Chapter 54: The Mysterious Stranger Appears

Ye Cangming sneered coldly, showing no sign of loosening his grip. His thin lips curled slightly. "You’ve embarrassed me in public more than once, not to mention what happened today. I said it before—if I don’t chop you up and feed you to the dogs, I’ll take your surname. What do you say?"

Whether it was repudiating him as a husband, pushing him into a dung pit before everyone, or deliberately spitting black blood on him today, each incident was enough for him to torment this woman mercilessly.

Not to mention the other messy affairs.

Chu Yuyao, inwardly cursing, secretly counted the dogs.

During the day, she began at the street corner, carefully observing the shops lining both sides of the street one by one. But they were nothing more than restaurants or clothing stores, with nothing remarkable about them.

Was this a joke? He hadn’t drunk for half a year; now, whenever he saw any wine, he’d claim it was a good vintage.

Ling Ye didn’t answer, but instead ignited every drop of blood in his body. Dazzling, piercing golden light burst forth from him, bathing every inch of his skin in brilliant gold.

Li Hao’s actions intensified the turbulence above the base. The entire facility began to shake, terrifying cracks spread across the ceiling of the passage overhead, threatening to shatter and collapse at any moment. The members of the Root organization were instantly overcome with fear.

Immediately, all the spheres of light were absorbed into the mirrored surface. The next moment, the mirror flashed, radiating a dazzling glow. The light poured magnificently from midair, intertwining and stretching, finally forming a vast circle of light on the ground ahead.

Of course she didn’t want to give it, but she knew she was at someone’s mercy, and naively believed she could protect the welfare home by herself, so she gave the number.

In any case, the Black Blade Autumn Water was useless to him by now; trading it for a new teammate seemed worthwhile.

Qingyan wondered whether the command Liang Jingzhan had just issued still stood after he broke Pan Qionghua’s fingers.

Everyone knew the strength of a barrier’s formation depended on the spiritual power of its creator. Now, these barrier arrays had weakened considerably, and the Heavenly Emperor’s condition could not be much better.

Some people hesitated because of their surroundings. Shino immediately released a swarm of insects, letting them cling to the threads. With Shino’s bugs wrapped around them, the lines were easily revealed.

The beauty before him had skin as pale as snow, a face exquisitely delicate, and she was so close, radiating dazzling allure—he felt an irresistible urge to taste her sweetness.

"Lord Demon King, with your abilities, how long would it take to annihilate all the ghouls?" Eto asked, looking at Su Yu.

"Let them go back first. I’ve no time today," Qiao Yunxi refused outright, unwilling to compromise herself.

Listening to Li Cuihua’s steady, powerful footsteps fading away, Shen Gongbao finally breathed a sigh of relief and crawled out from under the table.

The insults from the disciples of various righteous sects before him stirred the pain in his heart, wounded when Ning Zhongze expelled him from Mount Hua, making it ache afresh. His gaze at the surrounding disciples gradually grew vicious.

Linghu Chong’s eyes were wild, like a beast cornered, staring at the disciples encircling them. He vaguely recalled how his beloved mistress, whom he regarded as a mother, had cast him out—simply because he suspected the master’s death was linked to Ji Changfeng of the Mount Tai sect.

"They may be fewer, but every one of my soldiers is an elite who can take on ten enemies at once." As they spoke, a middle-aged man approached, dressed in a deep brown robe, sporting a beard and long hair draped over his back, exuding the aura of a true master.

"I’m sorry, Kagome, we really didn’t mean it." Yura immediately bowed in apology. At first, Yura hadn’t understood what Ryuuji had planned, thinking their tailing her was just to find out where her family lived.
