Volume 1, Chapter 39: The Gift Sent by Xie Yizhe

Could he not bear to disappoint Yun Qianqian, yet he was willing to let Jiang Yutang down?

Jiang Huai'an was utterly shocked.

He never expected Xie Yihe to be so cold and ruthless that he was unwilling to even fulfill Jiang Yutang's meager display of filial piety.

Could it be that in his eyes, even his mother-in-law, the Marchioness of Zhenyuan, was less important than Yun Qianqian?

Seeing this, Guo Laonian and Guo Jingzheng wore looks of astonishment and hurriedly tried to persuade me to stay, but I gave them no such opportunity, pulling Zhou Jin straight out of the courtyard.

However, his cultivation realm was still too weak at present. Without the aid of some powerful weapons, he wouldn't even be able to deal with Blood Luo's Blood Demon Battle Body.

Under my command, everyone took out their shamanic drums, put on shamanic masks, and began to chant prayers.

"Thank you for still being able to think of me in a situation like this." Song Zhenying's expression softened considerably.

Although Eldest Sister's words sounded extremely polite, hearing them felt like swallowing a housefly—utterly revolting.

It could be said that techniques treasured by top-tier factions, regardless of whether they were complete or fragmented, were invariably at the very pinnacle of esoteric arts, merely a step away from entering the Dao.

However, when the third pill flame ignited, Zhao Chen stopped. At this moment, the consumption and generation of spiritual energy had reached a precise balance.

That way, even if I were to encounter others in the feng shui circle, they would not be able to immediately tell whether I was a feng shui master.

Only upon reaching the fifth realm—the All-Encompassing Realm—where the power of the divine soul undergoes another sublimation, could one barely manage to linger in the mortal world.

"Eldest Senior Brother, I witnessed this with my own eyes, so it is absolutely not false. Furthermore, I have already invited that reclusive master to our Wind and Cloud Sect, and I hope Eldest Senior Brother will come with me to pay him a visit."

Such injuries could hardly be described as anything less than severe. Fortunately, the Great Evolution Creation Scripture circulated continuously, slowly repairing his body. Yet his skin remained riddled with countless holes; the wounds inflicted by sword qi, shattered by heavy punches, and pierced by sharp blades still displayed horrifying, mangled flesh.

"Could it be that Mirror Peak is the passageway back to the Upper Realm?" Yilian knew nothing of the Beast Domain, so she could only guess thus.

Everyone in the deep valley felt a sense of imminent peril. Had it not been for a sheer force of will sustaining them, they would likely have collapsed under this unprecedented pressure.

He placed a call to Du Ruguang, who instructed him to suggest to Lu Pengfei that Chen Shaodong's position be adjusted, hoping the Provincial Department would take the matter into consideration.

The two of them walked over to a large boulder. Feng Xinyao wiped it clean with a tissue, and then she and Ye Pingyu sat down upon the stone.

For someone from the Pill Sect to arrive at a time like this—needless to say, Qin Liang must have tipped them off. However, he probably did not yet know the news of Dan Fengsheng's death; otherwise, the people from the Pill Sect would not have presented their calling cards with such courtesy.

Following the final bouts, Fifth Zheng defended his title as champion from the previous tournament, with Wenren Tian taking second, Tong Qiufang third, Zisang Xinyou fourth, and Gonghu Li ranking last.

Yueying deeply suspected that Mo Xibai had long since surpassed all limits; otherwise, how could he fail to sense his actual cultivation level?

"What's wrong?" Chen Qifan, who was in the next room, heard the commotion here and hurried over to the doorway to ask with concern.

Upon seeing Ye Jinmo's words, Lin Yanchu's heart, which had been hanging by a thread all this time, finally settled.

Whether out of a guilty conscience or not, the moment Jin Yun's words fell, Jin Jianshi's cries and wails of pain came to an abrupt halt. He merely gnashed his teeth, his eyes filled with resentment.

In the temporary command post, after calling out for so long without receiving any response, Xu Yang could not help but think that this special operations team sent out to carry out the assassination mission had also been wiped out by the government troops.

Le Town was in such chaos, overrun by bandit strongholds and riddled with pillaging and slaughter everywhere, yet no army came to suppress the bandits. The intricacies behind this ran deep indeed.
