Chapter 60: Making a Move

No one expected Su Tian and the elderly man in black to suddenly resort to violence, least of all the company executives, who had never witnessed such a scene before. As soon as the two began to fight, they scrambled to their feet and huddled in the corner. Initially, some of those onlookers felt that it was somewhat unsportsmanlike of Su Tian to trade blows with an elderly man. After all, the man in black looked to be in his sixties or seventies, whereas Su Tian was in the prime of his youth; attacking an elderly man was simply too...

The yellow-robed male cultivator's spear strike contained profound mysteries. Although it was merely a thrust into the empty air toward Pei Peixiang, accompanied by subtle spatial ripples, the tip of the spear suddenly materialized right in front of her. It was aimed directly at her vital heart aperture, the very lifeline of a cultivator's physical body.

Before the deputy general could figure out what Liu Fufeng intended to do, he watched him mount his horse directly and leave in a hurry, throwing back only a single sentence: "I will return after the New Year."

Gu Jin remained silent, but Fu Chenzhou had already guessed that these words were likely spoken by Fu Ci. After all, Ruan Ruoyan was a devout follower of the Gu Jinism doctrine; no matter what, Gu Jin was always in the right.

Ma Chao knew very well that if he took another step forward, Bai Chuan's massive army behind him would charge forward without a moment's hesitation.

General Fusang lowered his voice at the very end, yet Princess Jizi still overheard him. She clenched her fists tightly, but after a long while, she turned and returned to the carriage.

Imperial Physician Zhang's family was not well-to-do. While they could not be considered truly destitute commoners, they possessed very little family wealth. Prior to entering the Imperial Hospital, his expenditures frequently exceeded his income.

Xun You was well aware of Xun Yu's temperament. To make a man of such character accept the reality that Cao Cao had already crowned himself a vassal king of a different surname was truly a formidable challenge.

Besides, his plans had been repeatedly dismantled, driven into crushing retreat by Yan Yunxiao's swift and decisive methods. These past few days had been utterly disastrous for him, let alone having Shen Yu delivered straight to his doorstep.

She intended to muddy the waters completely. With such chaotic rumors flying about, and given that the appearances of Xue Xi and Zhang Lihua had once surfaced among cultivators alongside one of the Seven Serpents, how could it fail to provoke suspicion and doubt?

A hand, stained with thick mud and covered in calluses, extended three fingers, looking not the least bit like a joke.

Following Bu Jiomeng straight toward the principal's office in the administrative building, Qin Yu finally learned from the other party's lips exactly what had happened at the school.

"Splendid!" Upon hearing Xuan Chen's words, Qingxuan hastily put on an expression of deep gratitude. The five of them vanished once more from outside the Ghost Howl Valley, reappeared in that secluded mountain hollow, concealed their auras, and adjusted their physical conditions.

The surrounding onlookers, upon witnessing this sight, could not help but swallow hard before withdrawing their gazes, not daring to look at Qin Yu any longer.

Hearing the name of the Silver-Tailed Scorpion, the other guards' expressions twitched involuntarily. The man stared at Ye, seemingly convinced that Ye was simply making alarmist remarks.

"Friendship first, competition second"—that was purely a deception. Which competitor did not yearn for victory? Defeat ultimately belonged only to the losers.

Enduring the agonizing pain splitting his head, Xing Ming rolled off the bed, switched on the room's lights, and staggered toward the medical diagnostic machine. After confirming the biometric scan, he closed his eyes and waited.

Tianye took a careful look and realized that Li Baishi was not in a spiritual state, but rather a creature of flesh and blood. No wonder his first impression had been one of ethereal, immortal grace.

All the surrounding white mist surged toward this spot under the pull of that suction force. Previously, due to the exertion of battle, Ye's body had still retained a trace of warmth against the freezing cold of the mist.

Right after the giant dragon dissipated, the massive mountain materialized by spiritual energy descended from above, pinning Xiao Yu firmly to the ground. This instantly stripped Xiao Yu of all offensive and mobility capabilities, and the outcome was decided at that very moment.

Sometimes, discovering even a novel combination of elements is enough to serve as a supreme treasure for defeating an enemy. After all, who could possibly predict that such simple things could possess such terrifying power?
