Chapter 535: Living Ocean of Life

As soon as they entered the Black Zone, the fleet encountered a warp storm and veered off its planned course, a heavy blow to morale.

Know that this is the unknown Black Zone, beyond the reach of the Astronomican's light, caught in a warp storm and thrown off course—no one knows what will happen next.

More importantly, in this Black Zone where the God-Emperor cannot protect them, no one can guarantee the fleet will ever find its intended course again.

“It was this thing that deceived your uncle Ye Tianyou, luring him into the Sparrow Inn—so even if you see it again, you can’t fully trust its words,” Dong Muya couldn’t help but remind him.

The target locked by the Corpse Soldiers was another Ningxuan Realm martial artist, but now countless ferocious corpses surrounded him, and above, a powerful Corpse Soldier descended—despite his battle-hardened experience, the Ningxuan martial artist was momentarily panicked.

Chen Kuang suddenly grunted, a trickle of blood dripping from his lip; his Great Calamity was not yet over, the Yin-Yang Laws still raged within him, and if this continued, he would soon be worn down and erased by the Laws.

“Why didn’t she tell her parents?!” Ran Mingzhu’s first thought was that such a matter should be discussed with parents immediately, not cursed on some unreliable forum.

They all knew Tang Huainan was no merchant—he’d already done well just to keep the company from collapsing, and this time his recklessness had landed him exactly where he was.

The arrow, once loosed, left a faint pink-gold glow in the air—the gold came from Ye Tianyou’s spiritual power, the pink from Xia Qiu’s residual energy infused into the arrow.

The remnants of the Red-Eared Demon Spirits in the Wang Palace’s front hall and main hall had all been purged by He Yin and his son He Ye’s men; now he stood with the demon spirit warriors outside the Fotu Hall, awaiting the next orders from the Demon King’s young fox and his companions.

But they all heard his words clearly, and for a moment thought: these two were truly matched—both equally reckless and uncouth.

From the darkness came a clattering, rising and falling—everyone knew this was the sound of the Xuan Beasts’ prison being fully opened.

After washing up, her first question was whether Liu Dongxing had returned; learning he had not, she grew anxious and sent word to Shu Ping to scout near the Kang Prince’s mansion and report any news immediately.

They looked on as a massive star emerged from the temporal chaos, spanning the void.

“Hah, Xuande, don’t embarrass me,” Li Yi said aloud, though inwardly he was delighted.

Liu Buchan’s Dingyuan and Jingyuan ships lingered far out at sea, ready to cover Zhang Yi’s retreat at any moment—but Yuan Shikai was no fool.

“Hmph, are you going to turn on me over a dead man?” Li Cui stared at Guo Si, baffled.

“Oh come on, don’t think your telepathy hides anything from me—my ears are sharp, you know~” Lin Feng grinned, and his words sent another shiver through those around him.

Di Yunxiao pushed aside the freezing ice crystals crushing him; a smug expression surfaced on his grotesque face—his previous sword strike had nearly matched half the power of a Dao Lord’s full-force blow.

“Sorry, I only give this photo to my boyfriend!” Yan Yu smiled apologetically at Liu Qi, then turned to me—with the air of someone preparing to settle accounts.

But everyone knew he was somewhere nearby, waiting to deliver a fatal strike against Lin Feng.

After securing the carriage doors and windows, Zhu Niang stripped Qing Luan of her outer garments, replacing every layer with clothes brought from the Princess’s mansion.
