Chapter 59: Rising and Sitting Down
Whether one can regularly participate in the discussions in the Imperial Study is a watershed for whether a Great Li official counts as a top-ranking court minister.
"Prepare to die!" the two shouted fiercely. With a wave of their hands, two silver discs suddenly produced a sharp sound, whipping up whirlwinds as they rushed straight towards Cheng Tian.
When the ultimate techniques clashed, there was a tremendous explosion. The residual force spread out. Li Yuansen stepped forward, turning his fists into palms, surging out a large amount of true essence to help those around him withstand the aftershock of this move. But the power of this move far exceeded his expectations; with him being merely a martial artist at the early True Essence realm, he truly could not withstand it.
"Got scolded? That sounds so satisfying to hear. A piece of trash wanting to find people to deal with us—he can go dream on." Chu Qiutong said smugly to Ye Xian.
A cyan-black spiritual light radiating a strange fluctuation suddenly rose, instantly spreading in all directions. Under the cold gaze of the cyan-robed figure, a brilliant brilliance surged and flickered across the vast sky and earth.
At the moment when the entire Blackstone Mountain was completely swallowed by the erupting magma, the task that Merlin Murdoch had given to Yu Bin was considered complete. After all, the entire Blackstone Mountain had been destroyed—what was there left to explore? Yu Bin believed that the grudge between the Black Dragon and the Flame Demon King would be enough to satisfy that old man Merlin.
The outskirts of Baiyuan City were still a frozen landscape of ice and snow. This city was located relatively far north, so regardless of spring, summer, autumn, or winter, this was basically the scenery. Perhaps in an exceptionally hot summer, the ice and snow would melt a little, revealing a slightly different view, but for now, it was still a vast expanse of white.
This point, Kanos had already understood very clearly during the process of following Yu Bin deep into the Howling Cave.
Instantly, golden light blazed forth, waves of Buddhist chants lingered in the ears, and faintly, the hidden sound of a Buddhist bell echoed continuously. Within the Buddha light, a golden monk's staff appeared in Guang Le's right hand. As he lightly grasped it, the Buddhist chants grew louder, and behind him, a phantom of Buddha light seemed to appear, swinging the staff out toward the descending dragon claw.
Moreover, the people living here were all standard people from beyond the pass. They treated each other with loyalty and readily offered help. In other places, such actions were what so-called heroic knights did, but for them, these were very normal things. Although people beyond the pass had always been described by those within the pass as having barbaric customs, bullying the weak and fearing the strong, with endless fights and brawls.
No, this isn't real, this isn't real, this isn't real. Why did this happen?
Fu Can gritted his teeth fiercely, his entire body trembling. The killing intent from the tomb surged madly. His tightly closed eyes seemed to see countless mountains of corpses and seas of blood. Blades and weapons clashed, severed limbs filled the sky, blood stained the ground, and waves of powerful killing intent constantly assaulted his soul.
"Alas... perhaps I'm being overly suspicious. This poor old woman looks like she's been frightened silly by the chaotic scene again..." Wukong sighed softly and quickly walked over to the old lady. He saw that the old woman had her eyes tightly shut, her lips trembling, seemingly still muttering something incessantly.
What the Iron Brothers wanted was the legendary heavy reward. When they had rescued the Saint Prison Knight earlier, Arthur used a hefty reward as bait to lure the Iron Brothers over. But it was only when Edward pressed him that Arthur fished a few gold coins out of his pocket.
"That guy's trail appeared in the Hunting Palace this afternoon. If you two hadn't been stalling, we definitely would have caught him!" said Jin Wu.
"Old Man Ye, should I have the Dragon Soul people come and secretly watch over her?" Number One said slowly.
"Playing the fool and making a spectacle! Get up!" Seeing this, Xuan Tan was immediately furious.
"What? The stolen items have been found? Where were they found?" Yan Guhong asked in surprise.
"I didn't kill anyone. Please believe me!" Jiutian Feihu looked at Su Ruoyan, whose face was cold but whose eyes were full of tears.
Ma Shanren screamed for help, then suddenly woke up. Feeling the golden lamp swaying before his eyes, he realized it had all been a nightmare.
Having been locked up in the police station for a day, it had started to get dark outside. Lin Lang had been maintaining this standing posture with his hands behind his back the whole time.
Some things, they didn't need to handle themselves at all; naturally, there would be people trying to curry favor with them who would help take care of it.
For no other reason than that what Wang Youcheng said today had many similarities with the answer from that big shot in the Qiandu Ask forum earlier.
After becoming a person above others, she naturally treasured her hard-won power and status even more.
However, although Xia Gulin and Murong Lan were biological mother and son, Xia Gulin had no impression of this mother in his memory at all.
"Where are you thinking of going?" Ge Feng asked, his voice unconsciously becoming much gentler.
Tian Jingyan was hollow and vacant, his hair like messy straw, his whole body withered as if drained of blood. Only the chilling sword tip in his hand remained. Facing Gao Yucheng, he had no reaction at all.
"Why aren't you saying anything?" Ran Qian caught the disappointment in Ge Feng's eyes. Her heart became even more joyful because she knew that she held a certain place in this boy's heart.
After a brief commotion, the atmosphere in the arena reached its peak since the start of the match. Everywhere were the sustained, high-pitched screams of the fans. At the Angel Center, flags waved, drums and gongs thundered, and the sheer force seemed about to blow the roof off.
After a long while, Brother Bai finally came to his senses. He released Bai Muxue, thanked me, and then exchanged pleasantries with Ye Tianchen. Chatting as they went, they eventually sat down at the dining table.
"Damn, the Black Tiger Gang is going too far!" Instantly, Yun Long was furious. Xiao Yu was also shocked in that moment? The Black Tiger Gang? It was actually the Black Tiger Gang?
Smelling the wisps of fragrance carried by the summer breeze from the moat, Jiu Huang's thoughts couldn't help but drift back to ten years ago.
Lame Sixth Brother stood on the earthen enclosure, gazing at the dark wilderness all around, trying to make out the lights of distant villages and towns. His mind was full of scenes from the past decade, one after another.
"Good." Shi Jian swaggered in, leaving Cang Yuan and Qian Ji stunned. Indeed, a stone was different from a person.
