Volume 1, Chapter 62: I'm Going to Bring Her Back
In the suburbs of the Imperial Capital, Mingshu and her entourage stayed behind to care for the ailing and injured Ming siblings.
Fu Zhixun, currently serving in the Imperial Academy, knew nothing of these matters. He had already pulled three consecutive all-nighters to finally complete the compilation of the first volume of the historical records.
Hu Ao smiled faintly and said softly, "Here... is the realm of immortals." With that, before Qianyun could react, he grabbed Qianyun's hand and vanished instantly. When they reappeared, they were already deep within Cloud Dream City.
"Heh, you can move only because I haven't messed with you. As for the others, they've all been tampered with by me. So, now you know the extent of my ability, right? Hurry up, you have just over ten seconds left. That's more than enough time for you to spit out a few words," Li Xin stared at the boss and said.
This was his first thought; otherwise, it would have been impossible for these people to know his travel route.
To the left was a sheer precipice, and to the right lay a pitch-black forest. Most people would assume the way out lay to the right.
Having been inside for so long without encountering any attacks, Yun Weiyang naturally assumed that this formation was merely meant to trap people.
——A general who was absent yesterday and returned to the city today, and one holding a military post outside the capital at that—who else could it be?
One could only see the cold gleam flashing in the lamplight, thrashing about like a churning flood dragon as it continuously slashed at the Commuter Bureau operative. Torn fabric fluttered wildly in all directions, caught in the turbulent wake of the passing train.
Electric arcs danced frantically across his muscular torso. As his clenched fist uncurled, currents of electricity intertwined between his fingers, while the modulator at his left hip vibrated in warning.
Gaozi Yu tried his best to ignore the strange physical sensations her touch evoked in him and strode toward the aircraft.
The auxiliary standard-bearer troops were currently lined up waiting outside the camp gates, having avoided any direct conflict with either the camp guards or Bao Chao's personal guards.
Upon reaching the parking lot and opening the car door, he heard the roar of an engine. Gu Beichen frowned slightly just as a harsh screech of brakes sounded right beside him.
Qu Weiwei looked at He Yining like this, and the corners of her mouth suddenly curled into a smile—a bloodthirsty hatred brimming with world-destroying madness.
Although Tiansheng and the others were completely baffled at the moment, prompted by Red Boy’s meaningful glances, they had no choice but to put on arrogant airs and swagger right past those demonic cultivators.
Qiao Sufufen gracefully stepped out of the restroom, casting a deeply meaningful gaze at Han Junyu, who sat at the same table. Her eyes flickered, brimming with calculating light.
"My name is Qin Feng, and I am the Standing Vice Mayor of Yincheng City. Geng Le is my second brother. I have come to visit Uncle Geng and Aunt Chen. May I ask if they are both in?" Qin Feng said politely.
Ten minutes later, the three of them took the elevator back to the studio quite satisfied. It was dinner time, and people were trickling back into the studio. After chatting briefly about the game's status, everyone logged back on to grind levels, each minding their own business and returning to their respective duties.
Shortly after, Tang Youyou likewise ordered them to halt the attacks of the armored catapults, as both of them knew better than anyone that these NPCs possessed real lives.
Zhuying drew a sharp intake of breath, not daring to ponder the deeper meaning behind Yun Ci's words, and bowed his head to accept the order. Seeing this, Danxin hurriedly dressed Chuxiu properly before letting Zhuying carry her away.
Once the chill in his body receded, the sensation of pain returned with a vengeance. And as soon as it struck, it was a heart-rending, excruciating agony, as if something were tearing at his skin, flesh, tendons, and bones.
Suddenly, Chu Xiao thought of the Ancestor of the Blood Sea, who was born within the Asura Blood Sea. Could it be that his breakthrough to the ultimate bloodline was also due to the True God's Tomb?
