Chapter 97: Caprice

After sending the man away, Lu Qingqing finally had time to turn back to the secret chamber.

Seeing Shen Jin lying on the floor and struggling to get up, she frowned. "What are you doing?" she asked, baffled. She stepped forward to help him up, and only after a long while did Shen Jin finally come to.

The man was extremely weak. Fortunately, the wound in his chest was not deep; otherwise, he might have lost his life.

There were three demonic relics in all. Giving one back to the Black Eagle Cult made him wince a little, but it was still acceptable.

Lei Zhongqiang wanted to argue, but being exceptionally clever, he knew that Nangong Han was by nature wary and suspicious. Even if he could speak with complete eloquence now, Nangong Han would never again trust him or make use of him. To keep insisting on his loyalty would only bring him humiliation. Better to save his breath and preserve a shred of dignity.

Su Yang nodded slowly. The golden space-time domain spread outward from his body as its center, gradually enveloping Zeta and Bemstar.

After the giant monster's guidance, the righteous Zero was ready to become one with the human youth Ran.

Thanks to the special properties on his stone-splitting hammer and chisel, Zhang Yan found the work almost effortless, as though he were a master butcher carving up an ox. Every strike was precise, every motion just right.

The power of the Roaming Ghost was equally terrifying. From within that mass of gray energy, an ancient white ghostly hand stretched out.

He could feel the qi and blood in his chest had already thickened to the width of a finger and a half. Once it reached the thickness of two fingers, it would be enough to break through the skin barrier and become a true martial artist of the Skin-Tempering Realm.

Jiang Chengce looked at Kim So-yeon with a hint of apology in his eyes, because he knew she had come in a fit of anger after he had kept neglecting and distancing himself from her.

By now, with County Magistrate Chen Xingshan's support, the Dou family had already become a great clan second only to the Wang family, the Chen family, the Divine Weapon Workshop, and the Spring Revival Hall.

The moment the unique skill of a spiritual-flow cultivator activated, Feng Luoyu closed his eyes. Yet within his spiritual sense, he could clearly feel a gentle vortex of spiritual power appear instantly before the gem in the sword hilt.

Crack, crack, crack. The rifle's trigger was pulled. Yuan Hua fired wildly at Li He, shouting indistinctly in a frenzy, his words meaningless and his face demented.

Most cultivators who hunted fierce beasts swallowed the beasts' souls to strengthen their own. As for the bodies, they could not be taken away anyway, nor were they needed, so they could only be exchanged at the Hall of All Phenomena for contribution points.

Qiao Mimi took the child from her arms. "Go and get examined properly. I'll hold the child for you, so don't worry!" Ji Yuxing glanced at her and said nothing, or perhaps she no longer had the strength to speak. But Qiao Mimi still saw gratitude in her eyes.

No sooner had she finished speaking than the two cars behind simultaneously changed speed and direction, trying to trap Luo Yan's car between them.

"Keep sending more people," the old man said coldly. Though he wore a mask, the fury in his tone was unmistakable.

Hearing Atreus's smug, mocking laugh, Ba Bato and Chun Hui finally understood that there was not the slightest room for negotiation in today's battle. It had to be a struggle to the death.

The security captain nodded and called over one of his men. Together they carried the man with the broken leg out toward the gate, and no matter how he struggled or shouted, they did not let go.

"Dad, save me!" Ling Zixi burrowed into Ling Mo's arms. Ling Mo burst out laughing. So this was what family happiness felt like, wasn't it?

"How strange! Why is there no one wherever we go?" Qin Fen could not help clenching his hand as he pushed open the door to Chu Tiantian's home.

Lu Tianyu's flattery was a little too heavy-handed. Even a fool could hear that the sister-in-law in his mouth was someone else.

Whoosh—As her words fell, the fully grown Mu's entire body turned black and white, then shattered completely into black-and-white lines and dissolved into this world of rules, proclaiming its death.

Duo Bao, Zhao Gongming, Wu Yunxian, and Jin Guxian surged forward together and draped an ornate, solemn, pitch-black imperial robe over Ying Yuan. It was majestic and warlike, overflowing with the arrogant aura of an emperor.
