126 They Will Be Punished
"Hmph!" Bai Zongnan let out a cold snort and tossed the man in the green robe aside.
His brow was furrowed deep in thought. The identity of this man remained a mystery; the only certainty was that he had been working for Mo Zijian. If even a mere pawn under Mo Zijian's command possessed such power, he would surely be no match for Mo Zijian unless his own cultivation level surged dramatically.
"I cannot delay any longer, or I shall surely meet an untimely end."
"It seems there is only one path left to take."
Seeing the message from Michelle, Lin Xiao could not help but offer a wry smile. It was truly punctual; the moment he arrived at Lizhi Lake, the text message arrived.
People often fail to notice it, but if one pays even the slightest attention, they will find that they feel a bit thirsty after a bath, and they drink more water than usual.
Although Yulu was trying to comfort Mingnan, her voice trembled, and beads of sweat stood out on her forehead. Recalling the harrowing scene just moments ago, she was still gripped by fear.
A glimmer of light appeared in the distance; perhaps that light marked the destination they were striving to reach.
Jia Diefei and Yuankong never expected Du Qianjie to dare to strike. Was he seeking his own death? As she retreated in haste, Jia Diefei shouted, "Do not kill him!" She knew Du Qianjie had a good relationship with the likes of Jiusou and Aobosi; if Du Qianjie were killed, the consequences would be dire.
"Bin'er, do you recognize who this is?" Ximeng's sister-in-law asked her three-year-old son.
To be distracted at a time like this meant death, but he wanted to live, and he wanted to turn the tide. Therefore, dealing with the person before him was the only logical course of action.
After all efforts were exhausted, the energy levels were finally sealed away once more, waiting for the next time they would be unleashed.
This battle had been won brilliantly. After returning to Bailitan, Elder Xia spoke proudly of his tactical design, which was how Feng Jun came to learn of it.
"Why do you try to harm me time and time again? I have no grudge against you," I asked, looking at him.
"She was wounded by a Tulu while saving me, and since the competition is imminent, I am worried about her injuries," Ye Zhen whispered.
Initially, seeing that no one had spoken in one of the VIP boxes, I thought it was him, but it turned out to be Yelu Jiya. That left the special VIP box as the most likely location.
Suddenly, a dazzling blue ball of light appeared in his left palm and a red one in his right. Looking closer, a white tiger circled within the blue sphere, while a green dragon roamed within the red one.
Perhaps she could make use of this person? Since that grand-uncle-master paid her no mind, the fact that this senior brother had come looking for her showed that there was still some affection left between them.
His entire body ached, his bones felt as though they had been shattered, and his strength seemed to have been drained away. Lin Xiang lay flat in the pit. The yellow sand all around stirred with dark currents, slowly swirling in, as if to bury him alive.
"You are too slow." With a voice so cold it lacked any trace of humanity, Artoria dragged a heavy greatsword as she walked toward him.
"Remember to get a few warming stones tomorrow!" Qian Jiyao stripped off all her clothes, lifted the quilt, and slid inside with a shiver.
Ji Yun watched as the life force ebbed away from Jian Wuchen, feeling a heavy weight in his heart. He had always held Jian Wuchen in high regard; although Jian Wuchen was not his own master, he was the master of Ji Quan, and Ji Yun and Ji Quan were brothers.
Inside the Jinghong Palace, music and dance filled the air, and the young guests toasted one another. Despite the underlying tensions between their various factions, nothing could stop them from enjoying the festivities.
Many believe that true experts exist among the common folk, but in reality, the greatest masters are surely found within the palace. Aside from the few legendary physicians whose names were etched in history, most renowned doctors were summoned to serve as imperial physicians.
It was not just Liaokong; Shizun, Xu Feng, Wuque, Jingang, and a host of other reincarnators who had undergone ancient martial arts enhancement all seized the opportunity to absorb the essence of heaven and earth.
