Chapter Ninety-Four: Everyone’s Background Was Quite Complicated After All (Part One)

Yuan Yi could not help pressing further. “Are you certain there were none? It need not have been some grave conflict. Even the small frictions of daily life would do. Tell us about those.”

Dean Feng looked somewhat embarrassed. “There were plenty of those small frictions. After all, when people live and work together, how could there be no clashes? Everyone working in our Relief Home has had them. But in my view, they were only ordinary matters, nothing that would... nothing that would warrant murder!”

Yun Shuang asked, “Those who work in the Relief Home—”

One thing, however, was beyond doubt: this sudden strike by Mo Fei had, by chance and through a lucky ambush, destroyed the Giant of Light. By a stroke of fate, he had also shattered the alliance between the Ancient God Empire and Emperor Guangwu, effectively saving the lives of many members of the Alliance Nation who were present.

The ancient battlefield of the Immortal Realm differed from that of the mortal realm. There was more than one entrance, and each led to a different region. To travel from the demonic entrance to the human entrance would take at least several months.

Outside the palace, those divine beings were still trying to break the miraculous arts of the Ice and Fire Saint, when they suddenly felt an unimaginable and terrifying will erupt into the world. Their faces changed drastically, and they scattered in all directions.

His guardian spirit rune only seemed comparable to a true intermediate spirit rune. By itself, it should not have been able to withstand the attacks of a second-stage spirit realm expert in the Infant Soul Realm. But with the force of the rapidly spinning rebound, plus his comprehension of the twenty-seventh depth, even a beast soul on par with an Infant Soul Realm expert was no longer able to do anything to him.

He only knew what he had to do now: kill Kong Sen and the Evil Return, and seize the Nine Flames Heartfire beneath the Heavenly Flame Pit.

“Ha! Fellow Daoist Huang, you really do know how to joke. As for those bandits and brigands, do the armies of the various cities in the Immortal Realm simply sit idle and ignore them?” Yi Jianfeng could not help laughing when he heard this.

“Demon Lord Wutian, do not be smug. We came today precisely to send you to your end.” Upon hearing this, the mysterious peerless powerhouse from the Savage Forbidden Land, the Sinful Dragon, said.

Once the war began, the cultivator armies of the State of Great Chu and the State of Zhao kept arriving in endless streams from the various immortal and demonic sects, transported in to reinforce Black Demon Ridge. After a round of troop deployments, large numbers of reinforcements reached Black Demon Ridge at daybreak. The pressure on the defenders there immediately eased.

Moreover, the Thousand Sects Alliance was not limited to cargo transport alone. In Harbor City, it also had many places that required the help of a professional merchant team.

Besides, Jin Qiong himself was no weakling. The whale-shark clan was strong enough to rank among the top ten sea clans, even after excluding the dragon race from the count.

The security guards who were maintaining order at the scene stepped forward and restrained Nan Tiantian, but they did not dare use too much force, afraid she might suffer some further stress reaction.

“The hierarch appears rather young because of the cultivation art he practices,” Elder Liu explained from the side.

Zhang He was dumbfounded. He had worked in this industry for so many years and had always believed his eye for people was fairly good.

After worrying about her elder brother and Liu Zhen, Tang Shiqing returned home, only to be surprised to find that An Yun was there.

At the steps before the hall, a young monk with palms pressed together chanted the Buddha’s name, receiving guests and seeing them off. The pilgrims smiled as they chatted and entered together, yet even this rising bustle could not drown out the distant, ancient, and solemn tolling of the bell.

However, he secretly checked the teleportation token in his storage card and found that it would still need a little more time before it could be used.

Yet ever since the family’s founder took a shipload of elites and set out into the starry sky on an adventure from which he never returned, the clan had declined sharply. The powerful houses the old patriarch had once offended now seized the chance to kick them while they were down, joining forces to suppress them.

At once, a brilliant light flickered in and out across the surface of her tearful eyes.

Senior Zhao’s words jolted him awake; more than that, he had also set an example and personally given classmate Jiang a lesson.

Time seemed to have lost all meaning within this white space, and Su Chen’s sense of it had grown blurred.

Though he could fight as well, his identity made him more accustomed to staying in a safe place, waiting for those below him to deal with the enemy.
