Chapter 54: An Accident (Part XIV)
Although there is still the family inspection stage ahead, under normal circumstances, that is merely a formality, and it is truly rare to hear of anyone being rejected during this process.
That fellow Golden Tripod is constantly communicating with Yue Chen over at the Ancient Imperial City, which is extremely dangerous for Ling Xiao.
And the "Qian Family," as the name implies, possesses wealth that can reach the divine, controlling numerous resource regions and primordial crystal mines.
"I have so many houses under my name that I couldn't possibly stay in a different one every single day even if I tried," Zhang Bo said with a sidelong glance, radiating extreme pride.
Consequently, several more individuals whose comments were inappropriate had their chat privileges revoked by the advanced black-list moderator, Future. This finally brought a sense of harmony to the live stream's bullet comments, or at least Wei Yao felt that her nameless moderator had quite a competent grip on managing the broadcast room.
"Run!" The dwarfish man knew that in a direct confrontation, a hundred of him wouldn't be enough to deal with that monster.
However, it was not her true self that had emerged this time, but rather the work of the live holographic projection system, which recreated her appearance from the previous encounter. Many viewers currently watching the stream who had lived through that prior event were instantly reminded of that brush with life-and-death peril.
With boundless energy left unreleased, Lin Feng had no choice but to pour it all into his work, and as it happened, the company had plenty of matters to deal with during this period.
"Boom, boom, boom—crack." With a heaven-shattering roar, an immortal dragon's cry that pierced through metal and stone and transcended the primordial ages burst forth.
Leng Ning, however, suddenly thought of a question: since her older brother was aware of the situation, why didn't he save Leng Shuang?
The former Number One appeared directly above the center of the Imperial Capital. He had already sensed that the elder of the Lin family was heading straight over. Furthermore, the elder of the Li family was also approaching, and from other directions, lights were continually flashing toward this location as people kept arriving, all of which signaled the extreme severity of the situation.
Shortly after, traditional doctor Xu prescribed a few batches of miscarriage-prevention herbs. One sister-in-law accompanied him to get the medicine, while Madam Lu offered a few more words of comfort to Liu Yincheng before leaving alongside Li Yuejie.
Within the silent and dim space, a series of heavy breathing sounds echoed one after another. Here, there was no blowing wind, no biting cold of snow, and everything appeared utterly tranquil.
Only then was Zhuang Yuning certain that it was all over, and she cast an envious glance at Ye Shaoyang: this was the first time she had truly witnessed him performing Daoist rituals, and from start to finish, it could be described in just two words: dashing.
Previously, she had believed that concepts of internal energy were all lies, as there were simply too many martial arts charlatans using inner force to deceive people. Yet after encountering Moke, she discovered that internal energy might not be false after all. If things passed down by the ancestors over countless years were truly fake, they could never have endured until the present day.
Although her encounters with these people could only be described as a chance meeting, Guo Jie and Ruixue had at least left Wu Ling with a favorable impression.
The array inscriptions continuously shattered, and various destructive forces erupted around Zhang Ruechen.
To surpass the Xiantian realm—wasn't that comparable to the guardian deities by the side of Chief Number One? With such terrifying strength achievable in less than ten years, just how frightening was Ziyi's talent?
Qian Mosang was shocked beyond measure, never expecting that with his cultivation of five yuanhui, a single clash with Xuan Yi would result in instant defeat.
"Alright," Ye Tianchen nodded. With his strength, finding a cultivation chamber within the middle ten tiers was not a difficult task at all.
Lin Feiyang immediately looked down at the flight attendant, only to see her foaming at the mouth with her beautiful face turned blue-purple, obviously having died from poison ingestion.
However, this suited his wishes perfectly. Originally, he had been worried about having no way to locate Mu Tianyi and the others, but now that problem was completely nonexistent.
With an air of supreme detachment, she truly looked down upon Ling Yu. What did Ling Yu have right now? Even if he had some money, it still differed vastly from the Qian family and was simply not in the same league.
Though Mount Baiyun received numerous tourists every day, there were no heavy industries or factories nearby, so the presence of spiritual energy on the mountain was hardly surprising.
Everyone looked at Chen Xiang with strange expressions, making him feel thoroughly uncomfortable. "Damn it, what are you looking at me for?" Before his voice even faded, everyone shifted their gaze to Su Jialiang, making the latter equally awkward.
Among the top three master alchemists across the three great academies, she occupied a relatively neutral stance, maintaining good relationships with both Hai Qing and Liu Ruofeng.
The jade pendant above her head shattered, and an overwhelming aura of an immortal immediately descended. Her legs instantly felt as though they were sinking into a swamp, robbing her of even the strength to take a step forward.
I walked closer and saw a rotting corpse lying inside a pit over a meter deep.
Zhu Yuan wore round dark sunglasses perched on the bridge of her nose to conceal her weary fatigue, but the curve of her lips as she greeted everyone showed that her mood was quite pleasant, bright and clear just like the weather today.
He couldn't help rubbing her face with his knuckles. Even in her sleep, she would instinctively flinch at the touch, instantly drawing a wave of heartache from him.
During dinner, Qin Sheng mentioned that she would be taking a trip to Jiangcheng in a few days. Shen Chuyan lifted his eyelids to glance at her, knowing full well in his heart that she must have found out about her grandmother.
Lu Ming smiled and tapped the big guy on the shoulder. Even though he was smiling, even Old Liu could sense a bone-chilling coldness.
When she finally snapped out of her daze, she panicked, instinctively reaching her right hand across the table, only to have it intercepted and firmly grasped in his palm.
After a thorough inspection, however, apart from discovering some strange stone powder, no mineral deposits were found whatsoever.
Walking over with a look of astonishment alongside Jiang Zhenzhen, she stared at her reflection in the mirror, looking breathtakingly and peerlessly beautiful.
Yet when evening dinner arrived, as Liu Mo'ang was preparing to share a couple of drinks with his uncle, he accidentally noticed that Zhang Jie's left ring finger was adorned with a diamond ring set with a massive blue sapphire. He clearly remembered that when the couple left in the morning, Zhang Jie's left hand had worn no such striking ring.
This was in complete contrast to her former personality; had it been the old her, she would have long since strutted out to flaunt it.
Continuing to cast bait in an attempt to lure the adorable fish into biting, Mu Yun's mind raced with petty and despicable schemes, plotting to muddle Sang Li's thoughts so as to achieve his own ulterior motives.
"The opponent is the Great Tang Empire, after all. What can I do? Who asked me to be lacking in ability..." Lei Wu said with a desolate expression.
Didn't she know that she hated being touched by others the most? Even grabbing the hem of her clothes was forbidden. Looking at those delicate, smooth fingers, Sang Li felt a sudden urge to hack them off with a blade.
