Chapter 66
"What a strange fellow..." Luo Xiu slowly removed his hand from the sword hilt and continued walking deeper into the labyrinth, while Heathcliff, who had just left, reappeared precisely at the spot where Luo Xiu had been standing moments before.
Wang Zichen pushed Chen He away with a look of utter disdain, casting a contemptuous glance at him as he said, "As you yourself said, buddy is skyrocketing in popularity right now, so where would I have the time to go dining with a character like you?" Chen He's face froze.
Although he had just stepped forward to speak up for Liu Jing, seeing that a fight was about to break out, anxiety began to gnaw at him. He had barely trained in martial arts and was not a fighter; he worried that if a brawl ensued, he would lose face in front of Liu Jing.
At that moment, Feng Lihen froze in sheer astonishment. He never expected his own imperial father to launch a sneak attack on the Sovereign of the God Clan, Nangong Qing, and to do so right in front of so many members of the God Clan. Could his father also be attempting to disrupt the God Clan's Heaven-Worship Ceremony?
They were no fools; they could tolerate watching Wang Yun driven to vomit blood in rage by Liu Xin, but they could never stand by and watch Liu Xin instigate Liu Xie to depose Wang Yun.
Seeing himself dragged into Qiyao's remark, Tohka tilted her head and looked at Kotori. Although she could not understand what they were discussing, judging by Qiyao's expression, it felt like a grave matter.
Luo Xiu muttered inwardly that whether he was being harassed or not had nothing to do with her, as she was not his mother. However, seeing Erica's less-than-pleasant complexion, he hesitated for a moment and kept those infuriating words to himself.
"Envoy Zhu, I would like to ask, where on earth did your ten million troops from Goguryeo come from?" Liu Zhe asked after finally managing to stifle his laughter.
"I simply refuse to believe it. There's a chance for it to trigger, right? I'll draw a few hundred talismans, and I refuse to believe my luck is so abysmal that not a single one will succeed!" Tang San grew stubborn, pulling out a large stack of blank talismans and drawing them one after another.
Behemoth's Violate, Star of Heavenly Isolation, had been dispatched under Pandora's instructions to monitor Luo Xiu. Her ability to blend into shadows made her far harder to detect than others, yet after such prolonged observation, Violate had failed to uncover any action by Luo Xiu that was detrimental to the Underworld army.
Olynyk was clearly utterly bewildered as well. His intentional foul was originally meant to prevent Yi Yang from scoring. Now, not only had he failed to stop the basket, but he had also conceded a traditional three-point play.
This pagoda possessed a total of nine tiers, each glowing with a distinct hue that represented the power of a divine spirit. The archaic and primordial auras blended together, their profound and vast grandeur deeply shaking Han Bing's soul.
"It's just that I helped him out, and to show his gratitude, he invited me to dinner. It doesn't count as a date." Jifang knew that Yeying was feeling hurt inside, so she deliberately spoke in this comforting manner.
"Bazi, if he really isn't here, then pulling this stunt means we've wasted a massive amount of time." Although Liu Ban harbored some concerns, he still began searching section by section as Bazi had instructed.
Their performance in the domestic summer split had practically sent fans and spectators both at home and abroad into a frenzy. Calls for the restoration of the dynasty were already gaining overwhelming momentum across the internet, making it seem as though BF might reclaim the throne and raise their royal banner at any moment.
Ke Han followed suit in a daze, unable to make sense of the situation. He recalled how fiercely Ma Changfa had risked his life earlier to shield him and fight the masked man, yet now, the man was kneeling before him and pleading for the adversary's forgiveness.
"I'm telling you to focus. Aren't you worried that your cultivation has remained stagnant for so long?" Han Bing asked.
Liu An tossed the paper airplane out with absolute confidence, never expecting that due to his poor craftsmanship, the folded jet would fail to travel any distance, plunging straight to the ground the moment it left his hand.
By the end of his explanation, he had not only detailed airplanes but even described airborne apparatuses such as hot air balloons and gliders. A brilliant light flashed in the Sixth Prince's eyes! Hearing what Liu An had described, he became filled with absolute faith in soaring into the skies.
By comparison, the bottom-lane duo of the opposing qu team, who had been forcefully driven back to base, appeared far more wretched. Upon returning to the lane, due to their deficit in levels, they found it difficult even to secure minion waves.
At that moment, Jiang Chen, who had been standing to the side with a cold gaze, made his move. Gritting his teeth, he swung his right hand and slashed cleanly through the arm of the figure that was gripping Liu Yingwei's throat.
Turning around abruptly, he caught sight of Lin Chen's somewhat lecherous expression. Unable to help herself, Jiang Xinying furrowed her pretty brows and spoke up.
Chu Yun stared in utter shock at the charred energy storage crystal. At that moment, time seemed to stand still for him, and had the thermal-scorch ray gun not been searingly hot, Chu Yun might have remained in a daze even longer.
Walking through the pitch-black darkness for roughly ten minutes, he heard the faint sound of babbling water ahead, accompanied by gentle gusts of a breeze that softly brushed against him.
Some people recognized the extraordinary nature of that heart, yet remained ignorant of its origin and power, which only made them all the more terrified of the mysterious Ares.
Xina, who had claimed she was going back to sleep, suddenly materialized out of thin air right beside Chamberlain's corpse.
"Damn it, something is wrong!" Chu Yun abruptly stood up and sprinted in the direction where his instincts told him danger lurked.
If such a situation were to arise, would he truly possess the ruthlessness to completely annihilate them?
"Xiang Yin, have you forgotten what a mess you were beaten into during the newcomer examination? If it weren't for Xu Tianjiao, I would have beaten you black and blue all over the floor back then," Xiaoyue said without a shred of politeness.
Lang Ji held the broken Meng blade in her hands, inspecting it closely as if it were a priceless treasure. Unexpectedly, Yu Qiuyan lunged forward, snatched the blade away, kicked off fiercely with her foot, and instantly flipped backward.
In the courtyard, Li Tianyou was also being crushed terribly by that azure radiance, forced back to the very edge of the barrier. It was likely that before long, Tan Long wouldn't even need to lift a finger; once Li Tianyou's inner Qi was completely exhausted, he would be ground into dust by that cyan beam.
