Volume One, Chapter 102: The Hunters' Organization
Orders were issued in rapid succession, and each defensive sector began its self-inspection.
In the blink of an eye, five minutes passed.
Li Cheng was the first to appear, his expression grim, as no issues had been found within his jurisdiction.
"It is not in my sector."
"Understood!"
Zhao Weijun did not speak, simply nodding in acknowledgment.
Time ticked away, bit by bit.
However, the four spiritual objects only sensed the golden radiance; they never caught a glimpse of the "Ten Thousand Rain Sword." Even after the golden light faded, they had no opportunity to behold its true form.
"Pfft!" The collapse of the Horse-Face spirit caught Yasumuro Toshio off guard. Though he could not see the specific situation from the hallway, the intense backlash caused by the entity's death made him vomit a mouthful of blood.
Before Yao Xinluo married into the family, there had been attempts to prevent her from conceiving. However, her surroundings were strictly guarded, and it was impossible to tamper with her food. Without drugs to interfere, and with the couple inseparable day and night, how could she not conceive?
Qi'er did not immediately take the ruyi. She glanced at Empress Cui, who sat at the head of the table. Seeing the Empress nod with a smile, she hesitantly accepted the ruyi and removed the floral crown from her head to hand it to Xiao Qing.
Akihiro Hanain was so surprised that he forgot to retreat, feeling the soft palm gently stroking his chest. As he lowered his head, his gaze seemed drawn by some gravitational force, fixed firmly upon the woman's bosom.
Guided by intent, a dozen ninjas from the Nara clan followed in Shikamaru's wake, utilizing their shadow secret techniques to restrain the Ten-Tails.
"This truly is the Transformation Array. Those people have been searching everywhere for it, never realizing that the entrance right before us is the array itself." Zitong felt a surge of emotion. "It is a pity that from this day forward, there will be no more Transformation Array." Having lost her parents at a young age, she had never been taught such things.
The car door opened, and Weiyang stepped out first. Standing by the vehicle, she extended her right hand toward Murong Qiqi inside.
Sure enough, Jiu Cheng returned to report that Da Ma had discovered a suit of armor within the tomb. It turned out to belong to this General She. It seemed he had died unjustly and tragically; even the heavens wept for him. Having failed to complete his mission before death, combined with the massacre at Gao Manor, the surging yin energy made it no surprise that he had become a zombie.
From start to finish, Master Senma did not cast a single protective spell on himself. Even more bizarrely, he rarely took the initiative to attack; he simply waited in silence for his opponents to struggle through their incantations and spells, only to unleash a countermeasure that arrived before their attacks could land.
Before he spoke, Shi Jingtang and Sang Weihan had already predicted what Fan Zhi might say on behalf of Zhang Mai. In Sang Weihan’s estimation, Zhang Mai could only be protesting or threatening them regarding the Shi Jin expedition. Whether it was protest or intimidation, Shi Jingtang and Sang Weihan were well-prepared to respond.
The renewed disappearance of the Heavenly Domain Idlers plunged the Heavenly Domain into a deep gloom once more. Had they received some intelligence? Were they so unsure of victory against this new crisis that they chose to vanish again?
"A child? How old is this person?" Shen Jiao thought that anyone capable of striking fear into Ma Xinghua must be at least the age of Zhao Si, but who could have guessed it was merely a child?
Before the others could react, I snatched the firearm, removed the magazine, dipped it into the secret treasure Jiu Cheng had prepared, and handed it back to him.
The first location was a mountain legendarily said to be the burial site of Genghis Khan. But when they reached the halfway point, the expedition team's horses refused to climb any further. In the end, the members took a helicopter to the summit, but they found nothing worth celebrating.
Against the Tongluo, Gudu could still hold his own, but if Bilge were to arrive... Gudu recalled the scenes from when he had seen Bilge before. At that time, he had still possessed Kucha, and Bilge had already treated him with arrogance. Now that he had lost his territory, he could only imagine the humiliation he would suffer if he were to meet Bilge again.
