49. Substitution

Elder You, this is the Ning residence. Even if you are a person of status, please mind your words. Do you really take the Ning family for something to be bullied so easily? Seeing this, Ning Muhe naturally stepped forward to defend them.

Elder You looked at the young girl before him and let out a cold snort.

The Ning family certainly puts on quite an airs. It seems I have come to the wrong place. Old man Ning, I have brought your people back, and I have delivered my message. This is the last time I will ever help your family. The tides in Sucheng are truly about to turn, and it seems your Ning family's century of prosperity has reached its end. The one you relied on to rise and rebuild back then—it appears the time has come to pay it all back.

Having said that, Elder You likewise strode outward in displeasure...

Heh, consider you still have some self-awareness, Daoist Shanxu said with a cold laugh, his expression tinged with a trace of arrogance.

Jingyuan, with an ancient bronze lamp suspended above his head, stood right before the thunder waterfall, his eyes filled with absolute horror.

The Butcher's face was swollen like a steamed bun, covered everywhere in bloody gashes and tear stains, and he was emitting whimpering sounds from his mouth, looking utterly miserable.

Even Wei Zheng, that picky old faultfinder, raised no objections, and the others had no objections either. Just as Li Er was about to give the final verdict, a voice rang out.

Tiol was extremely familiar with this particular aspect of her mother's personality. Therefore, on the one hand, she eagerly longed to receive the love and regard of the Matriarch Vol, while on the other hand, she was deeply terrified that the secrets she held would be discovered by the Matriarch Vol, thereby arousing her suspicion and ultimately bringing down a fatal disaster upon herself.

That was a conch-like instrument, likely something akin to a horn. However, at this moment, Nolan did not blow into it, but instead placed it close to her ear.

You really understand me, Tucker gave a dry laugh, and then drove the carriage toward the other side of the vast lake.

Even so, the amount of spiritual energy required by Liyan was still vastly insufficient; calling it a drop in the bucket would be no exaggeration.

The guards inside Ye Xiaoming's estate were heavily stationed. Along the way, they encountered several squads of patrolling demon soldiers who showed the utmost respect to Lian Haiping, bowing in salute before resuming their patrol.

A sea of fire immediately surged forward, and bolts of fire dragons soared into the air, roaring as they charged in all directions.

Jiang Rongyao wanted to say something more, but a sudden commotion came from the doorway, and both Jiang Rongyao and Nong Jingcheng turned their gazes toward the entrance in unison.

Why should I regret it? They deserved to die. The path of an emperor has always been a lonely one; I, Nanli, have never needed any stumbling blocks, he said coldly, showing not the slightest bit of mercy. It was as if he were recalling events from several lifetimes ago, yet not a single ripple stirred within his heart.

Yes! The man in white bowed respectfully once more, gently closed the door, and departed.

Having just come out from the palace, Your Highness probably need not enter; His Majesty has already retired, said Han Qiu.

Your Highness, do your best. With just these four short words, the Underworld King lifted his gaze slightly. What he said was indeed reasonable, but he could not bring himself to do it. If one were to regain what was lost only to lose it again, what reason would there be to survive alone for the rest of one's days?

In truth, Jin Yang was worried that they wouldn't be able to reach an agreement, because if Qi Ye found Shaoshi first, he would find himself in a completely passive position.

A martial artist standing sideways in the forest stepped forward upon hearing this, faint blue light rippling across his body. A chilling intent to kill radiated a bone-chilling cold, akin to ice pith frozen at the bottom of an abyss.

The maximum speed of a low-tier Divine Lord is no more than ten times the speed of light—and that is only achievable by Divine Lords with immensely powerful innate talents matching various treasures. Someone like Kang Mang'ang, who can reach thirty times the speed of light relying purely on his own explosive power, is simply at a demonic monster level.

With Huang Yun's strength, she was unable to separate the two of them, nor could she become any sort of barrier between them.

Yang Zitong could not answer this question. Had she truly known there was a newcomer, she would never have made such a mistake.

That palm strike appeared casual, yet a mass of black Qi suddenly spewed from his palm, instantly condensing into a dark fierce tiger with ribs sprouting wings. With a whoosh, the fierce tiger beat its wings and soared toward the void.

Yay... That's wonderful, Jingjing knew that Eldest Aunt loved me the most! Ding Jingjing danced with joy.

Tianming drew Feiheng; he was going to force his way through. If these mechanisms were purely mechanical traps, he might still have a way, but with all those messy esoteric divination arts mixed in, forcing his way through was his only remaining option.

However, just as she was tidying up and preparing to leave for work, Cheng Lingzhi received a call from Li Huanran, inviting her out to dinner. After a moment of thought, Cheng Lingzhi agreed.

Beaten to a pulp like this, he could only look at a pretty girl without being able to touch her, and his heart was already burning with frustration. Yet his wife had to rush over to pick a fight—if he didn't vent all this pent-up rage on her, would he even be himself?

With a bang, the ever-expanding bizarre purple wood forcefully blocked the assault of Zhushi Juedao's heavenly blade, saving Feng Juechen.

Her legs were crossed and entwined with someone else's thighs, and the tender flesh at the root of her thighs could even feel that someone's early-morning, restless, misbehaving appendage.

Of course, there were also people like the Prophet Murong, but what use is there in merely staying alive? To have discarded the most precious thing a person possesses is tantamount to death itself!

Even the City Lord was too late to intervene. Although he was in the Upper Spirit Realm, the distance was simply too great, and Xue Bufufei had launched a sudden, ferocious assault, driving his sharp blade straight toward Lin Xi's chest.

The seeds of unease had already been sown deep within her heart, yet now, taking advantage of her mental exhaustion and waning spirit, they broke through the soil, took root, sprouted, and unfurled their leaves.

As it happened, the spiritual plant yield of Flower-Fruit Mountain had increased dramatically, and countless third-generation spiritual vegetables had been stockpiled. Therefore, Sun Wukong conspired with Tony Stark to host a banquet to reward everyone, while taking the opportunity to forge the Flower-Fruit Mountain Academy into a heavenly sanctuary.

Fortunately, his Furnace Body technique had already reached the second realm, and he no longer needed to burn his true essence; otherwise, simply redeeming Pills of Primal Genesis would have been enough to make him suffer.

At this moment, Rena wore a look of grief and indignation, dressed in scant attire, with her pair of fair, slender legs completely bared to the air.

She raised her head to glance at Jia Xu opposite her, thinking inwardly: If it were this fellow, he probably would have bolted the moment he sensed the situation turning sour.

You guys were truly too reckless. How could you simply head off to the Divine Realm like that? Weren't you just letting yourselves be slaughtered? Fortunately, the Sword Saint's sword Qi protected you, allowing you to narrowly escape with your lives, but it is a pity that the Ghost Emperor fell in battle.

Having camped out in the open over the past two days, the group had neither eaten well nor rested properly. Therefore, Baiyang found the largest inn in the town and booked a superior room for each of them so everyone could get a good rest.
