Chapter 218: Leng Yanran, Liyang Empire!

The quintessential cluster of energy spoken of was the very same pure essence incinerated by the soul-fire when Li Changan once slew the Solar Emperor.

At that time, for fear that the soul-fire had not utterly purged the dark energy, Li Changan had chosen not to absorb the flame directly, opting instead to secrete it away in a relatively secure place, intending to examine it thoroughly once time permitted.

And upon careful investigation later on, Li Changan discovered that within that energy indeed lay

These guests, aside from journalists and personnel from various sectors, were all the high society and elite of Xijing City, gathered together for the sole purpose of witnessing the grand occasion of the Bai Group—one of Xijing's few massive conglomerates—changing hands.

"What do you think you're doing? I'm telling you, stop bothering me! Don't go thinking you hold weight just because your rank is high in the provinces. Let me tell you, this is the capital. Believe it or not, I'll have your skin peeled off and send you packing home tomorrow," Huang Minghai bellowed in fury.

The attacker was none other than Smoothie. Her slash not only carried the terrifying, sharp edge of a great swordsman but also contained the mastery of her Wring-Wring Fruit ability; even her slashes could wring the moisture from an enemy, turning it into juice.

Xihe finally obtained the opportunity to enter the palace and saw with her own eyes her imperial father, whose physical health was largely unharmed, though his countenance seemed somewhat desolate and lonely. Afterward, on her way to visit the bedridden Empress, she was intercepted by the Third Princess, Chunyi, who escorted her directly out of the palace.

After all, with the recent incident of Qin Yuan being falsely accused fresh in mind, it was easy for people to mistakenly assume that Mu Qingtian was the mastermind behind last night's events.

This was Mornodo, a city established by the barbarians upon the Barbarian Hills. Three days ago, after transforming his orc lineage, Sauron had arrived here with Hans, renting a house in the city to open the Wildfire Potion Shop.

Feng Yuetong pointed forward, and a door swung open at the gesture. Miao'er, who had been standing inside, stepped out of her own accord to assist the head of the Ye family as he walked in.

"What!" Lei Yufei heard this and could not help but feel her eyes redden once more. Her return to this place was, naturally, because her kin were all here. With Lei Badao dead, these were the only relatives she had left; she had never imagined that Grandma Lei, who had been so exceedingly kind to her, had also been murdered. How could she not be grief-stricken?

Long Zhan and another God Emperor from the Sun-Chasing Sect took the lead in soaring into the void, drawing their talismans as they faced the thirty foreign God Emperors.

During several days of flight, Zhao Shiyu discovered that Qu Zhu's reverse scales were true treasures; these two reverse scales seemed specifically designed for this pair of heaven-defying Draconian Wing magical treasures.

Qingfeng: What kind of warning possesses such divine power as to resolve a predicament that vexed him for years? Despite numerous efforts within the country, the result remained the same old story. Could it be that "smoking is harmful to health"?

At the thought of these things, Chen Banxia grew inexplicably despondent, to the point where she could muster no appetite whatsoever even when faced with a table laden with delicacies, the feeling mirroring the onset of an illness.

Shizi took Tong Muhe's words with extreme gravity, pondering for a long while before uttering a sentence that sent a cold shiver down Tong Muhe's spine.

Jinyu: I have already persevered for seven or eight years, at least enough to hold out until retirement. I challenge myself every single day, so stop saying I have nothing to do. Claiming I am idle will mislead the audience. Have you engraved that into your memory?

Xuanyuan Lang stood up with a smile. By now, victory was securely within his grasp, and he feared no sudden interlopers who might disrupt his plans. He gently patted Xuanyuan Kong's shoulder as he spoke.

Although the Fire Spiritual Physique and the Water Spiritual Physique were not inherently characterized by physical fortitude, they were still vastly more robust than ordinary constitutions; for an ordinary person to contend with them was nothing short of seeking death.

Shen Lian's low, deep voice broke Han Rouxue out of her wandering thoughts. She hurriedly scrambled off Shen Lian and hid behind a boulder not far away, quietly lifting her camera to take a photograph, but remembering how the lens had suddenly shattered before, she hastily detached her precious, high-fidelity lens to inspect it.

"Since I have chosen this path, if death comes, then so be it. I prepared myself for it long ago," Zhang Fengguang replied without a moment's hesitation.
