Chapter 109: You Are Destined for Fame!
Sun Na unexpectedly had her own car, which left Xu Ze somewhat surprised. After all, getting a license plate in the capital these days was no easy feat. But when Sun Na offered to drive him back to the university, Xu Ze did not refuse. Saving on subway fare was always a good thing.
As he settled into the passenger seat, he was greeted by the sweet fragrance that belonged to a young woman. Several adorable cartoon ornaments hung from the dashboard in front of him.
Seeing Xu Ze get in, Sun Na waved her delicate fist excitedly.
Jiang Yuan was unclear about how the previous master of the cauldron had come up with such a method, but it was evident that the sole purpose was to steal the elixir; it seemed that the master must have been quite clever, or else he would not have devised such a scheme.
The monk and Yang Guang exchanged a miserable glance, then stopped in the rain and looked toward the ruins. Though the servant was but a minor character, to die like this felt utterly pointless.
Lowering his head signified that, since he had entered, the more than thirty thousand sword cultivators under his command from the southeastern domain would now unconditionally follow Di Yunchen’s orders. This was something no one had expected.
When the figure stopped, a surge of wind whipped out in all directions, raising dust throughout the arena.
The descent of the gods, and Xu Xian’s flight, were fraught with dangers and terrors, leaving Xu Jiaorong unable to compose herself for even a moment; Xu Xian was the only relative she had left in this world and nothing could happen to him.
“You must be new here. This is the recruitment for the top five hundred battle groups. You’ll need to pass an assessment first,” the man said.
In truth, Yang Guang had not revealed the entire purpose behind creating the Purple Soul Death Guards, and Du Meiyue kept even more to herself, so in a way, they were even.
Suddenly, a blue spear appeared in Meng Qishan’s hand. Azure light blazed forth, gathering into a formidable aura and radiating a terrifying power that shook the heavens and earth.
The most outrageous thing was the complexity of their relationships. After scanning the spiritual origins of the nine, Ye Chu took a long moment to unravel the tangled web of causes and effects.
When everyone saw the bundle hanging from Da Ling’er’s neck, their grief vanished instantly. Only Nisha, Min Changtian, or Di Yunchen could send a message through Da Ling’er, and clearly Min Changtian would not write a whole bundle of letters to Nisha. So, it could only be Di Yunchen.
Had it not been for her slapping Jialin earlier, perhaps Lu Houliang would have used his old connections to plead for her. But with the earlier incident, no one present felt any sympathy for her.
Upon hearing that Li Tian was looking for an assistant, it had to be made the top priority. Tomorrow, everything would be the assistant’s responsibility, with nothing left for him. He would dutifully remain the driver and bodyguard—though, truthfully, he was just a driver; “bodyguard” was merely a title. With the boss’s skills, did he really need a bodyguard?
As they spoke, Tian Biao abruptly fell silent. As if possessed, he walked toward the siege tower, his expression wooden, eyes bloodshot, and set the tower alight with his torch.
Though Sasagawa Leiping was utterly unconcerned—in fact, he became even more fired up. Burning with passion to his limits, as the fog rolled in, Sasagawa Leiping was so spirited, he threw punches all the way past Kaga’s shining blade and then... disappeared.
Upon hearing this, the Kui Ox shuddered, staring dumbly at Wang Shuo, tears in its eyes, and nodded vigorously before turning to leave.
Moreover, the things they had investigated back then lacked any evidence; it was all Si Zhengting’s speculation. So whatever Yao Teng had actually done remained a mystery.
Illusive Firefly had no lethal power, but could induce hallucinations in people—though it did not always succeed, depending on the circumstances.
The elder, drenched in sweat, nodded profusely and dared not linger for even a moment, immediately running outside.
“These costs and things—if the young lady uses them well, your sister won’t find it a hardship to prepare them every day,” Biliu said, bringing in a basin of warm water, wetting a cloth as she smiled.
