Chapter 27

Su Yun’s limping gait had been completely exposed to He Mian, who watched every step with clear eyes, though Su Yun thought he’d hidden it well and even managed to force a smile.

Su Yun felt a wave of embarrassment—he’d been found out.

“I can—” He winced, “I can’t.” The answer changed the moment he tried to take a step.

The pain was sharp, unmistakable.

“Don’t move,” He Mian said, rolling up Su Yun’s...

Gao Xing’s skills were mostly in his hands; when it came to footwork and stances, he could not compare to Chen Taoran. At this moment, he struggled to fend off attacks, dodging was difficult, and fighting back was out of the question.

[System Prompt]: Good. You now possess the potential to become an ability warrior. If you wish to unlock your superpowers, please erase either your [Martial Artist] or [Archer] class.

Although the Sea King Seal was powerful, Blue Moon’s own reserves were severely depleted, far from enough to threaten formidable foes like the Sea Demons.

Lin Chen possessed an eidetic memory; every name on the Dragon Ranking was etched in his mind. As a member of the first group charged with attacking the main island, all his teammates were elite warriors from that list.

The forest remained tranquil, a gentle breeze on the face, dewdrops dripping from the leaves to nourish the earth.

“Yes, all the immortal beasts have been slain. Also, there’s a spring flowing at the far west; the water is excellent and should suffice for our daily needs,” said Fu Xuefeng, reporting his findings.

“Master, please accept your disciple’s…” He dropped to one knee, about to perform a formal salute, but the old man Feng stopped him, holding him by the arm.

At these words, Zeng Guofan’s expression changed dramatically; Bao Qibao, Qing De, Taqibu, and the rest stood stunned, unable to react.

Such a scene would be utterly ordinary in most households, yet for Chen Taoran, it was something forever out of reach, a longing that could never be fulfilled.

“I just realized—you’re such a pervert…” On the way back to the hotel, Pei Soo-ji lay on his back, whispering.

The ocean of people outside Phoenix Nest Sports Arena made Su Chen realize that investing in esports had been an absolutely correct decision. He did enjoy video games, but back then he played mostly out of boredom and a desire to meet girls, never imagining that esports could be profitable.

In an instant, the green halo merged with the giant sword, transforming the light into a massive green serpent. The serpent coiled around the blade, then embedded itself like a brand. At once, the sword shone with fierce radiance, fanning gales in all directions.

The three entered awkwardly, scratching their heads. Pei Soo-ji suddenly sensed someone’s gaze. Puzzled, she looked back and met Jung Soo-jung’s clear, penetrating eyes.

In his palm, there flickered a faint, visible ghostly flame. It danced in the thin air, casting a deep violet aura, its eerie flashes devouring the life force within Feng Hen with every pulse.

“Awooo!” Consumed by the baleful energy, the gray wolf experienced agony beyond measure. Its once-proud fur began to shed, and the majestic beast was reduced to a pitiful state, collapsing to the ground to writhe and howl.

“Five and a half billion!” came a deep voice from VIP Room Twelve. The Azure Emperor was stunned—what was going on?

The ancient tomb was dark and solemn, an acrid scent of decay lingering in the air. Long Jiaoyang had already activated the Transforming Spirit Formula, his gaze like twin beams of violet light piercing the tomb’s depths.

In the kitchen, Adele pricked up her ears—though in truth, she could hear perfectly well without trying.

Seeing this, Kondra could only sigh in resignation, then ordered his men to surrender. There was no other choice; the gap in strength was far too great. His thousand soldiers were not even enough to fill the cracks in the ranks of the tens of thousands strong Eastern army.

Since her spiritual power could manifest in forms akin to Bai Qi’s ice abilities, there was no harm in teaching her the ice lotus and ice sword techniques for practice.
