He had noticed a hint of green beneath it before, but pretended not to see. With Cai’s light, delicate steps, she would likely trip over the tile in the darkness. With this in mind, Tang Yu deliberately led Cai toward the raised tile.

He had Shura conceal himself immediately; perhaps Shura would prove decisive in the end. Those whose cultivation was not at a bottleneck grew slowly. For those stuck at a bottleneck, the longer they came into contact, the more likely the bottleneck would loosen—this was just proximity, what if it were fully absorbed and refined?

Tang Tang and the others hadn’t realized that Qin Haonan was the boss himself, and were overjoyed. It seemed their earlier hopes might yet be realized.

If word of the miraculous Daoist spread in the country, it might stir up even more trouble, perhaps even draw attention away from America and ease their pressure.

Eight years ago, the brief confrontation with the clone was etched as freshly as if it had happened yesterday. During those years, Lin Que constantly improved himself, grew stronger, but even so, killing a clone alone still required immense effort.
