Chapter 127: Using Evil to Defeat Evil

Although Lin Jianyan’s voice was faint when she spoke after waking, Miao Jinyue still heard her clearly.

She could not help feeling somewhat astonished. She had never expected that this young girl, whose origins lay with the Demon Suppression Bureau, would be able to see the problem within her the moment she regained consciousness.

Then an indescribable sense of shame welled up within her. It would have been bad enough to suffer a humiliating defeat through her own carelessness, but now she had not only failed to restrain the demon; she had instead allowed it to seize her mind, and had developed improper feelings toward that hideous fish monster.

“Fine. I’ll go handle the handover tomorrow. While I’m at it, I’ll choose a name for myself. Calling me Qingyi is far too frightening.” Ye Liuli chuckled.

Ye Feng smiled. He liked Zhong Ling’s lively, innocent nature, entirely free of affectation. As they continued forward, he passed the Taixu Steps on to Zhong Ling.

A mass of black mist swept toward them. Within it, a strange creature spat a mouthful of red, uncanny fog toward the place where Li Xu stood.

If even the elder was so astonished, the disciples of the Everlasting Life Sect were utterly dumbfounded, rooted to the spot.

“Is this the bite mark you mentioned before?” Ye Kaicheng looked at the mark, a satisfied smile appearing in his eyes as he asked the question.

Liu Jin agreed at once. He understood Huai En’s temperament; she would certainly be happy to lend her assistance. Besides, was this marriage not meant to help the Crown Prince ascertain the situation within the court?

“I, the foreign minister A Lehai, pay my respects to His Majesty, Emperor of Great Zhou!” A Lehai’s expression was haughty as he knelt before Emperor Yongxi on one knee.

As the resounding peal of the bell rang out, Elder Yuanhe, seated upon the immortal crane, slowly opened his eyes.

Afterward, they met many times in Yangzhou. Ding Xian even bought Yu Mei’s freedom, until, when the slopes outside Yangzhou appeared, Ding Xian took her and fled the city.

“Villa Number Nineteen? Why are you asking about that? You haven’t gone and caused trouble for me again, have you? You absolutely must not touch that family.” Ye Zhen was startled, then immediately issued a warning.

A man like him—looking back across countless cycles of rebirth, and forward through all the lives yet to come—was someone she feared she would never encounter a second time.

I felt around for the cartridge, only to catch the night-vision goggles that Koller held out. I threw them to the right. Koller’s “Thanks” came from that direction, followed by a wild burst of machine-gun fire.

The Water Mirror and the teachings of the past had practically carved the sacred palace atop the Ice Peak into her heart. She could find her way through that crystal palace even with her eyes closed.

“Excellent. Just like that—keep it steady.” The peculiar-looking middle-aged man sensed the change in Xu Jingnian’s sword intent and nodded in satisfaction.

Qin Yousang cast several spells in succession inside the cabin. Her true energy was abundant, and its circulation was utterly smooth, without the slightest stagnation.

And so everyone lived in peace until evening. At dinner, Old Zhang, Old Mrs. Zhang, Zhang Guoqiang, and the other elders all took their seats before Zhang Xin and Zhang Ran slowly sat down.

Seeing that Shen Lang was unwilling to speak, Zhou Yong abandoned the subject and led him directly to the office of the human resources manager.

The force of the explosion hurled Li Wei into the air. Once its power dissipated, he came crashing heavily back to the ground. The entire floor had collapsed, and Li Wei fell into the ruins, buried beneath them.

“It should have worked.” Xu Jingnian tentatively moved. Seeing that the spirit showed no reaction, he had a thought, summoned his long sword, and unleashed the Radiant Sword Technique, slashing at a wooden post set aside for practice.

Amid the golden torrent, a gigantic red fist burst through and slammed heavily into the face of Tiansha, descending from the sky.

“But…” Ning Huohuo’s heart was filled with bitterness, because apart from the white subterranean creature before her, there was nothing else.

But now? Her confident smile had vanished without a trace. In its place were only vacant eyes and a helpless expression.

However, the fox demon Liu Niang had left them with a final remark, saying that there was still a godfather involved. This left everyone in the village feeling deeply uneasy.

Li Yan performed a few simple operations and loaded the test environment for the spectator system. My test character and Xie Liuying’s instantly appeared in a magnificent arena, surrounded by tier upon tier of spectator stands. The visual impact was astonishing.

Everyone drained their cups. Those who could not drink alcohol naturally had beverages such as Pepsi instead.

While Gongsun Ziniang was doing business in jewelry along the Sea Road, she took in a disciple named Liu Yifeng and passed on to him her skills in dealing with people, as well as her martial arts. Later, seeing how capable her disciple was, she gradually stopped meeting outsiders and entrusted the entire business to Liu Yifeng.

Kobe had scored thirty-four points, made five assists, and grabbed nine rebounds that day. He had given everything he had. Then he looked up at the giant screen above the arena and bit his lip in resentment.

Qin Youruo did not quite understand when Yi Feng had detected the golden dragon, but at that moment she had no time to think about it.

“What? We’re already finished?” Teacher Qin looked at Chu Shengling in disbelief.

The moment Mu Chen saw the two maids behind him, he confirmed the man’s identity. Other than the Empty Young Master, there could be no one else.

Watching Wang Qian descend from the arena, Wang Zheng hurriedly dispelled the silly thoughts that had sprung into his mind in his excitement and walked over to support his arm.

Inside a battered ship that had escaped the lock-on and reentered hyperspace, a one-eyed man roared with a ferocious expression.

“Boom!”

All sensation vanished in an instant. He could neither hear nor see, and could not even feel his own existence, as though his mind had disappeared along with everything else. There was nothing in his heart but bewilderment and calm.

“You agreed. Why wouldn’t you agree to something that can make money?” As he spoke, Wang Zheng pulled Shen Bing onto the sofa beside them.

Not only that, he also activated the sacred artifact he had summoned. The skull of a sacred being appeared behind him, as though some terrifying power had been refined within it.

After sending the message, she drove while glancing at her phone from time to time. The phone seemed to have stopped working; not a single reply came.

Things underground were unlike those aboveground. The power of the earth was best at breaking things down, and countless ruins had turned to soil beneath the ground, making them impossible to identify.

Zhang Cuilian took the money without the slightest courtesy and said coldly, “Then I’m leaving!” With that, she turned and walked away without looking back.

She then rose to borrow a wheelchair and packed up her things with Auntie Gu. Gu Zhicheng drove the car to the entrance, and about ten minutes later, Zhang Cuilian and the others finally came downstairs.

Then the sorrow vanished from her face, replaced by a smile of conspiratorial triumph.

Liu Yihua felt that this conjecture was entirely reasonable. Otherwise, why would Lailishi have suddenly decided to appear that very evening? She must have received word that someone would purchase her freedom. Otherwise, a proud and haughty woman like Lailishi would probably not have acted so rashly.
