After the land condition in Longcheng City changed, there were mountains, dense forests, and fierce beasts everywhere outside the city.
In recent days, Longcheng City was bustling with people. A large number of warriors swarmed into the city, and the hotels were full of people.
Chu Xun and his companions searched several inns but failed to find a room to rest.
"It looks like we'll have to sleep on the streets tonight," Chu Xun said with a bitter smile.
After thinking about it carefully, he realized that he had lived a comfortable life since he returned to the earth. When he was in the other world, it was common for him to eat and sleep in the wild.
"Master, there's a hotel ahead. Please take a rest here, and I'll go to the hotel to check if there are empty rooms," Yan Chong said.
Chu Xun replied, "Let's go together."
Aegean Hotel was one of the best hotels in Longcheng City.
The g
Chai Yuan's chilling words echoed in the air, and Wu Ming's face turned grim. He cursed inwardly, "Idiot! The consequence will be really serious if you irritate Chu Xun."People around all looked at Chu Xun to see how he would react.Chu the Devil was decisive and cruel, while the Tianlong Fort was a famous, powerful force in the Martial Tao World. It was said that the cultivation of the sect master, Long Feiyang, was unfathomable."To strengthen the Fire Dragon Palace, let's start with the Tianlong Fort," Chu Xun said faintly.Others all looked puzzled and didn't understand what Chu Xun meant, except Yan Chong and his companions. They knew that Chu Xun was targeting at the treasure house of the Tianlong Fort."Chu Xun, you will regret it." Another Human King of the Tianlong Fort stared at Chu Xun with cold eyes and continued, "No matter what kind of a devil or a cruel man you are, you're a good-for-nothing in front of
Chu Xun told Wu Ming to go back to the Tianlong Fort as a spy and report their movements to him. Since the team they sent to Longcheng City to seize the fortune had been wiped out, they wouldn't let the matter down.In addition, Chu Xun told Wu Ming to find out the location of the treasure house of the Tianlong Fort as soon as possible.When Chu Xun returned to the door of the hotel, the fight had been over.Jiu You broke Chai Yuan's legs and all his bones. Thus, Chai Yuan was dying.Wen Zhong was beaten down by Lei Bao. He got burned all over, lying on the ground and twitching.As for those half Human Kings, they were disabled by Winsome Widow and Yan Chong, who was in a rage.Seeing that Chu Xun came back alone, the people around all guessed that he failed to catch up with Wu Ming."Master, how about them?"Lei Bao asked respectfully.Only the few of them knew that
The sky turned dark, and there were cold breezes in the air.The Longcheng City was brightly lit, but the roars of beasts kept resounding outside the city.Yan Yi left."Master, can we trust him?" Yan Chong asked after hesitating for a while.Chu Xun nodded slightly. He possessed the Evocation of Heavenly Secrets, so he would never make a wrong judgment about a person."I think he is something," Lei Bao said.Winsome Widow nodded in agreement and said, "This man has a fair appearance. I don't think he is a scheming person. It's just that... his cultivation is a little low.""I don't care whether he is trustworthy or not. If he dares to betray us, I'll kill him." Jiu You's childish voice was full of murderous intent.Chu Xun raised his hand and flicked on her smooth forehead, saying, "While we adults are talking, you, a small child, should keep quiet."Jiu You pulled a
Darkness shrouded itself over the crests and peaks of mountains like a sinister cloak of enigma and gloom."Do you seek death?"A voice clamored from amongst the crowd."Arrogant fool. You'll weep when you've tasted Death yourself. Now begone before you regret!""Impudence! Charge!"For the sake of the best position, fights and brawls broke out.The frown on Chu Xun's forehead creased deeper, more so, the foreboding dread swelling inside him.Even Jiu You could not resist being silent with grim apprehension.For the want of getting closer to the mountain, more battles sparked off.Boom!The mountain shook."Look!" screamed a voice, "The light's dying."Everyone froze and the battle died as quickly as it erupted and everyone rushed like a stampede for the mountainside.Three columns of lights shot up into the sky from
Swoosh!A squalid breeze of foul air poured from inside the cave, rolling up the foul aura wafting lazily around in waves.Reverently, the cultists remained kneeling with their heads on the ground. Their hoods obscured their face and everyone could not see their faces, although one could almost make out the excitement and thrill in their voice.Everyone else was shaking as well, but not because of excitement so much as because of fear.The presence that flooded out the cave entrance was so morbidly terrifying that even Human Kings could not help feeling their hairs stand, never mind other warriors with far more inferior strengths.Chu Xun peered solemnly in silence, projecting his spiritual senses in hopes of finding what lurked inside and the images of what transpired inside appeared in his mind.The walls of the cave bore the hallmarks of ancient, forgotten, but ornate furnishing—they were stones hewn an
Chu Xun howled with agony, desperately trying to resist as his body shone. Yet, nothing he did could stop his blood from being forcibly drawn out through the pores all over him that he was completely wet with his own blood from top to bottom.The blood coagulated and flowed up his arms, his shoulders, and floated to the air like weightless droplets rising higher until they were absorbed by the gigantic skeletal hand.Chu Xun screamed and screamed maniacally, yet there was nothing he could do, for the force of the monstrous hand was too powerful."My Lord...""His Lordship..."Yan Chong and the others caught up to the fleeing warriors, stopped them, and finally discovered what was happening.Without any hesitation, they raced up the slopes and when they arrived, what they saw stunned them beyond words.Frost formed on Jiu You's fair little face. Brandishing her silver spear, she lunged towards
Like a withering plant coming back to life quickly, Chu Xun's body recovered at an exponential rate—his hair began to shine once more, his hair soft and smooth again, and his aura spiking high speedily."Stop that, you puny ant! I'll let you go! I'd even take you as my personal apprentice!" The voice in the cave boomed with a tinge of fear.Such was the indomitable might of the Firmament Chain, that whatever the giant skeletal hand had robbed from Chu Xun, it was being drawn back in full.The monster inside the cave let loose a series of angry, guttural howls.Forged by the very laws of Nature, the Firmament Chain had been consuming Chu Xun's True Energy while keeping him in check, and the gigantic skeletal hand's draining away of Chu Xun's life had angered it.The Chain pulsed with another blinding glow, then it withdrew quickly.Crack!An ear-splitting clap of bones cracking resounded and th
Near the outskirts of Pingshun Town was a thirty-three storey tall building. It was originally close to the town center until the shift of the earth's crust moved it away from the heart of the little borough.It was then purchased by a rich landlord to be used as a house of pleasure.Being out of reach of the law, and far enough in front of larger social issues to be just out of reach of local politics, this place became a heaven for warriors and wealthy folks to come indulge in exotic epicurean pleasures of wild beasts.It was boisterous and noisy on the thirty-second storey of this lavish alehouse, but every patron who was there could not help but shift their gaze furtively towards one direction.On a table by the window sat a woman with the grace and beauty of a fairy of the High Heavens. She nibbled at her food, although the faintly sour frown on her forehead indicated that the savories were nowhere near agreeable to her appeti
