26 No Way Out

The group exchanged glances, growing increasingly satisfied with Xie Wuji’s plan, their trust and support for him solidifying in their hearts. Xie Wuji, Liu Ji, Xu Da, and Chang Yuchun felt an immediate kinship, their conversation deepening as they talked through the night by candlelight, discussing the grand tides of the world. Though they had not slept, there was no trace of fatigue on their faces; instead, they appeared spirited and energized, as if there was still much left to be said.

"What good would it do me if you died? But... like Kashira, you must sign a blood pact with me!" Wushuang’s voice was very low.

Lei San truly could not stand it anymore; he wanted to live for his family for once, so he tried hard to find work, but now, he couldn't find a single job, and he was pacing in anxiety.

Mo Fan and Cheng Feng had been waiting at the palace entrance for some time. When they saw the others enter, they immediately greeted them with smiles and cupped hands.

Wang Erni was prepared to fight Dai Changyou to the bitter end, but unexpectedly, Liang Fei suddenly changed his mind and wanted Wang Erni to leave. How could that be? Wouldn't that look like they were afraid of Dai Changyou? If so, how would they ever get compensation?

"Chairman Qin, you aren't abroad? Why did you suddenly think to call me?" Su Yanran’s voice came from the other end of the line, though Qin Fan could detect a hint of dissatisfaction and reproach in her tone.

"I know you are all people of loyalty and honor, but the information we have now is simply that they haven't been found. That includes the hundred or so who were killed or wounded; there is no trace of them. What does this mean? It means they might still be alive, do you understand?" Long Ya, with a clatter of his teeth, sat back down.

"Don't be anxious, Wu Xiong. These past few days haven't been in vain. As long as you can provide us with valuable clues, the reward will be doubled," Qin An said with a smile.

To say nothing of the rest, the Evil Palace members who had left the Linhai Mountain Range had discovered several places like the Soul-Cleansing Tower.

Although it was called a forced entry, the servants in the Taiyi Mansion were all relatives and friends of the Dark Hunt Group members. Even though they had been promoted to extraordinary status, their strength was too low. On one hand, the attendants couldn't detect Brahma and his two companions, and on the other, even if they had, they wouldn't have been able to stop them.

Sitting at the main table, Ouyang Yu and Ouyang Zongpu looked at each other, exchanging worried glances. Could something have gone wrong? The critical moment for the assassination was approaching; they must not have any complications now, or all their previous efforts would be in vain.

The Gate of Finality did not quite understand the emotions of the Spirit of Existence, but after simulating the situation, it determined that "transforming" Nanzi into Yayoi would draw most of Baling’s hostility! That was why it had done so.

"Why is it that while His Majesty the God Emperor is away on official business, that estate manager named Minghui is allowed to stay in the Shanhai Villa?" Hella was a straightforward person, so she asked what she did not understand.

The uncle pulled his head out and shook his fur, shedding the sand and dirt from his mane.

Enterprises like this are all the same; everyone’s actual abilities are often similar, and they all rely on connections to get in.

Master Kumu had not expected that her internal energy would have grown so much after fifteen years; the current contest of strength was proving quite taxing.

Qin Xuan felt a massive force descend upon him instantly. He raised his hand to strike out a palm print, and simultaneously, the phantom of a Kui ox surged forth, slamming fiercely into Bai Sheng’s body. However, Bai Sheng was protected by a silver-white glow, and he remained unmoved by the attacks, not shifting his body even an inch.

Kicking open the door of the inn, an old man in hemp robes and a youth in silk walked in. The two sat down, and the silk-clad youth shouted loudly.

Ghost servants possess no cultivation, but they have immense strength and terrifying physical power. They certainly could not defeat Hu Dunhou and the other five at the ninth level of Qi Refining, but their ability to withstand a beating was incredibly high.

Xia Qiqi knew that this assassin still did not fully believe she was the princess, so she spoke with such cold sarcasm on purpose.

Who didn't know that this wealthy merchant Qian was one of the top tycoons in the capital, second only to the Gu Mansion? If she could coax him into a good mood, wouldn't the silver in Auntie Jin's pocket flow in like water?

In fact, he had obtained the treasure of a Golden Core powerhouse; his storage ring contained many high-grade magical artifacts, and even treasures that exceeded the grade of mere artifacts.

When he returned to the camp, his teammates did not recognize Zhou Hao at first. The guard in charge of the camp stopped him, looking at him with wary eyes and telling him to stay where he was.

So I invited Shu Xin to have lunch together today, and this time, she didn't hesitate to agree.

"Your Highness?" A knock came from the outside; it was Consort Fang’s voice. Why was she here? Yang Ning was not in the room at the moment, and she had no way to deal with this.

He was an imposing old man, his eyes containing a divine light, giving him the grand, towering presence of a mountain.

Although it was difficult to kindle the fire, the moment Long Linyue thought of how this fire was for Fuli, she was immediately filled with motivation.

Nanny Deng, who remained outside, could only sigh at the fragments of the teacup on the floor and stooped to clean them up. This situation had played out more than once. After clearing the shards and walking out of Li Luoxia’s room, she happened to run into the guard Li Zheng.

"It is of no consequence. I imagine you have many things to do; the five Sky-Fire Dragon Pythons have ruined nearly half of Dongji City." The fire poison of the five dragons was extremely potent, and Yan Chunqiu surely had much to deal with.

The Azure Dragon, White Tiger, and Vermilion Bird guardians also tensed their bodies, gripping their weapons tightly. The Four Wind-and-Cloud Hands also wore cold expressions, becoming fully vigilant.

Shangguan Yun did not wait for the old man; he feinted and pursued the Red Blood Sword. Just as the tip of the sword struck the ground, his fingers gripped the hilt, and with a sweep, he flung the snow and mud from the ground toward Xue Tianmu, following up with a sword thrust straight at Xue Tianmu’s throat.

The car factory was in the suburbs. Hearing that something had gone wrong, Cheng Yan was anxious, but far-away water cannot quench a nearby fire. Holding onto a sliver of hope, he called Deng Lin, never expecting that Lu Sheng would also rush over. Seeing his brother whom he hadn't seen for a long time, his heart was filled with a thousand emotions.

Of course, one only needed to slide the spell diagram onto the panel to upload its contents.

After greeting the man, Yin Yi walked to the virtual laboratory bench and entered his information card ID to lift the locked culture dish.

The source was the middle-aged man sitting in the main seat. His face was gloomy, his eyes bloodshot, and between his brows, he bore a resemblance to Long Huochi.

Shangguan Yun sidestepped the two palms, but unexpectedly, Xiao Zan also struck from behind. Hearing the wind behind him, he stepped to the side, dodged that strike as well, and used the Shura Phantom Hands to grab at Xiao Jian’s left arm.

The poison of the "Blue Heaven and Yellow Springs" was truly beyond their comprehension; no matter what method they used, they could not contain it.
