Chapter 139: The Abyss-Void Barrier
I made up a random lie: "The Palace of the Sixth Yama is in chaos, so I sneaked out."
Hearing this, the Three Hermits of the Pool exchanged glances, their expressions turning extremely odd before returning to normal a moment later.
"Can you get us a few sets of that silicone stuff?" the bald one asked with a cheeky smile.
Seeing that these ghosts were not very intelligent, I completely lost my nervousness.
......
With that, she tossed the burnt fish into the sea and picked out a fresh one to try grilling again.
Takagi ignored them, staring down at the tips of his platform shoes as he awkwardly walked forward.
While Long Xi held his breath and listened intently to their conversation, Gu Xihe's next sentence made his heart contract violently once more.
After all, high school coursework was relatively intense, leaving little time for part-time jobs. Coupled with the fact that high school tuition was actually more expensive than college tuition, she had ultimately chosen not to attend high school.
Since the few of them communicated entirely through divine sense, and because their cultivation levels far exceeded the ordinary standards of the realm of cultivation, others had no way of knowing what they were discussing.
Chen Wang truly lived up to his reputation as a well-trained expert; even while driving, he kept a close eye on the surrounding environment. Drawing the curtains inside the Mercedes-Benz made it utterly impossible for anyone outside to see anything, offering far better concealment than window tinting.
The void great fissure spread outward. The purple-gold saber slashed down once again. The overwhelming pressure shocked the air. Su Chen tried his utmost to slash out with a sword, but he was blasted far away, blood continuously dripping from the corners of his mouth, and his sternum fractured, plunging him into a sense of despair.
When the two sides crossed paths, the expressions of Third Brother and his men were filled with astonishment, and even Third Brother himself looked panic-stricken. According to Third Brother's calculations, Fang Susu should currently be locked in a bloody turf war with him in the South District; why on earth would she appear here?
I was furious. Glancing at Su Yichen, who stood nearby with her arms crossed watching the show, I knew she intended to give me a severe warning so that I would remember this place was Number Two High, and that she was the big boss a grade above me.
Yang Ji, who was responsible for the defense of the South Gate, shared a largely similar situation to Li Jingsi at the West Gate. Although they encountered an attack by the Later Jin forces, most of them were Han troops with virtually no combat effectiveness, nor did they suffer a breach of the city walls like the East Gate; their total casualties amounted to only a dozen or so men.
Xie Wanling cast a glance at Li Leilei, her brows furrowed deeply. She felt that there was always something rather strange about Li Leilei.
In that case, it was absolutely impossible for him to pull it off alone, which meant he must have someone supporting him.
"Step aside!" the Crown Prince said with a cold glare at Eunuch Li, flanked by several bodyguards whose swords still had fresh blood dripping from the tips onto the ground.
Although Yun Yechuang had been sealed here previously, back then he had no knowledge of this underground palace's existence.
The captain of the agents and one other operative were uninjured, though exhaustion was evident on their faces. Nonetheless, eager to participate in the operation, they straightened up to show they were fit for duty.
Just as Ye Hao was about to question Zhuge Xinwei, Old Master Zhuge Yunlong and Yan Anmin had already stepped forward.
Xu Lie's hand, resting on Wen Ning's head, froze instantly, followed by a tingling sensation that traveled straight from his fingertips to his brain.
Close at hand, Chang Yong felt a twinge of cowardice, terrified that the rat would pounce and bite someone. Yet at that exact moment, the rat seemed startled, turned around, and scuttled forward waving its claws, right into the pre-set net.
Working at the police station, he had seen his fair share of people, and someone like Wang Xiuqin was not a first for him.
After a while, seeing that the disciples had all quieted down and the atmosphere had settled, Guy satisfiedly nodded and began introducing the upcoming Chunin Exams.
She hesitated. Lately, her feelings toward Imperial Concubine Xue had grown increasingly close, and she truly regarded Concubine Xue as her master. While her loyalty did not quite reach the point of dying for her, she was nonetheless the person most loyal to her.
