Chapter 36
"Perhaps it's because I'm closer to you, or maybe..." Ye Kaicheng paused, his hand movements ceasing. He tilted his head slightly to look at Xu Zuoyan, but his words trailed off.
In the end, Ye Feng could not make sense of it, so he simply let go of these doubts, stopped thinking about them, and calmed his mind to carefully review these secrets stored in his brain.
"Is this Yan Le? I'm Xu Yunyan. You saved us during the accident on the highway that day, and we exchanged contact numbers. Do you remember?" A melodious voice came from the phone.
The scenery outside the window gradually faded into darkness, with only a few scattered taxis on the road. She looked at her phone screen in despair, ultimately failing to bring herself to disturb Lu Shan.
The group felt the strange gazes directed at them, but there was not a trace of shame on their faces. Instead, thinking of their master’s god-like methods, they felt proud to serve such a person.
Wangcai noticed that I wasn't acting like myself and urged me to go home, coming over to pull me along. Xiaomei had been taking care of me and worked with Wangcai to get me home. Once I was back, I drifted into a daze and collapsed onto the bed. I only remember my parents helping me take off my wet clothes; I don't know what happened afterward.
Yet, at the same time, White Impermanence was actually monitoring their calls, and Xiangdou was silently working to decrypt them.
"Why are you sleeping at this hour? Don't go and get yourself jet-lagged. Regardless of anything else, you must go to school tomorrow," Ye Zhen instructed, speaking to Ye Xingtian’s retreating back.
The Uyghur and Hui players inside the vehicle clearly knew of Xia Qingfeng’s reputation, and they looked at him with nods of acknowledgment.
"Just out of curiosity. I’ve seen many stories on TV and online claiming that the Demon race eats humans," Mu Shishan said.
"I’m not speaking for him; I’m just being reasonable. The school’s rules and regulations are what they are. Principal Luo should be very clear about that," Zhang Ying shrugged helplessly.
Xiao Lei shook his head slowly. Recalling the battle between Xiao Tian and his opponent, he felt a wave of regret.
The group walked toward the arena and arrived shortly after. The arena consisted of a patch of grass in the middle where the fighting dogs would clash, while the owners and spectators watched from outside the fence. In the center of the field, a referee was in charge of arbitration. By then, the fighting dogs belonging to Dongfang Tianyi and the wealthy tycoon had already been released.
"Boss, Master Jin said he wanted to discuss important matters with the chieftains. What kind of important business could they possibly have?" Big Bucktooth asked.
On the other end of the video call was an elderly man with a long beard and the air of a Taoist immortal, who was stroking his beard while shaking his head.
The four great human empires of the God-Devil Continent are the Divine Dragon Empire, the Radiance Empire, the War Map Empire, and the Hailan Empire.
"Damn it, why is it them again?" Yan Xi emerged from the restroom, and upon seeing the people outside the door, she couldn't help but grow angry. She glanced at Mother Jiang and Jiang Kairan before walking toward the entrance.
The critical question was, would the God of Devouring obediently do as told? And after absorbing such vast amounts of elemental energy, would he use it to reconstruct a physical body?
The middle-aged man who walked toward the tombstone from afar had an unnatural expression upon seeing Mo Nianhua. Though he tried hard to compose himself, the lack of ease was plain to see. Mo Wushuang was certain that this middle-aged man knew her father, but they were not friends.
"Heh, that’s quite an idea, but I wouldn't dare agree to it. You’re so eccentric—everyone in the villa has been pranked by you. I’m not foolish enough to let you mess with me. What if you made me run naked down the street?" Xiao Chen chuckled and did not agree to her request.
Fu Wansi gave a faint smile, one so subtle that it would be missed if not looked at closely.
Dao Fanbai felt incredibly frustrated. If he had joined the fray, the situation could have been avoided, but his mental energy was too depleted, and he didn't want to personally participate in the attacks on Feng Fan.
Ye Bingyin and Di Yun walked through the streets, which should have been filled with poetic charm, under an umbrella, but they could no longer feel that atmosphere at all.
In truth, Tang Cheng was quite fond of this skill. Just imagine: when PK-ing with others, one "Vine Demon Entanglement" would instantly bind the opponent. Regardless of who they were, I could rush up and beat them soundly. If I could win, I’d take them out; if I couldn't, I’d just hit them and run. I’d like to see what they could do about it.
However, Mo Wushuang was no fragile Lin Daiyu. She knew she was in trouble, but she remained calm and composed.
Tang Cheng immediately changed his equipment. The adventurer's armor that had been glowing faintly was tossed into his inventory, replaced by the Gilded Armor that shimmered with a golden luster.
"Yes, you should know how important your card set is to our family. Father is simply curious. By the way, where did your card set come from? Have you already met Quan Quan?" Yang Yang frowned and asked.
"Yun Muyang, you really are beyond dense. The other gift is, of course, the baby in my belly," Mo Wushuang said with absolute confidence, pointing at her stomach.
Within the borders of the Heavenly Dynasty, it was inconvenient for him to ride the Void Kun, as it would be far too conspicuous.
Jiang Xia carried his and Jun Wan’s suitcases, while Jun Wan walked beside him with her own bag. Even though her face was completely covered, her aura could not be concealed.
