Chapter 55: Of No Importance

When it came to cleaning up the battlefield and silencing witnesses, Karens was an absolute expert, and Patch had even granted him a special skill—possession.

Jiechen sat cross-legged on the bed inside the monk's quarters, taking out a wooden fish percussion instrument, tapping it rhythmically while silently reciting Buddhist scriptures.

A faint layer of moisture shimmered within my eyes. If he took one step back, others might advance ten steps; but when put together, if anyone dared to try taking even a single step forward, their legs would have been broken long ago.

Long Qingchen found it slightly amusing. Although the Spear of Annihilation was a very ancient divine artifact, a weapon was still a weapon after all, ultimately lacking in cunning. With just a slight application of reverse psychology, the Spear of Annihilation couldn't hold its ground and brought out its full strength.

Long Qingchen raised his hand and unleashed the Azure Dragon Profound Meaning, the World of Mortals Profound Meaning, and the Devouring Heaven Profound Meaning, forming a Yin-Yang Taiji diagram that merged into Yao Xi's body. This suppressed Yao Xi's cultivation base while simultaneously sealing her injuries to prevent them from worsening and costing her her life.

"Your mother might..." He looked into my eyes, momentarily not knowing how to continue. But from his solemn gaze and the hesitant tone of his unfinished words, I had already faintly sensed something.

At this very moment, if all the people present in the martial arts gym, along with the resources and factions standing behind each of them, were to be combined, it would be enough to shake the entire city of New York.

Tianci thought to himself that he could finally enjoy a proper meal. Ever since his engagement yesterday, he had been constantly drinking, and having eaten almost nothing today, his stomach had long been empty. Being able to eat a full meal now was truly a matter of great happiness.

Melodious music drifted outward from his fingertips, with graceful notes dancing and flowing across the strings. The melody resembled towering mountains and flowing streams, carrying a classical charm while remaining stirring and magnificent. Only someone with extraordinary musical skill could play such a free-and-easy composition, reaching the realm of complete harmony between person and instrument.

In reality, Wang Mang carried out a series of epoch-making reforms. Although they fell short of success at the final hurdle, they were all meaningful attempts. In contrast, Dong Zhuo knew only how to destroy rather than construct, and was completely unworthy of being compared alongside Wang Mang.

Dong Ninghe trembled all over, somewhat unsure of what Lu Tianyu's words truly signified. Could it be that he was willing to accept her? Reflecting on his intimate actions and gestures just moments ago, a sense of startled realization began to grow within her heart.

At this time, Elise and the others also came to understand what Lidu intended to use to activate the formation. They had to admit that the Temple of Light certainly possessed some formidable methods.

Yang Linguang's eyes revealed a trace of nostalgic sentiment as he said, "It has been a long time, hasn't it? If not for the matter concerning the King of Thailand this time, I suppose it would still be difficult for us to sit together like this!" His voice was deep, seeming in the darkness to come from the vastness of heaven and earth, profound and distant.

"That means we can really pull off this major deal! But I still have to report to the superiors..." Just as he was speaking, the phone rang.

Swatting away the attacker above his head with a single slash of his sword—while the opponent slowly landed on the ground—Levi recognized the newcomer. It appeared to be Furan's younger sister, Veronica.

As long as one person took the lead, coupled with He Cai having opened the path beforehand, it wasn't long before these landowners began speaking up one after another, expressing their willingness to sign the agreement.

After waking up, the young man wandered around the room like a lost soul for several rounds, only finding his clothes on the third circuit. In truth, his clothes had been placed right beside his bed, yet he kept forgetting, often even forgetting his own name.

Zhang Ning did not immediately give chase, deliberately waiting for a moment as he exchanged a blank stare with the old shopkeeper, then glanced at the jewelry placed upon the table.

Seeing this, another officer stepped forward, attempting to help Shiro Ishii pull out his sword, but like Ishii, no matter how much strength they exerted, they could not pull it free.

After another brief moment, all the medicinal liquid was absorbed and refined by Jiang Ning, causing the vital blood within his body to reach a peak state.

Edward realized something was amiss; a strange energy reaction was currently brewing within Adin.

Jiang Ning glanced at the Niu demon without speaking, simply making a gesture inviting him forward to indicate that he could proceed.

It was hard to describe this military campaign. Calling it a blitzkrieg had a certain ring to it, but surely Germany's blitzkrieg during World War II wasn't fought quite like this, was it?

Faced with such a formidable opponent, Ling Yani had no choice but to deploy her full strength to cope. The so-called Profound Heaven Sword Technique she claimed to use externally was actually the Twenty-Nine Bone-Stripping Sword Styles taught by Qian Batian, characterized by their insidious, ruthless, and tricky nature.

The Five Elements Warriors shifted their positions once more, appearing on Jiang Ning's other side and landing another strike that batted him back across the space. Another bloody hole appeared on his body once again, sending scarlet blood gushing outward.

"It's not that I dislike her; perhaps it's simply because... she is the master of the 'Scarlet Moon Mansion', who knows..." Ling did not answer Zhuge Xun's question directly. In truth, she herself had no idea what Yue was thinking.

"No killing!" Li Yanran only now realized that Li Yi was a ruthless character, and the ones she needed to worry about weren't him, but those seven individuals.

Those international speculators truly harbored ill intentions, with their ultimate target aimed squarely at Hong Kong. Even Taiwan across the strait was seizing the opportunity to kick them while they were down, suddenly abandoning the defense of the New Taiwan Dollar's exchange rate, which invisibly increased the pressure on the Hong Kong stock market.

Although he indeed possessed a surge of brute strength, it was still far from the level of splitting mountains and cleaving rocks. Even if that day truly arrived, to him, the Great Han dynasty—with its supernatural and boundless cultivators—would be nothing more than something that could be dealt with in the snap of a finger. He felt as though he truly couldn't help the other person with anything, leaving him unable to utter a word, his face flushed bright red.

Constantly having two elderly generals stand guard while he slept was indeed not a viable solution. Empress Changsun still held a degree of belief in preordained matters, especially after learning of the dream Li Shimin had experienced, only for Wei Zheng to actually fall asleep in court the very next day and proclaim upon waking that he had beheaded a karmic dragon in his dream. This caused her to believe in it all the more deeply.

Thinking is doing. Feng Qiqi leaped gracefully across the rooftop while simultaneously releasing several flying needles, instantly killing six men who collapsed to the ground. Seeing this, the others panicked as they frantically searched for the enemy's whereabouts. Feng Qiqi descended from the sky, her dagger ruthlessly plunging into the soft spot atop a guard's skull.

Feng Wanli was not in a hurry either; he tapped the low-energy apparatus on his ear to check his own attributes. Right now, Feng Wanli cared most about whether he had already become a Bronze-tier inheritor.

Nalan Ningyan and Xing'er didn't think that deeply about it, pointing at the scenery along the river and chattering away endlessly.
