Chapter 60

"Bronze Coffin Lid!" A sharp shout shattered the wind, blocking the surge of spiritual power, sweeping away murderous intent. In the void, a burst of azure light erupted—the bronze coffin lid blazed fiercely. Thirteen black arrows shot forth, clashing in a rapid chain of metallic clangs.

Yue Longtian walked over slowly, only to see Xiao Guoxiong with a trace of blood on his forehead, clearly struck by Hong Xing. At this moment, Xiao seemed hesitant, as if wanting to say something to Yue Longtian, and Director Fang stammered along with him.

Whether this three-headed beast was the same as the one before mattered little; its hatred for Lu Qingyu was undiminished. It attacked with a volley from all three heads.

Ye Yu's brow was now covered with beads of sweat, exhaustion showing in his expression, but he did not pause. His hands moved swiftly, weaving seals—each imprint encircling Xiongba Tian like a heavenly net. At the center, Xiongba Tian trembled, blood streaming from his mouth and nose.

Only after defeat did everyone learn that the White Wolf was the sole heir of the Bai family. With that revelation, both sides ceased their entanglement. In this school, each had their own territory—what was there left to fight for? The true importance lay in building, not in mutual destruction.

Cradling the soft warmth in his arms, Dongfang Yi did not wish to rise, but many important matters still needed resolution. Gently placing the person beside him onto the bed, he kissed her cheek, covered her with the blanket, and reluctantly left the room.

Though no one had explicitly stated Gong Shiqin was their target, Zhao Wanru knew the moment she laid eyes on him that he was the one they awaited. Seize the initiative! Take control! These were the first thoughts that flashed through her mind after she regained her composure from his stunning beauty.

From the first wave of nine fiery slashes, Lu Qingyu realized each brought him a different benefit.

Given the hardness of the mud, if it fully solidified, Lu Qingyu would have no hope of escape. So, as the mud was about to set, he launched a desperate assault.

You have become famous, your friends too—why do you still trouble me? Luo Chen was ready to cry, but tears would not come.

"Yes, my lord!" Zhao Yun, Dian Wei, Guo Jia, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, and others all bowed and answered loudly. Then, leading the Reincarnation Legion and the White Horse Cavalry, they charged towards the army of zombies, which stood motionless after the death of Qin Shi Huang.

Zhao Qian felt a bit embarrassed and puzzled as everyone stared at him.

Heavenly Dao Pain knew well how strong Shinra Tensei was in its current state—and precisely because he knew, he understood how difficult it was to achieve what Wei Yilin had, requiring immense power.

Thunderous explosions raised clouds of dust. Tobirama's Water Vortex Blade, the Third Fire Shadow's Fire Dragon Flame Bomb, Orochimaru and Jiraiya's combined jutsu—all erupted simultaneously, as if the entire world trembled.

Only now did he realize the subtle fragrance came from Zhao Qian, the teammate he'd worked with all day.

Of course, that was unimportant; what mattered was Nangong Sheng's sudden, unusual behavior, which caught Ye Chen's attention.

This time, the streamer was down on his luck—before absolute strength, all schemes failed. Who could reason with that?

Though the likelihood of this situation was low, Ye Chen still wanted to be prepared.

Two men arrived, both dressed as Chunin. From their brand-new vests, it was clear they had just been promoted.

When she was at her wit’s end, Lu Sui sent her a key, saying it was an apology and she could live in that hotel forever.

Chen Shenglong shook off the chili oil on his hand, wiped his suit, picked up a leather case, and tossed it to Ju Changpeng's feet.

Ji Qianheng frowned—it seemed his chosen profession was being treated as a joke. If his guess was right, the mistake likely wasn’t his.

Yan Rongyue, in a pale blue dress, squatted beside the fake Heart-Binding Jade Lingzhi, her eyes filled with curiosity.

Shi Zuizui refused to follow him. Though her hands were bound, her legs were free. She aimed carefully and kicked at Lu Sui’s lower body, but Lu Sui, hearing the wind, dodged aside, avoiding her sudden attack.

Upon hearing this, Chen Youyuan turned to glance at Ye Ning. The words he wanted to say got stuck in his throat.

He withdrew a purple suppression talisman from his spatial ring. Dark energy flickered at his fingertips, and the talisman instantly entered Xu Qingshu’s dantian.

Tang Qianhua needed surgery. Wen Sui was dispensable at the company, so she took leave and devoted herself to caring for Tang Qianhua in the hospital.

Jiang Han cared nothing for tenderness. He kicked Zhou Min in the chest, forcing her back five steps.

Somehow, behind Jiang Dashan stood a figure shrouded in black.

The shop was already packed to the brim, not a single spot to crouch, and leaving was nearly impossible.

Lin Li and her group found the departure of Feng Zijian and his mother unreasonable, yet could not guess their reasons.

She had never been afraid of anything in her life, but this time, she was terrified—she thought she was doomed.

In those days, everyone in the Sky-Time Realm was far from possessing the power needed to explore the Path of the Similar Flower. Even a lifetime of effort would not suffice. Only five living fossil-level figures in the entire realm could hope to tread that road.

Now, this news for the bureaucrats and gentry of Fengxin County was as exhilarating as their eldest sons passing the imperial exam.

The two women weren’t in a hurry; they raised their heads to watch the stars, while Mingcha and Wusha kept guard nearby, as if preventing her from approaching Fang Tianche’s room.

For this reason, the royal house of Zhao had to compromise with the Shi clan, leading to the saying, "All the lands of Great Zhao are held by the hand of Shi."

When he inadvertently looked up to see how far Hua Qingyan had progressed, he found the object in front of her hadn’t moved at all.

In September, Chen Baxian raised an army in Jingkou, overthrew Wang Sengbian, forced Xiao Yuanming from power, and Xiao Fangzhi ascended the throne as emperor.
