Volume One, Chapter 132: Too Ruthless

Why is it Bo Xingzhou!
How could he be calling Fu Yuting?
Fu Yuting was about to answer the phone when she noticed Fu Siyuan still standing there, showing no sign of leaving, so she gave her a questioning look.

Ju Shou grew increasingly suspicious of what Lü Bu was plotting and decided to go to Ji Pass himself to see if he could uncover any clues from Zhang Liao and Pang De.

Unlike the cold, piercing, and razor-sharp gleam that had struck Li Qin'er's neck, the moment these glowing claws appeared, all the men in black seemed to recognize their lethality and abandoned their abduction attempt, retreating far to the side.

Lü Bu balled his left hand into a fist and smashed it against the shaft of the spear. Although he would not be injured, he wanted to see if his own martial arts were superior or if those of Zhao Yun, whom everyone praised, were better. A flash of silver light streaked past Lü Bu's chest; he barely dodged Zhao Yun's thrust and held his long halberd across his chest, blocking Zhao Yun's follow-up sweep.

It took Mu Sanqian a great deal of persuasion to get Hongyi to swap the ox cart for a horse-drawn carriage. Every time he ducked into the carriage shared by Su Xuan and Hongyi, the atmosphere was bizarre; neither of them gave him a pleasant look. Who had he offended, anyway?

Mu Sanqian was grinning and acting unserious as usual. In comparison, Yang Shanzhe felt that the version of Mu Sanqian who was solely focused on refining his life-bound artifact was much better.

Although everything happening before his eyes was somewhat inconceivable, Lin Jingyi was no longer the playboy he once was. His experiences at the Five Elements Sect had given him some understanding of such strange occurrences, and at this moment, he remained quite composed.

After their intimacy, Jin Shi'er, her face flushed crimson, appeared even more enchanting. Held in Lin Jingyi's arms, she felt the warmth and unique scent of this man.

"You asked, 'Is it my turn to ask a question now?' and I answered, 'Yes.' That was your first question," the Second Elder repeated their previous conversation, sounding perfectly justified.

"If that's the case, has anyone ever left this place? Have you ever thought about leaving?" Ye Yinfeng asked, full of curiosity. In such a chaotic and dreary City of Extreme Cold, surely there must be those who could not bear it and would choose to leave. Yet, he had never heard the other party mention leaving, which left him very puzzled.

"So, if you ever encounter a ghost beast of that level, you must hide immediately. Even if it isn't as strong as your grandfather, it is definitely beyond what you can withstand right now; even your Chimera beast might not be able to win," Long Yi reminded him repeatedly.

Chen San thought to himself, already able to roughly sense the other party moving toward the interior of the island. After a moment's consideration, Chen San simply reverted to his original appearance, suppressed his cultivation to the mid-stage of the Dao Foundation, and followed them deep into the island.

Chen Tian could naturally hear the conversation between Murong Xin and Tantai Yue within his inner universe and couldn't help but find it amusing. In the inner universe, it was indeed not difficult for Chen Tian to probe their thoughts, but they would be able to sense it if he did so. Naturally, Chen Tian would not act in such a way.

The man he addressed as Master was in his forties, with a formidable appearance and piercing eyes. A terrifying aura radiated faintly from within his body, giving him an air of steady dignity.

The discussion lasted until evening. Seeing the young mistress return, the group dispersed. As for Deng Shichang, Qin Ge had people sent to "protect" him.

Lie Liren also spoke coldly, and everyone understood the situation clearly. If it weren't for Chen San, Luo Ying would not have ended up with Fu Jin. It could be said that Chen San had ruined his grand plans. If Chen San had truly been a disciple of the Water Imperial City, it might have been different, but now that he knew the other party was a disciple of Qingcheng, he was certainly not going to let the matter rest.

"I just didn't expect that you wouldn't accompany him to the Celestial Realm," Urd said after drinking alone for a few cups, breaking the silence.
