Volume 1, Chapter 29: Arranging a Match for Duan Xiaoqiu

"Fellow Daoist Ling, just call me Brother Shen. I'll address you as brother. If there's anything you need, just say the word. As long as it's within my power, I'll handle it," Shen Fei said enthusiastically to Ling Duyu.

As the procession of referees moved forward, the citizens of Deonia sang hymns to the various gods, for more and more priests from different temples were being recognized by the crowds outside the arena.

"I'm afraid it's too late. It seems I must go on a killing spree today," the Fifth Elder said, his black hair burning like a raging fire, divine light radiating from his eyes.

"Speaking of that 'Enlightened One,' there have been quite a few rumors about him lately. I wonder what Young Master Feng thinks?" someone asked.

The pool water was dyed pitch black. After Ye Han slew the black flood dragon, a black-red orb of light emerged.

"Wait! Only print one copy. No more!" At this moment, Xu Tianfang suddenly shouted in an eerie tone.

Although fighting was forbidden within the Kunyuan Secret Realm, once one stepped outside, things might not be so peaceful. After all, if someone failed to obtain what they wanted within the realm, they would naturally resort to plundering the fortunes of others. Since this world was known as the Battlefield of Gods and Demons, the dangers inherent within were self-evident.

"Eh? This is quite a surprise. Everyone is actually home? Why have you all returned?" Li Cheng was truly stunned to see so many people present.

However, Xiao Yi did not stop. He flew to the depths of the valley, swinging his fist against a cliff face ahead.

Su Jianren pushed open the door and brought Song Tianji into the house. He had Song Tianji sit down first, then closed the door and pulled his wife into the inner room to whisper.

But Lin Tian was a man from Earth; he had only come to the world of cultivation for a holiday and planned to return to Earth after a few days of fun.

"How outrageous! A mere underworld official dares to ambush Lord Night Wanderer, the Underworld Commander. You deserve to be executed; your soul shall be scattered!" another ghost messenger chimed in, looking at me as if I were already a dead man.

Setting aside the two people in the courtyard who were growing fond of each other, Er Ya and her party had already arrived at the first destination of their journey.

Zhang Ye wore a cold sneer on his face. The moment he picked up the letter, he already knew it was poisoned.

Even though Zhang Yue thought Ye Xingchen was concocting pills blindly, she had to admit that his fire control was many times more refined than her own.

Ye Huan did not explain Peter's question. Regarding powers of the mental realm, apart from himself, only Lucifer could control such forces. Back at the Carroll Defense Line, Lucifer had pulled Ye Huan into an illusion and tampered with his memories, nearly turning him into a hollow shell.

Wei Tao’s greatsword continuously batted away the fiery meteors in the air. With a sweep of his blade, the aura of immortality filled the arena, faintly accompanied by the sound of surging rivers and crashing tides.

In an instant, all the swordsmen in the vicinity seemed to be injected with adrenaline; they all woke up and then, with loud splashes, jumped into the river one after another, as if searching for something.

So that was it. Song Tianji recounted the process of killing the Insect-man to Zong Reierfu. Upon hearing this, Zong Reierfu remained silent on the surface, but his heart was in turmoil. This Reinhardt was actually able to use a Divine-level skill. Although it was through a formation, the fact that he could execute it meant he was not far from the Divine realm himself.

With a master like Lin Tianlang holding back Reyiguli, Lin Mumu naturally did not forget to inform Yun Ting about the situation.

"Why, Captain Xuan, do you not want them? If you don't, could you give me two more?" Although Xuan Mo was stern and rarely smiled, he was actually delicate and gentle in nature. Everyone respected him but was not afraid of him, often joking around with him.

When electing the outstanding class cadre and the "Three-Good" student, Zhao Hui voted for Zhou Qiang every time. When Wu Jin collected the ballots, he picked them up, smiled, glanced at them, and placed them on top.

Hearing this, Ling Qingrui felt both amused and exasperated. These silver needles weren't even Tang Muning's; was it really appropriate for her to use Uncle Zhang's things as a gift for a first meeting?

"How did Mother Zhang know that Xiran and I had an argument yesterday?" Jin Yexuan asked calmly, frowning slightly.

"In fact, as we are only troops responsible for patrolling the outer city of the Dragon King's Holy City, we don't know the specific details of the incident either. I can only tell you all the information I have gathered as best as I can."

However, Dean Lin was helpless; he was not the one who truly made the decisions at Yanjing University. Professor Lin Wu's disturbance was not meant to signal his departure, but rather to make a statement—and the Dean was merely playing along to save face.

Liu Yu's hand, which had been gently stroking Wang Miaoyin's back, suddenly stopped. This was a question he could not answer.

In the end, it was Fang Tianyong who was the cunning one. He actually possessed some real skill, secretly swapping out the Buddha plate right under everyone's noses without anyone noticing.

While taking a shower, Yun Ting couldn't help himself and took the dazed Lin Mumu right under the spray.

Reminded by her, Jun Mochen finally recalled what had happened at the Prince of Nine's mansion. This matter was indeed a thorn in his heart. The attitude of the Lan Xing'er before him was completely different from before—how could he accept that so easily?

Xiao Wangzhi had assumed that after submitting this memorial, Hong Gong and Shi Xian would at least lose a layer of skin, even if they didn't die. He never expected Liu Shi to suppress the memorial and not even mention it during the court assembly.

Chen Hu cursed inwardly. Although he had thought of some special methods to successfully retrieve the supplies from the water, they carried significant risks, and without tools, it was not worth the gamble.

"Nabunosuke, it's me, it's me." The old man Okubo called out as he walked straight toward Motoyasu.

As Tsunade and Ling Yun, the primary physicians for Kakashi, both knew very well, the current seemingly calm situation was the most dangerous phase. The previous rejection reaction was indeed terrifying, but they had been well-prepared and could be said to have absolute certainty in helping Kakashi through that most difficult period.

"Xing'er!" Jun Moxi stepped forward and cautiously observed Lan Xing'er's facial expressions. Her eyebrows were relaxed and the corners of her mouth were turned up, which should count as being in a good mood, but why were those beautiful eyes constantly darting back and forth around him?

"If that is truly the case, then heaven is helping me!" Liu Bang said, somewhat pleasantly surprised. Deep down, he was still skeptical: regardless of what Han Xin was like, he had to keep Chancellor Xiao, so he still had to go along with him.

"I will not repeat myself. Since I have arrived here, no matter what happens, I will not let Ujizane touch a hair on the head of Takechiyo," Kazumasa said decisively before exiting.
