Chapter 40 Confirming Identity

Seeing this, the two had no choice but to report the situation to the head of the security department.

"Director, it's not that we didn't want to chase her away, but she keeps insisting on seeing the principal. It's been over a month now. When we asked her why she wanted to see the principal, she wouldn't say. Just now, when we tried to use force, she actually cried and knelt down to kowtow to us. Seeing that she's about the same age as the students here, I wonder if there's some hidden story behind this. Perhaps you could ask the principal for instructions?"

They were merely ordinary security guards, and since the other party was a girl...

Fortunately, Ying Si had decent luck. He happened to be the closest to these six pillars, which made them very easy for him to find.

This was a burst of strength akin to a final surge of vitality, born within his body under the stimulation of the death aura outside the cave. Within just a few breaths, Ye Feng had already rushed dozens of meters ahead.

Chen Jing, however, was thinking to himself that Lady Cuiping had not actually transformed into human form yet. He did not know that over the past millennium, true transformations between heaven and earth were exceedingly rare; most were merely illusory shapes. When it came to guarding and protecting others during breakthroughs, Chen Jing had some experience—back then, when Turtle Abyss was undergoing his heavenly tribulation at Wicked Dragon Gorge, it was Chen Jing who had protected him.

"You're welcome. If there's nothing else, we'll be leaving first," the leader said with a wave of his hand. Then, under the watchful gaze of the others, he led a dozen or so colleagues toward the interior of the venue.

It could be said that the Tiger King was a true soldier who had been tempered by the baptism of battlefield fire, or even a hero. His deeds had been passed down generation after generation among the squad members, serving as a role model, a benchmark, and a goal for everyone to chase.

"A stagehand?" Lin Feng frowned slightly, looking somewhat puzzled, unsure why Su Zimo was bringing this up.

"Two pounds of beef, two jars of wine," a voice abruptly rang out. "Three days from now at the wine-tasting contest, I shall also act as a judge!" The tone was resolute and allowed for no refutation, sounding like a supreme emperor declaring his decision to his subjects.

Outside the bronze tripod, Lin Lang and the others also saw the palm print appearing on the tripod wall, and their expressions changed in unison. But immediately afterward, Lin Lang's expression returned to normal. With a cold sneer, a wisp of flame, significantly more scorching than before, flew out and landed inside the dragon's mouth.

What should be the next step? To consolidate forces? If he did that, his losses would be massive—not only a loss of more than half his personnel, but also a loss of territory.

She had long since burned bridges with Jiang Xiaowan at school, and the two of them had practically zero communication last semester. Now, praising her so lavishly over a movie made Su Jinyun feel that there was an ulterior motive she simply could not handle.

"Sister Qing, I'll help you." Seeing that Sister Qing had placed the steamed sea bass down and turned back toward the kitchen, Su Jinyun quickly followed her in, looking eager to try her hand.

The two fraudulent Taoist priests and Liu Changying had all heard the barking of the dogs as well, but none of them took it seriously and simply continued with their act.

As for the saying "those who sever mortal desires do not die," it meant that mortals stepping onto the path of cultivation must cut off all emotional attachments and desires, seal their vital essence and preserve it, and have no offspring in exchange for attaining immortality and indestructibility.

Pestered and harshly chided by the rabbit over the matter of vying for favor, the large badger grew anxious and suddenly opened a divine aperture, opening its mouth to speak human words.

At the same time, he was filled with sighs and mixed emotions. Among all the side-lane players in the league, Zhou Jie was top-tier in terms of strength, yet he lost so miserably in a solo duel against Ji Xian. If word got out, he would likely become a laughingstock.

He also knew he had been saved by the ice crystals, and had heard how the nine clans of the crystal-guarding family had been executed. He weakly muttered, "I'm sorry."
"I didn't hear you. What did you say?"
He raised his voice by an octave: "I'm sorry!"
Xilan in the distance was also startled; she had heard it too. Although my ears were ringing with pain, I still smiled foolishly.

Su Ye didn't even spare Yang Zhuohao a glance, acting as though everything was natural and as it should be. As for how Yang Zhuohao would deal with those three people behind him, that was no longer something Su Ye needed to consider. Right now, Su Ye was heading straight for the summit.
