Chapter 41

Tainero was already furious, and seeing Simbani step forward to speak did little to ease his anger.

Just then, he happened to reach a horse stall, and the horse locked inside began neighing loudly as well.

With a grim, cold expression on his severe face, Yin Xu walked toward Crown Prince Xiong Xin’s throne in the hall. Everyone hurriedly moved aside, clearing a path for him.

“Were you sent by Fan Bai?” Fan Eolin’s status was far higher than that of these people, so he was rather arrogant.

Amid the bloody air mixed with raging sand, the trio led by Jian Wushuang rushed to the head of the city together with more than a thousand top cultivators from the Sand Demon Cavern.

Now that he had suddenly discovered he had fans in Huaxia—and that one of them could even speak Korean—how could he not be excited?

After lying in the car to rest for a while longer, Baobao finally carried the food inside once all the guests had left.

Unless… Feng Qian had offered her stakes large enough to make her willingly abandon all her reputation.

“This Soul-Seizing Secret Art can indeed make my cultivation surge in a short period of time, but the damage it causes me is even greater,” Jian Wushuang thought to himself.

“Auntie, Auntie, you just kissed Uncle Baobao! Hee hee hee…” Ying’er leaped over, giggling.

Admittedly, there was nothing inherently wrong with this method. However, once one encountered a cultivator in the same realm, the effect of the strange flame became negligible.

He had saved the patient’s life with a single move and even guaranteed that someone suffering from cerebral infarction could recover within a month. What did that mean?

A gift that was too lavish would be inappropriate if it surpassed Yunlin and Yunning, and Huaxi could not afford it anyway. But if the gift was too modest, Yunyi, Yunxin, and the elders of both households would lose face.

“All these venomous snakes have poison in their blood—and it is deadly poison. Once it seeps into the soil, not only animals but even grass will be unable to survive.” Li Jiafu sighed repeatedly. It seemed these snakes had left him completely at his wit’s end.

Upon hearing this, Asakura Yoshinobu immediately gave the man beside him a meaningful look. It would be inconvenient for him to speak personally; some things were better said by someone else.

As Huang Yifan returned to his seat, he suddenly leaned toward Daoist Canghai and whispered something into his ear.

A message suddenly arrived. Su Qinghan opened it and glanced at the contents, but his expression barely changed, as though he had anticipated it long ago.

Yunlin had been struck in a tender spot by Lady Xiao Wu’s retort. Her pretty face turned deathly pale. She glared fiercely at Lady Xiao Wu before turning around and shooting Huaxi a sharp look.

No one knew why she had cried yesterday, or what Old Master Chen had said to her. Chen Yanxi had not let anything slip during their phone call today, so presumably no one had discovered the matter yet.

The Northern Saint’s cheeks had flushed red, whether from anger or embarrassment. She nearly ascended from sheer breathlessness. The old woman had given him a Living Spirit Immortal Fruit, and he had actually presented her with a box of local specialties. Was that even remotely appropriate? Did she look like someone who lacked local specialties?

A face like an angel’s, a figure shaped by divine craftsmanship, and a voice as old as though death itself were near—who else could such a person be but someone capable of slipping through layer upon layer of defenses and entering the Combat Resort without anyone noticing?

“Grandfather… I’m not leaving. If you die, Ling’er will die with you,” Zhao Ling’er said through her tears.

Xiu’er knew she could no longer kill Li Jihong. A trace of desolation flickered in her eyes. Then, with the last of the strength in her right index finger, she flicked the slender blade away. This time, it was not aimed at Ling Tian, but at her own throat. Ling Tian lightly flicked a finger and gave a slight tremor; the blade fell to the ground. Then, with a surge of force, he sent Xiu’er tumbling into his arms.

Everything at the water plant had essentially fallen into place, and management of its operations had once again been entrusted to Leng Ruobing. Xiao Han and Ren Fengyao were secretly delighted in their hearts, yet their faces remained dissatisfied as they headed toward Flower-Fruit Mountain.

An awkward atmosphere lingered between the two of them, but neither spoke. It was not until a flight attendant came over to demonstrate how to use the parachute pack in an emergency that Leng Yurou secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

The Spirit Root Freak, gravely weakened, had long since lost the will to fight. With a flicker of his body, he revealed his true form, seized Xiuluo Jiayan, tore open the chaotic void, and vanished in an instant. Only after they had left did Yang Nan transform back into human form. His stern face was suddenly filled with exhaustion, and he no longer possessed the imposing presence he had shown earlier.

That was why Huang Wanqin was so delighted by the youth’s breakthrough. She could no longer imagine how significant it was.

Seven or eight minutes later, I left Huayin Village with my wife and children and returned to Oasis Village. Then I left the village again and headed toward Wild Horse Camp.

The scenery of the Heavenly Realm continued to change, eventually fading into a darkness of empty space. The Sealing-God Ark grew brighter and brighter, while the terrifying devouring vortex of the Stele of Heavenly Dao Creation tore everything in the Heavenly Realm into spiritual energy. The billions upon billions of divine laws laid down by the Ancestor all flowed into the stele, followed by the destruction of the Heavenly Realm.

“So Zunsun Ji decided to marry her?” Qin Qianjue asked, furrowing her brows as she voiced her conjecture word by word.

It was already remarkable that they had managed to hold on until now. The instant the three of them saw Haotian, they were struck as if by lightning, and incredulous expressions appeared in their eyes.

So rather than saying that he would truly have such thoughts at any time, one should ask what kinds of changes might take place.

After leaving the residence, Qingrang never expected to witness so soon the very scene she did not want to see. Huashuo came riding over, but failed to stop in front of her in time. Though he urgently pulled on the reins, the horse’s hooves still came to a halt at the neighboring Fang residence.

If she said that Hui Chi Fang Qiu Shuai was handsome, she would be giving him an opening to claim that she had feelings for him. But saying he was not handsome would be an outright lie. So she tried a third answer, only to be skillfully led into a trap by Baobao again. Baobao, you are truly formidable.

Retana dismissed the old grievances with a single, offhand remark. Her sharp blue eyes looked at Z with cold indifference, as though he were a complete stranger.

The earlier passage dealt with the many possibilities confronting him now. Given his own abilities and advantages, he truly could bring about all those changes.

It was not that she did not know; she had simply been struck by thorns too many times, and no longer dared to trust easily. She would rather give herself no hope than allow herself to be disappointed again.

He tossed and turned until midnight, when Jin Guangyan finally began to feel the haze of sleep descend upon him. Yet his sleep was far from peaceful. Her words—“Why not let me go now?”—circled through his dreams like a curse. Perhaps because he had not slept enough, he was not in very good condition. Even so, he forced a smile and went downstairs to eat with his mother.
