Chapter 136: Primordial Spirit Beyond the Realm, Lin You Makes His Move
Looking at Liu Xiyue before him, who was as detached and cold as a goddess from the Palace of the Moon, Lin You showed no trace of surprise on his face. With a light laugh, he said, "To receive such high praise from a Primordial Spirit Dao Lord, this humble Daoist is truly honored!"
The moment he sensed that aura emanating from her, Lin You had already confirmed that this was unquestionably a being far surpassing the Golden Toad Daoist.
Although what stood before him was merely a wisp of residual consciousness, the supreme and transcendent Great Dao aura it exuded was likely something only a legendary Primordial Spirit Dao Lord could possess.
After hearing Ah Fu's explanation, Liu Tianhao finally understood the whole story, yet he felt thoroughly humiliated. How could this father-in-law of his be so utterly lacking in sportsmanship?
He was already aware of the events unfolding outside; people within the organization were falling ill one after another, and even he himself was exhibiting abnormal symptoms to varying degrees. He had a vague feeling that this matter was connected to the Nanshan Cemetery, but he dared not leave Cang'er's side to investigate. Day after day, he could only pray that Cang'er would wake up soon.
"Jiaojiao..." His pitch-black, phoenix-like eyes gazed at Bai Jiaojiao cradled in his arms. There were countless things he wanted to say to her, but a bitter lump in his throat rendered him utterly powerless to utter a single word.
Upon hearing this, Taishi Ci was overjoyed. Without answering, he simply nodded repeatedly, thinking to himself that his lord still delivered when it mattered most.
Meanwhile, he covered Bai Jiaojiao's ears with both hands to dampen the deafening thunderclaps so as not to frighten her.
Had she not fallen in love with Yun Han, she would never have known what love truly was, only to be cruelly deceived by him while she loved him most deeply.
He could not fathom why Li Zhi had liquidated his assets for no apparent reason, but he knew very well that Li Zhi's law firm and revenues had always been exceptionally high, thanks to Li Zhi's uniquely discerning vision in handling affairs and making investments.
Xiahou Xuanfeng clearly did not believe that Xia Qing possessed some sort of divine punishment destiny, nor did he care much about it. What he wanted was the man himself, and he loudly invited Xia Qing to join the Heavenly Court.
Having routed the Xianbei cavalry with his grand army, and with heavy snow sealing off the roads, Liu Tianhao chose not to pursue the fleeing enemy forces and instead entered the prefectural city of Dai County.
In the dead of night, when wine fails to intoxicate, one intoxicates oneself. Mo Xiaotian draped a garment over Mo Fan's shoulders before rising to leave. A cold gust of wind blew, sobering him by three parts, and shouldering his heavy broadsword, he marched straight toward the Martial Arts Hall.
Suddenly, Song Yi found himself entirely unable to feel angry at her anymore; his irritation transformed into the fury of jealousy. Was she actually... worrying about him?
"Fine, I'll help you." Yin Rou ultimately agreed, though a pang of guilt toward Yu Ziyan welled up in her heart simultaneously.
At this moment, Ye Lian was rendered speechless. She was so furious she almost laughed—where on earth had this cultivator crawled out from? He looked decent enough, but his intelligence was abysmal.
Using divine nature essence as the boundary, all other essences and demonic forces within the containment zone, save for divine nature essence itself, were infinitely suppressed and purged. They were then converted into divine nature essence at varying ratios for the caster's use.
He picked up his phone, intending to call and check on her, but as he stared at Lin Xixi's number, he hesitated and failed to dial.
Yu'er's reply was exceptionally crisp. With his father by his side, the exhaustion from his escape had long since vanished, and his entire body was brimming with fighting spirit.
Hearing these words, Song Yi's expression softened abruptly. Without a doubt, he felt that his own behavior had caused the other person to feel anxious. His fingers tapped lightly against the tabletop.
"Are you insane? If you don't undergo surgery right away, you might..." Go blind, slip into an endless slumber, or even—these words reached the tip of her tongue before she swallowed them back down.
Seeing his frail appearance, Mu Shaogong felt a profound ache in his heart. The man who had once been high-spirited and ruled the world was now so pale and fragile that it wrenched at his soul.
Ji Zili scratched her head to cover up her momentary embarrassment, only then realizing how she had ended up on the bed. Looking up, she caught sight of Moyu Jingchen dressed in coarse hempen clothes like a rustic country farmer. The sleeves were a bit too short, exposing a section of his wrists which looked rather comical, but in the end, she couldn't help bursting into laughter.
Originally, when her master spoke of mastering a divine technique that would allow him to make the Northern Yan emperor compel the Great Chu's thousands upon thousands of troops to retreat, it was merely meant as a jest to toy with the Northern Yan emperor. Who could have imagined that the Northern Yan emperor would actually be foolish enough to believe it?
