28 Cause and Effect

Lin Zishuang was finishing the last sip of mushroom soup when she saw two wolves with glowing green eyes. She let out a sharp scream and huddled close to Feng Tianyou.

"Can't I? Aunt Zheng, I really just want to sleep with you. How about..." Shen Lingfei struggled for a long time but could not find a plausible excuse.

Zhuo Junyue furrowed his brows slightly. Were the assassin organization and the research institute hounding the Zhuo family just because they wanted to develop a virus?

However, when Nangong Hao crossed the park and saw the scene in the commercial district with his own eyes, he realized that the situation was far more complex than he had imagined.

Feng Lingyun and Shang Qingyu exchanged glances, their expressions grave. Why had Maturo brought so many experts, and why was he being so ostentatious? What was he planning?

Thinking of the improvements gained by the Level 6 base, Nangong Hao felt a surge of excitement. The Level 6 base was his greatest trump card; after ten days, the base—upgraded by consuming the wealth accumulated by countless generations across the Golden Peninsula—would possess enough power to turn the entire world upside down.

Tian Ben looked left and right. With such a wide area, setting up defenses against cavalry was far from easy.

As soon as Gan Ning unleashed his ultimate technique, a massive water dragon emerged, crashing violently into the naval camp.

Gu Mingzhu watched him make the call nervously, only to see his expression darken even further once he hung up.

Seeing this, everyone’s pupils constricted, and they looked at Liao Chen with even greater solemnity and awe. It seemed that every prodigy viewed Liao Chen as their greatest rival—or rather, as an opponent they absolutely had to defeat.

In this era where appearances matter, as long as their image is good, the Long'er Team need not worry about lacking sponsors, even if they were truly just a team of pretty faces.

Wang Yuzhi could not understand a word Zhou Fan was saying, and assuming he was afraid, he became even more arrogant.

Luffy was still fishing, though his results were always pathetic. In most cases, his catch didn't even reach one-tenth of his appetite.

Those sea spiders were like spring-loaded machines, leaping away in a flash. The seawater posed no obstacle to them as they vanished back into the shadows.

This was undoubtedly a signal to the world that Aoshi Kuangjiang would soon ascend to the throne and become the true helm of the Aoshi Empire.

Liu Xiao smiled, raised his left hand to smooth his hair, and inadvertently revealed a watch on his cuff.

Their strength was not immense, but they were an endless annoyance to Hunter and his group. Those they fought head-on were manageable, but the most irritating were the demonized beasts known as Spike Demons. It was unclear if they had evolved from rats or something else, but they had become a distinct and widespread threat.

Lowering her head, she saw the blood trickling from the man's chest, staining his white undershirt crimson... Her gaze turned cold, sharp as a sword as she fixed it upon the frail figure standing frozen before her.

But at that moment, the three ghost arrows, imbued with the spirit and willpower of the Jade-Faced Demon Monkey, pierced Xingyue’s body. The immense energy contained within the arrows erupted inside her, rampaging and wreaking havoc.

Before the age of twenty, the two had already embraced a retired life, beginning to travel the world.

Perhaps still harboring a grudge from when his back molars were knocked out last time, and emboldened by having backup and a larger group, Big Back-Hair shouted and charged forward, swinging his fists.

The mysterious man’s tone was calm yet radiated arrogance; clearly, seeing the Dark Night trapped and unable to escape, he was quite satisfied with his self-created technique.

Naturally, within a thousand-mile radius of Wuyang Mountain, there were basically no formidable beasts or monsters, so nothing else happened during the day's journey.

"Spirit Recovery Powder, a Spirit Recovery Powder bordering on a Tier 4 pill, has the effect of instantly restoring a small amount of spiritual energy. It is the foundation of the Tier 7 Spirit Recovery Pill. Are you sure you want to refine a Spirit Recovery Powder of such difficulty?" Wang Jinjin emphasized.

"Crown Prince? What Crown Prince? Could it be that I have already reached the underworld?" Weiyang was filled with suspicion.

"Yes." Wang Jinjin nodded. While blocking Princess Xiaoyu, she found it strange that Da Wuhui would dodge Niu Yijian. Could it be that he had a grudge against the Eighth-Tier Celestial Niu Yijian?

"Sutu, get out here!" Xue Yi suddenly roared in anger, his gaze chilling as he glared at a corner of the wall.

On the outskirts of the waste planet, the area was sealed by purple lightning. Not even spiritual sense could penetrate it, let alone hope for Chen Fei and the others to escape from the planet.

Regarding why she slapped Situ Chenyi’s face, Weiyang was quite frank. Of course, she hit him to wake him up, not to hurt him; she naturally hit where it wouldn't cause injury.

"He has already become something non-human, which saves us the trouble of doing it ourselves." Zhang Chu was not surprised; with Zhuangzhuang as a great god, such methods were to be expected.

The head administrator responsible for credit exchanges and the one in charge of the Peerless Sword Embryo had both followed along.

Fan Lang had been quite relaxed, but suddenly, he sensed danger approaching. His sharp eyes locked onto the flying needle, and he struck out with his fist.

For ordinary humans, drawing the dark essence of this place into their bodies would not only fail to increase their cultivation but could even cause damage to their meridians and dantian.

It was almost impossible to cover all the details at once, so this section ends here, and we move to the next point.

"Dian Kongzhong of the Five Elements Sect, Xuan Shui Gate, is here to seek your guidance," he said in a muffled voice as he bowed.

Although the academy had conducted a thorough investigation—with the disciplinary committee led by Sandy vetting every student, especially the freshmen, since the attacks began after their arrival—nothing had been found.

"Hover technology isn't as fun as the Flying Nimbus. I'm done with it, let's go back." Bulma hurriedly composed herself and replied to Wang Feng’s question.

"This... alright. Of course, you may. Phantom Square City is yours; I was merely managing it on your behalf. If there is a more suitable candidate, I am willing to hand over control. It is entirely up to your arrangement." Lu Qingping returned to her calm demeanor and nodded, though it was evident she felt a lingering sense of loss.

Mu Xiao had just activated a summoning spell in the room, with Lan Ling and Wen Jiaren by his side channeling spiritual energy to him. However, his cultivation, meridians, and mental energy could not withstand a summoning of such magnitude.
