Chapter 53: Conditions

The atmosphere froze instantly, turning grim and heavy.

Wang Yunkai gazed coldly, and after a long moment, he suddenly let out an enigmatic chuckle. With a deeply emotional expression, he turned to Captain Liu beside him, "Look at that, these young people nowadays, how can they be so reckless in what they do?"

He intentionally paused, his gaze sweeping over casually as he glanced sideways at He Wenzhou, dropping hints to pressure him, "The road is..."

Helian Xi stepped forward and gently lifted her foot. Sure enough, he saw that her ankle was slightly red and swollen, undoubtedly injured by the chains that day.

The current situation was crystal clear: Zhang Jianzhi and his faction had no desire to shake their own standing in the imperial court and in Li Xian's heart on account of Wu Sansi's affairs.

The first two lines of the slogan posed little problem, but the third line, "Battle the Ancient Decaying," was fraught with hostility. Any disciple of the ancients would likely feel deeply uncomfortable upon hearing it.

Zhongli Yingqian had once told him that Li Xian's vertigo had reached the point of walking on thin ice.

However, tempered by the baptism of that intensive training, aside from mastering tactics, her mindset had undergone a quiet transformation.

Chen Fan could not help but grow cautious; he felt it was extremely strange why not a single Sky Cloud Sect disciple could be seen in the vicinity.

Over on his side, Lei Jin was training mercenaries inside the summoning tower. When Mo Li called out to him, he rushed out in a panic, assuming Mo Li had some important matters to arrange. Who would have guessed that after hearing the reason, Lei Jin would be completely dumbfounded—that he was called out simply for such trivial things.

Yet she was not made of wood. When such an exceptionally brilliant young man confessed his feelings to her in this manner, she could not remain entirely unmoved; at the very least, a tiny trace of warmth stirred within her heart.

"What are you closing the door for! Didn't you see me coming?" Ou Yuer propped the door open with her hand, glaring at Malloy with a fierce expression of utmost displeasure.

"Answer my question first, what is the China Association doing here?" Fan Renlei asked expressionlessly.

The scenery around him was receding at breathtaking speed. Yagyu only felt himself hurtling forward in a state of weightlessness, surrounded by flashing folded spaces of all kinds, bizarre starry skies, and both micro and macro worlds.

Everything boiled down to the most practical and crucial issue: eating well and drinking well. One had to survive first before they could practice cultivation, otherwise they would starve themselves to death before achieving any results.

Even the Blood God Hall Master, a powerhouse at the late Marrow Cleansing stage, had fallen beneath Fang Xu's single sword strike. Knowing their own self-preservation abilities fell short of the Blood God Hall Master's, they dared not linger for even a moment. Clinging entirely to wishful thinking, they hoped desperately not to be hunted down by Fang Xu.

Under the thunderous impact of the sound waves, the flying gravel was instantly pulverized into fine dust. Qu Jie stood on the ground looking up, his face frozen in utter astonishment.

Monk Yun and Monk Xile left the Thunder Sect on the fifth day after their arrival. In their own words, they simply wanted to see what Planet Yue was like.

Seated above, the First Elder grasped a cloud-headed walking stick and tapped it against the ground, signaling the elders below to quiet down.

As the stench of blood permeated the air, the surrounding savages all went wild. They frantically clawed and scrambled, shoving whatever they grabbed straight into their mouths. The once-orderly group instantly descended into chaos as they fought amongst themselves, the scene of biting and tearing truly savagely brutal.

A brilliant lotus could be seen gradually transforming from formless into tangible; its petals were as crystalline as morning dew, its stamens like silken tassels, while thousands of rays of brilliance cascaded down, the divine light and multicolored mist anchoring the spirit.

Xu Wan snapped back to her senses and hurriedly went to the front hall, busying herself to piece together a few doses of medicine. As she stepped outside with the medicine, Su Zhan sensed that the gazes of the people around him were somewhat peculiar, as if they were looking at a rare animal. Yingxiu also felt it was rather odd—they had merely picked up a few doses of medicine, so why was everyone looking at them with such strange eyes?

The Heaven Evil Emperor and the Primordial Heavenly Demon both struck simultaneously, unleashing their full power to attack the Demon Emperor, leaving the Demon Emperor no opportunity whatsoever to retaliate.
