Chapter 66: Creepy Will-o'-the-Wisps

Zhao Pu paused for a moment, then smiled and said, "Sister, have you also heard about the Qixi Festival garden stroll?"

Shen Jifeng nodded, "I went to see Fourth Aunt today, and she mentioned it. Why didn't you tell me?"

Zhao Pu sat down beside Shen Jifeng, leaning his head against the veranda pillar. Having spent the entire day at the Court of Judicial Review, his neck felt nearly stiff.

"You've never liked attending banquets and literary gatherings, and besides, the silver mine cannot do without you, so I took the liberty of not mentioning it. What? Does my sister want to take a look at the eligible young talents as well?"

Tong Xinlan was not one to fight an unprepared battle. She waved her hand, and Song Hui, who had been waiting outside, walked in.

At night, Gu Biluo ordered everyone to pitch their tents directly on the summit. Her purpose in doing so was to give the new recruits early training in setting up camp. From the way she arranged the camp, it was evident that she was also well-versed in military strategy.

However, the space inside the cave was shattering continuously. The others no longer dared to contend for the black insects and fled in all directions.

Normally, this place was practically devoid of human presence. Any passing cultivators would cautiously give it a wide berth, avoiding it as if it were venomous snakes and scorpions.

These people were truly attempting to trick Ling Xinlan into letting them sell her off while she still helped them count the money, taking advantage while acting innocent. Tong Xinlan couldn't be bothered to deal with Zhu Sihan.

Yet, Lin Xuan maintained a calm expression, facing the incoming torrents of starlight power with serene indifference.

He was already ravenously hungry; if given an ox, he would have wished to devour it in one go. Thus, he nodded repeatedly and followed the old lady into the dining room.

With a flash of golden light, the tiger demon advanced toward the light barrier once again. This time, the journey was smooth, with no further obstructions. It stopped before the light barrier. A stream of golden light struck out from the talisman, hitting Ji Xuan squarely. Struck by the golden light, Ji Xuan instantly collapsed to the ground. However, the golden light of the talisman did not disperse, continuously enclosing both Ji Xuan and the tiger demon from start to finish.

Fruits of a deep, intense black color rested upon a jade plate, radiating ripples of deathly aura.

Mo Qilin laughed heartily, and an endless fog of pitch-black darkness suddenly surged from within his body. At the same time, flipping his palm, he summoned a life-claiming thunder hammer. As he brandished it, the power of thunder rolled forth, surging toward Gongsun Muyang's soul realm like a river flowing into the sea.

Luo Chen was speechless. He was indeed curious about them, but he wasn't acting like some debauched scoundrel as she described!

Just as Xiao Qiang sighed and intended to leave North Sea University first, his cell phone suddenly rang. Pulling it out, he saw it was an unfamiliar number. After a moment of hesitation, he answered it.

Furthermore, the methods of using special jades to imprison demonic seeds were precisely what Primordial Lord of Heaven and the others later discovered by accident—that the items they refined could not only assist cultivation and slightly resist demonic thoughts, but could even imprison demonic seeds and souls.

The Heavenly Fire Battle Body and Heavenly Fire Battle Fist were simultaneously elevated to the tenth-layer peak realm, while the Heavenly Fire Seal and Heavenly Fire Armor were barely elevated to the tenth-layer late stage.

Bai Xue paid him no mind, instead walking toward her own room. Inside her quarters, she recalled the battle against Luo Chen. This seemingly mundane combat had benefited her immensely. Feeling her slight improvement, her expression shifted slightly, and she wondered inwardly in astonishment, "What is going on?"

"Then do you know... the person I like... who it is?" Su Wen abruptly raised her head, her beautiful eyes filled with unwavering determination as she stared at Xiao Qiang, as though she intended to melt him away completely with her gaze.

He had been unable to fall asleep all night. Though he forced his eyes shut, sleep refused to come. A tide of emotions surged up, leaving him momentarily flustered and at a loss. He had never been a sentimental person, and he had no idea what was happening to him.

Though Han Xiaowu had never patronized the "Tuhao Gold" and the Princely Mansion, he had passed by their entrances several times and even heard of them long ago—they were the two most high-end hotels in Anhai. Especially the Golden Brick Hotel, jokingly dubbed "Tuhao Gold," which could be considered a landmark of Anhai. Seeing the two of them bantering back and forth, Han Xiaowu simply smiled without a word.
