Chapter 27

It is clear that the secret lies in the crossbows used to fire the arrows. The range and power of the opponent's crossbows are formidable, evidently superior to standard ones. Who could they be, and why would they possess such military equipment?

Yesterday, Bao Bao had only ordered a small amount of wine. Though others still approached him to share a drink, they were very polite, and when he gently declined, they did not press the matter further.

Bao Bao listened to the praise with a smile, showing no signs of conceit; he had heard these words so many times that he had become indifferent to them.

After the ten-minute break, the second match began. It seemed as if the EP team's mid-laner had been utterly crushed by Ye Di in the previous game; although the Aurelion Sol was left open, they did not choose it.

"You haven't changed a bit after all these years," Chen Xianzhong said with a smile, his calm voice like a passing breeze.

Of course, this relied on the premise that Liu Bang would exit the Bashu region and the Qin passes as soon as possible to launch an attack on Xiang Yu. Relying solely on Tian Rong did not seem sufficient, nor could it delay Xiang Yu for long. Even with the natural barriers of the Yangtze and Zhe rivers, one could not assume they were safe.

As for the person who conceived of this plan, Hall could only feel admiration; he could not find the words to describe it.

"I am Xu Guoren, Commander of the Zhongrui Brigade! Asada Nobuyuki, I once vowed that I would take your head sooner or later, and today I fulfill that promise! I shall use your life to honor the souls of my thousands of fallen soldiers and my dear brothers! Yield your head!" As soon as Xu Guoren finished speaking, he brought his saber down.

When he reached the door, he realized Yu Qiyuan had locked it. She never used to lock the door, knowing that Wang Lan and Liu Tian would knock before entering, but today she was clearly feeling guilty.

"Tian Qianqian, do you think that just because I am with Dong Sixuan, you can be with Zhou Yuhao forever? Stop dreaming. You will never be able to marry into their family!" Xiao Han’s words grew aggressive.

"Let the servant handle it; Chun Jiao is too short." Su Peisheng, holding a large oiled-paper umbrella, spoke up quickly upon hearing Yinzhen's words.

Seeing the bewildered expressions of Gao Yuanzhi, Luo Gang, and the others, Sun Ya, who was sprawled on Liu Huaiding’s back, could not help but reveal a bitter smile.

Shen Yun’s expression changed abruptly, and he quickly looked up, scanning his surroundings with vigilance. However, the area was packed with people, making it impossible to tell who had been secretly watching him.

Although Sixi knew that Yinzhen was not a foolish master, he understood it was best not to speculate on the master's thoughts.

Within a few minutes, the sky returned to its former clarity, and the bats that had not been killed fled the scene.

Hearing her say this, Ulanara felt relieved. Even after being promoted to a concubine, she remained modest and steady.

However, when it came to actually doing the work, no one was willing to step forward. Because the family was not wealthy and consisted only of a widow and her children, no one wanted to exert much effort for a few copper coins during the New Year.

"Brother!" Qingqing shouted in excitement. When Zhang Wang saw her, he tossed his sword aside and ran to greet her. Xia Weijian, seeing this, used his light-foot skills to dash ahead and reached Qingqing first.

Old Man Tian looked at the young man crouching at the entrance, peering inside. Uncertain of his intentions, he sat back in his favorite recliner, eyes squinting at the newly renovated street in the distance.

If Elder Zheng had been kidnapped by Zheng Tianyou, why would he bring out five hundred million? Was he just shifting money from his left hand to his right for his own amusement?

At that moment, I had no choice, so I braced myself. Even if it were one against two, I could not let Bei Le get involved. His wounds had not yet healed, and if he were injured again, I would never forgive myself.

The team members who had arrived with him simultaneously subdued the powerful bodyguards surrounding the Water-Wading Rat King.

"I won't be afraid if you laugh at me, but at the time, I was incredibly conceited. I believed my talent and strength were extraordinary, and that I was unrivaled among my peers. I looked down on everyone, especially regarding wind-attribute spiritual power."

He continued to explore the secrets of Bai Lingling’s body, his hands kneading her rounded buttocks incessantly.

In the foreseeable future, he would continue to deteriorate until one day he became a monster completely controlled by ambition, just like Wu Manyi, Wang Hao, and Qi Ran.

"How on earth did he manage to sneak into the People's Liberation Army? Is it trendy for the military to recruit eye candy now?" Zong Ming’s sarcasm was even sharper than the Omega girl’s.

After a long time, when it was finally time for dinner, Instructor Mo finally showed mercy and dismissed the unit, allowing everyone to go get their meal.

In order to find Xue'er, the Countess sent out almost everyone in the castle who could be of use.

"Look, if you don't feel comfortable, why don't you leave with us? I'll bring you back in a while. By the way, I'll bring the scimitar with me," Ye Jun said to Rong Yu'er.

He remembered that the man had been carrying a large bag of drinks at the time. With his keen memory, he recalled that the bag bore the logo of the Qianjiafu Supermarket.

The collapsed building disintegrated into flying bricks and billowing dust; the scene was as shocking as if a bomb had been detonated.

My heart immediately leaped with joy, and I knew what to do. I couldn't dodge the talismans, so I stopped trying. As they flew toward me, I popped open the spirit urns one after another.

"He truly has powerful guardians," Lin Wanfeng said with a grave look. Ever since he deduced that Long Ye was a Reincarnator, he knew there must be guardians around him. The transformation Long Ye underwent in this moment of crisis further confirmed his theory.

His eyes glowed with golden light as he scanned the small space, noting that the spiritual energy seeping from the mine wall on his left was denser than in any other direction.

The man grew more excited as he spoke, his face twisted in a crazed expression that was revolting to behold.

In this land of death, besides the six of them, there was only Fu Ziqin. She was more familiar with the Death Forest than they were, and since this bone sword must have been left by the Yin Mountain Demon Emperor, the one summoning it was likely Fu Ziqin, his descendant.

People of Long Hetu's status were powerful and secretive; ordinary people would not recognize him. However, Li Jikang was a rising star in the military, and Li Mingjie was part of the Li family's inner circle, which was why they knew who he was.
