Jaken Joins the Group

Furthermore, considering the expectations of the higher-ups of the Sky Cloud Sect, as well as Jian Nanxing, Lu Renjia, Lin Xian'er, Zhuo Xinran, his master, and Murong Xue, Nie Tian was resolved to claim the first place.

On the battlefield, quite a few people had already been crushed to death by drumbeats and thus eliminated, making the strength of the predators even more terrifying.

"The Azure Roc has already been slain by me!" Phantom stated this fact calmly, without hiding it from Hua Aijiao.

Because their current situation was far from ideal, they had to redouble their efforts and concentrate entirely on what needed to be done; otherwise, they would remain at a perpetual disadvantage.

"How is it? We haven't mistreated your people, have we? Look at how enthusiastically they are working," He Zhenzhong said with a slight smile, directing his remark to those fellows.

No one said anything; they merely nodded. In the blink of an eye, only Earth Soul remained, while everyone else had departed, including Corpse Dog and Swallower of Thieves. Silence descended instantly.

Following that, we had something to eat and then set out to look for lodging. There were no luxurious hotels nearby, but there was a designated residential area filled with simple, rustic village inns. It gave one a refreshing and heartwarming feeling, forming a beautiful and unpretentious scenic line amidst the bustling district.

Suddenly, Su Rong's ambiguous, smiling gaze locked onto his, the corners of his mouth curving into an enigmatic smile.

Could it be that this danger came from these bizarrely shaped plants? But they were merely plants; could they really pose a threat to us?

After a brief contemplation, Wuchen still shook his head, maintaining his skepticism. Using the Samsara Eye to alter Dragon's memories was completely imperceptible and soundless; even with Kuma's heaven-defying abilities, he would never detect it.

With a startled cry, she lost her balance and plummeted from mid-air. Just as she was about to make intimate contact with the ground, she fell into a solid embrace.

A ghost suddenly seized Gou Rixin by the throat, its grayish-green face twisting into a ferocious smile as its sharp fingernails dug into his flesh.

Kosa suddenly remembered that in front of this man, all illusions would be seen through, and no one could lie to him.

The entire journey was filled with an awkward atmosphere that left Wu Yuan gasping for breath. Liu Zheyu did not utter a single word, and the car was dead silent.

For a brief moment, he completely forgot who he was, where he was, whether he was a human being or something else entirely. His mind was an utter blank, with only the awareness that he was starving and urgently needed to eat—just like the two cats before him.

Bu Fan simply could not make heads or tails of it. In the end, he slammed the door and drove around the outskirts for a while before returning home.

"Senior Brother Su Mu, let's stop talking about money for now and head outside the commandery governor's estate to check in first. After all, the Martial Arts Ranking Tournament is about to begin, and it's time for us to set off." Naturally, he had not forgotten about this matter.

Seeing this, Su Nanshiqiu let it be. As she nibbled on pastries and sipped spiritual tea, she began to observe the situation in the auction arena.

Jiang Yan had once remarked that Sun Tao possessed decent capability, but his character always left much to be desired, which was why she had kept him suppressed in the position of deputy manager—a grievance Sun Tao had always harbored.

Chatting with Gu Sheng was truly a difficult task; he spoke very little, rarely engaged in back-and-forth conversation, and frequently brought the topic to a dead end.

Before he could finish speaking, Zheng Ming was interrupted by Arthur, who shook his head repeatedly. Zheng Ming had long since grown accustomed to Arthur's eccentric aversion to exposure.

Han Qianyu also steadied her footing the moment Ma Pingchuan stood up. Their eyes met, and two murderous intents materialized out of thin air within the space between them, both rapidly escalating.

I did not offer a specific plan since I had no clue at the moment and could only take things one step at a time.

Simultaneously, from a water birch tree much taller than the surrounding ones, a nearly one-meter-long assassin bug flew out. It was utterly plain and remarkably ugly.

"Damn it! I haven't even gone to settle the score with those bastards for biting me, and yet they dare to try and bite my younger brother. Truly insatiable and courting death!" Bai Qi drew his military saber and cursed fiercely to vent his previous sense of powerlessness and stifled anger.

It was also said that the large black dog was a hound blessed with the Heavenly Eye; if there was a vertical line pointing downward in the center of its brow, that meant its Heavenly Eye had been opened.

On a battlefield like this, merely being able to rescue a companion already demonstrated considerable strength. To waste time now clearing away the petrification value would simply be holding everyone else back.

"I didn't pay attention, but the [Wolf-Devouring King] is indeed the largest one among them," Shen Fengling replied.

In the arena, hundreds and thousands of scattered stones and dust particles suspended in the air were methodically integrated under the young man's telekinetic power, forming the prototype of a massive sword forged from earth and rock.

Yet, in Bailian's eyes, this looked nothing like being persuaded; rather, it seemed as though he was mocking her.

As a newly enthroned emperor, Zhu Youzhen had never imagined that he would have to endure the arrogance of these wandering martial artists. When his father, Zhu Wen, the founding emperor of the Great Liang dynasty, was on the throne, who would have ever dared to treat him with such rudeness?

"Senior has misunderstood. The members of the Corpse Clan are actually my junior brother's puppets. Without his command, the corpse-folk would never commit any atrocities!" Xuantian explained to the old man, clearly wishing to avoid a larger misunderstanding.

A tiger was, after all, not a beast of prey like a cheetah; its robust physique dictated that it could not run continuously for long periods.

After all, Tian Buqi had arrived in the company of the Buddhist Son. If Miyetuo were to simply leave irresponsibly, it would indeed somewhat tarnish the reputation of the Buddhist Sect.

Not only did he participate in the battle himself, but he also encouraged and led the students and teachers of his major to join the activity together.

Sun Buqi found it rather strange: if his roommate were cursing the Wandering Toad or that eunuch who habitually left stories unfinished, the whole affair would not be unusual in the least.

The arrow, released after its draw weight was fully unleashed, skimmed across the grass and flew straight toward the leopard's head.

The elder sighed heavily. After all this fuss, it turned out that not only had Lin Hai failed to grasp his profound intention...

"Since Your Royal Highness the Crown Prince knows, why bother coming here? What the Empire can offer the Heavenly Sect is nothing more than some gold, silver, and material wealth. Does Your Royal Highness think the Heavenly Sect would ever deign to look at such things?" Xiaomeng said.

The courtyard was dead silent; everyone had worked hard for a day and consequently slept with exceptional soundness.

"President Liang of Dongxin praised your professional competence immensely and has been regretting not keeping you at Dongxin back then. Why did you go to a government office in the first place?" Liang Jianwei of Dongxin was notoriously fastidious, and earning his praise was no easy feat.

"Slash!" Since things had already begun, Murong Feng no longer held back. Although he was determined to engineer a draw, the prerequisite was to heavily consume Huo Ling's vital energy. Therefore, retreating abruptly, Murong Feng did not stand on ceremony; he suddenly brought down his Yama Emperor's Breaking Army, and a strip of dark green flame directly bombarded the Water Cloud Ether Void.
