One Hundred: The Underground Bazaar
The mutant pig seemed to have come prepared and paid no heed at all to the tree’s warning, answering only with a few low growls.
Old Mo’s face darkened. His fists clenched hard, his heart riddled with wounds, aching so much that he did not even want to speak.
“Senior Brother, I’ve finished introducing everything here. Please rest assured and cultivate here. I’ll take my leave for now!” The disciple in charge of guiding him hurriedly cupped his hands; he was only an outer disciple himself.
Besides, the valley was huge, occupying nearly half the journey to the Ice Palace. Ling Tian was unwilling to waste any more teleportation talismans, so he simply decided to walk the rest of the way.
At that moment, Zhou Yun did not think much of it at all. With a single command, he led the others straight toward the nearest window and leapt out. It seemed almost like instinct; he only felt that if they stayed there any longer, it would be dangerously bad.
The emperor’s smile faded, and he looked at Lu Yu with solemn gravity. One could say that he had never been this serious when facing Lu Yu.
“The Sacred Flame Hall! We must wipe out the Sacred Flame Hall! It has brought disaster upon the martial world. Both Mount Wudang and the various sects have suffered under it. Only by eliminating the Sacred Flame Hall can peace return to the world of martial arts!” said the man in brownish robes.
In truth, Lu Lu was still by the pool teasing the crimson-water carp. Hearing of any excitement, she would be the first to come, and the reason she reacted so strongly to Lu Yu’s wastefulness was simply this: she was avoiding something.
The underground casino of old was naturally gone. In its place now stood a three-story department store.
Still, they were not discouraged. Being outshone by Yang Qi was something they had long expected.
The hazy figure across from them also revealed his true form: a young man of tall build, with black hair draped over his shoulders and a handsome face. He stood with his hands behind his back, fully displaying an extraordinary bearing.
A pelican let out a piercing cry and, without any suspense, was struck by the sword light. With a boom, it exploded into a skyful of blood mist, white feathers scattering in disarray.
Before he had been there long, Yang Qi and the other two followed up as well. It seemed the three of them had not yet eaten.
“Hundreds of billions is not such a frightening number.” Ye Bai wrapped an arm around her, kissed her fiercely twice, and then set her on the windowsill to continue teasing her.
Everyone was baffled by this sudden turn of events. Aside from the two people in the stands, all eyes turned to Shen Zhongtian and Wu Ninghang’s reactions. Shen Zhongtian wore a faint look of smug satisfaction, as though everything were already under his control, while Wu Ninghang’s expression changed dramatically; he turned and glared fiercely at Shen Zhongtian.
Love was like inner energy being infused into the body, arriving slowly in wisps of light smoke. A single tear slid from the corner of Mu Xuefu’s eye onto Jing Rong’s clothes; a shimmering dewdrop seemed to rise in her gaze, blurring it with mist. She said nothing, only held Jing Rong tightly.
In the next second, Murong Qingran mercilessly shoved him away. Her face was no longer alluring; those icy phoenix eyes were filled with killing intent as she glared at him. “Hmph. So useless—how could you ever lead the Dark Assassins Hall?”
Mo Xiluo was driven mad by fury. Just as he spoke Zhang Lang’s name, before he could finish what he was saying, he coughed up several mouthfuls of blood and fell unconscious.
Xia Lin’an’s beautiful eyes were wide as she looked at Fu Yiming, blinking several times, unable to make sense of the expression on his face.
Tao Hongmei, collapsed on the ground, grew so anxious that her eyes reddened. She shouted toward Ruan Zhengsheng’s retreating back, “Don’t go!” Then she hurriedly scrambled up from the ground and ran after him.
How wonderful it was that Su Yusheng had the ability to do these things, while she could only fret helplessly and rely on Su Yusheng and her master to handle them.
“Safety comes first. Huang Zheng, Third Brother, your cultivation still isn’t stable, so go back now!” The two looked at each other, nodded, and returned to the immortal mansion, so as not to cause trouble for anyone else.
“I’ve already found a way to break your move,” Wang Yiyang said with a confident smile, tossing aside the short blade that shielded the heavens.
“I understand, Mother.” Huang Tian and Nian Nian were both excited as well. Although they had seen much killing and battle, this was their first time taking part in such a massive campaign. How could they not be thrilled?
“Divine power of Emperor Jun, one finger to shatter all!” I pointed at the seawater, and in an instant all the water collapsed and vanished, including the damn formation laid by Shi Lan. This move was even more terrifying, also known as the Great Shattering Art, capable of destroying all spells, illusions, and powers.
Everyone greeted him one after another and did not stop training. The zeal for cultivation was now running high among them, and after this campaign to exterminate the bandits, they had seen their own shortcomings. So they trained with all their might, striving to improve their cultivation.
“Don’t worry, everyone. My trial is over. Old Gan, your turn!” Since there was still immortal spiritual power pouring into my body, I couldn’t let it go to waste. There was no way I could absorb it all myself this time.
Still, they did not think too much about it. After all, they had already come, and with a powerful figure like Boss Fang among them, there was naturally nothing to fear. Even so, there remained a trace of unease in their hearts.
Qin Xiaoxuan’s intuition was sharp. “Ma Zhe, I’ve noticed you’ve become very sleazy lately. Are you fooling around behind my back?” The moment they met, he was all over her, and then he kept saying nauseating things. Even his kissing technique was far too practiced, making it hard not to suspect him.
Chu Tian suddenly understood, but with his Heaven Eye unavailable, he could only use his far-sight. Yet all around him were illusions, and his far-sight could not pierce through them at all. He could only stand there in thought.
Mu Chendong did not waste words with those robots either. In a few swift moves, he cleanly chopped the four of them into piles of scrap metal.
