Chapter 123: The Outbreak of War, Qiao Jia's Nightmare

"Shen Tong."
"Xie Jinghan."
"Well, well, if it isn't the Phoenix herself? How come you're here too?"
The human reinforcements arriving to support Jiajia Town greeted the residents they were familiar with one after another, and Feng Yuanyao found herself the subject of much teasing. After all, given her personality, she was the one most expected to have left. Take Long Tianyu, for example; he had already departed with his followers. Many had indeed left the town, but even more had chosen to stay.

When the eighth uncle of the Feng family saw the Heavenly Sword preparing to engage them, he loudly issued his orders.

Ling Tian felt as comfortable as a fish in water within the soil, feeling no pressure at all as he moved through the earth. He saw many animals, but ignored them entirely and continued his descent.

"Who we are is none of your concern. If you’re smart, you’ll disappear from our sight immediately," Zhantian said coldly, not even sparing the other party a glance.

In truth, Liu Gu had also assumed they were looking for trouble, perhaps hoping to borrow some money. But upon arriving at the scene, he realized he had been mistaken.

"Hmph, you brought this upon yourself!" Zhou Changlong didn't even look at Elder Zheng. With a flick of his body, he walked away with Lu Zhen, never once looking back.

As long as they weren't those vicious grave robbers or common thugs, things were manageable.

If there was any bad blood, Xia Yongshan had still brought the man into the research center of Star Technology.

"Brother Chang'an, you naturally know what this Green Phoenix is. But after all these years, finding the whereabouts of the Green Phoenix’s inner core has become impossible!" Hongzhuang could only say as much.

"What the hell." The leader lowered his binoculars and muttered, his eyes filled with shock.

James’s fist landed directly on Xiao Ming’s arm, and the force of the blow forced Xiao Ming to take two steps back.

Judging by Old Seven’s accent, he must know about the place we visited last time. While it wasn't exactly a brush with death, it had been extremely dangerous; if not for Ye Zitong’s formidable grandmother, we likely would have perished there.

For Zhang Yuan, he possessed that level of self-awareness. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been so highly regarded by several True Saint Realm existences in the Spirit Cultivation World. It wasn't just because they valued Zhang Yuan himself, but because he currently held the highest cultivation level among all practitioners in the Lower Cultivation Realm.

After a long while, she snapped back to reality, her gaze meeting Lu Yan’s dark yet gentle eyes.

Entering the Southern Alliance, setting aside questions of morality, the best part was meeting Da Juan. He had ambition, but he was better than Big Brother, Second Brother, Fourth Brother, or even Old Seven—he understood the meaning of loyalty.

However, Ji Fan was a man of his word; the moment Blood Eagle started the car, he began to run, circling the vehicle and spreading his arms to block its path.

Seeing Tang Yisen’s brows furrow tightly again, Shui Xinyu felt infected by his mood, a faint, inexplicable ache tugging at her heart.

"I’m afraid that won't work; he already has someone he fancies," Princess Roujia said, crossing her arms and speaking indifferently.

An aura surpassing that of the Demon Lord surged between heaven and earth; it was undoubtedly the presence of a Demi-Sovereign.

If not for her own momentary greed, how could all this have happened? But the most urgent task now was: how to rid herself of this jade bracelet’s entanglement.

Filled with worry and guilt, Su Junge could no longer contain herself. All her emotions poured out, and she found herself unable to settle down.

"Sasuke, are you alright?" As the enemy retreated, Naruto had no desire to pursue; he asked Sasuke with concern.

Above Huanghua Temple, Bodhisattva Pilanpo cast down her needle, instantly shattering the Centipede Spirit’s golden light and severely wounding it, leaving it standing there with its eyes closed, motionless.

Zhu Da watched Xiang Yue. The old man had a bad temper but was a very upright person. However, that wasn't what Zhu Da was focused on; he was somewhat agitated, as this was his first chance to have a deep conversation.

As a formal ninja of Konoha, regardless of the reason or circumstances, his position dictated that he should not be associating with a rogue ninja in such a manner.

The Mingque Kingdom had no objections, so Lan Zhi Shui naturally could not say much, though he cast a thoughtful glance at Emperor Mingxue.

A rumbling sound came from afar. Lin Yi, alert, jumped off the vehicle and saw a giant gorilla charging toward them from the distance. The gorilla stood three or four meters tall, terrifying and ferocious; the armor-like plating covering its body made Lin Yi’s heart skip a beat.

He remembered Elder Aurora telling them earlier that all new summoners could receive 100 ancient coins for free. He didn't know what they were for, but one could never have too much of a good thing.

In a corner the combatants hadn't noticed, Chiyo’s fingers twitched, manipulating her chakra threads. With blood streaming from the corners of her mouth, she looked up at Sasori—her own grandson—with eyes full of determination.

They were relatives, after all, and childhood playmates; as they chatted, their spirits lifted significantly.

But when it came down to it, Teng Hou was his brother. The scenes of Teng Hou before his death flashed through his mind. Teng Hou had clearly been set up. He had often cursed Teng Hou for being brainless—and he truly was—but thinking about it now, he felt a chill.

Feeling this sword intent, so powerful it made all living things tremble, Jiang Chun tracked it all the way until, under the moonlight, he spotted a black shadow speeding along.

"Caiwei, do you like that Lu Huan?" Madame Xu gently stroked Ning Caiwei’s satin-like black hair, a single sentence that startled Ning Caiwei so much she nearly jumped off the bed.

To act violently at the slightest disagreement—that was Wang Nuo’s assessment of Dou Jiang. For the Central Bank, there was nothing to stop the exchange of dollars for RMB, even if that money wasn't intended for charity.
