Volume 1, Chapter 60: Murder?
At the very beginning, that was indeed the case. The problem was that such accumulation was non-renewable and would eventually be completely exhausted.
That's right, the mist was indeed descending from above bit by bit. If one did not look closely, it would be utterly impossible to notice.
That doctor of mortal-grade strength, Young Master Yan, and he himself—they had all been in direct contact with Xiaxia, which was why their illnesses broke out earlier than anyone else's. When he noticed that Guaiwai was growing weak for no apparent reason, he should have paid attention.
"I didn't say anything! Sister, don't tell me you're already missing that guy just after he left!" Chu Yang said with a playful smile, hooking her arm through Chu Qi's as she teased.
Through this battle, Taishi Ci truly came to admire Xu Chu's martial arts, while Xu Chu was equally captivated by Taishi Ci's resourcefulness. Gone was the sharp, tit-for-tat rivalry they had displayed before setting off.
Yet these three materialized essences were still not the most troublesome part! Because aside from them, two others actually possessed flying treasures and had already risen into the air, heading straight toward Longxing.
This was divine light, originating from the City God Temple of Jiang County in the mortal realm. It embodied the prayers of the masses and relied upon the divine office of the City God.
She also understood that the man kissing her before her eyes was precisely the one she had waited a millennium for, the one who had finally returned. He gave his answer through this very kiss.
Sister Liang broke down instantly, wailing bitterly. She truly had not expected that the tender young man who had only stayed at the Changfeng Tavern for a single year could be so deeply affectionate and loyal, repaying her in such a manner after so many years apart.
"Why are you in such a hurry? Is there something important? Shangxiang misses you, her older sister, terribly!" General Huang made a polite gesture inviting Li Lan and the four tiger guards to enter the gates of the Sun Mansion.
Strolling along slowly, though without a specific destination, Yang Xiaodan was clearly still quite familiar with the area around the Nanjing University of the Arts.
When Qin Tian dialed Xu Furong's number once again, it was evident that Xu Furong had absolutely no intention of answering Qin Tian's call at that moment.
Qingyun felt a surge of joy in his heart and immediately said, "Senior, to tell you the truth, in order to save me, my fiancée's physical body was destroyed, leaving behind only her complete soul, and she has not yet formed her Nascent Soul. Might Senior know a method to revive her?" With that, Qingyun looked at Lie Xuanzi with hopeful eyes.
That strange fragrance grew intense once again. Xiuyuan's horse neighed as if startled, rearing its front hooves and pacing on the spot. As Xiuyuan sought to calm the mount, the dark figure slowly lowered the hat it was wearing, revealing a snow-white face in the pitch of night.
Yi Tong's mouth dropped wide open in an instant as she stared fixedly at the wooden board. It took her a long time to snap out of it, and her very first action was to give Zhang Yazi a ferocious beating, leaving him completely bewildered. Urged on by Xinyue Hu who was standing nearby, Yi Tong finally restrained herself somewhat.
Therefore, Gongsun Qingxue did not care too much about whether the environment was harsh or not.
"Rather than having others take it away in the end, it's better not to give it to you at all," Tongtian said with a smile.
Even Lion-Dust and his sister received praise from chieftain Yajue. Although the supplies they received were not abundant, such rewards were already considered the most generous among the Yaba demon clan.
Barely pushing through the crowd to reach the central stage, she still failed to see the Luochuan she was looking for. Just as she pulled out her phone to make a call, someone knocked it out of her hand onto the ground, grabbed her by the wrist, and forcibly dragged her into a nearby private booth.
The moment Han Mingchao heard Ouyang Ying's tone of voice, he knew something must have happened. Otherwise, given Ouyang Ying's personality, she would never have been so silent.
Smashing straight through a large tree, the minotaur appeared completely unscathed. It let out a roar, grasped a giant axe, and slashed toward Dongfang Xiao and his companion.
And while this Type-66 gunboat had been decommissioned for many years, outsiders had no way of knowing that it had remained firmly under the control of the Luo family.
"En, I suppose so!" Lin Xuexin hesitated for a moment before speaking uncertainly to Xiang Yue.
Moreover, releasing the Primordial Undying Body once took a tremendous toll on one's own constitution; unless foolproof, Xue Hao would definitely not do such a thing.
He Ziyan muttered inwardly. Consort Xie was hardly paving the way for herself; clearly, she coveted the position of Empress Dowager within the inner palace, which was why she had no choice but to sacrifice Ye Zhenzhen to win him over. Now that the two of them were taking what they needed from one another, he did not voice it aloud amidst his smiles. Instead, a faint blush stained his cheeks as he bowed submissively to Consort Xie.
"Fortunately, His Majesty has few heirs today. Right now, with only two sons fighting for the succession, it has already resulted in innocent commoners being afflicted. If one or two more were to pop out, what on earth would happen?" General Sun beat his chest in frustration, his overflowing anger finding no outlet.
Luo Yu hurried over, snatched the mirror straight out of the wardrobe, and began examining it closely.
"I see you are all very familiar with the surroundings. How did each of you come to this branch?" Dongfang Xiao asked with a hint of curiosity.
"Hehe, try my specially prepared tea." The young man smiled, placing two exquisite jade cups before the two of them, though the tea inside was pitch black in color.
"I have troubled the Madam. With the imperial envoy's arrival, I'm sure you have much to attend to. I won't delay you any longer; please return first," she said.
Tang Yu frowned in contemplation, looking very calm. At that moment, he received a message sent from the Red Wall, stating that the Dragon Gate had manifested over Sun City in the Northwest, and furthermore, someone had reported seeing Dao Kuang together with another white-haired old man.
Unaware of the full story, although they felt Kong Renyi was just boasting, they still hoped what he said was true.
Lu Qingci was weeping, and upon hearing this, Lin Yourong hurriedly came out to look. Seeing Tang Yu grasping Lu Qingci's hand with a fierce expression on his face, she instantly gnashed her teeth in anger.
Meanwhile, the players of the Evil Dragon Team were busy boasting about their battle achievements to those around them, while the Eagle Team began to bury their heads in deep thought.
As for "Demacia," because he kept trying to use his ultimate skill, he was constantly busy and had no spare time to deal with the enemy's crystal nexus, even though the nexus was right before his eyes.
At some point, the clamor gradually died away. Many people unconsciously put away their mockery and impatience, as if infected by the dark red figure in the center performing three kneelings and nine叩ings at every ten steps. Solemnity appeared on their faces, and even their backs subconsciously straightened considerably.
