Chapter 116: Breaking the Formation

A flicker of astonishment passed through the man in black’s eyes; he never imagined that everything I said was true. The move I just used was none other than the long-lost Dugu Sword technique, a legendary skill among the Nine Great Clans of the old world. Though my cultivation has yet to reach its peak, it is enough to deal with traitors and betrayers.

The man in black turned pale with fright; he had already poisoned this place thoroughly.

...

Glass Heart spoke in her usual sharp and merciless style, yet even with that, the Holy Spirit descended and bore her temper with grace.

“How about it? If you can’t reach it, then have lunch with me,” Wang Kai said, gently shaking the lunchbox in his hand, his face soft with a tender smile. With his other hand, he naturally took Tao Hua’s hand and pulled her along.

After hearing the shopkeeper Nian’s lengthy explanation, Ye Tian nodded, abandoning the idea of going to the seaside now. Originally, after selling the snake skins today, Ye Tian had planned to join shopkeeper Aquin Nian to investigate the transport team’s affair by the sea, but now that it was past noon, it was no longer possible.

Zhenyi listened, nodding with some understanding, and Ye Junyi comforted her, speaking of sisterly harmony and such, finally letting the wet nurse take her back.

His hatred could be inflicted on her, but what about her pain? What could she do? When he used her wounds to hurt her, did he ever consider her suffering?

Moreover, what was Guitian Canghai’s reaction? And the three-day deadline I had agreed with Gao Jingquan would expire tomorrow—had he already found any trace of Ma Jing?

Xiahou Jie’s eyes narrowed upon seeing the sword—it was the Chiyan Sword, a sibling blade to his own Leng Shuang Sword. Though from the same school, the two were natural opposites, like fire and water, destined to clash. It seemed today was the day of confrontation.

After replying to Huakai Lingling that she would join the guild battle tonight, she then asked Miss Yuetie about the recent guild affairs. Following that, Lili went to the designated place to help Snow Elf run a dungeon.

A strange noise came suddenly, and Ye Tian spun around in alarm. From the ruins, several figures suddenly flew out and smashed against the cliffside, turning into a mass of flesh and blood. The last one leapt high into the sky, hurriedly landing, gasping for breath, looking utterly battered.

I tiptoed to the door to open it. “Don’t blame me for not warning you—this door’s bolt has a thousand-loop knot. If you don’t believe me, try it yourself,” he seemed to have anticipated my move.

Over time, this once rugged mountain range, under repeated and forceful convergence, had been flattened into a vast plain.

“Brother Hai, don’t be so anxious! Brother Su will be fine; there’s no use worrying now. Do you even know where he is?” Jiang Min comforted, ignoring that he was much older than Hai Feng, addressing him as Brother Hai. Hai Feng was momentarily stunned before Zhang Feng pulled him back into his seat.

“Damn!” Both the fifth and sixth brothers cursed simultaneously before rushing over to support Gao Yi.

The bandits of the Great Black Mountain numbered over three hundred. Why was the Zhao family village slaughtered this time? Was it a warning directed at me?

She began to regret that she hadn’t thought it through deeply before rushing so abruptly before him. She must have lost face utterly.

“Attack!” one of the guards barked sharply. Two experts at the Tribulation Crossing stage each struck with a palm, immediately enveloping the four men within their attack range.

“Yes, sir!” Lu Guansheng didn’t ask why Gao Yi needed money; he immediately handed over two hundred thousand with both hands.

Song Yunlong recognized the leader’s gesture and knew that he must want to keep his identity concealed, so he nodded in acknowledgment.

Wen Yin’s consciousness slowly began to return, yet her eyes remained tightly shut. A faint pain coursed through her body as her instincts gradually recovered.

“Heh! It’s natural. You can accept me only because of him; if you hadn’t been so obsessed with fate, I wouldn’t have waited so painfully, shoulder to shoulder with you, gazing at the moon,” the man laughed heartily but nodded firmly with a resolute expression.
