Chapter 38: A Grim Situation

"Hiss—"

Someone suddenly let out a sharp intake of breath. As Yun Li turned to look, Leng Xiu lowered his voice abruptly, "Quick, all beastmen, move!"

As soon as he spoke, Leng Xiu scooped up Yun Li and charged forward. Leng Xiao followed closely behind, and the other beastmen, seemingly having sensed the danger as well, quickly moved to follow.

Thanks to her breakthrough to the Red Tier, Yun Li’s vision was far superior to what it had been before she started practicing. As Leng Xiu carried her, she saw what had caused them to flee in such haste: a swarm of predatory, winged raptors. At first, they appeared only as tiny black specks, but they quickly multiplied into a dense, overwhelming mass.

"Hiss—"

Clearly, Zhu Yan was a good man who treated Zhu Jun like a son; how could he possibly harbor such thoughts? His slightly narrowed eyes were the ultimate expression of his displeasure.

When Cai Jianzhong finished his task, Zhang Man arrived with a group of people at the excavator. After a brief handover, Cai Jianzhong began explaining the foundation excavation work to them.

This Platinum-tier battle drew the attention of many soldiers in the plaza, all of whom crowded around to watch the spectacle.

Galilei’s eyes flickered with a strange light; it seemed this pull-ring was the switch for something.

The existence of the Soul-Falling Palace within the Soul-Falling Sea was no secret in the Jiangchun Great Domain, which bordered the sea. The palace was a treacherous place; typically, everyone who entered was lost, and very few ever returned.

After the sound waves dispersed and slowly reflected back, Lin Mu gained a rough understanding of the surrounding situation.

"Qingqing, I don't believe that is the only reason you’re refusing," Wu Tian said, gesturing toward Qingqing with a smile.

The monster’s regenerative abilities were astonishing. The right leg that had just been severed by Ying Luo had already fully recovered. Facing a biological weapon with recovery powers comparable to the Ancestral Insect of the apocalypse, one had to either kill it instantly or sever the connection between the monster and the laws of reality.

Yet, the opposing side still had dozens of cultivators left. Although severely wounded, they were still alive.

This was a high-frequency energy blade capable of dealing high damage at close range, while simultaneously causing vaporization, tearing, and corrosive effects.

"I am truly exhausted. That feeling where no matter how hard you try or how much you ponder, you simply cannot move a step further—I have experienced that to the fullest lately," Gao Ge said.

He returned to the inn to find the panda sleeping and the yellow cat still out performing heroic deeds, so he drank tea alone, deep in thought about the dilemma of "the fish and the bear's paw."

Watching Lei Bin’s disheveled state, Guo Meng sneered inwardly. A fool like this relied solely on the power of the Nine Gates Commander; he was no different from any other simpleton.

However, the subsequent development of events completely exceeded Barkley’s expectations. At the Staples Center in Los Angeles, Li Wu defined what it meant to be a one-man team.

After expressing her gratitude, Curry left with her subordinates. Boss Situ nodded at Li Wu, then instructed his men to clear the hall, set up a round table, and invited Li Wu to sit opposite him.

"Fiona, Mengmeng, you three are swordsmen, so pay close attention. What I am about to discuss concerns swordsmanship. Of course, Caitlyn and the others should listen carefully as well; it will be beneficial for you too," Xia Jie said, looking at Rui Mengmeng and the others with a serious expression.

Complete separation might not be appropriate, and in reality, it would be difficult to achieve, but establishing a separate institution to develop the Sky-Based Network was not a significant issue.

During the timeout, Coach Amark didn't emphasize tactics. In this situation, as the team leader, he had the right to control the ball.

Therefore, Liu Liu adding him as a friend was no different from all the others who had added him recently.

Li Mu, Chu Yun, and Chen Jing finally decided to go watch the match together, but Li Mu hadn't changed his clothes yet, and his belongings were with Lin Mo, so he headed back to the dormitory first. Fortunately, Lin Mo, that great shut-in, was still in his room designing his cards, and Li Mu successfully retrieved his things.

Even Tang Jinlong inwardly agreed with Tang Lin’s words. This young man possessed the cultivation of a Grandmaster, yet he spoke with such reckless lack of restraint; it was truly tiresome.
