Chapter 38

Lost in thought, Xiao Nuo could not help but frown slightly. He then opened the Divine Realm exchange platform and began to browse through it.

Duan was taken aback for a moment. He could understand what Bai meant, but what did Uzuki Yugao signify? Duan couldn't help but glance at Uzuki Yugao beside him, but since she was wearing a mask, he could not discern any expression.

Trees have roots, and water has sources. No one ever discussed the reasons behind the headhunting of the Alishan people—why they first began the practice in ancient times, and why it persisted for millennia afterward.

"Then why not just give this one to me!" Duan suddenly appeared and snatched Akamaru out of his hands.

However, because they had to consolidate their forces to focus on protecting their companions, they knew relatively little about matters concerning the Firmament Continent, focusing their attention instead on the Central Kun Province and the Mechanical Divine Temple.

Duan knew that the other party was from the Uchiha clan and naturally had the status to sit in the front, but what about himself? Should he really follow them with such thick-skinned audacity?

Xu Xingxia thought to himself, "If I believe your words, I must be a fool. If these words had come from the mouth of Deng Rubai, I might have believed them a little. But as for you, Zhang Qiuqing and Peng Feng, forget it." When things are abnormal, there must be something sinister afoot. The more Zhang Qiuqing tried to curry favor, the more vigilant Xu Xingxia became.

Duan also left a letter for Tazuna, asking his family to take it to the Land of Water and present it to the Daimyo.

The villagers held no affection for Niu You, but they were quite skeptical that he would plot against Li Shan, leading to much discussion and debate.

All the legendary monsters summoned by the God of Pain had perished, and the body of the Unclean Fish collapsed, transforming into dark red blood that was sucked into the Bottle of Dawn.

However, as a natal spiritual treasure of the Divine Fusion Stage, despite the interference of the man in black, its momentum remained intense. With a slight shift in direction, it turned to strike at the man in black.

Father and son channeled their true energy together. This set of martial arts had no fixed moves; once the state of mind and level of cultivation reached a certain point, any movement could be used to unleash its power.

Simply by touching her forehead to conduct a rough temperature check, he knew from the fact that Lu's body temperature clearly exceeded normal levels that she had officially entered her growth phase.

"Even if you can recover your cultivation, how can the matter of the Wei family be delayed? We cannot all be expected to wait like this for your sake alone," Wei Tianli said.

"Is it because my IQ is too low?" Assistant Wu was left directly questioning his own intelligence by the Fifth Master's words; he simply could not understand.

Before Mu Li could even react, the spiritual power and soul energy gathered in his dantian began to surge frantically into the pellet condensed from the powers of life and death.

The Great Elder was also filled with worry. For the past few days, the Thunder Realm had begun to grow unstable. If he could not find a way to provide sanctuary before the realm vanished, he feared the heritage of the Wen clan would be severed under his watch.

The Black Iron Army had no intention of letting Tiele escape, as it would tarnish their reputation. Consequently, the entire Black Iron Army gave chase in unison.

While Luo Zixiu was talking to the boss, several martial artists had already descended from upstairs. Judging by the solemn expressions on their faces, they were likely heading to the south city wall to provide support after hearing the broadcast.

He was not particularly burly, but he stood about one meter eighty-three. Although he could not see clearly, the man's face was sharp and angular. Among the noble scions Meng Xinlan had met, he wasn't the most handsome, but his looks were genuinely quite good.

Naturally, there were elders here as well—two of them. Both had reached an advanced age and had consciously come here; they were the "doctors" of this place.

Of course, the security of the entire villa was also formidable. Since "Ferocious Tiger" had been the top leader for so many years, he naturally had many loyal confidants by his side. These confidants usually lived in "Ferocious Tiger Villa," numbering in the dozens, and these dozens were responsible for the security of the villa.

Leaving the consulate, Lu Yongxiang was in total despair. He Fenglin urged him to make one more attempt, arguing that he still had thirty thousand capable soldiers at his disposal.

"Thank you." Dong Shi did not rush to look at her face; instead, she scooped up a silver-tailed fish and placed it into a basin.

When did the second-in-command produce a gleaming, cold-edged sword? At the moment their blades clashed, he felt a surge of icy energy invade his body through his fangs, while the second-in-command was forced to retreat several steps.

Now that he was in Mirage City, he could not test the effects of the Mist Barrier and had to leave it for later. He put it away for the time being.

This system had been in operation for many years and was nearing perfection. The only problem was the suppression based on seniority; senior researchers had higher ranks and more resources, but their efficiency in producing results was not necessarily better than that of talented and ambitious newcomers.

Dinner consisted of only two light dishes, and, of course, a pot of steaming hot stewed wild deer pizzle soup. Su Xinyuan glanced at the soup on the table. Upon hearing Mu Ningxue instruct him to drink it all and ensure that even the meat inside was chewed and swallowed, his face immediately twisted in misery.

This included the remaining large piece of the broad-mouthed explosive dragon's scales. Most of the scales from this giant beast had been used to craft equipment for the Black Iron Army. Considering the fairness of the distribution to others, this piece was put up for auction to exchange for gold coins, which would then be used for a better allocation of resources.
