Chapter 62: Peculiar
Zhang Feng was out for sightseeing, not to cause trouble for himself and Murong Xin'er. Therefore, whether the car was wrecked or something else happened, his first thought was to let bygones be bygones if possible.
"Very well, if the two ancestors need anything, just call us," said Xiuyun and Xiucai.
When she returned to the villa, it was already rather late. The house remained just as it was; because nobody had been home for a long time, much of the food had spoiled. She cleaned out the refrigerator and swept through the house, aching all over from exhaustion. Checking the time, she saw it was already ten o'clock.
Su Qi altered her voice, waddled like a duck as she walked over to Wei Zi, and even reached out to lift Wei Zi's chin.
Although the lower half of his face was covered by a mask, his deep-set facial features and stern contours exuded nobility and mystery.
Ji Tianchen felt a sense of relief, smiled faintly, and simply leaned against the remnant of the statue, crossing his arms to watch the spectacle.
Since it could not be stopped, he would use this power to shatter the shackles in one fell swoop, which would also divert the energy. If he could break the shackles of life, his body would no longer malfunction, and at that time, the power of life would reach its peak.
Ever since he began practicing that set of "calisthenics" and traditional Chinese medicine, he rarely fell ill. When he occasionally caught something, he would go out to find medicinal herbs and decoct them himself.
The guards retreated in low spirits, and when Jun Qingyan turned back to pursue, Chu Go had already vanished without a trace.
Su Heng traveled all the way to the Potala Palace, arriving just as it was blanketed in heavy snow. Looking as far as the eye could see, everything was a pristine white, save for the rolling palaces and fluttering colorful prayer ribbons that added a touch of vitality.
With a loud clatter, the ball struck the rim, bounced almost vertically, and as it descended, tilted slightly inward. It was precisely this slight deviation that caused the ball to fall right through the center of the net and hit the floor.
Sasuke possessed both Lightning and Fire attributes, along with the potential for the Sharingan; indeed, no one was more suitable for him than Kakashi.
Sitting next to him was actually Li Mu from Xinguang Middle School! Seated on Li Mu's other side was his teammate Chen Peng. Tang Feng found it quite strange—did they not have a match today?
Steeling his heart, Li Qifeng drew upon all the internal energy within his body as if draining the pool to catch the fish, and in an instant, it surged forth, pouring directly into the Yuanhong sword.
"This kind of spiritual aura is the origin of all spiritual auras between heaven and earth; it is no exaggeration to call it the ancestor of spiritual aura." Amidst the gentle breeze, his face bore a serene and soft glow.
However, Yuan Long and Yuan Hu wore expressions of disdain, believing that Zhang Yiming was merely putting on a bluff.
Yet Tong Yan did not think that way. If the Netherworld perished, the mortal realm naturally could not escape unscathed. He was fighting not only for the Netherworld, but also for all living beings under heaven. Ever since he learned that he was the new generation of the Skywalker, he had already put life and death behind him.
"Is this how the Zhuge family teaches you etiquette? Hanging around with a complete stranger—you have truly disgraced the nobility," Zhou Yu retorted.
Shi Zhui and Qingzhi looked at the two of them in bewilderment. Why did their relationship seem to have suddenly grown so close?
Originally, he had thought Dilu would gloss over the matter, never expecting it to be stated so casually.
In his cultivation chamber, Xiao Wei stared at the wall in front of him and muttered with a cold chuckle, "I've kept a low profile enough, and I've been enduring it, yet you insist on forcing my hand. Do you really take me for someone made of clay? I suppose I must make you suffer until you wish you were dead, heh heh."
Looking at Chen Fei as he left his office, Luo Feng had no words to say. Seeing his confident demeanor instantly brought her deep reassurance, as if nothing in the world could ever defeat him.
Inside the private room, the boss bowed deeply with an enthusiastic smile, his plump, round face creasing into folds from grinning so hard. "What would my esteemed guests care to order?"
It was simply because the Second Branch had been suppressed for far too long, and the tales of Can Kong single-handedly smashing Crow City were recounted over and over by the members of the Second Branch; it was also because the Fourth Branch had grown somewhat overly arrogant, prompting members of the other branches to willingly exaggerate the affair.
"It's strange, I can't explain it. The only solution now is not to enter that cave anymore, and don't enter the fourth cave either. I have a feeling there is something even more terrifying in the last cave than what we just saw," the Super Brain said helplessly.
"Nine-revolution Dragon Flame!" The nine dragons intertwined and soared upward, and the purple flames instantly swallowed that lotus flower.
Bradley muttered, "Finally found them, right over there—it's those unlucky bastards." Bruylos asked, "What should we do, charge in and kill them?" Bradley replied, "Haven't you always wanted to know why I collect those useless weeds? Now let me show you the power of these weeds."
With a dark expression, McGrady said, "Which path can't we take? It's obviously dangerous, and yet you still want to take that path—what do you mean by that?"
"Old Li, what are you saying? If you hadn't sacrificed yourself to lure the zombies away, we would have been the unlucky ones," Qin Tian said as he put away his Desert Eagle.
"Why has the Duke come here? To such a filthy and chaotic place..." he could not help thinking, yet outwardly, he dared not show even the slightest trace of dissatisfaction.
Xue Jinian tilted his head, somewhat surprised by Hua Qian's sudden intensity of concern. Although she had always shown concern for him in the past, it somehow felt different from today.
The corpse crashed heavily onto the ground, creating a large pit. He had not expected that someone who looked like a dried mummy could possess such immense strength.
"This is strange. We thought the hidden door there was installed by you..." Sifeng walked in from outside at some unknown moment.
Being slapped earlier was simply due to a momentary lapse in judgment on Hua Qian's part. She had never imagined that someone fighting intensely would suddenly shift their attention to attack an innocent passerby.
"We are not selling our lives to the Eastern Depot; we are merely under orders to assist them. It is our duty, and we cannot slack off." These words were spoken for the benefit of all the brothers present, as well as for himself.
The police officers understood the situation quite well, as they had encountered such incidents many times before. Especially with the New Year approaching, there were plenty of people roaming the streets specifically to pull off extortion scams by staging accidents.
The Chinese nation is a people that has weathered numerous disasters, yet it is also a resilient, indomitable nation. Looking across the world, only Chinese history has never suffered a fracture, flowing mightily and continuously from antiquity down to the present day.
Qiao Xin asked Xiao Rui to drive back to Longmen Town by himself, while she, bersama (along with) Fatty Wu and Xue Binghai, headed straight from the county town to Zhutao Village.
"Hmph." Seeing that the fellow who had laughed until tears came out of his eyes finally quieted down, Zhou An'an gave a coy huff. When she saw how she was nicknamed in Zhao Ke's WeChat contacts, a fresh wave of annoyance washed over her.
