Volume 1, Chapter 52: Huo Wangzhi's Crimes

"A grievance? Hahahaha, what good is telling it, what use is it? Since I've fallen into your hands, just kill me..." The man laughed wildly. "But you will all be hacked to pieces!"
Lin Che frowned.
"We are officers of the Court of Judicial Review, specializing in investigating corruption," Lin Che said.
However, the man laughed even harder, as if he had heard the most ridiculous joke in the world.
"The Court of Judicial Review? What can the Court of Judicial Review possibly do? What the current emperor does, does the Court of Judicial Review dare to utter a word about? The Court of Judicial Review is nothing more than the emperor's dog, loyally guarding its master—how would it ever dare to bring charges against the emperor..."
"What's going on..."
"Who knows, probably a madman..."
"A madman?..."
Never had Long Fei suffered such a devastating defeat. Just half a month ago, she was Lin Feng's cherished, doted-upon confidante and lover.
Xu Ziling's lips curved slightly upward as he reached out and covered her hand. The two of them pushed the cart together, just like any ordinary couple.
Another deafening roar echoed within his body, as if a tsunami had erupted inside his Dantian.
Lin Feng took a deep breath, thinking to himself that he had already been scammed and there was little point in staying. He might as well figure out a way to leave this place first.
Yu Wuming turned his head to look at Vivian and asked in astonishment, "Why?" Vivian smiled without answering.
"An Ran, no matter what, I hope that after you go back this time, you won't tell Yu Musen that you saw me. I only hope... to have a peaceful life." Lin Qianyu forced herself to calm down and took a deep breath.
This was an emergency situation, and Yuan Hua and the others had no idea how to handle it. They were all hiding in a corner, preparing to launch a counterattack against the white fog.
When the Justice League faction players win the siege battle, they will gain all rights to the Skeleton Main City and acquire the Skeleton Main City's unique building, the Skeleton Palace.
As her voice trailed off, she glanced toward the foot of White Stone Mountain, then set off, walking toward higher ground.
"Alright, thanks. We'll contact you for verification again later." Without answering Li Datou's question, the other party directly hung up the phone. Li Datou stood holding the phone in a daze for a long time, then suddenly remembered something and called the switchboard, asking where the previous external call had originated.
Thus, everyone used their respective methods to adjust their conditions to the utmost, preparing to make a big haul within the mineral vein.
"No way. Do you take me for a sow, giving birth in litters? Who said I was going to have children for you? Hmph." A trace of bashfulness appeared on Qi Die's face. Fortunately, it was dark and could not be seen.
Hearing the word "Empress," Wei Zifu realized that this was Empress Chen Jiao from the world-famous story of "housing a golden doll," and she was even more terrified. Wei Zifu hurriedly knelt down, lowering her head to confess her crime.
Beneath the Nine Peaks, people had already felt the oppressive aura and rushed out. Countless individuals gazed up at Xu Chen from the ground, their eyes filled with such reverence that they seemed to regard him as a heavenly deity.
He found that his perception seemed to have failed here; it appeared that the magnetic field of the North Pole was also affecting him, greatly limiting the range he could perceive.
Chongzhen comforted him, "I know your father passed away not long ago, and you were compelled to stay at your post for the sake of the country. Do not let my intentions down." He ordered Ma Yuancheng to bring out silver bullion and python-patterned satin to bestow upon Lu Xiangsheng.
At this rate, it would take them less than two months to elevate their strength entirely to the Second Tier.
Zhan Tiankuang felt it most profoundly; his blade could hardly shake Jiang Handao, and he knew full well Jiang Handao's strength. Yet Xu Chen's ordinary sword strike directly blasted Jiang Handao away. The gap between them was far too stark.
However, the fatigue on her face was hardly feigned. After all, the matters she and Lü Qiuning had been plotting over the past few days were indeed deeply vexing to them both.
Before he could offer any words of comfort, Lan Xing'er had already automatically stopped her tears. That ability to switch states at will left Jun Moxi astounded.
Qin Murong paid her no heed, escorting Ye Yunshui along with their attendant maids and matrons straight into the Chu Fragrance Pavilion.
"Then, if the news of Liu Guang being captured by me reaches your emperor's ears, will he completely lose his chance at contending for the position of crown prince?" Leaning against the side, Li Ming asked leisurely once more.
At the end of the bridge stood a stone urn. Here, they had moved beyond the range of the magma, and it was no longer scorching hot. Straight ahead, irrepressible light beamed through an arched doorway, dazzling enough to briefly blind the eyes. The soil on the ground emitted a faint fragrance, and cool air flowed gently, making one feel very comfortable.
"My name is Utsunomiya Naokawa, a general under the head of the Shimazu clan. Who are you people? Why are you attacking our mountain city?" A burly, dust-covered man with a thick beard stepped forward and demanded of Sasaki.
Before falling asleep, I groggily asked, "Brother, will you never leave me?" Regrettably, before I could hear his answer, I drifted off into a sweet slumber.
It was only that they had hidden far enough away. Yet the current Arboreal Owl was so immense that he now practically represented the power of the entire world. For a towering ancient tree to take a single step forward—how difficult was that, let alone trying to uproot itself?
"What about the fourteenth prince? Is he still following her?" This was Le Chang's greatest worry, and Ye Yunshui had to ask.
Everyone in the family knew that Madame Liao lived very frugally. She carefully saved every single wage and reward she received solely for her future old age, never wasting a single copper coin.
"Did you all get lost and wander in here? Have you not tried to walk out of this place?" I frowned. Matters seemed somewhat suspicious; I only hoped I was just being overly cautious.
"Your elder sister is about to be married, so you should grow closer in ordinary days. Having sisters to help and support each other in the future—that is what makes a family." Seeing Ye Yunshui actively drawing close to Ye Qianru, the old lady was quite pleased.
Ye Nanfeng had never walked the Netherworld Path even once. The only reason he knew of it was from the ancient texts left behind by his predecessors.
Next, we might go to war with the Sakura Legion at any moment. With every high-ranking member lost, the Poison Sect's hope of destruction increased by a fraction.
Of course, Zhang Haotian's method of suppressing his cultivation was not without its benefits; it made his foundation exceptionally profound.
Shi Letong did not look like the kind of person who committed countless evils; instead, he looked rather benevolent, and his speech was courteous as well.
Any man who laid eyes upon this face would instinctively want to cup it in his palms and cherish it.
After Qiuya and Qiuyao made their breakthroughs, they were overjoyed, yet also bewildered by this sudden, drastic upheaval of heaven and earth. The previous thunder vortex had vanished—was it resolved by the Venerable Lord?
The reason Bai Kun was able to unleash an attack just now was primarily because this world's instinct had broken the rules first. Consequently, the moment the rules were automatically broken, Bai Kun was also able to mount a corresponding counterattack. However, as soon as the spirit of this world ceased its actions, Bai Kun was once more bound by the restrictions.
With that, I packed a bundle of clothes and brought along all my belongings—naturally, the Three Pure Ones Transforming Yang Spear was no exception.
"Those are all exaggerated rumors. When he dealt with my senior brother, he had assistance from others. Although the exact details are unknown, this point has already been verified," scoffed Cao Jinlun, a disciple of the Yin-Yang Sect, filled with resentment toward Tang Ye.
Those Onmyoji began bowing once more toward the distant stone tower, while wave after wave of powerful demonic aura surged forth from within the tower.
