Chapter 65
"You bastard, you actually reached the Ninth-Rank Venerable realm, yet you disappear for three years the moment you run off. What do you have to say for yourself?" Supreme Master Yang gazed at Qin Chu with a pair of pretty eyes, her expression laced with dissatisfaction.
Yu Danggui echoed in her heart, "I'm waiting." She had wanted to speak up as well, but before she could, the man turned around once more, fixing his gaze squarely on Xue Jinghai.
As the Rolls-Royce glided smoothly along, a cell phone ringtone suddenly broke the quiet. He glanced briefly at the phone resting on the center console, where the caller ID displayed—Shanshan.
The Netherworld Dynasty was unlike other planes. In any other plane, naturally, such a matter would not warrant Commander Bai intervening personally.
"I knew it, you are a kind child." Qin Zheng smiled, his fingers brushing through her yellowish hair while a flash of sorrow crossed his eyes.
She attempted meditation just as she had the previous night, no longer trying to capture anything elusive, but instead attempting to perceive with her body. She discovered a pattern: during meditation, with every inhalation she took, her heart grew slightly warm. A current of heat would originate from the heart, gradually flowing through her entire body, and by the time she exhaled, it would return precisely to her dantian.
"Did you guys see that Thousand-Hand Buddha just now? My grandfather donated that, and he said it's worth 100,000 US dollars." A dark-haired teenager boasted proudly to his companions in fluent Russian, a sign of an immigrant family's earnest integration into this land.
Nie Wanluo's words were thus abruptly cut short. Her fluctuating emotions were forced to calm down, yet a sense of unease followed closely behind. There were some things she simply lacked the courage to voice at just any moment. She looked toward Qiao Neng with deep guilt.
Yet the cultivation world always harbored some bizarre spiritual plants and demonic beasts that favored such environments. For instance, boneless worms loved to lay their eggs in places like this, and their eggs were an indispensable material for brewing undefiled potion.
A streak of rainbow also lit up after the rain. Gazing at that rainbow, the youth's eyes instantly brightened. Just like this post-storm rainbow, brilliant and dazzling, he headed straight toward the Southern Cloud Holy Land.
During yesterday's training session in the defensive chamber, he had reaped immense benefits. Consequently, he increasingly felt that Red Jujube was not harboring a private grudge to exact revenge on him, but was genuinely training him according to a well-laid-out plan.
"That is not a problem, my Führer." With no outsiders present, Frank Alston directly used the address that rolled off his tongue most easily. Having just witnessed the terrifying destiny-shaping power of the Empire's supreme ruler—able to turn hands to clouds and rain at a whim—he naturally had no desire to test that power personally.
As soon as the news of the press conference spread, the entire hospital instantly erupted like a boiling pot, with everyone buzzing with excitement. Especially those insecure reporters who were still waiting anxiously; upon hearing the news, they were so thrilled they were practically moved to tears.
"Very well! I'll give you 6,000 vehicles!" Following a series of pacifying policies to stabilize the rear, production in many of the Third Reich's occupied territories had begun to gradually recover. Compared to August, Dominis now commanded greater strength to mobilize and provide the front lines with more substantial support when necessary.
The outcome of the battle had been doomed from the very start; the only variable left was how long the Allied pilots could hold out. When the Ta-152 fighters joined this feast of slaughter, the Allied bomber formation disregarded orders, temporarily abandoning their attack plan and turning back to flee the combat zone.
With a loud crash, Meng Fan's reddened index finger struck the opponent's fist, causing the adversary's whole body to shudder and instantly leaving a vulnerability in their defense. Immediately afterward, Meng Fan released a burst of the Gu family's chilling aura, disrupting the opponent's defense once more.
If this were the case, the altar's magic cube would be even easier to locate—he only needed to set up a few short-distance teleportation arrays between the cubes and teleport back and forth a few times to find the direction from which the repulsive force originated.
Hearing this, Ni Yuan could not help looking somewhat astonished. He stared blankly at him for quite a while before asking again, "Senior Bai, don't you want to find out a bit more?"
At these words, Hun Yuanzi's mouth twitched. The fire of enthusiasm that had just ignited within his heart was instantly doused as if by a basin of icy water, vanishing into thin air in the blink of an eye.
Seeing the scene before them, the others only froze for a brief moment before each brandishing their weapons and charging toward Meng Fan. Yet this momentary hesitation allowed the people of Han in attendance to thoroughly experience the taste of a sound beating.
The next morning, everyone had breakfast together and boarded the tour bus, with Manager Xiong serving as both tour leader and guide.
Above Longtang Mouth, a few birds seemed to be flying about. However, around Longtang itself—where numerous animals should naturally have been visible coming to drink water—not many creatures were to be found, let alone any bipedal ones.
According to Zhao Cai, Tong Potian and the others had already clashed with the students of Sirius Academy, but thanks to Ada's secret assistance, they hadn't suffered much.
Next, Fei'er and Uncle Naji selected the 150 strongest individuals, armed them, and sent them outside the village to set up defenses, forming the first line of defense. They then chose another 150 people to guard various crucial routes within the village, establishing the second line of defense. Over a hundred more guarded the ancestral hall as the final line of defense, ensuring that the ancestral tablets would be protected at all costs.
Bidding farewell to everyone at the Green Ancient House, Torchic headed toward his first destination: the headquarters of the Big Eater Catering Corporation to discuss specific endorsement details and sign the contract.
"If he's not home, tear his room apart until you find it! No matter what! This watch must be here! Go immediately!" Ming Lou was thoroughly enraged and panicked, prompting Ming Cheng to nod hastily and hurry out.
That night, many couples took the stage to recount the stories of how they met. Shen Tong and Bai Yu both drank a great deal of alcohol. In the end, a relatively sober Shen Tong carried an utterly intoxicated Bai Yu back to the dormitory.
Guan Ying was perched on my neck, completely ignoring my dissuasion, and practically dancing a jig right on top of my shoulders and neck.
