Volume One, Chapter 42: The Astronomical Bride Price

Riding the might of the hurricane, the ferocious tiger surged in momentum, its front paws slashing back and forth as clusters of razor-sharp wind blades sliced toward A Dao.

"During this mission, we discovered a source-force mine, so we mined some and brought it back. I also wanted to let you know," Lin Mu said, handing her a piece of ore.

You must know that the Heavenly Dao avatar sent out by the Heavenly Dao of the Third Realm to throw its life away was tainted all over with poison specifically targeting the Heavenly Dao.

"Where are you going? What are you going there for?" Although she was asking something she already knew, Qi Ning still wanted to hear the answer from Ye Lei's mouth.

Wang Dachamner and I got out of the car and walked toward the school. Yet along the way, for some unknown reason, whether we crossed paths with classmates or teachers, everyone looked at us with strange expressions, stepping aside to the left and right in unison to clear a path for us. It felt as if Wang Dachamner and I were celebrities making an entrance on campus.

Ddraig fell silent. Although Zhang Ye spoke casually, his unyielding tone clearly signaled that he would definitely perform the Jashuu transformation on top of Susanoo, and no matter what Ddraig said, it would not change Zhang Ye's mind.

My whole body trembled, and every hair on my skin stood on end. Seeing Eighth Uncle Bai rushing toward Bai Xiye, my heart hammered wildly as if it were about to burst out of my chest.

However, no matter how tempting it was, Ye Feng did not dare to forcibly subdue it; otherwise, once the Corpse King retaliated, the consequences would be unimaginable.

"Haha! You bunch of idiots, knowing full well it was a trap yet chasing after it anyway. Now you know how formidable we are!" Wu Tian laughed heartily as he stood on the opposite side of the quicksand.

"Hehe!" The First Elder merely chuckled and walked out. Song Tianji did not understand what the First Elder meant, but he did not dwell on it either. Just as he was preparing to leave, he was stopped by the High Priest, who only said one sentence to him: "Are you comfortable using those bones? Come sit at the temple whenever you have free time." With that, without waiting for Song Tianji to reply, he drifted away.

Su Huanhuan spoke, wanting to snatch it, but Nangong Shanyu immediately pulled the plate closer, twirled several forkfuls of spaghetti, and quickly stuffed it into her mouth.

As soon as those words were spoken, Li Qing, who had intended to continue, abruptly vanished from everyone's sight, so bizarrely that no one reacted for a moment.

The smiles that had just bloomed on the faces of the three Rong dog protectors instantly stiffened. For the Silver Wolf Head to say such things was equivalent to playing the three protectors in the palm of his hand. Yet if what the Silver Wolf Head said was true, it meant the northern Yan Tian Army had produced another figure on par with a Marquis of the Plains—truly a misfortune for the Rong dogs.

"It was indeed the First Palace Master who sent us here. The First Palace Master instructed us to ask the Demon Emperor whether the agreement from a hundred years ago still stands," Juehai said, his eyes gazing intently at Kasyapa.

Even a powerhouse like Jitai had been controlled by the predecessor of this short blade, which was enough to imagine how unimaginably powerful it originally was.

The rain had stopped, and Shen Xinyi had woken up from her nap in the car. Gazing outside at the vehicle, where a few lingering raindrops still hung, she pushed open the car door and ran straight out, rushing toward the restroom. Only after entering did she remember she had dashed out without toilet paper, and there was none inside the restroom either—even if there had been, two days of rain would have soaked it through.

"Hurricane Pearl," Zhang Fan muttered to himself. This bead had been acquired from the elder of the Sky Gate, dropping from him the instant he died.

"Could this palace be an illusion? Or perhaps?" At that moment, Zhang Fan was holding the Shadowless Pearl in his mouth, concealing his aura. Standing hundreds of miles away, the two Star-grade powerhouses had not even noticed an unknown Meridian-stage martial artist spectating their epic battle.

However, although the misunderstanding had been cleared up, the three of them had become unwelcome guests and left the place early.

Just as he had said, when he tried out the storage pouch himself, it showed not the slightest reaction, lying silently on the ground as if it were just an ordinary bag.

Through the thin white mist, I could clearly see that the building was a four-cornered high tower. It had more than a dozen stories, and every corner of each tier had a bronze bell hanging from it.

Aio was too shocked to speak. Meanwhile, Cassius and several other researchers nodded excitedly in agreement.

"You don't need to worry about making an escape. There are no outsiders during the clan sacrifice, and no one else in Konoha will come to the clan grounds at that time. I can take everyone who is willing to leave with us before anyone else notices," Guan Liuren said.

The school Zhang Yingxia was bound for was Nanxi City's 26th Middle School, a municipal key school. Today, he was heading to Class 10 of Grade 1.

Even though dozens of ANBU Root members were veterans of countless battles, their hearts still involuntarily shuddered at the terrifying combat power Kato Ai displayed.

With a graceful figure, three thousand strands of long hair resembling a cascading green waterfall, dressed in simple yet light attire, she was exceptionally enchanting. Her fair skin resembled ivory, and under the flickering lamplight, she looked like a beauty who had stepped right out of a painting.

"I actually wanted to slack off... Yugura just sent news that the royal family of the Wind Country is increasingly suspicious of Sunagakure and will likely take action soon. I still need to make a trip to the Wind Country," Guan Liuren said.

"Brother Teng, what are you doing?" I looked at the garbage on the ground; there was literally no place to set foot.

Having attained the status of an Immortal Dao Lord, Ji Tian was now devoid of fear. He had achieved immortality by merging his physical body with the Dao, and his battle prowess was terrifyingly immense. As long as the high-level figures hidden behind the scenes did not step out, Ji Tian believed he could roam anywhere unhindered.

Not knowing how much time had passed, Chen Qingming abruptly opened his divine eyes, shooting out dazzling rays of light to scan his surroundings. Occasionally, he could hear the sound of ocean currents crashing against the passage becoming increasingly dense; they must have been underneath the seabed mud.

"Scars heal and you forget the pain?" Longye glanced at him, making the man shudder all over, tightly closing his lips and daring not speak another word for fear of getting slapped in the face again.

At this moment, Yelu Zhu was enraged because he had suffered a setback for the first time and his second sword strike had failed to injure his target. Dropping his royal titles, he referred to himself in the rough manner of an ordinary man.

Faintly visible, a faint golden light seemed to emanate from this gigantic figure. That golden light pierced through the white clouds and shone down upon the earth. The wandering souls and desolate ghosts on the ground all let out waves of painful wails.

A mischievous smile surfaced on Tang Rao's face. Chunping could not understand what that mischievous smile on Tang Rao's face meant. Could it be that her master knew something?

He held killing intent even toward Liu Yi, an old acquaintance, let alone completely unrelated strangers whom he would execute without a second thought.

Rao Ling'er only wanted to sit quietly for a while, but the old man stood guard right at the door, as if he needed Rao Ling'er to speak a few words to him before he could set his mind at ease.

"Lord Dean, rest assured, we will definitely be the first batch to enter Yalu. If you are worried, I will go chase that old man away right now," Dugu Xiuluo understood the implication and said in an overbearing tone.
