Chapter 45: Exploring the Perilous Realm, Braving and Breaking the Predicament

The dark shadow landed, and it was none other than Zhao Xuanming, who had previously been severely punished by Niu Yichen.

This guy truly lingered like a ghost!

"Well, if it isn't Brother Zhao? How have you become so dark after just a few days apart? Did you sign up for a tanning package?" Niu Yichen joked on the surface, while secretly remaining on high alert. This old fellow was definitely up to no good.

Zhan Qingxue stood beside Niu Yichen, looking...

The footsteps stopped in front of the half-open door. The newcomer gently pushed the door open to see the man lying on the sofa, his chest slightly exposed, his suit trousers wrinkled, his long hair somewhat disheveled, eyes closed, and his handsome face lightly flushed with wine.

The various Dao lords looked at one another; the person before them was indeed Duan Yan, without a doubt.

Young Master Qingcheng had persuaded a certain Rong-surnamed Golden Core cultivator from the Asterism Villa to rescue the cultivators imprisoned in the dungeon of the Thousand Demons Sect.

Logically speaking, he should not have lost to Duan Yan, who was only at the initial stage of Foundation Establishment. After all, disciples of the Dragon Slaying Gate were not as fragile as those of the Joyful Union Sect; they could take a beating, and their foundations were quite solid.

"Half-Step Nowhere" was a three-story building constructed of red bricks, looking somewhat aged in appearance. Its vermilion wooden doors stood wide open, with ghosts and spirits passing in and out.

The greeting was extremely polite and courteous, delivered with a modest and gentle attitude, accompanied by a faint smile on a clear, pretty face that instantly won people's favor.

"So this is the truth behind the Blood-Veined Curse. Zhou Junyi, you truly are calculating and ruthless." Lu Ran narrowed his eyes.

Xiao Chengli watched her walk swaying step by step toward the hallway, shook his head slightly, and withdrew his gaze.

According to what the three ghosts had said, this Seven-Orificed Exquisite Heart was right here in Twin Towers Town. Who on earth was the formidable expert behind these three ghosts, and how did he know it was located in Twin Towers Town?

The attendant went through all sorts of hardships to complete this task. Initially heading to the right-hand room, they later learned it was actually on the left side of the second floor.

If one were to use a single sentence to describe someone's current situation after being reborn into this lifetime, perhaps nothing could be more concise and clear than the eight characters: "A sister, a house, and both parents dead."

Gu Chen looked at the retreating figure of Xia Shiguang, feeling even more curious. Liang Yunyang had given her such an expensive pink diamond necklace, yet Xia Shiguang hadn't turned it down. What kind of gift had Jiang Sichen actually given her?

This acupoint was located just below the navel. As a young man, Qin Yang naturally found it inconvenient to massage Han Qingqing himself, so he could only teach her to do it herself. Although Han Qingqing lacked inner Qi and the massage effect would undoubtedly be greatly diminished, it would still retain some degree of effectiveness.

Attacking the territories of the Qi State, they won battle after battle, driving Liu Bei to turtle up in Linzi for a desperate defense, not daring to engage in battle again.

Without waiting for Jun Yan's reply, Chou Luo happily took Caiwei and went outside. Jun Yan could only turn his attention back to his own body, calling out to the spiritual fetus.

Beside him, he discovered Jun Yan once again, except that the latter still kept his eyes tightly closed and clearly had not yet awakened. Just as he wanted to wake him up, a voice came from beside his ear.

Chu Linlin refused to agree, leaving them with no choice but to bribe someone from the restaurant. Yet the restaurant staff were not easily bribed; a few thousand yuan simply wasn't worth taking the risk.

"Hmph! Without me, you wouldn't be making this money at all. What is wrong with me taking ninety percent of the profits?" Lu Yuanfan said unconcernedly.

His heart remained unsettled for a long time. No matter how he imagined it, he never expected such a situation to occur. The fall of Shouchun City could only be blamed on the Wu army's lack of preparedness.

Yet he held not a shred of confidence in his heart. There were simply too many; even without seeing them, the sound alone was like tens of thousands of galloping horses surging forward.

"Living here isn't the only option. Otherwise, you can sleep on the streets like me, or find some place of your own." He had saved the Sea God for the sake of a quest, not to bring back some master to wait upon. He refused to believe that a god of the sea could not find a place to live.

A gentle whisper accompanied by a slight gust of warm air brushed against his ear. The warm air and the childish, spoiled voice tickled Zheng Ming's ear, making his heart itch.
