Chapter 104: Cross-Server Dialogue (Two-in-One)

When he finished speaking, their eyes met. Within Chengqian Hall, the silence was so absolute that one could almost hear the snow piled on the eaves outside the window melting, each droplet falling from the glazed roof tiles shaped like horned beasts.

To hear that name spoken by Pei Xiunian in the presence of Su Zhiqiu, the original owner of this body, was something she had never anticipated in the slightest.

From Su Zhiqiu’s perspective, apart from the Yu family controlled by Qingqiu, no one else could possibly have known that she had infiltrated Pei Xiunian’s side.

Not to mention Pei Xiunian—how could he...

A cultivator of the Daoist grounds wielded a pair of golden and silver rings. The force they unleashed was as keen as a blade, yet it followed winding arcs, making the angles of attack treacherous and bizarre beyond measure.

At that moment, the European and American reporters were waiting with great interest for Su Huainian’s final rock group, wondering which unlucky fellow would be chosen.

A violent gale descended from overhead, containing countless razor-sharp blades of wind. When it struck Qingzhou, a thunderous collision rang out; Qingzhou flexed his muscles and shattered the attack. Then he leapt into the air, seized the Wind-Catching Roc by both wings, and tore it in half.

After transforming into a golden eagle, Qiming immediately mastered the art of flight, as though he had been born knowing how. With each beat of his wings, the air was divided into upper and lower currents. The difference in their speeds produced a difference in pressure, allowing the air to bear him aloft.

Zheng Guiyang was rendered speechless. If he had not risen to this position on the strength of Su Huai’s achievements, he would have cursed outright... How could something involving such an important title be decided just like that?

The two sheer cliffs of Stormwind Valley faced the outside world, while their inner slopes were gentler and just barely climbable.

“We must hold the line. Everyone who can fight—soldiers, mercenaries, or commoners—anyone capable of taking up a weapon must go to the battlefield and block the next assault. That will give us a chance to catch our breath.” Ivo spoke with grim finality. If the situation collapsed, he could only abandon everything he had built and flee on dragonback with the Hurricane Corps.

Ander was equipped with four shields and charged in after Baro. Only the three of them had come to rescue their subordinates; Luna had gone to retrieve the supplies, so they had split into two groups.

Shen Langzhi remembered the punch he had taken. At the time, he had desperately wanted to return it, yet he had gritted his teeth and endured. A man like that absolutely could not be married.

Although her voice trembled with fear and timidity lurked in her eyes, her back remained perfectly straight. She studied the Empress Dowager’s expression, as though trying to discern the truth from it.

The extremely aged green-haired crone sorrowfully took a golden brocade box from her storage pouch and placed it on the ground. In the next instant, the four great sea-folk cultivators surrounded it, sat cross-legged, and began refining the Sea-Calming Needle within beneath the purple auspicious clouds.

It turned out that Li Sen’s furious appearance moments earlier had merely been an act. After witnessing the purple-robed giant’s arrogance, he had deliberately played along and turned the man’s scheme against him.

Take Star Lord Taihuang, for instance. He had been willing to pay such an enormous price merely to enter that secret chamber and comprehend the divine art within. Once his mastery reached the pinnacle, he was even confident that his strength would break through by leaps and bounds, bringing him to the level of a first-rate star lord.

Whether he had become excited upon sensing that there was a dead person in the coffin and hearing that it contained burial goods, or whether he had panicked because it held not only a sword but also a corpse, he could not say. In any case, his feelings were a tangled mixture, far more complicated than when he had known only that there was a sword inside.

Sarah cast an expressionless glance at the alien lying on the ground, its life or death uncertain. Not the slightest emotion appeared on her face. Clearly, Gu Ge’s casual display of one earth-shaking ability after another had already left her numb.

The bodyguard had no intention of letting Liu Mao off so easily. He walked over, raised his foot, and kicked Liu Mao in the chest.

Fatty Cui burst into laughter. “Even if he can foresee the future, he could never have imagined that he would run into us. Meeting us is simply his bad luck. Come on, brothers. Start digging.” With that, he picked up a spade and began to dig. Old Cui truly deserved his reputation as an expert tomb raider; in only a few strokes, he had dug out a pit.
