Volume 1, Chapter 133: Cross-City Rescue

Jiang Ning never imagined that there would be someone hiding in the back seat of Jian Shuyan’s car. A living, breathing person.

As for his physical body, tempered by the mana of the Golden Core stage, it had grown even stronger; perhaps before long, he would be able to withstand magical artifacts with his bare skin.

"What? You’re ordering them to withdraw?" Helian Yi was stunned for a moment. That was a plan she had sacrificed her own purity to secure, yet Xiao Yunyan had neutralized it so effortlessly.

Xu Miaoyun’s fair face flushed a deep crimson. She lowered her head and toyed with the hem of her skirt, too shy to look up.

Wu Yuan stifled a laugh, offering no explanation. He believed that one day, the girl would be moved by the immense paternal and maternal love he and Xin Ruyan showered upon her.

This type of savage beast possessed little intelligence; they were gentle in temperament and slow in movement. As long as there was enough wastewater to feed on, they basically wouldn't budge from their spot.

He had always taken a hands-off approach with the Zhao family, leaving them to their own devices. One could even say that Zhao Shiwen had replaced him and Zhao Jiacheng as the two pillars of the Zhao family.

Shen Xiangning thanked him repeatedly, looking somewhat overwhelmed, but after sitting down, she didn't dare touch her chopsticks, remaining sitting bolt upright.

"That's good. Once you get used to these things, they aren't much. John and the others reacted quite intensely when they first saw it, too, but they were fine afterward," Ding Ze said calmly.

The giant rat straightened its limbs slightly, moving its paws across the ground.

She bowed deeply, still struggling to contain her inner excitement. This was a goal that had taken the Qimeng Group two years to achieve, yet it had been accomplished all at once.

"Nothing happened, did it? Hehe, it seems something really should happen." As Kato Mieko spoke, she wrapped her arms around Yashiko’s neck and kissed him passionately.

It was still a matter of consolidating his foundation, but while Jiang Yuan’s previous efforts had been aimless and holistic, this time, following his insights from the lecture, the consolidation was incredibly purposeful.

It was hard to imagine that these young supremes, hailing from ancient clans and forbidden lands, would become so servile at the edge of the Immortal Ascension Platform.

There was no telling how many misdeeds this fellow had committed under Lin Yi’s name, or how many enemies he had brought upon Lin Yi.

Jiang Yuan threw a punch, instantly shattering several barbarians in front of him. Even a barbarian Divine Marquis among them was killed on the spot, crushed by Jiang Yuan as if he were an ant.

This time, with his mental power reaching the fourth level, Tang Zheng clearly sensed changes that were vastly different from before.

A crisp, metallic clashing sound rang out, and a crack three feet deep appeared beneath Lin Yi’s feet.

Without her making any visible movement, her previously pale complexion suddenly became translucent.

Clearly, to break the monopoly that the Eternal Mountain held over the resources of the Creation Immortal Realm, there were only two ways. The first was to gain the recognition of the Immortal Ascension Platform, allowing one to travel freely to and from the Creation Immortal Realm from then on without any constraints.

He tightened his right fist unconsciously. Destiny, what are you trying to tell me? Glory and benevolence? Or the burial of glory and benevolence?

"My period usually lasts for five days. It’s only the third day, and the flow has already stopped. Do I have some kind of terminal illness?" Xia Qing’s expression was grave.

However, asking Zhou Jian to protect Keke had effectively dragged him into this. Chu Qingyun’s tender, fair fingers twisted tightly together. "Ah Jian, please help Sister Chu one last time."

And what about that "the passage is closing" nonsense in the prophecy? Damn crop circles, damn aliens—open your bull eyes and look, is this what you call the passage closing?
