Chapter 68: The Cold Blade Unleashed

It was Merman You again.

The moment Zhou Bie told them that something had gone wrong at the camp, Qiao Ruyi's first intuition was that Merman You was behind it.

It wasn't just her who thought so; even Tao Jiang, while listening to Zhou Bie's description, couldn't help but chime in and say to her, "Merman You and Guyang City must be fundamentally incompatible, hitting a roadblock at every single turn."

Zhou Bie's description was extremely precise: from Merman You's mouth, what came through was a woman's voice.

So Tao Jiang asked further, "Merman..."

To pass the time, Ling Yun had no choice but to enter the system space to chat with the ring spirit and study the items within the space.

In Chen Sinan's eyes, the person sitting inside this cage was definitely himself, and this cage must be the method the Hundred Ghosts used to seal him away.

Ghost Ji's hands were injured by the fire-attribute true essence. She released her grip on Ling Yun and fell backward into the crystal coffin.

Before he could even see clearly, his lips were captured in a kiss, carrying the aura of battlefield conquests and bone-deep yearning. It lasted only a fleeting moment, yet felt as enduring as ten thousand lifetimes of devotion.

At the moment when Elder Xuan of the Dragon Squad was keeping everyone occupied and unable to spare a hand, they probably wouldn't be able to escape a nuclear weapon, would they?

"It's fine. Just listen to me when the time comes. You only need to wait on the battleship, and you won't need to worry about anything else!" Of course, Ziyun wasn't going to take him along for actual training; after all, he had only made a set of disposable lightning-defense equipment for each member of his team.

These three attacks essentially fused the cultivation levels of everyone present, and their sheer, terrifying might made one's blood run cold.

Who would have thought that the moment this pool of earth-fire essence touched the heavenly thunder on Su Fan's surface, it would actually erupt with a fierce, defiant resistance?

"It's fine, I won't be in danger. I'm a grown man, and I look so rugged besides; that Solang wouldn't possibly harbor any ideas about me," Xiao Chen said with a mischievous playfulness.

His teeth trembled slightly, but Chen Sinan didn't wail bitterly as he had just a moment ago. Instead, he had grown as calm and still as a pool of stagnant water.

"Lord Demon King, do you really want me to take them on a journey?" Vermouth walked over and asked.

Liu Mu knew Sun Kaiqi. The last time they crossed paths was at a dinner party organized by Lin Chenghan, and it was precisely because of that dinner party that Liu Mu got to know Du Zihao and Bai Shu, which in turn set off earth-shaking changes in Liu Mu's life.

"What?" I almost thought I misheard, but when I looked at Yuan Lei, she was also staring at Lü Buwei with an expression of sheer disbelief.

He suddenly realized that Yan Qi's feelings for him were no longer purely friendship, but an affection deeper and more intimate than friendship.

Naturally, though no enemy was in sight, everyone dared not lower their guard and began searching all around.

"No, if I let you go, you'll go and spread the word about what I've done. Won't I have nowhere left to run then? I've killed so many people, my only possible end is death," the old woman said, waving her hand dismissively.

Ignoring the surrounding onlookers and the complete loss of his dignity, Jun Jiuxin didn't care about saving face anymore; his sole priority right now was to coax the person before him into a good mood, or else his days ahead would become exceedingly difficult.

When I woke up, I saw Yuan Lei still fast asleep on the bed. I picked up the mirror I had placed by the bedside beforehand and took a look at myself. I was back, I had really come back.

The butterfly's wings were trembling slightly, and its eyes were rolling around, yet it showed no other reaction.

"That's right, my Lord Earl, you're supposed to issue these departure allowances before every military campaign. Surely you couldn't be unaware of even this!" the first deputy general retorted with a question.

Judging by his attire, his family should be quite well-off. He wore a scarf around his neck made of fine fabric, which was a rare sight in Dongguang County.

Upon entering the city, he was surprised to find many youthful faces that weren't there before, and the streets appeared much livelier than usual.

"Teacher Guo, the contestants don't seem to have any clue yet. If you were in their shoes, where would you start?" Susu asked casually.
