Chapter 61: You've Let a Wild Beast In There
The illusions surrounding Yu Xia vanished, and she found herself back in the original room.
The room was pitch black, with only a faint glow emanating from her outward.
Just as she thought the test was over, someone pushed open the door.
A beam of light filtered in, piercing a corner of the darkness.
At that moment, Yu Xia was sitting on the floor. Hearing the sound, she looked up and saw a tall figure standing in the doorway.
That should be a—
"You are all too generous. What virtue or ability do I, Zhou Wending, possess to become the master of the Jiuhua Sect?" Zhou Wending smiled. Though he spoke with modesty, his face wore a look of utter confidence, as if he believed the position of sect master belonged to no one else but him.
Caught off guard, Zhao Hao plunged entirely into the river. The water was ice-cold and bone-chilling, almost unbearable. Quickly pulling out a 15x scope, Zhao Hao scanned his surroundings, and upon spotting land in the distance, he swam toward it with all his might.
After pondering for a moment, Luo Xia decided the best course of action was to untangle Feng Shisan from himself while she was still fast asleep, and then get up and leave.
"Indeed, I do not have much interaction with the Jiang family, but I do have an acquaintance within it," Zhang Jingfan replied.
Hua Qianwu asked with curiosity. The three supreme elders of Kunlun existed almost exclusively in legends; let alone outsiders, very few Kunlun disciples had ever laid eyes on them. Consequently, the outside world had long suspected that Kunlun's supreme elders were merely putting up a bluff and had actually passed away long ago.
Meng Qingfeng had long since turned a deaf ear to his aversion and contempt for Di Leer, completely ignoring her without the slightest change in expression on his face.
Changing directions, he continued walking, and before long, he once again spotted that strange beast leisurely grazing on the grass.
He had already crushed dozens of top-grade spirit stones to replenish his spiritual energy, and had also purchased four third-grade spirit-gathering pills from the system to aid in gathering spiritual Qi.
Shi Tou wore a naive expression, his eyes filled with urgency, looking somewhat baffled as if he could not understand why Su Ming did not recognize him.
His hair was no longer meticulously styled, but fell in a messy, instant-noodle-like disarray. Those blue eyes, once adored by his entire family, were now clouded with the murkiness of alcohol and a coldness Harry had never seen before.
"What? He knows the Tiger-masked Man? Could it be that Takii Ichiro ordered the Tiger-masked Man to kill Banji Kazuo?" Kameyama said.
After taking a few bites, Zhang Zhuangyi was instantly amazed by the sweet juice inside the grape. Moreover, the grape had no seeds, and even the skin lacked the usual tart and astringent taste of ordinary grapes. Swallowing it whole without spitting out the skin, Zhang Zhuangyi devoured it directly.
It was as if a plank of wood had been pierced by nails as dense as a rainstorm. Once the deed was done, the nails departed, leaving the wood riddled with countless holes.
Inside the house, the smile on Xiao Heng's face gradually faded. It seemed he needed to have a serious talk with Wen Jiaren.
Su Yiqing clenched her fists tightly. She knew she could delay no longer; she had to go find Quan Shaochen and brief him on the situation here.
Ye Chen let out a cold snort, and instantly unleashed his Ancient God Body. At the same time, the eight heavenly eyes on his arm opened without reservation, and a powerful aura began to surge relentlessly upward.
At this point, they could no longer be called ice and fire pearls, but rather Yin-Yang pearls. The Yin-Yang pearls were now slowly rotating in his dantian, emitting Yin-Yang Qi that began to heal the injuries within his body.
Suddenly, the room plunged into darkness; the lights went out, and the entire house was swallowed by an abyss of blackness, so dark that one could barely see their own hand in front of their face.
However, this was no difficult task for the quartet known as the Marauders. Ever since their first day at school, they had been passionate about exploring the secrets of this castle, and navigating its complex corridors with agility was the very reason they had managed to avoid detention thus far.
