Volume One, Chapter 84: Entering the Air Force Base and Meeting the Plagiarist Monster

Caught red-handed stealing illustrations from the original artist, Jiang Yingli couldn’t help but question whether the designers over at the air force base had lost their minds.

With an expressionless face, Master Wang said, “Gather your things. Let’s go see what exactly they want.”

The two had been in conversation for some time, and since Qianfeng had also been at the lower peak for quite a while, they took their leave from Qianye. Qianye did not try to keep them, and by the time Qianfeng left the medicinal garden, dusk had already fallen.

“Heh heh…” Song Ruyu offered an awkward laugh, her lips twitching as she looked at the person lying on the bed, whose face was ashen.

As it turned out, no matter how clever one was, there were always moments of muddle-headedness. Lu Yao hadn’t realized she’d let slip a rather significant revelation: Zhu Wentian had rented a hotel room elsewhere.

The figure before them had an aura so faint it seemed he might vanish at any moment—clearly, this was merely a manifestation of the Eastern Duke’s magical power.

After seeing off the imperial consort, Youzhu asked anxiously. Judging by what had just happened, she truly feared the imperial consort might do something even more extreme.

Though her words were caring, there was an inexplicable chill in them. Murong Qingyu looked at him in distress, but when she met his even colder gaze, she fell silent, picked up her silver chopsticks, and placed the closest piece of spicy boiled beef into her mouth. She had barely begun to chew when a look of pain appeared on her face.

Song Ruyu arched her brow. If she remembered correctly, wasn’t last night’s banquet hosted by the young master of the Liao family?

The burly man wasn’t stupid; after the fat chief’s patient explanation, he finally understood the general situation. He sat down quietly, saying no more.

Zhang Tianyi instructed Zhao Ziliang on how to circumvent the blockhouse and cross the road before returning by boat.

Three new nascent powers had emerged in succession, and within the current marketplace, they were already among the most elite.

Moonshadow herself could see nothing, yet those creatures lurking in the darkness could see her perfectly well.

Wang Meng led the young man into the tent, smiled faintly, and waved him to a seat. The Xiongnu hesitated, then sat down in silence. Wang Meng found his manner somewhat amusing and shook his head with a smile.

Li Feng’s expression grew grave as he sensed the terrifying burst of soul power from the flying eagle overhead. This was a soul spirit, the manifestation of a Soul King-level expert.

They shouted, “We are willing to follow our lord to the death! Fight to the death, fight to the death, fight to the death!” Their words shook the heavens, the force of their conviction impossible for anyone to resist.

Shui Qianqian had already draped the man’s cloak over her shoulders, and the tense atmosphere made her tears dry up without her realizing it.

Zheng Youwei lifted her chin and gestured toward the house. Lu Yang clung to this excuse so stubbornly that she could do nothing about it.

Zheng Youwei’s eyes were red. She might not care about many things, but after following Luo Yu and watching her exhaust herself dealing with the Meng family’s outrageous relatives, she sometimes felt grateful that, though Liu Xin didn’t concern herself with her, at least she wasn’t treated as a possession to be given away at will.

The truth was, she was afraid. If Hua Xiao ever did something drastic for her sake, what would she do?

Since that day, Luo Yu had been painstakingly piecing together everything Li Qing had mentioned. These matters had occurred many years ago, making them extremely difficult to investigate, but it was something that had to be done.

“Government employees as efficient as you are truly rare. When we go to the approval center for a stamp, it often takes several trips,” he remarked with feeling.

“Brother, stop worrying about these things. Right now, your hand is the most important issue. I’ve already sent someone to Jizhou to invite Doctor Li Shizhen. He should arrive at the camp by tomorrow. Let’s hope his miraculous skills can heal your injury,” Cui Dazheng said, his face full of concern.
