Volume One, Chapter 54: Zhu Youjian Outwits Chiyou, Li Shaoweng Strikes Down Zhu Youjian!
Chi You’s expression changed sharply, clearly struck a nerve by Zhu Youjian’s words. The two of them were now evenly matched in cultivation; he could still contend with the Flame Emperor, even overpowering him at times.
For her, nothing was more important than the safety of the child growing in Gao Yunjin’s womb. That was why, at the beginning, she had wanted to eliminate the threat once and for all by terminating Gao Yunjin’s pregnancy, ensuring she would never bear children again.
“Yun Hao, prepare yourself. In ten days, we will open a miniature wormhole. The Su Emperor and I will enter the battlefield of gods and demons to find a suitable location to establish a base, from which we will continuously send forth prodigies and even entire legions,” the Chao Emperor’s ancestor said calmly.
Then, exerting all his strength to maintain the surrounding energy, even though Lei Yuan’s thunder was extraordinary, Li Bai could only hope that after Lei Yuan’s full eruption and unrestrained display, it might be possible to break through that barrier. He held onto that hope as he waited.
From her perspective, if one were rational, it should be clear that this child was absolutely not to be kept.
At the crucial moment, he said nothing more. Gao Yunjin frowned but, thinking it was he who sent her to find Yi Linwei, she sincerely thanked him before leaving.
The deed, the agreement, and the keys were obviously prepared long ago, indicating that they had planned to give this villa to him even before he arrived.
In fact, without him saying it, others had already thought of this, but what could they do? It was an open conspiracy. From what had happened earlier in the desert, they simply had no way to resolve it.
“That’s true,” Fu Xiaocheng said. “Not only do you look like my brother, but your personality, temper, and character are similar, too. You probably understand each other better than we do. But, even if you resemble him, you’re not exactly the same—you’re better.” Fu Xiaocheng was protective.
Moreover, the human race was weak now, with few possessing profound cultivation. Cultivating the Way of Immortals required immense time and accumulation, step by step, ascending to the peak.
Now, Zhao Ling’er clearly did not recognize Li Xiaoyao, meaning the events from ten years ago when he returned had not occurred. Her appearance on the Immortal Spirit Island was merely an effect of the storyline correction.
“When the time comes, you lowly disciples must be ready to receive their evaluations at any moment, so don’t slack off,” the elder Bai warned the servants.
This formation was no ordinary one. Especially with the inclusion of trapping arrays, killing arrays, and mist arrays, any single one of these could delay time, making it impossible to pass through the Immortal Bridge within an hour. This was why cultivation alone was insufficient to cross the bridge.
Xini’s head was pierced through by Meng Feifan, the red and white matter splattered everywhere. With a ‘slap’, she collapsed, falling atop Weiwei. The gushing blood instantly stained both Weiwei and the sheets crimson.
“Who are you people? Why are you hurting grandmother?” Zhao Ling’er turned her head at the sound, anger blazing in her eyes as she demanded.
In this way, Fatty Wang also boarded Liu Yibin’s treacherous ship, successfully becoming another test subject.
The cultivation method was very orthodox. After the Sword Saint comprehended the Immortal Way, he could wrestle with those from Heaven’s Court, showing how formidable the technique was. Swordsmanship was a common means of cultivation; even if he later switched to other methods, it likely wouldn’t be a problem.
In his hand, the Spring Snow Flowing Silver sword was sheathed in flames and lightning, radiating silver light, domineering and unrestrained.
“Everyone, don’t panic. Our eldest brother must have lost his soul. Allow this humble monk to perform a ritual to summon back his spirit,” the chubby monk said solemnly.
