Volume 1, Chapter 36: Come to My Place

Yet! Qi Wuxie paid no heed to the woman’s words, focusing entirely on tending to Chen Jinqiu’s injuries.

"Are you deaf? I am talking to you!"

"Let her go this instant!"

"Hands on your head!"

"Get down on your knees!"

Click!

The dozen or so guards who had followed close behind immediately raised their firearms, aiming them squarely at Qi Wuxie.

Seeing this, Xu Mengjia hurriedly interjected, "You have the wrong person! The one who abducted my friend is over there!"

"It’s not him!"

At her words, the guards turned their gazes toward the distance, where the corpse of the Black Snake lay in a pool of blood.

The woman narrowed her eyes and pressed on, "But he killed someone!"

"Get up right now, or I will fire!"

Coldness filled the woman’s eyes...

Luo Li wore a glove woven from specialized metal filaments. Pressing a bracelet on his wrist, he felt a sudden resonance between the energy and his mecha. A strange sense of disorientation followed, accompanied by a surreal, magical scene unfolding before his eyes.

Since he did not know the true objective, he would see if what was being presented to him—and what he had deduced—aligned with the mysterious figure’s intentions.

Bai Yi curled her lips, marveling at the workings of fate, while feeling a flicker of curiosity: what exactly was her special ability?

Furthermore, a sudden scream had just echoed from afar. None of them were fools; they knew full well it was the consequence of that savage beast’s roar.

Fede knew that from this night on, the defense of Dolet City had begun. As a mercenary, he was about to face his first major battle.

With nearly a hundred thousand disciples arriving for the assessment, screening them one by one was destined to be a monumental task.

Around Mingxin danced a dozen wind blades laced with cyan veins. These terrifying blades could typically pierce through four or five snow wolves before their momentum was spent.

Watching the two figures in the corner with their shoulders shaking and hearing the muffled giggles, Bai Yi rolled her eyes in exasperation.

"Su Yi, I told you to wait for me. Why didn't you?" Su Qin’s voice interrupted Su Yi’s reverie.

Huo Tong nodded, her gaze shifting to the peerless man with silver hair standing to the side; the pair of cyan eyes immediately betrayed his identity.

Long after Qin Yi had left the Rogue Cultivator Alliance, the cultivators within were still locked in slaughter over the mission. Now, with the addition of the Void Grotto, the Alliance was surely in for turbulent times.

The fifth match concluded, leaving the arena a scene of icy ruin. To avoid disrupting the subsequent bouts, the Sect Leader of Jiuxuan waved his hand, melting the ice debris and unfreezing the Lotus Lake.

Ran Yi dodged the sword thrust at him, used the momentum to leap away, and grabbed County Assistant Wang, who was trembling like a leaf. "Move!" Only then did the assistant snap out of his trance, stumbling frantically in his wake.

However, the Nan brothers, left behind by Lu Fei, felt a complex mix of emotions. Did this not demonstrate their commander’s trust in them? With this thought, they bowed slightly and stood guard behind Lu Fei.

The carriage wheels creaked as they turned. The newlywed groom was tossed into the carriage, tied up and left beside Ye Huang.

Facing a White Tiger of such caliber, the old Daoist felt he had no chance of victory. Setting aside his depleted vitality, even at his peak, he would be no match for a beast of such terrifying power.

Moreover, seeing Yifan maintain his righteous facade, many cultivators weighed the pros and cons. Yet, when it came to Zhan Feng’s actions, everyone was surprisingly unanimous in their silence.

"What? Gu Lingyun is dead?" Gu Shibanniang sat up in bed, her pale face filled with disbelief.

"Look, this is my vast empire," the First Emperor said, taking Li Si’s hand and pointing proudly at the Map of the Realm.

Thus arose rumors of the "Blood Blade Wuxin" and the "Death God Wuxin." It could be said that Wuxin’s achievements were inextricably linked to Hong Yu. Hong Yu had been cultivating an opponent he could no longer control, all without realizing it. Who would ultimately emerge the victor? Only time would tell.

In just the few breaths it took Wang Sheng to react, the molar clearly loosened. His consciousness could perceive it with absolute, vivid clarity.

Those captured here were either covert agents scattered outside the Nine Suns Holy Land or merchants, all individuals of some standing in the various cities beyond the holy grounds.

Now, they were in an awkward position; to continue fighting and break that formation of strange runes would yield no benefit, as they were merely runes crafted by another.

Australia was famously vast and sparsely populated. With an area of 7.69 million square kilometers, its population was only eighteen million—hardly more than that of Linhai City.

Ye Kong knew well how important I was to the Ye family. If I refused to relent, Ye Wangbei’s life would truly be forfeit. Despite his extreme reluctance, Ye Wangbei continued to apologize to me.

She was deeply puzzled by how the Law Enforcement circle could be so careless, leaving so many Divine Suns here with no one to guard them.

Lost in thought, Li Guoyu was shoved by Wang Shufang. Lacking balance, she stumbled and fell right in front of Shang Huaicui.

These powerful beings already sensed that in the Nascent Soul realm, almost no one could stand against Chu Yi—unless that group of monsters joined forces.

He was genuinely wary of Bai Yun Tian, who was lawless when unrestrained, fearing he might conduct heaven-defying, evil research in the shadows. Having state personnel keeping an eye on him gave him peace of mind.

Gradually, the lighting in the venue shifted from a blinding bright yellow to a dim amber, then eventually to black, leaving only the massive stage ahead to emit a distinct glow.

It was completely unexpected. Although she knew Valentine’s Day fell around the middle of the month, Mu Siyan did not seem to value it much, preferring the two traditional observances instead.

Shen Aoning could not bear to watch and stepped forward to intervene, only to be gently pushed aside by Qin Ruilin. He could not bring himself to be truly cruel to her; in his heart, she was like a pearl—too precious to discard, and far too fragile to break.

The Song army’s defense line appeared formidable but was hollow at the core, possessing only a magnificent facade. The only units capable of a real fight were the twenty thousand riders of the Divine Machine Battalion brought by Zhao Qu. But with the hundred-thousand-strong army in rout, Zhao Qu dared not confront the Xia forces and fled the battlefield in panic under the protection of his cavalry.
