Chapter 33: Official Launch – Three Chapters Consolidated into One

Upon hearing Xu Tian’s words, even the dullest person present realized that he was resorting to manipulative tactics.

What was truly shocking was that even after the First Alliance had abandoned the twenty-first through twenty-fifth rounds of the Trial of the First Emperor, there was actually an alliance in the world reckless enough to attempt them.

Loz watched Reiju, whose eyes were downcast, and walked past her naturally, whispering something into her ear.

With a thought, Cheng Hao cast a series of incantations, branding the black armor with his soul mark. From this moment on, he, Cheng Hao, was the master of this armor.

Seeing that Su Xingchen’s expression remained unchanged, Elder Fang was somewhat surprised. However, after a moment’s thought, he understood that the other party was merely feigning composure, while in reality, he must have been terrified.

"Dragon Head, he is merely a lowly traitorous citizen; he is simply not worth—" The High Priest, having already assumed his role as a subordinate, attempted to sway Yue Zhou’s decision.

"Get out of the way!" Murong Qing, charging at the front, pointed a finger. The inch-long finger radiance instantly shattered the opponent’s protective aura and struck the man, sending him flying backward.

Come to think of it, there was a unique talent in the Talent System called "Water Element Affinity." Loz had once asked the system what this talent meant, and the system had provided him with an answer.

As soon as the three statues sensed someone approaching, a strange light silently erupted from the Baihui acupoints on their skulls, shooting straight into the ceiling of the blood cavern.

This surprised Xiao Xuan greatly. In his era, although the Gu Clan maintained the image of a great family, they were extremely conservative regarding war, avoiding it whenever possible.

Xia Zhi raised her eyebrows slightly. If she were to encounter such a person, she would not be polite. The customs of the Northern Garrison were such that the young women were mostly quite spirited. If they encountered a groper or a lecher, they would definitely retaliate with a slap; very few women would suffer in silence.

Leaving the Liu residence, there was indeed an ambulance waiting. Ye Li could not be bothered with it; she lowered her head, pulled her collar up to cover the wound on her neck, bypassed the vehicle in a few quick steps, and hailed a taxi.

After wandering through most of the Armed Forces Department, they walked into an increasingly remote area. Cheng Yan followed silently behind Platoon Leader Su, only realizing when they arrived at a spacious parade ground—or more accurately, a "training ground," as the vast open space was filled with all sorts of equipment.

Bashan Hu laughed, saying, "If anyone dares to refuse to acknowledge the Cult Leader, I, Bashan Hu, will dig out their heart with one claw to see if it has truly been blinded by greed." Everyone burst into laughter upon hearing this.

Clatter, clatter—the iron chains collided, emitting a crisp metallic sound. As the winch tightened, a massive shadow quietly emerged in the area between the three sea vessels.

However, he still tried his best to salvage the situation. Although he was the jungler for the RST dynasty team, he had played through many difficult, disadvantageous matches before.

Seeing this, Wang Yi sized up Master Minghu. Observing the man’s indifferent expression, he no longer hesitated, picked up a black stone, and placed his move.

At this moment, the Master of Tianlong Temple took a step forward, surrounding Xie Yangtian from behind, and smiled, "Do you still wish to leave?" A chill appeared in Xie Yangtian’s eyes, as he saw that Yuhu, Duhong, and Xiang Yu had already occupied the positions to his front, left, and right.

This house currently had no one in it besides Father Ye and Aunt Xue. Aunt Xue served as both a housekeeper and an assistant in Father Ye’s external affairs. Father Ye handled business matters, while Aunt Xue managed development and promotion outside of Guangzhou; she was truly a helpmeet. Of course, their relationship was only as thin as a piece of paper.

The two of them went deeper and deeper, moving further away from those powerhouses. The guards wouldn’t be back for a while; with so many experts escaping, the prison was in total chaos and had no time to worry about them.

Chu Yanlan entered, looked at Jiang Huiyun with eyes full of resentment, and asked about Huo Tingshen’s condition.

After Cao Haifeng left, Liu Qianqian picked up the neatly folded tablecloth on the table, checked that everything was in order, and then got up to head to the Qinzheng Hall.

"It’s fortunate that you found it; if you hadn’t, I might have been lost here forever." Meng Zifan’s consciousness rolled its eyes at his past life, truly thinking that his past self wouldn’t come to save him.

"Black Heavenly Net," the Tree Spirit Granny shouted, simultaneously exhaling a black aura from her mouth.

Yet there were always those who feared not death. After Wang Qi was blasted away, several people from Chiyang Academy surrounded Meng Zifan with icy expressions and attacked directly. The immortal arts condensed by the acquaintances formed ribbons of immortal energy, and the different attributes of energy manifested as multicolored immortal arts, which were truly dazzling.

"Heh, close quarters? He’s not worthy!" Lin Xingyue smiled, politely took the manuscript, glanced roughly at the content, and said.

"Mom, is there something wrong?" He stood still, not facing her, his back turned to her, and asked in a tone neither cold nor warm.

If Sun Chengjing’s words were heard by someone unaware of the situation, they might have believed them. When Su woke up, although his younger brother Wu Zhen’s cultivation had not been crippled, his life was hanging by a thread.

Yi Shilin was well-versed in auroras, and her skill in formations was not weak. She had set up this great formation in advance, leaving Meng Zifan unaware for a time.

"Safe travels, Miss!" The shopkeeper smiled as he saw Ruyi out. Little did he know, no sooner had he turned around than someone else arrived, shoved a gold ingot into his hand, and whispered a few words in his ear.

She had been out of contact with Cao Ruoxi for several days, and Cao Ruoxi must be worried. But the hateful Ruan Bardan wouldn’t let her contact Cao Ruoxi; the home phone couldn’t make outgoing calls, and she didn’t dare borrow phones from the servants or bodyguards. She couldn’t take it anymore this morning and threatened to go on a hunger strike, which was the only reason Ruan Bardan helped her make this call.

She hadn’t spoken all day, her gaze drifting toward the sky outside the window, her eyes appearing much clearer, yet also becoming more unfathomable.

Beichen Xingyao looked in terror at Ming Wuyan, who remained beautiful even while sneering. Why was she smiling, yet she felt as if she were about to die?

"Alright then, you must be gentle with Rere, don’t scare him!" Lin Weiwei agreed, smiling sweetly.

"I don’t know." Ling Luoqi played coy with him; she wouldn’t tell him that she just wanted to make his wish come true.
