Volume One, Chapter 33: I Want Him Crushed to Death Beneath a Horse’s Hooves

The Divine Axe could help him clear away obstacles, but it could not enhance his practical combat experience. Looking back, most of his real-world combat took place before he reached the Seventh-Grade Core Condensation realm. Later on, such experiences gradually dwindled, as most encounters became one-sided crushing victories.

Qin Feng acted after Huang Tianlong, yet his speed far exceeded that of his opponent, and with a single slap, he sent Huang Tianlong flying.

She had not expected to run into her father, who was dragging her younger sister, Shi Xiujin, along to lodge a complaint. She wanted to avoid the situation, but it was already too late.

"How about this: I will assign someone from the city to you, specifically to coordinate relations across all sectors. With his assistance, you will be able to proceed without any obstacles," Guo Xirui proposed.

While Su Mian was lost in a somewhat melancholy daze, she not only spotted Lin Qingqing but, to her surprise, also saw Qin Mu after a long time. She was momentarily startled, her expression softened, and she looked back at Gu Zhixing with a pleasant surprise.

The competition venue was packed with people. Ordinarily, there shouldn't have been so many people there at this hour, yet now, crowds were everywhere, watching him hand over the money to the people in the sea of spectators.

"Master, aren't you being a bit biased? You only gave the new arrival clothes; we want some too!" the girl Huang Die pouted, looking adorable.

"If you have any explanation, let’s hear it." King Yaxia looked impatient. The more intensely Xue Cheng acted, the more he felt that the betrayal was inextricably linked to the Blood Tribe and the Witch Tribe.

Although Ping An had been caught off guard, he did not feel the same anxiety as Uncle and Aunt Wang. He had already decided that if the town mayor sent someone to curry favor or recruit him, he would play along on the surface while reporting the matter to Qiao Hu in secret.

With a flick of his mind, his entire body was instantly encased in shimmering, crystalline ice armor. Under the reflection of the lights, it was exceptionally striking. Yet, these ice crystals held no chill. When the golden beams struck Long Changjiang's armor, they left him completely unscathed.

The surging soul power contained within this Heaven-grade spirit herb was enough to overwhelm even Chu Yi, despite him having reached the pinnacle of the Heaven-grade.

I doubt the authenticity of this plan. In this world, aside from gods, who could live for over two thousand years? Why would people from two millennia ago designate a plan whose outcome they could never see? It defies all logic.

Old Man Xu was very low-key. Unlike other big stars, he brought only one assistant to Yunxi University and even arrived in an ordinary Volkswagen sedan.

Huang Yunqiu remained silent. The wandering spirits posing as underworld envoys suddenly surged in, and Huang Yunqiu waited quietly.

It must be said that although the conflict between the Dark Web and Chu Yi was long-standing, the Dark Web was an organization that highly valued transactional integrity.

On the way back to Kaiyang, I called Di San to ask if he had gathered the items. He told me that most of them were ready, and the rest could be collected within two or three days. I told him I was free now and to call me once everything was prepared.

The Great Emperor Ziwei’s mouth twitched. As one of the Four Sovereigns, he was a figure of immense prestige. Furthermore, his subordinates—Bian Zhuang, the Great Emperor Zhenwu, and the Holy Lord Yisheng—were renowned figures in the Divine Realm whose true status was no lower than his own; he had once been their superior and had vaguely become the leader of the Four Sovereigns.

Beyond the three major forces, over a dozen prodigies at the Sixth Stage of the Saint King realm and fifty more at the Fifth Stage had arrived.

"Manager Li, rest assured! Since we dared to sign for this pile of things, we know exactly what we are doing. Just make sure you don't renege on the debt once we find the people for you!" I said to Manager Li.

In truth, to eliminate a True Immortal, one only needed the spaceship to fire its main cannon; it would surely blast the target into nothingness.

I don’t know how much time had passed since I walked out. Han Mo was still sitting there, and two or three cigarette butts already filled the ashtray beside him.

"Who exactly is hiding in the car? Why does he give me such a dangerous feeling?" Fang Yunsheng felt fine beads of sweat beginning to seep from his forehead—a sensation he had never experienced before.

The boy was named Chen Hu, a close friend of Bai Yu. He had just been making a casual guess, but he had not expected S to be so important to Bai Yu.

"Scoundrel! A pack of lies!" Zhu Qizhen was furious; his face turned ashen, and he flicked his sleeves and left. The ministers looked at one another, then turned their eyes to Li Xian, their expressions filled with confusion and shock.

Qianqian saw Lin Hao lying on the ground. She was stunned at first, and then a surge of immense joy welled up in her heart.

She spread her hands; a flame appeared in her left palm, and an ice ball coalesced in her right. Then, the flame transformed into a firebird dancing with flickering lightning, while the ice ball cracked and shifted into an ancient soldier clad in armor, wreathed in electricity.

"Just wait here for me." Cen Ling couldn't be bothered to waste words with her and turned to walk toward the registration desk.

Su Yu pushed open the door to victory. He emerged, and the surrounding tourists were all stunned by his attire. Su Yu smiled; he had finally escaped.

Jiang Yue’s consciousness was already fading. She hunched over against the door, gasping for breath. Hearing the man’s voice, she felt a sense of familiarity. Slowly, she lifted her head to look at Pei Jiqing, then leaned forward, collapsing toward him.

Xu Bai glanced at Shang Lu with slight surprise. It was clear that Shang Lu was teaching the Prince of Yi the way of kingship and governance. As a leader, one cannot act solely on personal whim; the current Emperor, the Prince of Yi's father, was a living example of that folly.

When he first learned that the Tree Shepherd had appeared in the Abyss Valley, he had a bad premonition. Now, the premonition had come true. Most importantly, they could not stop such an alliance unless they launched an all-out assault right then and there.
