Chapter 127: The Most Suitable Choice (Second Update)
Shen Yi felt a pang of sympathy for his Commander-in-Chief.
The man had spent so many years in solitude, and now, having finally encountered a woman who captured his heart, he had begun to harbor thoughts of settling down. Yet, who would have guessed that she might not hold the Commander in any regard at all? It was no wonder that when Jiang Bing returned that time, he had remarked with a strange expression that the lady seemed to have little patience for the Commander.
Shen Yi sighed inwardly. No matter how painful a sore might be, it had to be lanced thoroughly for the wound to heal.
It was unclear what Jung Yoon-jung had said to Park Ji-ho, but five minutes later, Park Ji-ho walked back to Krystal Jung’s side with a smile, as if nothing had happened, and resumed filming.
Shortly after, Park Ji-ho sat down to chat with the bald man, Ah Sheng, while Park Ji-yeon and Park Hyo-min approached the gang members, playfully snatching the weapons from their hands. Since they were the younger sisters of their boss’s boss, the gangsters could only accept their fate with helpless, resigned expressions.
"It wasn't me provoking him; he provoked me. He was too narrow-minded. Later on, I tricked him a few times..." Yan Qing’s voice grew increasingly uncertain. Only now did he truly grasp the formidable nature of Feng Zhen.
Suddenly, the world went quiet. The booming music ceased, and the heated dancing stopped. Everyone’s eyes turned in unison toward the two figures in the center of the arena.
"Yes!" Seeing Zhu Tianfei nod, the martial artist responsible for guarding Ruan Jincheng removed the steel nails embedded in his body. These nails, infused with internal energy, were driven into vital acupuncture points to seal the powers of supernaturals.
Seeing the expressions on their faces, Yan Qing could roughly guess what was happening, and he grew quite displeased. Meanwhile, two miles away at the Heavenly God Sect:
Seeing that he could not overcome Chen Erdan, Xu Banshan leaped into the air. Then, in an instant, he vanished from sight, enveloped by countless rays of sword light—so many, in fact, that one could no longer see the man himself. Xu Banshan had achieved the unity of man and sword; he was the sword, and the sword was him. He was no longer a sword fanatic; he had become a sword-man.
After bowing three times, Chu Ling’er pulled out a dagger, sliced off a lock of her own hair, and placed it into Chu Tianya’s hand. "My body, hair, and skin were given to me by my parents!" she declared. "As of now, we are even!" With that, she pushed Chu Tianya out of the Feng residence and slammed the heavy gate shut.
Just as Wang Yan’s body paused, he saw Abe San’s arms suddenly stretch to several times their length. His hands shot out before Wang Yan, reaching toward him from both the left and the right.
At that moment, one of the six Undying Heavenly Gods suddenly turned his blade against the Celestial race. His longsword instantly pierced the chest of a Celestial Undying Heavenly God, and a heavy broadsword followed, hacking off the ten wings on his back.
For the time being, Liu Haiyu did not launch a counterattack. It was not that he lacked the ability; he was confident he could completely suppress his opponent in the art of formations. He wanted to probe his opponent’s trump cards before delivering a decisive, final blow.
Just then, a man emerged from behind a tree, sporting silver-white hair and a long, white tail trailing behind him.
The white-bearded elder, seeing no other way, heaved a sigh and began to chant the beast-taming incantation. The others, who appeared to have lower cultivation levels, followed suit and began to chant along.
Upon arriving here, Zhang Tian sensed that the magic power was much thinner than in the Sun-Ring Grasslands, and the spiritual energy was equally scarce. It was no wonder that most people were unwilling to come to this place.
Jiang Yi spent the entire night setting up the "Thousand-Leaf Array." Thousands of jade shards were buried deep underground; even if one were to dig a foundation, it would not affect the stability of the shards, unless an earthquake of magnitude eight or higher occurred. Although Jinghai was located on a seismic belt, a major earthquake had not occurred there for over a century.
Panic seized everyone, especially at the sight of the giant beasts in the sky. They had never seen such creatures before, and the sight left them deeply shaken. They had yet to realize that those giant beasts were the legendary warriors of antiquity.
