Chapter 33

Legend has it that such people existed long ago, but modern society has long since abandoned the path of martial arts. As fewer and fewer people walk this road, those who reach the state of "Heavenly Human" have naturally become exceedingly rare.

Today, Mother Zhao’s dye house is as bustling as ever. From early in the morning, the workers have been busy to the point of exhaustion. Even Mother Zhao herself is working hard in the courtyard, checking the progress of the dyed fabrics while darting to the front hall to greet customers. It seems the dye house has returned to its old ways.

"What is Lord Galaxy Dragon up to? Forget it, the affairs of a lord are not for me to concern myself with," the tall ghost messenger thought to himself, immediately withdrawing his curious gaze.

Thinking of how he had resisted Zhang Li’s request for the sake of Murong Xue, and how he had harbored hatred toward everyone for her, Chen Yu felt that his actions were truly foolish. At this thought, he couldn't help but offer a wry smile.

What? Afraid I’ll be thrashed by the monsters? Don't make me laugh. I am the dignified number-one player on the leveling leaderboard; how could I possibly be thrashed?

"Haha, no wonder you don't teach anymore!" The postman chuckled, giving Qin Yang a friendly tap while laughing heartily.

"Hey, boss, the magic crystal for twenty-eight Aure coins, I’ll take it." Although he had given most of the gold coins he obtained from Belifin to old Gibson, after rummaging through his pockets, he could still scrounge up those twenty-eight Aure coins.

Seeing him about to close the iron gate, I quickly reached out to hold it. "Uncle Zhou, you don’t need to hide it anymore. I know about Lin Yan. I only came this time to see her!" I said, staring directly into his eyes.

Here it comes again! He never spares care and love for Mo Tong, yet he is cold and taciturn toward him, showing no sign of fatherly affection. Even though Jian Cangwu was used to it, his heart still ached.

Within a few breaths, a massive magic barrier appeared, looming over the spacious arena. It was the first time Xiao Yu had ever seen a magic barrier of such magnitude.

"You should have said so earlier, then." Zijing’s face turned awkward, though his tone was defensive, as if to alleviate his embarrassment.

"Pfft! You’ve got to be kidding me, right? You just said I was right, and now you’re asking such a question! My name is Fusheng, so of course my surname is Fu. What else could it be?" Fusheng said with a look of disdain.

"Haha! Why are you guys here? Don't—don't tell me you’re looking for me?" Realizing something was wrong, Fusheng asked, stuttering.

Aunt Hong had been green with envy seeing Wang Liancao walking arm-in-arm with Sima Shangyi, but now, seeing Wang Liancao in such a disheveled state, she couldn't help but lower her head and snicker.

First, he targeted a laggard and fired a flame arrow, dealing a massive 580 points of damage.

"Truly worthy of being a Great Perfection beast nearing metamorphosis; its strength is indeed terrifying!" Watching the Flying God Python easily shatter an attack that even he couldn't match, Chu Yang couldn't help but exclaim in admiration, gaining a deeper understanding of the power of a Great Perfection beast.

Suffering so many wounds at once, the unimaginable pain was enough to make one nearly faint. If it were an ordinary person, they would have likely succumbed to the body's protective mechanism against pain and fallen unconscious long ago to escape such agony.

"You bastard! Qiu Meng, you dog of a slave, do you have any idea who he is?" Commander Liu turned around and slapped Qiu Meng hard, sending the latter reeling in a daze.

From his initial shock and frustration, Chu Yiyun fell into a deep contemplation. He even forgot to soothe the anxiety of the newcomers who had appeared in this strange land without knowing why.

Gazing at the sky, Gu Hao spoke, then pressed down with one hand, and a surging heat immediately emanated from his abdomen.

When Yan Lingyun finished examining the corpse and returned to the office, Chen Mu was already reviewing the files of the missing persons.

Storing the Three-Flower Spirit-Gathering Tree into his beast pouch, Fang Jing pondered for a moment before putting away the Spirit-Gathering Pond as well.

Although she hadn't yet persuaded Shen Xici to help her... after the events of the day, she believed that day was not far off.

In other words, the person who had personally inscribed this plaque must have been an exceptionally high-level master of the sword, likely even surpassing his own master.

Fang Peiru felt he was taking the opportunity to tease her. A flicker of annoyance and disgust crossed her face, and after glaring at him with resentment, she turned and headed toward the thicket.

At five in the afternoon, Chen Ming took a hot shower in the presidential suite, then left the hotel to head to the place he had agreed to meet Xu Yuerong.

Second, she is a doctor who carries weapons, has courage, and has never once feared death.

In order to ensure that Jiang Tangtang and Lu Shiyan would think of Ben Cao Hall first whenever they gathered rare herbs, Manager Yi not only refrained from suppressing the price but offered a rate slightly higher than the standard market price.

Tang Miaoyan couldn't just say she was there to provide medical treatment the moment they met, fearing the woman would suspect she had ulterior motives, so she had to find such an excuse.

At this moment, Cen Qing looked terribly haggard. Her clothes had a foul odor, and it was clear she hadn't bathed or groomed herself in at least half a month; the exact time had long since been forgotten.

While the pirate was speaking, a dark shadow lunged from behind like a ghost. From the rooftop, Yang Cheng saw clearly that it was another wanderer.

Although Du Ziping knew that Jun Jianxing already had a deep-seated grudge with the Master of the Gods Palace, the fact that the other party had come to ambush him and he had been injured meant that the man likely hated him to the bone. He did not want to leave such a vengeful enemy behind.

Seeing his attack miss, Qi Bing grew anxious. Just then, he saw Li Hao reveal a flaw. Qi Bing’s spirits lifted; he feinted several times with the water-splitting daggers in his right hand and then surged forward instead of retreating. With his spiritual water essence rioting, he unleashed arrows of water condensed from the essence, striking toward Li Hao.

After delivering food for half a month, Pao Dayou finally found a hidden cave shielded by a rock after taking fifteen bathroom breaks. Taking advantage of Linghu Chong’s distraction, he channeled the full ten layers of his Purple Mist Divine Skill and pushed his palms against the boulder, breaking into the cave.

The herbs required for the "Bone-Sculpting Powder" were all quite rare; the alchemy room certainly wouldn't have them, and even searching for Yue Cui would be useless. Fortunately, there was still the secret medicine space corresponding to the Stone Tower.
