Chapter 54: Pearl Powder

After She Yuqi and Xiaoxiao finished their meal, they noticed Han Xiangxiang repeatedly glancing their way. Whenever She Yuqi looked over, Han Xiangxiang quickly averted her eyes. She Yuqi felt suspicious—what mischief was this person hiding?

Two cruise ships set off simultaneously. Yun Mo Yun, the elder, boarded the Song family’s vessel, where he chatted with Ying Jun and Song Niucha about ancient martial arts cultivation.

“If we joined forces at our peak, we’d have a sixty percent chance of success. Now, with my injuries and those of the Tree of the Gods still unhealed, our odds drop to forty percent. But if you can harness the Divine Map, our chances rise to eighty percent of subduing them,” the Tree of Life said with less than full confidence.

Meanwhile, the adversary’s eyes were veiled in confusion, unable to see, and was passively taking blows until his face became bruised and battered.

Everyone nodded in agreement. Those gathered in the hall all shared the same thought: they did not believe Long Feiyun was a murderer. Yet where was he now? Why had he suddenly vanished? One question after another loomed large in their minds.

“Enlightened Beast. I never imagined such a high-level soul beast would exist on the Outer Continent. Truly rare,” remarked the elder in a black robe trimmed with gold. He barely glanced at Chu Yuntian, who was only at the third realm of Soul Sovereign, then fixed his gaze entirely on the Enlightened Beast, now transformed into human form.

As thousands of souls from the cycle of reincarnation were scattered by the Wheel of Rebirth conjured by Chu Ge, these souls quickly regenerated and approached Chu Ge’s soul body, launching fierce spiritual attacks.

“You’re courting death!” At the moment Chu Ge closed in, Juedouzi infused the power of his divine core completely into his palms, locking the space around Chu Ge’s body. With a single palm strike, he aimed to repel Chu Ge.

Situ Hao’s mouth twitched. Could it be that all his previous rejections were because of this?

Diao Chan gently touched the soil, as if sensing the lingering scent of Xu Jiang, the sinner who brought him into this world to suffer—the faithless man responsible for her mother’s untimely demise. This coward who never came to see his child even in death. Clenching her fists tightly, she slowly knelt before the tombstone.

Long Feiyun’s bright, star-like eyes gleamed as he smiled faintly. “Now that Nangong Aoxue has arrived, I believe the batch of gold has been found, correct?” he asked, directing the question to Nangong Aoxue.

Of course, in terms of stardom, Mu Bai was still far ahead. Now, all his attention was fixed on his phone, a device developed by Zenith Star Corporation—no wonder he valued it so highly.

“President, the factory has already ceased production. If we let them in, won’t our exposure be inevitable? Then our products…” Wang Ling whispered anxiously.

Ellis was not a weak link, but against White Chocolate Williams, Ellis, a determined Black player, aggressively drove into the paint and scored off the backboard once again.

Two men were easily dealt with by Lin Chen. From the dying words of one, Lin Chen pinpointed the exact location.

The third son of the Shen family was formidable in the Northeast; no one dared provoke the region’s top young master.

Stewards from the four Outer Gate islands had been summoned. They were ordered to register returning disciples, care for the injured, and wait for the Inner Gate alchemists to administer treatment.

In an instant, countless questions flooded Zong Nan’s mind, but he forcibly suppressed his curiosity. It was best not to probe too much about someone like Ling Tian, a reclusive master, lest he cross a line and incur their wrath.
