Chapter 58: Reputation

It seemed her diagnosis was correct; Grandpa Laifu had indeed not suffered a relapse, though she had originally intended to confirm it once more.

Ye Qingjue opened his eyes, glanced at Fox Qimei beside him, and without a single word, walked straight out of the dungeon.

"Is it him?" Song Jia's lips parted slightly as she gazed at the dark shadow beneath the third cave in the valley.

Meizhuang's feint was merely meant to lower his guard so she could cast her spell using divine consciousness. Yet, whether he dodged or not, the outcome would be much the same; after all, the disparity in their realms was far too vast. No matter how strong he was, he could only meet a bitter end.

Lan Bao'er felt strongly that since Yang Min had been so good to her, she must not bring shame upon Senior Yang. This was a matter concerning Senior Yang's face and dignity; she could never allow Senior Yang to curse himself, nor could she possibly let him serve tea to the she-dragon.

"No, I must go and see for myself!" Ye Ge stepped outside and immediately soared into the air, heading straight for Fangzhu Mountain.

"Cheng An, say no more. I cannot sacrifice my unborn child just to preserve this physical shell," Su Ruoyao declared with unshakable resolve.

In short, because of Nangong Ji, a rising star of a divine doctor had also emerged. His name was Changfeng Xiayue, a young man of about nineteen or twenty years of age. His strength was in the genetic realm, making him a powerful cultivator as well.

It seemed things were rather urgent. Had she known earlier, she should have returned to her hometown in Donghai City and hired professionals specializing in dealing with mages.

The Venom-Ball Manatee also charged ahead, its massive belly releasing tendrils of green poisonous gas that poisoned a vast number of Red-Skull Demonic Fang-Fish. This was the skill [Toxic Plague].

The air imperceptibly grew quite heavy, and many found their breathing involuntarily quickening.

A massive expanse of white shadows shot out from behind them, wrapping around their waists and whisking them away in an instant.

Hanyun Zi was startled, then nodded in sudden realization. Chu Yaqi walked over from the side and looked at me with some surprise, as if the current me felt somewhat unfamiliar to her.

The combat damage degree reflects the extent of injury to the meridians and internal organs. Under recuperation status, the combat damage status can be reduced down to zero damage, indicating that the meridians and internal organs are slowly being repaired by inner Qi until fully recovered.

A muffled "gurgle" sounded—whether it was a burp or a cry, it was the first time it had made a sound in all these days.

"So be it, that saves the trouble." Li牧 (Li Mu) didn't mind. He had many ways to alter his appearance, though what he did not know was that this was likewise a directive issued by the Federation; before figuring out this Illuminati, they did not wish any other factions to contact Li Mu.

Just as the broadcast had stated, when that energy ball struck the protective shield, it felt as though it had shattered a massive egg-shaped curtain wall. Although the energy ball was somewhat weakened, its destructive power remained terrifying.

Even crazier was that Yan Zhen actually dared to roar that he would surpass the Invincible Young Master, pushing madness to its absolute limit.

Fortunately, the Ministry of Thunder also possessed an expert named Qian Qianyi, who immediately channeled his magical power into the Son of Thunder, slightly easing the latter's agonizing pain.

Zombies possessed two formidable traits: first, they felt no pain and could withstand all sorts of physical blows; second, they possessed immensely tough bones and sinews. The longer a corpse lay buried in the subterranean world, the more moisture its body would lose, causing the skin to become rigid. The blood vessels and tendons would adhere tightly to the bones by the hardened skin, forming a body of copper skin and iron bones.

With a loud crash, that Celestial Immortal was sent flying by Kuang Xinghai, slamming heavily into a wall before the entire wall collapsed into rubble.

Actually, what I was most curious about was what exactly we had experienced during the competition, but asking directly would be a bit abrupt, so I needed to cozy up to him first.

Su Qian frowned, sighing inwardly: Yangguang had never stepped out of the ivory tower of campus, and his life had been entirely smooth-sailing. Faced so abruptly with the dark side of society, he undoubtedly found it impossible to accept.

When that name was spoken, the atmosphere in the room plummeted to an icy extreme. Not even the sound of breathing could be heard—it was a terrifying silence.

I thought to himself that he couldn't possibly be angry, could he? After all, Li Yunyao's joke just now had gone a bit too far.

No wonder the chieftain had just made Ye Feifei leave the room; given her temper, had she known the ice ginseng was gone, she would surely have turned hostile toward her father on the spot.

"Tch, Bai Yao is truly unlucky to have provoked you," Yang Zhenxhen remarked, seeing that Yangguang ignored him and continued playing his game.

In the past, he had been quite grateful for having this thing on his body since it could cure any illness, but now he suddenly felt it was nothing more than a burdensome encumbrance.

As I pulled off the silkworms clinging to my legs one by one, I desperately tried to leap out of the vat. These silkworms acted like suction cups, exerting countless downward pulls that made it impossible to even climb out.

"Nn, alright, then let's tidy up quickly, lest they return and find this awkward." Lin Xin'er emerged from Qian Yifei's embrace with a coy flush on her cheeks, picked up her clothes, and began to dress.

All beautiful things in this world are invariably drawn to one another—like butterflies and flowers, stars and moon, and ultimately, person to person.

Chi Chen's thin lips parted slightly, and a trace of pain and disappointment finally crossed his stunning, expressive eyes. Those dimmed pupils momentarily resembled a neglected shooting star in the dark night, flashing past to leave behind only a profound sense of regret.

Hearing Jiang Yichen's suggestion, Stone immediately recalled Jiang Yichen's conjecture, a flash of vexation crossing his eyes. Come to think of it, Nianmeng's situation should be identical.

Divine radiance surged upon the long sword in General Li's hand, the sword light blazing incomparably as if attempting to cleave heaven and earth asunder. Vast sword qi gushed forth, coalescing abruptly into a gigantic, towering wave.

Truly wealthy beyond measure. Within minutes, Zheng Xiaolong took off his glasses, placing them on the table with a faint click. I also set down my teacup and called out, "Grandpa."

"Second Master..." waking up due to Jiang Yichen's movement, Le Ruoyi gazed at him in a daze.

Wiping the sweat from her forehead, she was relieved that the Old Madam was holding the family banquet in the main courtyard today, meaning those dishes were prepared in Mother Xu's large kitchen. Here was her domain.

Qian Yifei and Xiong Qi strolled from the gates of Z University to the back mountain, their entire bodies gleaming with golden light. After walking back and forth several times, they didn't encounter a single person daring to rob them.

Prefect Shen asked with a smile, inquiring neither into the origins nor right and wrong, but solely asking how the other party intended to bear the consequences arising from this incident and how to convince the public. How to make all the tribute scholars convinced, and how to satisfy the people of the world when word spread?
