Chapter 178: You’ve Gone Soft! There’s Still Some Genuine Feeling Left
Then they saw the passage, taller than a person and seemingly embedded directly into space itself, violently shaking and spinning continuously in a counterclockwise direction.
Mo Zi also caught sight of Elder Bai Sheng and the other elders of the Hidden Dragon Academy gathered in the plaza, and immediately let go of Qin Yun's hand. After all, facing a group of experts at the Sun-seizing Realm, she felt the need to mind her manners and maintain her composure.
During the second journey to Yunbai, it could be said that the identity of the first skeleton found in the Xiaxiao Kiln village was only half solved. Although both Yi Qing and Xiao Wei believed that the skeleton should belong to Chen Yousan, given the painful slaps to their faces from previous misjudgments, no one dared to jump to conclusions quite so rashly this time.
Meanwhile, major nations equipped with military satellites were also jolted into alertness, keeping a close eye on the sudden and bizarre battle unfolding across the Pacific waters.
Having received intelligence regarding the target's whereabouts, he had hurried straight to the destination. Knowing full well that someone would come looking for trouble today, Qian Qiu had deliberately chosen a remote and desolate location, allowing him to unleash his attacks without the slightest restraint.
The figures spilling out from the black cars were all dressed like street thugs, armed with iron pipes, baseball bats, and similar weapons.
This was an island spanning a thousand miles, filled with towering mountains, overlapping ridges, and lush forests, preserving the pristine and natural appearance of a primeval jungle.
"Um, Commander Feng, you are also at the Spirit Sea Realm. Why have you come to this Land of Fortune?" Qin Yun's gaze flickered as he looked toward Zhuge Yufeng.
Without delay, the group plucked the thirty-six rule fruits, deciding to test them in batches so that any unforeseen changes could be dealt with in a timely manner.
Led by the student union members, the group arrived at the school gates. Freshmen were trickling in one after another, and senior students immediately stepped forward to welcome them, guiding them to the building for registration and fee payment, as well as showing them the locations of their dormitories.
Back in the ruins of Yinchi, when he first encountered Meng Chan, he had respected him as Meng Yuxin's older brother and treated him with due courtesy. But looking at the current situation, the other party seemed intensely hostile; why should he humiliate himself by playing up to someone with cold indifference?
Merely two unremarkable wisps of purple flame possessed such terrifying might. Moreover, to be able to manipulate the Violet Spirit Extreme Fire into various forms with such effortless casualness—such a feat was beyond the reach of even ordinary Qi-refining cultivators.
If it were an ordinary wild beast, it would probably still be hopping around, in which case Meli intended to finish it off with a single blade strike, skin it, and keep it for a midnight snack.
"Originally, your martial mother only possessed a Yin Pearl. It just so happened that during this trip to the Southern Wilderness border region by the decree of our ancestors, Master accidentally acquired a Yang Pearl. Bringing them together as a pair to offer to you and Xue'er as a grand wedding congratulatory gift could not be more appropriate!" Zhongsun Tian stroked his beard and laughed from the side.
"Hmph." Ye Zemin let out a soft laugh, shook his head with a trace of helplessness, and crooked a finger at the group of thugs.
After Yang Qingqing nodded, Ye Zemin kicked open the bulkhead ahead and led her forward. The assassin was still behind him slaughtering the tourists in the corridors, but he did not bother checking the rooms one by one, clearly intending to blow up this luxury cruise ship by some means in the end.
"Very well, fellow Daoist, please follow me!" Zhao Min's expression turned solemn as he nodded. He then instructed his subordinates to properly settle the other members of the Pixiu clan before leading Hei Huo toward the council hall in Nebula City.
Reluctant though he was, Chen San had no choice but to halt his cultivation of the Heavenly River Orthodox Method, replacing the Heavenly River True Qi with this new stream of energy to serve as his primary cultivation technique.
"Do not even think about teleportation. This area has already been locked down by my aura; even an early-stage Tier 9 Emperor Realm expert need not dream of teleporting away!" Hua He said indifferently.
The words he had spoken earlier were meant to dissuade Gu Youming from pursuing a battle to the death. It was not out of any fear of Gu Youming's strength, but rather a desire to give the other man a chance to survive.
A sense of astonishment stirred within my heart. I could not imagine how Jun Mochen had endured those dark days, yet I knew well that it could not have been easy. His path must have been exceptionally arduous.
Wang Jiaci glared at me, then nodded gently, pulling out her toothbrush and mimicking the motion of flicking foam onto me.
Upon hearing the mention of the Supreme Divine Fire, Fang Xiaoqi's body gave a violent shudder. She stared at Zhuo Yu in utter astonishment, never expecting him to possess such flames. As a supreme deity, she understood this fire better than anyone else; let alone a Realm God, even a slightly weaker supreme deity would find it difficult to control such terrifying flames.
"Tong Zhixin!" Deng Ye's head was practically venting steam. He forcefully yanked his clothes back from her grip, but his trousers began to slip as Tong Zhixin shifted her target straight to his belt.
"I'll call her back. She shouldn't have gone far." Shen Xingzhi no longer felt any mood to be hostile toward Jing Yan at this moment. He pulled out his phone and dialed Shen Ruochu's number, but the line went unanswered after several consecutive calls, presumably because it was too noisy outside for her to hear.
"Fellow Daoist, I truly do not know how to thank you!" Sun Riyue's emotions surged. He had never imagined that the day would come when he could finally escape the prison of this ancient space.
At that moment, the restless throbbing within my chest finally calmed down. I took a deep breath, the weight upon my shoulders shifting slightly with the motion.
Taking advantage of their conversation, I pondered the situation. Old Gray Mouse's words made sense; whatever the origin of this ship might be, we had to investigate it to have peace of mind. However, taking too many people would make things far too cluttered and complicated. I decided to let Old Gray Mouse lead the way, while Fatty and I would enter the water. Working alongside my trusted brothers was always the smoothest approach.
