Chapter 51: The Luxurious Sightseeing Train (Part 2)

The creature’s gesture of raising its arm to lift the curtain was a perfect mirror image of Lian Xinyi’s peeking motion.

Lian Xinyi’s hair stood on end, a powerful psychological suggestion paralyzing him from making any rash move, as if a single misstep would shatter the fragile balance.

Shen Zhaoming was equally frozen in place.

They had experienced something similar before—when a barrier that was not quite a door was inadvertently opened, unleashing countless monsters.

That time, they barely escaped with their lives.

Fortunately, this was within the simulator.

The power they now wielded had already attained the essence of the thunder element—a fierce, indomitable momentum that seemed unstoppable and impenetrable.

“Let’s rest for today. After meeting Ya Jing tomorrow, we’ll make further plans,” Lin Yuan said calmly. The clan leader and Wu Xiu nodded and returned to their respective quarters.

He left unsaid what was on his mind, but Lin Beichen understood clearly—Li Buhuan wanted him to avoid suspicion.

Yu Hao didn’t need to be told twice and naturally turned his head away, but Xia Jian lingered for a few more glances before reluctantly turning around.

Now, with Grandpa suddenly saying that Lin Beichen should take him in, Hong Lei felt a mix of shame and anger, at a loss for words.

The Woyin Suspension Realm was much closer to the Qinias Suspension Realm; at Lin Yuan’s speed, it would take just about an hour.

“You could say that, but the scent can be altered,” Lin Yuan said, brushing his sleeve as the two’s auras changed.

Shen Yuguai glanced back at the approaching man. As he descended, he had a fixed position—on a wall in the rooftop garden.

At present, the four palace masters of the Demon Gate dared not press too hard; they merely trapped the others. After all, they only held the upper hand and hoped some coward would flee. If even one or two escaped, they would have a better chance of detaining the rest.

This caused an uproar not only among the ordinary soldiers but also stirred agitation among the officers and generals.

The faces of the Shu Mountain Sword Sect members darkened involuntarily. The Purple-Blue Dual Kill and Dual Dragon Sword Techniques were the sect’s most closely guarded secrets, yet now they were wielded by someone like Yan Yun Jing. This was a crushing blow to their pride.

Princess Jielan always claimed to be the disciple of Leng Rufeng, the lord of a mountain villa beyond the northern borders. She said that once, following her master, she visited the Left Wise King of the Xiongnu, Luan Tino, who recounted the tragic fate of the Left General Tuoba Hui’s family.

Some days later, Princess Jielan formally met with the Left Wise King. Although she met him veiled in light gauze, the king was pleased. After all, she had agreed to see him, so he made no further demands.

The Eight Treasures Tower was the Cui family’s property—Cui Min’s domain. The relationship between Wang Chen and Cui Min was well known throughout the tower. Even newcomers who had never met Wang Chen would have heard tales about him from their colleagues.

Afterward, orders were given to bind Helan Mukun and his group. Once they regained consciousness, Tuoba Jie sent someone to summon the old clan leader, Helan Qiu.

Following Tuoba Jie’s instructions, the two sworn brothers had completed their tasks and then returned to their rooms to prepare for tomorrow’s mission to rescue Tuoba Xue at Huyang Slope.

Unexpectedly, the alluring boss’s eyes flashed with a sly glint, then remained still, not resisting Bao Bei’s movement at all. Instead, she stared at him with sparkling eyes, growing increasingly watery.

To be honest, today felt strange—perhaps cursed or blessed—because the cards Bao Bei drew astonished even himself. They were simply too good and consistently so. With his superior skill, if he played seriously, this fat man could win every single round without losing once.

“Everyone, you must be very familiar with this,” Bao Bei smiled, slowly stepping back half a pace and standing beside the map of the star system surrounding Caslet.
