Chapter 134: A Shameless Transaction

Yunxi stood up abruptly, waving away the medicinal powder, her eyes blazing with fury. "What are you trying to do?"

The female cultivator replied with a frigid expression, "Who told you to wander off alone? Such a perfect opportunity handed to us—why would we ever let it pass?"

Yunxi tried to resist, only to find she could not channel the spiritual energy within her. She turned her gaze sharply toward the other, demanding angrily, "What did you use on me?"

The female cultivator then spoke, "Don't resist..."

This Kun Sha, a man of heinous crimes, possessed a smile that looked as innocent as a pure-hearted youth's. Yet, this series of actions only made his motives more unfathomable. Damn it all, what exactly is he playing at?

"Since Yi'er rarely gets the chance to come back, let her keep the old folks company. Shall we go sit in the room over there?" Master Zhou asked, bowing with a polite, inviting gesture.

In addition to stones that enhanced equipment attributes, she also purchased three Biluo Stones. These stones were exorbitantly priced and provided no attribute bonuses; they served only one purpose: to simplify equipment. They lowered the equipment requirement by five levels, meaning that once the stone was socketed, a piece of level 140 gear could be worn at level 135.

"That doesn't matter. I'll just stay here! I don't mind the trouble of going back to get my things," Yan Lan said with a smile.

Ouyang Lietian’s heart suddenly trembled; the Mi Yiqing before him exuded a mature charm from head to toe.

The Marksman’s paralysis effect was a short-range skill, and when used against equipment of similar rank and high scores, its effectiveness was fleeting, vanishing after only a few seconds.

"Today is the first day of the summit. The CEO has taken all the senior executives to attend the meetings," Zhang Wu explained.

Hu Yanqing had previously been quite shy, but today she was unexpectedly open with me. However, at this moment, a flush of red spread across her face.

Suddenly, a strange laughter echoed in her ears, startling Ye Junyi from her sleep. She slowly opened her eyes to see a hazy expanse of pink.

The man’s right knee rose slowly, his entire leg forming an inverted "V." He raised his knee with such measured deliberation that it felt as if he were hoisting up the very heavens.

At this moment, the long black staff underwent a bizarre transformation. The originally smooth surface began to melt, flowing in rivulets toward the black hilt, and the outline of a peculiar longsword slowly emerged.

Three hundred years ago, Qi Huan’s smile had been so radiant, devoid of any bitterness or guile. But now, her smile carried traces of sorrow and indifference.

Rhaegar lay on the ground, eyes tightly shut, looking no different from someone who had lost consciousness due to severe injury. He was gambling that those who arrived would be Horne and his predecessor’s companions, rather than enemies or strangers.

At this moment, the Crown Werewolf outside the stone cave had ordered his subordinates to cease fire, his glowing blue wolf eyes fixed on Long Fei, wondering what kind of scheme the man was concocting.

Although the journey had begun and nothing could be changed, the group, bored by the long trek, began to argue about the matter once more, treating it as a form of entertainment.

Although those two were also inner-sect disciples, no one dared to contradict them. Even though some of the inner-sect disciples here cultivated under various elders, as long as Xiao Jianli was in charge, these two were the most powerful figures among all the inner-sect disciples.

"Brother Ling, how long will you stay before you have to return to the World Beyond the Heavens?" Peining asked, her head still bowed.

After selling off several key players this season, Lazio’s performance plummeted, and they were now reduced to fighting Bologna for the final UEFA Cup spot.

Because Long Fei and his companions had acted with such discretion, no one suspected them from start to finish.

Long Kuang’s face was filled with shock. No wonder the formation mages had once incited the siege of the two great empires.
