Chapter 50: Resurrection from the Dead

Before anyone could rush forward to support him, Bai Yifan collapsed to the ground with a thud, landing in a pool of blood.

"Making such a huge commotion, it's hard not to notice even if one wanted to! Did the office turn into your battlefield?" Bai Yifan teased, unfazed by death, his gaze carrying its usual roguish charm.

"Master, I can sense Yushuang's aura here!" Although they had not yet approached the Snow Mother Peak, the Azure Dragon and the others could already feel Yushuang's presence.

That conversation caused Sima Lei to perk up his ears. Word of that "urging to ascend the throne" had reached him long before he arrived in Nanjing. Though the persuasion had failed, it was from that time onward that the Duke of Han began to be addressed as the "Prince of Han," which could be considered an achievement of sorts.

Suddenly, Xun Ruoliu's desk phone rang. Glancing at the caller ID, her heart began to race uncontrollably—this was the extension number for Ji Yu's office.

In truth, the matter of her living arrangements had been settled long ago. Mo Zhengyan had arranged for her to stay at the Mo Residence, but Cheng Qingning felt somewhat uneasy about it. After leaving work on the first day, He Sangsang drove her back to the mansion, and Mo Zhengyan was already there.

Chen Mo truly had never mentioned this matter to her. When she saw the news report stating that a pregnant Lin Minnan was going to marry Lu Chuan, she only felt immense regret; yet, on the other hand, as long as Lin Minnan was happy, she was willing to offer her blessings.

Of course, this was a matter of private sentiment that did not affect the grand scheme of things; under the overarching situation, they were merely accommodating personal feelings.

Suppressing her anger, Liu Tongfang first instructed her subordinates not to act rashly until she had devised a countermeasure. Scarcely had she hung up when another subordinate called to inform her that Fu Chaohuan wanted to see her.

"Originally, he should have won. Because he had a gun pointed at me, but he couldn't bring himself to pull the trigger, so I snatched his gun and fired it straight into his forehead." As Chi Xiaoyi spoke these words, his slender, peach-blossom eyes locked onto Ye Chenghan, yet her expression remained entirely unchanged.

This move looked immensely powerful, but in reality, it had virtually no effect and failed to cause Beckmann any injury at all.

There was no need to worry about warmth; as long as it was sturdy, spacious, furnished with a bed, a table, and chairs, that was more than enough for Fang Cheng.

The zombies did not deploy any ranged units either. An engagement between the two armies had unexpectedly fallen into such a stalemate right from the start, something Fang Cheng had entirely failed to foresee.

Scanning the ground with his eyes, Xiao Yang swept his palm outward, unleashing a surge of suction force that controlled the flame-like Heavenly Crystal Fire right in the center of his palm. Several more flame serpents darted out from within the Heavenly Burning Crystal Milk; had Xiao Yang not reeled them in quickly enough, the Heavenly Crystal Fire would likely have been devoured by one of them long ago.

The four families divided up all the remaining vessels of the Fifth Fleet and the Fourth Fleet's detachment, with each family receiving about seventy ships. The other damaged vessels were purchased by Zheng Zhi. With these warships and battleships of the Fifth Fleet, the strength of the four families increased dramatically.

Back then, a mere flick of his finger would have been enough to make Sun Wu lay down his life for him, but now, he actually had the audacity to tell him to get lost?

Wangyue flipped her hand, and a spirit crystal materialized within her palm. However, the moment the spirit crystal appeared, it directly dissolved like an ice cube meeting boiling water, and that pure spiritual energy vanished without a trace, leaving no fluctuations of spiritual power felt anywhere in the surroundings.

Tossed and turned by him all night, I was already utterly exhausted. The wound still ached intensely. Sleep, I thought, for once asleep, it wouldn't hurt anymore.

Therefore, he had no choice but to compromise. The origin power of the ultimate law was merely something he had saved to keep those two inner demons in check; without it, his ability to restrain them would plummet drastically.

The old crone let out a series of weird, cackling laughs, her figure retreating and vanishing behind a sea of flowers. Losing her target, Xiaoyiying hurled the Illusion Blade in her hand. The blade swept toward the direction where the old crone had vanished, carrying the destructive might to shatter heaven and earth. Yet, as the blade swept past, it merely destroyed a patch of vines without inflicting any injury upon the old crone.

Fortunately, those vines, upon coming into contact with the Qi of Death, rapidly lost their vitality and withered into dried-up creepers.

At that moment, Song Nanwei pulled a yellowish-brown magical artifact from his embrace, raised it high toward the sky, and instantly, several streams of yellowish-brown light flashed brilliantly in mid-air.

At this thought, Ye Yufan draped a garment over his shoulders, walked stealthily to the curtain of the tent, and gently parted a gap with his finger. Peering through, he was instantly overjoyed. The figures that had leaped into the courtyard turned out to be none other than Yelu Beiqi and Yelu Chen.

"There are plenty of half-step Legendary-tier existences, but not a single true Legendary-tier one. In reality, our Earth plane is far more fragile than it appears on the surface!" Jiang Chen's expression turned somewhat desolate; in front of a true Legendary-tier powerhouse, no number of half-step Legendary-tier beings would be of any use.

He asked Lin Shaochen for two more medicine bottles, then bit his finger and dripped two drops of radiant, divine-essence-filled blood into each.

"Furthermore, Lord Hei, please rest assured. As long as we gather these four jade pendants, I promise to reveal the secret hidden within them to you!" Seeing that Hei Wushuang was somewhat tempted yet still hesitant to make a final decision, the red-robed leader made his pledge.

However, Zuozuo's mother did not know that how could an academy possibly grant students a vacation lasting ten days or half a month? Although the practical combat training had concluded, the coursework for the next semester was already beginning, leaving the schedule just as tight and far from the leisurely idleness Zuo's mother imagined.

After helping Sikong Xu resolve his troubles, the time Xiao Yan had left to stay in this plane was also running short.

In an instant, dazzling lights flashed above the entire lake, and various spell techniques roared down upon the vines, producing earth-shattering explosions that shook the surroundings.

"Captain, do you think we might have overthought things earlier?" Liu Tianshi suddenly blurted out a sentence that left everyone baffled.

With that, soul power enveloped his hands, controlling every minute detail to achieve a state of extreme equilibrium, and then his palms slowly moved together.

She applied more force, and the dagger slowly grew larger and larger, until finally, it vaguely resembled a sharp, massive saber suspended before her chest.

Yet, no sooner had Shiyao finished speaking than tears welled up in Zijin's eyes. Pouting his lips, he looked at Shiyao with a pitiful expression, as though Shiyao had subjected him to some grave injustice.
