Chapter 51
"Really? Guards! Seize him! I know the Thousand-Face Thief must have accomplices, and I suspect you are one of them! Singing in tune like this? Who do you think you're fooling?" With a wave of Zeng Yizhang's hand and an order, another batch of guards came forward to detain Kou Qingtong as well.
Liu Qi did not need to expend much effort to reclaim the lost territory, while Zhou Yu and Liu Bei also withdrew their troops.
Who would have thought that just as he rushed in, he would suddenly be flipped backward through the air, as if an invisible hand had grabbed him by the neck from behind.
Had she known she would turn into this, no matter how much she loved her, she should have abandoned her from the very beginning.
Jun Yan naturally understood that Jing Hua was reminding him. He turned back, smiled toward Xie Ran's direction, nodded, and closed his eyes once again to sense the whereabouts of the solitary cloaked man. Since the other party had not made a move yet, they were naturally in no hurry.
The rooms at Auspicious Inn also cost two taels of silver a day, and hot water was supplied around the clock.
Yet he had witnessed with his own eyes Will being knocked to the ground with a single punch by a white-haired old man—truly knocked flat, like a snake with a broken spine or a dog with a broken waist. In front of this white-haired old man, Will had no room for resistance whatsoever, just like a three-year-old child facing a robust adult.
Rolling his body to dodge the energy cannonball, Liu Wuchen's subsequent action left Lin Jianghe dumbfounded.
Xia Shiguang did not say much either. She hurried over to the water dispenser to pour a cup of warm water, went to the television cabinet to get Gu Chen's medicine, and placed them on the coffee table in front of him.
The third batch of people, led by Wang Yi, went to various regions to raise funds, figuring out a way to gather thirty-five million liang of silver.
The final two days passed in the blink of an eye, and today marked the beginning of the three trials. These three trials would truly determine the ownership of the spirit stone vein. With the spirit stone vein, the family occupying it would experience a soaring development. Because of this, the entire Qiu City was filled with a solemn and stern atmosphere.
After a long while, and after spitting out some residue with a "bah," Li Yong turned around on weak legs. Glaring fiercely at Hu Xiaotian, he had already guessed that Hu Xiaotian had deliberately played a trick on him.
"You must hold on, otherwise everything will be ruined." Medicine Fairy's delicate hands were tightly clasped together. At this moment, her heart was also in her throat. She had not expected that Ye Chen would have to endure such immense pain just to enhance his cultivation.
"Old bastard, I've never seen someone as shameless as you! Eldest Imperial Brother is already in poor health, and you're making him act as regent? It would be a wonder if Yao Zhi'an doesn't rebel against the state! And you want to lead a personal expedition? If you want to force this prince to go, just say so, why beat around the bush? If Consort Mother finds out you're going on a personal expedition, she'll stab this prince to death!" Huangfu Mo endured it until he could no longer bear it and blurted out.
"Yeah, Master did a great job, giving that Situ Youcai a severe lesson so he won't be arrogant in the future." Hu Yue was genuinely happy for me. I chuckled sheepishly, maintaining a fine demeanor of keeping a low profile.
It turned out that Wei Yan had not resorted to this desperate measure for personal gain; it was just that, given his usual style, he had not told Zhao Taixu the truth. Perhaps he had his own reasons and motives, possibly intending to give everyone a surprise when the time came.
"Yes, I also want to news of my parents, and my adoptive parents supported me coming here as well." Fu Rou gently nodded.
Whether it was because she was uncomfortable being pressed down by him or because she was moved by his words, her facial expression remained unchanged, yet crystal-clear tears began to well up at the corners of her eyes, starting from her eyelashes and rolling down into her temples.
Standing beneath the City of Water and Sky, I could not help but click my tongue repeatedly. This unique style was truly peerless; by comparison, Chaos City appeared extremely plain and low-key, lacking this dazzling sense of spectacle.
Her knees touched the ground with a dull "thud," and Fang Mengbao instantly felt a sympathetic ache in her own kneecaps.
"Hmph! Naturally, after stripping away his cultivation, I let Xiao Yue clear the knot in his heart!" said the Master of Xiao Sect.
In this way, the entire Independent Regiment consisted of four battalions, two companies, and a regimental headquarters numbering over three thousand men, plus two supplementary battalions of twelve hundred men each, totaling twenty-four hundred. The total strength reached six thousand.
I was startled; he was actually a ranged class. Although surprised, my movements were not slow. The speed of the Mist Shadow Leopard truly lived up to its name, matching the wind. It easily dodged Tuxue's Blood-Weeping Heavenly Flame Slash.
Gongzi Yu's tone was domineering and sharp, expressing his stance. Although he had once been a disciple of the Holy Sword Valley, he had already drawn a clear line and naturally held no affection for the Holy Sword Valley anymore.
After all, the strongest members in our guild right now are just me and Divine Eagle, and adding another one is a good thing.
"Hmph!" Su Rui did not say anything more, but her face did not seem particularly angry. If she were truly angry, how could she possibly sit and eat breakfast with him in peace? She asked who it was that had just called.
This person bore a striking resemblance to Luo Yuntian and was none other than his father, Luo Ping's fourth uncle, Luo Mingyu.
Suddenly, with a deafening crash, golden light flashed across the courtyard, and a giant of a man built like a iron tower rushed out from the right-hand room. Wood chips flew everywhere, bricks and stones scattered, and amidst the billowing dust, the heavily armored giant strode forward, wielding a huge mace that whistled as it smashed down toward the leading man in black.
