Chapter 44: Manifesting Holiness Before Others

Qi Yuanzhang raised a hand to touch his nose. "I was merely using him as an example, yet you actually admitted to it..." He lowered his hand and twirled the plain-banded jade thumb ring he was wearing.

Although it appeared outwardly that Eikor had repelled the Hori Kingdom, mages across various nations were gradually realizing in their hearts that the true masterminds dominating this war were the magic academies.

"Because I possess two streams of internal energy: one focuses externally, the other internally." The moment these words fell, a massive fist charged with irresistible force slammed into Wu Chengutian's stunned face.

He did not know why she had returned. Clearly, when she left just moments ago, there had not been a shred of hesitation.

"Was this dish of hers prepared under your guidance?" Hinako Inui asked eagerly.

Keller stared fixedly at the constantly flashing emergency lights inside the building; he had to make a decision, otherwise time would merely slip away in vain.

She had no impression whatsoever of the Li family, not even remembering what Madame Li looked like. Hearing her mother mention the Li family evoked no strong emotions in her heart either.

The opponent was a true sniper master. A profound realization arose within Mark Payne; he felt that he was likely going to die, only he had never imagined he would perish in such a place.

The morning sunlight in New York illuminated the glass of the towering skyscrapers until they shone like gigantic mirrors, radiating the vibe of a commercial blockbuster. Ren He rode his bicycle with a sketchbook strapped to his back, making his way toward Columbia University.

It had paid such a heavy price to knock Yun Chen down; if Yun Chen were to escape anyway, it would probably vomit blood from sheer depression! Thus, its eyes immediately flared with a scorching light, which shot directly toward the Xuanyuan Sword floating beside Yun Chen.

Everyone was quite disappointed, but the moment that "however" was uttered, their hearts instantly sprouted like overgrown weeds.

Yet Lin Yi seemed completely oblivious to it. No matter how Lin Chuxia called out to him, it was of no use; he remained in that same vacant, soulless state.

"No, no, no! This damned system definitely wouldn't be so kind!" But immediately after, Yun Chen shook his head vigorously, silently reminding himself not to fall for the trick.

He kept hesitating in his heart: should he choose to wait out the entire night, or should he leave early just to play it safe? This truly was a difficult choice.

This meant the enemy had been plotting for a long time, and now that they had gathered people together, they must be planning to take action! Even if they did not strike this time, perhaps the next gathering, or the one after that, would ultimately pose a threat to the Qin family.

Seeing the entire Immortal Island ship on the verge of being swallowed by the immense waves and the perils descending from the sky, destined to plunge into the ocean depths and backlash against all the disciples of Immortal Island.

"My cultivation is still salvageable?" Upon hearing this, Liu Dan's eyes instantly lit up. Ever since that severe injury in his youth, cultivation had seemed utterly hopeless. Maintaining his current level of attainment had required an enormous amount of rare treasures, so Liu Dan had long since given up expecting any further progress.

The Black Demon and Spirit Demon looked at the energy gate with extreme apprehension, hesitating over whether to go through or not. The Prophet and I stepped directly inside, arriving at the God of Time's tent, closely followed by Roya and Xuanyuan. Left with no choice, the Black Demon and Spirit Demon could only follow us in.

As for the wedding ceremony, I care not to elaborate; everything was fake anyway. I am only marrying Zixuan, and the rest was merely a show for the public.

The battle grew even more intense at this point, as they were drawing closer to the city walls. The more intense the battle became, the higher the casualties mounted. The enemy infantrymen fought with ferocious brutality, rushing forward indiscriminately just to toss a sandbag before fleeing. Meanwhile, the enemy archers continuously suppressed the archers stationed atop the city battlements.

Hearing this, Abe Michigaku almost instantly hurled a paper talisman toward the spot where the stone statue had originally stood. The talisman fluttered through the air for a moment before suddenly bursting into a brilliant ball of light.

"Good! Brother Yun is the best! As long as you are by my side, I will obey whatever you say." Liu Eun snuggled into Yun Zhen's embrace, happily closing her eyes as she felt the rising and falling chest of this passionate young man.

The result was quite unexpected. The moment the two of them stepped inside, Qin Han, who had previously bitten his tongue and stubbornly refused to speak, actually began crying and begging for mercy, pleading only for a sip of water.

An Ningyu held a very high status within the An family. Hearing his words, not only did An Qin shut her mouth, but An Qin's mother also obediently recounted what they had just been doing.

Rinne used her spirit medium ability once again to inspect that wall, but the wall was already completely bare.

Before long, the rebel forces either perished or fled; how could they possibly dare to linger in the West City for even a moment longer? Swarming like agitated bees, they scrambled frantically toward the south and the north.

For the two of them to meet on the battlefield was truly a rare occurrence. Witnessing Wang Yanqing wield his heavy iron spear like a startled dragon emerging from the water—unrestrained and free, yet lacking nothing in fierce and sharp offense—he managed to clash with Yun Zhen for a dozen or so bouts before turning and fleeing toward the opposite side.

According to folklore, ancient copper coins possessed the property of suppressing ghosts. Using a coin sword might indeed play a role in subduing malevolent spirits, and since it was forged from the coinage of the demon-driving Shen family, its efficacy could certainly be guaranteed.

At this point, Yi was utterly bewildered. Four werewolves? Where on earth did four werewolves come from? Could it be Hua? Yet, he and Hua had a prior agreement not to casually bite people, lest the secret of the werewolves be exposed to ordinary humans. Had Hua failed to abide by the agreement?

"There's really no need. I have more in my car. Do you need any?"厉连城 cast his gaze entirely upon Jiang Beiqiao, speaking in a gentle tone.

Gu Li timely poured a bucket of cold water on their enthusiasm. She indeed had other arrangements in mind for them, but before implementing those, she wanted to drill them in the basics first.
