Chapter 737: Plague Pill

Yuwen Bo explained: "The Ten Thousand Souls Banner's power far exceeds the Plague Pill; its failure earlier was due to the Divine Immortals of Shenzhou possessing great abilities, not because the banner is ineffective."

If they learn of the Plague Pill's existence, it will be equally difficult to unleash its full effect.

Moreover, the best time to spread plague through plague toxin is not during the bitter cold of winter.

Wait until spring, when temperatures rise—the plague toxin hides within warm, humid air, silent and unseen, killing the entire city. Now to release the plague...

These two work together with great fluency, fully mastering the interplay and counterplay of spellcraft—clearly not ordinary individuals.

Long ago, the Elf Empire designated a territory on the outer edge of the ancient ruins forest to the north, granting it to their vassal race, the Centaur Clan, and naming it "Takar Forest."

Soon after, the bandits were bound and nailed to stakes by Bevman's men, beaten until only a breath remained, awaiting death.

Ling Yunfeng now felt deep guilt—such a large tree hollow must have been inhabited by animals. Last night, he was too exhausted and too eager to absorb the toad's true qi, so he slept inside without a second thought, and failed to set any traps or defenses at the entrance, leading to this humiliating morning.

Fa Jie asked: "What do you mean, Master Daoist?" He thought inwardly: The one who injured your Wudang disciples was the Green Snake—why are you so eager to seize the White Snake?

In this village, fishing at night isn't considered theft—as long as you give the neighborhood watch captain a pack of cigarettes. Wang Er couldn't afford a whole pack, so he offered just one, merely as a token. Of course, the captain didn't need his cigarettes; seeing Wang Er had someone willing to marry him, he turned a blind eye.

Even Bai Zhen was the same—fierce as a tiger, yet powerless against Xue Qi, the fly. His frustration turned to rage, and the soul-force barrier enveloping Luofeng Pagoda slowly weakened.

However, because Dean Randolph was a rigid, powerful warrior who only understood demanding relentless training, he upheld the tradition that competition in youth fuels motivation; to maintain students' urgency, every high- and low-level dormitory must house at least one or more fellow students together.

The town's wealthy families departed one after another. The mayor, seeing Gail follow, assumed he came to discuss payment, so invited Gail to his home and summoned Akman to join them.

"This seal has a time limit, doesn't it? Could it have expired and thus failed?" Lu Ka's sensitivity to magic made this conclusion easy for him.

"I never thought of myself as your wife," Jiu said—the alcohol heavily affected Ye Li's nerves; many words she'd never spoken aloud now slipped out easily after drinking.

Everyone was now inside their homes—even Xuan Yuan Muqing hadn't left, since she had no class today and was idle, so naturally she wouldn't return to her boring dormitory.

"She's pregnant?" Qin Lang's expression showed utter shock, completely unexpected—not displeased, but bewildered, frozen in place.

"It seems so. Looks like I overthought it!" Wenren Yirou heard it clearly too, nodded in agreement, then turned and walked toward the door.

Otherwise, with Long Xingyu's face alone, no leader in Long Xing would dare hire him to work—though, of course, Long Xingyu has since changed his name; he now goes by Long Jian.

The several Elders had assumed their combined strength could at least hold their own against Shen Yi until his secret technique lost effect.

Ye Li fears thunderstorms—she couldn't say why, but she instinctively raised her hands to cover her ears; blood smeared across her face, and in the darkness, it looked horrifyingly vivid.

She knew little of the conditions in other worlds; the Creator, when fashioning these nine worlds, made them entirely independent, with no exchange of information between them. Without the Void-Walker's consciousness seeping through, she had no idea other distinct worlds even existed.
