Volume 1, Chapter 64: Pulling Off Something Big
"The twenty-fourth year of the Dashang Dynasty, spring."
Panic gripped the hearts of everyone in San Antonio, while the Cleveland Cavaliers erupted into wild cheers following David Wu's thunderous dunk.
Now, the most powerful masters of the evil sects, those in the Dongxuan and Huashen realms, had been slain instantly with a single blow from Jian Yi. Although the remaining evil cultists were numerous in number, how could they possibly hope to withstand such might? In the blink of an eye, they were utterly massacred.
"It hasn't even been half a year. How did you get here?" Mao Leyan guessed that he had mistakenly wandered through a gate of time and space, and once the gate closed, he could no longer return.
After chatting with Ji Jifa for quite a long time, it was now time to sleep. Long Shaoyan's sharp ears caught the sound of maidservants walking toward their room, intending to wait upon them for rest. "It's time to sleep." Long Shaoyan gave Helan Yao a meaningful look and left her with those words.
Although the discovery of nuclear fission would change the world forever in the long run, it had no impact whatsoever on the immediate war situation.
This was also David Wu's third assist of the game. For someone who had contributed zero points on the offensive end in the first half, his performance of 11 points and 3 assists since the start of the second half was already quite astonishing.
With the addition of a super-expert possessing such terrifying strength as Jian Yi, the situation on the entire battlefield had transformed in an instant.
"Qu Tan, you too, hand over the fifty thousand gold to Mr. Wu." Qu Shang nearby did not stand on ceremony, giving instructions to the steward beside him in a low voice that just happened to be overheard by the three young nobles opposite them.
Although they were certain that the place was safe, the vanguard soldier still obeyed orders and went to search it in accordance with the commander's directive. Just as the vanguard had foreseen, it was as peaceful as usual; not only was there no one lurking there, but no one had ever lurked there before. Aside from a few blades of grass snapped by birds, there were no traces of large animals or humans having stepped upon the ground.
After all, he had just missed a shot earlier, and in tonight's game, he still had not scored a single point. Therefore, for the Cleveland Cavaliers at this moment, if they wanted to open up the game, they could not possibly keep letting David Wu, who had yet to score tonight, hold the ball.
"Ah, I truly never expected to meet a senior from the ancient times. This junior pays his respects." As the Dragon King spoke, he clasped his fists toward Heshuai and bowed deeply. Heshuai naturally knew that this bow was not meant for him, but rather for the large parrot perched upon his shoulder.
Utter darkness—even though Zhao Hao could now see everything clearly even in the pitch of night, once he stepped into this temple, he still could not perceive even a sliver of light.
A third Falcon fighter jet already sat on the side tarmac, yet all three Falcons combined were not as large as the "Albatross" transport plane before them. Its massive form crouched on the ground like some strange, colossal dragon. Though she knew it was a man-made artifact, Masora still felt an indescribable awe welling up within her.
Furthermore, this terrifying energy overflowed from Chu Han's body, taking on a tangible substance and gradually forming a sort of illusory shape. Yet, because it was indistinct and constantly scattered and re-condensed due to Chu Han's emotions, it was difficult to discern exactly what the thing was.
Lady Geng breathed a sigh of relief, stood up, and bowed to Yinmeng and the others, considering it a gesture of gratitude for not pressing the matter further.
Sun Chao's martial arts had reached the peak of hidden force, and his strength made him a top-tier expert of his generation. That he was willing to live in seclusion likely meant there was an untold story shrouded in mystery.
