Volume 1, Chapter 51: Thank You Both for Your Honesty

The young man's voice was now filled with threat.

As the darkness spread, the two felt as if they were plunged into a viscous space.

Not only was their vision obstructed, but all their senses were drastically impaired!

Manager Liu panicked. "Who's there! Who is speaking?"

Manager Zhao immediately recognized the voice as Jiang Huan's. "Manager Liu! It's him! That fellow surnamed Jiang!"

Both of them were ordinary people and completely powerless against a Spirit Master.

Therefore, their first instinct was to flee!

Yet to their shock, the office door, which had been right at hand just a moment ago, was now nowhere to be found!

"Manager Liu! What is going on? I remember the door clearly..."

After several twists and turns, they finally found a satisfactory spot. Here, they could both attack and defend, and also keep watch on the official road below—truly an exceptional location.

Yet now, he could not find a trace of Zhu Yan at all, and could only strike out wildly into the void.

Moreover, this kind of defensive stance could branch out into countless tactics, such as launching a preliminary snipe, then sabotaging one's teammates, or waiting for a high vantage point to dive down. The possibilities were endless.

A faint, curved smile touched her crimson lips, and Bai Yan's expression turned somewhat ferocious. Yet it was filled with such confidence that she felt not the least bit annoyed by those who had plotted against her.

Considering all factors, Wang Nuo had no choice but to abandon the platform he had selected upon completing the investment company's registration and seek a new one, such as... Tailong International.

Fortunately, Yamamoto Kyōto reacted quickly enough, swinging his blade to parry the three flying daggers hurtling toward Domoto Jing. With three metallic clanging sounds, Liu Feng's flying daggers fell to the ground.

He had never believed in any higher power before, but now, for the sake of Jinxiu, he was willing to thank the very entity he used to disbelieve, showing just how bewildered and utterly panicked his heart had become.

If they could know the reason, would it mean their path would be smoother and they could go even further?

"It has truly been a long time, Master Jiang, though I have always kept up with your news." Zhou Xing shook hands with Jiang Ke very courteously.

That was a Heaven-tier expert brought by Xun Huan, who walked at the very rear. Because of Xun Huan's status, these people also followed at the back, feeling too diffident to walk alongside Zhu Yan and the others.

Countless hands tore at Ya Wei. Eric reached out in an attempt to hold onto her, but he could not do so.

Thus, the narrow player tunnel was crowded with players from both sides. Fortunately, they did not share a common language, or all their tactics would have been leaked.

"Lady Lan, please do not be angry. An innocent student like myself should always have some self-preservation methods, don't you agree?" Xianxian smiled gently, her words sharp enough to kill without a trace.

Western Chu had long harbored ambitions of swallowing the Beilun Dynasty, and was likely waiting for this very opportunity. If so, they would surely launch a massive invasion against the Beilun Dynasty.

Tuoba Yunie, whose face was contorted with fury, could never have imagined how people were discussing him; otherwise, he would have been angered to the point of vomiting blood.

At the very least, as Xianxian sat on the large bed, she guessed that what lay beneath her must be a goose-down mattress, while before her eyes was pitch darkness, and in her ears, a death-like silence.

After the housekeeper left, Yu Moxi finally opened the letter. On the large sheet of white paper, only a few sparse words were written.

Sitting before his desk, Lun Ding saw the two men shaking hands, and felt the scene was rather eerie.

Many people said that within the next decade, no film would ever be able to break the box-office myth created by that movie.

Reopening the Qin Family Shop would not be easy. The side sealed off by the government alone was difficult to deal with, not to mention the challenge of staging a grand reopening.

I nodded silently without making any promises. If possible, I would naturally save her; if not for Binglan just now, I likely would have perished at the foot of the mountain long ago.

Li Hui further persuaded him, "A gentleman takes his revenge ten years later; you can bide your time and settle the score all at once in the future!" Ma Chao could only agree that this was the only way, but Jingzhou offered no place for him to stay. If he remained here any longer, he might be wiped out by the Jiaozhou army, let alone talk of waiting for an opportunity for revenge!

Liu Yu strictly ordered his soldiers: "Do not harm anyone else, merely kill Bogui alone!" Liu Yu's army launched an attack on Guangxin City. Liu Yu's troops were unaccustomed to warfare, and moreover, Liu Yu cherished people's homes, strictly forbidding his soldiers from burning down dwellings, which resulted in his inability to capture the city despite fierce assaults.

Jiang Hengqing breathed heavily and gaspingly, then looked at Su Yan in terror, unable to understand how the latter could unleash such formidable power—a power that made him sense the presence of death.

The contract was rather lengthy, yet it detailed everything meticulously, from the prices of cattle and horses to the payment methods, and even the rental of carts and horses to offset the costs. It was all written out in full on a sheet of paper as large as a public notice before it was finally concluded.

Sun Jian's sword-like gaze scrutinized me, seemingly mocking me. I could sense my men's fear of the impending Wu counterattack. The things one fears most are often the ones that come to pass, and fear now was utterly useless. Since I had chosen to take a desperate risk in the first place, did I have any reason to back down now? I clenched my teeth and made up my mind.

"Remember! Even if you are crippled, you must win the first round! Otherwise, humph!" Chiba Lian stared fixedly at Shenfeng for a moment, then suddenly leaped onto his own bed and lay sprawled out like a dead fish.

Because of this, the Fifth Princess, Sima Jing, even ran tearfully into the imperial palace to beg Sima Qing for a divorce from Yuchi Gong, insisting on remaining in Zhaoyang City.

The massive force drove Simon's body crashing toward the sea surface. In the nick of time, he spun around and stepped into the air with both feet, dissipating the momentum and halting himself in mid-air at a height of one meter above the sea using Moon Walk.

Emperor Wang was stunned, while Lan Xi silently looked at him as well. Her overflowing sympathy welled up once more, and she cast a quiet glance at him—her gaze complex and guilt-ridden, yet entirely devoid of lingering affection or love.

Looking at Allen, who was waiting for the verification results, Fang Tingting turned her gaze toward Ye Xiu with a mixture of apprehension and unease in her eyes, wanting to speak several times, yet feeling at a loss for words.

"So you intend to refine me? Why haven't you made a move yet?" Zhang Tian said, the rusted sword already quietly materializing in his hand, its sword Qi faintly concealing itself along the blade without bursting forth.
