Volume 1, Chapter 61: On Whether a Breeding Boar or Zuo Yongbang Has Higher Efficiency

"Sister Yue'er, you are not allowed to lie!" Xiaoyan's worries vanished upon hearing this, and she said with a bright smile.

Wan Guiyi laughed out loud. "Then the bet is on! Let's sit back and watch how the battle unfolds!" In truth, Wan Guiyi wasn't entirely certain who would win. Meng Xingchen possessed many secrets, but Long Shaoren had inherited the Yellow Springs Sword Technique, making the outcome difficult to predict.

During this period, her elder brother had mentioned Liu Yong to her many times, and she had begun to harbor vague suspicions. Although she felt reluctant in her heart, no matter how headstrong she might be, she could ultimately not defy her parents' orders.

Alchemists could be seen everywhere here; they were naturally the most esteemed figures in this place. Even a first-tier alchemist was someone you would not dare to provoke casually, as one could never be certain if they had a fifth-tier alchemist backing them up.

In just a single sentence, she managed to display modesty while getting straight to the point, subtly implying a claim to superiority. If Lady Qiao were present, she would realize that her own sharp wits and maneuvers were still rather shallow by comparison.

Although the main event of the day was visiting the water park, they weren't heading out first thing in the morning; the afternoon was designated for the water park, while the morning had a different itinerary lined up.

Upon hearing that An Ruixiang and his subordinates had been punished because of his own reckless gamble, An Ruiqi was consumed by self-reproach. He hastily struggled to sit up in bed to plead for them, but his arms lacked any strength. Having propped himself up slightly, he collapsed heavily back onto the mattress with a dull thud.

The moment Jun Yao stepped out of the car, he saw several boys running out after him from the school. He recognized the leader—it was Han Yingjun, the taekwondo coach from the Korean club whom he had disciplined previously.

"What? Trying to silence us?" Pang Zhihu sneered. Although the Bai family had not directly intervened, everyone knew their presence was merely to guard against sudden changes. The moment the Liang family began their massacre of the Pang family, the Bai family would undoubtedly step in to assist the Liang family.

Aside from a small number of residents who traveled to Zhongzhou and the interior to purchase goods, the people of Rock Town practically never left the settlement.

Tens of thousands of imperial tent troops accompanied the Great Khitan Emperor Yelü Longxu and high-ranking officials on a grand hunt in the royal preserves, where wild boars and wolves dashed frantically through the mountains and forests. Exuberant knights galloped wildly on horseback, driving hunting dogs and leopards, wantonly shooting down ferocious tigers and elks in the hills.

Ye Han did not speak immediately. He suddenly paced toward the window, casually pulled back the curtains, opened the window, and pointed to the sky outside. The sky had already grown bright, but aside from the newly risen sun, there was another brilliant radiance. That light was drawing closer and closer, nearly eclipsing the brilliance of the sun itself.

Yet the shower had been running for ages—why on earth did the young woman in the bathroom show no sign of coming out?

Upon hearing this, Hanyue rolled her eyes in exasperation and said to Hanye, "Let's go." Though her words suggested leaving, her posture didn't show the slightest intention of moving an inch; instead, she cast a guarded, wary gaze toward the wild dog trio.

What kind of absurd situation was this? Had he choked or suffocated to death from consuming a single Emperor Spirit Stone? If word got out, wouldn't it become the ultimate joke, ridiculed by the entire world?

Guided by the faint light of a flint lighter, the three of them dimly made out that this stone chamber had been built in a circular shape with a dome ceiling. In the center of the massive stone chamber stood an enormously huge stone coffin, and there were also side chambers on both the eastern and western sides of the main room.

At this moment, Master Fuji's "Asura Palm Technique," driven by the "Marrow Washing Scripture," possessed power that had grown several notches compared to his duel with the Emei Sect leader Situ Xuanyin. Yet, it still failed to block the ultimate circular offensive of Yang Yunhan's "Heaven-Covering Stance."

Previously, everyone in the Tianyan Sect had concluded that Sima Haoran had betrayed the faction. Coupled with the fact that he hadn't returned to the sect for so many days, they became even more certain that he was the mastermind behind it all.

The villagers were naturally clueless about Ding Zhaokun's rash decision, but accustomed as they were to obedience, not a single one of them dared to voice any objection.

Possessing a token did not mean one was guaranteed to acquire a spirit pet. The token was at best equivalent to a key—a key to the gates of the Spirit Beast Paradise, granting merely the opportunity to come into contact with the spirit beasts within, and nothing more.

"Brother Hao, through those explosive flashes of fire, we can see that the 7th Army's troops have been retreating into our city; they haven't pulled back!" a staff officer said, hurrying to Hu Hao's side.

Lin Qinghou embraced Lin Qingwan with his left arm and Zhang Hanyun with his right. With a ripple of spatial energy, they vanished on the spot, accompanied by the disappearance of the big tiger.

News that RNG and CG would merge into a single entity after the conclusion of the Spring Split instantly exploded across the internet, even claiming the third spot on Baidu's trending search list. It was undeniable that as esports grew increasingly popular, the attention it received from mainstream media was also becoming greater by the day.

"A child like him isn't inherently malicious, but if he fails to control himself, he'll definitely suffer a massive setback in the future because of this temperament. I just don't want any mishaps to happen while passing through the Insect Mound," Xuan'er said.

"What is there to fear? Rebel! Hmph! If they want to talk, let them talk! I've got nothing here to begin with, and I still have to figure out how to expand my strategic depth. Has any one of them ever considered my position? They hand me the title of full general and tie me down with a bit of authorized establishment, expecting me to obey their every command in everything?"

When he learned of his father's fatal car accident during the final match, he had completely broken down, leading to various hallucinations that ultimately brought an end to his reign as a four-time Destiny champion. As for why someone within the organization chose to break the news to him at that exact moment, regardless of their motives, Yang Liuge did not hold it against him.

In terms of brute strength, he was definitely no match for Xiao Ye. The only advantage he could exploit in this battle was Xiao Ye's tendency to underestimate his opponent.

Wang Fan poured 6,500 points into his Extraordinary Agility attribute, elevating it as well to thirty points.

"What can this be used for?" Although Li Shihou didn't understand such things, seeing the Sword Dancer's excited expression told him just how important this item was.

Before long, a black-and-white distinct Yin-Yang sword array gradually took shape in the center of the quiet room under the joint setup of Xiao Ye and Cang.
