Volume One, Chapter 38: Shield Upgrade: Liu He’s Non-Electronic Adventure
Upon seeing the tracking birds, Silver Moon became convinced that the Blue Python’s attempt to kill the Mane Wolf was ordered by the Beast King. The Beast King was notoriously suspicious by nature and frequently required his subordinates to carry two tracking birds to record every detail of their missions.
He stretched out his hands, which were hidden beneath his black robes. One hand pressed against her shoulder to keep her from collapsing, while the other rested atop her head. A strange purple glow ignited in his palm, slowly seeping from her crown into her body.
In contrast, Zhao Yi stood as steady as a rock, not moving an inch. The foot he had used to kick out had been retracted at some point, and his aura remained perfectly composed.
However, letting them go was impossible. Doing so would be equivalent to strengthening the forces of Liangshan Marsh for no reason, which would be a devastating blow to the Demon Spirit Sea. If the other cultivators were to find out, the level of disappointment would be unimaginable.
Leng Xuexin hurried forward and turned Long Xingyu’s body over. A pale, bloodless face appeared before her eyes, and her heart skipped a beat.
"A clever move, Xin Lan. You really do have a trick up your sleeve to discover the spirit-controlling technique I hid within the flora. Without concealment, everything is laid bare—but what about the ground itself?" A grimace appeared on Old Night’s face.
He spoke these words with fervor, then suddenly pulled the window open slightly and tossed the jade pendant out.
The most urgent task now was to confront the awakening and fury of the Six Demon Guild Master. Killing him completely and completing the "Soul Burial" was the only priority.
Unfortunately, it was a miserable stroke of luck that Mo Xi had injured his leg. Although he could walk slowly, any hope of maintaining his balance or similar feats was out of the question.
Ye Fei saw that things were taking a turn for the worse; the Dark Spirit Tribe seemed on the verge of a total collapse. He had to find Sakura of the Abdomen first and take her away immediately.
Although Gu Meng did not understand what Song Ximing was thinking, she had no intention of asking further. She walked up to him, poked his arm, and began to question him.
Guan Yanqi nearly struck again the moment he saw the butler yield to Guan Chenji. Too lazy to deal with Guan Yanqi, Guan Chenji turned around and walked out of the Guan Corporation.
Du Wenrou frowned. Though she could no longer see any trace of gentleness, she could still hear Xiao Jingtang’s voice echoing continuously from beyond the void.
As for the location of the prison specifically designed to hold demon criminals, it was certainly not something people of their generation would know. On this Itogami Island, that prison was yet another urban legend whispered among the citizens.
Song Yiyi wanted to ride her horse back, but Xiaohou Ce refused. He pulled her into his arms and they rode back together on a single horse.
Da Niu had hidden the golden axe under his bed, wrapped in cloth. When he brought it out, Ouyang Feng’s eyes lit up; he also favored such massive weapons. As Da Niu unwrapped the layers of cloth, a glittering, three-foot-long double-edged giant axe appeared before the eyes of Zhao Fuxin and the others.
Song Yiyi nodded. After enduring a lecture from Lady Liu, the sky grew dark, and the family gathered together for a meal.
Li Zelv’s legal training back in the day was truly sharp; he could identify the heart of a problem at a glance. However, Gu Meng had no intention of circling around this issue with him.
Hearing this, Cheng Xunjun’s cheeks flushed red. Just as he spoke, the housekeeper arrived with their meal. She couldn't help but gently step on his foot. The housekeeper suppressed a smile, set the meal before them, and said with her head bowed, "Sir, Madam, please enjoy your meal," before walking away.
The situation at the yamen was unclear, but even if they were released, another incident was inevitable. In the capital, aside from Pei Fangwu… there was also Lou Dongfeng.
Shi Huaiying seemed to be waiting for their call; the moment the line connected, she picked up the phone.
Yesterday, it had killed a Giant Rock Beast and occupied its cave to rest for a while. It had originally planned to return to the Dragon Mountains tomorrow, but it was suddenly startled awake by the roars.
"Calling it 'brainwashing' is accurate enough, but I am pleased nonetheless. After all, once these shareholders are persuaded, establishing the Urban Investment Company will be relatively simple," Chen Ping said.
*Swish, swish*—two more sounds of landing followed. With Shionji Min on his back, Lin Yi arrived behind the demon alongside Chun-Li.
"It is truly shameful that such a matter requires you to take action yourself, Director Chen. But I believe that with you involved, the matter will surely be resolved with ease!" Section Chief Zhao said.
However, the self-satisfied Guan Lin could not tell that Chen Ping was merely pretending. This was hardly surprising, given that Chen Ping’s acting skills had been honed through cutthroat political maneuvering and further polished by role-playing with Le Qingyun. How could someone of Guan Lin’s caliber possibly spot a flaw?
After meeting with foreign guests at the Diaoyutai State Guesthouse, he returned to Yuquan Hill. Upon learning of Xu Dingbang’s arrival, Vice Premier Sun Chengjun immediately went to the residence where Xu Dingbang was staying to find him.
A vast, peaceful aura slowly swept toward the vengeful ghosts. If anyone were standing within the formation, they would only feel a warm breeze, much like the air from a hairdryer—though slightly scorching, it would have little other effect.
"What are you crying for? Is someone dead?" Cao Cuishan barked. Scolded in this manner, Cao Cuishan’s wife, despite her panic, dared not scream again.
Qin Tian, a newcomer, wandered around the University of Economics and Trade only to realize he had been duped.
Hearing Ye Yingfan’s words, everyone boarded the helicopter and headed toward the Liu family estate.
