Chapter 446: The Alliance Proposal and the Value of Unification

“Spirit stones are the foundation of arrays?” In the grand hall of Tian Gong Island in the Jiushan Realm, Zhang Shijie’s expression shifted from sudden understanding to startled doubt.

Not just her—Xie Qingxue beside her also wore a look of bewildered confusion.

The hall held few people—only Zhang Shijie and Xie Qingxue.

The reward from Hao Ri Mountain had not gone unnoticed by the Jiushan Sect; even Huang Yu and Xiao Yuying had gone outside to guard Jiushan disciples, guarding against ambushes by Hao Ri Mountain’s rogue Nascent Soul cultivators.

“Didn’t Miss Xie know about this?”

When they struck tree trunks, they did not stick like ordinary crossbows—they pierced straight through, flying onward to the next trunk. After piercing three large trees in succession, they finally stopped.

“Poisoned?” Naruto turned his head and saw the man with purple lips and no sign of life.

Fang Jing let out a pig-like scream; his legs, battered repeatedly, twisted and deformed, violating human physiology.

A plain-looking man lay on the bed, staring blankly at the ceiling, muttering to himself.

Moreover, the eunuchs’ actions were all out in the open—crude, blunt, and easy to expose with evidence.

But Ba Song’s nature was like a venomous beauty—she immediately struck hard, casting a spell to incite the parasites into frenzy, planning to slowly torture her opponent to death, only to discover that the junior she assumed was far away in Huaxia had already cast a spell against her from a thousand li distant.

In that instant, she saw the eerie Zhang Qi before her, the limbless ghost beside her, and the beggar ghost approaching from the hall’s entrance.

Mu Yu entered the underground chamber, glanced at the two who had entered a state of self-forgetfulness, did not disturb them, and simply sat in a corner—then suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood, her face turning pale.

“Nothing. It’s just the aftereffect of the Nine-Tails’ spiritual energy. I’ll be fine after a rest.” Kakashi had deeply experienced the rage, hatred, and evil within the Nine-Tails’ spiritual energy—he couldn’t imagine how Naruto managed to remain completely unaffected by these negative emotions.

After speaking, Su Yu’s gaze swept the room, pausing slightly as it passed Xue Hai, then withdrawing.

Along with buying this bottle of wine, the mall also gave away the recipe—perfect timing! Fa Nan needed it exactly.

Even when clothes got dirty, Li Ye merely looked at them with doting affection—after all, this was a child’s nature.

Seeing Ying finally return to the main quest, Fa Nan crossed her arms and said sternly.

Upon hearing Gou Dan’s words, Zhao Laopo’s previously fiery tone immediately softened.

Upon entering, a magnificent, elegant black evening gown, exuding a touch of dominance, lay placed right in the center of the shop.

Yang Mi wore sportswear and a baseball cap with the brim pulled low—clearly her casual attire as a Beijing actress.

These people before you are all riffraff—the more polite you are, the more they look down on you.

But the taste is truly good; taking it home for the kids and the grandfather will surely make them all ecstatic.

Lin’s mother glanced at Jiang Wanwan’s calm face, thinking she was suppressing anger—after all, finding a suitable house had been truly difficult.

Though she outwardly obeyed Director Ba’s arrangements, inwardly she held no grudge against Yue An and the others; instead, she felt deep gratitude, for these guests were heroes of the tribe, having rendered great service.

It became nine—attacking from front, back, left, right, above, and below—blocking became pointless.

They had shared life and death with the teleportation array; even during last night’s dire moment, they refused to aid the residents.

“I’m hungry!” Cheng Lingzhi nearly growled, and as if to underscore her words, her stomach growled loudly.

The letter contained nothing but a large smiling face—mocking Ye Buluo and Xia Hou Yinxue. Xia Hou Yinxue was already furious; how could he endure this now? He tore the letter to shreds on the spot!

Rising early wasn’t just to secure a good spot—more importantly, new tender branches and leaves aged every minute, visibly so.

Situ Haoyu reached up and stroked her hair—Duolin’s taste was indeed excellent; this hairstyle suited Cheng Lingzhi perfectly.

Playing chess truly passed the long, boring night; before they knew it, they faintly heard the sound of the fifth watch drum.

At this moment, Qin Zheng, while organizing the world’s laws, used the world-transcending tribulation to accelerate the fusion of the three worlds.

“You owe me nothing—I owe you. But I swear by my honor: from now on, my family will pose no threat to you.” Su Ran spoke with solemn sincerity.

That is, the holy artifact’s activation originally targeted the fish-people, but under the Blind God Church’s manipulation, it will be altered to target the humans here.

As she walked and observed, the tunnel ended ahead into a broad area, and brightness returned once more.

But with a series of imperial bloodline disappearances now occurring in the capital, this matter had transformed from a simple conspiracy into a supernatural event.

“Ming Feng’s words strike deep with me. What then of Li Niu Liu?” Sun Chuanting paused, then asked.

This top-tier warrior did not succumb to despair; he retained a fierce fighting will, sharply contrasting with other warriors.

Su Ran struggled to open her eyes. At first, her vision was blurred; gradually, Fu Yunzeng’s handsome, noble face came into view.

The Bronze-level Independent Lord Core can split ninety times, yielding nine Iron-level Lord Cores and eighty-one Whiteboard-level Lord Cores.

Previously, Di Chuan had still held hope for his father—but now, Di Chuan had completely lost faith in him.

Having personally experienced Ji Yu’s power, he understood Ji Yu’s terror—he knew Mu Feng and the others were in for a terrible beating.

Shen Xue answered absentmindedly, turning to watch the acrobatics, yet still glancing back occasionally at the Arctic fox.

As Chen Tao and his poison-arrow attendants advanced, Lan Mo’s figure flickered slightly: “I’d rather die than let you have your way.” Her eyes, cold as ice water, were her final gaze upon the beast.

Perhaps this fellow’s aura was simply too overwhelming—the spectators surrounding the arena all held their breath, gazing up at the giant like a tower, their eyes filled with instinctive awe.

“Fine, then today I’ll drink two cups with Boss Sun, hey!” Chen Tian raised his cup with a smile, as if chatting and dining with a close friend.

At this moment, within this sea of clouds, I could almost sense countless powerful beings from the demonic realm slowly emerging from all around.

Sitting there, I said nothing, holding my son, who lay in my arms, staring at Shangguan Xier—his large eyes seemed to flicker with doubt.

This is a matter of attitude. Stanković knew Li Ang’s dominance—he did not wish to provoke him.

High pressing is a tactic to curb the opponent’s offense—overall, it remains a defensive strategy. In the past, against the formidable rival Barceloneta, Xihong Athletic’s adoption of this tactic to contain the opponent and prevent goals was appropriate.
