Chapter 36: Ascending the Mountain to Claim the Treasure (Part II)

Compared to the previous jungle, this place was nearly at the goblin warrior’s lair where the goblin warriors gathered. As long as they killed it there, the dungeon would be considered complete.

“Rat spirit, without this Black Wind, how do you expect to avoid capture? Maybe I’ll spare your life,” Jie Tan shouted.

I felt like Jin Fan was my lucky star; ever since meeting him, everything in my life had been slowly improving. Yet in my heart, I could never forgive my father. That secret would remain forever locked away in my soul. I had no intention of telling Jin Fan because I feared he wouldn’t be able to accept it.

After receiving Riley’s response, Earls nodded lightly, stepped aside, and with a flicker of his figure, appeared several meters away. By the next flicker, he had completely vanished from sight.

“Injured? What happened? Who hurt you?” Alex asked sternly upon hearing Rex say he was hurt.

The bridal sedan had arrived. Gu Lin’an sat astride a tall horse at the gate, clad in bright red wedding attire but with a cold, expressionless face that showed none of the joy usually seen on such a festive day.

Tian Ci nodded and then, accompanied by disciples of the Demon Gate, sat down in his resting area.

The gate guards had just received Chen Zihan’s notice. Before Tang Ya could arrive at the entrance, the gate was already opened. As Tang Ya passed through, two guards even smiled at her. But as soon as she stepped outside, the gate was swiftly shut behind her.

Patchy, his eyes vacant, clenched his teeth and furrowed his brows involuntarily. It felt as if countless thoughts were suddenly stuffed into his mind, the throbbing pain unbearable.

“Mr. Field…” Nick Fury softly called out to Earls, interrupting his murmuring.

Upon hearing Long Tian’s words, the ghostly figure said nothing further, turned, and prepared to leave.

Shortly after, behind Liuli Jun came an elder and an octopus-like NPC with tentacles all over its body, approaching Ba Dao.

With no one blocking the way ahead and no pursuers behind, he was in no great hurry. Gathering all his focus, he activated his eyes to observe carefully, hoping to discern some clue.

He had to see what the palace was truly like. So they arrived at the palace and unexpectedly encountered Hua Erbo and Xiao Xianzi, who had possessed Lu Li’s body.

Xiao Xianzi racked her brains trying to recall Li Bai’s life but couldn’t even remember the age at which he died, slapping her head and berating herself for being foolish.

The disciples around heard everything clearly. Who would dare step forward to risk their life now? Better to protect themselves quickly.

There was also the plan involving thousands of micro-satellites. When the first satellite launched, the network was 3G. By the time the last one went up, it might be 7G or 8G. These satellites flew in space and couldn’t be recalled for upgrades. How could they avoid falling behind?

“That’s a Qian Kun pouch!” At this moment, two elderly women from the Su family suddenly narrowed their eyes in shock, exclaiming incredulously.

When she arrived at Liu Xin’s house, Liu Xin was indeed still awake, watching TV in the living room. Although her pajamas were a different style from the night before, the neckline remained low. If she repeated her previous actions, she would still be strikingly attractive.

The Buddha statue radiated light as if it were manifesting divine power, and the atmosphere around became even more sacred.

“Young master, I know you don’t believe it. Come, follow me to the foot of the mountain,” said the guide, leading Xiang Lu and Agashi to the base of Tianyu Mountain.

Lü Xiaoying remained seated, not moving. Bai Feifei truly regarded herself too highly, her condescending tone irritating to all.

But as soon as Bu Haoqi’s mind stirred, the witch insects would devour the host’s vital energy within seconds.

Gu Siwan and Li Zhien quickly stood up. From behind them came a rustling sound.

They walked several streets, with Shanshan clinging to Mao Zheng’s sleeve because she saw many paper effigies and paper horses on the street, similar to those held by people at funerals.

Du Ruofei’s gaze softened, his thoughtful eyes partially hidden beneath his lowered brows.

Blood gushed instantly from the wound as the massive beast’s body collapsed with a thunderous crash, kicking up a cloud of dust.

Gradually, Mu Lan understood. Earlier, the “dead fish eye” transformed into a streak of light entering her eye, granting her the sudden ability to recognize treasures like a treasure detector. That was why she could perceive the effects of the strength pill and, with inner vision, identify the celestial fetus inside the belly.

Mu Lan did not know exactly what the exam was about. Such an upright man as Xia Canghai had not told him, but he looked forward to it.

After speaking, the two elders of the Chang Kong Merchants’ Guild followed Luo Ping’s group at a distance, planning to find an opportunity to launch a surprise attack.

“Second uncle, want to have a contest of shooting speed and endurance with the bow?” Gao Chong teased. Actually, during tuning, his second uncle was already confident about all the parameters.

Seeing the situation, I exhaled in relief. After all, two unintelligent bosses wouldn’t adapt. They’d be easily led around, so it should still be possible to defeat them.

“Don’t worry, I’m fine.” Su Yan smiled but suddenly fell silent, hesitating to speak further.

“That should settle it!” Ironwood Yun said slowly with a faint smile, descending gradually into the deep pit where the absolute wolf had fallen.

Li Yu rejoiced upon hearing the news, leaving Zhou Zhong in charge of one division of the transport camp to guard Mian County, while he personally led the main force to break camp and march on Xingyuan.

The soldiers of Baichuan City and Dahang City had long retreated to a safe distance far away. Now they watched the battle above with fixed gazes, faces full of shock.

Gao Chong summoned Princess Mingyue Zhu, Stilwell, Ding Li, and many others. Wang Yan’s wife, Lady Yan, Chief Historian Fan Zeng, and other subordinates and generals also came to witness the event.

The sentry on duty was from the camp guarding the city today. Originally, another camp was supposed to be on duty, but their officers had all been detained by Wang Jizhao. None of those authorized to command had returned. Taking advantage of the situation, the captain from the other camp bullied people and sent this group over.

However, as the counselor counted the votes, the numbers kept increasing. Chen Tianxiu began to feel something was wrong since the tally exceeded twenty votes.

“Hmph! I believe you’ll talk,” Chen Tianxiu said with a grimace, picking up a sharp wooden stick and advancing toward the hill’s eye.
