When Su Meiqi walked into the greenhouse, Cao Mang was still floating on the surface of the swimming pool. He picked up a bath towel, motioned for Cao Mang to come ashore, and brought up the matter.

"I have a feeling Qiao Peipei is suspicious!"

Cao Mang asked calmly, "What makes you say that?"

"The Qiao family are local tyrants in Qing County. She claimed her family was raided by bandits and that she wasn't even home..."

He must unleash his sandstorm ability several times a day; he just feels uncomfortable unless he buries himself in sand, ending up leaving the entire first floor in a constant state of blowing sand.

Accompanied by a loud crash, Leighton was sent flying backward along with his sword, slamming heavily against the wall of the spectator stand. He coughed up a mouthful of blood and was instantly defeated.

To be honest, most people's attention was naturally focused on Xu Hai, but as the team leader and instructor for West Lake University, his attention was undoubtedly fixed on his own students.

Not far away, those students watching Xu Hai being attacked by zombies couldn't help letting out a gasp of shock.

Shinya Kadokura suppressed his inner excitement. Holding the materials infused with three types of power, he devoutly and meticulously calibrated the equipment power of the medal manufacturing device.

After all, the Yu and Gu families shared a profound bond of friendship. Meeting with elders should have been a joyous occasion, yet for a long time, Yu Qing had held very little affection for this Aunt Mu.

Yun Xuan, of course, had no idea what would happen later. Back when Xiang Qin broke through to the Spirit King realm in the underground volcano, the inner demon's domain had dragged him in, evolving up to this point. Afterward, he woke Xiang Qin up, and together they shattered the demon seed's avatar—the old crone. The inner demon world disintegrated, and Xiang Qin escaped.

Hearing this, Wang Feng was overjoyed. He had only felt that the item was extraordinary and grabbed it to see what it was, never expecting it to be the control disk of the Eighteen True Thunders Formation. His heart surged with intense excitement.

Jin Lei and the others listened very carefully while habitually taking out their communicators to record the audio. This was a mandatory procedure for reporting after every mission: record the report and send it to the consortium for word-for-word analysis.

Sun Ce staggered a few steps, casting a panicked glance toward the distant valley, but he heard only the calls of birds and the chirping of cicadas, seeing no further trace of the beauty's fleeting path.

"Why do you ask about this?" He looked somewhat puzzled, but then a terrifying thought flashed through his mind. "You don't mean... you don't mean you want to challenge the Heavenly Ranking!" He found it hard to believe.

"Yan Feng, your master cannot come for the time being. However, she foresaw that this war holds some peril, so she urged me to watch over you," said Tianjue.

In this wondrous moment, Xuanyuan Yan Feng only knew how to feel heartache for Wen Guxue, completely ignoring whatever scolding came out of her mouth as he dashed straight inside, unstoppable by anyone.

The red light eventually vanished, but the entire canyon was filled with violent spiritual energy, which also began to dissipate continuously as time passed.

"Assistant Mo, when will Mingcheng be back? Can I wait for him here?" Song Qin approached Mo Fei and asked.

If it weren't for the fact that his parents—who were originally among the Creators—turned into spirits at that time and awakened the spirits of the Six Realms, inadvertently trapping these resentful spirits here, how could the Six Realms have known the peace they enjoyed today?

The two of them pondered for a long time. The spiritual swords below were still darting about wildly, but they were merely trapped within the lower thirty feet or so. Although a few flying swords occasionally swept through the upper thirty feet, they were few and far between.

"My mom found out that you helped me borrow the money, and she insists on coming to thank you!" Fang Ziyu bit her lip, forcing herself to squeeze out a smile while a flicker of awkwardness crossed her eyes.

He used all his strength to wrestle control of the golem away from the giant, barely managing to keep the golem in a mindless, unresponsive state of suspended animation, though he simply had no hands to spare to dispel the magic cast upon it.

"No one has ever hit me in the head twice on the very first encounter. So this is what you look like after fusion; your aura is quite impressive indeed, but you have truly angered the hell out of me!" Below, the Flame Dragon roared.
