Chapter 145: The Little Schemes of Two Children (Part One)

Yun Shuang parted her lips slightly and said, "Jiang Xiao."

Jiang Xiao was slightly taken aback.

The woman before him wore a serious expression, her tone solemn and grave.

She had called him by his name just like that.

In his memory, she had always addressed him as "Commander Jiang." It seemed she had never once spoken his name so directly.

He remained silent for a moment before asking, "What is it?"

"I have something very important I would like to tell you."

Yun Shuang hesitated for a moment, then, as if she had made up her mind, she continued.

Just now, after seeing the two elders, the person beside him had insisted that he come over to greet them.

Ye Qing stroked his gleaming bald head, lost in thought. "Hmm, you know, my old monk once mentioned some bizarre things, too. It is said that a certain Buddha was trapped in the sixth realm of martial arts for a very long time."

"Actually, doing this is beneficial for all of us," Tu Bai replied with a reassuring smile, and then continued.

Li Jin led Chen Jue into the shop, leaving Chu Hu outside to watch the carriage. The shopkeeper was a lean, elderly man in his fifties, sporting a thin, handlebar mustache even longer than that of the head steward, Gui Quan; it looked just like the antennae of a lobster.

At this moment, Holden finally saw the pale blue halo beneath Peters' body clearly. Though it was somewhat obscured by the brilliant, pervasive light, Holden was still one hundred percent certain that it was the same symbol he had seen on the floor of Viscount Philo's home—the very same symbol he had seen when he first awoke.

The snake-like creature slid to the tips of Shi Rui’s fingers and leaped onto the palm of Pi Yucheng’s hand. Pi Yucheng endured for a long time before she could bring herself to shake it off, for she felt as though the snake knew something.

With a leap, moving like a shadow, he soared a full ten feet into the air to dodge the debris kicked up by the heavy sword. Then, performing a backflip, he delivered a horizontal kick to the giant’s forehead, knocking him unconscious instantly.

Hearing Luo Chen’s words, Su Chen couldn't help but smile. If a region had a Qilin Child, that child would serve for twenty years before the next one appeared. This guy claiming to be from the generation before him was clearly trying to take advantage of him.

"Is that all you've got?" Li Guangxu sneered. He remained calm, however; having repelled Hu Xiong, he had no desire to linger. Flapping his wings, he prepared to take flight and depart.

In its berserk state, the Poison-Sting Wolf King’s strength had at least tripled. Even without the boost, the wolf king’s speed was already beyond what Xiao Tie and his companions could detect, let alone at three times the pace.

A dull thud followed, instantly snapping the opponent’s head upward. At the same time, the creature's heavy frame shuddered violently, and the red glow in its eyes flickered intermittently.

However, the sword spirit followed the dictates of her heart; to avoid exposing Lu Tianyu’s secret, she did not cut him.

Yun Tianyang’s gaze turned icy. The remaining six flying daggers left his hand, aimed directly at his opponent's vital points.

"Regardless of whether you did it intentionally or by accident, Miss Zhu, you indirectly aided Gong Lian’s actions. That is an indisputable fact." Lu Yunting stared intently at Zhu Nishang.

"In that case, old man, I’ll play along with you, you young man, and see who is the crazier one!" A wild, frantic smile appeared on Jia Yan’s scarred face, causing the researcher on his shoulder, already shaken to the core by the turbulence, to roll his eyes and pass out completely.

It was a flash of sword light—hazy, yet terrifyingly powerful. It surged forward, striking down the mighty beings that filled the sky.

That’s right, Xu Yang didn’t use any special privileges this time; he went through the legal process. They said he had always been reckless, so he would show them what it looked like to play by the rules for once. No lawyer would ever claim to have gotten the better of Edward.

The sound of metal clashing rang out. The white sword that Shangguan Lingyun held in defense was bent by the force of Qiang Chen’s spear, which then struck him squarely in the chest.

"Haha, Chu, you’re finished! And you will die a miserable death. Those who anger Brother Di Jie never meet a good end!" Seeing Di Jie unleash his power, Zhu Jiu She burst into wild laughter.
