Chapter Eighty-Five: The River God and His Brother

After the martial uncle and nephew, each lost in their own thoughts, had both finished bathing and changed their clothes, the sun was already close to the zenith. In mid-March, the town of Blackwater was not particularly warm even at noon, so the two of them set out in that fresh, pleasant weather.

The streets were crowded, most of the people having come specially from elsewhere to attend the Ice River Festival. There were not so many local residents of Blackwater Town; the majority were vendors with stalls.

Ming Shuang followed silently behind his martial uncle. The martial uncle did not take the initiative to speak either, and the awkward silence between them seemed strangely out of place amid the lively noise around them.

“Aah! The River God!”

Suddenly, a shrill scream rang out from the crowd, and at once the people nearby surged frantically toward one place.

Viya and the others could not endure the stench, so they kept far away, looking at the poor survivor.

A flute melody drifted from the high platform, carrying before the crowd the boundless beauty of mountains and rivers. The gifted scholar stood at the center of the music, and this was perhaps the true meaning of the piece.

Qing Yue looked around at the scene and realized that, indeed, compared with Chusheng, the forces here under Yao Mo were much thinner.

Zhao Xingcai nodded, agreeing with Viya’s assessment. She had personally felt the growth of Viya’s strength. Her own power had come from an enhancement injection, yet Viya, without any such enhancement, could still match her evenly. It was truly hard to imagine.

In truth, asking about things I do not know is no different from asking in vain. If others answer honestly, that is one thing; if they lie, there is no way to tell.

After shutting the door, Liu Ye only then discovered that Chen Tian had no idea when he had already clung to her leg and squeezed himself into the corner.

Lin Sen landed steadily on the ground. Looking at the level five monster behind him, he smiled and ran toward Bai Susu.

Only the beating of his own heart echoed through the entire space, and the muffled groan from before had also vanished into the darkness.

“Mother, don’t worry too much. I’ll be fine. I’m going.” Before the words had fully fallen, his figure was already out of sight.

Suddenly, as if noticing something, He Tong scrutinized both the portrait and Zhi Xinyi back and forth, and his brow furrowed.

After hearing Gu Beicheng’s words, Hu Lina felt that he was truly going too far, not even giving her a chance to correct her mistake. But no matter how resentful she was, she still did not want to divorce Gu Beicheng.

“Mom, let’s not give up our villa. I actually quite like living there,” Liu Yang suddenly said to his mother.

The clothes on Ye Bai’s back still had several tears in them, yet the wounds that had once bled on his back had actually healed without treatment. They had not even scabbed over; they had simply closed on their own, leaving only a few red streaks of blood.

Or like Xiao Sui, no one knew how he had done it, but with the strength of a sixth-rank cultivator he was able to command Wind Chasing. Yet he could not fully bring out Wind Chasing’s power, and could only use it as an ordinary star weapon.

“Master?” Butler Shi Fu truly had not expected his master, who was usually so calm and composed, to be so flustered now.

Before Ye Bai could even move to teach that fellow a lesson, the man had already fled like a rabbit that had seen a tiger, disappearing in an instant.

“Of course it is, big brother. I’ve been delivering food here for more than half a month, coming here every day!” The young man answered emphatically, nodding hard.

Just as he stepped into the teachers’ office, Yan Shengli abruptly shoved Xia Zhi. Fortunately, Xia Zhi had prepared himself in advance; after stumbling a few steps, he managed not to fall.

The knockout rounds of the National College Basketball League were held one after another without pause. As long as a team won on that day, it would have to continue the next day against yet another winning team, until the twenty-five teams advancing to the preliminaries had been decided.

Damn it! He says it with such righteous certainty! Never joking about money... that part is actually quite like me.

At present, the highest psychic skill available for exchange in the cycle is only this E-rank Psychic Shock.

If the formation cannot be broken, then there is no way to enter this ancient divine mountain, much less discover what fruit might be found here.

After Chen Fan finished another full round of the Six Meridian Divine Sword, his left hand gathered yin and yang energies together, forming dozens of ice spikes that shot toward Gaine in a torrential barrage, while the sword in his right hand was driven to the extreme. Faced with this almost overwhelming assault, Gaine finally instinctively drew Abyss Rainbow.
