Chapter 56
He held his wand and cast a wind-based magic communication spell, sending his voice to the荒山 arena.
I recalled the hollow eyes she had when my father whipped her, yet she still remains in this home to this day. I think she loves her parents.
“No worries, it doesn’t have to be a willow branch, something close will do. Thanks for your help, Brother Xu Ping.” Wei Chi was very easygoing. Xu Ping obeyed the order and soon returned, apparently having sent someone else to do the task.
However, purchasing land for planting was different. Although most regions could only yield one crop per year, during the remaining time, other crops could be cultivated, which could bring in considerable income annually. Most importantly, the business of ordinary farms could be entrusted to others.
This was a result Xiao Yinjian had not anticipated. Had he known they became more cautious because of him, he would have taken back his previous words. But now, Xiao Yinjian merely watched from a distance, observing how these fools arranged the magic array.
Jin Ren wasn’t close to me, so he remained silent, sitting on the kang while studying strategies in checkers, but it was clear he was listening.
Jiang Rui refused to speak, and Wei Chi could not come up with a reason, so he simply gave up. Secrets cannot remain secrets forever; once there’s a solution, one day the truth will be revealed—it’s just a matter of timing. With this in mind, Wei Chi temporarily set it aside.
Xiao Yinjian had no choice. He wanted to try letting the heavenly tribulation enhance his power. With a loud shout, treating himself as a magical treasure, he mimicked the method of previous artifacts, confronting the three rapidly descending heavenly thunderbolts.
For example, Chen Boyi had some objects glowing faintly in his arms. Because of these faint glows, Chen Boyi’s condition was the best.
Tang Zhou assigned the ten contestants based on their circumstances, but when it came to the goalkeeper position, everyone’s expressions changed.
Ruan Heng was surprised to see his cousin, but she was much better than Shen Qian. Earlier, the deputy general who greeted them praised the fourth young master’s overwhelming presence, so he had a vague suspicion. He never expected it really was his cousin.
“Hey, it’s me!” Shen Wei saw Su Niang pull scissors from under her pillow. Pear Blossom, who had rushed in, was holding a stool, hastily signaling.

In the courtyard, a black-clad figure wearing night clothes jumped down from a lush tree.
Mu Niangzi was expressionless at first, but as she listened, she couldn’t hold back tears, deeply saddened by Xiao Xiao’s words.
Because now, compared to before, Zhang Xiaofeng clearly looked like a different person.
Mu Jinxi was speechless. She had anticipated many possible reactions from Xiao Xiao but never imagined he would treat this as a dream! This showed just how much he cared about the matter.
As for the taste of the food, Zhang Xiaofeng and his two companions dared not praise it. Compared to the grand restaurants on Earth, it was far inferior—at best street stall quality. The spiritual wine was even worse, like plain water without any flavor.
After all, a dagger has no eyes. Those who came to drink here understood that although they didn’t know who was behind this tavern, its unconventional operation and long-standing survival meant the owner must be a powerful figure.
With his voice, countless shadows suddenly appeared at both ends of the alley, surging toward the crowd, numbering roughly over a hundred.
Compared to Joyce, Kaman was undoubtedly smarter. Or rather, his mind had now calmed. He reached into his spatial equipment and pulled out a replication pearl. Using its power, he created an incredibly realistic illusion, even mimicking the breath.
Danger? Zhao Mu was not afraid. As a man who had walked through gunfire and rain, he did not believe these thugs, who only bullied ordinary people, could pose any real threat.
He suddenly pushed open the door, and no one was there. He then pushed open the window; the bustling street below was lively.
Setting these aside, Old Zhang had already said that anyone who came to our class to cause trouble must be knocked down.
Lei Zhentian had prepared to use all his strength to block Yan Mo Di’s attack, but he never expected that the attack would trigger an even stronger defense from the mysterious “Sky City,” not only repelling and severely wounding Yan Mo Di but also destroying his divine weapon, the Fiery Sky Cleaving Axe.

“Tell Deng Si, if he wants his son to live, meet tonight at the southern suburb.” Lin Rui kicked Deng Jiajun aside.
More dolphins gathered around the yacht, numbering over twenty, swimming wildly on the sea surface, diving and leaping, drawing perfect arcs.
He then ordered one team of werewolves to push back the remaining catapults that had not yet withdrawn into the city, while the rest began slaughtering the demon soldiers.
“Nanjing people? But I have no dealings with Nanjing. How did you find me?” Kang Junru looked very surprised.
When leaving, Jin Hui insisted on seeing her off. “I won’t go to the airport tomorrow; I’m afraid I won’t be able to control myself.” Saying this, she quietly wiped her eyes.
Especially after hearing the guards report no one was found, her anger turned into endless chill. If such tight security could be breached, wouldn’t their lives be at risk at any moment?
Cui Dazheng wanted to argue further, but Zhong Nan stopped him. Being away from home, it was best not to stir up trouble. Zhong Nan had intended to ignore the blind man, but the latter’s following words stunned him.
“Three days? Isn’t three days too short? We took a rough count yesterday on the mountain, about three to four hundred people. Finding this Dr. Gao within three days is like searching for a needle in a haystack,” Fu Xinghan said, feeling the timeframe was too tight.
