Chapter 56

If you want to change the Eighteen Bronze Men, then gather eighteen martial monks to challenge them. After all, Zhao Zimo has been a monk for so long that he hasn't switched the Eighteen Bronze Men for a full eight years.

He took out five pieces of premium green jade, infused true energy into four of them, and placed them at four strange spots around his body.

The Ghost Squad of the Divine Emperor was not only enraged by the mockery from the Wild Wolf Special Forces but also saw Takehita Shun at a disadvantage. They wanted to quickly break through the defenses of the Wild Wolf team members before them to split and provide support.

Jing Motong stepped slowly into this place he had visited several times before, his heart devoid of excitement.

If he hadn’t mastered much of the skills for hands and feet, he would have collapsed long ago. The White Ram grew stronger with every battle, its eyes reddening, mad and wild.

I looked at the old man and wanted to laugh, never expecting such a place to exist in Huaxia.

Sure enough, just as Xu Lei guessed, this time the boss had changed shape again—it was a stone man clad in full armor. As the name implies, a stone man’s defense and health are extraordinarily formidable.

Chen Bailong said coldly to Meteor, “Crystal Tian is my junior apprentice brother, but because of his extraordinary talent, his strength far surpasses those older than him in our sect.”

The mother and son continued their exchange—one asking, the other answering simply. Gradually, as night fell, they slowly made their way home.

She had agreed to marry because she found out she was carrying Chi Baobei, and later ran away for the same reason. If she told the truth, Li Beijue would immediately learn of Baobei’s existence and would surely take her treasure away.

That shadow was none other than the Black Lion demon beast, Da Hei, who had disappeared without a trace and whose fate remained unknown since escorting Xiang Yu out of the city that day.

I recalled an old saying: “I know loving you is a calamity, but I have nowhere to escape! I love you, and I know that love will bring endless pain, yet I cannot resist.”

When he killed Chang Chi that day, it was effortless—no one expected the Hwarang to commit murder.

Such thoughts gripped his heart like a venomous snake, filling his mind with images of his wives and concubines cheating: Fang Fei had stolen, Zhen Zhu had stolen, so how could the others not have?

“Hey, did you hear me clearly? I said have your mother get it for me, not buy it. Of course, I know your mother can’t do this. I’ll find a way to get the equipment; I just need your mother to use the Celestial Empire’s ships to transport them safely. That’s not a problem, right?” Chu Jun gave Zhao Ya a sharp look, as if she thought he was a fool.

Prince Jin raised his sword, but Zi Xuan gripped the porcelain shard too tightly, causing her thrust to veer off and stab into the back of her hand instead, without dropping the shard.

If this delayed things, Yao Lina’s broken leg might really be lost.

If it weren’t for Shark and the others keeping watch, the looting would have started long ago; the excited screams echoed endlessly.

As the Mud Creature nervously watched two approaching snake men, the two tall snake men were equally shocked to see it. Their sharp gazes had been watching from afar for some time.

Yang Wang felt immense terror. This great slaughter descended upon him in an instant, leaving no time to react. He guessed this was Puyang Yi’s killing move against the Underworld race, but why did it seem like they were also going to be destroyed?

Xie Jiu was stunned. But having already spoken, with the imperial physician taking her pulse and the empress staring at her belly waiting for her to rise, she could only get up and leave.

Zhou Ruijing stepped back without a sound and glanced at Gu Wanyin. Seeing her head bowed and expression hidden, he took the opportunity in the darkness to reach out and hold her hand. He said nothing, only applied a little pressure before releasing it.

They knew very well that I wouldn’t be manipulated by them, so why entrust me with the matter of Li Tai? Moreover, Zhao Tai Fei’s expression when she left suggested she was already confident.

I stood there stunned, unable to describe the shock in my heart. It turned out the emperor was so deeply troubled by the fact that I had no son. Because he never mentioned it, I had naively thought he didn’t care.

Lianzhu’s question was a prompt for Ling’er—whether to scold or hit, it was a signal that it could all begin now without any restraint.

Those beauties who were not selected couldn’t all return home to marry freely. While those from prestigious families or the capital’s officialdom were fine, many beauties from across the nation were assigned by imperial decree to various royal and noble households. Naturally, the emperor’s longtime ally, Prince Jing, was given two more.

Qingyuan was covered with a cashmere blanket gifted by a foreign nation, staring blankly at the front of Yixue Lake, his eyes void of focus.

Vos’s story was also a coincidence. While at the task handover of the battle team association in Tianye Town, he happened to overhear the conversation of an A-level battle team.

Although Jia Quan kept clicking his tongue in admiration, everyone could hear the obvious envy in his words.
