Chapter 56

At this moment, Chen Piaopiao was completely broken, crying to the point of fainting. The agony in his heart could only be understood by the fox.

Jiang Yu had nearly fallen victim to the assassins of the Heaven-Slaying Sect twice, which forced everyone to be extremely cautious. If the woman was not the true Summoner of the Heavenly Physician, once she got the chance to approach Jiang Yu, the consequences would be unimaginable.

"Hey, come here." Just as Lu Fan was pondering, a loud shout drew his attention.

However, this matter was rather peculiar. Logically speaking, apart from Juyong Pass, Zijing Pass, and Yanmen Pass, which had varying degrees of connection with Emperor Qin Shi Huang...

"Don't bother asking who I am! You just need to know that today is your day of death! You must pay for the crimes you committed back then!" The man's voice rang out once more.

"Then go ahead and give it a try." Li Qing was not angered; instead, he smiled. An opponent who underestimated him suited his plans perfectly.

"This method is painless. It simply involves setting up an illusion array outside the shack to create the illusion of ghosts. If you don't want to learn it, forget it." Shen Tu had never expected the heart-worming poison to backfire, and he wanted to make it up to Leiming.

Hmph! Opposite them, Hua Yuning, who had been motionless all this time, seemed to stir. After a soft groan, her eyelids began to flutter, a sign that she was about to regain consciousness.

"The dead are gone, speak with some kindness." Fu Zhongbiao disdained Wang Yuan's rogue-like attitude and muttered a sharp rebuke under his breath.

"Where are you heading?" Perhaps because his long-pent-up resentment had found an outlet, the hedgehog-like defensive aura that kept others away from the Red-Robed Blade Youth diminished, and he became much calmer, though he was still someone who rarely spoke a word all day.

Right now, the entire cliffside and the surrounding mountains were actually swarming with Qing soldiers. However, the entire cliff was completely covered by lush vegetation, allowing Liu Yihua and Susan to conceal themselves with ease.

With so many police officers suddenly appearing, the troublemakers put on a brave front for a moment before tucking their tails between their legs and fleeing in a panic.

At this point, Yi Haijun paused and stopped talking, which unexpectedly made Chu Tianshu's mind instantly calm down.

"You stayed in the game for three whole days?" After Zhuge Mingxu and the others left, Li Muchen walked over, sat down on the sofa opposite Jiang Feng, a hint of worry on her face as if something was about to happen.

Matsui's originally pale and withered body seemed to have been injected with the essence of life; his skin grew rosy and moist, and his withered muscles gained a measure of strength.

Hearing me say this, the Grand Preceptor felt a chill in his heart. He had never truly figured out this man's personality: judging by his actions, he could be considered as loving the people like his own children, enjoying a fine reputation among the common folk. Yet once angered, the fate of those offenders would invariably be tragic, and this was far from the first time it had happened.

Hearing me put it that way, Feixue and the others finally felt at ease and agreed to my suggestion, for after all, such a life was something they deeply yearned for as well.

"Strange, I can't catch the scent of either Sai in front of me to my left, nor Shikamaru to my right..." Kiba sniffed the air, unable to detect any trace of them.

"She is Liu Ruoxi, the president of Tianyu Group. This time, I came back to accept a mission to protect her." Lin Feng glanced at Liu Ruoxi, who was busy working in the kitchen.

The Prince of Shu felt a jolt in his heart, then shook his head continuously and laughed wryly, "Look at me, preaching to others, yet when I myself encounter such a situation..." He was just as unable to let go of it.

"Then have you ever considered that if the search party passes this time safely, it can only mean we have failed? Besides, if we could think of using the death of the searchers to pinpoint his location, wouldn't he have thought of that?" The Dark Demon.

As Primordial Lord of Heaven hurried back to the Primordial Realm along the path he had come, releasing a wisp of primordial spirit to tear open space and descend into the Earth Immortal Realm, two and a half months had already passed.

The reason I told Principal Wang to hold a meeting for staff with five years of experience or more rather than ten was out of fear that the killer might catch on, so I lowered the threshold. In truth, those staff members with five to ten years of experience were merely there to go through the motions.

"Indeed, this poor monk is the plenipotentiary representative of my Emperor." Tao Minh's current identity was Master Liaokong, an emissary of the Chongzhen Emperor.

Just as his voice fell, the dozens of bolts of lightning in Lu Feng's hand instantly transformed into a majestic and imposing giant battle-axe, which he fiercely brought down upon Moyin Tian.

Ye Sunquan once again felt a turbulent mix of emotions in his chest. Ye Zhan had been promoted to a major and battalion commander, but Ye Sunquan felt none of the joy he had experienced the previous time. The last time he was promoted to platoon leader, he ended up being sent to Annam to fight a brutal war. This time, he was promoted to battalion commander, and he was still being sent to Korea. Where was Korea? Ye Sunquan had no idea at all.

Xu Zhi and Huifeng had not expected the uninvited guest to be such a beautiful young woman. Both of them blushed and fell silent, taking this as an apology for their earlier inadvertent words.

Most crucially, as Pei Fengtong gradually softened his movements, Tang Ziyi no longer had the strength to resist.

His single remark left Qingwei with no way to defend himself. Qingwei opened his mouth, completely at a loss as to where he should begin explaining.

No sooner had the words left his mouth than Chu Tian abruptly opened his mouth, stretching out his neck while unable to utter a sound, resembling a cormorant that had swallowed a large fish and gotten it stuck in its throat.

Heyu opened his eyes in a daze. Gazing at the dark and tranquil surroundings, and recalling everything that had happened during the day, a surge of anger rose in his chest, making him grind his teeth in resentment.

Along the path he had walked, the lingering yin energy had completely dissipated, leaving behind an absolutely safe passage.

However, the situation on the Number 7 battlefield earlier had been extremely perilous, and Xu Qing couldn't afford to take risks. Therefore, he had assigned all transportation vehicles to the various experts and promising martial arts prodigies within the base, sending them off to other safe locations. Even if trouble arose, this would at least preserve a tiny spark of hope.

Another teammate, Wang Chengzhi, suddenly blinked at Lin Manman and motioned toward Pei Zheng.

Suddenly, a breeze laced with a white glow swept past. With a loud "Bang!", the man was sent flying violently, crashing heavily against a tree trunk.

She sensed Ai Ruowei beside her, hearing her steady, even breathing as she remained fast asleep.

"Uh, haha, isn't it because there's nothing much going on, so I just took the chance to relax?" Luke had happened to come down earlier at the same time as Ashizuki, though that guy had been dead asleep in the morning and probably had only just woken up from last night, hehe.

I checked my surroundings to make sure no one was around and quickly followed inside, while Wang Shuai stayed outside to keep watch.

Liang Bing shouted, while Tang Lan seemed to have perceived something, sneering as she looked at Liang Bing.

I said nothing more. Leaving with Shen Jiahhan back then had been an impulse. How old was I then? Around fifteen or sixteen, I suppose.
