Chapter 43
However, this desolate wilderness was entirely different; it was a genuine haunting ground for spirits and demons. Glancing out, Yang Qifeng spotted no less than seven or eight ghosts appearing within his field of vision.
It was only at this moment that they realized they had been played by Kurumi from the very beginning. The current Kurumi... seemed to possess no weakness of consumption whatsoever.
"Charge through!" Hesitating now was akin to seeking death; Hange gritted her teeth fiercely and gave the order.
With a loud crash, a slender figure was violently sent flying backward out of the swirling dust, slamming into the trunk of a large roadside tree. The immense impact caused the tree—thick enough for three people to embrace—to sway, sending withered yellow leaves fluttering down and adding a sense of desolation to the dreary autumn.
This was a miracle that the solid monster Minigula could not achieve, but which could be accomplished by the liquid-shifting Cosmo Liquid. Solid creatures repelled one another, but liquid creatures could merge. Furthermore, these two monsters originated from the very same source, merely existing at different points in history.
Yet now, being cured so simply left him feeling somewhat lost and momentarily at a loss for what to do.
Yun Yufei hurriedly waved his hands, adopting a pleading expression. He could not afford to cross this formidable young lady, whose mastery of the Green Lotus Swordsmanship was peerless among the first tier.
Judging from Killian's research process, it was entirely built upon a mountain of human lives.
Rebuked coldly by Chu Nan, Fanny’s eyes instantly turned red, tears welling up and spinning as she felt immensely wronged.
He held her hand as they walked away, and Su Nian'an felt a lingering reluctance to leave; this place was truly captivating.
"At most, the relationship between my sister and me would be announced to the world..." Although he said this, he was merely teasing her and would not actually do something that would bring her such trouble.
"You are utterly useless!" Qin Yue laughed contemptuously, then sat straight back into his chair, ignoring Si Yuanwu entirely.
"Yes, Madam, your subordinate guarantees the mission will be completed," Kenny said heavily. "Good, you may withdraw." Kitty instantly reverted to her previous lazy and charming posture, devoid of even a trace of that chilling aura from moments before.
The Druid's Great Dao of Magic was divided into three major factions. The first category was the Art of Transformation, which differed from ordinary Daoist magic by granting the transformer invincible and formidable strength through five basic forms: the saber-toothed cat, giant bear, falcon, Luan bird, and giant dragon.
Moreover, the current spoils of war were already more than enough. Any more might lead to excess, arousing the suspicion and covetousness of other tribes.
After the noisy crowd departed, a wild hare hopped into the blood-scented cave, bounced over to Qin Wusheng's side, licked her mangled and bloody face, and nudged her with its head.
Upon catching sight of that faint, flickering blood-red light, the surrounding people quickly fled the restaurant, yet remained gathered across the street to watch the spectacle.
It wasn't that Shen Yue was unconcerned; in her past life, Qin Lianping had suppressed the matter of the Marquis independently and forcefully, though it had taken some time. Now that Qin Lianping was aware of the Marquis's ambition in advance, Shen Yue naturally had nothing to worry about.
By a stroke of sheer coincidence, he had arrived at the Xia Tribe. He had felt immense fury upon seeing them sacrifice their own tribesmen to the Black Tiger in exchange for protection, prompting him to slay the beast in his rage and venture into the underground karst caves to witness the scenes within.
At this moment, the ten bodyguards, having just collected their salaries and emerged from the villa, approached Ye Lin.
Sure enough, A-Zhui's reaction was intensely dramatic; she rejected Zhixin's proposal without a moment of hesitation. Are you kidding me? Using her own man for experiments—she’d have to be brain-damaged to agree to that.
If they were discovered to be merely putting up a smoke screen while actually still hiding within Shuntian Prefecture, the consequences went without saying.
"Master... I want to become strong. Even if cultivation is far more grueling than for Wu Zhihao and the others, I have no complaints," Zhao Xiaomin said after a long silence, wiping away her tears fiercely as she knelt before Fu Yan to plead.
With the brief formation of the array patterns, the electrical currents in his body converged at his fingertips, where electric arcs danced vibrantly, emitting a brilliant and beautiful silver light. It was as if he held lightning in the palm of his hand.
The other academy heads all understood that the moment they defeated the Special Academy, the Enhanced Academy had firmly secured the top spot, completely unshakable.
"This guy." He Feng sneered. Although he strongly disliked Qiangzai, he was extremely satisfied with Qiangzai's actions this time.
"Of course I wasn't at ease. After my persistent demands, they finally agreed to let me come back. Otherwise, why do you think I couldn't return these past few days?" Ruhan gave a coy huff.
But Lin Xin was different; the moment her feet left the ground, her body lost balance and tilted sideways. Fortunately, he was by her side to steady her, sparing her from embarrassment.
Looking inward at her body, the meridians throughout were coated with a layer of golden light. Upon closer inspection, microscopic cracks could be seen on some of them, while the spiritual energy at her dantian had converged into a vortex—an outward-flowing one, continuously supplying energy to all parts of her meridians.
Naturally understanding this dirty meme from Yang Yi's past life on the internet, Tao Yingying nodded happily and followed right behind Yang Yi toward the kitchen.
It was currently noon, and very few people were on the fourth-floor business level. Chu Feng found the fax machine by the window, and Qian Xing had already provided him with the fax number the moment he asked for it.
"Damn it." Baruch's legs went weak, and he quickly banished the thought from his mind, fleeing as if for his life.
The two deputy commanders, Wen Da and Li Cheng, were directing the battle from the center army. Yet they never expected that the formidable army they relied upon could not hold out for even a single moment against the Liangshan forces; upon the very first clash, it had already turned into a crushing defeat.
"Li Gui! You've driven your parents to their deaths, what are you coming back for?" The village chief pointed at the fierce-looking bearded man and cursed.
By evening, the bandit leader surnamed Zhang had indeed gathered over forty menacing bandits at a patch of woods ten miles outside the village.
Moreover, he had heard that Blade's background was less than stellar, though given his strength at the time, he had been unable to uncover the detailed circumstances.
Pei Shi felt a surge of joy, knowing that the Emperor truly harbored the intention of replacing the Crown Prince, provided that the First Prince did not disappoint him.
