Chapter 154 The Foundation of the State
"Please wait a moment!" Suddenly, Yu Yichen called out to his father. His departing father turned around and cast a somewhat curious glance at him.
Xuanyuan Lishuang panted for a long time, wishing she could inhale all the air left in her lifetime before slowly coming to a halt.
Xuanyuan Yi's current concern felt supremely sweet to her. She trailed behind Xuanyuan Yi, though her behavior made him feel unaccustomed.
After taking a massive detour, Master Bao's reasoning ultimately boiled down to a simple point: the sword in Xiong Ti's hand carried an overwhelmingly fierce murderous aura and inflicted considerable damage on his meridians. Therefore, to prevent such harm, there was only one possible method.
"What about you people? Have you decided?" Ye Feng's gaze swept over Dragon Demon, Grim Reaper, Dark God, Qatar, and Lei Heng.
However, just as the sharp tip of the sword was about to slice open that fragile neck, a dazzling white battle aura barrier suddenly materialized a mere two centimeters away. With a crisp, metallic clank, it blocked the otherwise fatal strike.
Although he had suffered the heartbreak of unrequited love, he had come to love Ji Anchen, and because of that love, he had risked his life to save her once. That could be considered a fortunate blessing amidst misfortune.
"Is your foot injured?" He asked the question only to realize moments later that it was entirely redundant, as he caught no scent of blood. Was this simply a natural reflex of the body?
"Why? Why must you always direct me to do this and that?" She immediately retorted in a sharp counterattack, refusing to yield an inch.
With a flick of his mind, Mu Ling summoned the Ice God Staff into his grasp. In the next instant, his figure slowly vanished from the spot. Amidst a subtle shift in Zhu Long's expression, a fierce staff strike came crashing down toward the latter's head.
"Escaping the Heavens and Earth!" Utilizing the Grand Escape technique, Yang Fan broke free from the midst of the flames, then summoned the Supreme Sword Graveyard. Four great flying swords soared forth, instantly combining into a single gigantic sword. The might of these four battle swords was terrifying indeed; piercing through the firmament, they viciously thrust toward that uncanny, eerie eye.
Allowing the Oracion Seis to carry out this matter meant that, no matter how that unformed consciousness might blame them, the responsibility could never fall back onto him.
"As far as I know, there should still be other people inside the Tower of Heaven, right?" Arthur picked up another chess piece representing Juvia, placing it beside Lucy so they could face 'The Falcon' together.
The man's voice gradually turned ice-cold as he drew his longsword from its scabbard. A biting intent to kill locked firmly onto Ye Yang.
Nestled in Tokyo, the IS Academy did not belong to any single nation. It was an independent entity in its own right, existing outside of all countries while enjoying equal sovereignty with them.
Winter Mallow waited for a long time without hearing him speak, so she quietly lifted her gaze to peek at him. Seeing his hesitant expression, as if he had more to say yet held back, she let out a cold laugh in her heart.
The terrifying might of the explosion directly blasted a massive crater nearly a hundred meters wide and forty to fifty meters deep into the ground. Along the rim of the pit, countless thick fissures sprawled outward in all directions like a giant spiderweb.
At this very moment, she possessed an ultimate purity, especially with that expression full of expectation. The unintentional, captivating allure she exuded made one's heart skip a beat.
Traveling alone across the desert was by no means a pleasant experience for body and mind, though fortunately, this stretch of the journey was not exceedingly long. Before the sky darkened completely, Shen Hao could already vaguely make out the distant, war-torn city of Bogna.
In reality, Yu Mei's guess was not far off the mark; the lower half of her body had indeed been blasted to pieces. It was just that during the period of her unconsciousness, her body had unconsciously absorbed vital essence, which, coupled with the red jade absorbing the essence of the sun and moon and transferring it to Yu Mei, had nourished and restored her.
Something unknown and writhing crawled up her snow-white wrist. Perhaps her nerves had been strung too tightly, as Jiao'er felt absolutely nothing.
Mother Bai sat right beside Father Bai. She secretly pinched Father Bai's waist; Bai Shiwu was good in every aspect except for one flaw—he was utterly reluctant to part with his money.
Accompanied by the sonic boom of the impact, Su Zhan retreated five or six steps before steadying his figure, his palm trembling slightly. Meanwhile, Li Lee stood firmly in place, holding his sword in his left hand while keeping his right hand shaped into a fist, completely motionless.
That profound pair of eyes held clear disapproval. Meng Yufuan's body trembled slightly; she knew that Qin Jing'an was warning her not to act rashly.
"God Gu, the head teacher is calling you!" The mathematics class representative returned from the office and immediately called out to Gu Nian upon stepping into the classroom.
Yu Mei launched into a nonstop chatterbox mode, recounting Wang Yumei's misadventures and babbling on about Xu Mingkun's entire family.
That cyan sword seemed to understand Su Zhan's words, vibrating as cyan light rippled across its body and countless illusory sword projections shot forth, hovering above the stone platform.
"This time, it is truly foolproof." Purple light pulsed across Nuo Xuchen's limbs, and the aura emanating from them was spine-chilling. It felt as though those four limbs were four towering pillars supporting the heavens, majestic and unyielding, making it impossible for anyone to harbor any intention of resistance.
The Su family welcomed an uninvited guest—none other than Zou Shuang'er, who had been galloping on horseback through the streets just moments ago. Without even brushing off the dust of her journey, she had rushed right over, determined to see precisely who it was.
Three years ago, it was these very cultivators who had secretly assisted the Huang family, enabling them to ruthlessly swallow up other factions and slaughter their way across Cangxi with brutal force to become its undisputed overlord.
Because sometimes such coincidences simply happen in this world, and of all things, human hearts are always the most fickle.
Although Xing'an League was a city, it was not particularly large. Driving into Xing'an League, Jing Tianjiao found what appeared to be the finest hotel in the area and parked the vehicle at the entrance. He handed some cash to Lu Feng, telling him that if a guide was needed later, he would call him again.
Could it be that there was something on his person attracting it? Suddenly, he thought of the dozen or so meat buns tucked inside his pack.
"Understood!" The members of Team Dream chorused in unison, no longer raising any objections regarding the 'Corki' denying minions.
"Why did you save me?" After walking a distance in their company, Ming couldn't help but ask.
"I'll do it!" Aitangtang yelled out, rushing forward to kick the bloody hand directly. Under the impact of her kick, the bloody hand instantly dissolved into a pool of gore, merging into the blood beneath our feet.
Like a tireless black ape, it swung both fists and pounded relentlessly against the jade-white arm before it.
"Mr. Lu, please don't misunderstand. You aren't married, not even engaged; Muyao still retains the freedom to make her own choices." Regardless of the circumstances, Zhu Zuofan always maintained his polished manners, constantly showcasing his aristocratic air.
"As it happens, I am also somewhat versed in the sword dao and would like to ask young master for some pointers." The cultivator smiled.
Following a brief yet fierce battle, Ming Yi and Xue Sha Wuji both sustained injuries. Notably, because of Ming Yi's reckless attacks that disregarded his own life, Xue Sha Wuji was also heavily wounded, yet at this moment, a smile crept onto his face.
