Volume 1, Chapter 60: Begging for the Protection of the Drunken Immortal Tower!

Seeing the look of panic on Lin Yan's face, Cang Ye could not help but smile. Yet, Cang Ye's body was slowly fading away, gradually turning into dense spots of light that vanished completely.

Then, Sun Yaosheng traded some more ammunition to Qin Yan, and after having Qin Yan switch to an M416, the group began to execute their tactical plan.

However, after being calmed down by Jun Wuji, memories resurfaced in greater clarity. Instead of being deeply trapped in past pain and hatred, he felt a touch of lingering emotion and complexity.

Ouyang Ningxin had never been one to initiate conversations, and Yu Lingmo was accustomed to maintaining an iceberg expression.

It was mildly spicy, yet it intensely whetted one's appetite. Even Madam Cheng, who typically disliked spicy food, could not resist taking a few extra bites.

Crisp footsteps echoed from behind the curtains on one side of the podium, and shortly after, everyone saw two figures—one tall and one short—slowly walking toward the stage.

It could be said that Transcendent Manifestation: True Time meant that while a single second passed in the real world, the caster experienced ten seconds.

"If you aren't following me, why are you acting so sneakily? Speak, what is your purpose!" Ouyang Ningxin cared not that the old man was playing the rogue.

Yet in this primeval wilderness, there was none of the hustle and bustle of the mortal world; instead, it appeared remarkably desolate, and within that desolation lay an extraordinary sense of serene seclusion.

However, a sudden thought crossed his mind, and he secretly startled: "Could the Golden Mantis Beast be related to the Blood Demon Beast?" This was merely a natural, subconscious train of thought. Limited by his accumulated knowledge, he could not fathom anything further.

Such intense resentment! Why, why? Why on earth could the content in the backend system's "Author's Notes" not be displayed? Why? Why?

"I have also been pondering this matter these past few days. Currently, there are only two solutions. One is to have you leave the palace now to recuperate elsewhere, but I am uneasy about that; the other is to remain strictly behind closed doors and devise a method to deter anyone from daring to approach. Perhaps that way, we might be able to keep it hidden." Zhan Xi said in a deep voice.

In the middle of the night, someone would frantically pound on the windows outside, but as soon as anyone got up to investigate, those people would instantly flee far away.

The morning court session had lasted for nearly two hours, and since there were no major matters today, it was almost time to dismiss. At that moment, Emperor Kangming on the dragon throne cleared his throat and called out to the Crown Prince.

"This soup tastes truly wonderful. Does Aunt Min often stew this for you?" Sang Cenqing finished the remaining half-crock of soup and meat in one breath, smacked his lips, and asked with a look that suggested he was still craving more.

His voice was low, carrying a slight huskiness that, when heard in the dark, seemed to possess a bewitching magic. Anyone who was the least bit careless would be dragged deeper and deeper into a dark abyss.

Cheng Yining and Lou Yumuo sat opposite the door on the same long sofa, and at this moment, Lou Yumuo was hugging Cheng Yining's arm, swaying and acting coquettishly.

She did not know what to say. Although she had been "married" to him for over four months, including tonight, they had only met two or three times in total. To her, he was a complete stranger.

I glanced at him as he casually pulled my hand and slowly slid a diamond ring onto my ring finger. He admired it for a moment, seemingly quite satisfied.

"Wasn't it to save you?" he blurted out in annoyance. Seeing her being bullied, he had intervened instinctively, only to find that she didn't need his help at all, and now he was being accused of meddling. How could he not be furious?

"Didn't I say already, they were messing around together and then started fighting. To pull them apart, I ended up dislocating my own arm. I am the victim here, why do you people keep badgering me?" Jiang Kairang frowned. This damned principal spent every single day meddling in his trivial troubles.

By now, the headquarters of the Evil Suppressing Alliance had been relocated here. The leader of the Evil Suppressing Alliance, the Exalted Lord, and others who managed the alliance's mundane affairs and maintained communication between the various sects all resided here.

"Eh?" Chen Feng was slightly startled as he noticed that several rooms in the courtyard below lacked windows and appeared completely sealed, save for simple doors.

Yet if they dared to harbor any other intentions, the moment they nodded and agreed to Chen Feng's terms would also be the exact moment when the Peak of White Snow, the City of Exploding Rocks, and the King's Battle City changed hands.

Before the heavy trucks even came to a complete halt, Big Huangya and the others immediately leaped off and sprinted toward the enemy aircraft parked on the runways. The planes stationed here included massive transport aircraft and bombers, as well as fighters. Big Huangya made a quick mental count, estimating there must be thirty or forty of them.

"Kong Sanqiu!" The villagers of Kong Town chimed in one after another. Kong Sanqiu's face flushed red, and seeing these uncles and elders talking back and forth with displeasure, he felt a bit more embarrassed.

The Furukawa conglomerate controlled the equivalent of twelve percent of Japan's gross national product, which was why it had gained entry into this highest-level meeting, and his words carried immensely heavy weight at this moment.

"Welcome, Star Lord! Long live the Star Lord, ten thousand years!" Inside the castle of light and shadow, everyone fell to their knees.

Jiang Kairang glanced at Yu Qian, who was lowering her head in shyness, feeling bewildered as to why she wasn't offering any explanation. What was the meaning of this?

Without the dazzling glare of lights, Zhang Hongcai's eyes could finally make things out, and naturally, he spotted the two burly, broad-shouldered men.

"Be quiet, all of you! This is not an illness; someone must be casting a technique!" Mei Terumi roared with a voice that drowned out everyone else. Although she was deeply worried inside, she was, after all, someone who had served as a Kage, and her insight into ninjutsu far surpassed amateurs like Teni or ninja like Haku, who only knew their own clan's secret techniques.

Dora said as he climbed up to the cave entrance and pushed against the giant boulder hidden behind. True to form, the massive boulder rocked back and forth extensively like a tumbler.
