Volume 1 Chapter 41: You Are Sweeter Than a Jackfruit
"Enough nonsense. Your helper, the ancestor of the blood kin, is likely already on the road to death, and you are next. You still want to destroy my base? Do you think that’s even possible? Even your mother wouldn’t be able to finish me off!" Ye Tian shouted coldly.
A thunderous roar echoed as the Origin-Breaker Beast came charging, its beastly eyes flashing with wild ferocity, as if it intended to grind Xue Hao to dust.
Meanwhile, the self-media platforms of both parties remained eerily silent. By not coming forward to clarify, they only fueled the speculation—could there really be something illicit between the two?
When Ning Qiu entered the City of Ten Thousand Corpses, the avian corpse-beasts dared not follow, seemingly held back by some presence that kept them at bay.
The fighter in the exoskeleton leaped onto the massive war machine, latching firmly onto the head of the giant American mech.
Qin Fen felt things weren't that simple because Smith had mentioned earlier that they had hired more than one expert, including several psychiatrists. Since others could surely deduce the intent behind George’s actions, it was clear that the attempt had been ineffective.
Following an order from the Expedition, the massive H-shaped electromagnetic railgun beneath the ship began to charge.
An ethereal voice rang out beside them, causing their hearts to tighten. "Who's there!" Xue Hao barked, crimson spiritual energy erupting from his body.
"However, Your Highness, you must not be careless! While the Yi Jing Garden is a good thing, it is also a double-edged sword! You must be mentally prepared!" Li Zheng said, looking concerned after a moment of thought.
The Dean and Deacon Wang frowned. They did not know what had happened, but Xie Ziyun was acting uncharacteristically.
The frantic staff officer, who had come in highly agitated to report the military situation, was kicked out of the tent by the unnervingly calm Montgomery, leaving him completely bewildered by the situation.
Within these ruins, certain zones held high-level martial arts techniques—Earth-tier mid-grade or even high-grade manuals could be found. Thus, their focus was here, rather than on mere demonic beasts or patches of weeds.
On the other side, Qi Tian-shou had returned to the Divine Continent, though traveling with two "severely wounded" patients made movement somewhat inconvenient.
Several loud clangs resonated as the bottles shattered, their contents spilling to the ground, kicking up a constant cloud of dust and smoke.
"So, karma is real; it’s not that it doesn't come, but that the time hasn't arrived. I have already cast Yuqing down from his position as a Sage, and the others have fallen one after another," Wang Hao chuckled.
The plan to tease him thoroughly had fallen through, and she could not help but feel a twinge of annoyance deep down.
"However, there is no rush for this matter. If we reveal his true parentage now, he may not believe us, causing unnecessary complications. It would be best to wait until we reach the Yang Family Village and let his foster father tell him himself," Wang Hao said.
It was not that Manzhou Prefecture lacked Void Immortal cultivators, but Mo Yuan had no authority to conscript them into the army, especially those who had attained the rank of Void Immortal or higher.
"Show me your ID," Lin Wei said with a slight smile as he looked at the middle-aged man. He had picked up this opening line from police thrillers, and he felt his delivery was quite reminiscent of the films.
Until he saw him skillfully turn the key, reverse the car, and press the accelerator; the silver-white sports car cut a beautiful arc through the night, gliding smoothly past the gate and onto the highway.
A crowd had gathered at the entrance of the inn. Several men looking like servants were surrounding Iron Hammer, punching and kicking him. Chun Hua and the others tried to intervene but were blocked by other servants, leaving them only able to scream for them to stop.
The two-headed orc caught its breath, flipped up, and regenerated its snake-lizard head. Though filled with malice, it realized it was no match for the opponent alone and stood side-by-side with the bone-winged orc.
When the commanders returned to their respective regiments, they did the same, pulling out a silk banner and declaring, "See this? Whichever battalion reaches the top of the city walls first, this banner belongs to them." Written on the flag were the words: "Attack like a fierce tiger."
Lan Caiyi’s aunt turned back, smiling as she looked Lin Qingxuan up and down, yet she remained silent.
In theory, as the highest official in the capital, Liu Ying was eligible to attend the morning court and could report this matter directly to the Emperor. However, Liu Hong had been unwell and had not attended court for a long time.
Mu Jiao and Yu Yuhan had already mastered the dance, but they stayed in the practice room for a long time to teach her.
Seeing the long swords being drawn one after another, Xie Lili’s heart skipped a beat. She knew that if she kept talking, things might really escalate, so she stopped speaking, turned, and strode toward the square.
After all, he was facing Fire Phoenix, Hu Jing, and Lin Sasa, and he had been concealing his true strength all along.
Seeing reinforcements arrive, Kong Rong and the others were greatly encouraged, picking up their weapons and attacking toward the direction of the rescue force.
A deafening roar of air currents erupted, like a wildfire sweeping across the plains or a blizzard covering the heavens. From start to finish, there was no sound of combat, no clash of blades, and no cries of agony.
This caused its pair of pointed, snow-white ears to droop instantly, and it stood there, dazed and dejected.
Thinking of the need to lure the Babylonian Empire's army and the Underworld Monarch into a trap, Chen Chen naturally wouldn't reveal the truth at such a time, so he simply smiled lightly, neither confirming nor denying anything.
Because her pride-and-joy strike had failed to achieve the desired effect, Artoria’s expression was quite strange; she even forgot that she was still in danger, ceasing even to dodge.
Setting aside the city-level orders, the county-level orders were secured. Together with the Apple Tower project, the cement plant wouldn't need to sell retail this year; their entire annual output could be absorbed by these two entities. If the city orders were finalized, it would mean two years' worth of production, which would then require an investment of about 70,000 yuan to expand capacity—but that was a conversation for later.
Soul Shock: You may activate this ability while in spear state. This ability carries a knockback effect, causes weakness to the target's soul, and deals damage equal to the weapon's base attack plus your Strength attribute. Passive; each activation costs 3 points of energy.
Su Shishi sat in the front seat, turning to look at Song Jie, crying incessantly and wiping away her tears with her hands.
