Volume 1, Chapter 54: The Sixth-Order Old Beast

Chu Yijiang felt an overwhelming sense of suffocation in his chest. Amidst his melancholy, he realized that he was truly about to lose this son.
Furthermore, since his son was getting married and starting a family of his own, Chu Yijiang's new wife had dealt him a heavy blow, practically trying to finish him off with a single stroke.

This time, 75 soldiers were upgraded, all of them being sword-and-shield infantrymen. As for the archers, because they had just been promoted, the experience gained this time was not yet sufficient for another upgrade. However, they were very close and would be able to level up with just a little more experience.

The tables, stools, scales, and calculators used last year for collecting mushrooms were all still there. Zhang Dongming did not buy new ones; by noon on the third day, he had already moved everything out to the storefront.

As this plasma fire rain came to an end, the plasma beast's health recovered to 38%, and a new round of attacks began once again.

Operating on the basis of alliances, each player alliance was only permitted to send a single player to participate in the bidding, and they also had to pay an admission deposit of 10 gold coins.

Cheng Yan bought a total of five sesame flatbreads. The reason she chose flatbreads was because they were filling and inexpensive—eating just one was enough to satisfy her hunger. If the Cheng family members had wanted a treat and kept two for themselves, the rest would have been left for the others, but not even a single sesame seed was left behind for them.

Yu Shiyong's tall and burning hot body snuggled close to him, currently held tightly in one of his arms.

Zhan Lijue was the first to nod, and the rest found it difficult to say anything more. Third Young Master Long had wanted to establish his authority and reap more benefits, but unfortunately, everything had fallen through at the last minute because of the divine beast incident, leaving him with no choice but to follow along and nod.

In this round of attacks, it appeared at first glance that Terumi Mei had the upper hand, but in less than a second, Fudo Myo-o's hands had all returned to normal.

Zhou Boyi's words were abruptly swallowed back down his throat. With wide-open eyes, he stared in astonishment at the figure before him.

Acting as though they were engaging in some illicit activity, the members of the club wore face masks and handed the manuscript currently in Wei Xiang's possession directly over to him.

Facing this overbearing force from Xiao Ye, the city lord snapped back to reality shortly after his initial shock.

"You've already uprooted all her strongholds around Thousand Islands Lake, yet she hasn't reacted much at all. What kind of sabotage can we even attempt now? Go underwater? The deepest part of Thousand Islands Lake is hundreds of meters deep, and our sect doesn't possess any water-repelling incantations," Ling Suihan said.

At this juncture, the destiny of the traveling imperial court's fleet was no longer something he could control. Stepping back, he knew in his heart that the Emperor must be displeased right now, yet these people were still viewing the Emperor through the lens of impressions from a year ago—such foolishness would surely cost them dearly.

The only thing to worry about was that without his command, Nongyu would be commanding the primary formation for the very first time. Improper commands could lead to chaos, and once chaos ensued, it would give the opposing side an opening to exploit.

As a commander—especially one who commanded a naval force—he actually suffered from motion sickness. If word of this got out, it would undoubtedly come as a shock to everyone.

Ning Meng was left speechless once again. Listening to Ning Dai speak, it always seemed as though logic was entirely on her side, leaving her own side with not a single valid argument.

Though the two brothers had entered the Red Mansion not long ago and were considered newcomers, their strength had surged directly from the bottom tier to the middle ranks, causing their residential floor to rise by twelve levels.

Su Manyan suddenly blurted out those words, leaving the others momentarily stunned as they cast sideways glances at her. Given the gravity of the current situation, how could Su Manyan possibly say something like that?

The State of Chu first fought a massive alliance battle against Qin and Qi at Danyang, resulting in a disastrous defeat for the Chu army. Over seventy Chu generals were captured, eighty thousand Chu soldiers were killed in action, and the Hanzhong Commandery was seized by the State of Qin.

Chen Xu was invited by Tian Feng to his residence. Although Tian Feng, staying within Julu County, had gathered information about the Yellow Turban uprisings through various channels, his intelligence still appeared somewhat one-sided compared to Chen Xu, who had truly experienced those events firsthand.

Turning around, Tang Feng could not help but smile faintly, having already deduced the identity of the young man before him.

Following the sound, he saw a blood-colored figure stepping on a tender branch of an ancient tree not far away. The entire body swayed along with the movement of the branch, as though completely devoid of weight.

After all, before their mutation, the Cosver ground dragons looked completely ordinary and only underwent transformation when subjected to severe stimulation. Was Rody supposed to provoke them one by one? When would he ever finish testing them that way?

A fisherman cried out in panic, scrambling and crawling up to higher ground, pointing a trembling finger at the turbid, slightly rippling surface of the water, utterly incapable of forming a coherent sentence.

A little past nine o'clock, Grandma and Lu Xiaoxiao went over to the sofa to wrap dumplings, telling the others not to help and instructing the three brothers to continue chatting for a bit longer. Tang Feng understood Grandma's concerns, but he was resolute in his decision to help her.

The Priceless Treasure Pavilion truly lived up to its reputation as the premier establishment in Fierce Beast City; powerhouses and adventurers streamed through it endlessly, and even the treasures displayed on the exhibition stands were extraordinary.

As time passed, those agonizing and painful visions finally slowly dissipated. Yin Feng opened his eyes, a smile showing in them as his state of mind was finally restored to perfection.

Ling Feng did not panic in the slightest; instead, a trace of joy appeared on his face. He sensed a familiar aura emanating from the long dragon rolling through the clouds.

Clutching my head, I said in distress, "How am I supposed to explain this?!" Handing a weapon to someone who starts a fight is a grave crime even if you're caught, and given the severity of today's incident, my role as an accomplice seems firmly sealed.

Because of this prevailing momentum, the task of disbanding the border troops along the Guan-Ning-Jin defense line was quietly accomplished.

With a thought in Ye Jiang's mind, the soul sword instantly vanished from his mind, and along with it, a portion of his soul power disappeared as well.

Old Chen pondered for a moment on the other end of the phone before finally saying, "Director Wei, Elder Lin's grandson was just taken away by your Public Security Bureau." With that, he hung up the phone.
