Chapter Twenty-Eight: Madam Fu

With a new pet, Wang Heng’s daily routine now included an extra task: feeding the bunny. Of course, “feeding” simply meant the servants washed the rabbit clean and presented it before her. Wang Heng would then lavish affection on the spotless, adorable little creature, petting it to her heart’s content. Bai Zhi would hand over freshly washed greens, which Wang Heng would “personally” feed to the little bunny.

Wang Heng had no idea that such a snowy white rabbit could make a mess, dart about, and cause mischief.

Before her, she saw rows of youthful faces, their eyes brimming with unyielding resolve. Gazing at these young soldiers, the next generation growing strong, Li Jinnian stood before them. Slowly, he raised his hand in salute to the servicemen who brought honor to the nation.

Senior 8823’s Hairstyle Card: Use this, and you’ll instantly have a hairstyle so dazzling it’s explosive. Yet even so, Gu Xi couldn’t bear to buy it; one and a half yuan, spent frugally, would be enough to feed her for several meals.

The world is vast, and meeting someone whom you love and who loves you is no easy thing. Life is only so long; the step you hesitate to take now may become a regret for a lifetime.

Gui Xiang moved to step forward, but Wei Shengyu caught her wrist, shaking his head. Gui Xiang frowned, retreated, and slipped her arm around Aunt Ah Shan’s shoulders, in case the older woman’s legs gave way.

“Xizhe, you’re here.” Gu Qian was over fifty, but even after an illness, he looked barely over forty. His features were gentle, his voice warm.

Then, seeing the captain’s usually impassive face now even darker and more intimidating, the others fell silent.

The two worked wordlessly, seemingly in quiet harmony. From time to time, Wei Chunxiu nursed a grudge against Wang Guixiang, but Wang Guixiang paid it no mind. There was simply too much to be done to waste any energy.

The black smoke had long since vanished, yet Tao Bao was still cursing. Even after venting, he was unsatisfied—one slap and the King Yama’s sofa was smashed to pieces.

At the same time, a black palm print appeared before the old man, striking toward him. The elder waved his own hand, conjuring a palm print just as large. The two collided with a tremendous force that sent shockwaves through the air. The Heaven-Splitting Sword remained upright before the old man, absorbing the brunt of the blast.

On the other side, Bi Anmo was just as puzzled by his elder brother Bi Qianmo’s decision to arrange a meeting with Ming Wei.

“I’m fine, don’t worry, Dad.” Lin Bixiao had long since grown accustomed to sharing only good news and not her troubles with her father.

Though both the Blade Path and the Ancient Void Path ranked among the top ten ways, the Blade Path had made no progress, while the Ancient Void Path had advanced by leaps and bounds.

It was precisely this corridor, half bathed in light and half shrouded in darkness, that became the spark that would destroy the entire Central Cosmos: the Cycle of Extremes.

Just as Meng Batian was wildly absorbing the spiritual energy enveloping the Black Obsidian Dragon, a thunderous roar erupted from within him. Unable to help himself, Meng Batian threw back his head and howled at the sky, letting the surging spiritual force pour out in torrents.

“It’s simple. Stick these invisibility charms on yourself and they won’t be able to see you. Then, while you have the chance, slip the Universe Pouch over their heads. Go ahead—do it boldly. I’ll cover you from behind,” Grandmaster Bodhi said loudly.

I wanted to pinch myself, to say this must be a dream—surely it was just a dream. What were the chances? Even though the American city on my delayed flight had the same name as the place Sir Chen was headed, I still believed fate wouldn’t play such tricks on us.

Just as Ye Tian had said, within the current Martial Alliance, the Gate of Heaven’s fighters were numerous and formidable. Yet because of this, they tended to underestimate the Black Hole Clan, seeing retreat as the ultimate disgrace.

The outstanding newcomers of this generation stood upon the battlefield alongside seasoned veterans, their brilliance undimmed—indeed, their youthful vigor made them even more dazzling, unstoppable in their momentum.
