Chapter 101: Devouring

The carriage rolled slowly along the road, and Murong Yan watched the departing figure from not far behind.

Guilt weighed heavily on his heart.

He had never meant to drag Lu Qingqing into this, but matters had reached this point, and he could not escape responsibility.

“I’m sorry, Qingqing. I’ve wronged you.”

Murong Yan did not even dare to step forward, afraid that if he appeared...

Jianchen had come to the imperial palace for Yin Xiukong, for Meini, and even more to ask this uncle in name only what role he had truly played in the Luo family affair all those years ago.

That was why the higher a person’s cultivation, the more they valued seclusion during training. Otherwise, if they were in a state of mind like Xiao Mohe’s and there were others nearby with malicious intent, the consequences would be unimaginable.

As for Golden Boy, he found himself sitting alone in the core of Mars, surrounded on all sides by a brilliant crimson glow. Terrified, he looked around and saw no one, so he hurriedly sent a hoarse telepathic call for his elder sister. But the cores of the two planets were simply far too distant, far beyond the range that any message could reach.

“Mm, take a look. It might help restore your inner strength,” Silver Moon said to Ye Long.

After entering the room, Ye Fei did not stand on ceremony. Before sitting down, he took a pack of Harmony Under Heaven cigarettes from his pocket and handed one to each of the brothers in turn.

Only this one man, as casually as if he were eating and drinking, pushed out with both palms and opened the tightly shut gate.

“Don’t be foolish. What do you think you can do?” George rebuked him sternly. He had not failed to want to do the same thing himself just now, for his teacher, Leonard, was also imprisoned by Marcolin, his life or death still unknown. But years of experience told him that with his own abilities, he could do nothing but add to the chaos.

The God-Fallen Sword was drawn. Jiang Yun held it in his hand and lashed out with a single fierce strike, slamming headlong into the blood spear.

Such an arrangement forced us to ponder the intentions of the Lord of Meink. If we failed to handle it properly, the consequences would be severe. Any mistake, whether in dignity or in safety, would ultimately be a loss on our side.

But the scent they now caught told their animal instincts that this was something even more delicious than the finest thing they had ever eaten before. Their stomachs, only hastily and barely filled a moment ago, began to churn violently once more; their mouths flooded with saliva, and everything in their minds aside from hunger shamefully emptied away.

Just as Yang Chong was wondering, the red spear shot toward Arthur once more after drawing near to him. But the special energy poured into it this time was extraordinary; even at a glance, Yang Chong felt something that was no mere illusion.

Fourth Master Liu opened his snake mouth and spoke in human words. Even with a thousand years of cultivation, he had still not perfected the Five Escape Arts or the technique of transforming into a dragon. Yet for some reason, Du Meng, with only three hundred years of cultivation, had been blessed with one fortunate encounter after another and had actually surpassed this so-called uncle of his.

Before the words “Cat’s Eye” had even faded, the branches and leaves of that towering tree began to sway, and the birds hidden within it all flew out from the dense foliage.

And how had they managed to survive twenty days without eating or drinking? How had a town that was once so prosperous turned into this within a little over twenty days?

At the very end of her life, Nannan had Zekin by her side. She knew that Zekin loved her; she must have been very happy.

As time went on, Meng Tianzheng and Zhao Wuji had already clashed thousands of times. Both of them looked utterly miserable, like two blood-soaked men locked in battle.

And those auction lots, without exception, were ultimately interfered with by Su Yi at the critical moment. He raised the bids casually—sometimes once, sometimes several times—but in the end, none of those things ever fell into Su Yi’s hands.

Avi caught a hint of helplessness in Yoan’s eyes. The other man had no intention of giving up his place at Red Falcon Academy, and Yoan clearly had some unspeakable difficulty.
