Chapter 30: The Divine Statue

He was as precise as a machine; every rocket he fired struck its target perfectly. His hands shifted positions without pause. Each time a rocket launcher emptied, he discarded it at an unbelievable speed, and a new one appeared in his hands out of thin air, allowing him to continue firing.

Jiutian Yishao’s words left Anyan silent. He had no power to resist Jiutian Yishao at all. Retracting his strength, he looked at Zhang Tao. “You will regret letting me go today.”

After saying this, Anyan transformed into black smoke and vanished, but Zhang Tao’s expression remained calm.

The enormous metallic monsters had crushed everything beneath their feet into fragments and fused the remains completely with the earth. Those shattered pieces were the only traces proving that the place had still been a city just fifteen minutes earlier.

Compared with the unknown price of killing Wang Badan, Da Wuhui felt that preserving his useful life and saving Qiqi was more important.

“If we look at it that way, this membrane of his should pose no threat to us.” The Young Master gazed at the invisible defensive barrier before him and gently stepped forward.

For one thing, it could help control those involved in illegal gambling on stones. For another, it would allow enthusiasts to compare their methods, observe one another, and learn from the experience of others as they cut open their stones. In any case, the advantage of such a gathering was that everyone could discuss matters together and purchase stones jointly, making everything more convenient.

After once again avoiding a rain of paper as sharp as blades, Chu Yiyun calmly analyzed his opponent’s weaknesses.

“I am Bai Qiu’s friend. If word gets out about your treatment of guests, I’m afraid it won’t be good for the Bai family, will it?” Zhang Tao’s expression darkened slightly. He had not expected the Bai family to be so well prepared.

A deed of servitude? What was that supposed to be? How could she not know about it? Weiyang’s eyes widened in terror. When she saw the bright red fingerprint stamped upon it, her face went deathly pale. Good heavens, what kind of place was Huamanlou? She could not remember when she had ever signed such a deed.

“I don’t care who you are. If you don’t get lost, I’ll beat you up! Don’t think you’re so formidable. At least for now, you’re no match for me, because you could be dead by the next second.”

Zhang Fan was speaking with genuine killing intent. He was not joking.

That was not martial arts meant merely to strengthen the body in the present age, but deadly combat techniques intended for actual battle.

Lin Ruohan and the others rushed toward Tang Xie at the first opportunity. None of them shed a tear, as though they had foreseen this day long ago.

When Wei Menglong saw the price positioning, a satisfied smile appeared on his face, and he decisively issued the order.

Just as Lin Yi was wondering about it, the car window rolled down, revealing Mu Jingyao’s delicate, rosy face. A pair of orange-red sunglasses rested on the bridge of her nose, and she was gazing at Lin Yi with great interest.

He had never dealt us a truly ruthless blow, and every word he spoke revealed his helplessness toward life. From that moment on, I knew he was someone who could be shaped into something worthwhile.

“What?” I looked at Xiao Ze in astonishment, my eyes filled with disbelief. Xiao Ze, however, had no intention of explaining in detail. Instead, he pointed ahead and told me to keep watching the show.

Having witnessed Zhao Yan’s mischievous cleverness and her talent, Wu Chengsi did not want such a gifted person to be wasted. He also hoped that Zhao Yan would handle the matter entirely, because only then would the great victory at Duzhong Pass truly belong to her.

Yang Xiu wholeheartedly agreed with Yan Qing. Yang Bo neither fawned upon the powerful nor accepted bribes. To have risen this far in the Great Ming Dynasty through his own abilities was proof enough of his strength.

“Hey, country bumpkin, Zhuge Yunfei has already said that about you. Don’t tell me you aren’t bothered at all?”

I had not expected Gongsun Wuji to deliberately sow discord between Zhuge Feiyun and me.

With that much effort, he might as well have said those words and won a wave of goodwill from them and Qin Wentian.

When Wu Bingbing was introducing Gu Ruxi’s identity in this manner, Gu Ruxi interrupted her. She seemed unwilling to learn too much about such matters, nor did she want to reveal her identity at a time like this.

But was it really appropriate for me to sing this song? The other party was only a six-year-old child. Would I affect the child’s physical and mental well-being? Shouldn’t I be singing children’s songs instead? How had I ended up singing those kinds of songs?

There was actually no need for this, since the damage would far outweigh the benefits. Yet Bai Yuling did not stop him in the slightest; instead, he contributed half of his own strength as well.

Xu Nuo, Mei Qingxue, Liu Xinyue, and Long Xianyu were naturally riding in Xu Nuo’s carriage, along with Wang Xi, who insisted on staying with Xu Nuo.

The Blazing Flame Eagle found it somewhat strange. He had observed the situation as well, but the Alliance Leader clearly treated everyone equally, showing special regard only to the two senior figures, the Deputy Alliance Leader, and a handful of others.

Han Xian, president of the Proud World Chamber of Commerce, also roared, “Fellow Daoists, Han Xian has arrived as well!”

With that, he swung the great saber in his hand and slashed toward Ye Wuchen.

“You’ll know once you put it on!” Zheng Shijia said as he took out his phone, opened an app, and started a virtual-reality video. He placed the phone inside the helmet, then helped Su Yin put it on like a blindfold, securing it in front of her eyes with two straps.

He had first heard Lu Chenyao asking him for directions, so he knew she was lost as well. He could not be bothered to ask whether she knew the way.

The next moment, a violent explosion rang out. After the smoke cleared, everyone saw that the two guards had been blasted apart, each missing an arm or a leg.

Shen Yang’s training could improve the Fulham players’ condition. Better condition would naturally lead to better team performances and improved results. As head coach, his direct responsibility was to lead the team to good results.

“How about this?” Ye Mu leaned close to Great-Grandmother Zeng’s ear and whispered to her.

Miusis had made a profit without investing anything, and he had no fear that the nobles would change their minds. After seeking refuge in his territory, the most they could hope for was to live as wealthy landowners.

“Yueyue!!”

The next second, he charged into the villa like a madman. Sharp shards pierced the soles of his feet, yet he felt no pain whatsoever.

Li Anna had figured it out as well. Warriors of the underground world were worth little. A warrior who could create value for a tribe or a city was a good warrior; one willing to go to war and offer up his life was the best kind of warrior.

Only then did Ye Wei realize that the flesh transmitted through his hand felt so incredibly real because it truly was real.

The pain in his chest came in waves, as though his heart were being twisted by a knife. No one knew how long it lasted before the agony finally eased a little. The moonlight flowed like water. Had anyone been there, they would have seen how frighteningly pale Nalan Heng’s face had become. Sweat had soaked the hair at his temples, leaving him looking rather disheveled.
