Twenty-two twenty-two

For practitioners, however, because the path involves defying the heavens to alter one’s fate, their aura of destiny appears purple, much like that of an emperor. This purple aura, too, is categorized into different ranks.

Du Yuan’s eyes flickered slightly. As everyone stood still in their places, and while the others remained kneeling, Du Yuan stepped onto the stage.

A succession of thoughts flashed through the stall owner’s mind, and his expression grew increasingly peculiar.

With a faint chuckle, Xiao Xuan moved his mind, and a vast surge of soul power radiated outward, manifesting as an invisible hand that reached toward the plaque.

For this reason, he even refused the pleas for help from his colleagues within the city. He believed that only by finding a way to eliminate Xu Tian’s troops outside the city could the Communist forces inside be rendered harmless. If he were to divide his already stretched forces further, he would fail to form a focused punch and would be unable to defeat Xu Tian’s unit.

Jiang Kailan was filled with shock. He had never imagined that the Great Gun God System, upon which he had always relied, would have such distinctions of strength. He had assumed that the only one with such rankings was the Great Gun God himself.

"Roar!" A mottled tiger leaped forward with wide strides, full of vigor. Its gaping maw let out a long, thunderous roar, the massive sound waves causing the four wretched figures not far away to tremble incessantly.

As a smile appeared at the corner of the disciple’s mouth, Xiao Yan grinned back. Although he was indeed somewhat exhausted, he had more than enough strength left to deal with this fellow.

Suddenly, a young figure appeared in the darkness. With a few leaps through the mountains, he arrived outside the temple gate. In the moonlight, one could see he was only sixteen or seventeen, his eyes exceptionally bright in the dead of night.

From his rebirth and transmigration to his ascent as the Great Gun God, and through every victory in his competitions, they had asked him countless times, yet he had never explained it to them.

When Zhao Rang woke up, it was already morning, and an air of decadence clung to him.

Directly entering the realm of a Profound Immortal! Zhang Zixing gasped in secret, feeling a flicker of new hope for the Yellow Emperor’s Inner Canon even as he was struck with astonishment.

"Yigong! Yigong—!" The one weeping most bitterly was another veteran general, Huang Gai. Having fought side by side with Han Dang for decades, he now found them separated by life and death. Watching his comrade fall at the hands of the enemy, the stoic and unyielding Huang Gai wept until his eyes bled and the sky seemed to darken.

"You ate the Americans' submarine?" Minister Wu’s eyes were as wide as two large lychees.

Next, Yang Tianwen patiently used his puppets to experiment, their cultivation levels rising steadily. From a low-rank Heavenly God, they gradually reached the peak of the Heavenly God realm, which was the limit of what Yang Tianwen could summon.

When Ghost Wing saw him glance in his direction, he sensed trouble. Just as he was thinking of slipping away, he was caught red-handed by Jing Tian. Although he was neither a Tiger Guard nor a royal bodyguard, both men held ranks higher than his. Now, caught between the two, he truly found himself in a dilemma, unable to advance or retreat, and could only suffer in silence.

The octagonal plate was engraved with the Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches, with a needle in the center, and Tong Yingshi navigated according to its direction. As he flew, he pondered. The reactions of these people were within his expectations, but the fact that Yang Tianwen acted alone sparked doubts in his heart.

"Why should I answer to him!" Yun Lan replied with full confidence. Watching Chan Mian turn and leave without a word, he couldn't help but shiver.

"It’s better not to go down there; it’s too dangerous. What if the singer comes back to life?" Wuyun was terribly timid.

Boss Cao’s face darkened rapidly. He suddenly recalled an important question: why would Uncle Liu risk so much to save him? What was the goal? Would the virtuous Uncle Liu really risk so much just for the sake of past grudges? Was this his true character?

"Then what if I asked you to die?" Qiu Chan’s words were strange, her gaze solemn, with no hint of a joke.

Ji Anning’s face turned red. She dodged the question, saying, "Tenth Brother, I won't dare do it next time." Gu Shinuo smiled and reached out to pinch her cheek, causing Ji Anning to burst into laughter.

Ji Anning followed with a bitter smile. With the family of the eldest Young Mistress Gu pressuring her like this, she wondered if she regretted that decision now.

Wang Si felt that it would be better to take things slowly, waiting a year or two before gradually looking for a suitable shop. However, the silver could not be left idle, so he spoke to Sister-in-law Wang about it.

On this Kunlun Mountain, perhaps the only person who could sense him from afar was Zhen Qianzi.

Looking at the Star-Shattering Divine Sword in his hand as the rust gradually faded and it became brighter and more menacing, Su Lin suddenly felt a sense of familiarity. He then remembered the sword held by the Immortal King he had seen in the illusion that the sword spirit of the Star-Shattering Divine Sword had taken him to; it seemed to look just like this.

The place was all stone. In the corners were several stone basins, in which flames burned for illumination, the crackling sounds bringing warmth to the cold stone room.

The source of this poison was that Heavenly Sovereign-level poison dragon. This toxin could erode all things, but when it encountered the Aura of Sealing, it was as if it had met its natural predator. As the two collided, the Aura of Sealing suffered no damage; instead, layer by layer, it began to surround the Demon Dragon’s venom.

Therefore, if his identity were exposed by Lin Chongxiao because Lian Laiyin had helped him, he would truly have no end of regrets.

"Doctor Zhong, please continue," Song Yao thought carefully about his words, feeling that Doctor Zhong must have an ulterior motive for bringing this up now.
