Chapter 53 "Take this sword of mine!"

Xia Huanjiao was exceptionally clever and instantly grasped the underlying reason.

Bai Lianyi deliberately brought up Lin Xiao in front of these demonic cultivators precisely to signal her connection to him.

Given that Lin Xiao was the most notorious cultivator to have fallen into the demonic path during this period, they would undoubtedly have heard of him.

Out of regard for the formidable Lin Xiao, these demonic cultivators would likely spare Bai Lianyi's life.

It had to be said that bringing up one's connections among the demonic cultivators at a time like this—

"I'm off then, sorry to trouble you, Sister Xia," Yun Xi said as he opened the door and entered the room. Xia Ying had practically become his protective talisman.

"Haha! Piaochen, you cannot be blamed for this. This is a matter of life and death for the Green Sea Palace; as the sect leader, it is only natural to be worried!" Suddenly, a hearty voice echoed through the grand hall.

"Just these?" Qian Wubing's mind buzzed. These terms weren't just acceptable; they were simply too good. The items of this Great Ming Dynasty were things of the present here, but if placed over there, they would be antiques with a history of several centuries.

Throughout this round of engagement, in a flash of lightning and perilous combat, the two sides had already exchanged dozens of blows. The thin old man's feet had barely touched the ground when he suddenly moved again. In the blink of an eye, he soared into the air with the fierce swiftness of a hawk striking the vast sky. Instantly, he appeared directly above Ouyang Wuji, and a tiny point of cold starlight abruptly magnified before his eyes.

Yun Xi suddenly wondered if giving only money for Wang Tianba's wedding seemed too tacky. Should he give him something else? Since Wang Tianba was supposed to be practicing celibacy, should he send him a few inflatable dolls?

Meanwhile, Sarah, who had been standing alongside Croke watching the battle, also noticed that Croke's entire body was somehow suffused with an aura of anxious restlessness.

One could see an animal resembling a deer running through the forest, making it hard to imagine that this was truly a room inside a colony.

A typical fitness center really didn't have equipment as complete as one had at home. As for whether Stephen had alternative motives, it was hard to say, but neither Mo Xueru nor Situ Yulin refused. Situ Yulin even joked that it saved them the cost of a hotel room for the night.

"Your interpretation is not entirely wrong! However, you still have two choices to avoid this bloody and tempestuous massacre," the head of the Peng family said with a cunning and sinister smile.

"Thanks to your blessing, Your Ladyship, everything is going smoothly." Shopkeeper Liu led Su Xiaoke toward a private booth, but before the group could even ascend the stairs, their path was blocked.

Li Qinghou arrived upon the wind, descending slowly into the purple bamboo forest. He walked straight through the grove toward the main bedchamber, entered the practice room, and holding two energy-infused purple crystals, sat cross-legged to begin his cultivation.

As Su Xiaoke's business grew larger, the silver she earned naturally increased as well, and she gradually began to overlook the matter of the fish pond.

The tattooed man looked angry, and the iron rod in his hand shook slightly, revealing that his inner composure was not as steady as he appeared.

Chairman Xia's words left Wei Xiahai completely speechless. Indeed, apart from this method, what other options were there?

The Golden Flood Dragon King tore through the sword aura with both hands, consumed by rage. Its massive body, a hundred meters long and over a dozen meters in diameter, blazed with brilliant golden light. The dragon veins along its spine emitted a dazzling, captivating golden radiance, drawing forth the golden glow from its back. Then, parting its jaws, it spat as a sphere of light slowly began to condense.

Immediately following this, lightning flashed and crackled wildly around the dragon shadow, accompanied by a continuous series of popping explosions.

Just as Mu Tianran was about to purchase the heart-shaped pendant, an off-key voice suddenly rang out.

High in the sky, Chen Fan still stood against the wind. His body was enveloped in a radiant purple glow, and within his dark eyes, a terrifying sword intent pervaded.

"Believe it or not, you have to! In this lifetime, apart from me, your man can only be me!" Lu Liting's domineering words fell just as he captured her lips in a kiss.

"Even toward commoners, the Great General is capable of treating them with courtesy," Yu Mi replied absentmindedly. She was still brooding over what had just happened.
