Chapter 38
"Damn it, I've lost my point of reference. What should I do, Zijin? I've forgotten if I was still two steps away." Ye Zi'ang tried his best to look toward the broken wall from before, hoping to re-establish his position from the start.
Ji Mo bit her lip, clutching her collar tightly with both hands. Her clear, large eyes were wide with a pitiful, nervous, and helpless expression as she looked at him.
Moreover, there were four bodyguards surrounding Link right now; no one could guarantee a successful move, nor did they know when such an opportunity might arise. Yet, stopping Link was an urgent matter.
Upon entering, Qian Duoduo naturally played the host, though his expression this time held a hint of unease and trepidation.
By then, Han Bing and Han Xue had both arrived behind the three members of the Lianyun group. Others quickly gathered around as well, remaining silent but wearing faces full of curiosity.
As Li Si finished speaking, Lianyun naturally realized he had gained a space for storing items—a sensation quite similar to the Yin-Yang Heavenly Realm he had experienced before breaking through to the Monarch level.
He Zhiyuan felt quite happy upon hearing the first half of the sentence, but as soon as Tang Kexin delivered the long-winded second half, his upturned lips instantly dropped.
It didn't matter if Link was playing the fool. Elber's task was to secure the orders in his hands, or at the very least, sell the wind turbine units that had lost their orders. Only then could they offset the losses incurred by failing to win the land bid.
Qiu Lianghan, the leader, caught a signal from Qingsu's gaze. He forced a smile, stepped forward, and reached out to take her hand.
System notification: Yang Chao's Shadow Demon killed Zeng Qiang's Bounty Hunter, gaining 375 gold coins.
"Ling Fei is part of the combat unit and isn't suited for this. Send Ling Zhan; he is in charge of discipline," Ling Yun said. Ling Yun knew the rules set by Cang Jianli; these men had been trained by him to be too bloodthirsty, so having a constraint was for the best.
Before he could finish, Lu Yun felt a pain in his ear. Following his gaze, he saw his "cheap aunt" pinching his ear, looking at him with a hint of reproach.
He scribbled frantically on the paper, tears streaming down his face uncontrollably. He struggled as if trying to escape something. The result he had spent the entire afternoon thinking about was destroyed by his own hand. He collapsed, facing the choice between life and death for the very first time.
They desperately wanted to ask Mu Sen what was going on, but the situation did not allow it. As the Human Emperor Chengtian withdrew, the frozen Yao Yixing and the remnants of Xiaotian regained their ability to move.
A golden bead remained at the spot where Gao Sen had vanished. With a thought, Luo Hao reached out and plucked the bead into his hand through the air.
The next day, Shengjing Zero had arrived at the center of the Bohai Bay estuary. The wind and waves here were indeed quite turbulent; though not enough to churn the seas, the winds were fierce and the waves were high.
Lu Yun looked up at the sky, which was obscured by a demon fox radiating powerful demonic energy. The fox was bound in pitch-black chains, standing atop the mountain like a divine punishment. All the foxes on the ground were running about anxiously, and the pink fox leading them watched the giant fox in the sky with a worried expression.
In the future, as the significance of the Silk Road became more apparent, Chang'an—as the eastern terminus of the overland trade route spanning Central Asia and the capital of the greatest empire in history—would be crowded with people from all across Asia.
Xu Xuan recovered from her shock and looked at Chu Ming, who had saved her at the critical moment, her face full of surprise.
After Li Yan finished speaking, she made a hollow gripping motion in the air, and a graceful, imposing purple longsword appeared in her hand out of thin air.
Lu Bo also took the opportunity to process Harry's social security number and registered Harry's name under his and his wife's names.
As they spoke, both of them ran toward the imperial wine, wanting to prove that it wasn't river water, but that the people of Liangshan were deliberately trying to make things difficult for them.
After looking around, they discovered that this was merely a slightly larger room, and the light barrier from before was nowhere to be seen. It was clear they had been teleported directly to this location.
According to Chen Ziyang's estimation, the depth of this tomb was about a dozen meters, so he needed a great deal of wooden planks for reinforcement. If the planks were too heavy, he might not be able to carry enough materials at once, making the digging time-consuming and labor-intensive, requiring multiple trips for transport.
Therefore, the suppression was also a form of protection. As his strength increased, the chains would be unlocked one by one.
"What? You're going to Shennongjia? I've heard there are wild men there, and many wild beasts. It's a desolate place. What are you going there for?" Liu Yiyi frowned when she heard Qin Tian was going to Shennongjia, unable to help but speak up.
Rhemerson had already begun selecting his position the moment Li Liang chased after the ball. He was certain that Li Liang would continue to break through toward the center, just as he had in the past.
No one had participated in the entire process of the matter, but the cause and effect, according to Helian Chun's account and the truth provided by Zhan Xingyu, combined to suggest that the truth of all events seemed to be just that.
"Whether it's the truth or not, I won't leave this place. You all should leave quickly; do not stay here. This is not a place you should be," the Human King said somewhat impatiently. He did not want to harm the ghosts; after all, he too had his own unspeakable reasons.
His master once told him that he would never have a family again in this life, and Leng Feng was the last passing acquaintance he would have a long-term relationship with in his life.
Indeed, Blood Rose had a well-proportioned figure and a cold, aloof face—the very image of an ice beauty. She had shoulder-length blue hair, the ends of which were smooth and rounded, as beautiful as melted crystal.
After reading the skill description, Xia Yu understood immediately. Wasn't this just the "flying kick" from fighting games?
"All is fair in war, Miss Lily. Pardon me!" Nuyan Tianya approached with a sliding step, delivering three consecutive slashes, and arrived in front of Ou Lei in an instant.
Bianhua, Nan Xingyun, and the others continued their discussion, but Ou Lei was too lazy to listen any further, so she went straight to the sewing room at the Shuangye base.
For a moment, everyone fell into silence, looking at one another, not knowing what exactly to say.
The old man's determination regarding the Medical Conference had been very clear, and the members of the He family all knew what this conference represented. Why, then, was he letting the boyfriend of He Dongqiang, the least favored daughter, compete?
Feng Zhan, however, felt that his younger sister was the most amazing. He believed that even if she were asleep, she could still listen to the lecture.
Listening to everyone's discussion, he felt very confident about his current recruitment, believing that Lin Fan would surely agree.
He had seen his master, Lin Fan, crafting equipment, cooking ingredients, and even hunting and making clothes, but none of those had produced such strange phenomena.
"However, do you think drawing me away is enough? Without the Danhui Sword, who can be a match for Yiming!" Feng Jiuxu raised his sword-like eyebrows, placed the Alchemy Furnace in front of him, and the air instantly became scorching hot.
"I thought you were upstairs and couldn't come down, so I specifically went up to invite you, only to find I had missed you again." Min Pengyi hadn't even sat down before blurting out that long sentence.
