Volume One, Chapter 108: She Is Different

Fu Yu finally came to a slow halt and turned around.

Before her stood Lu Jingyan, his steps heavy as he blocked her path.

The usual gentle mask on his face was cracked, revealing a rare streak of dark anger. His eyes locked onto her as if trying to see through her very soul.

“Don’t you have anything to say to me?”

From shock and anger to sudden guilt, all three faces showed an overwhelming sense of shame.

“Looks like putting you in charge of everything has indeed delayed your cultivation; the progress is a bit slow.” Back in the courtyard, Ren Jie, after having Chang Laosi practice casually, expressed dissatisfaction with his level of skill.

“I only know this: of the other nine, each is older than Your Highness, and among them, three are contemporaries of mine.” Tai Anyin said little else, but these words already revealed many crucial points.

At that moment, Ren Jie couldn’t help but smile wryly, thinking of the chubby fellow. If he were here now, she would surely be delighted and excited to share this with them.

After digesting all this, Lin Ke felt his mindset undergo a tremendous transformation. At the same time, the World Tree responded, beginning a new phase of growth, causing the entire divine realm to expand alongside it.

Yin Ting pouted, a hint of anger coloring her words: “I’ve recorded all the knowledge recently shared in my notebook. If you want to learn, read it yourself. Just don’t waste my time, or I’ll never bother with you again.” Saying this, she turned and walked away.

Fira, ranked just below the Red-Eyed Emperor Luo among the top masters, held fifth place in the inner academy. Though a tier below the full-moon level elites like Red Eye, she was far stronger than most students, especially compared to the top three reserve third-tier generals.

Yet, the memory of True Void Heaven’s Seal was a leap in levels. How long Li Fool endured the thunder’s refining was unknown to Zhou Yan, but after a time, Zhou Yan sensed a strange distortion in the flow of time. His perception momentarily stalled, then resumed.

That single finger strike carried the formidable bloodline strength of the Giant God Clan and the law comprehension of Xin Wuhen.

Just as he puzzled over this, Su Wan noticed a faint light slipping through the door crack. Frowning, she thought, “Chen Chu actually dared to sneak into my room?!”

When Wen Changqing saw Qiao Rong agree to keep a cat, his expression softened considerably, no longer the rigid coldness from before.

However, then Su Momo and Su Weiguo appeared in view, relieving his tension. He then sank down beside the wild boar’s carcass.

Su Weiguo seemed uneasy, wanting to escort Mei Ruolan home but fearing gossip. In the end, he pulled Zhang Xinguo into the car as well.

At this moment, his thin lips pressed tight. Though his usual calmness remained, his brows were deeper, and a subtle irritation lingered.

When the two reached downstairs, the sandstorm had already arrived, growing fierce and unstoppable. They couldn’t break free. Chen Xi held Chen Xiao’s hand and whispered a question.

Days later, nourished by the dripping dew from the great tree’s branches, the seeds of the plantain weed finally sprouted.

The mysterious figure clenched his teeth and stomped hard, then leapt forward toward Chen Xiao and his group.

Some demons with special abilities possessed the power of rebirth; even death was no end to them. As long as their souls survived or their rebirth vessels remained intact, they could resurrect infinitely.

“Hehe, we’re just good friends,” Xia Qian Ge said. “We’re all gaming enthusiasts with lots in common, so we get along well.”
