45. Dream

Zheng Zhongxian felt a burst of joy, but it was soon followed by a trace of doubt and unease. Could it really be this easy?

The middle-aged man was none other than Masao Kawabe, commander of the Burmese battlefield. Smiling, Kawabe turned toward Ishihara Matsui and Yasuji Okamura.

Watching the car drive away, a thought suddenly occurred to me: after asking the old man later, I would go home and see my parents. They must be eager to see me too.

A-Shui did not turn around. With his right hand, its tendons severed, he swept backward. The awe-inspiring assassination strike missed its mark.

Still half-believing and half-doubting, she closed the door and changed into a long green dress. After looking herself over from head to toe and finding nothing strange, she finally sighed in relief. The sinister smile of the Immortal Qianyu just before she shut the door still made her shudder with lingering fear.

Shen Ji'en walked over as well. No one knew what he said to the two of them, but Zong Sheng kept his face cold and expressionless.

They had never imagined that someone could appear behind them without making the slightest sound. The two men turned around in alarm and uncertainty.

“Heh heh, I still have one final move left.” As Meng Gang spoke, he threw back his head and let out a long roar. His body abruptly transformed into a gigantic long-nosed elephant, which leaped into the air and crashed down, crushing more than five thousand willing disciples into meat paste.

After entering, Ye Qinghan immediately asked Li He and Yu Piaopiao whether they had any useful information.

The group hurried toward the ambulance by the roadside. The two remaining rescue workers stayed at the scene to watch over the male high school student while waiting for the police.

He hung there just like that. At his feet, the coffin had begun rocking violently. Several times it nearly touched his toes, and for some reason the swings only grew wider.

Dalton gave a slight nod. His deep gaze surveyed the glacial wasteland shrouded in night in the distance, and he silently turned and walked down the stairs.

Unexpectedly, the mysterious card vanished the moment it struck Avalon. And aside from its original radiance, Avalon began emitting a faint black light.

“The force and the height aren’t enough. It probably won’t even reach the rim.” Sun Zhuo knew the instant he released the shot that something was wrong with the three-pointer. It would never go in.

“A calamity a hundred times greater than the Infinite Aeon Tribulation? I don’t dare!” Du Bucheng raised his brows, apparently still hesitating.

Those words echoed again and again in Yuan Sen’s mind. He slapped himself more than a dozen times in succession.

At noon, the Nanhu Road Tunnel had not yet opened to traffic. While eating in the cafeteria, Wang Ge saw a television report about the traffic accident in the tunnel. Police cars and ambulances flashed past on the screen, but the cafeteria was so noisy that he could not make out the reporter’s narration. Straining his ears, Wang Ge listened carefully.

The three of them crouched silently on the crossbeam beneath the eaves. Just as they were about to slide down along the pillar in front of the roof, voices suddenly came from the window beneath the eaves.

For more than a century, Luoyang had seen no warfare. At night, the city gates were usually guarded by only a dozen or twenty men per gate, mostly as a formality, lest some particularly capable bandit climb the walls and enter the city to cause trouble. To see more than a hundred men defending the city with powerful bows and heavy crossbows was unprecedented.

After the mighty figures withdrew their holy thoughts probing Ye Xuan’s soul aura, the Heavenly Dao Saint Sovereign’s eyes flickered as he spoke in a low voice.

Ling’er gave a faint smile, then slowly began to speak. What she said made the pupils of the Azure Lotus Supreme contract and sent a violent tremor through his heart.

At last, a tremendous explosion rang out, and rain began to fall. It was just that the rain was somewhat hot.

Han Ziwo’s first reaction upon seeing that smile was to pull his hand back. His second was to punch him in the face and give him the same eye shape as that national treasure.

Once Han Ziwo came to his senses, Chu Zheng carefully explained everything Lin Baiyi had said when he appeared earlier.

After Xiang Liang plotted the assassination of Yin Tong, he raised an army in Kuaiji and recruited eight thousand local sons as soldiers. Joining forces with Huan Chu, Long Ju, and members of the Xiang clan, he launched a major campaign throughout Kuaiji. Within just a few months, he had recovered the counties of Haiyan, Wucheng, Qiantang, Youquan, and Juzhang, greatly expanding his influence. The Xiang family’s foundation in Kuaiji also gradually stabilized.

Suddenly, the voice of the Annihilator of Lingering Thoughts shattered the silent and slightly oppressive atmosphere. They were all considering the same question: if Divine Silence and the Brotherhood of Loyalty and Righteousness lost this battle, what enormous realignment would it bring to the guild forces across the entire server?

There was no other choice. If they did not leave now, they might never have another opportunity. Liu Yuhan, Mu Wanqing, and Yesterday’s Fireworks understood this perfectly and did not delay any longer. Each urged her mount through the cave entrance, joining Featherfall Sky in holding the entrance.

Although Chen Xiao’s car was parked by the roadside, the streets of Haishi were always busy in the early morning. It was not good to occupy the lane for long. Not only would it obstruct traffic, it would also attract onlookers.

“We seem to have forgotten to ask where He Jing and the siblings Zheng Yuan, Zheng Han, and Zheng Ke are!” Han Ziwo could not sit still and wanted to find He Jing and Zheng Yuan to ask them.

But just as at the beginning, his attacks, fierce as a storm, were once again dodged perfectly by Ye Xiu. During that barrage, his strength was depleted yet again.

If such a terrifying creature truly fled toward them, would they really have any chance of killing it?

But the result left them utterly dumbfounded. The city guards made no move, and the lord’s residence took no action either, as though they had not seen the flying mutant beast circling overhead.

Lin Zetian was somewhat surprised. He had not expected Jiang Huairen to be no slower than himself. In terms of strength, a hundred Jiang Huairens could not compare with him, yet Jiang Huairen’s speed was unexpectedly equal to his. Lin Zetian could not help being astonished.

A pair of black dragon wings churned behind Xu Yang. His half-demon, half-dragon body landed thirty zhang away, shedding most of the opponent’s power.

Earlier, Qin Zhao had thought that buying an ordinary residential building with a larger floor area would be enough. At worst, he could purchase an entire floor and connect the rooms himself later. But just now, Qin Zhao suddenly changed his mind.

Jiang Huairen shook his head. Raising one’s strength significantly in a short period was impossible, and he stopped thinking about the matter. Closing his eyes, Jiang Huairen composed himself and intended to rest for a while.

Wang Aihua was different from his elder brother, Wang Zhonghua. Wang Zhonghua loved power and, even when interfering in the affairs of the Western District, focused only on matters of broad importance. Aside from indulging in wine, women, and pleasure, Wang Aihua liked nothing more than recruiting all kinds of experts.
