits’ end, she issued a final ultimatum: if Li Zhelong did not get married within six months, he would have to marry the person she chose for him.

“I think you know the reason better than I do, don’t you?” Gu Hye-yeon said coldly. She had only just learned what was happening, and she was currently at the company. Standing before her was none other than Im Yoona.

To outsiders, it appeared that Jiang Chongsheng had thrown two punches as swiftly as lightning, while Gu Feng had landed two heavy blows on Jiang Chongsheng in the brief span of a single breath.

Just like Duan Fei, who was also at the peak of the seventh level, Gu Feng admitted that he could not withstand the power of that punch. Yet the Masked Man, likewise at the pinnacle of the seventh level, had dispelled it effortlessly. Clearly, he was far more accomplished than Duan Fei.

Madam He gently stroked He Yao’s head. When the girl could not see her, worry was impossible to conceal from her eyes.

Chen Feng panted heavily. Clearly, the strength of his body still needed considerable improvement. In the end, the reason he had not used his true energy was that he wanted to test his physical strength.

“Red Sister, you’re joking. It’s the friend beside me who wants to become acquainted with you. I wonder whether that would be convenient?” Chen Feng patted Gao Fan on the shoulder and asked with a smile.

“Boss, how about there? There’s more than enough space,” Yang Desheng said, pointing to an open patch of ground ahead.

“Absurd! I was born alongside Heaven itself, and I came into being in defiance of Heaven! The boundless Heavenly Dao will ultimately fall into eternal silence, while I shall command the Divine Realm and rise above the Heavenly Dao! How could I have been nurtured by it? Why waste words? Since you have already betrayed me, then you shall suffer my punishment!”

Emperor Shitian seemed to have been touched on a forbidden subject. He erupted in fury and stopped arguing with Su Huatuo.

Fortunately, this cave had no maze. As long as they knew the general direction, they should be able to find their way out.

Because of this incident, Zhu Xiaoxiao had also come to understand many things. She decided that she would no longer threaten to break up with Lin Luo over the matter of their child.
