Chapter 56: A Man Does Not Easily Shed Tears

Who are you? Smiling so... The word ugly stuck in her throat, and Li Tongtong's furious voice came to an abrupt halt. Out of the corner of her eye, she thought Ye Jingxiao's comical appearance looked somewhat ridiculous, and just as she was about to make a sarcastic remark, she looked him straight in the eye as his smile faded, leaving her completely transfixed. There are countless handsome men in this world, but standing there, he seemed as tranquil as mountains and rivers, peerlessly magnificent and beyond description. He was still holding two large woven bags, bulging heavily, probably filled with...

Looking at everything before her, Qi Kexue felt deeply moved by every single detail. Those people she had trained were called her subordinates, but they were much more like her family; everyone showed their care for her in their own way.

Suddenly, Xu Yang frowned as if he had encountered some major crisis, and cold sweat even beaded on his forehead.

Leveraging his strength, he vaulted over the high wall and entered the prefect's residence. At this hour, ordinary commoners would have long since fallen asleep, but this prefect clearly did not go to bed so early. Sounds of music drifted over, indicating that the master of the place was entertaining himself—supposedly a form of nightlife in this era.

Whenever he thought of these things, Yin Wei could not help but feel a deep sense of sorrow and regret, even feeling that he had failed the heavy trust Yao Chang had placed in him when entrusting his orphan to his care.

The players' stamina simply cannot recover in time, said the assistant coach helplessly. After playing for such a long time in last night's game, not to mention the back-to-backs over the past few days, under this kind of game intensity, they simply have no time to rest. You need to give them a chance to catch their breath as well, right?

Darkness Transformation! Qin Tianqi was overjoyed and hurriedly seized the moment to absorb that chaotic force. The chaotic force rushed continuously toward Qin Tianqi, visibly forming swirling vortices of chaos on the surface of his body.

Qi Li certainly was not going to continue squeezing profits out of her; a tier-three professional with a monthly salary of one gold sovereign was practically a steal.

The crowd chimed in, saying that since there were investment avenues like this, why would anyone follow the Golden Family's old ways of directly stripping away the creativity of lower-tier mages?

Tang Qingyi had stayed here before and held exceptionally high prestige among the soldiers, so finding someone capable of leading the troops was not difficult.

What are you people trying to do? Can't you ever just quit? Wu Xie rushed out and shouted.

Loud bell chimes echoed from the plaza in front of the hall. The Oblivious Sword planted in the center of the plaza trembled slightly, emitting a dragon-like sword hum that reverberated among the cloud-shrouded peaks of Dragon Back Mountain, proclaiming the commencement of the Grand Dao Dharma Assembly.

Zhong Chunnan also smiled, though he remained silent. Walking behind An Bolong, he was easily four times An Bolong's size.

Silver Shadow arrived, and upon seeing Prince Ning, he prepared to kneel and confess his crime. Prince Ning stopped him and ordered a dozen men skilled in lightweight kung fu to be sent overnight to scout the Wangchuan Mountain Ridge. As expected, the toxic creatures of Wangchuan Mountain Ridge must have already been cleared away.

Lord Hu's residence was completely swept of its previous desolation, with many new servants added. Madam Hu's attire had also become much more flamboyant, though her jewelry remained simple.

Yet how terrifying was the pillar of lightning descending from the heavens? Spanning a hundred miles and connecting heaven and earth, it was several times more powerful than the Ninefold Heavenly Lightning combined from the folding-screen world back then.

However, as the years passed and Feng Qingtian gained a deeper understanding of Zhous Xusheng, the more he realized that the main gap between him and Zhous Xusheng was not merely a matter of strength, but rather of scheming. The combined strength of Immortal Zijun and Mr. Liu surpassed Zhous Xusheng's, yet they fell completely short and suffered defeat simply because their scheming was slightly inferior.

Slowly standing up, Xu Xunran lowered his head to examine his own body, his eyes flashing with a thoughtful look.

Now that the grand trend has been set, dead ashes are hard to rekindle. Even if Chu Du himself were to come to Kunpeng Mountain, he would remain a solitary figure, with no soldiers left to obey his commands.

Yet when everyone looked up into the distance, they saw that the surface of the lake was entirely empty, not even half a multi-storied boat in sight.

The team's mana pool had already begun to face a continuous crisis, and two spell-casting classes had even completely run out of their own mana, forcing them to resort to holding their staves and directly beating the boss in melee combat.
