Chapter 38

Everyone was stunned by this scene. They had all witnessed the great serpent’s attacks earlier, and no one had been able to inflict even the slightest injury upon it. Yet, here it was, sent flying by a single blow from Yi. The eyes of everyone watching Yi changed in an instant.

Several black shadows emerged from the ground like ropes, binding their feet tightly.

For some reason, as Alisa fell asleep, Allen felt as if he had lost a spiritual pillar. The string that had been held taut within him suddenly snapped, allowing the grief in his heart to seize the opportunity to run wild once more.

Ahead appeared a river valley with a stream, its clear spring water rushing downward, cascading in a magnificent and turbulent torrent.

The sound of metal being drawn from its scabbard rang throughout the palace. The next moment, a broken blade stood planted before the Spirit God, separating it from Ye Li.

Then, she suddenly remembered the vegetables she had once planted in the courtyard and went to take a look.

Beneath that lay the true outer shell. The surface of the war chariot was as smooth as polished marble; one could imagine that if such a vehicle were to roll across a battlefield, it would remain pristine, unstained by blood.

Ouyang Shi pondered for a moment and immediately grasped his mentor’s intention. With the entire capital abuzz with rumors of the Celestial Master declining invitations, any incident involving the Master now would inevitably cast suspicion on Yu Jin. Ouyang Shi offered a flattering remark, nodded, and retreated.

The Yak Soul-Master glanced at him. "The demonic energy is relatively weaker during the day, which makes it the easiest time to set things up. Don't worry; once the grand formation is activated, the sky for thousands of miles around will be overcast with gloomy clouds, and the sunlight will not be able to penetrate." Yi was finally put at ease.

This was the dojo of the Master, the teacher of all under heaven. This was the place that even legendary figures of the martial arts world flocked to, and the forbidden zone that the three kingdoms of Tang, Shen, and Liang dared not touch.

Chen Feng finished speaking with a touch of humor, and under his influence, the gloom in Cen Kexin’s heart faded significantly.

However, she suddenly wanted to tease him. He had always been submissive and long-suffering in her presence; she wanted to see what he looked like when he was angry.

She hurriedly got dressed and went to Li Mengmeng’s room. It took several knocks before the door opened. Li Mengmeng stood there, disheveled and wearing a sexy nightgown.

Actually, it wasn't too difficult. The god-lord who had passed away last time had even helped Ye Shaoxuan, and he was largely responsible for Ye Shaoxuan’s breakthrough to the rank of Saint. But going up against him now was a completely different matter; he would surely be enraged and humiliated by Ye Shaoxuan’s mockery, and the danger level would be off the charts.

Thinking of this, Lady Lin narrowed her eyes. Perhaps she should investigate who among those lurking around Ye Zhen possessed hidden depths.

Long after, she finally looked up at herself in the mirror. Her makeup was a smudged mess; if she walked out like this, she would surely terrify someone. She rarely wore such heavy makeup, and this was the only time she had wanted to be sincere, even if she hadn't wanted to. She laughed at herself, took out her makeup remover from her bag, and began to wipe away the heavy layers on her face.

However, looking back now, I really do regret it. Back then, the teacher scolded me for my own good, didn't she?

"Let's go!" Yun Yan responded decisively, then set off toward the location of the inner city wall.

"Brother, did you go looking for Qian Qiyue?" Yang Jiahu asked, pulling the blanket over his face, his voice muffled. He didn't want to clash with Yang Jiazhen. Jiazhen had been incredibly good to him for so many years; if he truly turned against him, it would be heartbreaking. He didn't want to let his brother down, but he didn't want to give up on love, either.

"At the same time, Qin Shou, this is also your weakness. Remember, you must not let the enemy identify your ability before you use it, otherwise, you will be in a very passive position," Chen Qiang said.

The high-level officials of the Hetao region had a great fondness for Xiang Xing; after all, they were comrades who had walked out of Dingzhou together. Although they now stood on different sides, that did not hinder the friendship between them. Just like Ouyang Jingzhong—though he was the pillar of the Qingfeng Empire, that did not prevent Haotian and the others from respecting him.

"Do you all really want to go to the second floor of the tower so badly? Do you even know what the second floor is really like?" Hindered by the soldiers, the group’s pace had slowed. Taking advantage of this, Yue Lan, who had been wearing a dark expression, suddenly asked Nie Feng.

The remaining Japanese aircraft dived toward their designated targets, and many attack planes joined in the ground strafing. The twenty-two BF-109F multi-role fighters commanded by Gao Zhihang circled over Nanjing, waiting for an opportunity.

Even the Nascent Soul-stage Blood Eye could detect this strange phenomenon, not to mention the Demon King Jue Tian, the supreme ruler of the Heavenly Evil Sect. By now, Jue Tian must have known the secret that Lin Yu came from the Xuantian Sect. However, seeing that Jue Tian had yet to make any move, it was unclear what he was thinking.

"Alright, everyone, take the wine you’ve chosen, and let’s head to the beach!" Father Xi announced.

As it turned out, Luo Fu had feelings, but the gentleman was heartless. Poor Qingyu, her heart had been given to the wrong person. Fortunately, she did not know Leng Xun’s true feelings. Let her leave with her dreams, Jin Niang thought, silently closing the door behind her. She didn't want Qingyu to hear Leng Xun’s cold words; let her leave with some peace of mind.

"I’ve already eaten." Chen Qiang did not stand on ceremony. After the previous night’s turmoil, he was indeed hungry, so he slurped down the porridge. With peanuts and porridge, he finished two large bowls in no time. Refreshing; who knew that eating porridge could be this satisfying? Chen Qiang thought to himself.

But uncomfortable as it was, the most important thing now was to make the old lady see the value in the Fourth Concubine.

"Near this Ancestral Platform of the Yellow Dragon, is there any kind of canyon or similar place?" Lin Yu pondered aloud.

The Land of Inheritance had its own rules: when a descendant received an inheritance, others could not interfere. Everything had to be earned through one's own strength, so Huang Zhen did not express anything.

Since she had already arrived at the door, she couldn't just keep her waiting. Su Ge felt uneasy, but she had to endure it. She nodded, watched Gu Shen go to open the door, and then, after a moment’s thought, pushed her wheelchair to follow.

The Flame Demon Lion let out a low growl, seemingly dissatisfied, but bound by the contract, it could not resist Dongfang Xiao’s order and could only lie down on the ground obediently.

Since he had arrived, Tiger could not be overly sensitive about wanting to leave. Furthermore, General Will had certainly done this to curry favor with Teacher Enrique. If he insisted on leaving, it would only cause General Will to think poorly of him, leading to many unnecessary troubles.

By this time, the night was well underway. The bright moon hung in the sky, casting silver light over the earth. In the silence of the night, Bai Ruxing of the White Tiger Academy was burning with anxiety, waiting quietly in Ouyang Tian’s dormitory.

Hearing Ren Dong’s message again, Juan Niang couldn't find an excuse to decline. With a helpless smile, she tied on her dark purple gourd-patterned cloak, took the lantern from Ren Dong’s hand, and went out to greet Su Shixian.
