Chapter 37: Visiting the Yellow Mountains Together
After much discussion, the group decided to climb Mount Huang and scale Tiandu Peak in three days. They planned to tour the front mountain, stay overnight at the Xihai Hotel, and wake up early the next morning to catch the sunrise. They would then explore the West Sea Grand Canyon, ride the small train, and follow the route through Bright Summit to tour the back mountain. This two-day itinerary was neither rushed nor slow, ensuring they wouldn't miss any of the breathtaking scenery.
The day before the climb, Jiang Yuan bought professional knee pads. She climbed Mount Huang almost every year, and there was one year when she didn't take the cable car down but instead walked from the Guest-Greeting Pine...
Ten minutes passed, and then the sound of footsteps coming ashore echoed, followed by the lights of the entire secret chamber suddenly flickering to life.
Observing the silence around them, Ye Tianyi began to chat quietly with his bedmate, Cheng Daosen, to keep himself awake and to alleviate the pressure and terror brought on by the surrounding silent darkness.
Jing Wu’s expression shifted, his eyes widening as he stared at him. Naturally, he did not grasp the weight of his words; that was his own brother—how could the camaraderie of friends or soulmates possibly compare to that?
By now, he had finally witnessed the terrifying nature of Chen Jincai. Even though Chen Jincai showed no overt hostility toward him, he could not help but remain vigilant in his heart.
Wei Yuanzi placed his palm on his back, pushing him forward while inquiring about his life over the past few years.
At the end of North Street, which led to the city gates, stood rows of taverns and teahouses. This was a vital gathering place for players to form teams and socialize, as well as the preferred spot for returning players to relax and unwind.
"Has Ruoyu left?" Ban Rong looked at Chu Chenxia, who was walking toward her. For some reason, she always felt a sense of unease when meeting Chu Chenxia’s deep, penetrating gaze.
"I don't regret it! I believe Ninth Brother loves me too," Mi Bao'er suddenly said, her face flushing as she looked at Long Sifeng.
If he had been an ordinary security guard, what mistakes could he have possibly made? The problem lay with Lu Yan, and naturally, Principal Jia would show no mercy.
For once, the matron serving in the Diancui Courtyard did not roll her eyes at Qiong'er. Instead, she smiled and bustled about the courtyard, helping to set up tables, preparing dipping sauces, and arranging bowls and dishes.
This also prompted Chu Tian to take his hands out and press them together, adopting the solemn, true countenance of a Buddha.
I rolled my eyes so hard they almost hit the moon. Even if I weren't currently stuck in this fragile, mortal flesh, I wouldn't have been able to defeat a corpse demon capable of setting up such a wicked, dark killing formation even back when I was a ghost. Ultimately, it was my own lack of ambition to blame.
Since ancient times, those capable of transcending the God Transformation stage to become Grandmasters were born monsters—geniuses with unparalleled, heaven-sent talent.
Shen Guhong leaped into the air, thrusting his long spear upward with a fierce tremor. The spear's radiance collided with Xiao Lin’s blade energy, clashing in the air with a resounding clang. Shen Guhong retreated, landing perfectly on the back of his red horse, while Xiao Lin faltered in mid-air and drifted back more than ten zhang.
This was the crux of the Turing Test; if this guy truly possessed intelligence, he would not respond according to pre-set conversational rules.
"You two go ahead. Let your father rest for a moment; Mommy will carry you after I count to three." Wen Wan coaxed her two sons. It was truly taxing for Lin Yuan to look after the two elders as well.
Xu Anran: Are you freaking blind? Do I look like I have nothing better to do than come here and play ghost? Is there something wrong with your brain?
"None of you understand the situation of this alliance, so why did you join in the first place?" Qin Zong was stunned.
"This boatman really knows how to do business. They even have Luzhou Laojiao here. I’ve heard this wine is excellent; let’s have a taste today." Qing Han was delighted, her spirits soaring.
The onlookers' mouths twitched at this sight! Even Le Yang’s expression flickered. Wu Ting, however, watched with eyes shining; this technique was executed masterfully. The only shortcoming was that the old man moved too early; had it been him, he would have closed the distance even further, leaving the opponent no time to react, even with their superior speed!
