Chapter 31
"Why are you acting like two spies meeting in secret?" The voice was a bit too loud, immediately drawing the attention of the warden. Zhou Jielun quickly shut his mouth, his eyes filled with undisguised terror.
Huang Fu thrust his scissors into Iye Ryojiro's thigh. Iye Ryojiro let out a miserable shriek and immediately clutched his leg. Just as he pulled his hand away, Huang Fu's scissors snapped shut, snipping off Iye Ryojiro's manhood.
On the American side, although they did not deploy a massive number of troops, their most advanced stealth bombers took off from a secret base, heading toward Everheart at supersonic speeds.
He was far inferior to Luli in this regard. After being struck senseless, he had no idea whom to attack. Flailing his arms in a futile attempt to defend himself, he was tripped by a low sweep from his opponent. His body collapsed, and his forehead struck a nearby desk, leaving a gash from which blood began to flow.
Being in a middle school, Yang Jiaqian became cautious, unwilling to rashly call for help until she had a clear understanding of the situation.
Ma Jianjun looked at the firewood in his hand, then at the river not far away. With an embarrassed expression, he tossed the firewood aside. Before it even touched the ground, the logs vanished into thin air.
There were still over twenty minutes before work started. Although the main road was smooth, it was rush hour, crowded with people, vehicles, and traffic lights.
"By the way, ask the Demon Insect King if it knows the weakness of the humanoid skeleton insects!" Jiang Fan added.
Kong Xu nodded and picked up the remaining set. Since the host had even prepared the clothing for them, it would be rude to refuse. After washing up and changing into the ethnic attire, they didn't look too bad, though it was a bit gaudy. Still, it was a rare experience.
"Of course, I won't just sit here waiting for them to come and kill me." Lin Yunxuan exhaled softly, a confident smile playing on his lips. He turned and pointed to the other side of the square, where the largest building in the entire town stood—the auction house.
Huo Guang nodded upon hearing this. Indeed, besides Liu Bingyi, Han Zeng was an excellent choice. He was handsome and came from a distinguished family with a heritage that the Huo mansion could never hope to match—even when his older brother, Huo Qubing, was alive, there was still a gap. The more Huo Guang thought about it, the more satisfied he became.
But later, she discovered that ever since returning to Changfeng Mountain, the icy energy sealing her dantian had begun to weaken. So, she quietly and desperately began to erode the seal.
"Your Majesty, once again, order the troops not to enter the fortress zone of Mars and immediately open a dialogue with the Vibhishana to determine their intentions," Roental said again.
The scale of poppy cultivation had expanded more than a hundredfold. As the harvest season arrived, a constant stream of carts was sent to the Western Regions. Liu Ye grew anxious; his manpower was insufficient to process so much raw material. After much deliberation, he decided to ask the imperial court for reinforcements.
It turned out that the shadow puppets summoned by Meng Feixiong were not entirely under his control; they would attack all living things indiscriminately.
Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, and Xia Houdun led their troops across the Iranian Plateau and, arriving ahead of Liu Ye, suddenly surrounded Ecbatana. As the gateway to the capital, Ardashir had stationed a large force within the city. Before Guan Yu and the others could even set up camp, the Persians inside the city surged out, intending to catch the Han army off guard.
Although this world had objects similar to glass, they were extremely expensive. This was because this continent did not focus on industrial development; ordinary people only sought to satisfy their basic needs, while the vast majority of social resources were occupied by cultivators.
Shangguan Youmeng rarely visited the Jiaofang Palace. Having just paid her respects this morning, her return in the afternoon made Xu Pingjun doubt she had no ulterior motive. After dismissing the attendants, she asked, "Youmeng, do you have some urgent matter?" As she spoke, she took her hand and sat down. Ever since that day, the two had indeed become much closer.
Zhu Rongye hid in the darkness, watching the Han army's camp descend into chaos with torches waving wildly. He felt secretly triumphant and let out a sharp whistle. No sooner had the sound died away than countless men and horses in the dark, led by Meng Huo and Lady Zhurong, charged toward the main camp of the Han army.
Later, Feng Yang's carriage met with an accident in the wilderness; attacked by wild beasts, everyone in the caravan was killed.
As soon as Gao Xiang appeared, deafening sounds of gunfire, thunderous explosions, and mechanical roars filled the air, as if he had arrived on some battlefield of a world war. While the group stood in shock, before they could even survey the ground, several beams of light shone upon them, giving them a massive fright.
Shang Yu had never harbored any desire for power. When he first arrived in Chuzhou, he only wanted to open a shop to support his few servants. After becoming the county magistrate, he did not covet a single needle or thread from the people. In fact, he gave away more than half of his monthly salary to the poor in the region—a fact confirmed by Zhu Yuanzhang’s secret agents after multiple investigations.
The ten thousand magic-armored air fighters were divided into ten rows. Under the watchful eyes of Soja and Domy, the first ten fighters surged forward, rapidly gained altitude, and gradually disappeared into the distance. At the same time, the second batch of ten fighters started in perfect unison, sliding along the track before pulling up sharply and charging into the sky.
"Why haven't we seen Jin Niu?" The stifling atmosphere made me feel a bit oppressed; perhaps changing the subject would be better.
Gao Xiang still didn't reply. Huoying looked curiously in the direction of his gaze and was also slightly startled.
"What's wrong? Brother Yagami!" Rock's intuition had already detected the anomaly that flashed across Yagami's face for an instant, so he asked.
"The Blood Wolf Legion reports that the God is seriously injured, but his life is not in danger," the Pigeon Group deacon said.
