Fu Qingze withdrew his gaze and went downstairs with an unreadable expression. His assistant, Liu Zheng, and the driver had been waiting in the car for some time.

“What? The Sea Clan is involved? Why does this have anything to do with the Sea Clan?” No sooner had he asked than the Embroidered-Clothes Envoy issued a loud warning: multiple targets were approaching beneath the ship.

Downstairs, Fu Qingze heard Shen Shuyu get up and go to the bathroom, but she still did not come down. He began to worry.

Although he did not care what became of Eastern Continent, where the Demon Sect was located, if its terrain were destroyed, the world itself would reject it.

During one scene, the film crew did not have enough track, so they could only find a skateboard and ask Xu Yaoyi whether it could be used to create a smooth transition for a close-up shot.

After making the necessary arrangements, the two went to the imperial palace to meet Wu Jingxiao. They needed to know the identities under which they would enter the Ancient Feng Dynasty, as well as information about certain undercover agents. All of this had to be conveyed in Situ Yixiu’s presence.

This also included the condition of the upper and lower neurons in the in vitro experiments, as well as the extent of their recovery.

“Sir, you must be thirsty. There’s water in the courtyard. I’ll bring you a bowl.” When the man nodded, he ran back into the courtyard. A moment later, he returned with a bowl of water. After handing it to the man, You Luming sat down again and continued carving.

In particular, armor made from the hide of a demon beast that even a combined battle formation could not completely shatter would be exceptionally durable.

It seemed that ever since Shen Shuyu had returned from her last business trip to Europe, she had suddenly learned how to cook. He was a little surprised, but did not pay much attention to it.

Master Liu himself understood that if the fire corpse before him were alive, then forget his current force—even ten times as many people might not be enough to kill it.

After hearing Hong Yi’s explanation, Shi Yao smiled, then rose and ran to the window beside the bamboo house. She had not noticed the strange look Hong Yi had shown earlier. In fact, even Hong Yi himself had not noticed it.

Yet the thin Shu-brocade quilt lay over her body, a faint floral fragrance lingered beneath her nose, and the room was clean and elegant. It was not particularly luxurious, but it was comfortable and tasteful. In one corner stood a huge ceramic jar filled to the brim with fresh flowers of every kind.

The instant Baili Ziqian touched Shi Yao’s meridians, however, he frowned. He had immediately discovered a secret hidden within her.

With a helpless sigh, the Grand Elder did not dwell on it. It was merely a wisp of the Golden Emperor Phoenix Heavenly Flame’s fire source and would have no effect whatsoever on the true Golden Emperor Phoenix Heavenly Flame.

When the students saw these people, they all fell silent, gazing at the figures with fervent eyes.

Both times, she had been injured because he was not by her side. Therefore, Zijing decided that from then on, no matter how grave the matter, he would never leave Shi Yao’s side again.

Xiao Yan pondered for a moment, then nodded in understanding. If the power of the first move of the White Tiger’s Five Forms was currently counted as one, and each successive move doubled in power, then the enhanced first move could be counted as 1.1, while the third move would be considerably stronger than it had originally been.

After being dragged down by the Great Song and the weather for the past few years, Western Xia had finally collapsed. It had now become a truly pathetic weakling. Several treacherous ministers hoped to earn some military merit from Western Xia so they could strengthen their favor with the emperor and perhaps win themselves a noble title as well. The Great Song’s rule that no one could be ennobled without military merit was truly infuriating.

Apart from the waiters serving the dishes, there were no other customers around to witness their “terrifying” table manners.

Many of his trusted subordinates breathed a slight sigh of relief after hearing this. As long as the Marshal had a chance to confront that military supervisor, there was nothing to fear. Could Yang Bo really kill everyone to silence them? Only Shen Shikui was deathly pale, collapsed in his seat.

The naval soldiers shouted in unison. A few men who had not yet thrown away the weapons they had used in the team battle even ran over and circled the Yun-5, which was still belching black smoke, with exaggerated seriousness. It was impossible to tell whether they intended to dismantle the aircraft or genuinely planned to help repair it.

A closer look revealed that three true powers of the entire school had gathered in Wang Kun’s office. Besides Wang Kun, the de facto ruler, Dong Wei and Zhu Yu—the school’s two executive vice principals—were seated on the sofa.

Zhao Long was overjoyed and repeatedly agreed. He knew that Yang Bo was preparing to establish a dragon cavalry battalion. Once it was formed, who besides him could possibly compete for the position of battalion commander?

“Don’t—” Lady Han let out a soft whimper and lowered her delicate head into Ma Qiu’s arms, desperately refusing to let him see the embarrassment on her face.

Xiao Cheng understood what Zhou Wuya meant, but going to Heavenly Witch City was imperative. He genuinely needed a guide like Zhou Wuya to lead the way. He could tell that although Zhou Wuya did not want to go, he probably would not refuse if offered a sufficient reward. First, however, they had to persuade Elder Li and the others.

Sharp saber energy filled the air, while the ground, affected by Lu Wuchen’s sword aura, had already congealed into a vast expanse of white frost. Song Que held his great saber in one hand, as imposing as a mountain abyss. Lu Wuchen, meanwhile, was as swift as lightning, transforming into a series of phantom images. The clang of weapons striking one another rang out without end.

“Heh heh, Your Majesty is joking. This humble servant would not dare. I merely wish to select a few young people from the Medical Institute of the Imperial Academy, recruit some from among the common folk, and then choose a few clever soldiers from the army to assist us.”

Wang Wei naturally wanted the imperial physicians, but he did not have the courage to ask for them.

The staff officers were almost stunned. This meant they would have to face a joint attack by the Soviet Union and Huaxia. The positions of offense and defense had been reversed in an instant. Could they still win this war?

“I’m back!” Qi Muxue was in excellent spirits. After all, she had just spent several joyful days with Du Yanhang on the Holy Grail battlefield, where she had also met many Servants she had always liked but had never encountered before.

The crew-cut man wasted no time after hearing this. He immediately chased after her and brought her back not long afterward.

It seemed that she knew the truth and was also aware that the detention room was under surveillance, which was why she had deliberately led Sun Jie into it.
