Volume 1, Chapter 66: 066

Wang Yi went with Princess Changle to pay his respects to the Grand Emperor Li Yuan, receiving numerous bounties from him, which were almost squandered away within a single day.

First, the opponent had long been aware of their arrival and had thus prepared in advance. Second, this person's strength was formidable enough to detect the arrival of anyone at all.

"I am so sorry!" Namikaze Minato sat across from Caesar, looking somewhat embarrassed as he said, "I was the one who asked to meet you, yet I still kept you waiting here!" At the same time, he cleverly steered away from the other's topic.

Su Wanqin knew that Granny Yan must be paying close attention to the fierce battle unfolding in the sky. After all, looking out from here, the situation above was equally clear to the eye.

It was far better to work diligently in the company, enjoying freedom and earning money, and with a bit of luck, having an endless stream of beauties to pursue.

Su Che naturally knew that no one was a fool; there must be some underlying reasons at work that he could not yet comprehend.

"Brother Binwang, absolutely not!" Wang Yi was startled. How could Ma Zhou even think of wading into such muddy waters?

Leng Kuang glanced sideways at the electromagnetic door, his face turning dark as he averted his gaze, looking as though he never wanted to lay eyes on it a second time.

At that very moment, he also saw the surrounding void seem to churn, shattering uncontrollably like pane glass.

Compared to the territory governed by Yun Tianyang, their region was vastly inferior in distance and scale.

Cun Qi was naturally unwilling to sacrifice such an excellent troop. Having commanded countless forces throughout his life, this was the first time he had led such fine soldiers, and he certainly was not going to throw their lives away trying to fill the bottomless pit that was Shuozhou City.

That posture was completely equivalent to someone driving a car decades later and looking down on someone riding an electric bicycle. Yet within just two days, Li Ziyuan found himself in a state of utter misery. This thing was simply too heavy; a single rifle weighed as much as two Hanyang-style rifles combined. Its close-combat firepower was comparable to a light machine gun, but its weight was just as burdensome.

How could he possibly know what Fu Can had experienced over the past two months? Having neutralized the accumulated heat of the Black Iron Xuan Snake's gallbladder within his body, his internal energy was already comparable to that of a Grandmaster. Afterward, he had absorbed the millennium-old baleful Qi accumulated in the Weapon Graveyard of Emperor Qin Shi Huang's Mausoleum, cleansed himself of karmic ties, and endured the agony of profound grief, which allowed him to leap two tiers consecutively.

Shangguan Zisu leaned against Lin Meimian, gently bumping her shoulder against Lin Meimian's, and said, "There is no need for thanks or apologies between us. You know, my greatest fortune was having you by my side during my most difficult times, truly." So how could I ever hurt someone cherished in your heart?

She forced her numb nerves to hold on, every single syllable sounding as though it were forcibly squeezed out from between her stiff lips and teeth.

"Big brother, do not be anxious. Since Brother Jin is not certain, let us reconsider and discuss this thoroughly from a long-term perspective!" Wu Gang, on the contrary, felt a surge of secret joy.

Although Huai Yuanliang was a soldier and duty-bound to obey orders, he knew even better how to be grateful; it had been just the same when he first followed Chen Cheng.

The other three major islands were the Overlord Island of the due east, the Nether Abyss Island of the due south, and the Incense-Burning Island of the due north.

Lolita stared blankly ahead, deeply aware that just one meter away lay the gates of the paradise she had dreamed of. Yet just as she was about to step through that door, a sudden chill pierced her chest.

However, with Ding Huo present, the Dark Legion's routine raid was bound to vanish into nothingness.

She knew that Jiang Ciun was grieving just as much, only he had never been one to easily display his emotions, always burying his feelings deep within his heart.

Chen Qi's thoughts spun, but he only received a slightly dissatisfied response from the Yuewang Sword; neither the Golden Thread Garment nor the black sphere showed any reaction.

Though she said this, Chuyue found it somewhat difficult to voice. After all, having lived two lifetimes, she had never called anyone husband, and for a moment she hesitated, unable to bring herself to say it.

"That's hardly certain, Gu Bao'er. Are you so sure he will definitely like you? That he can't live without you?" Shi Jiaxin asked, lifting her chin.

Yao Luoxi had originally thought victory was within her grasp, never expecting Li Dalong's medicinal pill to be so miraculous. Moreover, this was something Li Dalong had deduced entirely through his own deductive abilities, leaving her filled with immense admiration.

Though she knew the fool was spouting nonsense, leaning against Wen Shang's warmth, Chuyue inexplicably felt a sense of safety.

"Hehe, brother truly has a discerning eye. I can see that your cultivation is hard to fathom, and I presume your strength is not weak. Why don't we team up when the time comes so we can look out for each other? My name is Ge Jiuzwei." The sharp-nosed, monkey-faced middleman extended his hand with a bright, cunning gleam in his eyes.

Yet Ning Baoxin could not bring herself to be happy. She was leaving the capital on the fifteenth, and there were still many matters to handle in the city. Only after finishing them in a rush could she leave with Qin Ke in peace.

As for what should become of Shen Ying in the future, neither Rong Tang nor Qin Yang had ever bothered to consider it on behalf of Lord Shen. If his own biological father, Grand Councilor Shen, didn't care, why should two outsiders bother?

My peripheral vision caught Qingdai. If Qingdai were to fall as well, we truly might fail this mission.

Jiang Liedao said, "Otherwise, I will kill her." Having said this without granting even the briefest respite, he pinned the Phantom Shadow Sword into the ground, flipped his hand to reveal a dagger, and thrust it toward Nangong Xue's abdomen.

The two silently gazed at each other, seeing a depth of sincerity in each other's eyes. At this moment, silence surpassed sound; a thousand words were contained entirely within the unspoken space.

Compared to the ill-intentioned people of Ruisilang, Changlie's casual lack of discipline was truly not worth mentioning.

Just as she poked her head out to look for the next hiding spot, the sound of Jiayu falling echoed from outside.

Chasing down from the stilted wooden building was a group of burly men in green robes. At their lead was a Buddhist monk dressed in black.

According to Han Lang's predictions, Manshan was very likely to enter the so-called middle-tier realms, or perhaps even the high-tier realms, while Dong Ze and Dulang were impossible to predict. Han Lang could not help feeling a trace of anxiety.
