Chapter 46: Blasphemy 22
Even if Dong Xian were to come, could he really take advantage of the situation? Of course not. Their camp was backed by steep mountains with no way through, and faced water in the front, meaning anyone wanting to launch a sneak attack would need the ability to fly across water. As for the other two sides, they were heavily fortified with all sorts of ambushes and traps.
Zhong Lingyu dared not waste time lingering in idle talk. He hurriedly placed the unconscious Su Yan onto a chair, pulled down the hood of her raincoat, and revealed her peerless face. Zhong Lingyu felt a slight sense of triumph; her hair was not even wet, proving that the protection measures upon arrival had been quite thorough.
Taking advantage of the daytime, Li Tianchou decided to head straight to the hospital to visit Daqi. Just as he reached the bottom of the administration building, he heard the team leader shout, "Tianchou, don't leave, there's a phone call for you." Li Tianchou felt puzzled. In the city of SZ, apart from fellow townsmen and colleagues, he knew no one else—who could possibly be calling him?
Regarding the analysis made by these people, although Zhao Jing did not discuss it explicitly with Chu Feng, she felt certain that Chu Feng must have known what was going on in his mind; otherwise, he would not have been hanging out with those people all day long.
This wine required no testing—anyone who drank it for the first time was bound to be floored, though it was undeniably fine wine. Once Wang Feng recovered from the intoxicating aroma, a surge of poetic inspiration overcame him, and he spontaneously began to recite a verse.
With a muffled bang, the entire world seemed to fall silent. Zhong Lingyu and Su Yan had already realized the truth: Su Rui was merely putting up a false front. Yet, in her desperate eagerness to save someone, she had made a fatal mistake, forgetting to snatch the gun away first.
After resolving the matter, Chu Feng returned to his classroom. At that moment, everyone was attending the first class. Chu Feng knocked for permission to enter, walked straight in, and after scanning the room to spot Zhao Jing, he made his way over and sat beside her.
Having completed the demonstration of movable type printing, everyone's confidence grew even stronger. The various households separately discussed the issue of equity shares; the joint inventory of their respective assets had to be carried out first, followed by a meeting with Gao Chong in the afternoon.
As witnessed earlier, it had merely swatted gently to repel the Golden-Armored Daoist Lord, and let out a roar to make the three manifestations of heaven and earth tremble with fear. Now, with four manifestations of heaven and earth gathered together to resist, it should be about the same for the hound-like beast.
The sudden display of affection from Ji Yingying failed to deceive her. Ji Yingying still remembered how Ji Yingying had previously ostracized, targeted, and belittled her. The chilling gaze of Ji Yingying remained deeply etched in Ji Yingying's memory. Moreover, in the backyard were her father-in-law and mother-in-law, who had turned into zombies and were trapped by her Brother Yichen, so she did not dare to go there.
However, the side effect was that in Ling'er's mind, he had already become synonymous with omnipotence—on par with the arch-villain Lord Moon-Worshiper, and perhaps even more formidable. Ling'er had no worries whatsoever that he might get hurt.
Just at that moment, the soldiers amidst the thick fog suddenly heard the miserable screams of their comrades nearby, followed by a rapid burst of gunfire. Their nerves instantly tensed up as they rushed forward to provide reinforcements.
As the start of the school term drew closer day by day, the four Taohua siblings and Old Man Zhao returned to Four Trees Village in advance, thoroughly cleaning their home inside and out.
Yet amidst this dreamlike, other-worldly scene, two figures dressed identically like twins simultaneously curved the corners of their lips. The freezing cold, capable of deceiving even time itself, seemed to have no effect on them whatsoever, and the hand seals they formed finally came to a simultaneous halt.
Directly beneath them lay a gigantic mountain, with a nearly circular base hundreds of thousands of meters in diameter, yet standing only a little over forty thousand meters tall. Its summit appeared as though it had been sheared flat by some immense force, forming a colossal platform.
An email was sent to Kirito instructing him to continue tracking Schmitt, while Arthur and Asuna also continued to track Yulier. Not long into the pursuit, they spotted the already deceased Caynz.
At the end of July, the main undead army launched a fierce assault on Iron-Grip Fortress. After three days of grueling combat, they still could not make the slightest headway against Iron-Grip Fortress.
"You cannot do this!" the Great Shaman cried out urgently, raising his head to look at the young man's expression. He knew that the youth was truly willing to do anything, however mad, for the sake of that girl. After all, not even the Soul-Eating Gu had shaken his resolve to leave her.
"If I hadn't come back, how much longer were you planning to stand in the rain? Aren't you afraid of getting sick!" Taohua said with a stern face.
Emerging on the other side, they found themselves in an exceptionally spacious cavern. Ever-burning lamps fueled by beast fat were distributed along all four walls, illuminating the entire space brilliantly.
Yan Wan looked at his face, but shadows quietly drifted across it, one after another. Was he truly alright?
The trajectory of the formation was already quite clear. Where to exit, which node to breakthrough, and which thread of spiritual energy to sever—all of this had already taken shape in Xi Yan's mind. Now, it was simply a matter of executing it thoroughly.
Pan Long's combination of soft and hard tactics genuinely moved Charlier Wen. He might not care about the life or death of the Weixiang tribe, but he could not afford to ignore his own future days.
"Attention all students and teachers, a violent incident is currently taking place at the school gate. Please mind your own personal safety and evacuate the teaching building through the safe exits under the guidance of your teachers!" The school broadcast further emphasized the severity of the situation, and Saya Takagi instantly felt a creeping sense of uneasy terror.
Upon hearing this, Yexuan immediately recalled Mother Lu's earlier mention that all the official offices here were located together, and she instantly understood that Guild Leader Lan was now practically her neighbor.
Her own courtyard had originally had its doors and windows tightly shut, but no sooner had she stepped through the entrance than someone came running to report the news. By this time, Caixia and the others had already opened the doors and rushed out to welcome her. Seeing her enter, they scrambled to lift the door curtains and pour hot water, bustling about in a flurry of activity.
It was impossible to simply shatter the "prison barrier" to allow Natsuki Nangong to awaken, and then leave the super magical criminals trapped within to escape—the strong sense of mission and responsibility inherent in Natsuki-chan herself would never allow her to do such a thing.
Yet Hong Taiji possessed an even greater imperial aura, was far more willing to make sacrifices, and was vastly superior at reading the shifting tides. Or perhaps, given that the realm had just been established and the four seas were unsettled, he simply appeared more ruthless upon the stage of history.
"Their family is in the hotel business, owning two five-star luxury hotels and three high-end Western restaurants in City A," Yan Yixin said, following Yan Wan's gaze and offering a knowing explanation.
Until the money they had on them was reduced to just over a dozen yuan, entirely consisting of one-yuan bills and smaller change—kept aside specifically to make change the next time they sold their hunted game.
