Volume One, Chapter 48: Cat and Mouse

So-called fortuitous encounters and opportunities are something everyone encounters; the only question is whether you can seize them! Lei Yu was considered fortunate, having seized every single one of them, which was why he had achieved his present success.

Sitting cross-legged on the bed, Wang Jie seemed to sense danger. He abruptly opened his eyes, his figure turning into a lingering afterimage as he rushed rapidly toward the door of the room.

Hearing Wang Jie's words, Sun Huimin's eyes turned red. Deep down, she understood that her son undoubtedly had much more important matters to attend to, and keeping them here would only cause him greater worry. Although she was filled with reluctance, in order to set Wang Jie's mind at ease, they had no other choice.

That was the outline of array techniques given to him by Ye Feng back then, personally written by Ye Feng himself. The last time they passed through the thunder array, Ye Ying had felt that there was still far too much for him to learn.

Moreover, on the island where he had previously established a temple in the Naruto world, there were also quite a few powerful snakes. He could go and inquire among the surviving snakes on that island to determine whether a white snake existed.

Once people let loose, there is no point in discussing boundaries; that entirely depends on whether you know how to let loose.

Whenever she spoke of everything that had happened back then in the Magical Beast Forest, Wenren Ya always remained indifferent, as if all those hardships had been endured by someone else.

He said, "Jinse, give me the dagger." Hearing his words, Jinse wanted to open her hand, but she found that her fingers had grown stiff, as if they no longer belonged to her, and she still kept them clenched in a death grip.

Anyue He crawled up from the ground, swaying as he walked before them, pointing a finger at their faces.

The green-haired giant hit the ground, glaring with a pair of ferocious eyes while clutching his severed arm, and let out a furious roar: "Get lost! I'm going to slaughter every last one of these lowly humans—they actually dared to cut off a piece of my arm!"

"Punk, look, that chick is quite a stunner," said a youth wearing decent clothes with a tattoo on his arm, speaking in a slacker's tone. What made him particularly striking was his dyed yellow hair, which accentuated his distinctiveness.

Chen Feng could not help muttering inwardly that someone like Weeping Soul could by no means be considered a "human." Yet Chen Feng immediately thought: the other party could likely perceive his own consciousness, so if he muttered that Weeping Soul wasn't human, would Weeping Soul find out instantly?

He belonged neither to humanity nor to any known form of matter. Perhaps only a non-human monster like Second Life could create such a mystical dao.

The cavern, devoid of those monsters, plunged back into silence once more, though Ling Zuotian did not feel that way. He seemed to sense the presence in the air of something he had encountered before, yet whose name he could not recall.

Although he did not know what kind of power Chen Feng currently possessed, based on the fact that he could rescue the couple from the Nine Waters Rushing Torrent Array, Du Qing and Lu Hong believed that Chen Feng would keep his word. Chen Feng had also made up his mind—the Seven Stars Sect no longer had any reason to exist.

"What is it?" You Zishi asked, as Su Yin gently tugged at the corner of his clothing from behind.

Yan San breathed heavily, his gaze filled with awe toward the rules of the universe. Previously, he had always thought he could alter the cosmic rules; now he realized that creating a cosmic rule and changing one was an entirely different magnitude of difficulty.

It was another instant reply. Yi Nianlin had already prepared to rest, yet late into the night, Fu Siying was still playing on his phone.

Such a performance was something Yi Nianlin had only witnessed in her past life while cleaning up after a ballet performance. At the time, she had thought the idea was quite good, never expecting she would actually get to use it.

"Tai Bai, the Heavenly Yan Immortal Emperor is dead. What should our next step be?" Chen Qiang dropped a bombshell. Tai Bai was frozen in place; the news was simply unbelievable to him. The man who had oppressed him for hundreds of years was dead. For some reason, however, no look of joy appeared on his face.

Qin Wushuang was powerless to resist. Facing death, she maintained her cold, indifferent expression, as if she feared nothing at all. Suddenly, a palm appeared out of thin air before Qin Wushuang and struck Jiao Liehuo. Under three pairs of astonished eyes, Jiao Liehuo was sent flying into the sky by the seemingly ordinary palm, before plummeting headfirst and crashing down, knocked completely unconscious.

In his hand, a crescent meteor blade glowed with black light and crackled with fleeting electric arcs, emitting an incessant, sharp popping sound.

"Teacher, has Huo Jun still had no signal these past two days? Could something have happened?" Xi Yizheng knitted her brows, her eyes filled with anxiety.

"We should get ready too; they won't hold out much longer." Liu Su frowned. Whenever matters of importance were at hand, he was always dead serious.

Slowly withdrawing his astonished gaze, Jiang Chen wore a bitter and frowning expression as he calculated endlessly in his heart: with so many people here, when would his turn ever come in line?

"Brother Xiaoyuan, I can't hear Lele's voice at all?" Liang Liang asked Huang Xiaoyuan nervously and strangely.

"Brother, stop running! I still want to go play at the zoo later!" With that, she casually helped him relax his muscles. Her brother's training intensity had been excessive today. If he didn't loosen up now, he'd be in for a miserable time later.

When Lu Xia woke up, it was already late into the night. Young Master Yan had left after sending her back. Lu Cang had been guarding her bedside the whole time, and seeing her wake up, he hurriedly reached out to help her sit up and propped a pillow against her back for support.

Liu Tianhao felt a wave of mixed emotions regarding He Miao's hospitality. At present, he possessed neither scholarly honors nor fame, so He Miao naturally had not heard of him. Under such circumstances, if he wished to gain entry into He Miao's grand hall, his only usable bargaining chips would be gold, silver, and wealth.

If they were to completely dispatch a large army to forcefully reconquer the territory, the optics would be far too unsightly, and they wouldn't be able to give a proper justification on the surface.

The Dragon Ball was already in hand, so Ye Yun naturally wouldn't linger. He found a relatively secluded spot and directly summoned the divine dragon. The dragon did indeed look mighty, but unfortunately, it was all show and no substance; otherwise, Ye Yun really would have liked to pack it up and take it with him.
