Chapter 52

Lei Lie. What kind of person are you really? Why is it that no one can kill you? Xie Wudao panted as he asked.

With that, the face opened its mouth and inhaled the four-colored rays once again, while the remaining fifth streak of gray origin flashed and instantly formed a giant sword! This giant sword was as tall as ten thousand zhang, spanning across the entire heaven and earth. With just a single swipe and pull, it had already slashed a massive fissure into the sky.

Meanwhile, Li Ningyu hurriedly began searching the jewelry displays for a necklace suitable for Sarah's cute and lively image, but at that moment, a strange voice came over, saying, "Country bumpkin, if you can't afford to buy, just say so. Don't make up so many excuses!"

"Get lost, how disgusting. When you run into trouble, you think of us, but when you're wining and dining in normal times, you don't look for us!" Fire Phoenix then turned her head to say to Ice Snake, "Hey, Boss, you're here early, come give me a hug!" As she spoke, Fire Phoenix spread her arms and walked toward Ice Snake.

Tumbling and soaring through the air, the giant roc turned its body, its golden eyes staring straight down from the sky at Tiansheng.

Oclyton was instantly deflated, feeling deeply alarmed that Carthage was under such terrifying surveillance by Deoania.

"Sister Qiujin, look, this is the cloth doll Third Sister-in-law gave me. Isn't it cute?" Jingle held one up and waved it, smiling with such pure innocence.

"Who is it? You're chatting so happily?" A man's voice came from the other end of the phone, presumably Ke's father.

The old man had a benevolent face and wise eyes, possessing a demeanor left behind by the weathering of history. However, the elder's vitality was restrained and his eyes were murky, as if he had reached the twilight of his life. He accepted the spirit wine and nodded in gratitude. It was none other than Su Wanli of the Qinghe Su Clan.

No one paid any attention to Deputy Political Commissar Su standing nearby, leaving him with an extremely ugly expression. He also understood that once again, he would be unable to exact revenge on Long Bing.

"How dare you utter such wild words, I think you're asking for a beating!" Donghuang Zijun was already burning with rage. He picked up the sword on the table, leaped into the air, and with a single strike, cleaved the table used by those people into two halves.

"You look down on me?!" The man's previously calm, water-like pupils seemed as if a deep-water bomb had been dropped into them, instantly surging with huge waves, as if wanting to swallow all people and matters related to him entirely.

Although Immortal Qiu looked down upon mortals, he could mingle easily among them. For instance, at victory banquets, he would eat and drink with them every day without the slightest air of an immortal. However, this did not mean Qiu Ren had a good temperament.

"Return it to you? You really are naive. Were you kicked in the head by a donkey?" Tan Jun did not show Minister Huang an ounce of respect. Perhaps in his eyes, the person before him was merely of utilitarian value; otherwise, he wouldn't even be worthy of being his subordinate.

As they walked on, the trail of the corpses was broken. This should have been the final battle site, yet there was still no sign of the eccentric divine doctor.

Tianxuan's expression changed drastically, and the Devouring God Monument trembled violently inside his body. If not for the control of the monument spirit, it probably would have burst out uncontrollably.

As for the rest of you, step up your defenses immediately and maintain close observation. We cannot abandon a single city. Use whatever you can—formations, sword arrays, bring them all out.

"Brother, what you should be thinking about right now is Xingan." Beibei told him very directly, leaving no room for doubt, as she now had proof of her absence from the scene.

Until the guests panicked and retreated from the hall, the dark shadow darted like lightning and quickly vanished into the darkness.

Looking at Shenlie, whose face was even redder, I figured I wouldn't be able to pry anything out of her and simply gave up.

The Shen family was in the south. If Zhu Xuan had the mind to return to the capital and join the army, he could also take this route; of course, he had been avoiding it these past few years. Reaching the Shen family in the March weather, the south was warm and spring flowers were blooming.

Long Tian wanted to make another move to deal the Fourth Prince a finishing blow, only to find that his body refused to obey his commands; try as he might, he couldn't move at all.

Qin Jiangfeng had already tried his best. There was nothing he could do if he couldn't produce that much money all at once. In the end, he had no choice but to give up.

This time, Su沫 neither nodded nor shook her head. She stared at him with wide eyes for a split second, then wrapped her only remaining arm around his neck and kissed him.

Her line of sight caught the panicked face of Han Ziyi, as well as the furrowed brows of Qiao Mingyuan—there was no Sumo, no her.

A thought muttered in her heart: How did this child find out? Weren't such matters kept from her? Every day she went out to contend with others, only wishing to see utter peace and warmth on Yumiao's face.

"Those who pass will be rewarded with twenty enlightenment pills, alongside one martial technique and one body/movement technique of corresponding rank," the old man continued to announce.

Shen Qingjun was in a hazy daze, remembering only vaguely that last night she seemed to have encountered that terrifying monster once again. It teased her, chased her, and sought to put her to death.

Yet Qin Wu was filled with disappointment. Xiao Mo was not in the palace city, which meant she had no opportunity to see the palace city either, nor any way to let the palace city know her situation.

Yet Lord Sun did not know that the cousin before him was not his cousin at all. While some fondness for Sun Shuang'er existed, there was no profound affection to speak of, so how could he possibly fall for such a clumsy attempt at provocation?

After pondering for a moment, he simply shook his head to himself. Soldiers will be blocked by generals, and water will be blocked by earth; he would just take things as they came and counter every move.

In the capital, officials of the third and fourth ranks were so numerous that tossing a stick could hit several of them. Princess Anya had always maintained a disdainful attitude toward Wang Liaoluo, who followed behind her, feeling that associating with her lowered her status, and had consistently ignored her. At this moment, however, the gaze she cast toward her carried a bit more gratitude and sincerity.

Afterwards, Luo Fan and Yang Yu also walked over slowly. The two of them had ceased fighting the moment Yuehua made her move; after all, continuing to fight would yield no result. Rather than that, it was better to save some energy.

After Sun Haochi entered the grand hall, almost all the high-ranking members of the Flood Dragon clan had already gathered inside, and Dragon Zhan, the patriarch of the Flood Dragon clan, was also present.

Thunderbolts vibrated and the dark qi dissipated, the two forces blending and canceling each other out. In the end, the spike pierced into the formation, passing right through it. The formation shattered with a loud crash, dispersing into a sky full of blood mist that lingered in the dark starry sky.
