Chapter 64

This was not her Mr. Lin, but an agent of the Prince of Zhongshan. He had lurked in the prime minister's estate to tutor her for years, not out of any genuine intent to be her teacher, but with ulterior motives. The assassinations of Lady Cui and Fu Mingzheng were inextricably linked to Mr. Lin.

Having already sustained considerable injuries from her battle with the crystal beasts, she desperately needed proper recuperation. If she were to be injured fighting Mu Yi as well, she would truly be coughing up blood in frustration.

Listening to her mother weeping aloud as she fumbled over her body to check for injuries, while righteously cursing the drug dealers to be carved into a thousand pieces and suffer a wretched death, Zhuang Yi forcefully swallowed back the tears that had welled up in her eyes.

They chatted and explained things all the way as they walked inside. Ever since that fleeting glimpse at the city gates, they had not caught another sight of the Golden Wolf Army, but Zijin and the others paid it no mind. With the three great clans holding down the fort, even Yixie would not dare to casually make a move and harm anyone.

Every year, Yao Qian would fret and harbor resentment toward Lady Hai over this matter. Thus, Zijin believed Lady Hai truly was an eccentric; countless people practically begged for the opportunity, yet she went ahead and pushed it right out the door.

Qian Jiyao narrowed her eyes slightly, the surging fury within them enough to reduce everything to ashes. A cold snort escaped her nose, causing Feng Yue, who sat beside her, to glance over repeatedly.

Though she had heard the tales of Nian Yichen holding the unconscious Su Mi tightly in his arms, the moment she saw the look in the male god's eyes as he gazed at Su Mi—complex though it might be—she could still perceive that the male god held distinct feelings for Su Mi, yet Su Mi greeted him with a cold shoulder.

It was still that very same facial contour; five years of time had failed to dull its sharp edges, remaining just as glaringly beautiful, only that this beauty was now laced with an even heavier undercurrent of viciousness.

In the matches that followed, He Xi, Wu Xin, Jin Yun, and others took the stage one after another, though none of the bouts were particularly breathtaking; they were all standard, middle-of-the-road performances.

Mu Ze originally wanted to ignore her, but seeing her looking so pitiful, he could not bring himself to do it. Unable to help himself, he walked over and offered his waist directly into her hands.

Having drawn the Sun-Wasting True Gold Bow three consecutive times, and using the Profound Essence Cold Iron on the final draw, had he not been cultivating the Ancient God Body-Refining Technique, Ye Tian likely would have already exhausted his vital essence and perished.

Lin Ai was thankful that none of these mechanical lifeforms possessed brains. If Adam and Eve—the two who still had some wits about them—had come to command the battle, the aircraft carrier beneath them would have sacrificed itself long ago.

Rolling and taking cover were second nature to the two of them; aside from the whistling wind, they made not the slightest commotion.

On the third day of Xiao Mei'er's arrival at Tongliang Mountain, Ye Chong took her to tour another testing site.

After the Allied Forces crushed the valiant Capital Garrison, the final resistance forces on the Federation's cradle world collapsed along with it, reducing the planet entirely to occupied territory. Aside from the remnants hailing from the continent of Arad, looking across the entire planet, no force dared to oppose the glorious Allied Legion any longer.

The golden light gradually dissipated, revealing an old man in golden robes. A smile lingered at the corner of his mouth, his eyes sparkling with a emerald green hue. With his hands clasped behind his back, there was virtually no fluctuation of spiritual aura emanating from his body.

A high-powered military vehicle barreled in aggressively. Seeing a police officer signaling them to stop, a soldier wore a wicked grin as he pointed his automatic rifle directly at the sky and pulled the trigger. The deafening gunshot startled the policemen, whose daily duties usually extended no further than maintaining public order, causing them to instinctively scramble for cover and hide themselves.

A finger wreathed in flowing radiance gently tapped against Zhuo Bicheng's glabella. Frigid chill permeated the air as internal energy surged and destructive vibrations rippled outward, instantly slaying Zhuo Bicheng of the Zhuo clan on the spot.

His younger sister was enduring excruciating pain, yet he was helpless, able to do nothing but watch with his own eyes.

Though still a newcomer to the jianghu, he had already engaged in numerous skirmishes. Hearing the fierce whistling of the wind, he didn't waste a word and immediately dropped into a tactical roll.

With Zhao Yishan stepping forward, You Xuyong was naturally more than pleased. He took a step back, leaving ample space for Zhao Yishan to make his move.

Kairgen perhaps felt he had played with these humans long enough. He suddenly whipped his wings violently, kicking up a fierce gale, and a glowing magical array materialized in his right hand.

With this alchemy furnace, his success rate in refining the Nine-Turn Heart-Supplementing Pill for his younger sister in the future would increase significantly.

On the rooftop, Du Youjia leaned against the railing in a daze, seemingly staring into nothingness. She was in a state of utter turmoil right now, unsure of how to make her choice. Why was it that human beings always had to endlessly make choices? Life underwent earth-shattering changes amidst these very choices; thinking of this, Du Youjia could not help but feel a twinge of emotion.

"In my opinion, this battle should be declared a draw." Before Lu Heng could speak, Xie Zhiyuan chimed in first.

The Orcs were startled by the dwarves who suddenly rushed out. They had no idea what was happening on the inside, but if the dwarves could appear here at this moment, it meant the twenty thousand Orcs inside had failed. Only after their defeat could the dwarves possibly break out.

"It is necessary, very necessary!" As Zhao Yishan uttered these words, he had already unleashed a blade of fire, sending it flying toward the pistil of the ice lotus.

Zhao Yishan thought to himself that if they handed over the Primordial Crystals to these people, they truly would be suckers. How could they ever show their faces in the Myriad Star Basin again?

That fatty Zhang Bao was a living example; ever since he latched onto Xu Dashan, he had successfully escaped singlehood in just one short week.

Within the dark star domain, patches of stellar ruins dotted the void, with countless shattered heavenly bodies drifting aimlessly. A faint, terrifying aura of destruction still lingered throughout the realm.

Upon following Gao Ke back into the familiar interrogation room, through the soundproof door, Ding Yang could already hear a furious, exasperated voice coming from inside.

The good news, however, was that they were not entirely without trump cards on their side. When entering the tower, Saxes had kept his guard up; while acting as the guide ahead, he had not handed the map marked with safe routes over to the two of them. Therefore, without their assistance, Rob and his companions likely had no way to leave this place either.

Meanwhile, a spatial corridor opened within the formations aboard the cosmic ship, allowing the two of them to step directly inside.

In the outer realms, countless powerful cultivators stared at the ancient tower soaring out of the Eastern Wastelands, unable to suppress gasps of disbelief.

Wherever it passed, all living things were obliterated. The disciples of the Peerless City bore the brunt of the assault; under the impact of the water droplets, their bodies completely burst into bloody mist, leaving not even a single intact corpse behind. One could only imagine the horrifying force contained within those droplets.

Yet, as a result, the mutual suspicions that had always existed between the two factions immediately flared up. Whenever one side gained an absolute advantage and could inflict severe damage on the embryonic imperial pill, the other side would step in to obstruct them, plunging the situation right back into a frustrating deadlock.

Yet Alex acted as if he hadn't heard a word they said, sitting unmoved in his original seat. No, to be precise, upon hearing Rob issue an order for his eviction, a look that seemed to say "I knew it would turn out this way" appeared on his face.
