Volume 1, Chapter 44: Waiting by the Stump for a Hare Is Hardly Thrilling

Uncle Yu did not dare to persuade her further. He immediately led his men away, took over Yu Yueyue's tasks, and went to transport supplies and medicinal herbs.

Yu Yueyue, with a cold sneer, relocated all the ambushes near Nanshan Slope.

Waiting passively by a stump for rabbits to crash into it—where was the fun in that?

"Damn it, you've been tricked. He's going for a zero-angle shot!" As Heitinga realized he had been deceived and pulled back his foot, Zody's roar rang out from behind him.

Dudu looked around in all directions and spotted a long string of heavy, ripe fruits hanging faintly among the nearby branches. His gaze instantly became extremely eager.

In truth, Li Xun also had a belly full of questions, but marching through this fatal ice mist had already consumed too much of his energy. He had no choice but to keep his mouth shut for the time being and concentrate wholeheartedly on fighting the cold poison.

"What? What's wrong with a figure like mine? That's the most popular plump style of the Tang Dynasty." Seemingly unwilling to let the matter rest when someone criticized her child, Paopao retorted sharply.

Even though Mitsuhashi and his two assistants had not heard the sound of the car plunging off the cliff, Wengu still ordered a search of the surrounding area.

Lanzhi had already gone on a distant journey, yet this failed to curb the increasingly bizarre speculations. In Paopao's words, Lanzhi would always march to the beat of her own drum.

The iron chains that originally attempted to escape were enveloped by the radiance of the Ten-Directions Drum. With a resounding boom, the chains converged together and surrounded the drum.

Sang Erhu then stammered out the truth. Fearing that Sang Chun would scold them for doing private work and neglecting the road-paving duties, they had put the project aside. Only since this morning had they begun working in shifts, which was why this group dared to openly sneak off to fish in the sea.

Since they had heard Lord Doro's command, the magma destroyers would undoubtedly obey it.

When Aldo first began the experiment, he meticulously deduced the calculations, seized the opportune moment, and initiated the game of strategy.

Although Chu Xuanqing did not yet fully understand what helping the Sage of Six Paths entailed, driven by curiosity, he clicked confirm anyway.

However, for someone like the Thunder Sword Saint, who still had a large family to support, his income primarily came from protecting nobles and instructing disciples.

He could no longer hold back; he would launch one counter-charge before retreating. Tipping his toes against the ground, he charged into the pack of monsters and unleashed a Whirlwind Slash, striking their necks and heads with pinpoint accuracy. After the whirlwind passed, the monsters at the front either had their heads severed from their bodies or their faces mangled beyond recognition, all collapsing into pools of blood.

The wizard felt inside his robe and produced the blue crystal illusion sphere that still emitted a faint glow, though unfortunately, its light was now much dimmer than before.

Alas, humans—especially human mages—were utterly incapable of possessing such formidable physical bodies.

Putting aside what the future might hold for now, Ye Fan focused his senses and located the respective landing spots of Dong Town and the great demon; one lay to the east and the other to the west, both hovering on the brink of death with severe, fatal injuries.

Fortunately, although the Magicians' Association was dilapidated, it still retained some signs of life. Louis saw many people resembling adventurers coming here to accept commissions and earn some hard-earned money.

Kurama leaned back against the brick wall, crossed his legs, and watched the young man outside—who was still entirely oblivious to what had happened—while twitching his paws in sync with his tails.

"Halt!" A squad of guards at the entrance immediately intercepted her. "Who goes there!" Judging by their attire, it was impossible to tell whether these soldiers belonged to the Ten Eunuchs or Yuan Shao, and at this moment, she could not ask aloud.

"What you say makes sense. Even if they die, it will be from venomous snakebites, which has nothing to do with us. Now, come with me to collect the money so we can return it to Baldy Qiang." Lin Ruoxi's utmost desire right now was to draw a clear line between herself and Huo Da, refusing to have even the slightest involvement with him anymore.
