Chapter 8

What is this strange thing? Song Yu picked up the sparkling ice from the ground and held it up to the sun.

After the cold wave, although the temperature remained frigid, the sun surprisingly appeared, lending a faint and deceptive warmth.

[Gratitude from the Lost: Because players Song Yu and Song Xiaohei showed generosity, the Lost offer the players their most precious treasures.]

Generosity?

Song Yu was puzzled and recalled the previous day.

After school in the afternoon, he had gone home with Fatty and Big Fang. During the last class, Zhu Gang and Sha He called to inform Xiao Fei.

“Boom!” A tremendous explosion, a gust of palm wind tearing through, whipping up sand and stones, assaulting the ears and eyes. The entire scene spiraled out of control. Even the two disguised eunuchs of the Sui Dynasty were not spared; struck by the palm wind, they were thrown over ten feet away.

Apart from Ma Yiyi, Ye Wudao also spotted a familiar face—Wen Xin—who was entering arm in arm with a man.

Among thousands of young warriors, the Demonic Ancestor had already reached the immortal realm, an unsurpassed powerhouse whose strength dominated the world, with no equal in sight! Especially after the disappearance of the Olympian gods, there was simply no one left who could challenge him.

Medi’s gaze was fixed intently on Aixi, her expression somewhat dazed, and then her cheeks flushed crimson.

An overwhelming pressure descended from the horizon like a storm. The High Priest and Chen Feng exchanged a glance, unwilling to allow the other to advance further. After all, many of the tribe’s elders and weaklings were present—not just the frail but those of lesser strength might not withstand such formidable oppression.

Su Wu, upon hearing about his family affairs, fell into deep contemplation. He recalled that the emperor had spoken with him for an entire hour, entrusting three tasks, one of which emphasized expanding Han influence in the Hu lands and understanding the Hu people’s situation.

Inside the factory, thick steel pipes bore rust, the red brick walls were mottled and weathered, flakes of red powder falling off, evoking a profound desolation.

Because of his startled shout, Lin Jiaxi inside the room also heard Siwan. Though he did not know the details, the mere mention of “Siwan” was enough to invigorate him.

“But, but…” Dr. Connors, with a vacant expression, approached the giant fish’s blood vessel. Without a ruler, he already estimated the thickness of the vessel walls by sight.

Zhou Yuanzhi then instructed Pang Xun, “Brother Pang, Xu and I plan to explore Shaolin by night. You lead the spear sect disciples to wait here. If we do not return by dawn, do not wait any longer—go straight to Jiangnan to urge my father to raise troops to rescue Shaolin.”

With resolve set, Pure Yinzi and the others naturally had no objections. They immediately joined forces! Dozens of Golden Body stage masters struck simultaneously, their power terrifying. Almost instantly, they pierced open a spatial channel ravaged by fierce winds! If not for Lu Fei having previously arranged a concealment formation nearby, the surrounding hundreds of miles would have been utterly destroyed.

Xu Chen knew she was serious; the house she helped them prepare was real, and guarding it was merely an excuse.

Lu Fei was shocked. Forgetting the quilt in his hands, he shoved Fa Hai aside and quickly leaned backward to dodge.

At this moment, cheers and applause erupted from the crowd. Several parents hurriedly gathered their children into their arms, soothing them softly. The villagers began to murmur among themselves—some shouting to return home rather than enter the city, others determined to go in and demand justice.

At that moment, I blinked and felt my eyelids heavy, requiring effort to lift, my mind dizzy. I closed my eyes and allowed myself to sleep, sensing that someone was dragging me along. It must have been Sun Qing and the others, moving me away to safety before sunrise so I wouldn’t be harmed.

The speaker was a finely dressed young gentleman. His loud voice and a drunken hiccup immediately drew much attention.
