Chapter 107: Trial Opening! The Restaurant Is Booming
That remark may have been addressed to Ruan Shuyu, but it was no less aimed at Jiang Dahao. A wicked curve touched the corner of Jiang Dahao’s mouth, and he gave a silent shake of his head.
“The old man would never kill his own son. Besides, there’s no evidence. The Eighth Master’s faction won’t yield so easily. If the old man has no justification, he’ll probably only seize the chance to suppress the Eighth Master,” Su Li said with a trace of disdain. This was the old man’s habitual method, after all. It remained to be seen whether the old eighth was tough enough.
At that, the three of them realized that someone must have an enmity with the Underworld Lord’s estate, and from the look of things, that someone was no weakling. But what mattered most was the power of the formation; it had left them no spare time to deal with Ye Feng.
Pasanit gave a heavy snort through his nose, then strode forward. With every step, his footfalls rang out sharply on the ground, thudding against people’s hearts. Those ahead could not help but retreat, afraid of blocking his way and being casually hurled aside.
In less than half a minute, he had defeated three men in succession. The next match became a one-on-one contest between Jiang Dahao and Daoben.
“Hmph, what of it? With my mighty divine power supporting you, anything is possible!” Gaia’s voice sounded again in Yu Wuming’s mind.
Because the Antler Stag could cast people into illusions, this forest was called the Forest of Delusion. Unfortunately, for Gu Ye and Jie’er, this forest was not nearly so frightening. Why was that?
“Tch!” Su Li slapped the old man outright. It was obvious now that these overbright minds, when faced with fools, thought far too much.
“So it was you.” Lu San moved his arm away from Cheng Feng’s shoulder and turned to look at the two of them.
Long Tian believed he would never abandon Zhi Ling. If the two of them ended up not together in the end, it would only be because of Zhi Ling.
Cold sweat broke out along my back. After thinking it over, I nodded. “I didn’t think that much. The moment I saw the text, I was completely stunned.” As soon as I finished speaking, I casually deleted the message.
That wait stretched on for more than half a year. At first, Old Qiu adapted fairly well, but as the days went by, waking up every day to find it already deep midnight could hardly be anything but lonely. Yet the factory building did not even have a television set. Bored stiff and feeling trapped, Old Qiu could only occasionally scribble a few things on paper to pass the time.
Black Rock, too, was at a loss for how to proceed. If the person had been on the fifteenth floor, he could simply activate the Abyssal Hub, but this clearly was not the fifteenth floor. Even if he activated it, it probably would not work.
Hearing the praise, it felt as though my heart had been wrapped in honey. In a soft, spoiled voice, I said, “If it tastes good, then you should eat more. I stewed it for a whole day.” After a pause, I smiled and added, “You should eat too.” Worried it still would not be enough, I added another large chicken wing to his bowl.
At such a great distance, it would not be easy for the Spirit-Wood Temple or Green Cloud Peak to find him again.
Zhao Yuanrong immediately pouted. A son is important too, all right? Don’t act as if you don’t want to say a word. For this period of time, they would have to rely on him to keep an eye on the uncle, wouldn’t they?
Since the engagement, the two of them had rarely met. Before the wedding, it had already been nearly a month since they last had any contact. A-Xing, somewhat bashful, asked, “Are you tired?” Hezhuo shook his head and smiled. “Not tired once I see you.” Slowly, he wrapped his arms around her shoulders from behind. A-Xing trembled, her heart leaping to her throat with a loud thud.
The man sat beneath the waterfall, a seven-stringed zither placed before him. His graceful hands rested upon the instrument, and his black hair cascaded behind him like flowing water. His head was turned slightly, and his face could not be seen.
He stared at this garden he had never before set foot in, utterly lost and at a loss. Su Peisheng followed at his side with a lantern. Seeing that the Fourth Master’s face was colorless and his lips were pressed down, how could he dare say a word? He lowered his head, staring at his toes, and pricked up his ears to await orders.
When Qiao Feng and Qiao Suhan saw that their father was truly furious, they hurried forward, each taking one of Qiao Yue’s hands, soothing her in low voices and coaxing her away.
In the end, the Devouring Sea Whale had gained the upper hand. Relying on the advantage of fighting at home, it suppressed Xu Zhe and once again lashed him brutally with its tail, striking him down to the seabed.
When Xu Zhe arrived at Blackwater Lake, he could not help frowning. He had the strange sense of being pricked in the back by needles, as though someone were watching him.
“All right. If you have money and want to buy a new one, I won’t object,” Tantai Mingyue said with a happy smile. So long as it did not involve the affairs of the clan, she was always bright with laughter.
Liang Dong was secretly guessing at the origin of the treasure. In his view, that had to be it. One had to admire that senior; his skill in artifact refinement was truly beyond words, and his ideas were bold as well.
Without greeting Cao Yu and the others, Xu Zhe quietly left Black Stone Academy. He did not want his companions to worry about him, and even less did he want them to take risks alongside him.
In that brief span, Ren Sha was far from having an easy time. Instinct told him that danger had not gone away. In other words, Pursuing Soul had not left yet.
“Li Haonan, you hit me just now! I don’t want you anymore!” Gu Xiaobei muttered as she pushed at him, even taking the chance to bite his tongue once.
“Brother Zijun, are you really not going to regret it?” Gu Xiaobei looked at He Zijun and asked word by word.
Including Xu Zhe, everyone else was stunned. That machine beast, which had been so menacing moments ago, had actually gone completely dead in an instant? In such a ruined state, if that was not paralysis, what was it?
But he did not turn serious and tense. Instead, his face lit up with joy as he raised his fair, slender right hand, pointing excitedly at the glittering object that was partly hidden beneath the other cultivation resources.
Han Yu walked behind her, several times seeming about to say something, but in the end he silently returned to the judges’ seats and took his leave of the school’s leaders.
“Prince, relations between nations are not something that can be settled with a single promise. Your assurance means nothing to us,” Zhou Yang said.
Thus, this also meant that if she truly could obtain the inheritances of those ten immortal beasts, it would be of immense benefit to her, and she would even have a future bright enough to stand alongside the compass.
Moreover, the fact that he could wound him so easily was proof enough that the opponent was a cultivator like himself.
