Chapter 40: Seeking Help

After staring at it for a long while, she still could not tell what it was. The scrap of paper was smaller than Jiang Tang’s palm, and there was simply too little information.
Sensing that the spaceship had stopped, Jiang Tang withdrew from the mental realm and opened her eyes.
Liya said groggily, “Huh? Is it time to eat? Ow, my neck!”
She moved the head she had kept tilted for ages, and the soreness in her neck twisted her face.
Jiang Tang cheekily reached out and helped straighten her head. Liya cried out in pain, “Jiang Tang!”
When the spectators at the scene witnessed this, they once again offered thunderous applause and cheers without hesitation.
The moment Wei Zhu died, all the disciples of the Poison Fiend Sect gathered around, surrounding Du Bucheng and Han Shuangxue in the center.
Once the protection of those several layers of barriers was lost, gods—creations without physical forms—were even more fragile than flesh-and-blood humans in the face of magical power.
This time, what was spread across the long table was not the instant food from before, but an assortment of Han-style dishes: hot and cold, meat and vegetables, everything one could ask for. Alcohol and other drinks sat among the dishes, all produced in Han, with not a single foreign bottle in sight.
“Where did this Jiang Tianchen come from, anyway? How is he so much stronger than Ye Qingtian!?” Li Han fled by means of a bloody escape technique, his heart filled with bitterness.
Du Bucheng had originally planned to unseal the Tribulation Immortal and have him help him survive the Chaotic Tribulation. He had never expected the Tribulation Immortal to be so vindictive. Not only did he refuse to help, he even kicked him while he was down, driving nine Bone-Sealing Nails into his body and then bringing down the most powerful heavenly thunder.
The only thing that surprised her was that Han Xiangyue, who ranked eighth on the Star Battle Rankings, had taken part in the frontline coastal recruitment missions several times. If she remembered correctly, it had been less than a month since the demon-beast army invaded from the northwest and entered the territory of Fenghai City, hadn’t it?
Hearing Du Bucheng boast so shamelessly, Han Shuangxue gave a cold snort, but the resentment in her heart had disappeared.

“Since you’re asking, I may as well tell you. These two are Han Shuangxue and Han Shuangshuang, the young sect masters of the Yellow Dawn Sect. As for me, I’m merely a guest elder of the Yellow Dawn Sect. My name needn’t be mentioned. In any case, as long as you defeat me, I’ll decide that these two young sect masters and my cousin’s wife are yours!” Du Bucheng cast a provocative glance at Gan Bai.
Yi Feng had already sensed the violent fluctuations of magical elements in the air. When he looked up, he saw dozens of magicians hovering behind the crowd, multicolored radiance surging from their staffs. Their spiritual power had firmly locked onto Yi Feng’s position.
She shook her head and focused her eyes. Rong Haozhou’s handsome face was indeed right before her, the corners of his brows and eyes touched by a layer of gentle amusement.
A few days earlier, he had failed to bribe the chef at the tavern. Yet apparently unwilling to give up, he had come again today to purchase the recipe.
Nervously holding the bottle of mineral water in her hand, she moved closer to her senior, unscrewed the cap, and offered it to him.
This covetous fellow was not particularly capable. The cultivation method he had inherited could not even produce a core, and he could cultivate only to the Body-Tempering stage. Moreover, the method itself was poor, and the baleful energy he cultivated was extremely impure. His magical power was hardly any greater than Xu Li’s.
Words that sounded thoroughly unreliable became strangely convincing when spoken in Rong Haozhou’s steady voice; not a hint of falsehood could be heard.
Han Dang completed the task Sun Ce had assigned him, gathering more than nine hundred defeated soldiers of Jiangdong nearby.
The damage caused by forcibly bearing the will of a king or marquis was the most terrifying kind of “Dao injury” in the martial realm.
Although the chair frame was not complicated, the fact that it had been completed in a single day showed that Qin Cheng had truly taken the matter to heart.
Everyone knew that their master was extraordinarily powerful, but none of them had imagined that even his sword-forging skills could reach such a level.
The voice-over said: “Are you blind? Don’t you have legs? Even if you have neither, don’t you have a brain? If the plague wasn’t serious, would the emperor have ordered the alley sealed off completely? Are you wearing that official robe on a dog?”
“Hey, Beelzebub, what do you think Samael and Lilith would feel if they saw a scene like this?” Asmodeus turned and called out to the departing Beelzebub.

“Can’t you have a little faith in me? How can you be so sure that no one secretly admires me?” Zhao Menghua was speaking when the elevator arrived. The two of them stepped inside, and she continued, “Just because I dress up a little does that mean I have to confess my feelings to someone else?” Her face was full of arrogant indignation.
He considered himself the foremost talent of the Chen family’s generation. After years of patient preparation, he was waiting for next year’s imperial examination, where he would place among the top three, bring glory to his ancestors, and finally give full expression to the ambitions in his heart.
The hole in the left temple of Xia Mengyou’s head was still spilling blood. Liu Yaoxi could not accept it. He did not dare accept it. He was utterly incapable of accepting it.
After grumbling, Shimukun put away the unreliable earphones, intending to ask Principal Gao Yu, who had issued him this shoddy product, to examine them when he returned.
Things became rather awkward once they reached this point. If they had known there was a vertical cavern here, wouldn’t it have been much easier simply to descend straight down?
After General Ji finished speaking, he even made as if to throw himself upon the coffin of Old General Long Wu, but General Long Jiu drew his sword and stopped him.
Although he had been struck without warning, the lightning was not particularly powerful. It felt no worse than a needle prick.
The instant the Primordial Sword Intent landed in Shen Feng’s hand, he immediately activated the immortal jade and sank it into the formation’s core mechanism before swinging his sword.
If everything were loaded inside, it would look far too fake. Tang Sheng did not believe the enemy lacked the ability to examine wounds. It would be better to make it appear that they were suffering from a shortage of weapons.
Though she had never seen them, those two newborn children were already enough to make Jiang Jinyan’s heart ache.
When Jiang Yunqing came to take them out of the city that morning, only Huiyu and several hidden guards accompanied him. Jun Jingmo was nowhere to be seen, and Zuo Ziyue immediately realized that the two of them had probably fallen into disagreement over their journey to Zongshu.
