Chapter 37 — First Update

Since the passing of the previous Sky-Howling King, the throne of the beast race, which had stood vacant for hundreds of years, finally had a successor.

Lie Yuan wore a look of pure greed; it was his first time seeing such a massive piece of flame-iron ore. Yang Hao, without a word, stowed it away in his storage pouch.

He desperately wanted to find a perfect excuse. In fact, he had always intended to pressure Ye Yi and his three companions to report to the Mountain Front Law Enforcement Hall rather than forcibly dragging them away.

She had no path of retreat. Although she knew her master would not watch her perish, how could she allow herself to grow dependent on that? No one could protect another for a lifetime; only by becoming strong herself could she survive.

As he grabbed the items, he kept his head bobbing, remaining vigilant. He was confident that as long as he wasn't killed by the first shot and didn't face gunfire from all directions, making an escape would be no problem.

It was beyond repair. Shang noted that with his current cultivation level, he could hunt even more powerful Profound Evil Beasts to serve as his puppets. Since these beasts grew by absorbing malevolent energy, and with the control provided by the Chaos Spirit Art, it saved him a great deal of effort.

The public could only estimate the progression of events based on the speculations of the spectators in the plaza.

After all, he could not simply ask Lu Liuyun about the wind-element spirit item without having sensed its aura first; even dropping hints would be difficult.

As a light breeze stirred, Ye Xiong stood cloaked in blood-stained robes, his long hair fluttering. His scorching gaze was filled with battle intent. At this moment, he desperately wanted to know how Ye Yi would manage to parry his next move.

"I haven't reached the point of poverty yet," Chen Jinchuan remarked to himself. A broken ship still has three pounds of nails; no matter how broke he might be, he still had several properties under his name.

More than a dozen miners immediately scattered, their hammers and picks clanging against the surrounding rocks as they struck and carefully inspected the fragments. A squad of new recruits followed, helping to clear away obstructive rubble and assisting the craftsmen.

Gu Nanyan had never realized that even within the school, the abuse of power could be so severe.

In the livestream, Jian Chen could hardly believe his eyes, his heart racing with excitement, even though he knew he was only watching a fragment of the future.

Shen Yunqing said, "You must be hungry. I'll go make you something to eat." She stood up listlessly and headed to the kitchen, followed by Qi Jisheng, who found her hunched on the floor, weeping uncontrollably.

"No need, I'm fine." Li Dong didn't wait for them to finish their conversation; he sat straight up on the stretcher and planted his feet on the ground.

He prepared everything he needed and sent a text message to Su Weiwei, telling her to brace herself before heading over.

During these days recuperating in the palace, just as they had promised, the two had truly changed, tempering their ways and gaining much clarity.

Ling Yun returned the salute. When he accidentally caught the other party’s cold gaze, he felt an inexplicable, strange sensation arise in his heart.

Princess Changqing was deep in thought, lamenting for her son, when suddenly Ling Yun appeared before her as if he had descended from the heavens.

He endured the excruciating pain, trying to loosen his grip on Hua Ying'er's hand. Hua Ying'er, however, burst into laughter, her expression twisted and savage, her eyes filled with madness and gloom.

As a member of the Han army, I have the duty and the right to extinguish this "righteous" rebellion.

Of course, although Jian Xiake could grasp some of these complex expressions, he could not fully comprehend the depths of Yin Wenjiao’s gaze, which was filled with hesitation, confusion, and fear for the future.

Sun Wukong let out a muffled grunt, teeth gritted, and suddenly whipped out his Golden Boundless Staff, striking at the Wheel-Turning King without a word.

And so, they all conspired to play a prank on Qing Yusheng. At that moment, inside the grand mansion, they threw a party.

Beneath the giant rock, over three hundred men in black stood, their eyes fixed unwaveringly on the man in green robes.

"Praise Vault-Tec! Finally, a chance to rest!" The engineer slumped over the table, arms wrapped around his head.

As the central figure and the mastermind behind the assassination plot, Ciano naturally had to answer the phone himself.

Upon receiving the news, Qi Tianshou’s gaze toward Chatu brightened, a strange smile that sent a shiver down Chatu’s spine.

It was as if the thunder followed immediately after the lightning struck—a matter of mere moments.

Having tasted the sweetness of success, things spiraled out of control. Moreover, the army was incredibly expensive to maintain; he naturally had to find a way to recoup the silver.

His goal was to establish ties with the Ming imperial military, hoping to use Yu Dayou to meet the illustrious Qi Jiguang.

Yu Huatian’s power was too profound; even without outsiders present, this sand worm was no match for him.

Wang Xingxin, growing colder by the minute, could bear it no longer; he wrapped himself in a blanket and ran toward the tent of Da Niu and Hei Wa. Outside, the blizzard intensified, and within a short time, the world had turned into a vast expanse of white.

"No, they are very good to me," Min Suqi replied with a gentle smile.

After lingering on Li Yang for a moment, Uncle Chen suddenly recalled the grey-robed evil cultivator he had encountered outside, suspecting it might be linked to what had occurred here.

Since falling into the hidden valley, he had not only discovered the Nine Suns Divine Art but also found many rare, heaven-sent treasures.

The autumn night was chilly. Though he wore an outer garment, the cold night wind made him shiver as soon as he stepped out of the courtyard.

He had often taken on odd jobs for Aunt Shen, and every time, she spoke right to his heart.

"Borla, stop envying them. If you think that dancer has a nice figure, you can join them too. I'm sure you dance much better than Peter," Lan Bo said with a brazen laugh.

"Master, you're laughing enigmatically again!" Su Si shivered involuntarily and shouted.

"Haha, no choice! The bullets are flying everywhere, so it's better to wear a bulletproof vest!" Li Yaojie roared with laughter, clutching his stomach.

Amidst the white mist, Lei Tian did not move an inch. His eyes flickered with golden light as he employed the Heaven's Eye Technique to survey the surroundings.

Hiss... The crowd was shocked. Someone had actually bid three million! Although there were many wealthy tycoons here, there was no need to waste money so recklessly.

It must have been an adhesive made from sticky rice paste; once softened by water, it should have been easy to remove. When the exquisite carvings of a dragon and a tiger appeared, they immediately drew the gaze of all bystanders.

There was no other way. If they hadn't deceived everyone, the Xuantian Mercenary Group would likely have been destroyed.
