Volume One, Chapter 113: Standing Up for Ranran's Beloved Disciple
Five influential figures appealed to Lin Ranjan with both emotion and reason, stirring her deeply.
Li Suyu felt an unprecedented fear and slowly retreated, desperate to escape the eerie cathedral. Unexpectedly, Meifeng and Zishan had already blocked her path, standing firmly at the doorway.
After understanding the full circumstances, Lei Yang and his two companions realized that if they reported this matter back to the Tianding Sect, Feng Wuya would surely be punished. Therefore, they refrained from advancing further and returned to Jiang City.
As she ascended, everyone's gaze followed her. She tapped her storage pouch, and a long sword appeared. Skillfully wielding the sword, she charged straight at Feng Ziling.
However, just as Luoyuan Peak unleashed a palm strike, his expression suddenly changed drastically. The four-star Martial Emperor who had burst forward bizarrely coughed up fresh blood and was thrown backward, his fate uncertain.
Upon seeing that figure, Baishitu's face showed excitement. Ignoring Huayan, he rushed forward immediately.
Wu Xiulian felt his malicious gaze lingering on her, awakening an indescribable disgust within her. She glanced at her son hiding behind her, gritted her teeth, and endured the unease, nodding slightly.
Bai Yi and Lin Moyan led the group, with Bai Ling and Jian Ya bringing up the rear. In the middle, Yao Tie and Yan Cai each carried a large hemp sack.
“Weak and cowardly people have no right to speak of justice. Like you, all you can do is beg for help—it's utterly laughable,” said Xilanos with a dry laugh.
However, the master never expected that after the first lesson, your young master still wouldn’t learn. Now you’ve been sent, it seems your family must be tired of living so long.
“If you enter as a merchant, you might get ‘robbed’ by the Empire’s army,” Jasmine half-joked.
Jiang Chen’s proud mid-Heaven rank strength was insignificant on this continent. Even with such power, he was merely one among countless scattered immortals on the Immortal Realm continent.
For many years, the matriarch’s prestige was firmly established. With a mere shout, no one dared speak another word or even meet her gaze. Those who did would instinctively lower their heads.

Various great arts and secret techniques stirred the void, causing it to tremble and become riddled with holes. Qiao Nan was forced to dodge constantly, changing stances to evade, but was steadily being outpaced by those behind him.
“Hehe... Director Li, watch closely! The magic show is about to begin!” Tang Tian smiled as he spoke to Li Ruoxi.
It was my first encounter with an earth-element superpower user, so I was cautious, constantly dodging.
Regarding these two nephews’ abilities, he felt inferior. Without their help, the Heavenly Court would never have penetrated the Tianmang Star Domain.
A sword strike came; Ye Bufan dodged the deadly tip. Wan Chaoxia sneered with disdain and swept her sword as if painting a crescent moon.
They saw a patch of marsh beneath a huge rock, steaming with mist, indicating the water was hot. Stones protruded from it in a chaotic way, but both were versed in formations and sensed something amiss immediately.
Li Xiaoyao belonged to the third type. Having advanced to the first level and holding five elemental foundation pills, ordinary Yin graves posed no threat to him.
Nicole’s disappearance was difficult to conclusively attribute to anyone. Ian had many enemies, and British agents still pursued him relentlessly, proving he had never been truly safe.
At night, Zhouzhou tended to his wounds again. Wei Xiao sneaked out to the nearby forest. These days, Zhouzhou followed him daily to monitor Wei Xiao’s actions and the raft’s construction progress, a task entrusted to him by Xu Jingzhi.
Wu Wei had been in Las Vegas for a month. He moved in with Robert and settled everything, finally having a home. Wu Wei had completed his first step in the city of gambling.
“Yaer, you know Old Master Li is not a kind man. If you don’t take me there, do you want your brother to die?” Lian Zhou said sternly.
Perhaps this was because the capital of any country never lacks nobles and officials. Here, the ratio between officials and civilians was greatly narrowed.
The other Celestial Venerables witnessed the open and covert struggle between the Eastern Emperor and the Supreme Elder but none intervened. These ancient beings, having lived countless years, were all shrewd; no one wished to wade into such troubled waters.

The Arab man opposite Wu Wei seemed to want to show off. He grabbed ten chips and slammed them on the table with a “snap,” raising the bet by five hundred thousand on top of Wu Wei’s.
Judging from Wang Nanbei’s earlier answers, the old master seemed quite satisfied. But he had no intention of letting things rest and decided to play another game of chess with Wang Nanbei. As the saying goes, chess reveals character. Only after this game would the old master be confident in judging Wang Nanbei’s true nature.
The experimenters in the third laboratory of the Byron’s experimental cabin built a model of the Ziyang and launched it beyond Helka Star’s atmosphere.
“Thank you, William. I will accept this gown,” Jenny said with a smile.
How could I have forgotten this, Changge sighed inwardly. In the game, the Holy War was a PvP dungeon akin to the chaotic Battle Silver City, but unlike the latter’s free-for-all, the Holy War was faction-based—a naval guild versus pirate guild showdown.
With such a huge movement by the Eighth Route Army, the National Army couldn’t be deaf, so they sent an officer delegation over.
Undoubtedly, these people had no chance of survival. Under the erosion of the deadly poison, even with antidote pills, there was no time for treatment.
Ban Zhi’s situation was different; his workplace was inside the palace, so returning there was simply going home.
In the cultivation chamber, Li Zhiyi and Li Tongcai wished to stop but couldn’t control their power. Because of the promise from Po Jun, they fought with double strength.
