Chapter 112: Such a Commotion

A practitioner at the level of a Ghost Immortal would be able to sense that something was wrong with Song En from quite a distance away.

"You lot keep a close watch down there. If there is any movement, report it to me immediately." Mo Xiu flapped his fleshy wings, whipping up a fierce gale. The yellow sand filled the sky, forming a dust storm that rolled away into the distance.

What they did not know was that Qingzhou City had fallen into complete chaos. Zhu Zhiyi’s sudden betrayal was entirely unexpected, and with no defenses in place, Chu Zhongtian’s forces moved through the city as if it were deserted, quickly seizing the main streets.

"You don't understand. My home is like a battlefield that could erupt at any moment; it’s so suffocating that I don't even want to go back," Zhang Xu said with a wry smile.

He tried his best to observe, but he could only make out blurred shadows. To him, the swaying of the tentacles of doom emerging from the system core remained completely indiscernible.

Wang Tai looked at these men, took a deep breath, straightened his posture, and saluted them. In the darkness of the night, a glimmer of light could be seen in his dark eyes.

But that sensation of touching the leaves just now... it was strange. Surely it couldn't have just been an illusion?

The two Hokage used their agile movements to dodge Naruto's chakra hands, their speed making it difficult for him to get a hold of them.

The Scarlet Cult collected life force by murdering people and hunting magical beasts, while he, in his true form, gathered it by the conventional means of harvesting materials from magical beasts.

"Haha, my Yanyan is truly passionate today." He Xianming felt flattered to receive this first proactive kiss from Qu Xiaoyan.

"Let's go..." This time, Huang Yu did not show excessive caution; he immediately summoned the Desolate Bell to envelop everyone before speaking.

"Perhaps I shouldn't go. And wouldn't sending a car be too much trouble? We can just take a taxi ourselves," Mother Ye declined, feeling embarrassed to impose on her old friend. Even though they hadn't seen each other for so many years, she couldn't keep letting others bear the burden.

Qiyun was well-versed in medicine. As soon as she caught the scent of musk, she sensed danger. She cautiously retreated a few steps, but three or four palace attendants stepped forward and seized her from both sides.

"Uncle Salang, do you hate Sister Honglian too? Otherwise, why would you help Sister Bisheng bully me?" Chujiu blinked her large eyes, her pitiful expression enough to break anyone's heart.

"Is the eighth floor too high? You don't think the price is too expensive, do you? It's fine. If you truly like this property and can put down a deposit today, I can give you a two percent discount!" Qian Jia said earnestly.

Led by A-Dong, our group returned to the barbecue place from that night. A-Dong ordered plenty of food, and we had initially wanted to call Zhang Yuhan and the others, but they said they had night study sessions, so they didn't come.

With another flick of his claw, he flung Wang Hui’s body away, causing it to crash into the ground and create a large crater.

Chu Ci had a mysterious identity, yet her sharp mind was always reassuring. Yan Liyou nodded, and just then, Wen Moshu stepped into the room, causing those nearby to consciously disperse.

"A contract? Don't worry, Dad will handle it for you," her father paused before saying with great confidence.

But for an emperor hovering on the brink of death, let alone three months, he would do anything for even a single second of continued life.

Seeing the situation escalating, Lin Dao ignored the risk of exposure, took out a formation-breaking disk, and leaped onto the city wall. Just as he was about to break through the array, the sound of a sword hummed behind him. Without looking back, Lin Dao swung his blood-stained scythe to strike behind him.

On the other side, Xuanyuan Wuji and Lu Wei felt their legs beginning to burst. Their expressions shifted between joy and sorrow until Xuanyuan Wuji finally sighed bitterly, retracted his legs, and wore a look of utter dejection.

Indeed, in terms of cultivation, Yun Chen’s opponent was by no means inferior. But regarding their weapons, Yun Chen’s Ten-Direction Nether Banner was more than a notch above the opponent’s Ghost Prison Nether Spear.

Because of this, when Mienie was blocked by the green goblin earlier, she knew she was doomed. However, the reality far exceeded her expectations; Luo Yi had actually risked his own life to save her.

Lin Chen was able to thwart the cursed evil spirit step by step by borrowing the aura of the Magic Cube and using his own powerful willpower to project intimidation, though in reality, it was merely a bluff.

"Go? Very well!" Bu Qingya withdrew her gaze and followed Feng Wumian, looking completely dispirited.

A "Title-holder" is a powerhouse who has successfully challenged the Tower of Despair to earn a title. A "Second-Awakening" powerhouse is, naturally, one who has undergone a second awakening. As for this level, it simply refers to high-level powerhouses.

Since Gao Feng was the Executive Vice Mayor, it was only natural for the newly appointed Director of the Finance Bureau, Luo Changhe, to report his work to him without the need for secrecy.

Though his body felt somewhat fatigued, Carles’s mood was just like the weather today—excellent! A problem that had been plaguing him for days had finally shown a glimmer of hope yesterday.

Li Shiyu turned, clearly struggling. Although she dodged Mu Xin’s first attack, she could feel her right arm going completely numb, making movement difficult.

Upon hearing this, the Black Dragon felt a surge of inexplicable palpitations, yet he did not believe that Yuan Hong currently possessed any means to deal with him.

When his gaze passed over Yi, his fear lessened, replaced by astonishment. Finally, his eyes settled on Xisa, and seeing his calm expression, he suddenly shouted for mercy, tears streaming down with his cries. "Spare me, North-Sisa!" Before anyone could ask, he poured out the entire story, terrified that if he were too slow, he would be ordered to his death.

Thirty thousand demon soldiers took the opportunity to invade the Jade Pool, setting fires and slaughtering immortals. The entire Jade Pool was filled with demonic cries and overflowing with dark energy; not a shred of immortal aura remained. This sacred place of the immortals could effectively be erased from history.

Shi Yue asked, "If that is the case, why must we enter the underground palace?" In truth, Shi Yue had been wondering for days whether they should go in. Forcing open an underground palace was already a major taboo in the Netherworld, and now they didn't even know why they were entering—simply because of words left behind by Chenxiang?

The temporary camp, which had been quite grand, had its outer giant stone blocks dismantled before they left. The Aujin clansmen, whose strength had grown significantly, were all mobilized to carry these stones on their backs.
