Chapter 68: Trouble for Zheng Xiaozhen

Zheng Xiaozhen paused for a moment, then took the photograph from Jiang Cha's hands and examined it closely.
"I somehow feel this photo is very familiar, but I just can't remember."
Jiang Cha felt somewhat disappointed, though this could hardly be blamed on Zheng Xiaozhen.
When she was first abducted and brought to this village, she fell violently ill.
After waking up, she had forgotten many things from her past, remembering only that she had been trafficked.
As so many years had passed...

Moreover, Kong Gu seemed not to have recognized him at all. Upon returning to the subterranean dungeon later, he would merely need to blast open the cell and repeat the process—it would be as effortless as drinking water.

Right beside Ancestor Zaohua, vast swathes of space were directly torn apart, producing a series of translucent, spider-web-like cracks. Within these fissures, clusters of white flames faintly burst and surged forth—these were the flames ignited by the annihilation of spatial forces.

This made Xu Yang's journey to find a car exceptionally difficult; in just this short distance, Xu Yang had to hoist his shoulder bag a dozen times.

Watching the explosions echoing from behind, Yang Su did not dare to look back as he drove the three of them forward, running with all their might.

Haihai bit her lip and shook her head. Seated on a stool, beads of fine sweat broke out on her forehead, and her scalded hand trembled incessantly. Yet, she stubbornly bit back any cry of pain and refused to go to the hospital. Let it hurt like this—at least it could temporarily mask the ache within her heart.

However, after attempting to persuade him for a moment and seeing that Qin Ming had made up his mind and completely disregarded his words, Wang Ping finally abandoned the notion of further dissuasion. With a bitter, helpless sigh, he also hurried toward the depths of Falling Star Mountain.

The moment he spoke, the spirits of the three judges were instantly invigorated. They exchanged glances, each seeing astonishment in the other's eyes.

Furthermore, Xu Yang figured that if they did not seize this opportunity to make the announcement, finding another chance later on would likely be exceedingly difficult.

"This is the silver hairpin used to control Lu Xiao. To my knowledge, apart from the techniques of the Five Elements, there is indeed a mind-illusion art capable of controlling and bewitching others to serve one's own ends." Yan Rong then handed the silver hairpin, which had fallen from the top of Lu Xiao's head, into the hands of Prince Ning.

Naturally, this was also related to its passionate, stirring, and even exhilarating lyrics and melody—a song ideally suited for listening to during lows and adversities. The most frequent comment was, "It gave me strength."

Sensing the utter hopelessness of the situation, Zheng Ming could not help but shake his head slightly. Then, gently raising a hand to pat the other's right shoulder, he vanished on the spot.

"Is he really completely without any problems? So confident, so high-profile." Xiong Xiaoge was thoroughly bewildered.

This was virtually the worst-case scenario they could have anticipated. They had indeed slain the vanguard and routed the vanguard army, but they had also learned several critical truths.

However, the mosquito demon came to its senses far too late, for by this time, of the original ten-thousand-strong mosquito demon army, a mere thousand or so remained.

Intricate patterns were engraved upon the bead, and the layer of crimson mist enveloping and shrouding the six of them emanated directly from it.

Had it not been for the necessity of consuming food to sustain their physical strength, they likely wouldn't have wanted to touch a single bite of hard rations right now.

"Eat a little less, just enough to tide you over. Once we start wandering around later, there will be plenty of things you actually like to eat," Xiao Jinxun said to Wang Yumo.

"No, it's time for me to let go as well. As for my blessings, I'll just send them to her later," Chen Yichen said with a wry smile.

Furthermore, as his opponent, Nance's ability was the power to perceive a person's short-term thoughts. In other words, every move Helen had made just now had actually been seen through by him long ago; he had simply feigned ignorance. When it came to acting, Helen was probably still slightly inferior.

Having said that, Huo Jun abandoned further communication with him, ran off to the side, and sat holding his long spear, closing his eyes to rest and gather his strength.

Lin Feng learned the recipe for the Transformation into Cheetah Potion. Although it was merely a shapeshifting skill, the raw materials for brewing the potion were still primarily plant-based. The plants required this time were far more complex than those needed for the Blue Spirit Liquid, requiring a total of two distinct types of flora.
