Chapter 61: Mobilizing the Entire Family's Strength to Avenge a Single Person
Holding a horsetail whisk, the Third Elder strolled around a circle and came to a halt.
"How many times do I have to tell you? It is malevolent energy, not death aura. Saying death, death, death all the time sounds so unpleasant."
Holding a large jar in his arms, Liu Yutang looked completely bewildered. "Doesn't seem like there's much difference, though. Let's just call it malevolent energy then—is there any inside this?"
A grown man whose own daughter had run away was now acting all cute toward him.
The Third Elder fell silent for a good few seconds, the corners of his eyes twitching incessantly. "Hand it over, let me take a look."
"Servant of the Spirit of the Evil World, former Demon King—you certainly have plenty of identities," Lu Yang said coldly. Battle qi and magic swirled around his palms as he readied himself for combat.
Hearing Bella put it that way, Lu Yang had no choice but to obey. He lifted the carriage curtain and stepped inside. As a magic advisor, he naturally still had to fulfill the role of a magic advisor.
The chilled liquid slid down his throat, and the sensation was shockingly freezing, as if he had just swallowed a large chunk of cold ice.
Seeing from afar that Luo Zixiu was sitting there in a daze, Shen Yiyi suddenly leaped behind him, wrapping both arms around his neck from behind.
Having arrived in a rush earlier, Mu Li hadn't yet carefully inspected the surroundings, but hearing this, he couldn't help looking over as well.
After all, Nicole had already been studying at the mage academy for some time, cramming a vast amount of foundational knowledge. Now it was about time to expose her to some lore regarding arcane masters.
Feng Changlai and the others did not rashly press forward either; instead, they first located Tang Guo and Chang Yu, and then calculated the enemy's numbers and positions.
"It failed, let's get out of here!" Cang Duli immediately issued a warning, having already retreated at top speed with her Leaf精灵.
Fang Zheng, however, frowned. It was simply too absurdly easy; how could a few words from him possibly induce someone of such unfathomable depth to surrender?
Good ingredients hardly required much simmering. Cooked over coal briquettes for just the right amount of time, the fragrance would become intensely appetizing.
"Just look at you! Half your body is already in the grave, yet you're still less composed than an unmarried maiden!" Having gained the upper hand this time, An Shi seized the opportunity to vent to her heart's content.
"Since it wasn't painted well, keeping it has no meaning, and it won't be kept anyway." Qin Tian showed no intention of cherishing it. The shredded artwork was instantly reduced to ashes amidst Quebao's flames.
"A medium-rare steak, please! Thank you!" Nuoke casually flipped through the menu and looked up to say.
The surroundings remained completely silent; no one could provide Hu Ziyao with an answer. Yet Hu Ziyao was not one to sit passively and await her doom. She knew someone had been keeping tabs on her all along, which was why she had never revealed her inner anxiety until now.
Though the others hesitated, seeing Magistrate Lu pick up his spoon, they followed suit and picked theirs up as well.
"What grave goods? Take another look!" I looked again, and the position of that dark shadow had actually shifted. Just as I was about to call the others to look, the shadow abruptly vanished, and the ice wall returned to its clear, translucent state.
Having not yet organized his entire plan thoroughly, Orient River had originally intended to run through all the details in his mind before revealing them to everyone. However, seeing their eager expressions, he was forced to share his plan right then and there.
Although Bao had not yet completely sorted out his thoughts, his immediate reaction was that this matter was definitely not simple.
The fact that the giant python still hadn't slithered out after he made such a commotion suggested that it might have slipped away into the depths of the lake.
Things having reached this point, Bureau Chief Wang could no longer complain about his father. He immediately went to process the discharge procedures so they could go home for the Mid-Autumn Festival first. After taking the pills sent by the He family, they would see how he felt after the holiday and determine whether inpatient treatment was still necessary.
Although the warriors who joined later arrived somewhat late, their cultivation levels were not low. Not a single person in the entire army was a third-rate warrior; the weakest were second-rate, and the vast majority were first-rate. This was entirely thanks to the baptism of the flames of war and the martial arts manuals bestowed upon them by Esdeath.
Variables only made the mission more difficult, or rather, forced Liuhao to face these trials head-on. It was virtually impossible to rely on clever shortcuts; aside from confronting them directly, trying to outsmart the system simply wouldn't work.
