Volume 1, Chapter 32: Wiping the Body

To the two carriage drivers, Lin Yan was just a young rich kid. Though they didn't understand why he would pay such an exorbitant price to transport four coffins to such a remote location, the expense was undeniably massive.

"Alright, I'll stop laughing. Haha, I really will, go ahead and speak!" Chang Xi said, finally managing to suppress her laughter.

Everyone knew that Mu Kuangfu was the top warrior of the Squad Leader troops, possessing unstoppable power and standing as the most formidable contender for the Dragon Tooth.

She knew that if the hidden blade from the black-clad man's sneak attack had struck her, she would have been dead or at least severely wounded. It was precisely because of this that Lu Bu had pulled her into his arms.

Doing this was somewhat dangerous, as the spirit is crucial to a person; once Zhang Yuanhang’s spirit suffered damage, no one could predict the consequences.

"The Fairy is teasing me; how could I ever forget that? Please, Fairy, speak your mind," the Sect Leader said with a smile.

In truth, back then, there had been intentions to severely punish these fearless troublemakers—they had even initiated the process for mass expulsion—but in the end, everyone only received various demerits. Xiao Zhan alone had accumulated dozens of them.

Seeing Shi Gandang so earnest, the Sect Leader felt great; at least he hadn't lost face. He never imagined that in the future, the martial path would find more glory the harder it was to overcome tribulations, and that the fighting would become even more frenzied.

The Sect Leader of the Heavenly Principle Sect could sense that the aura of death was heaviest there, so naturally, his attention remained focused on that spot.

"My apologies, but I believe the Demon King’s proposal is sound. Why should we ignite a war and leave the land in ruin?" Xuanyuan Gu stood with his hands behind his back, directly refusing Ma Long’s invitation to defend against the common enemy.

"A noble person, the nobleman in my destiny is actually him! Li Cheng!" Li Chuanming looked at Li Cheng. Even though it was their first meeting, Li Chuanming could clearly perceive that feeling which both thrilled and unsettled him.

As for what benefits Kunpeng could bring him, that was left to fate. Ming He had given him two innate spiritual treasures to ensure Kunpeng had better self-preservation in the chaos; it was a mix of a carrot and a stick, tempering authority with benevolence.

Just a moment ago he was full of confidence, but now he truly began to worry: would Chen Xiao suddenly go mad and kill them all right here?

"Acacia Poison"—to put it bluntly, if even brute force wouldn't work, what other options remained? Thus, although Baili Dengfeng was unwilling, he had no choice but to give up for the time being.

In the eyes of the vast majority of those in the Divine Realm, the so-called "Tribulation-bearer," whether the story was real or merely a fallacious legend, had to be kept under control.

With that sound, everyone looked up abruptly to see a figure soaring down from the mountains like a great roc spreading its wings.

Watching Ling Duyi place his hand on Shanxia Jingxiang’s head to lull her into a deep sleep, Shi Zhongyu looked at him with great admiration.

A-Zi let out a sharp cry, but it was too late—or perhaps Baili Dengfeng had heard but paid it no mind, or maybe he hadn't heard at all.

Xiao Wuxie, Yu Ziqian, and the others never imagined that one day, their glorious deeds would inspire generations of young people to strive for greatness.

As he lunged forward, Xiao Wuxie’s longsword was already fully charged. With a powerful, sweeping strike, a brilliant light blossomed in the void, tracing a magnificent arc; yet, the result of that magnificence was the price of blood.

"You don't owe this Qingxuan Sect anything. The earth's spiritual energy was drained by them three days ago; the Qingxuan Sect is already finished," the old woman said.

Xuan Yin naturally didn't know why Xu Qi had smiled like that, and he didn't press the matter. Glancing around, he caught sight of a pair of bright eyes observing him. It was the three-year-old child, who stood out quite strangely among the crowd.

Li Yunchen smiled, thinking to himself that it was true; to obtain news related to the Immortals, even losing one's entire fortune was worth it.

Beyond leading the way in PC and mobile sectors, their original business in food had also seen significant development. The company where Shi Hui worked pioneered the concept of healthy food, improved production technology, developed new varieties and short-shelf-life products, and optimized the supply chain, significantly increasing the company's profits.

Back when the matter of appointing an Empress was at hand, the Empress Dowager had already shown favoritism toward her own family. This time, mother and son had clashed again over Xu Yaozu’s injury. Shi Hui ultimately couldn't bear to see the Empress Dowager sad; she rarely entered the palace, and she didn't want to trouble her with such matters.

He only knew that the Mo Group’s financial power was immense, their background unfathomable, and their influence formidable, so he dared not provoke such a behemoth as the Mo family.

However, having not been in the Confucian Sect for long, he respected the various elders and teachers, but he harbored a sense of injustice toward this Ye Bai. Why must everything in the sect wait for this person’s return?

Just as he was about to leave, Ye Shu suddenly paused, his heart stirring—a transmission talisman? It was common for the Zheng family to visit the island, but using this spiritual talisman to specifically seek him out was rather strange.

"Young, and ultimately a bit green. Seemingly aggressive and full of splendor, but in the end, it’s hard to amount to much... It is best to avoid the brunt of his sharpness," Cai Jing said with a faint smile.

Jiang Xuezhen ignored the BMW car keys in front of him as if they weren't there. Luo Zhaoyun’s expression made him even more puzzled, as he noticed a look of disdain on her face.

"Begin! Do not stop until I say so!" Mother Wu waved her hand, ordering everyone to run laps around Mount Mei.
