Volume One, Chapter 96: The Crown Prince's Admiration

Because once entangled, given Igor’s status and position, he would certainly insist that Su Cheng marry her, and Su Cheng was unwilling to do so.

On her transport vehicle, Poles appeared only slightly worried, her expression tinged with resignation and hope as she glanced occasionally toward Octopus and his group, but deep inside she was exceedingly anxious.

Therefore, silently killing those eleven enemies was nothing at all for Ye Tian.

For professional athletes, injuries are always a serious concern. Many injuries require lengthy recovery, yet the “do-or-die spirit” of professionals keeps them fighting on the front lines.

Back at the exhibition center, after leaving the Lamborghini area, Su Cheng and Yao Ke’er continued on.

“Brother, what did your divination reveal this time? We still can’t advance east?” Guo Si lifted the tent flap. The two had endured hardships together for a long time, and among the generals of Liangzhou, Li Jue was closest to Guo Si. Yet recent events had made Li Jue suspicious, sensing that Guo Si was guarding against him.

Had that person just now possessed only the level of a typical high-level boundary breaker, even a probing attack would have been enough to severely injure or even kill him.

He Zhen was unaware that Zhang Yuanmin had indeed intended to cause trouble and even set He Zhen up, but was stopped by Zhang Yuanmin’s brother, who was also a Transcender.

Chunyu Qiong had lost consciousness. His wound was infected, causing a persistent fever. Without proper medical care and rest, a man’s body is no iron, how could he endure?

Apple’s Jess chose the Thunder Lord’s Decree; in his top lane duel with the Sword Maiden, Thunder Lord focused on harass, while War Enthusiasm focused on trading blows. Yet for Ya Guo, trading blows was always something he disliked.

“Mother, what brings you here?” Zhao Che was surprised to see the Empress Dowager.

After the Spirit had spoken with Yi Yingying, she was greatly inspired. Though lacking the strength to develop the blade-shaped water flow, she made progress on the ‘Reconnaissance Post.’ While unable to launch covert psychic attacks, she could nonetheless control the battlefield’s situation from all directions.

Knowing he had overstepped by guessing his master’s intentions and angered the man in the silver mask, Dark Fang gritted his teeth and, under immense pressure, knelt heavily to the ground.

Suspended in mid-air, Liu Qitian remained calm, drew his spear, turned his body so his head faced downward, and with a powerful thrust and the force of his descent, drove the spear into the Tyrannosaurus’s spine. He landed steadily on its back, twisted the blood-stained spear a few times, and then pulled it free.

Ye Wuhui asked curiously, wanting to know who the other was, so that he could move more freely in the Nether Palace in the future.

Those five beasts stood perplexed, wondering why explosions had occurred before they had even attacked.

“A world parallel to the Holy Realm, but unreachable from here—only from the Holy Realm itself,” said Sun Wukong.

Xia Ranmo was quietly moved, casting a grateful glance at Xing Yicheng. Whatever the circumstances, he had shielded her from that cup of wine.

“Well done, Spirit! We’re cheering for you!” Such spirited words could only come from Yi Yinying’s mouth.

Yu Xiao stopped Xun Yin from rushing out, shook her head, and then cast a playful smile toward the direction Su Feiran had departed.

He tasted it, confirming it was indeed sugar. The sweetness wasn’t as high as expected, but it was unmistakably sugar.

“Puh!” Du Youlin spat a mouthful of phlegm-laced blood, surprised as his chest felt even heavier.

He had already tested the defense of the Eight-Star Spirit Law. Against non-physical attacks, it still performed strongly. Low temperatures did slow his movements, but his life field remained unaffected.

Last time, he used a cigarette to burn his suit; now he provoked in another way.

Not long ago, Han Fei considered the appearance of these high-quality spirit shells as a stroke of luck for the Han family.

Battle and slaughter composed the rhythm of this symphony—fierce and brutal, yet creating a strange resonance in a way.

“How’s the mountain? And the water veins?” Shigeru Hatake felt the cave’s humidity, surprised by its dryness.

The governor of Jiangbei, acting alone, had implemented a new farming method, but it damaged the soil structure. Many farmers reported sinking fields. The method depleted the nutrients, causing grain yields to drop. Food prices soared in Jiangbei, and famine threatened.

The process of evolution granted Di Jiang several new spirit arts, self-realized rather than loaded onto him by Lin Ting’s panel.

Qin Yongxiu, usually reserved, eagerly chimed in after sharing those thrilling, romantic experiences with Hua Jue.

Another fat man in a bright red shirt snatched the carnation from his hand with a malicious grin. “You have money to buy flowers, yet claim you’re broke? Are you a liar?” With that, he stomped on the petals, grinding them underfoot.

“Sister, you know what I mean. If I could, I would trade anything for your bond with Baoyuan. If only I could spend another day with him, I’d rather descend into the deepest hell.” Zhang Taihua spoke softly, and her words made my heart ache in waves.

It truly was eye-opening—a huge balance scale hanging from the rafters, resembling the scales of justice. Everyone weighed themselves, debating who was fat or thin. The affairs of the previous dynasty and the harem, past and future, were all temporarily forgotten amidst laughter and jest.

Even as curiosity clawed at their hearts like a cat’s paws, keeping them awake, not one made a sound, nor did anyone disobediently ask questions.

Given today’s circumstances, my doubts were not unfounded. Something must be amiss with Baoyuan.

“Is everyone from Building One accounted for?” Su Mubai glanced at the dozens of worried residents and asked his teammate beside him.

This was the speed of Gu Youran’s group. For ordinary folk, traversing such a distance would have taken two days at least.
