Chapter 141: Seventh Grade Intermediate

“Hmm? It’s quiet now?”

Ye Cheng had assumed that Ling Xiaoyue was about to sit up in bed and kill him, but after waiting for a long while, he received no response. The only sound was the faint snoring coming from the bed.

“Damn! You scared me half to death.” Ye Cheng did not even dare retrieve his clothes. He hurriedly fled.

He passed through the corridor and arrived at Zhu’er’s room.

……

“Senior Feng, how is Senior Brother Han?” Li Xiner asked as she looked at Han Shiye, who had already regained consciousness. Unsure of the situation, she could only ask.

As for the villagers, with the old clan chief present, they would not say much. After all, they were all members of the Jiang family. How could they possibly take the side of an outsider?

Relics were much like dungeons that people formed parties to explore. Even if the authorities tried to suppress them completely, people would still secretly investigate them. It would be better to establish a system of regulation and taxation, thereby dividing and controlling those tomb raiders. Well, perhaps “tomb raiders” sounded a little too harsh. Calling them amateur archaeologists unrecognized by the authorities would probably feel much more acceptable.

I hurriedly told her to wait for me at the entrance on the first floor, where there was a stone pedestal, and went to find her.

Gu An’an offered a brief explanation. She did not ask what had happened, but since the outcome was already like this, the process no longer seemed particularly important.

He had not told Ye Hexuan the truth. The rear courtyard where he trained had been personally chosen by Mu Qingge, and could be considered a secret base.

After considering his wording for several seconds, Xiao Boran raised his head and said, “It’s like this, Madam. Recently, I was thinking of planting several more Hongmeng trees in the rear courtyard.”

Lynn was truly fortunate. If not for the Black Grail—a being whose status was at least on the angelic level—suppressing everything else for him, then given the reckless speed of his advancement, he would probably have begun suffering from the instability of his spirituality long ago.

Because people had grown accustomed to it, no one specifically bothered to intervene. They felt it was nothing serious. What was wrong with being poor? This world lacked many things, but it certainly did not lack poor people.

Now that things had been said to this extent, failing to charge forward behind the commander would amount to disobeying orders. They could hardly call themselves soldiers. Besides, Lynn possessed a superweapon. If they truly could not break through, he would probably call down a Lightning Storm. At that point, it no longer mattered what happened to the officers and soldiers. They might as well charge forward with him.

After dinner, Madam Song returned home alone, but left Song Yuwei at the Ning residence. She said she would let the girl play there for a couple of days and send someone to collect her later.

To a greater or lesser extent, they appeared one after another along the area nearest the very edge of the tower platform. Counting them carefully, there were more than seventy or eighty in all.

With the support of his cane, Gu Zhengze was finally able to walk with considerably less difficulty. At last, he fulfilled his wish and stepped out through the Lin family’s gate.

With the assistance of the Seven Treasures Glazed Pagoda, the attacks of the two Wolf Battle Spirit Masters from the Seven Treasures Glazed Sect were each increased by twenty percent. Yet when their blows struck Bibi Dong’s bone spines, all they felt was an immense force of recoil surging through their hands. The two instinctively retreated.

That evening, in the living room of the Chen family villa, Chen Mingyu was discussing with Chen Jingmin their trip to Hangzhou the day after tomorrow.

Jiang Heng guessed that certain monster skills were exclusive abilities specifically tailored to individual monsters, and could not be dropped for humans to use.

As far as the university was concerned, the security guards would not bother you even at this hour, let alone later at night.

Among the Heaven Dou imperial entourage, Emperor Xue Ye did not seem to have come in person. Instead, he had sent an envoy.

Chen Xueqing had been at home all day. The moment Chen Xuan began streaming, she entered the room. When she saw Chen Xuan singing one of her own songs, delight spread across her brows, but it was soon replaced by a look of disappointment.

In the past, when facing someone like Fang Xiaoyuan, a martial artist in the early Spirit Vein Realm, he had been able only to evade him. Now, however, he could confront such an opponent head-on. Even if he could not defeat him, the other man could no longer keep him there.

“Just now, everyone thought it was merely singing, and this is a school, so no one was on guard. Otherwise, people with strong mental power should still be able to resist the sleep effect. You’ll understand once you try it yourself later.” Li Mu looked at the approaching security force in the distance, feeling deeply irritated.
