Volume 1, Main Text - Chapter 62: Don't Tell Him Yet
The so-called training plan was actually quite simple: to build up the necessary physical endurance for the upcoming trip to Yanjing.
Yamada Tomoken's hand did indeed rise into the air, but in the end, he didn't strike. On second thought, he realized that Chie Yoshizawa was the most suspicious person, yet he still refrained from calling her.
She cast a glance with her watery eyes and spotted a familiar figure. But remembering that he should currently be at the military region, she shook her head.
However, he had already essentially lost all combat capability. The large hole in his chest was right where his heart belonged, and with the heart itself gone, how much fighting strength could possibly remain?
"Congratulations. You haven't fully recovered to your peak combat power from back then yet. Is it wise to go looking for them right now?" Ren Xiaorong asked with a worried expression.
Half the night had already passed, and the sky was growing faintly bright. The ancient castle was dead silent, and Satan's figure appeared before him once again.
"Starcraft, you must know why we have come for you, and you also know our purpose. I won't waste words with you; just tell us directly how to find the Dragon Lord, and don't try any tricks. Although you are a peak Divine Realm astrologer, you won't be able to escape from the three of us," the Sword God of Profound Iron said coldly.
It wasn't that Xiong Guo lacked money; he was simply low-key. Upon returning this time, he hadn't even asked Xiong Tianyou for tuition money because Chen Rong had directly given him one hundred thousand yuan. After paying his tuition, he still had over ninety thousand left on him.
At the same time, hollow spherical crystals began to grow in mid-air around the three of Ala. The texture of the crystals was truly peculiar; the three individuals positioned precisely in the center could clearly see the outside world, yet based on previous experience, anyone on the outside would be completely unable to observe anything happening inside.
Streams of green energy shot toward the high sky like rays of light. The influx of massive energy caused the crystal ball to vibrate unstantly, seeming as though it might shatter at any moment.
If the opportunity arose, he would find a way to eliminate the other party as well. After all, since animosity had already been established, it was only natural to cut the weeds and eradicate the roots.
Although things ended rather awkwardly with the Big Brother, regardless of how it turned out, it was thanks to the Big Brother's help back then that his family had reached where it was today.
Yet, seeing Gu Anhao place food into his bowl, his hand involuntarily picked up the chopsticks beside the table, and he awkwardly took a bite. Sure enough, the taste was just as unpalatable as he had imagined.
Very well, seeing that the higher-ups' attitude was resolute, everyone could only crank their penetrating gaze to the maximum to gather as much useful intelligence as possible.
"You need to figure something out quickly and see if we can clear this area. Sun Rui and I will hold them off." There was no other choice at this point. Baka and Sun Rui directly dragged nearby clothing racks over to form a barrier.
"Brother Bai, that character of yours has already achieved several collection milestones. Combined, they add about 125 to your overall attributes, boosting your combat power significantly. Your ranking on the leaderboard will probably shoot up near the top."
Upon returning to Dragon City and rewarding his meritorious Void-Pristine subordinates with the Fusion-Realm Breakthrough Pills, Xiaowushuang planted nine incomplete Heavenly-Grade Top-Tier Spiritual Veins and began setting up the Great Universe Spiritual Array.
Unexpectedly, this toast triggered the dissatisfaction of the Colorful-Clothed Boy and the old man. The Sword Bone and the Colorful-Clothed Boy, kindred spirits, clinked their glasses while glancing at Bai Ye with eyes full of disdain.
The alpaca, soothed by Ning Xi's petting, let out a soft hum. Ning Xi found that this alpaca was very affectionate and seemed quite intelligent.
Poor Young Master Li, being pointed at and cursed at by name in broad daylight, yet unable to utter a single word in response.
Meanwhile, the Kunlun disciples below burst into roaring applause, cheering as though the animal tamer had just performed some high-difficulty stunt, drawing countless waves of cheers and acclaim.
The local tour guide briefly explained the origin of Koh Tachai, arranged some free time for the tourists, and then led several visitors, including her, toward a few wooden cabins.
Doing this was the only way to guarantee Ye Xiaowan's safety. They claimed they were letting Ye Xiaowan enter to cultivate so they could eventually learn about her parents' whereabouts, but the real reason was known only to a few of them. The truth of that matter was something even they preferred not to dwell upon, so ensuring Ye Xiaowan remained unharmed was all they could do.
Throughout the entire cooperative project, the only thing that required maintenance was the planned generator unit driven by the water spewing from the artesian well.
Crimson lips curved slightly, her expression dripping with sarcasm. Su Mi raised an eyebrow at her, her demeanor lazy and unhurried, as if she weren't angry at all that the other woman had interrupted her.
The reason the two of them were able to enter smoothly wasn't because the First Elder's martial arts were truly that formidable, but rather because Sang Jinmu had dismantled the formation. When she released the seal on Tingfeng and the others, Tingfeng had gone back to reactivate the formation. Therefore, it was utterly impossible for the two of them to leave before Ji Yuheng arrived.
A single shout from Changkong caused the opponent to flee, because Changkong had used true energy, making the enemy realize they were no match. Besides, Changkong didn't want to resort to violence in front of the village chief. What if someone was accidentally injured? Wouldn't that only add to his sins and entangle him in further trouble?
Furthermore, two other Seven-Mark Ancient Barbarians appeared, who were being held back by the poison-men released by the Green-Robed being and Lu Ayong, the sole surviving ancestor of the Dwarf Clan. In fact, those two Seven-Mark Ancient Barbarians were already beginning to lose ground.
"The Nine Transformations of the Golden Body—the First Transformation, Immortal Transformation!" Golden Light Immortal Venerable smiled abruptly, and an illusory Nine-Turn Golden Pellet materialized in his hand, enveloping him within its glow.
Those hidden spiritual-god divine senses seemed to possess a certain intelligence, forcefully evading the encirclement and cutting edges of the Annihilation Divine Power. They darted and fled wildly like mad beasts, only to be extracted bit by bit and completely swept away by Ye Jin using the Orderly Divine Power.
The grey light colliding with the golden radiance devoured all the watery immortal essence instantly. Just as the young cultivator was about to flee, the grey light swept around him. He had only enough time to let out a miserable scream before vanishing, disappearing completely from heaven and earth.
At this moment, the elder leading the Falcon Chamber of Commerce hurriedly stepped out to smooth things over. He naturally knew what was truly going on in his heart; since the teleportation array was temporarily destroyed, the best course of action was to pacify everyone first rather than investigate or repair it. Once the Ten Halls assembly concluded, there would be no dead bodies left to bear witness, and the matter would naturally be buried.
Having been separated from society for more than ten years, her mother had been left with nothing after the divorce, making survival her primary challenge. She had repeatedly asked her for money, but far from having the capacity to help her mother, she could barely support herself.
Not knowing how long he had slept, he suddenly heard a rapid "bang, bang, bang" echoing as someone pounded on his door.
After dropping those words, Yan Jue turned around and walked away first, acting as though nothing out of the ordinary had just occurred.
Her discord with He Ziting, and all the things He Ziting had said to her, were secrets she had never shared with him. If she had told him, would he still have claimed to appreciate He Ziting so much?
