27. Taking the Initiative to Reveal One's Identity

Wu Yong was speechless. This person seemed to have a habit of wandering off topic whenever he spoke. They had been discussing the wager, yet before he had even finished his next sentence, he had somehow veered into talk of the martial world, leaving everyone utterly bewildered.

“I read the previous case files. Since the murderer is so desperate to prove himself, something must have happened to him recently. The person we’re looking for must have suffered a major setback at work.” Kou Lei gave his opinion as he studied the files.

The entire coverage area of Island City across the North China Plain, even the surrounding regions! Relatively speaking, the nearby experts would have more than enough time to rush to the volcano in Iron County. With so many masters gathering there, it would be a rare grand event. Perhaps they would even witness many formidable experts—such as the various masters on the popularity rankings.

“Me too. It’s terrifying. I can’t believe there are actually people who worship things like that,” Li Xin said, her face filled with horror.

“Ma’am, may I ask if Wang Chuntian lives here?” Wu Yong asked a woman who was washing clothes in the sunlight.

“The Demon City headquarters is located in the Endless Icefield. I happened to overhear an envoy from the Demon City mention it once, but I have no idea where exactly it is,” Qiu Dan said.

Beneath the clothing was a layer of fiery-red armor! The fiery-red armor had a large hole in the chest as well.

“I offended Big Brother and said some things I shouldn’t have…” Wu Yong said dejectedly.

“I want to see him.” Zhang Zhiguo no longer bothered arguing with Zhang Hanbin. Only after seeing Kou Lei did he learn what had actually happened.

He did not mention the money at all. Clearly, these spirit stones had been “gifted” free of charge. Of course, compared with Feng Yi’s life, this small amount of spirit stones meant nothing to him.

Although Ning Hao was not a paragon of virtue, he would never forget those who had once helped him.

In the end, Shen Ting remained at Cloudmist Mountain. Though unwilling, he had never been able to defy Shi Mu’s decision.

The Absolute Severance spear pierced through Lie Xiong’s right palm, and the blood on its tip gradually faded away amid the purple-black spiritual energy.

Li Shimin watched Shi Shuo’s retreating figure, his fists clenched tightly. He had discovered that Shi Shuo could be very stubborn at times, but he had his own methods.

Thinking of this, Jiang Ning let out a heavy sigh inwardly. Never mind. They could see what happened later. If there really was no way to heal him like this, they would think of another solution.

Qianchi’s mouth fell open. He knew that Shi Shuo was no ordinary person, especially that sleeve of his. How heavy could a brick possibly be?

Under everyone’s tense gaze, Mu Ze came behind Lang Yuhai. With both hands, he tapped, poked, slapped, and pressed in turn, while guiding Lang Yuhai to circulate his cultivation technique.

Su Tong understood instantly. He turned Yan Jin’s face toward him. Just as Yan Jin closed his eyes, ready to enjoy the feast Su Tong was about to offer, Su Tong suddenly sank his teeth into his neck.

Fang Huai looked at Luo Yang, whose entire body was covered in blood, and her heart clenched. For the first time, she wondered whether she could have helped if only she had cultivated diligently, instead of hiding in the shadows and relying solely on others for protection.

When Mu Qing appeared at his side, he decided that he would no longer regard Shi Shuo as his goal, nor imitate everything he did.

The old eunuch’s pupils contracted involuntarily, and his face revealed an unprecedented gravity…

At this thought, he raised his palm high once more and formed an extremely strange-looking gesture.

Having a younger sister like that was enough to drive anyone to despair. There was an old saying: you miss your family after being apart for too long, but grow annoyed with them after staying together too long. He had never really understood it before, but now he had experienced it firsthand.

That was precisely why Wang Zhen could not understand it. Even those two useless fools, Da Han and Wu Qidong, had received a combat rating of F-plus. How could Oliana, whose body was far stronger than theirs, possibly have such a low level?

Compared with true masters at the pinnacle, his archery was certainly nothing special. Among amateur players, however, he was absolutely first-rate.

Before he could react, Song Xiao’e greeted Yun Yun, then waved her hand and walked away.

A faint arc of light swept out with a single slash, wantonly shattering the so-called Glacial Radiance. No matter how much came attacking, it was destroyed in equal measure.

Just like Didi ride-hailing, which had only become popular in the past two years. It was not until the company acquired Uber China, secured dominance, and established a monopoly that it dared disregard its customers’ feelings and use all sorts of methods to amass wealth with abandon.

After becoming familiar with the sensation, he tried to break free of it, only to discover that he could not wake up.

Terror grew wildly within me. This was far too astonishing—how could living elves simply disappear like that? It was only when the darkness completely swallowed them that I came back to my senses. In that oppressive darkness, even breathing became agonizingly difficult. Alone and utterly desolate, I understood in an instant.

Only when the sun had completely disappeared into the clouds did the surroundings return to their earlier commotion, with everyone beginning to discuss what had just happened.

He and Dongfang Qing had only themselves to blame. Whom else could they fault? Damn it, it was truly strange. For the past two months, I had practically been coming over every night and having my way with her three or four times. How could she still not be pregnant?

At that moment, the empty void, which had contained nothing, seemed to be torn open. The black-clad man from earlier stepped out of it.

Suddenly feeling hungry, I took out some food and began to eat. I had to stay calm. I had to let the enemy hiding in the darkness see that I was not afraid of the dark. Only then would they become frightened.

Further ahead, there was nothing but darkness spreading across the heavens and the earth. Unwilling to fall into a helpless predicament, Jindong could only retreat.

Hades clearly did not take the strongest Sailor Justin or the Radiant Mantis Incalos seriously. He crooked a finger, signaling them to attack together.

“Stop her! Don’t let her go!” I felt a vague sense of dread and rushed forward to seize Muse. Everyone swarmed over and held back the dazed Muse. I looked around, but apart from us, there was not another person in sight. The place was so empty there was not even a hair to be seen. How could her brother Yerimes possibly be here? Had Muse been possessed!?
