Volume 1, Chapter 135: A War of Words Against the Scholars, the Top Scholar is on a Rampage!
Chen Tianxiu made a phone call to Murong Xue. After stating his location, he hung up.
Today, the Chaos Pearl space was already as large as two or three football fields. What remained unchanged were the stone tablets in the center and a solitary violet.
"It's fine, everything is still under my control, our—" The wise man wanted to comfort the hardcore captain once more, but the icy notification sound from the Purgatory Space resounded sharply in his mind, cutting him off.
Yet that disciple remained trapped as if in a demonic trance, deeply immersed in an illusionary world of pink romance beyond all extrication, stripping off his clothes and passionately kissing the empty air.
"No one is confessing... is that it?" Xue Zhihua rolled up his sleeves, preparing to pin Xue Zhiguo and the other three to the ground and give them a thorough thrashing.
Seeing the main fleet arrive, he launched an attack on those dozen or so Joseon warships without a second thought. The latter were completely unprepared, acting just like their commander, Park Eun-jung, who adopted a detached attitude towards everything—as long as port order remained stable and the Ming dynasty warships made no unusual moves, they couldn't care less.
However, the changes within the two of them differed slightly. Yang Cheng deepened the white portion of the Yin-Yang Taiji diagram, whereas Yu Jia, conversely, deepened the black portion. Although the Yin-Yang Taiji diagrams within their dantian energy seas remained mere phantom projections and relatively illusory, they slowly and gradually deepened as time passed.
Pan Shiqian recalled the time he had been severely beaten by him at the Qingyi River. Recognizing that his skills were inferior, he had no choice but to swallow his pride. He swallowed hard, glared fiercely at the two of them, and turned away swaying unsteadily while holding his wine glass.
The reason they eventually retreated was that the capital region had been plundered to the point where no further supplies could be obtained, coupled with the arrival of reinforcements from various regions whom they simply could not outlast.
Zhao Li's oversized tongue was still dragging along the entire "giant meaty strip" of his torso. Judging by Zhao Li's current surging, high-density muscle mass, his weight was measured in tons. For this "individual flight jetpack" to achieve a slow descent rather than a direct crash was already impressive enough.
"Are you fully awake? How are you feeling?" Murong Xue asked immediately upon seeing him open his eyes.
"Of course there is a difference in buying and selling prices; it's impossible for me not to make a profit," the tauren demon said.
They were well aware of the strength of their elder. Beneath the power of those few heavenly eyes, unless he encountered an expert comparable to a Nine-Star Dou Shen realm, it would truly be difficult for anyone to match him.
Looking at these items that could be considered "private," Harry opened his mouth, wanting to ask, yet feeling it was somewhat difficult to voice. Putting the matter of time travel aside, whom Professor Felton left these to and what did it have to do with him anyway? What right did he have to boldly and confidently inquire about everything?
Listening to the words of those students, a faint smile appeared on Zhuang Yi's face. These students inevitably reminded him of his own high school days.
He could neither abandon the mission nor allow his mind to suffer a complete breakdown. While his sanity still held and his brain remained somewhat lucid, he had to find a way to interrupt this endlessly protracted confinement.
Levis glanced at his watch: three-thirty. The mission was accomplished; he could now return and wait for the police to come knocking. By this time, the FBI in Houston should have already tracked his movements and deduced from his driving route that he intended to cross the border into Mexico. Barring any accidents, the county sheriff would be coming to arrest him by tomorrow night.
I have never laid eyes on the Azure Dragon, but I will help vindicate its armor, telling the world that this is not a cursed suit of armor, but a supreme divine artifact—a priceless treasure.
He went to the basement? Zong Ming was extremely surprised. According to what the servants had just said, shouldn't Tang Yi be locked up down there? What was Johnny doing there?
As for the Tianshan Cold Ice, this item could basically be found on every continent, obtainable atop some of the higher snow-capped mountains.
When Zeng Hua and his party caught sight of the Chenggao Pass, everyone knew they were about to enter the territory of Luoyang. Thinking of returning to the former capital of Luoyang, a wave of emotion stirred within them. Over half a year of traveling had greatly broadened their horizons, while also leaving them somewhat exhausted. Once they returned to Luoyang, Chang'an would not be far away either.
After looking around in all directions, he consulted in detail with the craftsmen and foremen. Once the situation was clarified, Zeng Hua and the others felt quite satisfied. At that moment, Zeng Hua noticed a crowd gathered in the distance. Upon inquiring with the farm manager, he learned that nearby villagers were hauling coal from the distant Yuanshan Mountains. After a moment of thought, Zeng Hua walked over.
Furthermore, once Wu Zhi moved, core members of the faction such as Yunge, Xiao Rang, and Jiang Jing would inevitably have to follow Wu Zhi and move to Qingzhou as well.
"Because I..." Yan Lin felt that everything was naturally his own fault. Yet now, upon being evaluated in such a manner by Rong Qian, he conversely found himself at a loss for words.
The sprawling garden lay in utter ruin; the once-jade steps, golden tiles, and decorative ornaments had long since been hammered away and stripped bare.
"What? What kind of medical examination cost you so much money?" Liu Yifei widened his eyes in astonishment.
Following a group discussion, it was finally decided to enter Guanzhong via the Luogu Pass. From Shenling to the Great Wall garrison, and all the way down to Zhenggu County dozens of li north of the valley mouth, there were local powerful clans ready to receive them. Moreover, emerging from this route led straight to Huaishi County in Shiping Commandery—neither too close nor too far from Chang'an, striking the ideal distance in Zeng Hua's mind.
