Chapter 62

However, what King of Clubs said also made a lot of sense. No matter what, he was only a little over twenty. While his physique might be exceptionally robust compared to an ordinary person, he still could not match mature men in the prime age bracket of twenty-six to thirty-four.

"Isn't this a good thing, though? Our original goal was to let these self-important 'elites' witness the true capabilities of top-tier agents, so they might rein in their arrogance a bit in the future," Candil said with a smile from the side.

Even though Xu Han clearly knew the thrown dagger was aimed straight at him, in a daze, he felt utterly incapable of mustering even a shred of fighting spirit, let alone drawing his sword to counterattack.

"Doing such dangerous things... Good thing nothing went wrong. What on earth were you thinking?" Qiao Muyu asked with a hint of reproach.

"As expected of the Yin-Yang Sect's largest artifact-reforging workshop in the Shannan cultivation world; we've truly stumbled upon a treasure trove this time," exclaimed a cultivator who was well-versed in the history of the ancient Yin-Yang Sect.

Having two such powerful winged flood dragons at their disposal was naturally a wonderful thing. Even among super magical beasts, there were distinctions in rank, and flying super magical beasts were exceptionally rare. Their agility and mobility were simply incomparable to land-based super magical beasts. However, there was no such thing as a free lunch; since the cyan and red winged dragons put it this way, they undoubtedly had their own conditions.

"Even if you had not intervened, I might not have necessarily died. That being said, you saved nearly a thousand commoners, and such a kindness is something I must thank you for," the senior monk said, bowing to the two of them.

As soon as his voice fell, the Purple Sun Sword in his hand began to dance. Thousands upon thousands of sword beams instantly materialized, forming a sky-shielding circular canopy that enveloped Commander Yan and the others, along with himself.

This was Yuan Shikai's first formal speech targeting the People's Party, and he even referred to the People's Party as rebels, which utterly delighted Cen Chunxuan. Under such circumstances, the People's Party would undoubtedly have to turn around and deal with Yuan Shikai. No matter what the outcome was for Yuan Shikai, Hunan would at least be safe for the time being.

Everything seemed to have returned to the right track, and the coalition forces had regained the initiative. Yet, for some reason, Old Tang still felt uneasy.

What remains eternal is the mood of a passerby who, captivated by beauty, halts their steps and smiles in praise.

The garrison orcs behind knew nothing about the patrol unit. Hearing the Sixth Imperial Highness bring it up, they lowered their heads and exchanged silent glances, seemingly wishing to extract some information from their companions.

On the second day of the journey, Bai Xingyan entered a drowsy state. As the days passed, these symptoms became increasingly pronounced with no signs of improvement.

"Taking advantage of a madman, that's truly devoid of virtue," Yan Yu thought to himself while patting Yuanji's back.

As it turned out, there was such a deep-seated origin and worldly entanglement behind this. To put it bluntly, it was yet another contest of strength among Liao Fan, Liao Yuping, and Liao Zhonghai.

"Let go of me! Don't push your luck. The more you act like this, the less I can stand you, you know?" Song Jiujiu glared fiercely at him and pushed him away.

Da Shuang was particularly puzzled. Ever since arriving at the imperial city, the relationship between her master and Princess Bai not only failed to progress, but had instead reached a point of irreconcilable hostility.

Shangshang was not happy at all, as if a duck cooked to perfection had flown away. She had originally intended to solve her mother's problem tonight, because her mother had said that her father was in Shuluosha.

Individuals with extraordinary natural talents indeed leave traces behind. To become an outstanding and highly skilled ghost-catching master requires a destiny ordained by heaven. Only those with unwavering determination can achieve greatness, carrying forward those ancestral arts and benefiting all living beings.

Just as everyone was drinking heartily, no one noticed that Feng Chen suddenly went mad. He picked up his wine cup, flew out of the cave, circled the mountaintop twice, tossed the wine cup aside, and flew straight down the mountain.

During his initial encounter with Mount Dushu, his entry into the Ruins of Guixu, and even back at the Barov Manor, Liu Shengzhi had passively crossed into other dimensions on several occasions.

Before Old Brother Dao could fully react, the henchman standing back-to-back with him simply abandoned him and bolted, shouting hypocritically as he ran.

What more could he do to save Yang Fan's life? A gentle breeze blew, and the curtain of rain underwent a subtle, eerie change. The blade tip, which had already reached the space between Yang Fan's brows, slowly descended and sliced across his shoulder.

After capturing Takamatsu Castle and Shibakaji Castle, Mogami Yoshiaki positioned his main camp on Mount Nagatsuka, northwest of Kanehagi Castle.

"Sigh, that's true as well, but you still should have phrased it more tactfully," Ha Ji-won sighed helplessly and nodded.

Kita Seichi delivered a harsh and nitpicking speech: "Distinguished heads of the secret service agencies, and our Chinese friends, ever since the Greater Japanese Empire entered Shandong, we have received vigorous support from friends in all walks of life in Shandong, especially the Shinmin-kai. They are truly great friends of our Imperial Army."

These hotels were also acquired by Jinlin Catering Group. Following recent upgrades and renovations, they could essentially reach a three- or four-star standard.

"This Shenghuan Hall was built at a later time and is just a very ordinary palace to begin with, so naturally, there is nothing special about it. We have to jump into the ancient well right in the middle to reach our true destination," Ji Ai said with a smile.

Moreover, bringing Natalia along would bring her an additional benefit—the status of a single mother would surely make certain men with psychological cleanliness keep their distance. That man who had tried to force a kiss on her a few months ago had disgusted her to the core.

Li Manman only remembered this matter when Zhao Di came to deliver the cake. When she first met him and greeted him, he had given off an air of reluctance to talk, leading her to believe his family situation was poor and that he was simply in no mood for chat.

Meanwhile, members of the Peng family also began migrating sequentially, seemingly terrified that Li Ye might go back on his word and demote them all to slaves.

Anyway, even if Jiang Lian harbored ill intentions and spread these words, it would merely result in a few more people mocking her and would not change anything.

Hearing this, Zhou Yangbo was immediately startled, realizing that the one million taels of pure silver in his hands would definitely be enough to exchange for ample medicine and food.

Since they had already visited once during the day, they were relatively familiar with the environment. Without delay, they arrived at the mourning hall.

The two of them watched as the giant bird, with a dusty gray furry ball perched on its back, rampaged haphazardly through the courtyard, driving its peers into a frenzy as they began to mimic its erratic behavior.
