Volume 1, Chapter 44: Willing to Cede the Throne to Pei Shang

Xu Jiayao smiled and said, "I just made it in my spare time to pass the hours."

The boy used his hands very slowly to pull the nearby weeds over, carefully concealing the cave entrance, before crawling bit by bit toward the distant cornfield.

Yet, in truth, this was merely an excuse concocted by countless men who fancied themselves "heroes" to shirk responsibility for their own capitulation, degradation, and ruin.

Actually, Li Yunhui had many questions he wanted to ask Cang Yun, but he did not know how to broach the subject. He had no choice but to glance at Hou Jue, who shook his head at him, signaling him to remain silent for the time being. Li Yunhui blinked in acknowledgment.

On both sides of the camp gates stood the Dragon Cavalry Guards on the left and the Tiger Wing Guards on the right. Sabers and spears stood in a grim, intersecting forest, leaving only a path wide enough for a single person to pass through the middle.

Seeing that Lu Junyi had figured things out, Jiang De was overjoyed. After all, at this stage, without Lu Junyi's assistance, the progress of too many matters would slow down significantly. Wang Ming and the others were fine within Neihuang County, but if they were to expand outward, they fell far too short in terms of capability, connections, and prestige.

"Finally breaking through three hundred million popularity points. System, can you give a detailed explanation of this remote hacking function?" Chu Feng asked in his mind.

At this moment, the terrifying aura shattered the heavens and earth, causing ten thousand miles of mountains and rivers to rumble. The Golden-Bodhisattva bore a fierce and menacing expression, driving forward with the heavy momentum of faith-based power, creating a scene of absolute terror.

In an instant, the chaotic space that had just grown calm began to churn violently once more as bloody flames surged upward.

Jiang De did not stop this; he merely offered his thanks. At that moment, Jiang De also received a system notification that he had gained favorability points from Lady Yao.

Inside the spatial tunnel, the Golden Sun Divine Physique's face was deathly pale. It was evident he had relied on some extraordinary method to lead everyone away from Mount Emei.

Yet Lin Yu's action left everyone stunned. What was he doing? Why wrap the chicken in mud? Would anyone actually eat such food if served at a dining table?

Changhai Cargo Agency was a property under Li Tong's maternal grandmother's name, now belonging to Mrs. Zhang. The cargo agency was stacked to the brim with prickly ash from Maochang Firm.

When she woke up, the sound of chattering arguments rang in her ears. Her whole body was soaked, and the slippery, clinging sensation against her skin was deeply uncomfortable. The voices grew louder and sharper by the minute, and her head pounded fiercely.

He was already old, and while Nesta could handle most speed-focused players, against Kaka they still held no advantage whatsoever. Facing Villa and Torres, they similarly possessed no edge.

"Well, I've delivered the message on behalf of Second Uncle." Lady Mo the Sixth clapped her hands with a smile, looking completely relaxed.

Another period of awkward silence followed. The bedroom was deathly quiet, making the sounds from outside exceptionally loud, particularly the roaring of Nishikino Maki's father.

Spirit Magpie gazed intently at the stone tower, unable to see what lay before it. Not to go up would mean losing face for the Spirit Clan; to go up meant walking blindly into whatever trick Demon Ice was playing. Having suffered losses before, he was not about to abandon his wits.

Consequently, over all these years, the Yu family's network extended far beyond the Three Wu region, reaching across the entire southeast. While their connections were intricate, the family descendants had also cultivated a hospitable nature and a fondness for making friends, much like Yu Fu.

However, what worried Tojo Nozomi was that over these past seven days, Minami Kotori and Nishikino Maki had remained reticent and tight-lipped. Not even to a close confidante like Kosaka Honoka did they reveal the slightest hint, leaving everyone in the dark about their true thoughts.

The two had no heart to admire the surrounding scenery; staying a single moment longer meant an extra fraction of danger. St. Lanson was in the middle of a furious rage, and anyone caught by him right now would likely meet a grim death.
