Chapter 56
Xiao Yuyin's gaze slowly drifted to Nalan Heng, who had been holding her hand until drowsiness overtook him, causing him to fall asleep directly beside her bed.
"I..." Bai Wei was at a loss for words. Could Lu Qinghan have already made preparations to target them? So suddenly?
Instantly, alarm bells rang loudly in her mind, and she quickly pulled back her chair, intending to stand up. However, the figures in black swiftly closed in from all around, and in merely a fraction of a second, she was surrounded impenetrably.
His touch made her feel as though an insect were crawling over her skin, causing goosebumps to erupt all over her body.
"Such extravagance." To build a carriage out of agarwood—if this isn't extravagance, what is? She had always known Nalan Heng was wealthy, but she never imagined he was wealthy to this degree.
"Malong, a legendary mage—isn't he forbidden from taking action against ordinary people? There will be repercussions," Dean asked doubtfully.
The ink-black dagger seemed imbued with life as it danced nimbly in the slender young man's right hand.
The main issue was the scarcity of constructs. Mutants were the most rudimentary type of construct, their sole function being the operation of magical firearms, whereas standard robotic soldiers utilized technological firearms at best capable of short-range electrical attacks that could not be sustained for long.
He had no desire to attempt defying heaven to reverse his family's fate, and thus he gave up resistance. Ju Hu was highly regarded by Guan Yu and inducted into the army, while Guo Yuan was released by Ju Hu and his whereabouts remained unknown.
Feeling as though all his magical power was being sucked away by the Fengshui Fan, Nan Wuxiang's consciousness loosened, and he almost passed out. At that moment, he saw a golden light flash across his eyes and vanish, followed by a massive dark shadow descending over him.
Furthermore, the ability to summon generals for combat implied that the "Supreme Ruler" likely belonged to a summoner-class profession.
"Jiaoxing has accompanied me and delayed her own marriage. I just wonder what kind of character this tutor has. I must have a clear discussion with Jiaoxing about it first," Lady Feng replied after pondering Jiaoxing's question for a moment.
Too busy showing off, he had forgotten to lead the way. Xing'er asked no questions and rode quite a distance before Eunuch Pan realized they had taken the wrong turn.
Jin Jin rubbed his nose with a wicked smile, thinking to himself that he really wanted to let her try it, depending on whether she was willing or not.
Yu Zishen stood amidst the wind and snow, her frail figure appearing pitifully fragile. Having no idea how long she had waited, her face was covered in frost and snow, and even her eyelashes trembled slightly, expressing a profound sense of apology.
Nanny Ning hurried inside, and upon seeing the fragments scattered all over the floor, she quickly used a handkerchief to cushion her hands as she picked up the broken pieces of porcelain.
As for Xu Fan, his eyes began to light up as he looked at Ye Chen, considering the fellow was a master debater capable of making his older sisters laugh and beam with delight.
After letting go, he wiped his hands on his trousers, muttered a curse under his breath, unlocked the door, and slipped inside in the pitch dark.
This boss possessed an immense amount of experience points; defeating it would guarantee first place and even shatter the dungeon's leveling record.
Stepping out of the immortal domain grotto-heaven on the front foot, a fireball rushed out from the grotto-heaven's gate on the back foot, soaring thousands of meters high into the air before transforming into a gigantic ball of fire, releasing light and heat to illuminate most of the caldera.
He Yitong wrapped her arms around him even tighter, as if her anxious heart had finally found a sliver of reliance.
Even the *Tripitaka* and *Daoist Canon*, which he had only glanced through casually out of whim in the past, were now as crisp and clear in his memory as 4K original footage.
With this single whip strike, although Haoxuan felt a stinging pain on his back, he also sensed that there was no real force behind it. He tilted his head to glance at Huanyu and nodded.
Vivid red lines began to fade from her body. Like one possessed, she summoned tentacles once more and pierced Feng Chang's chest anew, only to be met with waves of "immortal" crimson light.
Mo Linglong walked through the village along the wide and clean [bluestone path with pebble borders, sponsored by the village entrance's sun], feeling in exceptionally high spirits.
Huanyu laughed, "Your big brother isn't blaming you, lift your head and eat properly." Haoxuan remained expressionless, but he could tell Huanyu was embarrassed, so he picked up a chicken leg, placed it in Huanyu's bowl, and picked up his own chopsticks.
Xiao Shan, however, was puzzled. Looking at Old Lady Xu's star-studded eyes, he joked internally: After the old lady, had he just acquired another fangirl?
This stems from the ancestral legacy passed down through generations containing the lifelong remains of sages—the ancestral flame is injected into newborn infants while still in the maternal womb, undergoing repeated baptisms akin to a thousand hammer strikes, granting geniuses an unparalleled height of spiritual insight.
Fox spirits, which ordinarily only existed in rumors and stories, had actually appeared in Luohe Village, only to be slain by a martial arts scholar, leaving behind several cubs hidden in the farmlands?
The air in the Alleson Ula Desert was thin, and the night was exceptionally bright, making the stars here appear much larger than elsewhere. Although it was the waxing crescent moon, its brightness was by no means inferior to a full moon. However, the wind blowing at night still carried a gentle warmth, making it much more comfortable than the daytime.
Simultaneously, a series of cracking sounds continuously echoed from within his body. His mind roared, and his entire body—including his tendons and bones—felt as though it had been battered by a heavy hammer as cracks materialized out of thin air. In the blink of an eye, Gu Feng was transformed into a bloody figure.
After putting the sleeping Gun Gun back into her room, she turned and headed to the alchemy chamber. Although there was not much time left, she could still teach a thing or two.
All of her power was transformed from the Moon Goddess's soul decree. Even though it was also thunder-attribute energy, it was a completely different existence. Yet, what X12 was currently utilizing was a power almost identical to her own.
In the blink of an eye, dawn arrived. Seeing Ye Huan looking thoughtfully at the spiritual elixir in his hand, Ye Ru decided not to disturb him and left the alchemy chamber on her own.
Not bothering to look surprised as he turned toward his Senior Brother Moyu—this was the first time he had ever seen his senior brother display such a comical side.
Looking left and right without finding Ye Ru, Gun Gun sensed Ye Ru's aura outside and scampered out with wagging paws.
