Chapter 57: A Major Discovery

Jiang Heng watched the golden-winged roc fly away before turning back to survey the ruins before him.

Yin Sheng stared blankly into Jiang Heng's calm eyes, his grip tightening as if he wanted to embed his arms into his flesh. He had a mountain of words he wanted to pour out: he wanted to curse him, to articulate just how deeply he loved him, and to whisper countless sappy, tender endearments.

"Thank you!" Lin Jiaru let out a long breath of relief, then flushed as she expressed her gratitude. Glancing around at the others, she caught the knowing smiles on their faces, which only made her cheeks burn even hotter.

Strictly speaking, this forest was a restricted military zone belonging to the Empire, and trespassers were strictly forbidden. Anyone caught would be executed on the spot with no questions asked—the consequences were grave indeed.

"Fight, why wouldn't we fight? I'll make the call!" With that, Lin Ru wiped her hands with a tissue and began searching through her contacts, while Shen Danni pulled the duvet over herself and lay down in bed.

This thorough examination left Bai Yi quite astonished. His physical body was vastly stronger than before, with his flesh, blood, and bones all suffused with a layer of starlight radiance. Needless to say, his natal star had undoubtedly transformed his physique once again.

The next moment, Bai Yi unexpectedly unleashed the ultimate arts of the Heavenly Demons, transforming into a formless and colorless Heavenly Demon that swept across all directions. Before the eight figures in black robes could even react, they were directly devoured by him.

"You aren't really taking me to a hotel, are you?" Although Shen Fan didn't drive, he had lived here long enough to be quite familiar with Yanjing. The street An Huan was taking him down was lined with numerous hotels, some of which even featured specially designated suites for college student couples. An Huan refused to reveal their destination and simply kept his eyes on the road.

Relieved of the suppression from the immense vital energy, the will of the Ice Source Snow Lotus Fruit itself was finally liberated, allowing it to communicate freely with Bai Yi and the others while neutralizing any lingering danger.

"An old friend? More like a boyfriend, I'd say!" Yang Fan smiled, the words slipping out before he could stop them.

"Who on earth are you? Why have you appeared in this Bone-Burrying Ground? Speak, or don't blame me for being merciless." Tianxin stared coldly at the ghostly shadow and demanded.

Inside the speeding carriage, Mingzhu clutched Xiang Ning's hand, only to feel the temperature of his body dropping steadily. Overcome by panic, her tears fell in a hurried stream.

Zhao Zixun touched his throat, his expression serene as he announced in a clear voice, "Now, we need to examine the old master. All irrelevant personnel, please withdraw."

Uncle Rong's hearty laughter echoed from the doorway, and Wang Haoming hurried forward to greet him. Uncle Rong was dressed in an old-fashioned cyan vest and gown, with cloth shoes on his feet, exuding a distinct air of otherworldly transcendence.

"My younger brother called to say that Sarah has been cooped up at home feeling miserable for a full week now, Chen. What do you think we should do?" Since Li Chen and Diana were already married, he had every right to inquire into the affairs of the Spencer family. Moreover, Alice had never regarded him as an outsider, so it was only natural that she wanted to hear his advice.

Tang San's eyes flickered with a dim, deep light, and a subtle fighting intent radiated from his body, challenging the air. Yet, he also understood the current situation and refrained from issuing any actual challenge.

"What?" Old Yang's words stimulated Lu Zhonghua's nerves time and time again. This was simply too miraculous—not only could it restore his hair to its original black, but it could even eliminate his beer belly.

"What? The Imperial City Inspectorate has taken over. Do you have an objection?" The man's voice was frigid, tinged with a distinct undertone of mockery.

"Then... could I request to follow that big brother just now—uh, no, I mean Lord Lu? Can I follow Lord Lu to learn medical skills?" Ling'er blinked her large eyes, asking with a mixture of anticipation and timidity.

Suddenly, with a deafening explosion, the three-story villa collapsed. Three barrier masters failed to dodge in time and were instantly swallowed by the spreading black flames.
