Volume 1, Chapter 134: Shen Yubai Comes to Make Trouble
"Mr. Shen, what brings you to my company with such leisure today?" Feng Yizhou sat firmly in his executive chair, leaning back slightly. With his hands clasped casually across his chest, his gaze was tinged with a mix of mockery and indifference as he looked directly at Shen Yubai, showing no intention of rising to greet him. The corners of his mouth turned up in a faint, sardonic smile. In the spacious and brightly lit office, his posture appeared remarkably languid, yet carried an undeniable weight of authority.
Shen Yubai walked slowly into the office, his eyes sweeping across the room in an instant, searching eagerly for the figure of Li Ruochu. Upon realizing that the familiar, graceful silhouette was nowhere to be seen...
"I've heard that where that thing exists, one might encounter a 'ghost wall'—a disorienting loop?" Pang Dun said, his lips trembling.
What made it tricky was that these skeleton soldiers had high health and defense, likely due to their race.
Chen Hao also realized the gravity of the situation. Without a word, he pulled out the high-quality replica "god-tier sniper rifle" from his waist, clicked it into chamber, and aimed directly at Kaka Jiansi's head.
Damn it! That unique, fresh scent of hers was beginning to linger in his nose again, stirring an urge to push her down onto the throne and press his body against hers.
An Le turned slowly, her eyes fixed on the half-open door of the stairwell, her gaze chilling.
"Are you... alright?" Qiao Yu asked. Fang Yi’s sudden appearance here to pick him up, with A-Da tactfully avoiding them—this sequence of events made it clear that her arrival had been permitted by Huo Tingge. But how did she know he was here? Huo Tingge certainly wouldn't have told her; she must have found him herself.
Her body was lifted into the air, and the remaining six tentacles on her back, those not yet severed, twisted and deformed under an invisible force.
Is there a man hiding here? Could it be that she and those two servants were playing a game of group intimacy before I arrived?
"It's fine. I just haven't eaten for a long time, so my body is weak. I'll be fine after taking some medicinal pills," Meng said, turning back. They had consumed quite a few pills while waiting here for Yang Jian over the past three days.
Within the Purple Flame Dojo, every time the Six Samurai warriors are summoned, five additional Six Samurai Foot Soldiers are summoned as well.
Although firearms posed little threat to experts, they were highly effective against these low-level demonic beasts. Even a non-combatant could protect themselves in this raid if they held a specially crafted gun.
Upon discovering that the Jinghong Sword contained a sword spirit, Dugu Qingfeng merely revealed a hint of surprise. Shortly after, he secretly injected a glimmer of light into the sword. The beam was so faint and thin that even Chen Feng did not notice the action.
"Master, why hasn't the sect announced the destruction of the demonic sect?" Xia Mingfeng stood thinking for a while before asking Liu Chan.
Chen Feng nodded; he understood that feeling well. Wasn't he himself continuing to push his limits and seek revenge precisely because the hatred in his heart remained?
After walking for most of the day, we finally cleared the forest and saw the campsite where we had set up our tents. We had packed the tents away when we left, so only a pile of charred firewood remained.
Sect Master Huang Tian straightened his robes and slowly accepted the imperial seal. He gazed at it for a long time, his eyes filled with excitement, and he uttered the word "good" three times.
Cang Yan didn't know what to say. I'm just getting too old! I can't keep up with the way young people think anymore.
At this level, it is at least a top-tier magical artifact—that ripple of soul consciousness seemed to be calling for help. Having existed for ten thousand years, the artifact itself must be nearing its end.
Teng Caizi knew all of this, yet she insisted on asking him to say it out loud. The facts were like shattered glass, yet she chose to swallow those shards of truth.
Although compared to protagonists like Kyo Kusanagi or Iori Yagami, Chin Gentsai seemed to lack presence.
On the road that followed, Fatty Wang and the others stopped and went, encountering increasingly strange monsters and events, while the number of humans active in the wilderness also grew.
"Since Su Rouying has fully inherited the Blood God's legacy, why didn't she come to the Tianhua Continent herself instead of entrusting you, senior?" Qin Lie asked, feeling puzzled.
Yet, other practitioners in this world truly faced this dilemma. To replace their bloodlines and grant their bodies higher-level lineages, they developed this miraculous method of spiritual transmutation.
Pairs of glowing green eyes emerged in the dense forest not far away—from the direction of the Yuan family, as well as from the left and right.
Shu Liya, Xu Daniu, and Sun Xiaohong could not bear to leave. In the words of Sun Xiaohong, this was likely the most powerful expert they would ever see in their lives.
"My goal is simple: I just want to understand the truth—why this happened and why you appeared. Once I understand, I'll leave. Either you tell me, or I've heard there's a spaceship that can reveal the cause and effect of everything. You choose."
Hearing this, Father Gong looked toward the entrance of the coffee shop and, sure enough, saw Ou Jingbo standing there with a dozen security guards, watching them.
After a round of fawning and apologies to dismiss that fellow who could neither read the situation nor understand the market, and who refused to reflect on himself, Xia Wanqing sat on the sofa, fuming in silence.
The tone was deep, as if mocking her, implying she should wait until she truly had the ability to sit in that position before talking.
Yan Niang intended to disturb Zhang Ruyun’s peace of mind and lead him toward evil. Seeing his annoyance, she found it amusing instead. She merely folded her hands behind her back and stopped speaking, calmly watching to see how Zhang Ruyun would resolve the matter at hand.
"In that case, the Old Man of Pear Mountain has done us a good deed! Knowing we faced difficulties ahead, he voluntarily sent a golden alms bowl to clear the way!" Zhang Ruyun couldn't help but laugh from the side.
The thick curtains blocked out the afternoon sun. Because the room had been fitted with underfloor heating, it felt somewhat stifling.
Wen Xia suddenly laughed. Shen Siyan was just too adorable. His serious, earnest expression really looked like a younger brother promising his older sister he would study hard. Shen Siyan in this state was like a child who had done something wrong.
Zhang Ruyun’s face flushed; he knew his earlier unsightly behavior must have been seen by the other party. Feeling embarrassed, he hurriedly asked why he had been stopped from waking up Shen Qixia.
And these two, whose fates many considered already sealed, not only met but fell in love.
Even in high heels, Sheng Qi was still a head shorter than the 1.85-meter-tall Han Chi. Slender as she was, her aura was three parts weaker than his.
"Come, Son of the Underworld. Let Me see if you will eventually follow in the footsteps of the God of the Underworld," the Heavenly Emperor said to Ming Luo, a mysterious smile playing on his lips.
Sakazaki Yuri dashed out, and the other three were not slow behind. Although she was the first to rush out, she had only taken a few steps when a flash crossed her vision, and a figure had already vanished.
"Are you threatening me?" Zhang Shuo clenched his right fist, about to move, but then abruptly relaxed it, though he continued to feign anger on his face.
"Four or five hundred people?" Song Jiang frowned upon hearing this. With so many people coming, it seemed likely that Brother Wang hadn't managed to stop them. He only hoped the man was alright.
"Hahaha... Does Deidara-senpai's 'greatness' refer to explosions? That's right, aside from explosions, there's nothing else!" Tobi laughed loudly.
