Chapter 46: Charging into the Enemy Lines (Part Two)

The Mavia Club, Basement Level Three.

A partition wall divided off one-third of the parking lot. Behind it stood several heavily overloaded large freight trucks, each guarded front and rear by armed men in black robes and protective masks resembling crows. Club enforcers in gray suits opened the cargo containers and carried away the boxes of relics in batches. Visaf and Carmel stood nearby, watching in silence from beginning to end.

This was not the first time Visaf had—

Not long afterward, that bastard came out. There was no other expression to be seen on his face; he still wore that cold, detached, aristocratic air.

Though Qingyun had no spiritual power, much of his physical strength had recovered. He was almost at the entrance to the village, and Xiao Luo could not stop him no matter how hard he tried.

Even someone who was not blind could sense that Fairy Yao seemed to have two enormous characters written across her back, accompanied by an unmistakable sourness.

Wang Shan thought he must have seen incorrectly. He rubbed his eyes, and when he opened them again, four figures dressed in black were standing before him.

Mu Beihan took a sip of water and told Nie Nanfeng everything that had happened that day. He even made a point of saying that Yixing Luo had forbidden them from telling him, lest he worry.

“Senior Brother Li, the situation has already reached this point, and they are still holding back their strength? Judging from what is happening now, won’t it only be a matter of time before Cloud City is breached?” the man continued.

Ding Liuer frowned. Qi Mu was floating in midair. Above him, several practitioners of the Heavenly Inquiry Strange Gate attacked; below, several practitioners of the Earth Sect Strange Gate struck; while in between, practitioners of the Sword Aura Strange Gate, the Energy Meridian Strange Gate, and various other branches launched attacks at Qi Mu.

Afterward, Churan uploaded fifty thousand words from the completed manuscript. There were now twelve chapters online, totaling sixty-two thousand words.

About ten minutes later, Churan went to the Sea Blue Music website, logged into his account, and checked the statistics in the后台.

On the way back, he figured out quite a few things. After all, Shen Li had made the first move, and once he had gone berserk, he had killed anyone who crossed his path. Qi Shuang was not wrong to find a way to annihilate him.

Compared with the other two, Bolik was fairly amiable. More precisely, it was the old man who was not very friendly.

By now, Ye Ke had gained a fairly profound understanding of this world. Although the only thousand-year-old demons he had encountered in the mortal realm were Bai Suzhen, the Thousand-Year Fox Demon, the Old Tree Demon, and the Black Mountain Demon, he could still infer that there could not be very many thousand-year-old demons throughout the entire Great Chu Empire.

Since Lord Tong did not mind his poor chess skills, Gao Qiu stopped objecting. He went straight to Wu Yong to ask where the chessboard was kept, then brought over everything they needed. Sure enough, the two of them soon began playing at an unhurried pace.

Watching the two men exchange moves with an air of apparent familiarity, everyone wore smiles. As the atmosphere gradually grew livelier, Wei An glanced over the crowd, his gaze finally settling on Gu Yanling. The smile in his eyes took on a hint of deliberate overture.

How could two Blood Shadows that had only just been revived be sealed back into the nodes so easily? Blood threads spread outward, tearing through the flames covering the mutated Heaven-Piercing Bean before surging toward Gu Qingyu.

“Oh my, could it be that the new leader is about to make the final decision?”

She abruptly stopped humming. Before Lanni could finish speaking, Wang Manli opened her almond-shaped eyes wide.

Looking at Xiang Chunzao’s swollen red eyes and weary expression, he suddenly felt that she was still fragile at that moment. Telling her outright that he had come back because he was worried would only add to her burden.

These past few days, she had not even been eating breakfast, and still had to endure this kind of torment at noon and in the evening. The Moon Goddess nearly collapsed onto the bed.

After changing into clean clothes, the two of them went to Gao Qiu’s room. That was where their gathering would take place this time, and Gao Qiu was already making preparations.

Under ordinary circumstances, it would have been nearly impossible for Lu Ren to move against Old Master Huang. But Lu Ren happened to possess a strategy guide, and knew exactly where he should begin.
