027. [Branch S-02]

In a short while, the three of them had already stepped outside the mountain gate. Since everyone else had already descended, and the hidden passages on the mountain had been leveled by explosions, they walked downward with ease and confidence until they reached the foot of the mountain.

Su Cheng’s entire body ached from the beating, especially the area three inches below her navel. Having heard her father declare that the Su family estate would not be left to her and her son, she felt a sense of resentment toward him, so she did not speak up for him, and Erzhuzi was even less likely to do so.

As for Zhao Erniang, the girl had completely forgotten the favor he had done for her in finding her work and arranging her lodging in the first place.

Once the blind cat on the millstone had been warmed and softened by the sunlight, Zhuzi brought over half a bowl of water.

Therefore, as soon as she left Ruan Mufeng’s room, she strode back to her own, rummaging through boxes and cabinets to find the silver notes she had hidden away.

Listening to the commotion right in front of him, the Crown Prince narrowed his eyes. Seeing the Empress’s face twisted with rage, he quickly squeezed them shut.

After the three main components were assembled, Ling Feng took the data cable from the box and connected it to the monitor.

After a moment of silence, Liu Chuang spoke to Rui Mengmeng and He Weilan; after all, he could not let them feel disappointed.

"Damn it, this feeling of having a selfless heart and an expansive world is truly great!" Ma Qianli sighed with emotion.

Watching Junior Brother Chen getting beaten from afar, Que Deren cursed under his breath, "Idiot!" but he did not take any action for the time being.

Gu Yi gave a slight smile and said, "Alright, let's make haste." He then exchanged a look with Boss Zhao, who understood immediately and began scanning the surroundings, ready to slip away at any moment.

Wu Yue nodded and said, "That is how it is. National policies are shifting, and the country is fully encouraging economic development. Individual entrepreneurship is the trend of the times."

Approaching 4:50 PM, the venue was packed with spectators, and the commentators had already begun reading the advertisements for their sponsor, Sprite.

Within her own body, let alone a mere leader of the Styx Sect, even if a Saint were to arrive, the Ancestral Witch Houtu would have no fear whatsoever.

Conan did not even think; he immediately ran over, spreading his arms to block Mouri Ran like a temple guardian.

Wu Yue’s current strength did not allow her to do that, so for now, she could only see if there were any suitable products from Zhan Song and try her hand at being a middleman.

Before she could finish her sentence, her mouth was struck heavily by something foul-smelling. Her lips and teeth collided, breaking the skin, and tears of pain welled up instantly.

Deep, charming phoenix eyes, a refined and high-bridged nose, and stern, cold, and distant corners of the mouth—he possessed a powerful aura that kept strangers at a distance. Even without makeup, he held up under any lens, and paired with a long, slender neck with fluid lines, his handsome appearance could not be hidden from any angle.

Through the glass window, she saw her own body lying on the operating table, and her consciousness was also trapped there.

Beside Fang Yu, Zhang Chao watched as Fang Yu continuously gifted one rocket after another, his entire body trembling with excitement.

Guan Mingyu also snapped back to reality. Unable to control himself any longer, his internal energy erupted, and the sound of thunder and rain emerged from the void. His figure vanished in the blink of an eye as his hand reached out to grab Qiu Chan’s blade.

If it were a year ago, Zhao Ping'an would never have imagined that he would one day step foot here, let alone be chauffeured in a private car.

After a pause, he remembered that Tian Jia had not mobilized the army at all. Moreover, for the past few months, and even these last few days, neither the Qi army commander Kuang Zhang nor Tian Jia had shown any intention of leaving their camp. For months on end, the Qi army had grown lax.

Tianhai Pass was one of the nine great frontier passes and served as the boundary between the Central Plains and the Four Wilds. Currently, there were only two demonic sects in the heart of the Central Plains, while the rest were far away in the border provinces, backed by the Four Wilds.

Afterward, the King of Zhao prepared a pot of warm wine in a side hall of the palace and drank alone.

Some of the soldiers hung their heads, some had faces filled with defiance, and others looked unimpressed... there were all sorts of expressions and thoughts.

"This..." The King of Yue felt a headache at the mere thought of Guangling City. Back when Tang Mei was around, the State of Yue had attacked Guangling many times, but with its high walls and deep moats, every attempt ended in bloodshed without shaking the city in the slightest. The Yue army had proven the strength of Guangling with their own blood.

"Let me see the surveillance!" Fury said, leaning toward the screen. As the footage appeared, Fury stroked his chin, looked at the two cars on the screen, and frowned.

His predecessor had never encountered these things, so he had assumed them to be taken for granted, never expecting that he had nearly exposed the power of his cultivation technique.

The State of Qi dispatched two hundred thousand troops, Zhao fifty thousand, Wei twenty thousand, Han twenty thousand, Yan twenty thousand, and the states of Lu and Wei sent fifty thousand; a combined force of three hundred and fifty thousand troops from various nations united to attack the State of Song.

He also recognized him—it was Mike, the man who had approached him as an Interpol agent and given him the Changbai Mountain mission.

She also wanted to keep pretending to be weak and kind in front of Nalan Chen, but whenever she saw Luo Qi, she couldn't help but feel enraged.

Xue Yihuai called Bai Yiming back, but Bai Yiming had already entered the interrogation room and missed the call. Rong Yunxi relayed his exact words, and Xue Yihuai did not think much of it.

"Get up!" I suddenly shouted, scaring the village chief awake. He sat up abruptly, looking completely bewildered.

Xiao Luo stepped forward, wanting to approach the spirit stone, but as he reached out, before he could touch it, the stone emitted a burst of white light that repelled him.

Ao Lie was surprised. He had thought that both Wu Kong and Jin Chanzi had overlooked it and that only he had discovered the clues behind the imperial decree. He had been feeling a bit smug, but he hadn't expected Wu Kong to say such a thing.

Before long, the Soul-Devouring Bell scattered all four leopard heads. "Come here," I said.

Just like last night, Liang Ye sat on the sofa, while Xiao Xiao walked out carrying two cups of honey water.

Everyone was looking forward to the upcoming trip to England. Zhou Yuying and Tang Hao had never been to England, and Lei Yu hadn't been in a long time.

If the previous dangers were accidents, this one clearly was not. He Niannian’s social circle was extremely simple; who would want to kill her like this? If they weren't targeting her, then it could only be him! No matter what, he had to find the killer.
