Chapter 37

From Wang Jue’s words, he seemed to have noticed something and was just about to speak when a booming laugh came from outside.

Deng Gang had said that the equipment we wanted would be difficult to obtain and that he needed some time, so he first booked us plane tickets back to Lijiang and promised to have everything ready within one or two months at most.

“The Gate of Hell?” Yang Jian muttered. The outside world called Death Valley the Gate of Hell. Who would have thought that the true Gate of Hell was actually here? But what exactly was inside?

More than a dozen beams of light flashed forth and struck the skeleton. With a sweep of its massive hand, the skeleton dispersed the spells or slapped them aside.

The reason the opponent had been able to kill the three Hua brothers in an instant was that the three of them had not made sufficient preparations. They had also placed too much faith in their own defensive abilities, leading them to misjudge the situation.

Wind made no sound. Only when it was obstructed did it produce a squeaking noise. But in this vast, flat, uninhabited land, how could the wind possibly be obstructed?

This was not the sound of clear speech, but a strange sonic energy that was powerful and capable of attacking the soul.

At that moment, Yun Yu’s body was already as tough as that of a top-tier demon beast at the late or peak Spirit Realm. Once the True Phantom Demon Body Technique began circulating within him, the strength of his body reached the level of a body-refining cultivator in the Profound Spirit Realm.

There was not a trace of emotion on Yingjian’s face. She was as calm as if she had merely killed a nuclear-level creature in her daily routine. Not only did her expression remain unchanged, even her gaze did not waver. This was not the first time she had killed someone; otherwise, she could never have remained so composed.

Yang Jian felt the malice of the entire world, as though there were no longer any place for him beneath heaven and earth, as though the whole world had abandoned him.

Although the probability was extremely small, if the fellow before them truly managed to surpass his own limits, then they might never return.

Since she did not know what else to do, she chatted with the priest for a while and eventually mentioned her awkward situation. To her surprise, they arrived at such an utterly absurd conclusion.

But after she readily agreed, she noticed that Zhan Li’s gaze had grown increasingly deep and unfathomable. Coldness churned in the depths of his eyes, and she immediately realized that he had been deliberately testing her from the very beginning.

“I know, Father. But I’ll come back to visit often once everything this time is over.” As she spoke, Gongsun Xiaoyue left without looking back.

One had to understand that using magic in a battle formation was not something a novice mage who had just entered the battlefield could accomplish easily. Many mages could serve only as indiscriminate artillery even after advancing to the rank of spellcaster. How could they possibly cooperate with ordinary soldiers so smoothly?

“You gave me such a satisfying beating today. This prince has decided to treat you all to a meal!” Wang Tiangou stretched, and his bones crackled loudly.

The first friend on the list was named Night Blossom, and her messages had been muted. When he opened the chat, it was filled with invitations to join game parties. There was no need to ask who had sent them.

“Not bad,” Gu Aocheng replied casually, continuing to read the newspaper in his hands. Xia Ziyuan snatched it away in a fit of anger and tossed it aside, then braced one hand against the back of the sofa.

Mu Ronglan’s face grew unbearably hot. She turned her head away, unable to say anything, and merely nodded lightly.

There was some truth in what he had said. When he had been sulking and destroying things everywhere, nearly half a galaxy had indeed been affected, and countless planets had been reduced to cosmic dust.

At that moment, Liu Yu made up his mind. No matter what happened, he could not let his mother and younger brother suffer. Even if it meant entering the Di family as a slave, he could agree for the time being.

Thus, within only a few minutes, the young man was strapped to the electric chair. A series of faint shocks had already left his face pale and his body drenched in sweat.

It was said that this man’s mastery of magic was unparalleled, surpassing even firearms and artillery, and that he was impervious to blades and bullets, capable of shifting his form and changing positions in an instant. In short, no one knew how much of it was true, but the rumors had become increasingly fantastical.

Ling Hanrui remembered the team members he had once led, their faces filled with admiration whenever they looked at him. Seeing these new recruits, whose expressions were utterly blank, he felt a little sorrowful—but even more than sorrow, he felt a surge of fighting spirit. He would make them acknowledge him wholeheartedly.

Thinking of what Chuxue had said, Liu Mengyan suddenly understood. She reached out, picked up the lotus-seed dessert, and carried it to Madam Shen.

After changing into another set of clothes, Wang Dali returned to Colson. The moment he heard those words, his expression darkened. What was wrong with being a security guard? Did they look down on security guards? And what was someone like him supposed to do, when even his application for a security-guard position had been rejected?

Xiao Zhan was slightly taken aback, but he did not give it much thought. In his view, the so-called senior was merely a friend Xiao Yan had met in Wutan City.

It was only an autumn outfit. It was still summer, and autumn was a long way off. She could simply find some time to make it; it was not as though she were making it for nothing.

As Lu Chengfeng gazed at the blood-red flower on the Other Shore, compassion suddenly welled up within him. At once, a fragrance identical to the one surrounding Shangguan Xing’er wafted into his nose. Before long, however, he began to feel faint. Before he could call out, his consciousness grew hazy, and he finally collapsed into Shangguan Xing’er’s arms.

Heng Kong already knew the incantation. Delaying any further would seem affected and unnatural, contrary to his true feelings.

Ximi was deeply worried, but the illness of his heart could be cured only by himself. There was little others could do beyond offering a few words of comfort.

He would not accept her feelings, yet he gave her a bland, perfunctory word of thanks in return. That wooden-headed Huo Ziling made it impossible for anyone to put on a pleasant face around him.

Yuan Che moved like lightning, appearing behind one of the puppets in an instant. Grabbing it by the neck, he hurled it toward the transparent, distorted sphere of light.

Holding a large bundle of freshly picked roses, she presented them to Young Master Wugou. He patiently examined them one by one before finally selecting a single stem.

Yuan Che was beginning to lose patience. His only goal was to obtain a place in the Five Elements Heaven. He had no interest in becoming involved in the internal power struggle of the Yuan family.

In the middle of the night, Ning Xia vaguely felt someone kissing her. She let out a breathless moan, yet did not open her eyes.
