Volume One, Chapter 34: The Villainous Siblings in a Dragon-Proud Protagonist Novel, Part 14

"Elder Ye's chronic leg condition is acting up again! Quick, call the doctor!" Shi Yan shouted. All eyes in the hall converged upon Elder Ye once more.

Aunt Tian pulled Tian Jia along, covering the distance to the two elders in a few hurried strides before dropping to her knees with a thud.

To be honest, the restaurant Xu Yun had chosen was quite elegant, perhaps even leaning toward a romantic theme. Upon entering, we immediately spotted a couple kissing passionately, leaving Zhou Yun feeling somewhat embarrassed.

I couldn't help but laugh along. What exactly had he been dreaming about? Just as I was staring at him, he suddenly opened his eyes, sat bolt upright, and habitually wiped the corners of his mouth—fortunately, there was no drool to be found.

It was another full day of battle. Fortunately, the mutant rats were repelled before sunset, though anyone with any sense could see that it looked more like the rats had chosen to withdraw on their own.

The moment Zhou Yun rushed out, the Ancient Sage Emperor, the Imperial Jade Seal, and the Spirit of Mount Tianshan all followed in his footsteps without hesitation. At this moment, Zhou Yun's lineup had reached an unprecedented peak; even if his weakest clone had three heads and six arms, he would undoubtedly be doomed.

Wang Fugui was riding high, his aura even surpassing that of Zhou Yun. Yet, upon seeing Zhou Yun, he remained incredibly polite, offering a stream of congratulations and thanking him for yielding the position. He insisted that such a stroke of luck would never have come his way otherwise, and as a token of gratitude, he handed Zhou Yun a suitcase containing exactly one hundred gold bars.

"Enough." The six men were anxious to speak, but before they could finish their sentences, the Prince cut them off. The six fell deathly silent, not daring to utter another word, their faces betraying a sense of dread.

By the time Song Anran found out, it was far too late. By then, Yang-ge had already become a bona fide hell-raiser, and Yao-ge showed every sign of following in his brother's footsteps to become the next generation's terror.

As for the British, they only needed to relinquish territory in the Far East that they held in little regard anyway. It had never been on the British Empire's menu, so they might as well toss it to those three rabid dogs and let them tear each other apart.

"Wonderful. My persistence was not in vain; I have finally waited for the fated successor. Zhou Yun, our honors and disgraces are now intertwined, and our bloodlines are linked!" The Earth Immortal let out a heavy sigh of relief, as if he had not only fulfilled his mission but had also finally broken free from some invisible cage.

Lin Ai vaguely remembered the time when that fat otaku would naturally warn them about things while just as naturally putting on a skirt.

Ye Tian hurriedly raised his hands in a smiling surrender, promising that he would certainly comply. As everyone was joking around, an orderly walked in and informed Ye Tian that he was needed at the regimental commander's office.

Princess Yuzhen was certain that as long as Ye Zhong invoked the name of the immortal master from overseas—his teacher—he would be invincible, capable of conjuring a mountain of justifications even when he was in the wrong.

She felt she was no longer pure; the image of a man's anatomy had already taken root in her mind.

It is laughable that so many people fail to understand themselves, choosing instead to gaze up at the peaks in ignorance.

As the saying goes, a thief is always haunted by a guilty conscience. Although Yan Shu had not been the one to carry out the deed, he was an insider. He knew that once this matter blew up, the Emperor would surely view everyone in the Great Song, from top to bottom, as his enemy.

To be more precise, it was merely a wisp of their divine consciousness returning to the past, inhabiting the bodies of various ruthless figures and competing for brilliance across the vast expanse of time with the legends of that era.

"I don't know. I don't think she's here." Lin Ai followed his gaze toward the distance and shook her head. Qin Shi Huang... surely she wouldn't be here. After all, as long as she stayed in some unknown location, she could command the battle through the mechanical lifeform network.
