Chapter 46: The Noble Families

Lin Yu stared at Lin Shiyun in utter shock, his astonishment written all over his face.

He quickly pieced together the information he’d heard earlier, and suddenly it all made sense: “Sis, could it be that Li Xueyang is the one you mentioned, from the Li family, one of the three great clans in the capital?”

Lin Shiyun nodded in confirmation. “That’s right. Li Xueyang, known as the Grand Physician of Daxia, is indeed a member of the Li family.”

…

She knew that if she were to charge in recklessly and fight those two, her chances of survival were nearly zero. Not only that, but she would drag her father down with her. That was why she forced herself to remain rational, to first deliver the message her father had entrusted to her, before considering any further plans.

As subordinates of the Zhantian Tribe, they were all too familiar with the tribe’s cruelty.

“There will be rewards, and the combat system will be fully activated as well.” He kept his explanation brief, clearly unwilling to discuss it further.

Ling Tianxin said nothing, but instead produced a mirror-like magical artifact, showing it to Feng Wuya.

He recalled the restrictions here: flying was forbidden, and at most one could only rise five meters above the ground. Below, the flames known as the Soul-Scorching Fire could burn not only flesh, but the soul as well.

For as long as Gu Mochen could remember, he’d always regarded that man as a benefactor to both himself and his brother, even seeing him as a father figure. Yet, unbelievably, things were not as simple as he had always imagined.

As he said this, his face remained calm and composed, betraying not the slightest hint of shame or excitement, as if those five million plus meant nothing to him. Compared to the dealer Li En, this seemingly simple-minded giant was clearly the more composed of the two.

This arrow bore the hopes of countless human warriors. They hoped Chu Chen could revive the glory of the Arrow Emperor and shoot down a Golden Crow with a single shot.

Just then, Yang Yi was completely entranced by the beautiful scenery before him, when An Lu turned back with a bright smile and waved coyly at him.

Xu Changfeng stood with his hands clasped behind his back, his gaze not on Qin Xuanya, but rather fixed on the distant mountain peaks.

She looked just as she had when they first met—tall, strikingly handsome, her expression cool and aloof, her long hair tied up in a high ponytail. Wrapped in a fitted black leather suit that accentuated every curve, her figure was nothing short of mesmerizing.

At that moment, Jiang Yan also approached, following her gaze and beginning to look in that direction.

As for the bronze cannons, they would be sent straight to the steelworks for smelting and re-casting. The metal would make excellent material for bullets. Judging by their weight, each of those two cannons must have weighed at least a thousand pounds.

Meanwhile, in one-on-one defense against Garnett, Ibaka clearly had the upper hand compared to Millsap, who was barely over two meters tall.

Hong Meiyi hadn’t even noticed that Ye Chen’s eyes had turned blood-red the moment he stepped into the garden.

Countless fragments of shattered concrete fell. In the pitch-black, shadowy space, Daniel crashed heavily to the ground, coughing violently and spitting up blood.

As for the largest government and military base in Su City, they scoffed at the Su family’s proposal, and naturally, Li Xuan saw no reason to press the matter.

I hadn’t anticipated encountering anything like this before coming here, so I hadn’t called Du Hongfu and the others.

“What? This is the old hunchback? Are you sure you’re not mistaken?” Black Rose asked, frowning.

Whenever Li Dong entered or left the palace, he always used a discreet side gate, slipping in and out unnoticed, with his guards already disguised and waiting outside.

“Not good!” The moment Yan Wen and Huang Kan sensed the pull, they were caught off guard and panic swept over them. Immediately, they summoned all their chaotic energy to resist the immense suction, lest they be drawn into that rectangular void portal.

Li Dong smiled and nodded. Hearing Wang Shouren’s agreement, he knew his own ideas weren’t off the mark. Now, the rest was all about careful planning and thorough arrangements. For that, he’d need Li Xiang—if the strategy were to succeed, the accuracy of their intelligence would be absolutely crucial.
