Limitless Ascension: Strength Amid Adversity

Ice Orchid immediately felt her heart skip a beat, her limbs almost stiffened halfway, unable to move. It was Killing Intent! The moment Yao Xian raised his hand, an overwhelming Killing Intent poured down from him, swirling around her like a storm.

The cannon fired thunderously. The dark clouds in the sky thinned out, and sunlight poured down on every corner of East Gate City, unabashed. A rainbow appeared on the horizon.

Ice Orchid nodded slightly, pondering her strategy in silence. She furrowed her brows, deliberately revealing a few traces of calmness, but couldn’t hide her youthful pride; her violet eyes were as mysterious as clouds and mist, captivating. Her handsome face was filled with serious focus, reminiscent of a figure from a painting.

At that moment, Ouyang Mo, bound by magic once again, spoke up: “We’re in a Barrier, right?” Ice Orchid instinctively nodded.

Jiang Yin hadn’t reacted yet; who would’ve thought the monk’s thoughts were so refreshingly unique? It was his first time falling into such a deep pit.

“Moon Viewing Tavern? What are you going there for?” Liu Zhen asked, surprised. This dashing young man couldn’t possibly be going there for a drink, right?

Upon hearing this, Ying Zheng revealed a look of suspicion; this person’s tone didn’t sound like one of submission. What he said implied familiarity, not reverence, proving that he wasn’t intimidated by his imperial might.

“Got something big on our hands… Seriously, it’s huge news for us!” Second Brother exclaimed with delight, rubbing his hands together and shooting a glance at the eldest.

He gathered all the new followers back to the Sect of Balance, lamenting they were out to greet. This elder placed his weapon at the feet of a scoundrel, pleading with his former disciple to abandon the shadows and return to the path of balance.

Before they could finish speaking, a pair of pale hands stretched out from the dark, jagged black nails clawing at an Armed Team Member. “Get lost!” Wang Yuan kicked the corpse several meters away.

When they arrived at the Inner Palace, Liu Yan spotted Xiao Zilan sitting alone on a large rock by the lake, staring into space.

“Honorable lady, we are not beggars; we are soldiers from the former Legion, having served under Sula, confident we can handle any construction work,” Mi Lu argued with a hint of dissatisfaction.

Ji Ju, instructed by Sima Yu, originally planned to secure the imperial jade seal with a verbal promise first, but Ma Qiu firmly insisted no rabbits, no catching eagles. Ji Ju spent half a month to no avail and, in despair, had no choice but to leave Ye City, bickering with Sima Yu, Huan Wen, and Ma Qiu.

A new Marine Combat Battalion of a thousand volunteers was formed; Zhuge You took the post of Marine Officer, while Su Wang took over as Cavalry Officer. The Light Cavalry Battalion was expanded to fifteen hundred riders, the Formation Battalion to six hundred, the Celestial Cavalry Battalion to a thousand, and Stone Qing’s Guardian Team expanded to four hundred, with two hundred mounted and two hundred on foot. The total number of volunteers reached eight thousand.

Xiao Cheng heard Tang Qingyan’s response from downstairs, managing an awkward smile. He wasn’t sure if she really didn’t understand or was just pretending. Since she said that, he didn’t push the issue and casually agreed.

After returning to Jiangdong City, Shen Moxuan couldn’t shake off the matter, spending most days quietly sitting on the balcony, reliving every scene from that night. In fact, even in her dreams, she could see that man’s heroic figure and slightly weathered face.

Navigating the routes and starmap of Eirta, he was very familiar with this place. Whether the ship surpassed light speed, Li Zhuang wasn’t sure; he wasn’t a theoretical physics expert, not to mention that whether Earth’s theoretical physics system could explain these phenomena was still up in the air.

Now, in reality, encountering such events and feelings with a man like Su Lin left Qin Yanran in a state of confusion; she felt her understanding and the world had been turned upside down in an instant.

Xie Quanyou firmly believed that if Tang Ruoyun wanted to turn the situation around, she had to bow her head to him, and at that moment, he could take the beauty into his arms.

When Ryan stepped off the ship, the atmosphere inside seemed to freeze. Everyone held their breath; the fourth exam, the game of hunters and the hunted, had begun.

Only time would tell if this Sky Eagle Commander could escape the clutches of an E-class mid-tier mutant beast—it didn’t seem very likely.

Su Jin smiled, stepping closer to Jiang Qingqing, her footsteps felt like they were treading on her heart, like a demon. For some reason, she couldn’t shake off this lingering unease today.

Chi Shuyan didn’t know that she had once had a boyfriend who was quite good-looking but was a gambling addict. Back then, she only cared about appearances; in the end, she lost both money and man, getting beaten by that scumbag countless times.

—This was all thanks to Yuan Zhao being the top divine being; otherwise, he wouldn’t have been able to do Yu Chen’s work.

To eliminate the Ward Pirates, the World Government planned a joint military pirate army comprising naval forces united by fear and hatred of the Ward Pirates, surrounding them abruptly.

At this moment, Chi Shuyan was truly tempted; even before tasting it, the aroma was irresistible. She still kept some modesty, trying to pick up a piece. Upon tasting it, she couldn’t help but sigh; the royal chef truly lived up to his name, unmatched—the flavor was simply divine.

Zhong Xiwang was in the bathroom tidying up her and Zheng Shuguang’s toiletries, and at a kiss from Zheng Shuguang, the towel in her hand fell to the ground as she responded while holding onto his shoulder.

The route Zheng Shuguang took wasn’t to the Zheng family, but to the military district. Zhong Xiwang remembered the route and felt a bit puzzled.

Si Ang didn’t show it on the surface, but his brain was working in overdrive; he looked quite scary with his serious expression.

Fame has always been a good thing, and that’s never changed; no one truly wants to follow a heartless, ungrateful person.
