Volume 1, Chapter 42: Binding Qin Manyao, Activating the Flesh Resellation Quest

"No, Big Brother, I just felt like there was some movement over there!" Zhang Song whispered nervously, pointing toward a pitch-black, frozen thicket in the distance.

Zhang Huai frowned, following the direction of Zhang Song's finger.

Absolute darkness.

Nothing could be seen.

After a long pause, Zhang Huai said, "It was probably just a spirit beast? This is the Heavenly Frost Forest; besides us, who would be crazy enough to be out in this freezing weather? Stop being so paranoid, and you'd better make sure you don't give away our flaws."

Zhang Song: "No, I clearly heard..."

"Enough, let's go. We can't stay away for too long, or people will get suspicious."

".........."

"The Solitary Heart Fortress is renowned throughout the ancient city, yet it stoops to practicing such evil arts," Li Yunchen sneered, then tossed his treasured sword into the air as the Taiji Sword split into ten luminous swords, standing upright in the void.

Xiao Tianhe, currently heading toward the front lines, was still unaware that on the very first day of his departure, his good grandson had already stolen his thunder. His personal guard would in the near future become Xiao Wuxie's exclusive guard, taking orders from Xiao Wuxie alone, to the point where even Xiao Tianhe himself would no longer be able to command them.

"Taotie, how dare you?!" Gong Ling roared furiously, throwing a backhanded palm strike toward the Old Demon Taotie, employing his signature supreme technique from years past, the Star-Shifting Palm.

Having finished this action, though no one was watching, Shao Heng felt a slight pang of self-consciousness and casually put the strip of cloth away.

"You two, the Ice Crystal Piercing Glow Formation has already been broken. Is there any need to continue fighting?" Amidst the turbulent spiritual pressure, Chili's figure emerged first, his hands clasped behind his back, his expression arrogant.

The scene at this moment was sheer chaos. The factions from Peach Blossom Spring, Patching Heaven Pool, and Scarlet Beauty kept swarming onto the platform, while some even started fighting right down below. The spectacle was utterly chaotic.

He concentrated solely on his cultivation, continuously drawing in and absorbing the pure spiritual qi left lingering in the vortex of air to compensate for the physical toll inflicted earlier by expending a drop of his heart's blood.

However, that did not mean pills could not be taken. During the cultivation process, appropriately combining them with elixirs suited to one's current realm made it much easier to advance, break through, refine, and consolidate one's境界.

Though the voice had been heavily disguised by the speaker, Shao Heng was sharp-eared and observant, and he still managed to catch a faint clue from it.

Ye Bai changed into a fresh set of clothes and headed forward, moving with a few leaps like a phantom in the night.

Not just the viewers, but even Huang Zijiao herself wore a look of utter shock. Normally, on an ordinary day, receiving ten cruise ships would already be quite impressive. Today happened to be the one-year anniversary of her broadcasting debut, so these major financial backers had all rushed to compete for the weekly rankings.

At this moment, the commander produced a case. After a series of operations on the case, a projected holographic figure appeared—the commander's direct superior.

"Very well, then I am also curious to see just how powerful a Primordial Chaos Supreme Treasure truly is!" The Demon King took a deep breath, waved both hands, and the heavens and earth shifted color as a massive Primordial Chaos array diagram manifested behind him.

"What are you bickering about? Had I known you would be so rebellious, this old man never should have raised you!" Xu Ping flew into a rage.

Amidst this extremely unfavorable situation, the only good news was that although this massive creature possessed terrifyingly formidable defense, its movements were quite clumsy. Its attacks failed to land on Ning Fuchen even once, as Ning Fuchen effortlessly and completely evaded every single one of them.

She spoke up to keep Lady Li behind. In the future, once Lady Li's injuries healed, if her father failed to divorce her, both the Old Dowry Matriarch and her father would carry a lingering sense of guilt toward her; conversely, they would grow to detest Lady Li even more.

Brother Lai cursed a storm as he dropped another hundred thousand, and Chen Feng followed closely behind with another hundred thousand, instantly draining his wallet dry.

Not to mention the collateral branches, even the main family had seen quite a number of people break away. Now, the Xiao family was left with barely a hundred people.

"Doctor, how is Xinyu's health? Is there anything serious?" Seeing the physician finish checking the pulse, Changle hurried over and asked with concern.

Ling Feng smiled faintly, turning his right hand over to make the Moyu Sword appear in his palm. Since this was a duel of swordsmanship, Ling Feng intended to crush her within the Dao of the Sword, otherwise his opponent would never be convinced.

"It's fine; everyone understands this tacitly, but let's make sure everyone avoids mentioning it after we return," Gu Qingcheng instructed Qin Ying.

Ye Cheng had been rejected from entering the Ren residence on the grounds of being unwelcome. Early the next morning, Wu Guang left; a few minutes later, Ye Yan arrived, and a few minutes after that, Grandpa Bao arrived. Wasn't this far too coincidental? It was as if they had planned it beforehand.

I fully agreed with Grandpa Bao's decision. I did not want to see Ren Qiancang stained with blood for the sake of revenge. After eating, Ye Yan went straight back to sleep. Grandpa Bao said he wanted to go to the school first today to treat the classmates who helped out that day to a meal, just to show everyone that he, Grandpa Bao, was back on his feet and spare them the worry.

If it started raining, fire attacks would become unusable, and the undead army combined with mechanical traps would prove even more advantageous. By then, in order to secure the greatest advantage, the Song family might genuinely begin slaughtering civilians to manufacture a larger undead army.

Xuan Yueqin sensed the odd atmosphere and a scheme flashed through her mind: the more unlikable Xuan Lishuang was, wouldn't it only serve to highlight her own virtues?

At that moment, her heart plunged straight into the deepest layer of ice, chilling her to an unimaginable degree.

She pushed open the heavy doors of the Radiant Temple and stepped inside. Brilliant flames illuminated her eyes, and she cast a cold glance at the silent surroundings before raising her head toward the end of the candlelight.

"Whether it happens or not depends entirely on how you perform!" A plan was already forming in Huang Beiyue's mind.

"Brother Sun, you really hit the nail on the head." Meng Xiao overlooked the enemy troops' every move below the city walls and confirmed, "The enemy is building nests for themselves."
