Chapter 83: Only a Fool Would Stay

"Susan, I'll go with you to check the surveillance footage."

Just as Susan was feeling puzzled, Liufei Yun suddenly grabbed her and headed straight into the shop.

Ye Cheng, seeing Susan and Liufei Yun enter the store, smiled knowingly and walked over to the burly man and the middle-aged woman. Pointing at them, he loudly repeated:

"You two..."

Therefore, Lin Tian could only say no to the tourists eager for underwater treasure hunts, asking them to stay on the boat and watch the underwater adventure through the screens.

Patriarch Chi Gu was devoted to the Twin Demon clan, unlike Supreme Cheng Gu, the traitor who devoured his own kin for selfish gain.

Countless blades of energy rained down from the sky, instantly enveloping the five surviving level-eight skeleton warriors. The rocky ground within dozens of meters was blasted apart by Wu Tian's onslaught.

"Just a bit of chili peppers can make the braised duck taste so delicious? I truly hadn't expected that. So, tell me, how do you propose we cooperate?" Xun Pu asked.

At that moment, a divine bolt of lightning appeared on the horizon, shaking the heavens and the earth. It resembled a purple halberd entwined with electricity, splitting into seven strands as it tore open the sky.

"How dare you show such disrespect to your prince and still hope to leave? Seize this rebellious disciple for me!" The prince roared at Wu Tian, his anger flaring. His mood had already been sour, and encountering Wu Tian provided the perfect outlet.

Among these people, many were familiar to Ye Wushuang—Ice Abyss, Blue Ze, Luo Yunjiao, and also Murong Ye and Bai Han.

Han Xiao shouted fiercely, his wrist flicking as he unleashed the Seven Stars Sword Technique, deflecting the arrows from below with all his might. However, having hurried with all his strength, his spiritual energy was depleted. A sudden sharp pain in his shoulder made him realize his left shoulder had been struck by an arrow.

Upon entering the grand hall, five coiling dragon pillars stood before him, with a majestic statue of the Sword King at the center—six eyes and three arms, gazing upon the heavens, earth, and humanity, holding sway over the six realms: immortals, buddhas, humans, demons, ghosts, and fiends. Its gaping maw and fangs inspired awe and dispelled evil thoughts.

Su Yiling thought the one taking her away was the very executioner who would end her life, and resisted fiercely, refusing to leave. In the end, the empress herself came to visit, gently persuading Su Yiling and personally dressing her in imperial robes to prepare for a simple coronation ceremony.

The sound grew ever more urgent and rapid—clearly, the two giant wolves had lost patience and were about to break through the ice.

Jiao Yu lifted her head to look at Wu Chenfei, noticing his eyes shining with both determination and a gentle tenderness, two utterly contradictory emotions in his expression.

Everyone turned toward the voice and saw Shen Boru riding the clouds, rising into the air. He extended his right index finger, while his left hand traced a casual gesture. Drops of blood spattered from his right fingertip, and his left hand continued moving, casting out a spell. The droplets of blood seemed to come alive, leaping through the air.

As Ma Yuan entered, Hinata Hyuga was practicing the Sixty-Four Palms with a member of her family's branch house.

The crowd, eyes red with rage, surged toward the three of them. Even if they couldn't escape the restaurant, they were determined to take someone down with them.

Watching Baili Lan pass by, Su Yichen drained his cup of strong liquor, his gaze dark and brooding as it followed her. It felt as if thousands of insects gnawed at his heart, frantically seeking a way out, only to find themselves trapped in a dead end, leaving his heart chewed raw and bleeding, with no escape.

"Fei'er believes that this time we can finally defeat Ling Yuwei and Nangong Yi once and for all." Although Ling Yufei was not clear on Nangong Ye's exact plans, she trusted that he would never act without certainty. Since he had decided to approach the emperor, it meant everything was already in place.

"Traveling—I told you, everywhere you've been, I must go too. Now you believe me, don't you?" Xia Ranqi spoke with pride, as if her words foretold some monumental achievement.

Rubbing the back of her neck, Su Yiling slowly opened her eyes. Frowning, she sat up in bed, looking around in confusion.
