Chapter 66 Luring the Fish into the House

"My King, you've been watching here for a very long time!"
"Have I?"
In the river, a parrotfish flicked its tail and said, "We've been lurking here for days, and we haven't seen your female yet. Why don't we go up and take a look?"
Xiao Ze poked his head out, gazing far into the distance at the riverbank.
"How come the guarding beasts of the Snake clan are gone?"
"Huh?"
The parrotfish also surfaced.
"They're really gone! Let's hurry up!"
Following closely behind, Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling were vomiting with pale faces. Hearing the sigh, they remained silent and kept quiet.
It is said that when silver piles up over a long period, it decays into silver mud, commonly known among the common people as "dead silver." Once weathered, this decayed silver mud becomes as hard as iron. Even if hammered with quarrying mallets and hammers, it only leaves a white scratch. If "silver screens" are used as tomb wall barriers, they are far sturdier and more solid than ordinary rammed-earth walls.
During the hundreds of years since the two countries were established, emperors changed one after another, but the friendship between the nations never once changed.
The sound startled the three men not far away, but by the time they rushed over, all that awaited them were the cold and lifeless corpses of their companions.
"Shangguan Wenfei! How dare you stand me up?!" Although Cheng Ren was running at the very back, her voice was the first to arrive.
Those terrifying and disgusting undead bugs, as if they had encountered their nemesis, gathered in panic into a dark, ominous cloud and fled in a flurry toward the inner depths of the Land of Death.
As for Mo Yun, the Imperial Ultimate Sword in his hand swept out waves of sword radiance, continuously harvesting the lives of all approaching enemy soldiers. He would occasionally fling a Primordial Dao spell, blasting whole groups of people into the air.
Before heading to Fangshan, the two of them first went to "Language of Fruits," selecting some freshly baked pastries, preserved fruits, and herbal tea. Originally, they had prepared these snacks out of worry that they might miss lunch and go hungry.
Hou Xibai stepped down from the carriage and exchanged a few low words with a welcoming attendant. The attendant glanced at Zhang Xuanning, nodded in agreement, and then Hou Xibai laughed heartily and headed straight up.
Walking along the grand avenue of the Imperial City with Hela by his side, Wang Wei found people pointing at him from both sides of the road. Lacking the grand spectacle where people everywhere would loudly cheer, "Our Aurora," Wang Wei actually felt much more peace and quiet.
At first, taking advantage of the element of surprise and some rudimentary combat skills, the two members of the Tang family managed to gain a slight upper hand. However, as time dragged on, their fatal weakness of lacking stamina gradually revealed itself.
"Young Master Feng, if you leave at this moment, wouldn't that just tell these people that we are afraid of them?" Li Batian's puzzled voice rang out.
Suspended in mid-air, she guided with her delicate hand, and seven identical purple longswords shot forth like lightning, attacking directly toward Shi Jian's chest.
Wang Pengyu had ultimately underestimated his opponent. The combat experience of these terrifying figures, who possessed millennia of lifespan, was simply incomparable to that of a novice celestial master like Wang Pengyu.
"Good! With this crystal mother, it is equivalent to possessing a realm of one's own space. Its value is comparable to this deity's Heaven-Preaching Creation Pill!" Gazing at the Five Elements Crystal Mother in the old man's hand, Qianyuan nodded and praised, a flash of covetousness simultaneously appearing on his face.
Zhang Tiansong found the old man before him increasingly unfathomable. Could it be true, as he claimed, that back in the day he was indeed a renowned figure in the Daoist cultivation world, someone before whom even figures like Lihun could only address themselves as juniors? If that were true, then his earlier talk of defying the heavens to alter fate and the so-called Daoist charm actually held a few grains of credibility.
After leaving the dessert shop in low spirits, he found Li Liliang, who was still embracing two police officers. He was truly caught between laughter and tears. However, the onlookers had already been dispersed by the police, and only passing cars slowed down, followed by a flash of white light inside the vehicles.
Now, having enjoyed several days of peace and tranquility at home, the lingering anxiety of homesickness had vanished completely. Moreover, his realm, which had been suppressed for a long time, made another breakthrough. Perhaps this was the time for him to leave home.
