Volume 1, Chapter 35: An Unforgettable Night

After making thorough inquiries and confirming that the Pine and Orchid Friends were indeed translating something related to the Divine Firmament Sect, he brought foreigners to their home to force them to surrender the object.

"And it cannot be just any ship; it must be an oceangoing vessel. The rebel navy’s warships are all large oceangoing ships, and their maneuverability is far superior to those flat-bottomed river boats," Wang Ce added.

Countless water elements gathered toward the red sun, wrapping it layer by layer. Snowball fought with increasing courage, charging fearlessly at the red sun and tearing at its scorching flames bite after bite.

This was exactly the opportunity the two needed. Coordinating with Dongfang Xiao’s internal energy, they both dodged to the sides. Seeing the opening, how could Dongfang Xiao let it slip? He accelerated his primordial spirit and charged outward, escaping the encirclement in a few flashes.

Li Muyang knew that neither could convince the other at this moment. Since there was still some time before facing the old monster, he would make other plans later.

"So many years have passed; surely, he must be dead by now..." Jin Meng asked softly. Everyone feels an innate fear of the unknown, and Jin Meng was no exception.

If those energetic and impulsive young men didn't vent their frustrations by bullying him every day for no reason, they would likely have committed even more extreme and terrible acts against others.

Even with spiritual power that surpassed that of ordinary people, Long Fei dared not easily create too many shadow clones. For one, it would dilute his strength, and for another, it was dangerous. Of course, he also lacked the chakra required for such a feat.

Yang Yi ran over and picked up the crystal shoe. It was heavy in his hand—at least two or three pounds, he estimated. It was exquisitely crafted, truly a shoe made of crystal, and incredibly beautiful, especially under the lights, where it shimmered with colorful reflections at the slightest movement.

Of course, deep down, he never imagined that the tenth prince's two hundred warships could truly be wiped out in such a short time. After all, even in the Battle of Dongting, the Song forces had far more ships and failed to achieve such a result.

Furthermore, with the emergence of Awakened individuals, the strength of Qin Yuxue and the others seemed somewhat lacking, and the techniques they practiced appeared to be of a lower grade.

Ye Motian gave a cold sneer, suddenly grabbed a gold coin from the table, and with a flick of his wrist, sent it flying toward the shopkeeper’s counter.

In truth, this was the first time she had been carried by a boy. Her fair face flushed with shyness, though she did not quite understand why she did not resist Gu Bo carrying her.

Putting away the Dao-rhyme demon core, Lin Chen felt an inexplicable surge of excitement. Looking at Li Zhenyuan, who was listening intently to his web of lies, a deep, knowing smile appeared in the depths of his eyes.

"You are truly impatient," Li Daoyu narrowed his eyes slightly. The more eager the other party was, the more he felt the Lust-Devouring Pig must have other powerful uses. With a wave of his hand, a red jade plaque at his waist erupted with crimson light. Array patterns emerged, distorting the void, and a Lust-Devouring Pig, bound by the seals, appeared before them.

When grabbing it, Zhang Buque could feel its strength. He estimated that three or four of these creatures would be enough to satisfy their hunger.

It was truly ironic; despite being "blade-heads" themselves, they feared killing. Yet, the person killed this time was Duan Tianjin.

After finalizing the share agreement with Song Yunqiang, Song Yunxuan immediately asked Mei Qi to contact a lawyer to draft the share transfer contract.

Wu Renxin’s expression darkened further, though Chen Zheng’s actions were within expectation. Back in high school, his relationship with Gu Bo and the other two had never been good, and they had even had several conflicts.

"Can you tell me the use of the Lust-Devouring Pig now?" Li Daoyu forced down his impulse. He had to ensure he received the information before using lightning-fast methods to kill him instantly.

In particular, although these corpses had long since lost their vitality, the power they faintly exuded was far beyond what they could hope to reach.

The next morning, Yun Ruoruo saw Fang Xu out of the lobby. However, neither of them expected that the moment they stepped outside, a large crowd would swarm them, followed by the sound of camera shutters and a barrage of overwhelming questions.

Not far away came the sounds of a fierce battle. Beneath the reflection of purple spiritual energy, Ziyue looked valiant and heroic, like a god of war, as she severed the heads of the Nine-Infant beast one by one.

Yun Ruoruo did not know why Fang Xu was so certain, but she had never doubted his words, so she decided to meet Feng Ye first.

With orders from Tian Guang and Yan Dan, the disciples of the two factions, who had previously been intent on killing the enemy, immediately launched a frantic assault on Fusu’s reinforcements.

In just ten breaths of time, they charged nearly a mile. The cavalry left behind black shadows, looking from afar like a long, black dragon.

Although Lu Chuanfeng escaped, the Heavenly Thunder Cavalry behind him did not all get away; many horsemen were still trailing behind.

Looking at the time, it was already past eleven o'clock at night. Teng Han was relieved that his father had gone to sleep before midnight; this way, if he practiced until tomorrow morning, it would be equivalent to seven days of training. Thinking of this, he turned on the spiritual gathering device, connected to the magic treasure terminal, and entered the "Otherworldly Paradise."

That dark energy had actually existed within his body for a long time, but he had never noticed it, let alone deliberately cultivated and improved it. Now, since he needed to strengthen this energy, he had to practice it separately.

And slaves were the lowest existence in this world. Some lower-class citizens with weak battle energy, low magic power, and no background were captured by slave traders, fitted with slave collars, and forced to perform menial tasks.

Was Zhong Zimu really with Bai Qianqian out of a sense of responsibility? Did he really still love her? Su Ziqi sat on the dining chair, her thoughts in chaos, only to see Zhong Zimu gently wipe a piece of lint from Bai Qianqian’s neck.

"This daughter greets..." Feng Wu braced her body, intending to salute Jiang Li. Before she could say "Empress Mother," Jiang Li stopped her.

Su Ziqi left the wine house. She looked back at the building, which resembled an ancient-style restaurant from the outside. Such a low-key place was surprisingly luxurious inside, but unfortunately, those who entered were filthy people.

Yesterday in the car, Nimi had only glanced roughly through the rearview mirror and saw a wound on Su Fan’s chest, but he hadn't seen the nature of the wound clearly at all. Only now did he truly see it.

However, decades ago, after the Tianyuan Emperor ascended the throne, he had ruthlessly begun the first suppression of sects in ten million years.
