Volume 1, Chapter 47: Beginning the Undercover Mission

Not only were the mighty figures of the various factions in the Northern Courtyard shaken, but the powerful beings on the side of the Three Hegemons also revealed expressions of shock and incomprehension.

Jiang Danxi also knew that the truth was indeed as Zhu Kun had said, which made her feel slightly more at ease. With a cold snort, she flicked her sleeve, sat down, and said no more.

For instance, if you tell them you have money, they will not truly believe you; instead, they will first demand that you demonstrate your wealth, rather than whether your future holds greater potential value.

The air was completely shattered under Man Zhiwei's punch. A wide fissure spread across the ground beneath his fist, racing rapidly toward the direction of Thunder Mountain.

Wang Zha first took the two of them to a nearby clothing store to buy casual outfits and had them change. However, seeing their long, flowing hair fluttering like men disheveled in the wind, making them look somewhat nondescript and awkward, he couldn't help finding it a bit amusing.

Kagawa Yoshiko executed a move called "Fierce Wind and Raging Rain." Her body soared into the air, and her legs lashed out continuously, kicking toward Pentuhai like a violent storm.

Endless golden light diffused, obliterating this expanse of heaven and earth, hovering there like a scorching sun. Although the radiance was blindingly intense, the temperature across the earth was bone-chillingly cold, creating a deeply contradictory sensation.

Imagining herself in such a situation and wondering what the outcome would be, she knew without a doubt that with their meager level of cultivation, even if all of them joined forces to resist, they simply wouldn't be able to stop it and would undoubtedly be hacked to pieces down to the last scrap in the very first instant.

Among those absorbed during this period, including pirates and sailors, some chose to follow the Meng Family Fishing Village. People always make different choices; moving far away from conflicts to pioneer anew is one path, and continuing to follow Zhao Tianyou is equally a choice.

The gaze of the Fierce Demon Son, which had hitherto remained consistently icy, suddenly acquired a hint of solemnity. Even he sensed a dangerous undertone emanating from that iron seal; although it was not yet fatal, it was already enough to make him take it seriously.

"What I want to say is that seizing this opportunity to reshuffle the deck for Caidie is not necessarily a bad thing," Chu Yu replied calmly, his demeanor completely devoid of even the slightest trace of panic.

Among the reporters, one who refused to miss this once-in-a-lifetime spectacular scene raised his camera, utilizing a corner of the windowsill to prepare to take a picture.

However, I am not skilled in politics, and at that moment, I naturally had no idea what was actually happening beneath the surface.

Lu Haofeng did not finish his sentence, swallowing the word "organization" back down; after all, his wife was completely unaware of You Xi's identity.

The sun was already slanting westward, casting its rays upon Yu Yao, and his shadow seemed to stretch toward the river's surface, shimmering faintly amidst the ripples.

You Xi assumed the director was facing some sort of difficulty, which under normal circumstances usually boiled down to issues regarding scheduling and pay.

"Who... gave the order?" Gu Jian panted incessantly, sweeping an angry gaze across the police officers.

"Alright, alright, I have already shown you everything I just ate; I haven't ordered anything new, I've just been drinking juice all along."

Because if Zhu Quan's name was an alias adopted later on, it was very likely that the signature left behind by mistake this time was his true name. One thing that occurred to me was that apart from the attending physician of Liu Fulai back then, who else knew about this Zhu Quan?

"Ten seconds are up. Now we invite the two brides to turn around and find the candies within ten seconds! Timing starts now!" the host encouraged with applause.

This was something even the main avatar of the Annihilation Recaller, the Annihilation Demonic Insect itself, could not accomplish. Of course, the Annihilation Demonic Insect wouldn't be foolish enough to use its physical body to withstand the Maxima Cannon, as it also possessed an energy defensive shield.

"Very well, Elder Qian, since there is nothing wrong with the boats, I will leave them in your care. I have other matters to attend to, so I won't see you off," Shimeng said with a smile after listening to old man Qian's words.

The earth-vein arts of the Grand Void Sect were also strictly forbidden from being passed on to outsiders, but instructing the earth spirits of other families did not fall under the prohibition.

"Well, that is indeed worth a try," Huang Ju said, slightly startled at the words. He then recalled those Great Wall Legion soldiers he had once encountered who held an extreme hatred for the foreign Hu tribes, and a vague feeling arose in his heart that Cai Xu's suggestion might not be entirely impossible.

This indeed seemed to be a good method. After discussing it, Feng Jun and his companion actually decided to do just that. To prevent their spirit beast pouches from being inspected, they left the Tong family siblings outside.

"Speaking of this, think about it once more—do we look very much like this stinking bug in the eyes of the Emperor?" Wang Cheng'en asked.

Yet how could the great system possibly care about the mere grievances of a host? Everything was bound to be handled strictly according to the rules.

The Mountain Sea Giant's fists clenched and smashed downward toward Daofeng. If Daofeng dodged, the Pixiu behind him would suffer a fatal blow. At the same time, the Fiery Wolf Demon of the Radiant Dragon arrived at Daofeng's rear flank, lingering to strike at the opportune moment.

Fortunately, although the opposing leader's martial general had somewhat unexpectedly mobilized the army's martial intent to withstand the dense shower of temporary javelins, the soldiers surrounding him did not display such power afterward.

"Thank you, Sister Chang'e," Palace Qianzhu said, feeling immensely grateful upon seeing that Chang'e was actually bestowing a century of cultivation upon Palace Xuanyue.

As her voice slowly trailed away, the robust man Ersi saw the space in front of him suddenly distort. Accompanied by layers of rippling waves, a pitch-black rift suffused with scorching light abruptly materialized out of thin air before him.

Gao Changgong possessed exceptional eyesight, taking in the enemy's reaction completely and letting a look of disdain flash through his eyes. Upon running to a spot fifty meters away from Jiuligou Village, Gao Changgong abruptly pulled on his reins. All the cavalry behind him did the exact same thing; ten thousand men moved as one, transitioning instantly from extreme motion to absolute stillness.

As piece after piece of ore was excavated by the slaves, a smile that he could not suppress bloomed across Xiao Mo's face. Refining dark steel was no easy task, and Pei Yuanshao had expended a tremendous cost to discover the smelting method. It was just that the efficiency was somewhat low; with the capabilities of the Desolate State, they could produce less than ten catties of dark steel on average per day.

Natasha directly admitted to it, and Zhang Taibai did not feel that S.H.I.E.L.D. acted incorrectly. Had he been the leader of S.H.I.E.L.D., he would have made the exact same decision.

It was entirely normal for talented individuals to possess somewhat eccentric temperaments. In his past life, Xiao Mo had also been someone akin to Ma Jun, so he found Ma Jun's behavior quite easy to understand.

Therefore, to mutants like Yleia and the others who had been safely brought to the Xavier Institute for Gifted Youngsters by Professor Charles and were able to return to a normal life after a series of studies, Professor Charles was like their second-parent, practically granting them a second lease on life.
