Volume 1, Chapter 56: Lin Zhiwan, Let's Live Well Together From Now On!
Lin Zhiwan opened her eyes, and the first thing she saw was the white ceiling.
She recalled the scene just before she lost consciousness and deeply regretted being so impulsive.
She had nearly risked her own life for the sake of a man.
She must have gone mad to do such a thing!
The ward door was pushed open, and Fu Yanzhou walked in wearing protective gear.
However, before the black swallow-finch could fully spread its wings and take flight, Liu Shisan suddenly leaned backward. A gray shadow emerged abruptly from the bird's chest, directly pouncing onto the black swallow-finch. Spinning together in mid-air, the black and gray masses of shadow became completely intertwined.
Bringing the Mystery Devourer wasn't meant as a specific counter; with only nine classes in total, the opponent's probability of possessing a mystery was simply too high. Besides, even if they hadn't brought a mystery-focused class specifically, the chance of acquiring a mystery was still quite significant.
The burly Canadian dragon let out a loud laugh, then suddenly darted forward like a leopard, clenching his fist as he launched an attack against the Sword Immortal Yilin.
At this moment, Lin Chen felt the token left behind by the Baiyunxuan sisters react. He took it out and observed it closely; sure enough, there was a clear route marked on it, though the distance was extremely far.
Hearing this, the classmates couldn't help but grow anxious. They already knew about Peng Yili's premarital pregnancy and understood the situation, but the parents and relatives on both sides still held old-fashioned traditional views. If this burly man blurted it out, the reputations of both families would likely be ruined.
The remaining hundred or so subordinates also released their magic tools at that moment, following closely behind the red-bearded, green-eyed man to strike at Huang Xuanling.
It was not that they could not attack, but rather that they chose not to. Once a controller existed, the faceless ones functioned like rusted machinery, finally gaining the ability to attack the card holder.
Arthur cursed, but before he could squeeze out another syllable, a rustling sound echoed from beneath the ice sheet.
"Well then, Erxi shall take his leave." Hearing this, Erxi straightened his posture again. After speaking, he led his soldiers toward the west gate. With the military situation being urgent at the moment, it was hardly the time for chit-chat or reminiscing.
"This... kind sir, I am on my way to Henei Commandery to enlist in the army. Passing through your esteemed territory, my dry rations have run out, so I have come to beg for a bite of food and a drink of water." Seeing the newcomer, Xiao Feng bowed formally and spoke with utmost courtesy.
Sure enough, no sooner had that disciple finished speaking than Lin毅 felt his feet suddenly rise, followed closely by a sensation of entering some mysterious cavern. Traveling at high speed alongside a thousand other disciples, the surrounding scenery bizarrely raced backward at such a dizzying pace that it was nearly impossible to see clearly.
Listening to the other's hysterical roar, Jiang Lan quickly wiped away her drool and went over to help move the "corpse" on the ground, though her eyes kept darting back and forth.
"A Martial Saint? That's rather unlikely. The assassin I hired earlier has already clashed with the target; the opponent is merely at the upper-tier warrior level. As for spatial magic scrolls—items worth a thousand pieces of gold—that remains unclear."
A flash of cold light crossed Ye Feng's eyes, his expression entirely fearless. He curled his dragon-scale arm into a fist and met the incoming attack with a whistling force that tore through the air.
Seeing Lin Yi return, the disciples were clearly somewhat surprised, but even more of them gazed at him with eyes full of hopeful expectation.
A fierce blade slammed into Huang Qiang's protective shield. Even though Huang Qiang was a defensive master possessing mid-stage Tier 4 power, his shield instantly became covered in fine cracks.
"Are we here? Have we arrived in the Divine Realm?" Qatar asked happily, turning his head to look around the lush green grassland.
Hearing this voice, Yin-Yang Zhengze was momentarily stunned. He hurriedly withdrew his sword Qi and peered into the bushes, only to see Chantas and the other two lying on the ground in pain.
When Uchiha Ban and the others arrived at the spot where Philip had fought earlier, Philip was already lying on the ground, on the verge of death. He had been shown mercy because Bluebell said that such a noble person deserved to have his life spared; therefore, he had only suffered severe injuries and was still breathing faintly.
