Chapter 26: Here for the Money

This godforsaken place is filled with perilous lands; Saints and Creation-level entities make it chaotic beyond measure. The level of danger here is absolutely incomparable to the previous two instances.

The Demon Saint Chitie was overjoyed. A major obstacle that had long plagued the Xuanhua Palace had finally been resolved, and from now on, the palace could steadily develop and eventually dominate the entire Heavenly River.

Lan Sushi cast a sidelong glance at Su Mo and ignored him; it seemed that was not the case. She was likely just consolidating her cultivation.

Wen Zhong nodded. He naturally understood that although his master had not formally taken this disciple, in reality, it was only a matter of a title. This White Bone was the one who had truly received his master’s genuine teachings and inherited his full repertoire of skills.

Jing Fa’s back was torn and bloodied from the snake’s tail, yet he remained crouched on the serpent's head, holding his position.

The ancient bronze coffin landed on the summit of Mount Tai with a heavy "clatter," causing the mountain to tremble as if in an earthquake. Boulders tumbled down the slopes with a rumbling sound, like the charge of ten thousand galloping horses.

Just as Xiao Yu was speaking, the quiet room suddenly fell silent; the humming of the talismanic artifacts, to which everyone had grown accustomed, had ceased.

"The agent takes a twenty percent cut." Yu Ming thought to himself, "As expected, between the agent and the company, it adds up to eighty percent—truly a steep amount! It seems they intend to recoup all the investments made in me within three years."

Across the heavens, all parties were stunned. No one expected such an event to occur within the Heavenly Court, nor that the Demon Saint Due would make such a choice.

As the great tribulation of heaven and earth progressed and events unfolded, Due wondered if accidents might befall many of his treasures.

Without realizing it, it was already midday. After Zhao Wuji finished his training, he noticed the Elder had regained consciousness. Due to his physical condition, he had not yet fully recovered and was lying on the bed, motionless. Zhao Wuji walked over, but noticing a language barrier and hearing the Chairman and the King chatting in the inner chamber, he paused.

For some reason, upon seeing this dark face, a sense of palpitations spread through my entire body. My intuition had issued a warning to me once again.

"I understand," Cheng Gang agreed readily. Capturing over a dozen elite agents in one fell swoop was a rare occurrence worldwide. Many countries would take years to uncover a single elite operative, let alone capture one. Myanmar’s feat of capturing so many at once was enough to be a deterrent.

In a fleeting moment, a terrifying and brilliant beam of axe light was born, cleaving the sky and the earth into two halves.

"Not only that, Brother Cheng is the Holy Knight who pierces through the darkness!" Peter’s expression grew solemn; he deeply admired Fang Cheng for this identity.

Inside the arena, two massive iron cages were placed. One held a lion, and the other a jaguar. Both were ravenous, pacing in circles while growling in low voices, appearing highly agitated.

"We will look for an opportunity to slip past them where they aren't paying attention. You don't need to come; since there are only a few of us, our chances are much higher," Zhao Wuji said to Xue Ying, and Lin Yu translated the words.

"Pardon my rudeness, but unlike Ike, I don't have time to be idle. I am quite busy with processing paperwork, cleaning the dorms, and handling meals," Sharon replied defensively.

Everyone’s expression tightened, and they could not help but be moved. No one had ever heard Zhao Wuji speak with such resolve. They did not dare treat it as a joke and firmly took it to heart, as this was a matter concerning their very lives.

When an Immortal King dies, such thunderstorms rain down upon the Star Sea. Dian Feng felt this was an opportunity for his physical body to undergo a transformation.

Therefore, Zhang Yan never imagined that I, Yun Zexiong, the undisputed boss of Deren Middle School, would actually have Wang Yandong go and call the school’s security guards to help get me out of trouble. In their eyes, such behavior was likely considered utterly shameless.

Sensing that the demon crystal of the Human-Faced Sky Wolf Spider had been seized by Luo Hao, the surrounding flames surged violently before rushing fiercely toward him.

To thoroughly enforce this deterrent, the Sect Master of the Three Ultimates Sect would usually inspect every secret chamber in the sect upon succession.

The previous issues arose because of a lack of communication, leading to a sense of insecurity. This time, An Gaolei took the initiative to communicate with Shen Linfeng, successfully easing the tension between them.

According to Tong Tian’s estimation, given the current progress and efficiency, the experiments could begin in a few more days. He did not need to be overly anxious.

Faced with this stranger of unknown origin speaking such strange words, Luo Tianmu did not know what to say, and the others dared not even breathe deeply. After all, this person was a powerhouse comparable to the late stage of the Tianyuan Realm, and dealing with them would be as easy as flipping his hand.

I hurriedly channeled my Yin energy to protect my body and swung my hands, which were infused with Yin energy, to hack away at the flying Gu insects. Some were shattered by my energy, but there were simply too many, and a few managed to reach me. Fortunately, I had the protection of my Yin energy, and those that struck me were repelled.

While watching, Xi Luo smiled, though she was also curious: Xu Baiyu had written so much, yet why hadn't it been censored?

However, she was also startled. The walking corpses she had seen before only appeared at night, but now it was daytime.

"This is not a difficult task. Once you bring your father’s remains back, I will have fulfilled my final mission. Having left China for over twenty years, it is time for me to return to my roots. But once you reach Yanjing, your father’s remains will be buried. Do you not intend to go back?" Tong Zhan Ying asked, puzzled.

The players chatted and laughed about the hilarious scene where Gofeng used his "Divine Dragon Tail-Whip" to send the two tough interior defenders of the Australian team tumbling into a heap.

The stench of rot slowly spread. The Princess’s figure was nearly translucent. She could neither speak nor scream, but her expression was one of extreme agony, her eyes never leaving Gao Yucheng. The Princess had lingered in the mortal world for over thirty years using secret Gu arts, but this time, she was destined to perish.

This trendy man arrived in a Mercedes-Benz, and Feng Lili immediately pegged him as a wealthy man.

Although the momentum of the Chinese team never faltered and the support from the home fans was like a surging tide and roaring thunder, the Argentines displayed nerves of steel. They were not intimidated by the atmosphere, executing their coach's tactics with one hundred percent precision.
