Chapter 42: Unexpectedly, It Was a Woman

After all, Su Xuanhao was the eldest young master of the Su family. No matter where he went to spend money, the owners would always welcome him with flattering smiles. He had never experienced the embarrassment of revealing his identity and offering extra money, yet failing to book a private room.

“We’re only meeting here. It doesn’t have to be in a private room. Let’s just wait in the main hall. Miss, if we sit in the hall to wait for our friends, it won’t affect your business, will it?” Lin...

A stream of liquid splashed down onto Wen Miao’s trembling body. When the other children saw their leader do this, they rushed forward to imitate him.

Fourth-rank barbaric beasts possessed considerable intelligence, especially the clever monkey tribe. The Monkey King let out a roar, and a dozen monkeys leapt from the forest, blocking the mouth of the valley. Two peak third-rank great apes guarded the exit menacingly.

“Mu Feng has improved a great deal,” Ying thought to himself in admiration. At that moment, Mu Feng darted past Ying’s side and surged ahead.

Liu Yiyi seemed to notice the man’s surprise and said coolly, “One must go mad to truly live. Becoming the head of the Liu family is hard; being a good head is even harder; and becoming the greatest family head in Liu history is harder still. There’s nothing surprising about it—one only needs to be ruthless with oneself.”

He tried to clench the hand that had just cast the zero spell into a fist to unleash a final explosive blow, but found that an invisible force prevented him from closing his hand.

At this moment, Mu Feng was half-kneeling in the sand, his body covered with wounds from the explosion of water orbs. Though his body was healing as fast as possible, it would still take time to recover fully.

Ji Tiejun smiled. “You don’t suspect Lu Chenlong’s corpse was a fake, do you? Back then, even though there was no DNA identification, fingerprint verification was available. The height and build were correct, and the tattoo on his left arm was the best evidence.”

Though there was no instant headshot, the scene before them still made the three Saints gasp in shock, cold sweat breaking out across their backs.

He had once impersonated the White Dragon Envoy. Now, facing the real one, he couldn’t help but be curious. Following Fang Siruo’s gaze, he saw that the envoy’s features and build were indeed somewhat similar to his own, though slightly older. No wonder Sister Zhu Ji had him play the impostor.

The group nodded. I had Mo Yue take a deep breath, then led her swimming across. This time, having mastered the technique of moving my bone wings underwater, I brought her to the passageway with stone steps before she even had to hold her breath.

This was not the Zhou Garden—there were no rules suppressing cultivation realms. The opponent might be at the peak of the Nether Passage realm, but how could they be a match for a Star Domain cultivator with a domain of their own?

Zhang Liang smiled as he spoke. The thought of fighting someone of Martial Lord Bi Xuan’s caliber filled him with overwhelming excitement, making him want to throw his head back and roar.

For the sake of success, Ye Qianqian had sacrificed far too much. They had considered every possible mishap. Ye Qianqian even offered herself up, instructing Jia Qi to pierce his carotid artery with a hairpin during their encounter.

However, Chen Xue was a master of the Myriad Transformations realm, while Zi Ning was only at the God of War level—how could she hope to stop Chen Xue?

In the dead of night, a shadowy figure crept into the inn. After rifling through the kitchen, the figure scaled the courtyard wall and slipped away.

For his fourth target, Lei Li chose Capricorn of the Goat Constellation. The man, who looked very much like Huan Chuan, was decapitated in a single stroke. Blood sprayed instantly, and the head flew more than a dozen yards.

Li San was deep in thought. If Wu Jiale was telling the truth, they had all wasted their efforts today—still unsure if the old Wu family shop was even the original crime scene.

“Since you’ve drawn them all out, why let them go back?” Qu Xiangfan asked, face dark. “You don’t look like someone who goes soft. In just this short while, I’ve gotten a splitting headache from your inexplicable actions.”
