Chapter 42

When he closed his eyes and looked inward once more, he found the sapling quietly residing in the sea of energy within his lower abdomen. Countless roots still plunged into the void, and with the slightest breath, immortal spiritual energy came surging toward him.

“Great Strength God-King, you dare betray the Great World-Honored One and seek refuge with the Heavenly Realm? Once the Great World-Honored One learns of this, he will crush you into dust and swallow you whole!” shrieked the demon god with a rooster’s head and phoenix’s tail.

Confronted with Tang Xiaoxuan’s expression, Shao Yitian did not feel that she was angry at all. Instead, he found her utterly adorable.

Eight sacred weapons revolved around Su Ying. Each was enveloped in a mass of milky-white energy, preventing its aura from escaping. Otherwise, even if the eight sacred weapons did not awaken, the aura radiating from them alone would be enough to crush the entire Invincible Peak into rubble.

All of Haoxiao Heaven was steeped in a solemn and majestic atmosphere. This layer of heaven was even vaster than Yuxu Heaven and Xuanming Heaven, as though it existed as an independent world.

Oh, come on~ Lion Wang, in terms of strength, you cannot even beat Second Little Sister. Do you really care that much about saving face? Are the girls from the Great Decadent Kingdom all this clueless?

However, Xian Cun was the first to launch a counterattack. He merely waved his hand and blocked Zhao Mingyu’s punch.

Yamamoto Yulang could wait no longer. He was practically itching to tear Liu Feng’s mouth apart! How infuriating! So, the moment Liu Feng had placed the wager, he immediately launched an attack.

It would be best to make this clear beforehand, lest everything come to nothing. Otherwise, Yang Jian could go on analyzing all he wanted and still fail to catch even the Emperor of Heaven’s shadow.

Although the Old Long-Tongued Ghost was formidable, with the Four Symbols Formation in place, finding the hemp rope easily was no simple matter.

“Is that so? Then all the better. I hate it when people come along just to disgust me!” Xia Xinnian gave a disdainful little snort.

“By the way, Chuchu, there is something I have always been curious about!” Luo Jinyu suddenly asked, prompted by a thought.

Gong Xie tried hard to press his lips into a straight line, yet the corners still curved upward, betraying his true emotions.

He wanted to see her face at once and hear her act coy beside his ear. If she did not feel like acting coy, then losing her temper would do just as well. He simply did not want a cold telephone between them. He wanted to hold her, kiss her, and make love to her.

Within their current system, the wills of the five True Gods of Heavenly Mandate were transmitted to the seven Lords of Heavenly Mandate, who then governed the hundreds of Heavenly Mandate Celestials beneath them. If all five of those wills belonged to the Bai Clan, would that not mean they had always been under the control of the Eternal Tree?

Ji Tingyan moved to sit on the other side. Fu Ting let out a soft sigh. He was not a man skilled at honeyed words, and when he saw that Ji Tingyan seemed displeased with him, he felt both stifled and helpless.

“Fortunately, I have nothing to do tomorrow afternoon. I’ll go home with you,” Ji Yueze suddenly said.

When Li Zhaodi saw Song Liancheng and the others, she was more at ease than the last time, having met them before. She smiled amiably at Xiao Han, seemingly oblivious to the hostility in her eyes.

Director Xiang Cong had once served under Gong Xie. The reason he had been able to take this position was that Gong Xie had judged his character and abilities worthy, and had given him considerable support and assistance.

“Keep it up, Young Master Xing,” Chen Qiang said, unable to suppress his laughter, as he reached out and patted Xing Yu on the shoulder.

Whenever Su Zhe thought of the Sect Master who trusted him taking the Divine Extraordinary Pill on his behalf, while all living beings were unable to advance even one step farther, his heart felt as though it were being cut by knives, the pain almost unbearable.

To preserve his life, the other party had even fed him an elixir capable of helping him break through to the Golden Immortal realm.

At those words, Qian Mo stamped hard on his foot. He had already lost count of how many times she had done so.

Jiang Fu immediately grew angry. As she approached, a bolt of lightning struck between her and Jiang Ruan Tang, missing them by the narrowest margin.

The man stopped the car and got out. A black mask covered half his face, but it could not conceal the viciousness in his eyes as he searched the surrounding area for something.

Whether or not to receive Chen Chuman, a disciple of the Tiankun Sect, was of little importance. What mattered was that it was obvious someone was deliberately targeting her. Since a potential enemy was lurking nearby, she could not afford to let down her guard.

After soaking for nearly half a day, Gu Xiao finally leaped out. He did not want to remain there any longer. If he happened to run into Tian Ruonao again, he feared he would only end up beaten once more.

“You few are outsiders, are you not?” Zhu Zheng asked directly. Judging by their clothing and appearance, he was clearly somewhat puzzled.

Mu Qinghan narrowed her eyes slightly but did not question him further. Once she had finished administering the needles, she gave a slight cupping of her hands and vanished into the night.

Her entire body plunged into the water. On the rippling surface, two bodyguards stood beside the pool, watching her coldly.

When her master’s palm failed to descend, Illusory Beauty was overjoyed. She hurried over, knelt before her, and repeatedly begged for mercy.

Ling Zihuan’s manner of speaking, rising first and then abruptly falling, left the tall, thin man speechless. Among all these people, he had still intended to stand up for Wan Zongren, but seeing Ling Zihuan like this made his heart tremble, and he no longer dared to act.

“You have never seen her? I mean the Empress. If you had taken a look, surely you would not have remained unwell for all these years, would you?” Chu Yunlian was also very puzzled. She had not even been born more than twenty years ago and knew nothing about these matters.

Luo Jun thought of Aunt Fang’s smile just now. Following behind Jun Ying, she walked to the sofa and sat down, naturally slipping an arm around Jun Ying’s waist as she breathed in the faint fragrance clinging to her.

Yet just as he was about to despair, he thought of his maternal granduncle. At the time, his granduncle had drawn a test tube of blood from him, which clearly indicated some special purpose.

After Xuan Mo said this, every one of the “evil deeds” committed since the Five Elemental Ones appeared in the courtyard up until they stopped was listed one by one.

Zhaoxi was slightly stunned. She found Shang Jue’s concern extremely strange, yet the depth in his eyes touched her. He cared nothing for what others said, but whenever she spoke of herself, he cared. Did he truly care so much that even an ominous remark could not be uttered?

“Monk, Yanyan has nothing to do with the treasure map. What use could you possibly have for her?” The speaker was Xin Wu.

“Not only will the Shu Kingdom need no secondary consorts this time; even after he returns to Yanjing and inherits the throne, there will be no other concubines in Shang Jue’s palace.” Shang Jue paid no attention to Feng Qin’s words and simply continued to explain his intentions.

Although the man’s tone had become somewhat calmer, that single sentence still frightened Xuan Mo badly.
