Volume 1, Chapter 156: The Continuation of Life

Xia Shuo walked out of the room. In the hallway, the entire NAT group was assembled. All seven young men were tall with long legs, their made-up features strikingly gorgeous, and every flicker of their eyes and smile was intensely alluring.

Just as the others remained deep in thought, Wang Damao, a man in his thirties with dark skin, spoke with a look of disdain and mockery.

He did not move, but this intrusion nearly crushed Lu Yanyan. She did not struggle; the tears simply streamed down uncontrollably.

He reverted to his aloof and unapproachable demeanor, as if the scene of him looking aggrieved and on the verge of tears in his arms moments ago was merely an illusion.

"I am his savior, and he is my employer. That's all." Having said that, she continued eating her snacks with unconcerned indifference.

Because of the short distance, the villagers gathered materials from the immediate surroundings, and the trees on the front mountain were basically chopped down completely.

Inside the shelter, Chen Sihai looked pale with cold sweat beading on his forehead as he stood before Wang Changlin's corpse to explain to Miao Yu.

Sea beasts, each exceeding a hundred meters in length, crawled ashore one after another. Their numbers were so vast and densely packed that they occupied everything within the line of sight.

Then, not giving him another chance to speak, she chanted a binding spell, trapping Hua Qingdan in place.

Chen Ergou raised his eyes to watch the opponent's spiritual blade descend. A concentrated aura shrouded the blade's surface—it was the blade qi condensed by Lin Dong, and its formidable power seemed capable of tearing everything apart.

Xue Hun chanted a succession of arcane and ancient incantations. Following his spells, from that deep and fathomless void, there suddenly appeared an eye that blotted out the sky. It was a single eye, a vertical eye that covered the heavens and the sun.

"Cooperation?" Mason asked, looking at Liu Wei with a trace of bewilderment as if he were hearing the term for the very first time.

Although the old man's words sounded simple, they were sharp on every front. He was pushing me step by step, urging me to make a decision immediately. I glanced at the old man and, instead of answering his question in a hurry, turned around and walked toward Sima Qian and the others.

At this moment, Ximen was inwardly caught between laughter and tears. He hadn't dared to tell his elder sister about the other problem with this Joyous Union Technique—namely, that if he continued to practice it this way, he would definitely never be satisfied. Oh, if he were to voice that out, Ximen had no idea who would be laughing then.

Elder Moling threw another punch forward. With a loud crack, Elder Moling's arm twisted directly; that hand of his was probably crippled.

However, Chaofeng executed an uncanny maneuver to dodge in advance, and the Grand Supervisor could not easily use his cultivation to block him.

Hearing this, the burly man in black stood on ceremony. With one hand, he grabbed the rim of the stone pot and effortlessly lifted the stone pot weighing over a thousand catties, possessing supernatural strength. He was neither afraid of burning his mouth nor scalding his hands. But before he could taste the food, he put the stone pot back down and turned, along with the white-browed elder, to look toward the cave entrance.

The ending, of course, held no pleasant surprises or miracles; the judge rejected our appeal on the grounds that Yue Heng could use remote devices like telephones to commit murder.

Realizing that I was looking at her face with wild thoughts, Hongjuan blushed, and her first reaction was to hide aside quickly. Yet, as if suddenly remembering something, she stopped moving and lowered her head as low as it could possibly go.

"Liehuo, are these people making money by transporting pearls, agates, and other such items to the Demon and Martial Continent to exchange for gold coins?" Looking at the burly man not far away who was curiously sorting through treasures while glancing over their way, Lu Ming asked the Blazing Flame Phoenix in confusion.

Everyone seated bore expressions of exhaustion. In fact, ever since the allied forces besieged the city half a month ago, not a single person present had known a single day of peace.

With the grey spiritual qi operating in this manner, within ten days, the injuries sustained by Qin Yi would completely vanish into nothingness.

This artificial island, floating approximately 330 kilometers in the sea south of Tokyo, is also known as the Special Demon District. Established under the "Sanctuary Treaty" jointly signed by the three true ancestors and other independent national governments, it is designated as a special administrative zone to protect endangered demons and research their physical tissues and special abilities.

What an enormous piece! Actually, in Xiyan's opinion, calling it a "piece" was barely appropriate; once placed inside the room, that object occupied a full third of the space. However, it was not jade, but a massive boulder. One of its cut sides revealed a dark green color, making it look like a piece of raw jadeite.

This was the first time she had spoken to him of her own accord. Shen Anlin felt slightly relieved, leaped down from his horse, and stood before her.

The grey giant sword trembled slightly, and with the supreme might of cleaving heaven and earth, it slashed emptily toward the elderly man in yellow robes.

"What should I do?" Raising her eyes, her intoxicated expression inadvertently mingled with a hint of seduction, yet she deliberately feigned the utmost innocence and purity, waiting for others to make a mistake.

Kotori made a contemptuous gesture toward her sister, then spoke as if reproaching an unpromising junior.

"I only visited this Southern Emperor Palace once a thousand years ago. A millennium has passed, and I wonder if anything has changed here. But finding this Southern Emperor Palace shouldn't be too difficult; I can just casually grab a magical beast and ask," Long Hun murmured with absolute confidence.
