“Are you all a bunch of cowards?”

Qiu Liangzhi’s eyes burned red with anger as he shouted, “They’re human, and so are you! You all swagger around like you’re somebody, shouting and showing off, but now the Green Sand Gang has scared you witless? Well?”

Not a single soul among those captured from the Chiba Gang replied.

Seeing this, Qiu Liangzhi grew even more furious, stomping his feet in rage, his shame at having boasted only to become a laughingstock making his head spin and his vision blur, like an indescribable fragrance spreading across the battlefield and into the camps on either side. The soldiers, who had been fearful, calmed down after breathing in the strange scent, and even began to feel a longing for the hidden sanctuary that had not yet appeared.

But in an instant, when he learned that Hu Mingchen not only had a close relationship with them but had also ascended directly to the position of boss, Chen Kang felt as if a thunderbolt had exploded over his head. His mind buzzed for a long time before he could react.

A single seed drifted slowly down into the courtyard of Qingcheng Temple on the cold wind. No sooner had it touched the ground than it eagerly took root and sprouted, blossoming into a tree full of delicate peach blossoms.

The spiritual herbs here truly were of the finest quality; even by outside standards, their combined value would reach tens or even hundreds of billions of spirit stones.

First, some other celebrities received leaks: Jin Jiayu’s role had been recast, and not just before filming, but after she had already shot some scenes. The one replacing her was Su Cha, the contestant who was currently making waves on a popular talent show.

Second, as the saying goes, “The barefoot aren’t afraid of those with shoes.” Unless Sword Fate Sect had lost their minds, they would never risk a head-on, life-and-death clash with us.

Having heard this, Xu Shaoming glanced curiously at Sun Qian. He had never trained systematically and had always relied on Su Yan’s help, so he didn’t know much about the ways of cultivation.

The leaders of the ten blockade factions all frowned in shock, their faces filled with disbelief as they gazed at the gradually warping sky. Such a phenomenon could only be caused by the hand of a Divinity Splitter—who was preparing to strike? Bai Ruoxian’s aura continued to rise, her face vigilant as she watched the heavens.

Normally, no one would ever choose to back down, but now was not the time for stubbornness.

Seeing Su Cha already dressed in her wedding gown, the bridesmaids behind her, Le Anqi and Jin Mou, couldn’t help but shower her with praise.

Mo Xiaosheng wasn’t sure whether he had ever shouted such words in his dreams, but whether he had or not, Feng Han should never have said them in a moment like this—it was too inappropriate, leaving Mo Xiaosheng mortified.

“Paying off a debt? Tell me, how did you end up owing money?” Guan Heping was ever the curious one.

A dozen or so teachers marched out the school gates, joined by many students. Although there were several cafeterias on campus, some students preferred to eat out or buy snacks, making the school entrance a hubbub of activity.

Even so, they could barely manage to protect themselves. In the face of countless Ghost Emperors, their strength was woefully inadequate; their extinction was only a matter of time.

In truth, it was all quite simple: this mysterious figure needed Xiao Long to take one of the two remaining Everlasting Lamps and, according to their previous agreement, enter the planet of King Star to merge the general’s Everlasting Lamp into the planetary heart of King Star.

Zhang Fan relayed the news he had gathered from the notice board, and Bai Xi and the others all wore grave expressions.

Now, with Li Tianyi having chosen a compromise, he found himself caught in a dilemma.

Qi Baishan had an odd feeling. He knew his brother well. He didn’t believe Qi Baifeng would have any feelings for his wife; Qi Baifeng was not a man to tolerate even a grain of sand in his eye. There had to be another scheme behind today’s actions.

With Lin Yang’s cultivation now at the level of True Immortal, he could naturally see that this Returning Inkstone contained the Grand Dao of Time and the Grand Dao of Space. The Grand Dao of Space was easy to understand: moving from one place to another was an application of space. As for the Grand Dao of Time, traversing time, returning to the past or leaping into the future—this was the application of time.
