Volume 1, Chapter 33: Two Children in Three Years

However, Xiao Yuchuan’s men had not anticipated that the Tribal Alliance had ulterior motives; under the pretext of crusading against the Mo clan, their true goal was to seize the border city of Beiming.

Su Ruyue opened the lid designated by Aunt Wang and was quite shocked to find sliced fish inside.

Naturally, in her own words, A-San was not only the righteous party but also the powerful one.

"Sister Yang, I am truly sorry. Let’s do it another time; I’ll treat you to a meal later." Zhou Chen expressed his apologies.

"I didn't intend to hide it from you; I was afraid of frightening you. But since you have already guessed a thing or two, continuing to conceal it now would only lead you to speculate wildly," he said.

Pei Rong immediately grasped the Empress Dowager’s subtext: if any misfortune were to befall Yue Wan in the palace, Consort Hua would inevitably be held responsible. After all, since entering the palace, the only person Yue Wan had met was Consort Hua, making it easy to shift the blame onto her.

Jiang Ling smiled. He did not know where Jiuli came from or why he wanted to help his sister. Perhaps it was truly just a task. But he was also grateful to Jiuli. If not for him, he would never have known the truth in his entire life, and his sister would have remained forever burdened by injustice.

Shu Beifeng was a person with a very serious attitude toward work and a strong sense of punctuality.

A soldier laughed, simultaneously making a display of strength with his arm.

"Going to America?" Xia Qiling widened her eyes as she looked at Chu Mo. Why hadn't she heard Chu Mo mention this before?

In truth, there was no need for much deliberation. Given his current level and equipment, even if he couldn't win, Li Feng was confident he could escape. Without further ado, he shouldered the Blood Rose and walked toward the giant tower.

"Dabai, Chenchen, I’m back." Hearing Leng Ruobing’s voice, Li Bai responded. Because he was frying steak and the heat was just right, he couldn't free his hands to come out.

"Human, you are just like that swordsman from before, killing my kin and leaving me in solitude. You possess an aura similar to his; I will not let you off!" said the monster that descended from the high sky, looking as if it were made of demonic crystal.

"Since you have already let go of the resentment in your heart, then go and see him. You can ask him yourself the questions that remain unresolved!" The one-armed old man spoke in a deep voice. Upon hearing this, Li Xu looked at the old man, and the confusion in his eyes began to fade.

One of the man’s arms had been dismantled, yet he did not make a sound, his teeth tightly clenched. Liu Qitian guessed he must be drenched in cold sweat. The man said, "Don't ask me anything; I won't say a word. Just give up." His tone sounded very firm, as if he would never confess.

"Stop messing around!" Chu Moyan grew displeased due to his anxiety. He stared ahead urgently and, ignoring the tugging of the Nine-Tailed Fox, resolutely headed down the mountain. Seeing that he could not hold Chu Moyan back, the Nine-Tailed Fox jumped in frustration, then looked at the mountain in terror before following him up.

Watching Li Feng’s retreating figure, Yue Xia He Feng finally felt fear. The look in Li Feng’s eyes just now was one that only appeared when one was about to kill. It seemed that Li Feng harbored a deep hatred for those mysterious enemies.

However, Luo Haotian did not continue, while Yuan Ziling said, "Child, I..." Before she could finish, a sob broke out.

In the vacuum of space, blood does not fall but floats near the body after being expelled. Cheng Kong grabbed the RX-97 Meteor Spear he had seized with his left hand, while gripping the handle of the spear that had pierced his head with his right, pulling back violently to detach his head from the spearhead.

Distracted by a vision of the disaster about to befall Zhang Qian, Li Xu did not listen carefully to what she was saying.

"I do not wish to see you right now." Helian Hao gave Wan Yuan a cold glance and turned to walk away.

Lu Manman stared coldly at Mo Xiuyuan, observing his current state and his sudden display of cruelty.

Suddenly, there was a commotion among the commoners, and someone shouted: "The Shu army is killing people! The Shu army is killing people!" Xu Sheng looked up and saw, sure enough, a large cavalry of the Shu-Han army charging out from the city gate, slashing at the straggling civilians. Forced by the Shu army, these people had no choice but to rush toward the Wu military formation outside.

Jiang Yi opened his eyes slowly, staring at the unfamiliar circular ceiling above, lost in thought. He wondered, had he been brought to some strange place again without rhyme or reason?

It was as if the Heavenly Spirit Cave had been waiting for these words from Mu Yun; no sooner had he finished speaking than they were sucked inside.

"What a big deal, making such a fuss about an emergency," I said. Li Ming defended himself, "It was them; they said it was urgent."

"We must state our slogan. Food is the priority of the people; there is nothing wrong with wanting to eat! Let’s take to the streets with banners demanding food."

Perhaps the movement was too strenuous; it caused him to cough twice more, and indeed, there were bloodstains on the corner of his mouth.

As for Prince De, the Prince’s Mansion, and the courtiers of the Crown Prince faction, after hearing Prime Minister Feng’s words, they all wished that the Prime Minister would strike immediately.

After an inspection, just as Dongfang Jin had expected, the man’s legs had both been broken.

I looked up at Mi He standing high above, feeling very sad. "Mi He!" I called out pitifully.

Lin Qingquan sat cross-legged, holding her breath to meditate and adjust her inner energy. Her practice over the past few days had led her to discover another secret of Tiandu City.

Ruo Tian had not transformed into his true form but was dressed in black from head to toe, appearing incredibly sinister and charming. Lin Qingquan’s heart sank; immortals usually changed their clothes according to their whims, and rarely would one choose black, as it was the color of the Demon Realm. Immortals typically appeared in flowing white robes, exuding an ethereal grace.

Receiving the suspicious glances of her followers, Song Qinglan could no longer worry about hiding her affinity for poisons. Survival was paramount for now. She was 120 percent confident that once they left this tower, she could make these men devoted to her again.

In fact, Dean had long anticipated that there must be a legendary-level figure within the Church of Curses. But when a legend truly appeared on the battlefield and demonstrated such immense combat power, Dean still felt immense pressure.

She picked up a large stone nearby, and while the two were looking down, she threw it hard at one of the fat old men, then stood up and began to flee into the distance.

Lin Qingquan was noncommittal; she handed the spoon to him and ran aside to crack melon seeds. It had to be said that this guy, Helian Yu, was quite talented in this regard. After watching just once, he did a decent job, and before long, another mask was produced.
