36 Remorse

The Tiger Pounce Technique had been brought to perfection by Qiongqi. At the instant it lunged, Li Ling was dazed for a moment, his will to resist slipping away.

“When Uncle Siping was teaching me martial arts, he would beat me from behind and tell me to run! Damn it, how could I possibly outrun him? So most of the time, I just kept taking his blows until every muscle in my body ached.” Li Changan gave a bitter smile.

Hearing the voice, Qiao Yi instinctively lifted her face, only to find herself looking at Lu Linjie’s stern features.

They entered the mausoleum, every step carrying them through memories. The murals were still vivid, and the mechanisms just as ingenious, but every danger had become a thing of the past. Now, this was a safe sanctuary, open for study and admiration.

Bante raised a hand. The ground beneath Steve swelled upward, and an inverted-pyramid platform lifted him and began moving.

Naturally, Kingpin would never tell these lackeys that his true objective was the Super-Soldier Serum. If word got out and the ninjas of the Hand came rushing over, things would become troublesome.

Yet when he raised his eyes and swept his gaze around, he discovered several more traces of demonic aura. Humans and monsters were mixed together here, with every kind of demon imaginable.

The battle continued for a long while. Although the gang’s pursuing forces greatly outnumbered them, the expedition team’s ingenious counterattacks gradually pushed them into a disadvantageous position. Relying on their intelligence and courage, Li Xun, Aya, and Old Zhang successfully withstood the gang’s assault.

They had stationed men on the training grounds in an attempt to put the two to death. Unfortunately, despite being surrounded by so many attackers, the pair emerged completely unharmed.

Before Lin Qingchen could even open his mouth to beg, Li Ling struck twice, sending the heads of the Lin Family’s patriarch and Lin Dong flying.

“This is where we will need Master Wang’s assistance.” Zhu Houhuang turned around to face Wang Yangming.

Your servant Huang Tinggui, Governor-General of the Two Rivers, respectfully submits this memorial: the acting governor has acted recklessly and repeatedly changed his course. I have reported the facts in full and humbly beseech Your Majesty’s wise judgment.

Closing his eyes slightly and sensing the movement of the air around him, Young Master Yusheng felt that he had never experienced such ease before.

Within the government office, Dantai Mingyue and A Zhu had not returned to their new chamber. The two of them went to the bodies of the spies who had been executed and began examining them carefully. A Zhu in particular excelled at searching and tracking, and her powers of observation were extraordinarily meticulous.

The senior officials of Northern Ming glared furiously at Wu Batu. Regardless of the circumstances, what they had witnessed was Wu Batu ordering his guards to attack. No one cared about the reason. Wu Batu’s actions had already crossed their bottom line.

He desperately wanted to ask whether Liu Yuan had remembered his origins, but Wang Chunhua did not dare. She felt that if she brought it up, Liu Yuan might leave them forever, and she would never see him again.

He Liuhun immediately became attentive. Hadn’t this Gaoche tribe already surrendered to Pochan Han Baling?

Da Long Jing Que’s blade sliced into Chan Nian’s hands. If not for the old monk’s profound cultivation, that single clash would have severed both his palms.

Li Maogong looked at everyone with ill intent, his gaze sweeping over them one by one like a wolf prowling through the night. Cheng Shan’e stood beside him.

Watching Huo Ziyin finish fifty plates of pastries, Bai Yutang maintained an expression of feigned composure. Big brother? I called you over because I wanted to talk to you, and you actually started eating. How can you eat with such relish?

Quan Xulei nodded forcefully. At that moment, the only thing he could do was engrave every one of the instructor’s reminders deeply in his heart. He absolutely could not forget them.

How could his head be crammed with so many bizarre methods of killing? Each one led into the next, and he always treated other people as fools.

The way he hunched over made everyone else exchange knowing looks. They then pretended not to have seen anything and continued with their own affairs.

With everyone around him heedlessly jabbing at the most vulnerable places in his heart, how could he possibly remain unhurt?

“Well preserved! As expected of Okuda, you never disappoint. Then your teacher will help himself!” Koro-sensei picked up the medicine bottle and poured its contents straight into his mouth. The glass bottle fell to the ground and shattered, while Koro-sensei moved at supersonic speed, leaving afterimages as he deliberately created a spectacular effect.

However, the existence of the ancient divine temple would also attract confident individuals from the forces whose gods guarded the outer battlefield, drawing them to join the fighting there. Naturally, such individuals fell outside the scope of its jurisdiction.

Of course, if a recruit stepped into a trap, the veterans would never explain its intricacies. Instead, they would burst into laughter and mock the recruits for being blind, unable even to spot a single white tripwire.

Even Yan Poyue and Xiao Yunjie did not know when sounds of this kind had first begun.

These members of the imperial clan had plenty of time, plenty of money, and nothing useful to occupy themselves with. Dabbling in science was at least a way to make use of otherwise wasted resources. Their spirit of inquiry ought to be encouraged.

The Daoist Elder Jiushang mentioned in his words must be the Jiushang Daoist, while the man surnamed Pan was probably Pan Changlong, right?

“Easy for you to say. Is Sishui Pass really so easy to capture? We haven’t even reached the top of Sishui Pass’s walls once in the past half month, and you’re already talking about conquering it?” one of the allied commanders said irritably.

This broodmother certainly never imagined that I would suddenly make such a move. At that moment, both of its arms were gripping the cavern wall, gouging two deep pits into the stone. Without paying any attention to the fragments that had just been sent flying, it suddenly arched its body and violently shook itself from head to toe.

Back home, Lu Aiguo and Shitou spent some time working on things. They helped connect the solar panels to the storage room before heading out.

Qi Yi also recognized Qin Yun’s identity. Her body trembled instinctively, and her feet involuntarily carried her one step backward.

The King of Hell was not hideously ugly. His features were as regular and amiable as those of an ordinary man.

“Could something have gone wrong with the Title Military Reform?” Qin Yun was immediately seized by a headache. After thinking it over, he felt that only a problem in that area could qualify as a serious matter, and it happened to fit Zhao Min’s current position as commander.

Whatever the case, He Erniang had shown me mercy just now. If I took advantage of her weakened state and struck first, it would hardly be honorable. Even if I intend to kill them, I should at least let them understand why they are dying, rather than sending them to their graves in confusion. That would also serve as my response to He Erniang’s needle.
