Chapter 167

After a while, a dark, looming mountain came into view ahead, with faint flickering fires visible in the valley below.

Zhao Ti glanced at Zhu Zhu Chuyi beside him and asked, "Are there bandits in these mountains, robbers who've seized the peaks and declared themselves kings?"

Zhu Zhu Chuyi, as the master of the Baixuan Sect in Huaixi Haozhou, though his Wu Gong was mediocre, knew the local outlaw circles well, for the Baixuan Sect operated as a local faction that thrived on hospitality and cultivating connections.

He bowed in the saddle and said, "Your Highness,"

Mu Feng looked up at the sky; torches blazed, lanterns glowed brightly, voices roared, and the scene was deafeningly lively.

Besides Senior Brother Geng, Da Wei also came to assist me in this operation; he obtained investigation data on three coordinates over half a month ago.

The latter remark, too, was heard word for word by Zhang Yi; as for what he would do after hearing it, the big man's heart must have been in turmoil.

Qin Meng had already understood Crown Prince Dan's purpose in befriending him: to gain leverage over the Donghu King—this was indeed Yan's grand plan for a hundred years.

Because the Warwolf Army had suffered casualties, arrows rained from the sky with such density that no one dared raise their head, like a locust swarm sweeping across, and many had been struck down; the formation was clearly beginning to destabilize.

Wangu Shenjun let out a cold laugh, his silver right hand reaching out into empty air; a streak of black light flashed from his storage pouch, and in his palm appeared a black halberd over a zhang long, which he swung toward the charging giant stone statue.

Tianchen's divine sense remained alert behind him; seeing this, he grew agitated and immediately turned his divine sense inward, urging sharply.

Tong Wei said, "No trouble at all, farewell." After seeing Tong Wei off, Leng Wuwei found the crowd had dispersed; at that moment, the two Young Masters who had caused trouble at Fuju Restaurant approached.

Zhao Hao now openly claimed he could plant thirty thousand sweet potatoes, directly trampling on the heads of Su Jiewang and Chen Jiewang—this was a grave offense.

Liao Kai said, "You needn't worry; I'll protect you." Though he spoke thus, he still withdrew a short dagger from his boot; the blade was only a few inches long, yet razor-sharp.

Yet, when Wen Ci's gentle, Bai Xi face wore this hairstyle, it gave the impression of a noble gentleman stepped straight out of a manga.

Nan Xun watched Jiang Xiubai's expression freeze instantly; his heart panicked, but his face remained innocent.

You must understand that the Bai family's bodyguards are meticulously selected and possess formidable combat prowess; how could they possibly be knocked to the ground in an instant?

"Just watch me play—you'll learn after seeing it a few times." Friend P dropped the dice into the cup and called for a new round.

As Nan Xun made this gesture, Jiang Xiubai slightly narrowed his eyes; the tear mole beneath his eye made his expression even more enigmatic.

This intoxicating sensation brought the Five Yuan Grand Priest greater bliss than any culinary delight; even his perpetually pale face, long shrouded in the clouds of illness, now flushed faintly with a touch of rosy vitality.

Chu Qing heard this, and hearing Yi Dingjia's sophistry, hurled the divination cylinder at him—it struck him squarely. "Old fraud, you're really… turning the tables! If I don't beat you until you reveal your true form today, I'll let you get away with your stubborn mouth!" Saying this, she rolled up her sleeves, ready to strike—but Feng Shuzhu laughed and stopped her.

While Ren Jie was still troubled, a middle-aged man with an unusual aura approached him. He studied the man before him and felt that if this person didn't know Han Yichen, then no one in the village would.

"Damn it, I'll flay you alive!" Rising from the ground, Lin Tian roared and punched toward Ning Luo.

The talisman spun and twirled on the water's surface, then sank after several seconds. Yet Ali waited on the shore for a long time without any movement, frowned, walked to the water's edge, and stared at her reflection in the water.
