Volume 1, Chapter 25: They Are Not Convinced

Hearing this news, Yuan Lingqing felt a complex mix of emotions. Yet, as the sect leader, she quickly suppressed the turmoil rising within her.

"We have some very important matters to attend to now..." Yuan Lingqing rubbed her brow, hesitating as she tried to find the words.

Xu Lingchuan spoke in a cold, clear voice, cutting straight to the heart of the matter.

With them acting as pioneers, others followed suit, finally breaking the stalemate. Although there were still casualties due to carelessness, the breakthrough was better than anything they had achieved before.

"Tsk, you really don't know what's good for you; I'm trying to help you here." The spirit ignored his words and engaged the man in a fight directly.

Upon returning, Chen Jiatang refused to set foot in the old Ji family estate. She had once been the same; for over two years, she hadn't even dared to turn her head to look at the house next to the Ji residence. From the gate covered in tangled vines to the stone tables and stools in the courtyard, every corner of that home was filled with the shadow of her father.

Yi Lin knew that given her personality, if she truly wanted to do something, trying to dissuade her would likely be futile. He decided it would be best to inform Xiao Mojue later, just in case something were to happen.

On the verge of exhaustion, Taishu Bumie suddenly let out a fierce roar. A ferocious, black-faced deity manifested behind him, pouring a surge of dark energy into his body.

They did not entertain ordinary guests here; it was an strictly membership-based establishment. An annual membership card cost two hundred thousand, an amount exceeding the annual salary of an average person.

Mu Jingxu was outwardly a colonel in the military, and the Red Foxes could have held honorary positions within the military as well, but they chose not to. Instead, they retired completely, becoming ordinary civilians.

Chen Gouzi's proposal was intended for his lord's benefit, but the lord did not wish to accept his goodwill and declined.

Zuo Yuming had no choice but to follow Liu Zhiqing to the side, though he secretly braced himself; if necessary, he would have no choice but to kill her.

The snow was still falling, though less heavily than before. The ground was blanketed in white, and the distant mountains were white as well. Some monks had risen early to clear the snow, sweeping not just the courtyards but the steps as well. They endured the hardship themselves to ensure convenience for others.

Meanwhile, Golden Island, the largest leisure venue in Qingyuan City, remained brightly lit and bustling with noise until the dead of night. The sounds of singing and dancing drifted from within, whispering the endless secrets of this city that never slept.

"Hurry up and bring the wine! It’s not as dirty as your mind makes it out to be." Seeing the man terrified like a shivering quail, Wu Daxia was exasperated. He simply spread his hands and said helplessly.

In utter despair, he had come to the Mo Medical Hall in Chijing at Li Sheng's urging, holding the mentality of a "dead horse being treated as a live one." He had no expectations for the hall and didn't even believe Mo Yu would accurately diagnose his condition, let alone cure it.

It wasn't that she was delicate, but she felt a sense of grievance, and this feeling surged even more violently when she was all alone.

She remembered three years ago, when the school organized a group spring outing, Mo Yu and her classmates had climbed Sword Mountain once.

Remembering how he joked with a smile on his face as he watched the IG economic lead number continue to climb, it was clear he was in an excellent mood.

The dark shadow was so angry he slapped him directly. "Hey! Open your eyes and look properly! What kind of vision do you have? This is clearly the White-Faced Bao Longtu, can't you see the crescent moon on his forehead?" As he spoke, he held the fire starter up to illuminate it.

Ling Xiao immediately raised the Zixiao Thunder Hammer. Giving it his all, he activated the Zixiao Thunder Body. Suddenly, a vision appeared in the sky above him: a churning sea of thunder, silver light spilling forth, and electric snakes dancing wildly.
