Volume One, Chapter 51: You and I Both Know the Truth

This was an entirely unfamiliar experience, a sensation that everything around felt so extraordinary, so uncontrollable, yet so profoundly awe-inspiring.

The boss’s gaze suddenly fell upon her. Tang Xin smiled graciously and nodded, feeling an inexplicable curiosity about how Li Yunshen would respond.

Xia Chaoge muttered sarcastically to herself—obviously, you can’t compare to someone like her, a seasoned player in the game of love, juggling multiple affairs.

At a critical moment, a figure darted past everyone at lightning speed, stretching out a long arm to pull the beauty close, rescuing the almost stumbling princess from embarrassment.

The hour was late. Yang Qing carefully went through the mission and all instructions once more. The main directive was clear: she must not reveal her identity unless her life was in imminent danger.

“I told you, if you want to see me, don’t regret it later,” Xuantong said with a particularly serious expression.

Outside the palace, as the false emperor played his instrument, the imperial guards instantly lost the sparkle in their eyes, raising their weapons robotically and converging on the steps before the sleeping hall. Ziyao frowned, analyzing continuously. Such a technique that controls the mind through music seemed familiar, as if she had seen it somewhere before, but she couldn’t recall immediately.

“Mention it to him, go get the divorce certificate, see what his attitude is,” Bai Jingqing said.

“Try messing with me again, you bastard?” Tang Xin rubbed her aching hand, speaking softly but coldly.

She could not sit idly by; at the very least, she needed to understand what had truly happened... especially since the Xu family was involved. The two families had always cooperated, sharing both glory and misfortune.

Soon after, Tongtian felt the ground tremble beneath him. On the distant plains, massive undead armies began to emerge. Seeing this, the corner of Tongtian’s mouth curled into a slight smile.

At that moment, a graceful figure suddenly flashed beside Luo Hao. Yu Yanran looked coldly at Shan Chen.

Ye Feng explained the customs of the Spring Festival with the simplest words, leaving those primitive people utterly stunned.

This was also Chen Xiaoran, or rather a fragment of Chen Xiaoran. Since returning from the Republic of Youluoke, he had been waiting for his true self. After all, maintaining two souls acting simultaneously was quite exhausting.

Long Jing rushed over hurriedly, helped him lean against the wall, then picked up the money on the ground and entered the elevator, leaving the hotel for the hospital.

However, beside the only visible eyes through the masked cloth, one could see a trace of deeply wrinkled skin, as if scorched by fierce flames.

In fact, according to Number One’s plan, his strategy was not wrong. By winning over people like Mu Chenfeng, and with the incredibly powerful Xianggantian on their side, they certainly had the capability to resist the Dragon Soul and the Martial Alliance. Although difficult at first, perseverance would see them through.

This time, they managed to drive away the evil sorcerers of Southern Yue, avenged Shangguan Wan’er, and unsealed the Monkey of the Twelve Zodiac Divine Beasts. It was certainly a bountiful harvest.

The battle for Yanyun City was costly. Zhu Xiaotian’s power was terrifying, especially with those black-veined flames whose temperature reached a horrifying level. If not for Yanyun City’s Nine-Colored Spirit Link, whose spiritual power was robust and far beyond ordinary, combined with the refining of body and soul through heavenly thunder, winning against Zhu Xiaotian would not have been so easy.

Upon seeing a barrage of hostile glances, Yeyang shrugged innocently, too lazy to pretend. After counting the numbers and confirming that the core blood wolf clan and key branches were all present, he left the camp directly.

At this moment, Jiang Xie was evidently unaware of Hong Mengyao’s thoughts and was simply quite displeased with the Second Prince before him.

When Yeyang and his two companions arrived at the reception hall from the side courtyard, the castle lord’s steward, Pang Bo, was entertaining guests inside. Besides him, three masked figures cloaked in black sat solemnly on wooden chairs. On the nearby tea table, three cups of tea had already gone cold, indicating they had been there for some time.

By rights, the hour of the Ox should have arrived, and the Hou residence ought to have launched their mountain assault. Why then was there no sign of movement?

At first, both sides were merely probing each other, not launching fierce attacks as they might against amateur fighters. After all, one was a professional, the other a near-professional; both were skilled. A single careless move could offer the opponent an opportunity for counterattack.

Such aid was rare, only distributed when people were on the brink of suffocation from hunger, demonstrating how dire the country’s plight truly was.

Just as he prepared to rush out, he suddenly sensed a tremendous aura, as if a colossal prehistoric beast was thundering toward him from afar.

This infuriated Huang Shanzhong. “What’s this nonsense? You’re just an actor, yet you act as if you’re more formidable than the emperor himself?”

Tu Ming simply drew out the Sky-Shattering Blade. With a few swift movements, he separated the altar completely.

It was clear the enemy aimed to use relentless attacks to delay the allied forces. If they could stall until the zombies massively advanced to the fourth stage, it would be extremely advantageous for those zombie rats.

Charles was already on alert. Protected by four close guards, he coldly eyed the man who had suddenly appeared before him.

Toxic substances generally feared metal and fire. Without doubt, Chang Kong Xingyu also knew this. This swift shadow was a Qin Yuan Bird, truly unexpected. Even he had nearly suffered a setback in the shadows, falling victim to its trickery.

Just as Master Tianxuan wanted to ask more, Evil Wind could no longer hold back. In Master Tianxuan’s stunned gaze, he slumped shamelessly onto the nearby stool and poured himself a glass of water with a flick of his hand.
