Chapter 44: Huo Congjing Met with an Accident

Aunt Wang chimed in from the side, "Exactly. She is a young woman from the city, how could she possibly fancy your son?"

The old woman's eyes rolled, and she threw her arms around stupid Dachu, making a scene, "City or no city, once she's down in the countryside, she shouldn't be dreaming of going back! My son has taken a liking to her, and he'll be able to give her a full belly in the future. What right do you people have to bully my son like this!"

With a sudden surge of thought, the giant ape swept its left hand upward, cleaving out like a wild, furious blade. With a deafening boom, the white feathers covering the Crimson-Wood Vessel instantly burst apart and scattered in all directions. It was out; the giant ape had broken free. Using its full strength to hack apart thousands of feathers, how could it possibly fail?

Everything was proceeding very smoothly. Compared to those ordinary clan members who were unaware of the truth, resisted fiercely, and caused chaos, the high-ranking members of the Yang family had already received advance notice from the Council of Elders and thus offered not the slightest resistance.

The black beam of light struck the golden light, producing a sound like a giant bell tolling. With a crisp cracking sound, the golden light shattered, and Zhang Liang had already taken the opportunity to support and retreat with Gairie.

"So what if we settle accounts after the autumn harvest? If we are given a few years until the basic industries are fully established, even if Kolchak goes back on his word, we won't need to fear him. Wiping them all out in one clean sweep is the neatest way." Huang Bohan still preferred an exhaustive extermination.

Luo Zhuo watched for a long time without making head or tail of it, wondering what the Monkey King would think if he were to resurrect and find Flower-Fruit Mountain reduced to this state.

As matters stood, it was actually the spirit of the Asking Zen Blade that was reminding the Buddha Lord of Thousand Buddha Mountain not to forget his inherent responsibility.

There was no help for it. The two ship-girls currently contending for this purple-grade heavy main battery equipment were a pair of renowned ship-girl sisters—Theresa Kenner, a battleship-girl with seven-star strength, and Fassal Kenner, a battlecruiser-girl also with seven-star strength.

Cui Fei grinned, squeezing out a cold laugh, and simply plopped down right next to Chen Yuan. "My two artillery divisions' worth of firepower still failed to blast you to pieces. It seems you and I are locked in a lifelong feud; neither of us is going to die a cheap death easily."

This was the second time he had heard the term Galamay, and this time, it firmly etched the name into Zeng Ming's memory.

"No matter. Anyway, I've found those two Lu family brothers an eyesore for a long time anyway," Ling Jian said indifferently.

Ni Liang sighed with emotion, at a loss for words to describe his thoughts. Previously, he had claimed that this fiend had lost its mind over some matter and was "not yet awake," but in truth, reflecting deeply upon it here, was it really just unawakened?

Thinking of the Great Ape King and the others, one could sense the Great Dao laws during their combat, though suppressed deep within their bodies by the boundless chaos and unable to erupt, yet every strike made them palpable.

A living god could be utilized as protection and a tool, but the corpse of a dead god also possessed numerous wondrous uses. The Tree God's wondrous property was that its very branches could become existences like God-Blocking Wood, which could exert special effects such as isolating spiritual power—restrictions that applied to someone like Nep.

"It's not too late to realize it now," Jin Lvfeng said, the corners of his mouth curving into a rogueish smile as his handsome face closed in on her, leaving her with nowhere to retreat.

Shocked as she was, she had to admit it was still quite natural. With channels for contacting the outside world being so scarce and strictly controlled by others, it was hardly surprising that Fairy White Lotus was so innocent.

The Inspection Hall verified that Hua Feng's attempted flight had failed, immediately revoked his release on bail, and had him directly detained without the right to bail until he stood trial.

"Let's head to the encampment of Ang Feng's forces first. As for the allocation, we can discuss it on the way," said Xiao Tao.

Han Yi raised his hand in a summoning gesture, and the distant five-colored light ring flashed, suddenly appearing right before him. The attacking golden-armored guards were sucked directly into it by the five-colored light ring.
