Chapter 23

"Phew, Erlang, did you hear that sound just now? It sounded like the Great Crab Immortal." The man on the left exhaled after a long pause, his face pale, his voice lingering with fear.

Jiang Nan’s eyes twitched. Something so secretive that it couldn't even be known to anyone? What kind of matter could it possibly be?

A doll exactly like this one only costs eighty yuan at the supermarket outside! How many times is the markup?

While everyone was lost in their own thoughts, Hua Ziye's mother arrived gracefully and sat in the area designated for the Hua family. She looked far off toward the Ye family’s area, but it remained empty.

Of course, regardless of whether it was stage one, two, or three, it all referred to events happening on a digital planet. Countless digital planets are like countless servers, born and destroyed endlessly alongside the players' game progress.

They hadn't gone far before the carriage gradually came to a stop; it turned out the horses pulling it could no longer hold up.

Suddenly, the large screen vanished. "What's going on?" Lan Mengqi watched her surroundings nervously.

A flicker of painful memory rippled across her brow, only to vanish into nothingness in the blink of an eye.

The ghostly light seemed to have found its source, whistling toward Mu Tian like moths to a flame. It surged entirely into his consciousness. The Taiji Diagram had never suffered such a devastating blow; in an instant, it was shattered into pieces.

Sun Shaozu dined with Yingchun, and afterward, they copied scriptures together in the ancestral hall.

"Because we suspect the perpetrator is a local, they should be very familiar with the local surveillance. It won't be easy to find direct evidence. This counts as a new breakthrough," You Nanxing said.

Although Hong Yi had spotted Feng Ning and the others, they had not noticed him. Because Hong Yi did not want to cause unnecessary trouble, he was in a well-concealed position, hard to detect without careful searching.

A violent wind swept through, and a fist slammed into the man in black. He let out a miserable scream as his body flew backward, crashing heavily onto the ground.

Watching his master's benevolent gaze, Murong Xiu choked with sobs, unable to help but tremblingly bow his head to make it easier for his master to reach.

Likewise, if a soul master were to explode and die from absorbing a 420-year soul ring, no one would ever know, making it impossible to refute the theory.

He had never met Northern Qiaofeng, but he knew of the man's deeds. Comparing the two, he knew that the opponent's internal energy and martial arts were nowhere near such a level.

She stayed quietly to one side, a faint smile on her face. She showed not a hint of surprise from beginning to end, even nodding with a smile when Chen Sisi glanced over intentionally or otherwise.

Since there were only two scenes left to film, Lu Yanyan had long since entered the state of the play, and she was acting opposite the male lead and Liu Piaopiao.

"Due to previous data corruption, we are currently only at eight percent. Our team's data analyst is absent, which has a significant impact on our progress. The rest still requires the scouts to continue exploring and transmitting data back," the modeler beside him replied.

There was a Changzai they encountered who was always bullying others—Consort Jin, who relied on her connection to the Empress in the palace to wreak havoc on everyone.

Cheng Pu had arrived a bit too late after all. Facing the W-ability strafing of Meng Sun Linglong, Gongsun Zan, who lacked his R-ability, truly couldn't handle it. He didn't even last two seconds with a third of his health remaining. By the time Cheng Pu jumped out and unleashed his R-ability at Meng Sun Linglong, Gongsun Zan had already been mowed down into a corpse.

"Fellow Daoist Xuanyuan, you are a top-tier existence in this realm; you should maintain some of the composure of a master. While Fellow Daoist Yin-Yang’s methods are somewhat inappropriate, he is doing it for the good of our Hanhai Cultivation World!" The one mediating was Cheng Siwei, the Supreme Elder of the Five Elements Sect.

"At the very least, my life is mine to command." Feng Tian Dijun raised the sword in his hand and stabbed it fiercely into his own chest.

Jiang Chen couldn't spare the time to worry about the spirit monkey; he arrived at the crystal pillar and discovered that what he had seen was merely the tip of the iceberg—there were even more crystals beneath the rock wall.

The company's development had reached a bottleneck, and the e-sports circle was a good choice. Since the game *Dream of the Three Kingdoms* was so popular now, as long as they could pull together a top-tier team, it would be a guaranteed profit in this industry. Thinking of this, Liu Xin glanced again at the photo frame on the table, which held a picture of her and her younger brother from ten years ago.

If things went poorly, she might not even be able to keep her position as president in the future. She was forty-five years old this year, and her entire life had been spent in online game development. If she left games—the industry she was most familiar with—she truly didn't know what else she could do.

The White Tiger was afraid and angry, but it did not know how to resist because of its deep-rooted obedience to its master.

His face was deathly pale, his eyes wide and staring blankly at her in trembling terror, stuttering in shock.

Strong individuals can destroy the world, and they can also reshape it. For example, a collapsed mountain can be rebuilt into a new one using a single earth-attribute secret technique.

Although the illusion-array beast had Foundation Establishment cultivation, it was, after all, evolved from an illusion array—high in cultivation, but short in insight. The "Ten-Step Array" was precisely its weakness. Using one’s own strengths to attack the enemy’s shortcomings is the best strategy.

"At this point, does it make any difference whether I say it or not?" Joffrey replied, clutching his wound. Since Regnar had already come here, he must have assumed that he, Joffrey, was the one who did it, so what was the point of answering?

Ye Xiran only heard that delicate, sobbing sound coming from the phone before she wiped all desire from her face, pushed Zhou Hanyan away, and sat up.

Old Xiang had been there since the old master of the Zhou family founded the company, and he held a great deal of prestige when speaking in front of the Zhou family relatives.

"No, if you don't let us stand up as the clan leader, we will absolutely not rise." Both elders knelt stubbornly on the floor. Given Ye Feng's current strength, there was indeed nothing they could do about him.

"In any case, it’s because your design wasn't good enough; otherwise, how could he have looked down on it?" Jiao Yuning gritted his teeth and said.

"Why did you come here?" Regnar asked the man while taking the opportunity to look for a suitable dueling ground with Joffrey.

For some time, every time there was a body to collect, he was the one who contacted Chen Yi, and the vouchers the Law Enforcement Bureau paid to Chen Yi were also issued through his hands.

The slow-moving onlookers from just a moment ago had been cruelly slaughtered by the Red Flame Blade Demon. Yet, this demon was now burying its head between its legs and weeping? It was no longer the murderous fiend from a moment before.

Neither he nor Brother Yi had a father, so they naturally never celebrated Father's Day and had no concept of the holiday.
