Their brains began to scream, roaring and desperately trying to make them flee. But they no longer had any chance.

Lin Yongming did not dare to interrupt and could only secretly wipe away cold sweat on the side, finding that the Blue Silver Emperor really loved to tease Bibi Dong.

Yun Ling also stepped forward to lend a hand, while only Fu Chengxu and Wei Guoqing stood to the side, looking extremely constrained and nervous.

"Didn't Big Brother say he would be right back? How come you've been gone for a full ten years?" Liu Shang asked with a mix of excitement and worry on his face.

Zhou Dezhou began searching for the key. After searching around for a long time, he finally discovered a wall. Behind the wall, he found the key.

"Enter!" Regarding this, Ye Xixi had given it thought: anyone who did not enter the door was problematic, and under no circumstances would the door be opened.

"Alright, go take a bath first, and I'll give it to you after you're done." Fang Luo glanced at her filthy appearance, then looked at the crying baby in her arms.

"Fellow Daoist, you have the nerve to tell me that five thousand mid-grade spirit stones is an honest price? Or do you take me for a fool?"

The massive tripod flew backward, slamming fiercely into the two elders, instantly reducing the two caught-off-guard Great Saints into mists of blood.

And Wen Huanzhang's reply was also quite interesting; he only wrote a single paragraph to Xiao Jiasui: "Lofty are the mountains, winding the deep valleys. Lush is the purple zhi, which can cure hunger. The eras of Tang and Yu are distant, to where shall I return? High-topped carriages and grand canopies—their sorrows are profound. The dread of wealth and nobility among men is not as good as the unbridled will of poverty and humbleness."

Feigning ignorance of the chill in his eyes, she walked up to him with a serious expression, her slender, white jade fingers naturally wrapping around his wrist.

In an instant, Xiao Yunu's delicate brows furrowed tightly, and then, with a wail, she burst into tears again.

For some reason, the frown between his brows seemed to relax slightly. Just as he was about to put down his phone, another text message came through.

With that, she opened the bamboo basket in her hand, took out a steaming bowl of lotus seed soup, and respectfully handed it up.

Xie Qian's heart missed a beat. His gaze was deep, mixed with ambiguity, and his prominent Adam's apple slid down with a very noticeable arc.

Beneath this sturdy defensive fortification, there must also be an even more massive underground transportation network, thus forming a perfect complement to the city interior.

"Experience it with your heart!" A satisfied smile tugged at the corner of Daoist Xuanqing's mouth as he slowly retreated to the side, making a 'hush' gesture.

A split second later, he abruptly opened his eyes, but his pupils had turned into double pupils, and an extremely bizarre power surged toward the Flayer King.

The turbulent energy exploded in massive quantities, yet it could combine with such precise cohesion—water melting into blood, two paths becoming three, weaving together into a single garment, converging amidst the stern, howling rain.

Back at the hotel, I was using my phone to search Baidu for the teleportation technique the master mentioned, but I only found some magic tricks, failing to find any truly useful information or even a reliable definition.

"Yes, Master. The servants of the Ling family's East Manor have been waiting for a long time, saying that the young master of the Ling family is waiting for you outside the main peak's gate!" Zhuzi replied. At the same time, a youth stepped out from behind him; he also seemed to have some cultivation, with a fair complexion and an obedient demeanor.

After a long silence from behind, a voice spoke again: "Offense taken, we are leaving right now." Then came the sound of retreating footsteps. They were truly leaving in a rush—to be precise, fleeing in panic.

Hearing this, Qin Haos expression sank completely, while the Fifth Elder looked at Qin Hao, coughed awkwardly, and found himself unable to say anything.

"Moonken Lake is a sacred site of Mount Qingcheng. Have you asked for Mount Qingcheng's opinion by turning Moonken Lake into this state? Besides, only vulgar people would like such things." I asked quietly, then waved my hand, and with the manifestation of true qi, Moonken Lake instantly restored to its original state.

Ding Ming had long harbored this thought and naturally agreed readily. Each of them drew their magical swords and was about to head to the open space ahead when they heard Dongyue's voice coming from within the sleeping palace.

Chen Yingying glanced at me, consulting my opinion. I also stood up and went outside, with Chen Yingying following me to the edge of Zhangren Peak. Chunyangzi looked down at the rippling, moonlit Moonken Lake, pressed his fingers together, and swirled them in a teacup.

The boys sitting in the classroom all wore looks of despair upon seeing this. Many of them shot threatening glares directly at Ye Tianci, yet they didn't dare to step forward. After all, the story of Ye Tianci going toe-to-toe with the drill instructor during military training had long since spread throughout the school.

I knelt on the ground once more, kowtowing a few times to the old Daoist priest to thank him for saving my life and offering his guidance. The old Daoist showed a rare smile and then began to speak of the incident involving these seven evil ghosts.

Wu Yangxin was not particularly familiar with the terrain of Leshi, so she had no idea where she was currently located after those dozen minutes of driving.

Su Yingmei did not know why, despite enjoying the treatment of a lofty master inside this seaside villa, such a simple matter had no one to help her accomplish it. Perhaps, pouring her heart out to someone would be a good thing after all. At least, Su Yingmei regarded Butler Wang as someone she could actually talk to.

Leng Mochen gently sucked on my lips, parting my pearly white teeth, and his tenacious tongue probed into my mouth, tangling tightly with mine. Actually, I wanted to push him away, but for some reason, I didn't have an ounce of strength in my body.

Hua Qian looked over the data and then said to Lü Haotian. This was indeed a very shocking piece of news. Previously, Lü Haotian hadn't even finished reading to the bottom before Bai Yixue came in and disrupted things. At this moment, hearing Hua Qian mention it, he snatched it over to see for himself.

Yuan Shikai was different, however. Looking back at Yuan Shikai, this man would not be an ordinary figure in days to come. You must not be fooled by his current facade of absolute subservience; when the time is ripe, he is not one to remain subordinate to others.
