Volume One, Chapter 112: A Mistaken Entry

A deafening roar echoed as the black aura instantly dissipated, and the mysterious figures collapsed to the ground like puppets with severed strings.

"Very well, let us swear by the witch’s incantation to the Three Divine Ladies," she said, the first to form the hand seals.

In truth, the young lady did not know much and had never intended to expose her employer. But upon learning of his betrayal, the driver refused to comply. Taking a desperate gamble, he secretly copied the employer’s most crucial data USB drive, using it as leverage to demand their release.

“I haven’t thought of anything concrete yet. Could you help me find out where Xu Jiayou is buried? I want to pay my respects,” I requested of Bo Qing, who readily agreed.

By the time Ning Zian finished tidying the kitchen, night had fallen, and they had already lit oil lamps early.

Leaping across the stream, I arrived behind the waterfall and discovered, just as expected, a cavern more than three meters wide concealed there. A powerful surge of water gushed forth from within, intensifying the waterfall’s flow, yet from outside, the entrance remained invisible.

I am now not only the largest supplier on the War God Continent but also the greatest partner of the Magician’s Association.

With this decree issued, all soldiers of the Heavenly Dragon Army and officials from various regions immediately withdrew. Only Lin Xiaotian and the old Taoist remained inside the White Tiger Hall.

Su Nian’an wore a bracelet that concealed the purplish bruise. Instead of squeezing onto the bus, she hailed a taxi straight to the company. Upon pushing open the door, she was met with burning gazes from everyone inside, making her feel utterly uncomfortable.

She had just escaped that vicious circle, yet it seemed she was about to walk right back in. Resting her head on his shoulder, her fingers traced small circles on his chest. Qin Muchen, what should she do? Why had everything turned so awry recently, all piling up at once?

“An’an, but you were so reluctant just now,” he murmured, his finger gliding over her lips with a teasing smile in his eyes. The memory of that embarrassing moment flashed in An Nianchu’s mind, though it was night, people were nearby.

“For example?” The first two words were spoken by the tall man standing before Chen Junyi; the last two came from behind him.

Yun Meijun’s face flushed again, yet her burning gaze remained fixed unwaveringly on Qin Xiao, filled with hopeful anticipation.

On their way here, the Seventh Elder had emphasized that Qin Zhongyu was being bullied by members of the Qin household, instructing them to stand up for him and teach the Qin family a proper lesson. They were also to bring Qin Zhongyu back. No matter how unscrupulous or shameless Qin Zhongyu was, he was still the Seventh Elder’s own nephew.

This was no mere sparring between martial artists; this was a battle between cultivators.

“Is forced marriage still a thing? Who exactly is that family?” Ning Hao frowned deeply.

“What I want or don’t want doesn’t matter—it’s what you want. You want me not to think about it? That might work, but you have to agree to one condition first,” Han Bing surprisingly bargained. Xiao Tian thought Han Bing was quite bold indeed. If she pushed her too far, she might not be able to hold back her fists.

Chen Peng and Jiang Zhou strode before Qin Xiao with satisfied smiles, their killing intent instantly enveloping them like a cloak.

The disciples from various sects regained their composure and looked at Xiao Fan with different eyes than before. The outer disciples showed some fear, but many of the inner disciples’ eyes gleamed coldly.

The first challenge, naturally, was the instability of his “Yuan,” his impure body—a fact he had long known.

Within the Bloodfire Dragon Palace, a middle-aged man clad in crimson armor knelt solemnly. He was Chang Ziwu, a Bloodfire Dragon General. Each Dragon God commands a thousand Dragon Guard soldiers, including ten Dragon Generals. Each Dragon General possesses power at the Heavenly Origin realm, and commands one hundred Dragon Guard soldiers.
