33 A Wish
It can be said that the entire Xiaoyao Basin is now teeming with people. Old Jiu has also begun a massive road construction project; after all, if one wants to become wealthy, one must first build roads. Once the project was launched, Old Jiu began putting out large-scale tenders, and now, many projects no longer require his personal oversight.
At dawn the next day, before the sky had even brightened, Master Bao rose to prepare the day's supplies, as is the arduous routine of any restaurant owner.
The four students, having narrowly escaped the clutches of death, were at a loss for what to do. How could they not be excited when they suddenly saw two other players appear out of thin air?
Lu Yan shook her head as she watched these two guys continue to spout nonsense. Given the current situation, she felt somewhat helpless about their behavior, so she could only wait and see.
"I am working hard for myself, so that when I grow old, you won't abandon me, and I won't be left without the means to support myself!" Mi Du said, rolling her eyes.
"I want to gently hold her hand, Mother told me there is still hope. Seeing the sun rise, Mother smiled, the sky has brightened." Han Bingbing, who had always left Lu Yan with the impression of being carefree, softly hummed this mournful song, making Lu Yan’s heart ache.
With this, Kielron became completely convinced that what he held in his hand was the legendary Staff of Reincarnation—Hela, which possessed the power to grant and strip away the lives of others.
"Go to hell!" Situ Fusu roared suddenly, and a dense blue light instantly spread from his body, enveloping the six high-level martial artists.
While Old Jiu’s plan was unfolding, Mi Bao’er personally took charge at Canglong Island, rushing to manufacture the equipment Old Jiu required. Old Jiu’s main purpose in coming here was to check on the current progress and understand the state of equipment production.
According to what Ye Feng knew, the Lord Realm God was the most powerful existence in the divine realm; even if the six great Realm Kings united, they would have no chance of winning.
Do not be fooled by his usual boasts of being invincible; in reality, he is a novice, and being a novice, he cannot avoid making novice mistakes.
The red-faced man kicked the man in the shoulder, sending him sprawling onto the grass. Terrified, his sobbing became intermittent.
Even so, Jin Shengzhe struggled to sit up, leaning his back against the wall, gasping for air.
All the branch disciples, inner disciples, and elite disciples of the Lin family saw the projection of the Heavenly Mirror in the night sky. Many etched Lin Yi’s face firmly into their memories, their hearts filled with fighting spirit.

Dantai Zijin appeared somewhat awkward at this moment, not knowing what to say.
Regardless of the outcome today, he had already tasted the feeling of satisfaction. Being able to sit down and negotiate openly with the Scavengers was a wish he had formed months ago when he founded the Platinum Organization. Months had passed, and now, this wish had been fulfilled sooner than expected. This was an unexpected surprise.
However, this was enough. With each strike, a powerhouse could be slain; who knew how many charges the Blood Spirit Saint’s God-Slaying Gourd had left?
When Ye Tian said this, the atmosphere in the room turned cold, especially on the Sun family's side, where many felt a tremor in their hearts.
Before leaving home, Jin Shengzhe had anticipated various situations that might occur and had prepared strategies for each one.
A light blade over ten feet long was brought down by Yang Yan with brute force, its violent momentum tearing through the void as it collided fiercely with the massive three thousand stars in the sky.
Damn, why does that sound so familiar? It seems like something Mo Feng shouted not long ago... Now that it’s being thrown back at him, who knows how he feels? He must be wishing he were dead.
After lasting for ten heartbeats, the torrent of plum blossoms dissipated, and Qian Chuan collapsed heavily to the ground. He felt as if he had been hacked into a thousand pieces, in so much pain that he could not move.
Thus, he simply gave up on steering and focused all his energy on channeling. In this way, with his Foundation Establishment Stage One cultivation, Li Chengjie was able to unleash five sword qi beams.
"It seems the outcome was decided before this competition even began!" Karsas nodded in agreement.
They did not know how long they had been running; not hearing Ye Xian’s command, they could only continue. However, they were now gasping for air, completely winded.
The leader in black recovered from his shock and regrouped to attack again, but Lin Yu and Lu Lingmeng were not about to stay, flying off in opposite directions.
Just then, the archer suddenly took a stride, using his broad physique to shield Zhang Yin. This action left the latter stunned.
Could this youth possess the legendary Reverse Spirit Veins! Lu Chen exclaimed inwardly, while feeling a sense of pity for the boy before him.

"Is there anyone else who wishes to challenge?" Lin Yu asked indifferently. If not... then the Purple Five-Element Xuan would be his. He knew things would not be so easy, and not long after, he heard a soft voice.
If the Corpse Immortal Emperor and Luo Tian were only third or fourth-tier cultivators, he and Hongmeng would not have cared.
Numerous emerging expedition teams chimed in. During this time, Li Feng’s Dragon King Blade was already in hand, and at the same time, the Kyushu Wolf account was instantly debited seventy billion Chinese Yuan, leaving only a few million in interest.
"Damned outsider, are you stupid? If you won't move, I'll come to you!" the four-level early-stage Dragon-man child leader taunted. After this sentence, before Li Feng could reply, he rode his Yinglong and charged forward.
He hoped this moment would last a little longer, just a little longer. She, however, withdrew her hand, her sleeves brushing past, leaving behind a refreshing fragrance.
Unconcealed ridicule drifted from the surroundings. Wang Ming did not pay much attention at first, but when the last voice faded, he paused slightly, and then a strange smile appeared on his face.
In the hall, Lei Wu was unusually idle. He lay on a rattan chair, watching the vast array of surveillance footage on the screen, his eyes unblinking, seemingly lost in thought.
"It’s me!" Tang Yuan recovered her composure. At this moment, she felt she could neither leave nor stay, so she simply sat down next to Qin Zhuxiao.
After they exchanged a few more words, Li Feng and the others departed. As for how Old Man Xing would return home, that was not for them to worry about.
Although Zhang Gongzi had heard that she was insane, it was the first time he and Zhang Nian had seen her in such a state, and he tried to restrain her.
