Chapter 1123: Silencing

More than ten li away, another mountain pass.

Around seven or eight bandits who ambushed travelers were burned to death.

Some had blackened chests, others had all their blood scorched dry, still others had their bodies reduced to charred carbon…

Mo Hua stood among the corpses, staring at his own pale, jade-like palms, unable to suppress a frown and sigh:

"How did I… lose control of my own hands?"

I swore not to take lives, yet less than half an hour passed, and here I was at this mountain.

As she pondered, a fierce killing intent surged from behind! A dangerous aura rushed toward her! Instinctively, she expanded her spiritual sense, locking onto the attacker—sharp steel needles!?

Although Tongtian had manifested Shen Gongbao, he could no longer calculate the whereabouts of Jiang Ziya.

The two of them had long been disciples of Tongtian, and in ancient times, the great calamity had been terrifyingly severe.

A week passed; she moved from a business hotel to a guesthouse, while constantly searching for rental information.

As soon as Wang Man'er carried the glass lantern out of the courtyard, Yan Yile pulled Yan Yishuang and Yan Yihuan over.

One reason was the sheer volume of trivial matters—there was no spare time to waste on such things; another, Jinling City enforced a citywide ban on fireworks—anyone wishing to set them off had to first report to municipal authorities.

"Tomorrow, I'll double the search teams, and raise the reward—by all means, I'll find that bastard in the shortest time possible!" Mo Xiangnan clenched his fist, his voice icy.

At the peak of Longshou Mountain stood a partially exposed super-defense fortress—the current headquarters of the Earth Alliance. Inside, Yang Qianqian and Lin Xuanner stared intently at the slowly rotating holographic Earth projection, their expressions equally cold.

Before the palm could land on Hui'er's face, her wrist was already gripped tightly in Hui'er's grasp.

Feng Lichuan was originally from another town, one far superior to Lin Mu Town; he had once possessed the strength of a Martial Master.

Clearly, she couldn't hold out much longer. Among all the Lords, her strength was the weakest. When it came time for the Lords, she would be the first target.

Once they had calmed their emotions, Wang Yu asked them about Cangtian Sect's news within the Demon Realm.

The power of Tianyu Sword, now imbued with the embryonic form of true intent, was no less formidable; when these two attacks collided, how could a mere third-rank mid-grade defensive array possibly hold?

Zhong Ming let them do as they pleased—after all, whatever they did helped the bird eggs. But he didn't believe they could make the bird hatch early.

They had prepared for a long time; as soon as the Underworld demigods entered Hell, they began plotting war against the Underworld. Yet the Underworld had always been wary of Hell, and though they amassed strength, it was only relative to the levels below five hundred.

The nameless warrior still wore a face of utter resolve, as if utterly contemptuous of his petty threat.

He barely suppressed the pain throbbing in his head, staring at the contract before him. Lord Mephistopheles wanted to refuse the pact—but Luo Jie's Xuanyuan Sword kept swaying before his eyes, drenching him in cold sweat.

After waiting a while, I and Mu En received another group—wealthy business magnates—then returned to the palace with Mu En.

"I…" Judging by his expression, Luo Dashan was still furious; Zhou Yunmei dared not speak further and retreated to a corner, silent.

The Southern Immortal Emperor didn't know what to say anymore. Wang Yu praised Sima Miaomeng—of course, as her father, he was pleased. But praise shouldn't be delivered like this! Her figure, her aura—it was outright lewd behavior.

Laughter erupted in the office building; some even clutched their stomachs. Everyone stopped working, staring at the two "preparing to fight" colleagues. With a boss like this, employees naturally felt at ease—so as long as they didn't overstep, no one worried about the boss being present, because the boss joined in the "craziness" too.
