Chapter 46

A Yuan consists of 129,600 years, and every nine Yuan cycles, the previous Demon Emperor must pass away. The four subordinate Demon Kings then engage in a deadly contest to seize the "Eye of the Demon Emperor," and only the ultimate victor may ascend as the new emperor.

Zhen Wanting finished speaking and gave Yue Longtian no opportunity to reply, immediately heading to the dressing room. Yue Longtian stared in surprise at the doorway, sighing inwardly. After all, he had wronged Zhen Wanting; whatever attitude she showed him now was well deserved.

Di Chongxiao finally understood why the Barbarian Sovereign had just appeared so amiable, like a kindly grandfather next door. He could only grimace, speechless. This time, he had paid dearly.

Yan Fei infused his magic, and a faint light flickered. His conversation with Old Will began to project onto the room’s wall, accompanied by Will’s image.

Yue Longtian walked to the detention room’s door, peering out through the window. He saw Yu Haiqiang following behind Sun Daomin, not forgetting to glance back at the door.

Ren Shuixin smiled gently and waved her hand. Her left hand brushed across the stone table, and a tea set appeared. Xuan Lengyou and Long Huafang, both exquisite beauties, stepped forward to pour tea for their elders.

The mutated tree ignored everything else. When the black energy from its branches touched the trunk, the entire tree suddenly began struggling violently.

"You still dare talk back? An esper’s senses are incredibly keen—how could they not notice your actions? They just didn’t know you were wielding the Ghostslayer Sword, and you drew it right away," Li Mu said irritably.

Song Lingyan, now recovered, still had a trace of disbelief in her eyes, gazing at Lu Qingyu as if she were looking at a monster.

Xia Feng said solemnly, "For Hero Huang’s sake, let those nobles wait!" Xia Feng was eager to go to the capital, hoping to pay respects to some influential figures before the year’s end and strengthen relations; time was tight.

However, Chisheng Tong’s face showed neither panic nor solemnity; instead, an odd smile appeared, forming a stark contrast with his battered body.

If only the situation with the box wrapped in pink cloth had been explained earlier, I wouldn’t have bothered with what was inside.

The scent of flowers drifted everywhere, the fresh aroma of green grass, white wild rabbits darting through the meadow, and occasional birdsong—all was thriving and full of life.

Zhen Yuanzi smiled and led Kong Xuan, surrounded by disciples of Five Villages Temple in moon-white robes, together to the rear garden.

Along the path from the storage shop to the passage, many magicians lingered.

"If I don’t return to the tent?" She wanted to exercise and see who could stop her.

Kong Xuan commanded, "Go!" Instantly, the twenty Sea-Stabilizing Divine Pearls radiated dazzling seven-colored light, carrying the force of worlds as they struck fiercely at the heavy, deeply collapsed void above Kong Xuan’s head.

Yet such battles invigorated the experts! This was exactly what they wanted to see—at this moment, all that mattered was the consciousness and skill of both sides. What was revealed could easily inspire new insights.

In truth, Tianhu still doubted whether Xiao Wei was really strapped with explosives, since ordinary people wouldn’t dare take such risks.

"To keep the balance, things are quite delicate now. I need to find some help. By the way, once this jade bracelet is handled, I’ll need to take it, since that was your original promise, and it’s my payment for others. How about it?" I then discussed the jade bracelet with Liu Sanshun.

Walking to the riverbank, one more step would be onto the iron chain. He looked back at Ge Yunsong, who signaled him to move forward.

Looking out, the scenery was tranquil and harmonious, a pastoral paradise as if untouched by the world.

Yang Jian wanted to ask about the current power rankings—what level was the Spirit-Linking Realm, exactly? But Tiantan said little, only that if Yang Jian got accepted by the school, he would naturally learn more in time.

Zhao Huaiyue and the others immediately began searching at the base of Soul-Burial Cliff. The newcomers joined the search party, looking for Feng Xueye and Fang Yegong.

Repeated shadow explosions decimated an entire regiment of Wei soldiers, leaving only two and a half companies; the rest were killed in the blasts.

"Fortune favors the bold. Let’s go take a look," Luo Tian said firmly, then helped Chang Bao’er down the stairs.

Old Jiao Ji beamed with joy. The illness that had troubled him for years finally seemed curable. He grew ever more respectful toward Wen Yiming—living by the blade, meeting such a master might someday save his life.

Jack simply found the surrounding flowers and plants beautiful, unaware of their true value.

"OK, virgin!" Linge made a common gesture from Mercury, hitting Yu Haiping like a hundred thousand blows.

The killer wasn’t announced, but any keen observer could see it was the Dean of Jixia Academy who had acted.

When the time comes, Qi Wei will simply say the wounded who came for aid lost consciousness and couldn’t find the way, easily muddling through.

The seven in the sea… Though Pan could enter the sea, once fused with Pan, I should be able to as well, but considering evolved creatures and monsters surely lurk there, the dangers are great, so it’s not an option for now.

As they spoke, Shen Jiannan’s stomach growled audibly. Hua Meiyan heard it and couldn’t help but laugh; to spare him embarrassment, she quickly turned away and chuckled in secret.

In an instant, the ice wall was sliced into countless massive cracks, sending chunks of ice and shards flying.

Fortunately, he had seen such spatial powers in his dreams and had some experience, so he knew how to respond.

Everyone turned toward the sound, and saw a delicate beauty carrying a clay pot. She stood about 1.67 meters tall, dressed in a pink blouse and green skirt that covered her chest, which was quite prominent—Ran Fei nearly lost control at the sight.

He bought some black soil to store in the Universe Butterfly, planning to spread it over barren land once the space expanded. This way, his family could enjoy a carefree pastoral life in the apocalypse.

"No worries, no worries. Please sit, Boss Mei," Dongfang Liang greeted with a smile, his expression not matching his inner feelings.

The commotion from the running terracotta warriors was already considerable, but as the three-tailed wild oxen charged, the ground shook violently as if struck by an earthquake. Frightened, the oxen ran headlong.

"You clearly knew long ago that the band I mentioned on the phone was acquainted with you. Why didn’t you tell me sooner?" Zuo Shishi reproached.

"Very well, let’s go to the entrance and catch a cab." With that, Zhuo Nan turned first, preparing to leave.
