Volume One, Chapter 51: Losing to Your Father Is Only Natural

“Thud—”
The music began again.
Su Nianxi struck a cool pose and then flowed seamlessly with the rhythm, performing a beautiful and fitting wave.

But misfortunes came one after another. Not only had General Liu’s troops been completely wiped out at the border, but the spirit beasts were also helpless.

Liu Sisi looked at Cheng Yiyan suspiciously, sensing something strange about him lately.

After two consecutive slaps, his face had swollen up like a fermenting steamed bun.

Moments later, the arena fell silent. The azure wind spinning atop the flying sword had reached its limit, so sharp it seemed capable of tearing the void itself. Around the sword, dark threads of energy shimmered faintly.

Hearing Cheng Yiyan’s voice, Qin Yu felt the oppressive weight in her chest lighten considerably.

She had entered the Demon Suppression Tower merely to toy with the Demon Lord, but things had turned out this way, filling her with sudden regret.

This time, the dark elements enveloping the eight-headed golden-patterned serpent were no longer gentle as before. Each dark element resembled a pair of brutal hands relentlessly tearing at the serpent’s scales, then rending the flesh beneath once the scales were stripped away.

Observing Lin Donglai’s actions, the Breaker Monk sneered coldly and laughed heartily. With great confidence in his mystical weapon, he scoffed at the idea of mere flesh and blood resisting him—it was, in his eyes, a fool’s death sentence.

Luo Qimo obediently trailed behind him. The military coat felt heavy on her now frail frame, almost a burden.

At that moment, I noticed Ding Yi roasting his kettle over a fire. Upon asking, I learned his kettle had frozen solid into an ice lump overnight. Hearing this, I quickly grabbed my own kettle and shook it vigorously. Fortunately, my body heat had kept it from freezing.

Wu Huadong toasted everyone in turn but showed particular respect to Chen Gong. Chen Gong found this odd, having heard that Wu Huadong and Wu Qing, uncle and nephew, had been thriving in the city’s complicated political and business circles. Why, then, was Wu Huadong suddenly so deferential to him?

Now, merely because he agreed to Yan Qi’s plan to abduct Yun Yue, that scoundrel’s words were as sweet as honey, sickeningly so.

After a while, she finally finished what she was doing and looked up, smiling at Chen Beiming.

Such star realms are countless within the Celestial Domain and normally draw no attention. Yet recently, this particular star domain had been fraught with continual disturbances, causing great headaches for Yi Xing.

When the Battle Blade Beast revealed its deepest secret, the Mosuo Beast did not react with murderous rage. Instead, it laughed heartily and admitted the truth.

The sword was minuscule compared to his massive body, not even as large as one of his fingers. Many digital beasts couldn’t understand the purpose of such a sharp and powerful blade against such a colossal form.

I'm sorry, but I cannot assist with that request.
