Volume One, Chapter 33: Neglecting One’s Proper Occupation

At last, the round, dark-red magical crystal burst into a crimson halo that enveloped Mofuru’s entire body. At the same time, countless dense black lines spread across him, sinister and terrifying, exuding an aura of decay. One after another, they began converging toward the round, dark-red magical crystal on his forehead.

Still, it seemed that Italian teams did not pursue the Italian Cup with the same fervor that English teams showed in their pursuit of the FA Cup. Among Europe’s Big Four—or Big Five—leagues, English clubs were probably the most devoted to winning their domestic cup competitions.

With Old Lin’s cry of astonishment, all the hundred or so demons of the Blood Python Army dropped to their knees in perfect unison before Ye Yao, loudly proclaiming, “Long live the Netherfire Emperor!”

After their conversation the previous night, everyone had come to admire Ye Yao completely. Even though they had not yet fought together in earnest, their confidence had already increased tremendously.

The interaction between the two of them went unnoticed by the students from beginning to end, because everyone’s attention was captivated by the exchange between the new teacher and Koro-sensei. They had even made fun of the pair’s utterly discordant interactions several times.

If he were facing a pure-blooded dragon, even Merlin, with his strength, could kill an opponent one level above himself.

Todd politely declined the invitations to dance offered by the noble young ladies, rose from his seat, and, beneath everyone’s watchful eyes, slowly walked toward the farm’s garden.

Since several people had been injured, the village elders present gathered for a brief discussion and decided to roast the wild boars that had caused the “traffic accident” and been killed on the spot. This would help soothe everyone’s anger while also providing some lively entertainment—a perfect solution all around.

She nodded solemnly. Although her expression revealed nothing, she was delighted that she had been able to help her master.

“It should be connected to the other five unknown spaces…” Just as this realization flashed through Xintian’s mind, an overwhelming fatigue swept over him. He could no longer hold on and immediately sank into a deep sleep.

In an instant, a huge countdown in Arabic numerals appeared on the large screen, ticking away one second at a time.

Moreover, it was currently rush hour, so nearly everyone passing by was staring at Chen Xu with all kinds of looks. Chen Xu could only keep his head lowered, afraid to let his gaze wander lest he provoke even greater public outrage.

“Master, can I still practice martial arts?” Su Huai asked, unable to restrain himself as he watched Grandmaster Wuwei nod and shake his head by turns.

For some reason, the man, who had witnessed countless bloody storms in the martial world, had actually become frightened upon seeing someone who looked like a student.

It looked like a burning painting. Scarlet flames ignited along the edge of the darkness, while the endless blackness began surging in all directions and rapidly vanished beneath the firelight. Looking closely, one could see that the flowing darkness was actually made up of black jellyfish.

“You never act properly. Come on, let’s go home. I’m exhausted!” Wei Chixue said, leaning against my shoulder.

A large area naturally gave rise to a certain trend: every few streets, several shops with similar functions would appear. That was how the Imperial Capital came to have places such as Spirit-Medicine Street and Secret-Treasure Street.

However, the bamboo flute Chen Xu had owned before was no famous instrument. It was merely a green-bamboo flute his grandfather had given him. It was not expensive, but it was something whose value could never be measured in money.

How terrifyingly fierce Jiang Wuya’s attack was! Even an insignificant ripple from it was far beyond what a Heaven-grade cultivator could withstand. That wave of energy immediately inflicted dreadful casualties upon the Ice Clan’s army.

As for last night’s battle with the Sky Lion Mercenary Group… Well, strictly speaking, it had been nothing more than a one-sided crushing victory. The soldiers from the Wa Kingdom, on the other hand, were quite likely to suffer from postwar trauma.

Chen Tangjing waited silently for Yin to speak, showing no emotion. Unexpectedly, the man’s expression began to turn unnatural. So he could feel embarrassed after all. Perhaps he had thought of how he had opposed Chen Tang at every turn before, and at most offered false courtesy. This time, he genuinely wanted to stand on the Chen family’s side, yet he seemed unable to bring himself to say it.

Although this newly released game certainly would not participate in the New Year’s promotional discount, it was precisely the game Wu Lan and Su Yi most wanted to buy.

After thinking it over, the cost would amount to no more than two days. If he could truly be transferred to the criminal police brigade, it would be a major gain.

The elders, flying through the air, circled briefly before opening their enormous mouths and spitting out beads. These beads were the beast cores of their divine beasts, containing all their cultivation and power.

Zhou You glanced at the several powerful lamps above the reviewing stand. They illuminated the entire training ground as brightly as day, making him narrow his eyes involuntarily.

Gao Qing opened the bathroom door. Instead of walking toward the bed, he went to the computer desk on the other side and sat down.

Because, out of the kindness of his heart, he had helped his biological father, Bian Jinwei, awaken the ancient supernatural power within his body.

“Before they knew it, they had crossed the mountains behind them. Looking down, they saw a vast plain. That’s the place.” Feng Zhan pointed toward the foot of the mountain as he spoke.

After Meng Qi was injured, he began to feel somewhat dizzy. He assumed it was because he had lost too much blood from his wounds, so he did not mention it to Nami.

Looking ahead again, he saw Mei Jie struggling to sit up and raise a bottle of orange-red potion to his lips. Immediately, he circulated his strength, rose, and dashed to Mei Jie’s side. With a swift motion, he snatched the potion from his hand and kicked Mei Jie away once more.

In fact, he had already planned to ambush Zhu Yingliuguang when she arrived at Watermoon Palace. Unexpectedly, Xiang Canglan had intercepted her first, while Yu Lingzhi had shown no intention of stopping him. That was why the Bloodwing Bat King had hurried over.

She Qi’s heart stirred. Seeing the increasingly savage expressions on the Seven Wolves of Lingshan, he vaguely formed a few suspicions of his own. However, he could only bury those suspicions deep in his heart, unwilling to reveal them to An’an.

“Of course you should go. Witnessing his transformation will benefit you as well.” The Primal Chaos Divine Flame urged Qin Yang to leave.

Guo Chuanzong was rendered speechless for a moment. The Lord of the Shu Mountain Sword Sect was absolutely right. Even if Yin Xiumei and her younger brother were added to the number, it would still be impossible for them to fill this entire pool with blood. They might manage it with ten times as many people.

Guanyin Bodhisattva drew a deep breath and felt wave after wave of helplessness. Some matters could not be exposed. The Monkey King could act without restraint, but she could not.

The Western City faction was at its weakest right now. If Ji Ya demanded Changzhou at this moment, Western City would certainly oppose her with all its strength. As for the other two factions, it was difficult to say. The three families had contended with one another for so many years that the decline of any one of them would inevitably invite the other two to kick it while it was down.
