Volume 1, Chapter 24: Nameless

The moment he saw that face, the Elder of the Demon Clan could no longer restrain himself. He fell to his knees with a thud, raised his hands high, and wailed, "The Demon God has manifested! The Demon God has manifested!"

Exhaustion severely hampered Hei Yaoguang’s reflexes. Combined with his state of shock and bewilderment, his defenses at that moment were fragile to the point of collapse.

Are you kidding me? This Wood Raccoon leader was clearly different from the normal ones—terrifyingly savage. Why would anyone go up there now? Is it a death wish?

These damned household appliances fell from space; heaven knows what they had been through. Even with their awakened powers, they were unable to destroy them.

Having successfully obtained the bone, Chen Feng prepared to leave. At that moment, his gaze swept past something, and he couldn't help but pause.

After all, the Forest of Life was one of the ten forbidden zones. With its deep foundations and far-reaching connections, there were countless elves tied to it, and its friends were spread across the entire region.

Gao Ming did not know that meeting him was not Lin Yi’s original intention. Rather, it was because Boss Huang had not returned He Fei’s calls since the previous night. Feeling uncertain but unable to call Boss Huang again, He Fei had turned to Lin Yi, asking her to arrange a face-to-face meeting with Gao Ming to find out what he was actually up to.

With a thunderous boom, the giant’s massive body was caught between two converging forces. With a crunch, his flesh served as a shield, and a grey shadow darted out from the toxic smoke, transforming into a streak of lightning as it lunged toward Old Xiao’s hiding spot.

With superior bloodlines and excellent prenatal education, children of aristocratic families had inherent advantages from the moment they were in the womb. The heritage from the primordial era ensured that almost every generation of the Seven Great Families produced geniuses that mortals could only look up to in awe.

Under the force of the violent tearing, the five thin threads snapped. The five black shadows attached to them were sent flying like kites with broken strings, slamming heavily against the nearby wall.

One problem was that the government treasury was empty, and the Puzhou Salt Lake—the source of their wealth—was and would long remain under the control of the Zhang family.

There shouldn't be any robbers capable of escaping from nations that were on high alert. After all, robbers were merely robbers; they could never engage in a direct confrontation with a state. Thus, they had to exploit the spatial gap to break into the cockpit and seize control of the pilot.

High in the sky, two gargantuan hands emerged from the void. Coiled with phantoms of true dragons and shimmering with countless immortal divine runes, they devoured the boundless energy of heaven and earth, manifesting as two massive talismans that sealed off the planes of the Four Arms and the Golden Armor.

Consequently, when Liu Jin heard the description of the "walking on wooden stakes" game, he didn't think much of the celebrities in front of him. At the same time, he kept winking at Jin Shengshi and Wu Ren, his expression so brimming with confidence that he was practically ready to pat his chest and guarantee a win in this round.

Huo Qubing and Li Guang faced the situation with calm smiles. At this critical moment of life and death, Wei Qing appeared unusually composed. Unhurriedly, he took a talisman from his ethereal ring—a charm pulsating with spiritual energy, covered in spirit patterns, and inscribed with five lightning marks of different colors. He smiled with a sense of relief.

Lin Chuan arrived at the stone table in the center of the courtyard, drew water from the nearby well into a basin, washed his face, and took off his soaked shirt before letting out a long sigh of relief.

Not only were the human kings Tie Zhan and Duan Yue injured, but the human king Dao He was also under the pincer attack of two demon kings, causing his internal core to tremble incessantly. Thousands of sword beams were either severed or shattered, and blood was visibly seeping from the corners of his mouth.

But just then, the snow monster sprang out from the snow again, bit one of the marines on the shoulder, and vanished back into the snow without a trace, leaving behind only a marine whose shoulder had been torn open by a massive wound.

That morning, the mercenary leader of the Dutch East India Company, a man named Kelanke, mobilized his band of outlaws. They donned Spanish uniforms and caps, shouldered Spanish muskets, and carried Spanish flags as they marched toward Fort Santiago.

The fired fishing net ensnared Robin perfectly. Hammond hadn't even had time to celebrate before he realized that Robin, caught in the net, had suddenly dissolved into a flurry of pink petals and vanished.

"Although you have already made your decision, I still hope you will reconsider. I will be waiting for your reply at any time," Huangfu Jingren replied.

He raised his sword and struck decisively at Ye Yingming. Ye Yingming watched the blade descend, neither dodging nor resisting, allowing the sword to fall.

Wang Dong really wanted to tell her that even without the so-called "traitor," Rubert would have had to die. He had to die.

"Boss, he is your biological son." Lin Tang was stunned. He hadn't expected Qi Tiancheng to have the thought of abandoning Qi Yue. For so many years, wasn't Qi Yu the person Qi Tiancheng had been trying to find?

In a daze, a sliver of focus seemed to return to Mo Junli’s eyes. In her mind, the bewitching voice seemed to have vanished, and she suddenly remembered when they had first arrived at Lanshui Village.

Although Guo Jia and Jia Xu had different personalities, they were both wholeheartedly devoted to their lord, Fu Lin. Even though Guo Jia was usually unconventional and Jia Xu was more cautious, their loyalty was absolute.

Only then did Professor Oak breathe a sigh of relief. However, Lin Xiao not intervening meant that he wouldn't get involved in the conflict between Team Rocket and the League. Though he wanted to persuade him otherwise, Lin Xiao had been at odds with the League since he started his journey, and he had become even more disillusioned after seeing entitled heirs causing trouble at the manor.

Ji Liunian felt like she was sitting on pins and needles. In truth, she had been held by Sheng Shi like this many times before, but that was in private. Now, in a place with strangers present, she was terrified of seeing disdain in others' eyes.

To be safe, Zhang Zheng gave further instructions to Lu Ting and the others: if anyone came, Lu Ting was absolutely not to show her face.

The mana within Gui Xiao was filled with an aura of desolation, suppressing Ru Xianfeng like a roaring, wild dragon. Its power was terrifying, shattering the ground around Ru Xianfeng into countless spiderweb-like cracks.

An infinite murderous aura, even more intense than the one contained within the surrounding formation, erupted from Bao Jingyi’s body. The next moment, the spiritual energy she unleashed became truly terrifying.

Just as the two were preparing to retreat, Duan Suying pulled back his left foot and stepped on a dry branch. "Snap"—the crisp sound was piercingly loud in the quiet space. There was no doubt that the two people inside the room had heard it clearly.

When he arrived home, Aunt Xue was already asleep. It looked like she had been busy with work these past few days. Jiang Long tiptoed back into his room.
