Chapter 31: Seizing the Report (Foreshadowing for Chapter 90, a Must-Read!)

With this thought in mind, the shadow guard ceased all speech. He reached out, scooped up Chopper, and sprinted directly toward the Marine Headquarters, heading for the Marshal’s office.

The black, phantom-like sphere moved with the speed of a streak of light, vanishing in a blink as it slammed into the sword-shield formed by the ten-meter Sword Domain without meeting the slightest resistance.

It made sense, really. Given her past actions at the academy, it was clear she had the courage to act foolishly but lacked the intellect to think things through.

As Chen Fan’s cultivation base improved, the power of the Spirit Severing Finger had fallen behind and was essentially obsolete. Thus, the Great Bright Fist served as the perfect supplement for his current needs.

"Do you really think your grandfather would need my help? It’s only an eighth-tier immortal beast. If I were to intervene, where would that leave his pride?" Zheng Chen explained.

After only a few exchanges, Han Litian let out a miserable shriek, coughing up a spray of blood. The mist of blood, saturated with his true essence, shimmered in the air, transforming into something as brilliant and dazzling as the Red Sky.

Yet, beneath those dark clouds, the people in the villages scattered across the nearby hills were terrified.

"By cooperating with the Vath family, you won't have to stay in the shadows forever; you could walk openly throughout the Maha Galaxy. Even if you don't care, what about your descendants? Have you ever asked if they are willing to live like this for the rest of their lives?"

Once the plan to head to the Sea of Resentment was solidified, Ge Yunfan lacked the power to intervene and could only agree to Chen Fan’s course of action.

"It’s fine. After taking the medicine tonight, you’ll be able to get out of bed tomorrow," Su Ruoli said, putting away her silver needles.

Nearby, Miao Ruoguo, the five elders, and the captain of the guard stood back, watching coldly. They dared not rush in rashly, for a master of the Transformation Realm stood within—a single man holding the pass, capable of stopping ten thousand.

"Hmph, Cheng Ran, have you no shame? If you have the guts, let’s have a proper, honorable fight! Is it really that satisfying to act so sneakily, relying on demonic beasts to attack our Heavenly Sovereign Alliance?" At this moment, unable to contain his rage, Li Wuyi couldn't help but lash out at Cheng Ran.

After a flurry of chaotic movements by Zhuge Liuniang, Qin Feng finally managed to vomit all the foul-smelling filth. Feeling the cool breeze on his face, his mind cleared significantly.

"I know," I replied with a bitter smile. How could I not know that Cao Fei wanted to show off? But damn it, I truly couldn't swallow this insult.

"...However, we will also step up our efforts to stabilize the situation—before things reach the point of no return," Jill said, her tone heavy.

Huang Jing walked with measured strides toward the two young men on the ground. Their eyes were filled with terror, mixed with resentment and irritation; clearly, it was their first time being taught a lesson like this.

"Brother, we were chatting so well just a moment ago. I’m only following orders, so please don't make things difficult for me!" The young man’s expression was somewhat resentful, yet he continued to offer well-meaning advice.

She looked like a drowning person gasping for air. Yet, she maintained control, struggling to keep herself from showing the unsightly signs of her condition.

As they reached a certain height, the black and white energies suddenly exploded, scattering into a vast, thin mist. The color of the mist shifted, no longer just black and white, but shimmering with five hues: red, yellow, blue, cyan, and gold.

Gulutai’s composed smile vanished instantly, replaced by a trace of unease and trepidation.

Xue'er leaned in, sniffing Bai Qing from left to right, before finally nudging his arm with her forehead and burrowing into the crook of his arm to rub against him. This intimate gesture brought Bai Qing great joy, and he wrapped his arms around her neck, stroking her forehead.

Meanwhile, Jiang Fu’s eyes burned with a flicker of excitement and fanaticism, even as a sweet taste welled up in his throat.

Zhao Chuanyang pulled the car over and walked to the entrance, inputting his fingerprint into the digital lock. Since he had changed the lock, no one else had broken into his home, but he decided he couldn't let his guard down; who knew when the organization’s people might show up at his door?

"It’s my first time being someone’s boyfriend, so I don't know the rules. You can be angry, but you cannot leave. If you’re really that furious, you can hit me, but you cannot attack my heart!" Facing Xia Liangcha’s look of disdain, Xiao Cheng hurried to defend himself.

But as they watched Xia Liangcha close in on them step by step, backing down felt too humiliating. After all, they were all people who "walked the path," so they had to grit their teeth and surround her.

As Ye Xiao carefully studied the secret technique of the Ten-Step Sword, he subconsciously began to practice it.

After some thought, Nie Tian decided to walk in the opposite direction to see what exactly was happening.

Although Shi Lei had been expelled from the Shi family, he still bore the name. His loss of face was the family's loss of face. Given the Shi family’s prominent status in Chunyang City, once this matter spread, they would undoubtedly become the laughingstock of others.

Su Yun disliked noisy scenes the most, but he had promised Ren He he would accompany her, and he could not break his word.

Previously, he had intended to leave the Li estate at the first opportunity, but now, he suddenly changed his mind and decided to stay a while longer.
