Chapter 992: The Death of Lu Yang
High above the heavens, the master and disciple held their breath, swords drawn in a standoff. The powerful aura made the world fall silent.
The two strongest sword cultivators of the current age clashed; in the blink of an eye, they exchanged thousands of moves. A moment of distraction would decide the victor.
As the Eldest Senior Sister’s voice faded, Bu Yu Daoist looked at Lu Yang with gratification. So, his little disciple had grown this much when he wasn't looking.
Very well, it was time to let go.
"I have thought about it carefully, since I..."
Mo Siran could not move for a long time. She thought she was dreaming and hurriedly reached out to pinch her own face.
Turning back to Lu Ren, it was evident that the strategy he had set to attract the attention of the feudal lords was quite successful. Next, Lu Ren would have to curry favor with Sun Quan. A gift list was presented before Sun Quan, who was satisfied but did not pay much mind to it.
Professor Sun Meiting taught: "It is very normal for student Li Yuanyuan to feel this sense of frustration. Similar things happen often in life."
However, upon closer thought, Lu Ren was more inclined to believe that Cao Cao had two meanings in sending Liu Ye to Yizhou.
But then again, Lu Ren truly did not expect Emperor Xian, Liu Xie, to hold such an attitude regarding the restoration of the nation. This greatly surprised Lu Ren, to the point that the arguments he had prepared before coming could not be spoken.
Zou Zhui’s internal sword qi was severely depleted, so he simply stopped using it and picked up a giant blade dropped by a dead demon.
But what good would it do to retreat to the pier? Now that there were no ships, no one could leave this place.
Thus, although Zou Zhui attended the banquet, he was no different from Shi Guan Xiong and the other Shi Guan family disciples, eating and drinking everywhere, feeling incredibly relaxed. By contrast, the high-ranking members of the Shi Guan family, such as Shi Guan Yunxing, had to stay busy, wearing smiles at all times to welcome the arriving guests.
She realized with some helplessness that her gaze always drifted toward that direction inadvertently.
Qiao Wu and Qiao Hua exchanged glances and continued to observe the reaction of the alien insect after its death. When they looked around and found pools of green stains on the trees and soil, they confirmed this idea. As for whether it was nourishment or corruption, they would have to wait for future experiments.
Such profound martial arts were unheard of to them; the powerful sensation made them feel a sense of suffocation.
Hearing Aier’s words, Dimo and Grote immediately put down their things and left. The meticulous Dimo closed the door from the outside, leaving space for Aier and Iron Hat Pande.
Xin Su Yiren looked at Sun Qingmu in a dilemma. Brother Sun clearly did not want to make things difficult for Princess Qianye, but Su Yi had the grace of protecting him, and he... Xin Su Yiren swayed, at a loss, feeling that whatever he said would be wrong.
For a moment, Hu Menglin’s head was a mess. Could it be that there were still corpses of Underworld powerhouses here that hadn't been discovered?
Lu Tianxing chatted with Angel for a while longer. Only after Abby brought the clothes over did he tidy himself up, confirm there were no traces left on him, and then walk out of the washroom.
Su Yi and Shen Fei were searching for the Crown Prince in the hall. After bypassing one decadent figure after another, their gazes finally fixed on the two people in the "Deep Affection" room on the third floor.
Ning Fan also breathed a slight sigh of relief. In three months, as long as the Eighteen Sons could practice their footwork and movement techniques well, it would be enough to meet Li Liang’s original requirements. If they could reach his standards ahead of time, he would naturally teach them more.
He had heard of the assessment items of the Tai Bai Sword Palace before, so he deduced that the previous move was just a test of knowledge, which was why he didn't run away.
This time, the consciousness of the Old Ancestor was incredibly clear. He knew he was immersed in a hallucination, as if he had returned to that cave on Mount Emei. But once he opened his eyes, these illusions would disappear.
This was also specifically requested by Xia Jin; too high was not good either, so he might as well just do a trash task.
