Chapter 88: Going Online to Ask for Help

Listen carefully, Scent-Finder Mouse. Stay here and behave. If anyone disturbs the formation, call me at once.

“Yes, Master!”

Seeing that his master’s aura was steady, the little thing’s wildly pounding heart finally settled as well.

Yun Xi said generously, “Take this milk fruit as your reward.”

Scent-Finder Mouse rubbed its tiny paws together and thanked her with its bead-black eyes narrowed in delight. Then it happily rolled one of the milk fruits away.

Setting aside the chaos overhead, where everyone was frantically blocking and evading the assault, this wide-ranging attack also forced Chu Yiyun and Luo Li, who had intended to join the encirclement, to launch their own offensive at once.

Looking up, one could see that the dozens of towering trees had suddenly begun to change like a conjurer’s trick: leaves trembling, branches drawing in, and the trees themselves moving, no, walking on their roots.

Thus, no matter which level of divine essence one obtained, once cultivation rose to the divine realm and reached the end of that essence’s rank, one would be halted forever at that boundary, never to break through again in this life.

“This is the move that lets Ba River fight alone and still make Brother Yu find him hard to handle: aura armor!” Ma Ruhong said gravely. Even the foremost expert, Yu Huashan, was deeply wary of it; how could Yang Wanting possibly withstand it?

Although the emperor’s decree had merely ordered the city lord and the defending general to await Weiwei’s instructions, General Qi seemed outwardly courteous toward the arrival of the Fourth Direction Army. Yet Weiwei knew that if she truly asked him to do anything, he would surely be stabbing knives behind her back.

The tragic melodrama nearly made Qi Xing cry himself, while Qi Jing had long since knelt to one side in tears, unable to stop.

Zhang Tao frowned slightly, then his expression changed. “Not good.” The next moment, the ice cocoon suddenly exploded, and a shockwave like a nuclear blast spread in all directions. Zhang Tao and Yang Yulin, being the first to bear the brunt, were instantly unable to steady themselves and were sent flying by the tremendous force.

“Baka!”

The few who had just entered this level and were attacked immediately cursed as they drew their weapons.

Throwing down threats? How trite. Lin Jiaren was not afraid of that at all. It was only that, having intended to keep a low profile, he had somehow already become the central figure.

“In that case, I truly have no reason to trouble him,” Lin Jiaren said. He was not an unreasonable man, and once he learned that the other man’s courtesy name was indeed Boyan, the fire in his heart had lessened considerably.

Lin Yun did not waste any more words with Yue Shi and the others. Before the people of Heavenly Fire Academy had even revealed the full extent of their power, he gave a loud shout, and the Sky-Crushing Sword appeared in his hand.

Before the undead army had even reached the gates of Ironblood City, it had already suffered massive losses. In an instant, thick smoke rose endlessly, boulders rained from the sky, spiked trees erupted from the ground, and beam after beam from magic crystal cannons flashed across the battlefield, filling the entire field with the stench of blood.

After Qiu Shaoze’s duel with Kuang Zhan, he showed no intention of stopping and had already arrived at the Xi Men family estate, as if he meant to exterminate every last one of them.

When the stars shine in the night, loneliness begins to rage everywhere. Excuses are only there to hide. Love is not beyond imagining; with the ending of heaven, I let go of your hand and began to wander aimlessly. Loving you taught me what strength is. My dear, will you hate me? It is because I brought you a wound that cannot fade away.

The atmosphere was somewhat awkward. Wang Peng lifted his teacup and slowly drank the now-cool tea, finding only bitterness in his mouth.

Then Min Ling handed the exquisite longsword in her hand to the twin gatekeepers of the nearby star palace, and with a casual hand seal, another Min Ling appeared beside her with a soft pop. Two more pops followed, and the two became four.

Seeing Jing Moxuan sitting contentedly by the bed, Han Shuier could hardly contain the anger rising in her heart.
