Chapter 135: Supreme and Solitary, A Call to the Hearts of All Under Heaven
Chen Yang speculated that the Universe Ring had attached itself to his hand because it sensed his demonic energy. In the blink of an eye, the Golden Light Demon Empress found her true soul transported into a strange, silvery-white illusion. Beyond its medicinal uses, what Ye Feng loved most was the scent of the gardenias—clear, lingering, and refreshing to the senses. At the time, the Situ family never imagined Shen Chao would become as powerful as he was today, nor did they believe a man of humble origins could ever accumulate the means or capital to rival the great noble clans. Yet, upon learning of the mission, the two did not hesitate, nodding their agreement in unison.
"My lord, I will go handle the tails," she said, dropping back to block the path for the two of them. With that, he let out a hearty laugh, and together with Emery, who wore a matching sinister grin, they strode past them. Once the melody ended, most of the people had already gathered at the parade ground. Many of the Jin guards, having heard Sima Ji’s zither playing, felt a sense of malevolent dread washing over them. Seeing that the man was unwilling to say more, Qingxue nodded, sighing, "Poor Bi Kongchan, to have such brothers... compared to her, our Qing'er is much more fortunate."
"Order the army to speed up; I am going to Xuchang to join the Prince of Fanyang in this grand endeavor," Sima Jiong commanded aggressively to his guards outside the carriage, a display that caused the silent Sima Yi to frown slightly. "Great Elder, do not misunderstand. I heard from my brother that Lin Yue’s combat strength is far above his own. I’m not sure if it’s true, but I would certainly like to see it for myself," Mu Qianzhou said, his gaze lingering on the people from the Dan Domain.
The armor looked heavy, and the skeletal horse’s body was not much different from the warhorses of the human world. Whether it was a sudden spark of kindness or just a whim, since she was already here, she felt that leaving without doing something would only leave her with regrets. Though the three characters pinned onto the banner were crooked and rather unsightly, they were there nonetheless.
He did not know if this was love. She wanted to deny it, but every time the thought arose, it felt as if a string were tugging at her heart; the more she tried to let go, the more it hurt. In the Zija brothers' design, this device could reduce magic consumption by nearly half and counteract the suppression fields of magic dampeners. Upon hearing Hu Yue’s announcement—or rather, his order—Zang Yunwen and Elizabeth replied with a unified, impatient, and weary tone.
Yan Jing had no need for explanation and could continue directly from where Chi Xinian left off: "While your act of leading troops into the city is an excellent point of attack, wouldn't it be better to leave the impeachment to the subordinates?" To avoid disturbing others, Yan Poyue and Xiao Yunjie applied machine oil to the hinges of the dormitory door so that it wouldn't creak when opened.
"Wait." Lu Jue could ignore their eye contact, but there was one thing he could not let slide. He interrupted Zhou Yi’s words. Suddenly, countless black rays appeared around the Earth. The backdrop of space was already dark, yet they could see these black rays! They twisted and turned, constantly forming strange shapes. Back then, wherever I went, he followed, and after I found my uncle, he stayed by my side for over half a year.
"Eat one; you’re too thin," Li Xia said, looking at the hesitant Prince of Qin. She extended the candy box further, adding with a smile. The sudden farce turned into a robbery, a scene that even Chen Zhan found stunning; he subconsciously took a step back, taking in the entire spectacle. Well, after Liu Tian begged for mercy with his usual antics, the system said, "Get out! Don't bother me again until the world ends!" and kicked Liu Tian out of the system space. As for Banner... though he tried to mimic Nick Fury by wanting some fine dining, before he could even speak, Hulk’s suddenly enlarged right arm sent him flying with a single punch.
Cui Bin knew Mo Shang was no simple man, but he didn't press for details; anyone who couldn't be divined by the Six Lines of Heaven-Mending must have his own secrets. "Could I be hallucinating?" Liu Xuan muttered to himself in confusion, and just then, an ethereal voice rang out.
This was only before. Afterwards, having undergone the dragon blood transformation, his physical strength had risen by who knows how many tiers. Dealing with a few初阶 martial artists whose physical prowess was inferior to an average body-refiner was naturally effortless. She instinctively clenched her fists, her entire focus narrowing to her fingertips, yet she lacked the strength even to say the words "shameless."
"Sigh, it’s all my old man’s foolish idea. He is truly obsessed with the noble clans. He’s nothing but a nouveau riche, and I’m just the son of a nouveau riche, yet he insists on the Qian family ascending to the ranks of the nobility, claiming it's the only way to bring honor to our ancestors." When Li Juefeng grabbed her, she wailed and shrieked, but once the beating stopped, she became quiet and didn't seek comfort from anyone.
"Let us bless this lovely couple. Now, let us welcome our next performer," the host announced, stepping onto the stage at the right moment. She began to feel a lingering fear; her marriage to Li Juexi shouldn't have been ruined so easily... she would regret this for the rest of her life.
Lou Yi’s eyes were filled with remorse. Although it was true that they had been blocked by the enemy along the way, the fact remained that his own error had led to Qian Zihao’s demise, a reality he could not refute. After several days of celestial phenomena, the Mortal Domain returned to its usual prosperity. Compared to the other domains, it appeared ordinary, yet it concealed many wonders.
Duan Yirui was sobbing uncontrollably, and Yan Kuan was smoking in silence. Only Ye Feng looked at Wang Mu. Despite his iron-blooded expression, a unique brotherly sentiment lingered in his eyes, as if telling Wang Mu to leave without worry. Chang Gexing, by now, could clearly see the situation: this burly man had no intention of coveting his silver.
The moment the sound appeared, the entire world trembled. The filth within the blood swamp churned into monstrous waves, burying them under a deluge that reached ten thousand feet high, leaving them no chance to escape.
