Chapter 40: Unable to Win Despite Giving Everything

The epic showdown between the number one and number two players on the kill leaderboard has concluded.
The two engaged in an intensely fierce battle, and ultimately, the latter blew a hole through the former's head with a single shot.
["Cold Night Rose" killed "What Business Is It of Yours If I Destroy You"]
As soon as the elimination broadcast appeared, the entire chat lobby immediately began flooding with messages.
[Wind Lamp Messy: ?]
[Husband Ran Away with a Male Lover and Dumped Me for Twenty Million: What did I just see? Can someone explain?]
[Insult me, Kingdom Hero, you have the urge to fuck Li Cuilan until she swells up, you motherfucker, I am the village chief and I haven't even bothered to argue with you, yet you're still fanning the flames. You really don't take the village chief for an official at all.]

Dragon Spirit ran in and rushed straight into the teleportation array of the Sacred Star of Wisdom. Just as he wished, he was successfully transported to the Sanctuary of Wisdom. However, the sanctuary was empty and devoid of anything, save for bare pillars. Everything was pitch black, and even the lighting was extremely dim. At this moment, the Taurus Guardian also appeared by his side.

Didn't Yan Lin plunder a tremendous amount of items while he was alive? Surely he would have stored at least some of them inside his spatial ring. Anyone with a shred of intelligence would find it hard to believe that the ring only contained a few stale steamed buns.

Such a wonderful place, not too far from the urban area either. Living here is naturally far more comfortable than residing in the smog-polluted city center.

The Blazing Flame Stone truly lived up to its reputation as a fire-element primordial stone capable of destroying an entire large meadow, harboring endless and inexhaustible fire-attribute energy.

Although the buildings on Mount Tianyu before his eyes differed from the dilapidated Mount Tianyu he had previously visited, the mountain's contour was still quite easy to distinguish.

In the past, human lives were used as fodder to deal with the Corpse clan in exchange for magical weapons. Now that the Corpse clan had all been wiped out right there, a large quantity of magical weapons could be acquired without losing a single soldier. Who wouldn't be tempted by such a prospect?

Inside a cave, the Vampire Leader, the Bee Queen, and a group of others were surrounding several heavily battered mechas. They were utterly perplexed: how could this pile of scrap metal push their entire Xenomorph army to such a state?

At that moment, the sounds of beating gongs echoed from the opposing camp, and all those fellows scattered in a chaotic rush.

Yet today, Zhang Sanfeng acted completely out of character. After spitting out a few retorts, he raised his palm and struck down with a fatal blow.

"Leave it to me instead. I will kill everyone who has ever bullied you," another Xu Yang said.

Deciding that out of sight was out of mind, he pressed forward. His most crucial task right now was to figure out a way to leave.

Since they had run into each other, Caesar naturally wouldn't let them complete their mission smoothly. If Yura, the emissary, were to die in the Land of Water, Kirigakure would surely find it quite troublesome.

"Hhahahaha, finally dead, haha~" The Poison Scorpion stared at the fallen Green Goblin, a triumphant grin spreading across his battered and disheveled face.

"Get some sleep early; we have to catch a plane tomorrow," Wu Jianguo said, turning around and walking out.

Moreover, they could truly understand Feng Jun's state of mind. Kou Lao's unbridled rampage in Luohua Manor had placed Kunlun in a position of extreme passivity, leaving them unable to stand on moral high ground.

Thunderous roars echoed through the rift valley, filling everyone's ears as if the entire heaven and earth were resonating with him.

He honestly found it hard to wrap his head around it. He had already successfully condensed his elixir core, and was still a long way from forming a nascent soul. No matter how he looked at it, he shouldn't be getting struck by lightning—he maintained quite good relations with the realm and had always been offering tributes to it.

This surge of power erupted completely, causing Yun Tianyang's body to tremble as he could no longer suppress his backward trajectory, shooting away like a cannonball.

"It's also to protect our covert guard personnel, I suppose!" Gao Siqi muttered finally.

Seeing that Wu Shisan was dressed like a country bumpkin in ragged clothes, they naturally took him for a mere rustic at that moment.

Even Ruth, the most prized assassin under his command, was temporarily powerless against that unfamiliar young man.
