Chapter 105: Deceiving Oneself
The Hall of Ten Thousand Immortals and the Demon Emperor’s Hall had fought for many years, and in terms of accumulated strength, the Hall of Ten Thousand Immortals was still far more formidable. This time, the elite forces of the Demon Emperor’s Hall had been sent out.
All the core experts of the Hall of Ten Thousand Immortals had arrived, and with the Divine Emperor’s Hall united as one, Jing Xuanwei immediately realized she could not outfight them.
At once, she put on a smile and began to ingratiate herself with Hua Tingyun.
“Nie Tingyun, if there’s anything you want, just tell me...”
The deep purple bite mark left Xia Liangcha speechless. He had never expected his bite to be so strong; after several days, the mark still had not faded.
“Maybe,” Ye Xiao said indifferently, neither denying nor admitting it. Who knew whether killing was forbidden in Beast-Hunting City? Even if it was, so what?
Aside from blasting him far away, it caused him no harm at all. A hint of amusement appeared in Sun Shengli’s eyes as he looked at the fellow. Sheng Gaoda, seeing Sun Shengli completely unharmed, wore a look of confusion.
Far away, in the center of Glory City, a brightly dressed, coquettish female streamer was filming the meteor shower with a camera.
Yu Li also briefly introduced the Jade Cup, and Chen Xuzi clicked his tongue in wonder. Bai Qing did not interrupt; it was no bad thing to let the newly met artifact spirits speak with one another.
Li Wei was instantly filled with rage. He looked at Li San in utter disbelief. He had lost all face this time. Water carts were illegal vehicles to begin with, and not only had he failed to uncover the matter, he had instead been used by Li San like a fool.
Seeing this, everyone’s expressions became wonderfully animated, each one craning their necks in eager anticipation, waiting to see Ye Kai make a fool of himself.
At the sound of it, Li Sanqi did not think much further. Assuming Ye Kai truly wanted to discuss something important with Sun Li, he gave Ye Kai a simple, honest smile and then turned to leave.
For Bai Qing, of course saving his father was the most important thing. Fortunately, the injury had not yet damaged the source of his power, and only rest was needed. Thus, the matter of the Primordial Realm’s advancement remained ever in his thoughts.
But there was nothing to be done. Because of Mu Tianhong’s status, Mu Wanqing and Zhao Ji did not dare voice even the slightest dissatisfaction.
In the end, his father and mother still followed the four black-clad men, leaving Lan and Bai alone at home.
Jiang Han and the others could only watch helplessly as the giant blade, broad as a door panel, slammed fiercely toward the Earthfire Essence in midair.
“Trash!” The man gripping his throat casually hurled him aside, tossing him away like garbage, too lazy to spare him even another glance.
Though the matter ended like this, the people of the Earth Demon Kingdom were still effectively placed under house arrest by Dao Qingshan under the pretext of ensuring safety and avoiding conflict; they were not allowed to step beyond the courtyard. Ye Yang increasingly felt that something was wrong, but at present he was powerless to do anything.
“Brother Shentu...” Qing’er’s body could not help trembling, and mist rose in her eyes. He understood what it meant for Shentu Chong to say such a thing. The Pei family aside, what about the Ao family? That was a super clan, with an unknown number of Heaven Venerable experts, and Shentu Chong was one of the ten disciples of Dragon-Phoenix Valley. Was that not sheer suicide?
Whatever the case, Jingjing was a divine beast. Fighting enemies and the like ought to be easy for her, so even if her cultivation was still weaker than his, he could not afford the slightest carelessness.
A faint smile curved Jiang Xie’s lips. As long as he knew the other side’s pattern of attack, things became simple. There would always be a way to deal with it; any supposedly invincible move was nothing more than bragging, not worth taking too seriously.
Unlike the three of them, who drank and revelled freely, Yanyun City was now within Yan Yun’s body as though seas and rivers were overturning. His blood essence transformed into battle-hardened soldiers and generals, charging and galloping through his meridians. At the very front of these elite troops, a military seal shone brilliantly.
After all, no matter how strong a person was, could they be stronger than ferocious beasts? Even Mr. Ye had a feeling of helplessness before such beasts; the gap in dimensions was simply too vast.
In a daze, Jiang Han seemed to have returned to the campus of Earth, and saw the school belle in her uniform.
