Chapter 16

With this relentless assault, the particle shield of the Road Army would shatter in less than three seconds, for the meteor shower’s damage was simply overwhelming.

After Ge Gen’s death, the remaining warriors of the Grey Collar Tribe, battered and terrified, turned their backs to the enemy, suffering even greater losses. Few returned to the Grey Collar Tribe, and the sight of their defeat left the tribe’s members in stunned silence.

“Get him out of here quickly!” The words were spoken with utmost disdain, as if shooing away a beggar from the doorstep.

“Tell me what you’ve been doing all this time.” Ronald held Lingling in his arms, and with a quick motion, produced a fragrant pear fruit from his spatial ring, offering it to her.

Delis squinted, watching the scene unfold before him, his shock rendering him speechless.

Wang Yuanlan voiced her worries—her concern was that once these few left, the sect of the Way in Beijiang City would be left empty, inevitably inviting ridicule from their peers.

Zhao Xiongfei didn’t know where the Wild Dragon had found the means, but he had somehow brought Ghost Lord here. From what Zhao understood, Ghost Lord was a more advanced vampire. Low-level vampires merely drank blood and lacked much intelligence, but Ghost Lord was clearly different—possessing high intellect.

Xue Hao used his clairvoyant eyes to survey, focusing all his shamanic power into his gaze to counter the ominous aura emanating from the villa, eventually revealing a far more terrifying vision.

However, the lightning mages were an exception. Except for a few, most lightning sorcerers held but one faith: Zeus, the Thunder God. While they could coexist with other elemental mages, they were relentless in striking down enemies, even more fanatical than the followers of the Sea God.

Before Hu Lili’s eyes appeared a street, and across from her, a signboard reading “Masked Bar” shimmered with neon lights in the night.

Zhang Qing, seeing Fei Yingdong chasing after, felt a surge of joy. Secretly, he took out a pebble, clenching it in his palm. As Fei drew closer, the pebble flew from his hand.

“Don’t talk about your shabby shop, always neglecting your duties,” Director Wang said with a look of disdain.

In the entire Jiang family, no one except the elderly master who loved orchids knew that this particular orchid, carefully tended to, had been bought by the old man at a cost of tens of thousands.

An Sheng, having the original owner’s memories, was in no rush to check the owner’s phone. Now recalling it, she picked it up from the bedside table and paused to browse through it.

Su Cheng’s other hand still grasped the rope. Seeing Dabai being held by Meng Feng, he released the rope and pressed the elevator button.

Qiao Yonghui, as if clutching at a lifeline, immediately took out his phone, intending to arrange for Lin Chen’s release.

Feng Yang held up the rosin and continued forward along the secret passage. Feng Sheng followed curiously, peering left and right, momentarily forgetting the danger within.

General Sun An, wielding a heavy iron longsword, leapt onto the warship. Other Wu army soldiers followed suit, leaping aboard and launching a fierce assault against the chaotic Zhong family navy.

Perhaps by chance, the performance must be flawless. After all, Wind’s Whisper had seen the grand world; no flaws could be revealed.

Xinfeng’s thoughts were clear to Xiao Fan. Yet, if you cannot even follow the most basic orders, then what use are you to me?

Along the way, Yan Tong encountered many patrols with cultivation at the Celestial Emperor realm, including some at the peak of that stage.

He reflexively pushed the figure with a palm strike, but felt his hand strike an impenetrable barrier. In the next moment, a tremendous force surged through his arm and body.

“Hiss~” Seeing this, those from the Li family who had just moved froze, their eyes wide with disbelief, each wearing an expression as if witnessing a ghost.

Under such circumstances, even if Chen Fan did not wish to become Dragon Four, he forcibly suppressed any words he wanted to speak from his heart.

Old Tang grew anxious, almost furious, raising a finger to point at Tang Youyou. Seeing his grandfather’s urgency, Tang Youyou quickly shut her mouth, fearing to ask more.

The true moment when Jiang Bai faced a formidable opponent and dealt heavy blows to the vanguard of the demon clan’s army was still far off in the future.

Gong Liyao glared at Gong Liche with a grim expression, stepping aside to charge forward.

Earth Dragon Grass, a fourth-rank medicinal herb of supreme rarity, is robust like vine grass, bearing scales like a qilin’s shell with green skin and a pungent, sour scent. Its most valuable part is the rootstock.

Moreover, even if he possessed mid-grade magisterial cultivation, such cowardice meant certain death when facing the demon clan.

No matter how well-built, what structure could withstand the shockwave of a battle between Supreme Lord Laozi and Amitabha?

If Chen Yuan knew Jiu You’s thoughts, he might retort: “Unexpected, isn’t it? My ears can close too.”

“Fine, rest for a while. I’ll come outside shortly,” Pei Mosheng understood Mu Anqing’s meaning and ceased his probing.

Zhang Jiali had been arrogant but now looked somewhat fearful upon seeing that gaze. Yet, thinking Wang Linlin stood behind her, she feared nothing.

Pei Mosheng turned to Mu Anqing, but she gave no sign of acknowledgment, not even a glance.

Although Chu Mingzhu lacked brains, she understood at this moment that the old lady’s kind attitude was simply because of Pei Mosheng.

Xia Yunqiao’s purpose was twofold: to urge marriage and to probe whether the two children were truly in a cold war, as Lin Ma had said.

Zhou Ruoxiao, emboldened, took a step forward, fracturing the stone bricks beneath his feet. He spun around, delivering an elbow strike aimed at Zhi Ge’s head.

Now equipped with the impressive magical instruments recently delivered by Lin Zhi and Fang Shaojun, Han Yusheng suddenly had a fresh idea. He retreated to an empty room to study the remaining instruments alone.

Yet, his body was frail, his ankles throbbing with piercing pain, dizziness washing over him, cold sweat dripping from his forehead.

More importantly, she sympathized with Song Jing. Leaving her child with herself was already unfair to Lu Fei.
