Chapter 29: A Moment of Respite

Hearing the tone of blame in Qin Cang’s words, Ye Lintian’s expression suddenly turned cold.

"What does fellow Daoist Qin mean by this? Are you perhaps blaming me, the Commander?"

Sensing the shift in Ye Lintian’s tone, Qin Cang realized that Ye Lintian was not his subordinate. Realizing this, the expression on his face softened quickly, and his tone took on a hint of apology.

...

Duyuan stood among the ruins and said, "Senior Nine-Claws!" The morning dawn had already arrived, yet the yellow-robed elder had vanished.

All three knew that while they were protected by sect artifacts and would not perish, dancing before two great masters was akin to playing with life and death. They feared it might leave behind hidden injuries that would be difficult to mend, potentially severing their chances of ascending to higher realms in the future.

"Senior is, of course, excellent. Why would I dare to cast judgment on a senior?" Duyuan looked at the slightly cynical senior before him. Those sharp, spirited eyes were proof enough of everything, not to mention that this was a cultivation senior who had brought Shen Yuerou to his side.

The status and position of Wu Xiangtao needed no elaboration. As a key expert and senior scholar, if it were not his night shift, it would be almost impossible for him to return to the hospital after hours, let alone be this anxious.

Teacher Tang led the two to the Type-C robot storage room, only to see Lin Moxi squatting at the entrance, smoking, despite the fact that smoking was prohibited within headquarters.

The two officers let out a low shout and drew their blades to meet the challenge. Unfortunately, no matter how brave those two were, their skills were ultimately just standard battlefield techniques; compared to Bai Lian, a high-ranking disciple of Xu Ziyang, they were far inferior. Their blades had barely swung out when they discovered that their enemy had already vanished from before their eyes.

I hurriedly tried to keep my composure. Before long, my vision returned to normal, and Zhang Xing confirmed that my eyes had changed back, which finally put me at ease.

They did not see that at this moment, Chen Lin waved to his teammates who were closing in, signaling them to drop a gun on the ground for him.

Duyuan then said, "From now on, your Yunhe Peak shall take the lead in protecting the safety of the people!" Yunhe Peak, with five thousand disciples, held the second-greatest strength in the sect.

...

The vast majority of them had long surpassed the peak of the King realm. Suddenly deprived of their restrictions, if they did not timely suppress the surging power of the Heavenly Melody, they would likely explode and die.

That zombie had been struck by lightning, and having not been dead for long, it possessed a trace of consciousness—meaning it had become a spirit. It understood how to think slightly rather than constantly satisfying its own appetite, making such an existence even more difficult to deal with.

"En!" Having said that, he allowed his soul power to penetrate the Star Soul Tomb as he had before. Upon arriving inside, he was astonished to discover that it was not just his soul that had entered; his physical body had also arrived here along with his soul.

From being designated at thirty to officially inheriting the position of clan leader at forty, his task during these ten long years was to completely fuse the Heavenly Pattern Karmic Fire with his own body, reaching a point where he could command it at will.

The entire Demon race might fall into chaos, and by then, they would be unable to cooperate with one another. The problem would only spread and worsen, which was not something Li Tian wanted to see.

Recently, the number of people entering and leaving the Mingluo Mountain Range would certainly increase. To avoid unnecessary trouble, these concealment measures were essential.

A sharp shout from Hong Zhuang caused the murderous Kui Xiong to abruptly halt the sword he was about to use to slay Lin Han.

However, since there were many people present, it was not the time to talk. He gave his sons a look and then led them off to socialize.

Many people recorded Mo Yi’s current situation, as well as the information from his previous battle with Hulk. News stations broadcasted reports of Mo Yi’s heroic deeds at every moment.

He Chang straightened his clothes and said, "Then I will return to the base first. Send a message to the Doctor and notify him to prepare to help me lift the self-detonation critical point. After that, I will go to the Lingle Grand Canyon alone. Just send Nikola Tesla’s documents to my room; that will be more time-efficient."

After the beginning of spring, Emperor Zhao Yuan issued an edict to announce the victory in the Northwest to all provinces and counties, ordering compensation for the families of the officers and soldiers who had sacrificed their lives for the country. Yanbian City had received the order long ago, and the garrison officials had copied and posted it all over the city. The people of Yanbian City went from heated discussion to indifference.

"Since it has been found, I shall immediately head to Zhaoge to bring Lei Zhenzi back."

Wan Ying’s mouth opened even wider! Looking at the handsome man before her, Young Master? What Young Master? What kind of master?

"But how did you discover it? Just by sensing? How far a distance can you sense?" He Chen asked.

...

At this time, everyone was busy fleeing for their lives. People from various departments were mixed together, and no one could hear anyone else.

Han Cheng did not bring any guards, for he believed that within the Han residence, the Zhou family would not dare to take any extraordinary action against him.

The cavalry’s charge was quite terrifying. Even after being slowed down by the ice wall, they continued to push He Chen for nearly a hundred meters with undiminished force, until He Chen exerted his strength once more, planting his feet firmly into the ground, and forcibly brought the warhorse to a halt.

An hour later, Zhuang Fengjun had completed her transformation. After Lin Ping told Zhuang Fengjun that there was food in the cafeteria, he left.

Having just finished his cultivation, Liu Zhuanyi felt his body brimming with energy, his bulging muscles captivating. The rumbling of his stomach was incessant. As his realm climbed, Liu Zhuanyi’s appetite increased significantly. If an ordinary person needed a few copper coins' worth of ingredients for a meal, Liu Zhuanyi needed a silver tael’s worth.

Initially, when Wang Hao first posted the news about acquiring materials, a portion of people did not believe it.

Wu Qing put on her oversized dark glasses, pulled her hat down, looked at herself in the full-length mirror, and adjusted her posture, feeling satisfied. Two bodyguards were already waiting at the door—both were six-foot-three giants, one of whom was an Eastern European man with a thick beard and blue eyes.

The Demon Crow General left with the Weiyang Iron Guards. Before he left, Alice had already set out for the City of Contracted Demons via manifestation.

On June 30th, Lu Yuanfang and Chen Qiyu participated in the interviews for provincial party and government agency units together. Regarding Lu Yuanfang’s self-destructive approach, Chen Qiyu found it extremely laughable.

Simply put, they would determine the strength and specialties of the participating athletes from these countries based on their profiles, thereby setting corresponding tactics and competition events.

I thought about it; using a person as bait seemed a bit risky, so I had everyone retreat first. I pricked my finger and walked along the ground, dripping blood with every step.
