05. The Mountain Lord Battles the Ghosts
A monster.
A great monster that can speak human language!
The crowd’s gazes turned toward Juan, the monkey trainer, their eyes filled with a complex mix of emotions: surprise, confusion, panic... and even chilling terror. It was impossible to distinguish exactly how many emotions were there, but the well-coordinated, defensive formation they had maintained broke, leaving a gap.
When did the monkey trainer manage to tame such a great monster? How could they, who were all well-acquainted with him, have been kept in the dark?
His secrecy was truly impeccable.
However, inner disciples who wished to see the Dean were not guaranteed an audience. Usually, they would arrive only to be told that the Dean was in secluded meditation, away on business, or otherwise occupied, and would be asked to wait in the gatehouse. This wait would drag on indefinitely until the disciples, realizing there was no hope, would eventually leave on their own.
Within just one month, seven or eight miners had died in Song Xiangyi’s mine. Before the first batch of gold had even been produced, the compensation, funeral expenses, and the pressure of dealing with the miners' families and the government’s inquiries had already left him overwhelmed.
"No, it’s because he had his eyes on you, and I stood in his way, so he’s jealous," Tang Feng said with a laugh.

He could almost see Er Lang and the others as they rushed down from the jungle, firing a few shots as they moved.
Although the other party insisted repeatedly that they were fine, the way they limped while walking made it better to take them to the hospital first.
Although the Dragon Kingdom was developed, there were still rural areas and even places without internet access. They could only look at the live-streaming threads on the forums, imagining the scene of the New Year’s Festival. Many could not help but use their mobile data, though before turning it on, they first had to make sure they had topped up enough credit.
"You are Sister Ru." Seeing An Biru, who was panicked and tear-streaked, Tang Feng could not help but sigh at how small the world was.
At the same time, the gloomy atmosphere that had shrouded the military camp vanished completely, and sunlight once again illuminated the camp's grounds.
As the spaceship landed, Wang Xia used the final two satellite nuclear bombs to destroy the mountain climbing path, blocking the path of the bugs... Everyone successfully boarded the rescue ship.
Jiang Gan and Zhang Xiu were brought to Yufuluo’s main tent. Seeing the unpleasant expression on Yufuluo’s face, Jiang Gan immediately understood that Yufuluo must have heard some rumors. He asked with a smile, "Isn't the Great Chanyu discussing strategies with the elders? Has a conclusion already been reached?"
Having made up his mind, he frantically channeled his Nether Art, fully mobilizing the nether energy and meticulously injecting it into Bo Ning-shuang’s heart through the palms of his hands.

However, no one would blame Zhou Yu, because they all knew that Zhou Yu had already done his absolute best.
The car pulled up to the side of the road. Watching Ye Ye sitting in the chair, checking her phone from time to time, looking at the road, and tilting her head occasionally, she looked extremely adorable. Ye Ye was cute and innocent; if this matter were true, it would have nothing to do with her. She was definitely innocent.
He had not expected that just after entering the outer realms, it would prove so useful amidst the void storms and spacetime turbulence—it was truly a stroke of blind luck.
Lin Yuxun felt as if, in the blink of an eye, the two of them had arrived outside the city. The shackles she had failed to break through for days had been shattered so easily?
Suddenly, Xu Shu coughed twice, waved his hand with a swoosh to put away the pagoda in the sky, and stood with his hands behind his back, looking up at the sky with a calm and indifferent expression, as if nothing had happened at all.
Wu Yu saw that the corpse monster intended to treat him as a meal; he immediately let out a cold snort, activated his precious body, and threw a punch directly at the leader of the corpse monsters nearest to him.
