Chapter 98: Nothing More Than That

To be honest, Qin Yue never anticipated this skirmish.

He had not underestimated Wang Hong’s dedication to the Ice Abyss people; the fervent search for the Descended Demon Child by those from the Celestial Realm made that clear.

Moreover, the seven words “Ice Abyss criminals are unforgivable” were an unalterable ancestral decree of the Zhaoyang Sect.

This also indirectly confirmed that in the eyes of the “informed” in the Celestial Realm, the “innate anomaly, demon child descended” was most likely connected to the Ice Abyss people or others suppressed by the Zhaoyang Sect.

On another note, Zhang Haotian realized that Zhang Haotian himself had a unique opportunity. Once Sun Wukong mastered Zhang Haotian’s signature spells, the deeper his cultivation, the greater the obstacles he might face in his future path.

After speaking, he commanded the “Undead Warriors” to advance. They had originally followed “Debang,” but “Debang” instead targeted an attack-defense tower. Even under enemy fire, he paid no heed, which was utterly astonishing.

At that moment, just like Wang Boyi, they failed to detect any trace of Bai Kun.

It was as if night had fallen; almost everyone’s vision plunged into utter darkness, and an overwhelming silence filled their ears, as if they alone stood amidst boundless gloom.

Feng Ling’er was stunned, her face flushed with excitement, yet her sharp eyes caught sight of the object in Qin Zheng’s hand.

“You... you’re forcing me, aren’t you? We’re not at that stage yet,” Xu Yourong said, her brows deeply furrowed.

He grew curious about the origins of the custom of street crystal stone trading. He asked Lin Xiyu, but she, too, was uncertain.

Mu Rong, knowing he had finally taken this step, was overjoyed and busied herself with the related arrangements. However, just as Elder Qin had said, without an elder at home, these matters became somewhat chaotic. Mu Rong feared Su Xiaoyan might have second thoughts amid the confusion, causing considerable trouble.

Although the Batian Gang within the Lingzhu world was merely the lowest-tier headquarters, it was their origin, and Earth remained the homeland of all, holding special significance for everyone.

Lin Xiyu had been cradled by the wind element since birth; a wave of her hand could sweep down fallen leaves, and a mere lift of her brow could clear the dust from the ground.

Generally, as a monster, Qiao Xi’s presence was subtle—indeed, all monsters living among humans tended not to reveal themselves too prominently.

He stopped, eyes calmly sweeping across the surrounding landscape, each glance filled with profound attachment. Then he knelt, cupped the thin snow on the ground in his hands, and smiled as he scattered it into the air.

“No matter the situation, we must stop her from going to Dongzhou! This time, no matter how wild or unruly she gets, I will never relent!” Qu Ershun had no other choice but to take a hard stance.

Contini nodded: if it weren’t for the big win this time, pulling off such a betrayal against his father wouldn’t have been so smooth.

Jiang Liuchen frowned slightly and had to return to her seat, but her eyes never left Xu Cong.

In this way, Li Yichen blended into the vastness of the Divine Array Temple, unnoticed by anyone, which suited him perfectly.

Hua Kaiyuan Xiu turned her head to look around as Qiao Xi spoke, and she couldn’t help but smile.

In late May 1926, Adriana gave birth to a son for Contini, naming him Orlando. After the graduation ceremony in June, Contini took Ida to Switzerland. Since Ida had also graduated, she was scheduled to study nursing at the medical college the following academic year, as previously arranged.

However, as Fang Yuxuan activated the power of the deep-sea cold pearl within him, the barrier instantly re-solidified, and the surrounding ice grew even more biting. Many, having exhausted much energy earlier, began to tremble slightly in the intense cold.
