Chapter 24

Suddenly, a deafening boom erupted outside, and the ground seemed to tremble faintly. The brightness vanished, and everything sank once more into the darkness of night.

Watching Bai Jin stubbornly argue with him, Zexiu now looked forward eagerly to seeing what expression would appear on her face when she watched the video later.

“Go on, take a look!” Chu Anran was genuinely bored, and genuinely curious as well. Seeing An Nan set the item aside, she began to fidget restlessly.

“Even your master, with his immense supernatural powers, could not break through the guardianship of these three spirit beasts. Can the three of us really do it? Besides, Chuchu has only just entered the Illumination-Seated stage.” Mu Yu was somewhat worried.

A Huan and He Hongzhi had rested for a day and were now discussing a trip to their old university in Nanjing. He Hongzhi had even contacted several classmates and alumni for him. A Huan also wanted to visit the Asian Games Village in Beijing and see the school in Shenyang where his mother had once taught. The two of them seemed to have grown young again, leaning their heads together as they discussed their plans.

Beside the liveliest and most prosperous district in Sanyuan City stood a vast courtyard. Sheltered by green trees, the noise of the bustling streets had become barely audible.

These three wandering swordsmen were clearly all from Lu. Yet their robes were tattered, and their straw sandals were worn to pieces. Judging by their appearance, they had not been faring well.

Shen Mengxi lowered her head and smiled without saying a word, thinking to herself, You probably do not even know how wealthy your own son is.

Upon seeing Yu Zi in such a state, Young Master Chu’s lips curled into a faint smile. He reached out and took the bamboo slip.

In the blink of an eye, flesh gradually spread across the outstretched withered-bone arm. Its hand clenched viciously, crushing the cannonball that had struck it into fragments.

For Chanchan’s parents to spare several sweet potatoes from their meager food supply in order to find her someone to rely on was, in their helplessness, the final expression of affection they could offer her.

In the eyes of the public, the YC Group had been so thoroughly vilified by public opinion that it seemed like a criminal syndicate—an evil, terrifying villain with power enough to block out the sky.

But if the city walls had not blocked the spread of spiritual energy fluctuations and medicinal fragrance, then what else could have caused it?

The moment he stepped out of the valley, Wan Zhong casually tossed something over. Catching it, Yekong discovered that it was a long sword gleaming with a cold light.

A pale, emaciated arm, so thin that its bones were nearly visible, reached out. The joints at the elbow stood out clearly, and there was scarcely ten ounces of flesh on the entire body. Nanny Heng shook her head in dismay.

Feng Xie’s gaze darkened slightly. She subtly adjusted her posture, braced both hands beside Mo Ran, and straightened herself.

With Yekong’s current strength, he could easily defeat an ordinary expert at the fourth level of the Profound Extreme realm. But against a fourth-level expert from a saint-level faction, he would undoubtedly find it extremely difficult—especially with Mo Bai, an expert at the fifth level of the Profound Extreme realm, standing in reserve.

Yu Fan took a look and realized that too many incidents had occurred here recently. This had clearly been set up to avoid taking responsibility.

“Wuwu...” Yang Yang hugged his legs, curled up, and sobbed. Sitting naked nearby, Du Feng smoked a cigarette.

The original owner had loved collecting handsome men and had never bothered keeping count. As long as a man was good-looking, she would stuff him into her harem. She probably could not even remember the face of a single male favorite.

Gao Chao had not noticed anything unusual, but the danger was real enough. Lu Jiu made up her mind that, unless absolutely necessary, she would never let Tsunade be her doctor.

Who knew what that old man had been doing inside his mind lately? He had not appeared for quite some time. Could he be treating his injuries?

Even though Yahiko’s body had been strengthened over a long period, and the Bone Pulse had granted him exceptionally hard bones, he still vomited blood after using it. That was despite his having promptly used the system to restore himself. Had an ordinary person taken his place, their body would probably have been shattered into countless pieces.

Let alone unifying the Southern Border—even among the great powers of the south, men such as Song Que, Xie Hui, Xiao Xian, and Du Fuwei were no weaker than Lin Shihong. Some were even superior to him.

Reijer had originally thought that Di Renjie’s final Pokémon would be Venusaur. He had never expected it to be Chatot.

The scar covering the left side of her face spread across nearly all of it. Eroded by the years, the scar had been worn down into nothing more than a blurred brown patch. Set against the fair skin on the right, she truly looked half human and half ghost.

If they could obtain such a method, the lives of the members of the Kaguya clan would be greatly extended. It might even be possible to overcome the side effects brought about by the Bone Pulse.

Whenever this happened, Sun Dian would give her an appreciative look, filling Okuni with indescribable pride. She did not know why, but receiving such a look from Sun Dian always made her happier than the thunderous applause she had once received from nobles and samurai after her performances.

“Because, as your father lay dying, he entrusted you to your mother’s younger sister, Yanda Yamato, who raised you.”

Looking at Kira Yamato, Yue coldly cut him off. Everyone aboard the Archangel, as well as Klueze and the others watching from the sidelines, was stunned by what Yue had said.

Moreover, the other side’s explosive tags had merely been a bluff. It felt as though he had been slapped across the face by an invisible hand, leaving his cheeks burning with pain.

Ahead, a large freight truck failed to brake in time and was about to crash into the police car. The driver broke into a cold sweat in panic.

Liu Zhi had encountered a few insect-like demon beasts in his previous life, but never anything like the creature before him. As the six-edged blade spun between his fingers, he wondered whether he should dissect it first. As the saying went, knowing both oneself and one’s enemy ensured victory in every battle. If he understood the physiological structure of these insects, then the next time he encountered them, his chances of surviving—or hunting them—would naturally be much greater.

She kept eating while giggling happily, drawing frequent glances from those nearby, who looked at Jiang Tiandao with envy.
