Chapter 22: Fabrications
After a full minute of silence, Su Wenshan finally let out a long sigh and said,
“This matter is truly of great consequence. Yanran, a woman’s compassion is…”
“Grandfather!”
Su Yanran called out loudly, her determined gaze making it clear she would not agree…
Gui Xiliang and Gao Zandao drove the remaining brothers, who were still scavenging, away. Ignoring the stench of blood, Zhang Xuanning stepped forward, lifted a wounded comrade onto his back, and blood instantly stained his clothes. He was the first to head for the door, causing those behind him to glance at one another in surprise.
Players from Jizhou and Bingzhou followed closely behind the Heishan Army, plundering wantonly and reaping considerable rewards.
Time passed, and after traversing a vast landscape and countless counties, the journey finally reached Jiangdu. Letters were sent directly to the palace, and soon arrived at a serene royal garden.
Just as no one would wish to serve another forever, America, too, was unwilling to remain under the influence of the Shadow Council, desiring ever greater independence.
Big Girl awoke two months later. Jin Feiyao had saved every bit of demon pill she could spare, feeding it to her to help her advance. She did not disappoint, breaking through five stages in succession.
The disciples of New Dragon Gate believed they were doomed, but to their astonishment, members of the Golden Kun Sect arrived. Without caring whether these newcomers could handle the three evil spirits, they began to shout desperately for help.
This brought immense delight to the assistant who had been caring for her all along. Linda had come to Paradise Island for a change of scene, hoping it would improve her spirits and appetite, and perhaps even cure her anorexia.
Those from Wrangel Island and Hokkaido had violated private property and entered Paradise Island’s waters to hunt rare dolphins. Such offenses could lead to prison sentences and would leave a lasting stain on their reputations.
If all these conditions met the requirements of the NPC generals, they would typically accept the player’s overtures and pledge their allegiance.
Linghu Lingguang, trembling, said, “Wei Dingtian, I really don’t know…” Before he could finish, Wei Dingtian let out a cold snort. Suddenly, Linghu Lingguang felt his bones shatter, and he collapsed powerlessly in midair.
Just as everything had finally been sent away, someone at the door announced that Bai Xuezhu had arrived.
The icy gleam in those eyes seemed capable of annihilating everything in an instant, and any outsider who met that gaze would feel a chill of fear.
Zhou Nana immediately put on a radiant smile, happily handed over the form, and began to boast to Brother Zhao about her recent accomplishments.
Wei Wuming appeared in a flash from a distance. His dark golden battle robe was in tatters, and the clear scar on his face glinted coldly. Blood spurted from his mouth, yet his dragon-horned sword remained steadfastly pointed at Yuan Wuhui.
With that, she ignored Bo Yunlang, knelt alone before the Buddha, while Bo Yunlang smiled faintly behind her, moved to another cushion, and quietly closed his eyes.
Yet just as everyone hurried forward to greet the newcomers, their expressions suddenly changed. As if confronted by a demon god, they instinctively stepped back in unison.
Ling Yue nodded, taking the medicine bottle from his hand with a sense of having received a vital task.
In that instant, Juechen Yu Si’s heart turned cold. He wanted to roar, to scream, but could do nothing. Powerless, he could only watch as that ever-smiling, cheerful Ai He and her adjutant’s bodies slowly fell apart.
When a master like He Yunye spoke, his words served as authority; he would never speak lightly without certainty.
The hidden map lay in the mountains fifty li outside Blue Maple Giant City. Following the item’s directions, the five made their way to the entrance of a vast mountain cave.
