Chapter 52

When only the old man and Lear were left, the old man burned the several sheets of letter paper into ashes and took out the final page. There were only two sentences on it: Everything is going smoothly. Also, I have found a suitable agent in Italy and have already sent someone over.

At that very moment, battle cries rose once more as two cavalry units charged onto the scene. Leading them were two formidable generals, namely Zhang He and Gao Lan. Upon learning that generals such as Guan Yu and Zhang Fei were in the vicinity, how could Lu Bu not be alarmed? He hurriedly dispatched a massive army to reinforce them, resulting in a chaotic melee involving hundreds of thousands of troops.

Liang Xiaoying walked unceasingly out of the main gates of Pinghai No. 1 High School. The leaves of the maple trees near the entrance were scattered by the autumn wind, some landing upon her pale cheeks. The evening autumn breeze felt chilly against her body.

However, to her utter surprise, over the course of three days, she had asked nearly thousands of people, yet not a single soul knew of any retired, handsome military officer in this world named Gongsun Yu.

"How do you know that?" Tang Jin had been suspecting whether Hua Yunfei knew he was wearing a couple's watch, and looked at him strangely.

Gongsun Yu frowned slightly, recognizing that this young man was the very same one who had pestered Ye Hongling at Chenshi Yange that day.

"I was thinking..." Tang Jin snapped back to his senses, gave a deliberate cough, and said, "Since you are unwilling to fulfill the transaction with my brother, then return the money to me." He had already thought it through; it would be better to confess it himself, lest Shen Jingjing misunderstand further.

At this, Ye Zilu couldn't help breaking out in a cold sweat. Without another word, he placed his hand on Gao Yue's shoulder, and his spiritual consciousness entered the jade slip as well.

Thomas was once again preempted by Simon, forcing him to swallow back the threat that was already on the tip of his tongue.

From the middle game onward, both sides acted as if by prior agreement. They completely abandoned the unorthodox maneuvering and clever stratagems they had previously indulged in, shifting instead into a grueling contest for territorial control and momentum over the board.

Regarding this pill formula, although Yunyu desired to obtain it desperately, he also knew that he could not push his words too far.

Among the five wondrous peaks of the Divine Stone Sect, each possessed its own set of unique swordsmanship. Crimson Stone Peak specialized in the "Long Rainbow Piercing the Sun" sword technique; Amber Stone Peak in the "Blazing Fire and Golden Sun" sword technique; Azure Stone Peak in the "Dancing Azure River" sword technique; Indigo Stone Peak in the "Dreamlike Blue Luo" sword technique; and Violet Stone Peak in the "Purple Qi Coming from the East" sword technique.

"The descendants left behind by the Xia family since ancient times number less than a thousand. After the erosion of tens of thousands of years, only about five hundred remain now. The rest have reached the end of their lifespans and finally returned to the great abyss," one of the ancestors, who looked somewhat older than the others and wore a sorrowful expression, said.

Meanwhile, the shield beneath Wang Hou's feet crashed heavily onto the ground. The soldier holding the shield had his arms nearly shaken to the point of fracture by Wang Hou's previous bombardment.

Murong Kun was thoroughly perplexed. Though clueless as to what was happening, he obediently placed the steamed bun back into the plate exactly as it was.

Furthermore, following Main Quest Two, Wang Hou had no idea what subsequent quests awaited him. Consuming his spiritual energy so recklessly right at the start was an unwise move.

"Who on earth is it?" Zhongmushao asked the prophet, desperate to know who could have cast such a vicious and ruthless hand upon a newly born infant.

Unawares, a hand rested upon his shoulder. Mu Fengye turned around in astonishment to see a boy wearing the same school uniform as him, flashing a wide smile and extending a thumbs-up.

Upon hearing the entire story, both of them wore expressions of utter shock. Never had they expected that someone who ascended to the Middle Thousand World could descend back down here, and Li Youlin appeared to have arrived in the Mingyang World several hundred years ago.

The area outside the arena suddenly fell silent. After a few seconds, earth-shattering applause erupted. Who could have imagined that a student-like Yang Jian would defeat the renowned Black King, and send him flying four to five meters with a single punch? But immediately afterward, waves of angry curses resounded, because this meant the money they had wagered on the Black King could no longer be recovered.

After gaining an understanding of the situation, Chu Feng and Tieshan felt somewhat helpless. They had already heard beforehand that today's assessment tested talent and comprehension. The evaluation was relatively straightforward: as long as one could ascend the nine-tiered stone steps and stand at the very top, they would pass.

However, seeing Shangguan Xiao's body suddenly go limp, collapsing onto the ground as if every bone and muscle in her body was aching and completely devoid of strength, Lin Xuxian grew anxious.

The sudden appearance of a youth in a dark robe caught Zuo Jun's attention. What struck Zuo Jun was that this person was short in stature, standing only five feet tall, and looked rather youthful, yet Zuo Jun did not dare to lower his guard.

"The content of the match reply has been blocked and requires five thousand Niu coins to unlock." Matsushima Kimi blurted out this sentence out of nowhere.

Cao Peng shared the same sentiment. In truth, he also wanted to leave, but since Vice Mayor Hao was still here, it would truly be a bit embarrassing for him to depart first.

The leader, carrying a black long sword on his back and with eyes brimming with fury, took the lead and strode toward the Demon Summoning Class.

This time, Yang Bian carried two teammates and still defeated the Three Wolves combination, which thoroughly taught him a simple truth: as long as one is strong enough, what does it matter if your teammates are a bit of a drag?

Perhaps such a person was the correct choice for the netherworld—possessing courage and daring, coupled with strategic cunning yet never lacking a sense of righteousness in his heart. Only someone like this could walk further down the path. With the immortal road stretching endlessly ahead, how many could ever hope to see its end?

Feng Yuerong and Qiu Shuang'er both removed their outer garments, supported them with their hands by the campfire, and began drying them.

This lazy demeanor formed a stark contrast with the busy figures of the surrounding disciples, yet this time, not a single person dared to provoke him.

In history, the wars waged by the Aqua Clan sea monsters to annihilate the land races and unify Fenghe had occurred more than once or twice.

The two of them chatting and laughing amiably attracted the attention of quite a few people, seeing as Su Ge was, in a sense, the protagonist of the day.

All in all, she was an excellent helper, a wonderful partner, and even a very good friend.

Even while trapped in a blank state of sensory suspension, Bai Nandi, who had stepped into the True Realm many years ago, possessed a terrifying intuition.

Weng Boying was startled, thinking to himself: Damn it, Crown Prince, you are truly this ruthless, resorting to killing at the slightest disagreement?

This disgusting, unfathomable feeling felt extremely uncomfortable to Malzahar, who was accustomed to foresight and omniscience.

Perhaps everyone had forgotten that Malcol's core setting was that of a computer genius who "almost destroyed the world," while his good buddy Tarmac was a professional master capable of casually assembling motorcycles.
