Chapter 159: Zhou Chengli’s Arrest Warrant

Chun Xin’s expression was complex.

Wen Ni gently caressed her belly and smiled, saying, “I’m still early in my pregnancy. I’ve heard that when the baby grows bigger, it will greet the mother, using little fists and tiny feet to kick the mother’s belly.”

Chun Xin kept her head bowed low.

Wen Ni stood up. “Think it over carefully. If you come to terms with it, you can see me anytime.”

With that, Wen Ni left.

Suddenly, Chun Xin raised her head sharply.

Watching Wen Ni’s retreating figure, she clenched her fists tightly.

At the same time, she was slightly startled by Ning Ning's cold ruthlessness. If an adult acted this way, it wouldn’t be surprising. After all, he was accustomed to turmoil and bloodshed, having witnessed countless killings; this level of cruelty did not frighten him.

Just as Wu Ming was about to tend to his wound, he suddenly sprinkled some gunpowder onto it and then lit it with a lighter. In an instant, the gunpowder ignited and burned fiercely on his injury.

Among the seven of them, the kindly old man clad in a purple-gold robe was the leader. He was the highest-ranking and most powerful figure in Blue Crystal City—Shi Rufeng, the Supreme Elder of the Six Paths Sect.

“Putting aside your entanglements with us sisters, I still cannot accept the death of my parents back then. Though I don’t entirely blame you, Mo Shitian, you cannot escape responsibility,” Su Ruyu said coldly.

“I just think that if someone wins a place but doesn’t register for the provincial competition, it would be disrespectful to the chairman. We are all from the same city and need to support each other. If we back him this time, it will be easier to seek his help in the future.”

Su Zixiu’s face paled in shock. As he desperately changed tactics, a flash of sword light appeared before him. A cold gleam nearly grazed his forehead, accompanied by a piercing wind sound and an icy, faint scent of water that nearly froze his blood.

Sunlight finally pierced through the morning clouds, casting slanting rays climbing up the white wall and reaching the eaves. Momo nervously stared at Ze’s face. His eyes had turned blood red, and his hands twitched uncontrollably. Though he held Momo tightly, it felt more like he was hiding behind her.

Meanwhile, the vanished Demon Halberd reappeared elsewhere, fixating on the phantom beast that had ambushed it. It summoned back the thousand razor-sharp swords that had been wreaking havoc, merging them back into eight blades.

The ground was violently split open, forming a deep crack. Just as Lei Zhan attempted to enter, a strong aura of death surged from the depths of the fissure.

With the enhancement of the Alien Soul Shadow, Zaiyuan’s speed and strength were greatly amplified. Now, as he sprinted forward like a gust of wind, the shadow left behind a long black trail.

Snape tried to use the Legilimens spell to read Sylvia’s memories, but all he saw were scenes from the first-year opening ceremony and the sorting ritual.

“Last night’s locksmith was actually the Headmaster’s man. When I escorted the locksmith out of town today, I happened to run into the Headmaster!” Wang Qinian said, embarrassed.

The assistant shuddered at the thought of those many days with eyes watching her back, while she had been completely unaware, laughing and joking.

Slytherin students enthusiastically celebrated their victory. Sylvia took a deep breath in a corner of the pitch’s grassy field.

Before the words were finished, Ji Wushuang’s hands glowed with a milky white aura, spreading across the entire flying sword.

Witnessing all this, the Purple Supreme Dragon Emperor widened his dragon eyes in disbelief. He could scarcely believe that his attack could be so easily blocked, but then he burst into a wild and ferocious laugh.

“All right, stop dwelling on it. Once Annie arrives, we’ll discuss it. There’s no use overthinking,” Luo Yuning said, seeing Austin still frowning. She made the decision, just as Luo Mingxuan approached from the front.

At first, Lin Shanquan generously handed over hundreds of thousands of bushels of grain to him for distribution.

Loki, Li Luffy, and the two brothers, Golden Horn and Silver Horn, successfully killed three late-stage Xuanxian fierce beasts, afterward chatting and laughing with ease.
