Chapter 63: The Top-Tier Chip Expert About to Drown (4)

Zhou Peng and the others originally intended to take the opportunity to lecture Lu Kuanhou, but upon catching Jia Yimei’s warning gaze, they forced themselves to swallow their words.

The Illusory Moon Cavern—its conditions for opening were practically a ten-to-one death sentence, and the same applied to slaying the leader of the Divine Fire Cult. Of course, special circumstances were excluded from this.

The man in black possessed formidable spiritual energy and was on high alert. As Feng Liu struck, he forcefully pulled Mu Qingqian aside and dodged the attack.

Although I no longer knew what I ought to do, right now, I truly wanted to make everything turn out right.

Just as I was about to speak, the old ghost from the Miao family made a silencing gesture toward me, as if signaling me not to speak any further.

Countless stars dotted the night sky, and the moon hung high. In the tranquil night and the peaceful forest, the group did not light a campfire. Autumn nights were not excessively chilly; they simply leaned against one another and fell asleep.

At that exact moment, the man with gold-rimmed glasses felt terror toward Wu Kong that reached the absolute extreme. He had no idea how he had arrived here, nor did he understand why this seemingly harmless young man was able to lift him up with a single hand seemingly effortlessly. Yet, his intuition told him that the young man before him was terrifying.

The school leaders recognized Ye Hao and hurriedly offered explanations for him. To prove what they claimed, they even revealed certain secrets that were not usually meant for others to hear.

Just as they were about to make a move, a group of people stepped in to block them. These individuals were all subordinates of Mr. Guo.

"Very well, dealing with you one by one is far too troublesome. How about this—let the remaining cultivators attack together. After all, it's impossible for you to defeat me anyway." Ye Hao’s voice rang out once more.

Unawares, the deep night had arrived, and sleepiness began to creep in. Fortunately, there were still some lingering embers beneath the barbecue grill. I added a few more pieces of charcoal to stoke the fire back to brightness, then arranged the chairs in the thatched shed side by side, hugged my coat, and lay down.

Glancing sideways at the curled-up form of Yao Tie, accompanied by the muffled sound of low sobbing close to his ear, Jian Ya’s eyes could not help but well up with a layer of mist, moist and blurring her vision.

A Jiu felt a deep sense of emotion within; talking with intelligent people truly saved so much effort. It seemed that in the future, she would not need to worry too much about the affairs of the Splendid Firm. If things went smoothly, the Yuanxiang Store should not be far off either, right?

Unawares, a full year had slipped away. Gazing at the increasingly familiar scenery outside the train window, it turned out that I had ultimately chosen to return—even though a voice deep within my heart had constantly reminded me not to come back, lest seeing the old places stir up old grief.

Aside from supreme treasures of heaven and earth, Young Master Mu could not imagine what else could possibly emit such a powerful primordial force.

The terror among the surrounding people lasted for merely a second, because Yang Chong and the enemy facing him had only been in a standoff for a single second as well.

It was not until the very end that Su Yi figured out what they were worrying about. Although this gang of bandits had been wiped out, there was no guarantee that another wave would not follow. If there was no martial family in this town to maintain order, once Su Yi left, bandits would inevitably emerge here once more.

"Linger, Linger, are you alright?" The bottomless abyss was pitch black. At this moment, speaking aloud, Young Master Mu retrieved a luminous night pearl from his spatial ring for illumination, searching everywhere for Linger's figure.

Now, there were still a few laughable humans waiting to play with him; Ragnaros was in no rush to kill them. He simply intended to use his flames of death to evaporate them all away, bit by bit.

The Capital Garrison was the army responsible for defending the imperial city, historically commanded by the Son of Heaven. However, with the emperor falling ill, the command of the Capital Garrison had quietly been usurped by Yu Kui.

Sure enough, Moyan, who had just been lying in her arms at death's door, abruptly stood up. Composedly, he shed his blood-stained outer garment and put on a fresh, clean one, though his complexion remained somewhat pale.

"May I ask how this child was found, and where she was picked up?" Fang Zhihang cast a gaze as sharp as a blade toward the two whispering figures, yet instantly turned gentle and courteous the moment she faced the elderly grandfather.

After a moment of silence, Lin Zhener rolled up her sleeves to reveal arms covered in overlapping red knife scars.

Rong Wannian, who had quietly stood to the side watching the commotion, could not help rolling her eyes. It wasn't as if no one had warned you; you simply refused to listen.

Moreover, five years had passed. Many people had moved away while new ones had moved in. Coupled with the fact that the buildings here stood as standalone structures rather than multi-layered stories, neighborly relationships were not particularly close.

"Venerable Medicine, what brings you to my Gu Clan?" Gu Yuan asked, a trace of doubt flashing in his eyes as he looked toward Yao Lao.

Following repeated warnings from the Glory Society—which was keen on sweeping matters under the rug—and the subsequent "vaporization" of a few overly curious individuals, everyone else essentially chose to quiet down and cease their activities.

After all, even if the other party exposed previous recordings later on, he could simply claim they were synthesized! He could flatly deny that any of those things had ever happened, having already placated anyone capable of testifying.

If all of them were wiped out... no, even if they were simply absent, it would make it far easier for the chaotic faction to launch a fierce offensive.

Upon receiving the pass, Gasol exerted force with his back, but Powell held the advantage in strength. After failing to carve out space with two consecutive attempts, Gasol directly turned and shot, only for the ball to miss under Powell’s interference.

Yu Mengdie’s eyes instantly filled with astonishment! Liu Qingqing gripped Yu Mengdie’s hands tightly in terror.

"Xia Haoyu, that phone call of yours, I heard it..." I had no desire to conceal anything anymore. Given his current state, he likely just wanted to have an honest talk with me. Besides, I had done nothing wrong; what was I afraid of?

"There is no need for such courtesy, Guild Master; we are friends!" Princess Mashi said hastily, well aware of Jia Zhengjin's true identity.

Those two rules were quite conventional, and Li Zhishi nodded in agreement. What surprised him, however, was the subsequent segment that resembled a lucky draw.

Song Jiang was a pivotal figure for Wu Sheng’s transmigration to this place; even if it displeased Li Shishi, he had to meet him.
