Volume 1, Chapter 35: Crisis

The lady who had been gloating on the side was stunned, completely unable to fathom the logic of the Marchioness of Wen'an. Little Master Shi was clearly the one being framed, so why was the Marchioness blaming her instead?

"Isn't that your motto? 'Peaceful years, all is for the best!'" He Ming smiled as well, his words clarifying to Ye Chen why he spoke that way. Fortunately, after a period of treatment and the consumption of several healing pills provided by Chen Zhongyuan, his jaw had recovered, and his speech was no longer so terrifying.

"Howl!" A terrified bestial cry suddenly erupted. It was a demon wolf, the closest one to Zhang Deshun, that suddenly 'exploded' and lunged toward the skeleton.

Colonel Monka was also covered in bullet holes and riddled with wounds. He set down his axe, and a pile of shell casings clattered to the ground with a crisp, rhythmic sound as he moved.

"Is that so? And what is difficult about that?" the old man said. No sooner had he finished speaking than the barrier sphere he occupied suddenly dimmed and vanished, taking him along with it.

Chen Hao narrowed his eyes; the situation was much as he had anticipated. Originally, there were three Changsun brothers: the eldest, Changsun Jia; the second, Changsun Bo; and the third, Changsun Feng.

After entering the Foundation Establishment stage, although he had set up two layers of spirit-gathering arrays outside the vortex in his body, absorbing spiritual energy at several times the previous rate, his three major cultivation techniques had also advanced to higher levels, making his progress even slower.

Gu Shaoyu had not yet withdrawn his finger, and the thunderous judgment from the heavens had yet to descend. Wangquan Baye flew into the courtyard, his heart aching as he looked at the wounded disciples covering the ground. These were the pillars of the Taoist League, yet now they were beaten to the brink of death.

"The cage is ready. As you requested, it has been placed in an open area; being in the suburbs, such spots are easy to find," Ivan reported to Ding Hao ten minutes later.

"Yes, sir. The data shows that a powerful energy reaction occurred near the Arbiter at that time. Countless beams of energy, like lasers, sliced through the entire ice sheet and the mountain itself," Jarvis replied.

Elisa did not know why the Queen had suddenly changed her mind and started helping Qiu Xuan, and she grew anxious. The Queen, observing Elisa's expression, shook her head slightly and whispered, "I have my own arrangements." With that reassurance from the Queen, Elisa felt a little more at ease.

At the very least, she wanted to see clearly and feel deeply whether this man was taking responsibility only because he owed her his life, or if he truly loved her.

Jiang Dong followed closely behind. With his current Saint-level Lightning Body, entering this sea of thunder was effortless; not even the deepest, darkest lightning could harm a single hair on his head.

A twenty-meter-tall dragon was a rare sight, let alone a twenty-meter-tall giant. Given Chen Xing’s current physique, not only could he crush this blue dragon as easily as stepping on a grasshopper, but he was also in no way inferior even when facing the Titan race.

The Sword Saint, Huoyun, and Alfonso exchanged glances and nodded in unison. Qiu Xuan said, "Begin." As soon as his words fell, the three, who had been prepared, channeled all their power into Qiu Xuan. At first, they were somewhat concerned about Qiu Xuan's capacity to endure and did not exert their full strength.

He had even destroyed the stability of the entire nation, plunging an already chaotic situation into even deeper disarray.

This wedding was destined to be unprecedented. As the groom, Qiu Xuan had become the talk of the town.

Ye Ruxi hurried out of the house, but her mental state was poor, and her walk was unsteady. Forced by necessity, she called Xu Chuan to drive while she sat in the back.
