Volume 1, Chapter 67: The Truth

Although he had indeed managed to escape the imperial capital, why did he feel like these two guys were simply going out of their way to make things difficult for him?

Boom! The giant's attack missed once again, but this time, he lost sight of the opponent entirely.

Early the next morning, Zhong Min boarded a flight to Rongcheng. Just like her, others were similarly embarking on their journeys.

Penalty: If one protected target dies, all rewards are deducted. If all die, the mission fails, resulting in erasure.

This so-called plague was precisely an improved version of Jiang Wangyue's first-generation world-灭世 virus—it should be called the second-generation world-destroying virus—a virus specially developed by Jiang Wangyue targeting the physical constitution of the Fox clan.

On the third day after drinking the Laba porridge, the children held a wooden slip in their hands. The content was a letter written to Chen Jian by someone named Ji Yun, discussing methods to transport ore with the minimum amount of labor.

Cloud Capital was closest to White Capital. The imperial capital was the venue for every World Martial Arts Tournament, which opened around January every three years.

Upon hearing this, Shi Lin furrowed his brow, feeling helpless. Nothing could ever be completely perfect; once a choice was made, there should be no regrets, and it must be executed with unwavering determination. The help he could offer ended here, and his conscience was clear. As for what the future held for those children, it would truly depend on their own fortune.

Eager to clear himself of the adoptive-father-and-son relationship with Liu Fang, Yang Guang returned to the grand hall and, without much effort, coerced Su Yier into revealing the truth—that, just like Xu Ani, he had been coerced by evil ghosts to take the clothes stolen by Xu Ani from outside the gates of the Hongsheng Palace and hang them outside the Linde Hall last night.

Everything sounded entirely true upon a surface reading, but upon closer reflection, every detail proved false. Every name could be found if one searched carefully, yet none of the stories had ever been recorded in history.

Until now, this chilling voice had only been heard and never seen. All Black could do was shout in the direction from which the voice came and remain prepared to adapt to any situation at a moment's notice.

The members of Lamia Scale immediately shifted their targets. To be precise, apart from Erza, everyone else began to surround and attack the Oración Seis, while Mirajane and Carla went after Laxus.

"Yes, but they are not yet complete forms. Next, we need to inject the players' souls into them separately... Oh, wait, it seems they've already been injected." Gan Bai inadvertently noticed that the finger of one of the statues seemed to twitch slightly.

Yiyi was astonished that Liu Chengyan actually cooked for Yeguang, while Yeguang was astonished that Yiyi was astonished that Liu Chengyan cooked for him.

"Come out. You went to such great lengths to trick me here surely not just to play a game of imprisonment." Now that the prey was in the net, the hunter should presumably make an entrance.

Without needing elaboration, Sherlock knew what the Demonic Demon Orb referred to; it should be the pearl traded between Water County and Malandi.

This was nothing unusual, but what surprised Xiayu was that the class of the fellow known as Dragon Rules the World had actually changed. Even after his fourth advancement, his class title should have transitioned from Great Swordsman to Sword Saint; yet now, his class had become [Winter Sword Saint].

"Mother... Mother... Will you refuse to forgive your child until the very end?" Having spoken these words, the two monsters breathed their last.

Besides, what did a few concubines matter? When the time truly came to flee for one's life, wives and children could all be abandoned. In better cases, the whole family traveled together; if only one could be saved, it would definitely be the son; and if truly none could be saved... well, most people naturally felt themselves to be the most important.

Magneto dropped to the ground, waved his large hand, and pieces of scrap metal from the surrounding open space rose into the midair, pointing their sharp tips directly at Lin Tao and the others.

The Abomination let out an angry roar toward the sky, and the towering mountain peak violently exploded, countless fragments of stone scattering in all directions.

Mo Zixin's eyes instantly lit up. With a flick of her hand, she merged the two rays of light into one, and then, alongside Qin Chuan, she descended through the air.

"The Divine Doctor's husband must be a person of astonishing talent and brilliance; if the opportunity arises, I must certainly get to know him." Wu Feng immediately smiled, though there was little warmth in his eyes, and a flash of dark light crossed them.

Liu Ruxi stepped out of the car, with Lin Feng closely following behind her, while vigilantly scanning their surroundings. Should anything go amiss, Lin Feng would strike immediately to ensure Liu Ruxi's safety at the very first moment.

"I will use Earth Release to sneak inside. You must follow closely behind me. Furthermore, once we are inside, even if you see Sasuke, you must not become overly emotional. This is Orochimaru's base, and there are likely many traps and mechanisms. Failing to keep a cool head will simply throw your lives away for nothing," said Yamato.

Cen Yue had lived for so long and had truly never heard of using cavalry to attack a city. Even though the garrison office could not strictly be considered a city, nor was it built with a moat and drawbridge like the fortified manors of aristocratic clans, its courtyard walls were still far taller and sturdier than those of ordinary mansions, not to mention... this was nighttime, and they were taking advantage of the unprepared with a premeditated move.

Xiao Yu frowned imperceptibly, suppressing the anxiety in his heart as he arrived at the Anbei Protectorate, handed his beloved horse over to an attendant, and was led by a guard through a winding maze of turns that in no way resembled the path to the main hall.

"When I grow up, I want to be a soldier, just like Second Brother." Ye San was only ten years old this year. There had actually been two other siblings between him and Ye Second, but both had unfortunately died in infancy.

Shen Yuexi said that the Youyou Ghost Prefecture was not far ahead, so I got out of the sedan chair and prepared to walk the rest of the way. I was worried that formations might have been laid out in these areas, and a moment of carelessness resulting in being trapped would not be ideal.

"My lord, you need not worry. We heard nothing along the way regarding the prefect. I believe the prefect has already escaped and will be quite safe." Seeing Wang Tong looking sullen, his subordinate hurriedly comforted him.

"Director Wu!" The police officers greeted him hastily upon seeing Wu Fan. Wu Fan merely smiled and offered a casual response.

I raised my hand, only to find it felt as heavy as if it were filled with lead; even bending a single finger required a great deal of effort. This kind of sealing technique somewhat resembled the spiritual pressure Master Wuchen had used the other night to shield my grandmother from tribulation.

Tang Can smiled. You old fox have such profound depths; clearly you wanted to strike up a relationship with me, yet you chose to bite back at me first? You want to overwhelm me with sheer presence first—keep dreaming.

Huo Zheng informed the slightly plump old man about Jiang Fan's situation. The old man turned around, surveyed Jiang Fan with turbid eyes, and slowly nodded.
