Chapter 116

In the beginning, the smoke drifting above the back mountain was always black. Gradually, black and white smoke began to appear in turns, and later, only scattered wisps of white smoke remained.

"Yes!" Being a well-trained troop, the people of Zheng Village immediately steeled themselves, preparing for a fierce battle.

The Ghost King let out a shrill scream and lashed out at Lan Mi with a backhand strike, but she leaped away, landing in the distance. The Ghost King began to chase her; now with both hands injured, he transformed into a giant and tried to crush her underfoot.

To think that the mere act of breaking a seal would extinguish the subterranean fire—and that it happened to be witnessed by Bai Shizhong. At this point, there was no excuse left to deny it.

The fox watched from the sidelines, thoroughly enjoying the spectacle and secretly hoping they would beat each other to death. After all, Gu Qianqian was heartless enough to bully a fox.

When Nan Xi finished changing into her pajamas and prepared for bed, she suddenly remembered Ji Mozhen outside. Did he even have a change of clothes?

However, the original owner knew full well that a year later, the Cui family would spend ten billion to acquire the Fang family. When they took over the Fang enterprise, they had certainly acted with arrogant, deep-pocketed ostentation.

"Could you two consider the feelings of the person you're talking about?" Nan Xi’s voice drifted out.

But the moment the broadsword touched the Violet Demonic Flame, it melted into molten iron, and the flames instantly clung to the wielder’s body.

As for Su Jiu, after the black and white stones had been crushed for some time without the appearance of the First Spirit, he shrugged. It seemed the Heavenly Secret Pavilion had declined the trade. He didn't think much of it and was just about to close his eyes to meditate when the space in front of him suddenly distorted, and a figure slowly emerged.

The Emperor personally bestowed three cups of royal wine, which Qin Qiong drank as commanded. After expressing his gratitude, he mounted his horse and rode toward the training grounds with a thunderous clatter.

Within the mist, a series of sounds erupted again. People could not see what was happening inside the fog, but they could feel the storefront trembling with every impact.

Yi Le smiled and said that they had basically enough people for their game club now. He and Kasumigaoka Utaha would handle the script, Eiri would be in charge of the original art, and he could also take care of the background music.

Sages walk the earth; in one year they form a settlement, in two years a town, and in three years a capital. Because they govern with virtue, they win the hearts of the people, and thus the masses follow them. If this is the standard, Saint Emperor Tak Ebelon has only the name of a sage, but where is the sagehood?

Come to think of it, the decision to attack this time was purely the Pirate King's own stubborn insistence, and just thinking about it made Bill Gates feel quite disgruntled.

Years ago, during the internal rebellion of the Shenluo Empire, the Li family suffered another catastrophe. The Third Elder fell while covering the retreat of his clansmen, and many young men also died at the hands of the God Sword Sect. In the end, only twenty people were left in the entire Li family, all of them under the age of sixteen.

In that instant, had Ye Kong chosen to retreat, he would certainly have been hit by the ensuing "Frost Wind Bloom," leaving him with a "frostbite" status and severely reducing his agility.

The sect leaders looked disappointed and, after a brief exchange of words, took their leave. After all, with the Demon Emperor appearing, they were all anxious to return to deal with their own sect affairs.

The last three of the six streaks of lightning were swept away by the light of the Buddha along with the auspicious clouds, leaving no trace behind.

A few insults might be forgotten, but the whole world knew her reputation was ruined. How would she face the world then?

One must understand the nature of the Blue Flame Ice Lotus. It was born in the Yin-Yang Dual Eye, where extreme Yin and extreme fire alternated every thousand years. In other words, the two were of the same root and origin; one simply waxed as the other waned, rotating once every millennium.

The two walked back side by side, just as they had come, their shadows never once overlapping.

The key to the cage was in his hands, yet he had remained a prisoner for years, holding that key while hoping that Dong Qianmo—who was no longer the Wei Moqin he once knew—could redeem his dead love.

Wei Changying, naturally, had to be modest again. In the end, because Madam Su kept sipping her tea—though she did not speak up for her third daughter-in-law, she did not stop her from asking what task she would be assigned next.

Four years passed, and finally, one day, the ten-year-old child couldn't take it anymore and ran away. By a river, he saw the person who would change his life forever.

The light cast by the dim, yellowish night-luminescent stones was somewhat gloomy, and visibility in the long underground staircase was low. Xiao Fei felt nervous; the underground passage was so quiet that it made his heart race.

A faint blush faded from Hong Si’s pretty face, but hearing Xiao Fei say this, she couldn't help but ask curiously, "What is it? As long as it's something Brother Xiao Fei asks, I will never oppose it." As the words left her lips, her face flushed red once more.

The Silver-Armored Corpse and Qing Mu, the two native beings, looked up at the sky in horror. The weather in this Nether Gorge had never changed throughout the four seasons, and not even a drop of rain had ever fallen. This sudden change filled them with unease.

Putu opened his massive jaws and roared again. The Lion's Roar, now several times stronger than before, surged forth like a tidal wave, causing even the daggers to tremble.

They had considered almost every possibility, but they had not considered that among these people, there was actually a gay man.
