29. Thank you for supporting the original work.
"It was investigated over a month ago. Intelligence always precedes military action. The reason we recruited you is that our agents discovered you possess good character and have never slaughtered the innocent," Wu Song said.
"Gao Qiu comes from a background of ruffians. Although he has a son named Gao Yanei, he is not his biological child. Furthermore, this non-biological son was slapped by Lu Da. Last year, Gao Qiu gained a new son, barely a year old, whom he treasures beyond measure," Wu Yong remarked.
The old man was deeply astonished, struck by a shock he had never known before. The medical knowledge he had gathered over decades of wandering the world seemed less than a thousandth of what he now witnessed. The profound and cryptic incantations Su Chen was slowly reciting were beyond anything he could ever hope to attain.
"Whoosh!" As the scroll hit the ground, it immediately merged with the earth, transforming into a magic circle. Snowy-white light surged from every line of the formation, weaving and dancing in the air until it coalesced into a dazzling white pillar of light.
The range of the rapid-fire cannon is not vast, but from this position, it can cover the entire Hai-Xin District. Firing from here allows one to strike any point within the district at will.
Listening to Li Dong’s calm tone, the Prince of Qin felt a genuine flicker of hesitation. Truth be told, the Prince of Qin had been wielding power from the shadows all along, solely to help the eldest prince ascend the throne. As for the reason, no one knew; they only knew that the Prince of Qin doted on the eldest prince immensely.
What previously felt like an impossible task now seemed quite achievable, which truly excited him.
Xiahou, Ning Caichen, and the others, including Yan Chixia, were stunned by these words, then left speechless. Damn it, a flying sword as formidable as this was nothing but trash and scrap in his eyes.
That piece of jade was not entirely worthless, however; it actually possessed a few eye-catching qualities.
Zhou Haibin pulled out a thick stack of red banknotes. Honestly, I was green with envy; this was more money than my living expenses for two months.
She collapsed to the ground, her face ash-gray. Even if her eldest brother were to come back from the dead today, it would likely be of no use.
Upon hearing Zhang Lieyang’s reply, He Yingqin nodded with a smile and said, "Lieyang, I have some combat reports here that have just arrived from various regions. Take a look at them first!" Hearing this, Zhang Lieyang took the reports and began to read.
However, leaving things misunderstood is not my style. I frowned and, remaining silent, sat in place pretending to quietly nurse my wounds while carefully savoring the meaning of the demonic incantation I had just heard.
Later on, the jailers stopped coming. A catastrophe had descended upon the planet, and the entire prison had collapsed. Before being buried, he finally swung his blade of light, cleaving through the darkness, and leaped to the surface alone. Looking up, he saw only the once-prosperous Imperial Capital, now scarred, devastated, and withered.
"The most unique thing is our watermelons; eating them makes one feel completely refreshed. Director Zhang has already experienced this characteristic himself," Wu Xiao said, gesturing toward Director Zhang with a smile.
I found it inconvenient to ask Master Youchen whether the Tai Sui would eventually consume my flesh. If I asked, it would reveal that I had been secretly consulting others behind his back, showing a lack of trust in him. That wouldn't be right. In any case, the backlash wouldn't occur for decades, so I was in no rush. I would just enjoy the benefits the Tai Sui brought me for now.
"Nie Weijun is right! I think this plan is feasible!" Lieutenant General Tsuchiguro Jiro, Commander of the 41st Division, said in support.
I followed my master's gaze, but there was nothing there but poplar trees. Just as I was about to ask, he let out a cold, mocking laugh and whispered, "Ignorant vermin, still trying to escape."
I once asked Ge Xiu this question, and his answer at the time was that he admired my courage. Thinking back on it now, that explanation seems rather unreliable.
At this moment, Ruyi was not looking at the spatial node at all, but was quietly watching Zheng Zhong, a complex look flashing in her eyes.
At that time, she still considered herself a pure, unsullied fairy, but unfortunately, through a completely unintended incident, she had felt a man's body and had seen almost all of it.
Amidst the rumbling, not only did the city gates shatter, but the hundred-mile-long city wall was also split in two, with countless massive fissures spreading outward from the point of impact.
The mountain was high but not steep. Before long, the two of them had already reached the halfway point.
Yu Sandao was already being held captive, with a machete pressed against his back. Unable to offer the slightest resistance, he had no choice but to be led away obediently by Wang Ba and the others.
"Alas, second brother, we must not. How can we be so unreasonable as to forcibly seize other people's belongings?" the Bull Demon King said, rising to his feet.
Liu Qingqing smiled and asked, "Isn't Master's residence very well-hidden?" Sima Chengfeng had lived in seclusion for decades without being disturbed, and those who knew his location were few and far between. Being able to hide there for a while would certainly be for the best.
"Of course it counts." Six-Eared Macaque walked over menacingly, his magical power fully stirred. Beads of cold sweat rolled down the forehead of the Buddha of Accomplishment; he knew not whether to resist or submit, so he could only remain frozen in place.
Though she did not understand the situation, she immediately leaped backward, dancing her iron chains into a defensive web to protect her vital points. She felt an incredibly cold, powerful force strike the chains; her chest felt instantly constricted, her internal energy was disrupted, and she began to fall. While still in mid-air, she felt her waist tighten as someone caught her and retreated rapidly.
If you had already sensed a fatal threat from that guy while you were still in the mortal world, why would you choose to attack him now? Shouldn't you have hidden away as quickly as possible?
"So, you want Brother Feng to compete for these spots, enter the tomb, and obtain the Ghost Ganoderma?" Ye Wan'er asked.
As the most prestigious medical institution in the Kingdom of Zhu-Zi, the Imperial Hospital has always been responsible for the health of the King, the consorts, and the ministers. It can be said that they hold great power and influence.
By comparison, since it is so troublesome, it would be better to just find the Great Green Bull within the Green Bull Sect and wipe him out directly.
"And you still dare to say you aren't a member of an evil sect! Even if you weren't one originally, those who associate with evil sects are no good either!" Guan Xuexuan's words were sharp, piercing Zhan Xiao's eyes with every syllable.
"Who's there? Come out!" Yue Luoshuang shouted coldly. She was not worried; in her eyes, this was merely someone delivering themselves to their own death.
Through observation, she could determine that Chu Feng was not old—only in his thirties. Among those of them who were easily dozens or hundreds of years old, he could be considered truly young.
