Chapter 102: The Truth Is Right Before Your Eyes
Chen Kedi’s words cut through the night like a flash of lightning.
Lin Yu’s mind filled with confusion at once. He stared at Chen Kedi with wide, unbelieving eyes, thinking that his father and this Dinghai Divine Spear of Great Xia were no more than old acquaintances—was there perhaps some profound, inhuman bond between them as well?
Chen Kedi saw Lin Yu’s reaction and could roughly guess what he was thinking.
He took a deep breath, but…
Su Yan’s eyes suddenly brightened, and the Dragon Abyss Sword hissed as it came free of its sheath, its ringing tone like the cry of a dragon.
Elsewhere, Garp was also being pressed by Luffy, and Sengoku, transformed into a colossal golden Buddha, was in grave danger under the onslaught of Whitebeard’s remnants and several men from the Straw Hat Pirates; as for the other fresh vice admirals raised by Sengoku and Garp, each of them bore fresh wounds.
On the battlefield fortunes shifted like weather: the city belonged to one nation today, and by tomorrow it might already have a new lord.
Shen Feng could already picture Sha Wujing fleeing before Heavenly Demon. He could not help wondering how that meager death-spirit of Sha Wujing’s, so feeble before Tianmo, had managed to blow apart the fire dragon Tianmo had shaped by divine-force simulation and shatter the spatial bindings.
“If I ever face a danger I cannot even solve myself, do you think you can hold it back?” Su Yan asked with a laugh.
With the map in my hand, I studied it closely. It was marked in great detail. Tucking it into my sleeve, I said, “All right, I’ll send in the troops! But rest easy.” Xun Yi said, “I am willing to stay here as guide and rescue Father and the brothers.” Hearing that, I was delighted; with Xun Yi here, I felt even more at ease.
Hua Shangxue returned to the courtyard by memory. At first it seemed fine, but as the branching paths multiplied and the surrounding sights began to look almost the same, Hua Shangxue grew frustrated.
Soon Yuan Tan and Yuan Shang fought a massive clash. In two months, the two sides fought a hard, unresolved battle, and all the aspiring men were disappointed that the Yuan brothers, without a shred of restraint even before their father’s bones had cooled, snapped at each other like rabid dogs, seemingly determined to drive their blood-kinsmen to their deaths. Yuan family morale and the people's trust both collapsed.
Jing Qi nodded briefly, then turned and left Qianye Residence, riding hard toward the Rain-Sound Tower in the city.
Five minutes after the livestream from Fu Chengyu’s side cut out, a grimy card had appeared in his hand.
Wenli turned and glanced at the empty oven, then realized that the sausages and fried chicken skewers were all startup items from the system, and she had not yet had time to restock them.
In this regard, Yuan Shao was certainly not as strong as the other side, yet everyone thought the two could hardly be enemies.
Chu Yunfei nodded politely on the surface, while secretly feeling relieved in his heart—just moments ago he had thought this allied force was that small.
By now, his physical strength alone had surged to nearly 200,000 jin, ten to twenty percent stronger than even the peak of the ninth tier of lower-grade qi-cultivation.
Laipichong knew that the primordial Pangxun’er was the greatest threat, but being pinned by Mu Ying holding two Heart Swords left him no room to move.
Shen Juan let out a breath of relief, yet felt a little embarrassed, thinking this sister’s emotional intelligence might not be very high.
Today, while searching for spirit herbs on Laolao Mountain, Li Ya fought three body-tempering-peak demons in succession. Each time he used a flickering, uncanny sword method, and after only a few exchanges he could cut them down.
And as a star producer, team captain, and senior figure in the entertainment world, all he needed to do was share his experience with him and give him support and encouragement.
“I still don’t think a brigade-level unit could make Xiao Zhong Yi withdraw his troops, and on every front at that. The deputy chief commander shook his head; reason told him it was impossible.”
The three seemed to be discussing together, but in truth only Li Yin and Dongfang Xiong were the ones speaking while Lin Hao mumbled to himself.
As he finished speaking, Huang Long shook his head, waved once, and drew down a streak of golden light from the sky.
