Chapter 116: The Invalid

Lu Qingqing did not expose Young Master Xue’s hypocritical facade; she merely asked a question.

She did not believe that Shen Ahhuai would fall in love without reason with someone he had barely met, nor did she believe that if Nangong Ling truly cared for Shen Ahhuai, she would have disappeared without a trace for so long.

Yet, Lu Qingqing did not utter a single word of doubt.

“Consort Guifei’s status is right here, even if the Emperor has already...”

“Miss Linglong, you should listen to the general. Nothing will go wrong; Master Lin is watching from afar!” The special forces soldier shrank his neck and said.

This was indeed the weakness of the former Yang Xudong, but the Yang Xudong now was not only remarkably tolerant of alcohol but had earned a reputation for never getting drunk no matter how much he drank. In his past life as a formidable assassin, alcohol was his companion. Whenever he was bored or lonely, drinking was the best way to pass the time.

I witnessed an unprecedented unity, as if the hearts of the entire realm were gathered around His Majesty. All our hearts were connected, regardless of rank or status, purely offering blessings and using whatever strength we could muster to help others.

Although Tang Fei appeared casual, even somewhat unprofessional, Zhang Da understood very well that since Su Wanqing had entrusted the other party with the overall command, they must have some real skill, so he shared his thoughts with them.

When a direct assault failed, the Hidden Dragon Society immediately shifted to positional warfare, unleashing firepower fiercer than that of Beidou, pouring onto the front lines before Holy Water Town, forcing Beidou to lower their heads in suppression.

“It’s good that the master thinks this way,” said the Serpent God, sitting cross-legged and beginning to recover his breath.

Ashina Yifan’s face was alight with excitement. He rode a jet-black warhorse, clutching a jade pendant of emerald green in his remaining right hand, his eyes practically glowing.

Li Wei could only gaze tenderly at Gao Haoyu, while He Manzi murmured, unsure of what to say. For a moment, Gao Haoyu himself was at a loss for words.

This time, Yang Xudong did not address her as “you” but called her “Jiayao.” Xu Jiayao’s heart warmed at the sweetness of the name. She knew Yang Xudong had truly placed her in his heart, and that was enough. Before he could finish speaking, Xu Jiayao once again cut him off with a kiss.

Qin Yurou ignored the bullets aimed at her and immediately unleashed three wind blades simultaneously, tearing a bloody rainstorm through the crowd at Ming Tang. One of the wind blades even vertically sliced an evolved creature standing in front of Qiao Jinliang.

Sun Jian’s leap caught his own side off guard, but fortunately, Ma Liang, low on health, was covered by Yuan Shao’s shield. As Ma Liang leapt away using his E skill and threw a large attack backward, Yuan Shao’s ability activated in time, instantly killing Ma Liang.

Though Bai Yunchu lived a reclusive life and few had seen him, it wasn’t true that no one had ever laid eyes on him.

Before long, another wave of strange beasts surged at the city gates, even stronger than the previous batch, including several sixth-tier existences.

The egg shell was unremarkable, adorned with shimmering green-black patterns, giving off no sense of anything good.

Lin Ye sheathed his blade and stood still, not rushing to move. He closed his eyes, took three deep breaths, circulating the power flowing through his body into his pulse, gathering it into his dantian before opening his eyes.

Though it was nominally a welcome party, the audience was clearly more than just the freshmen. Nearly the entire school’s students were present.

Seeing the screen filled with ellipses, Xue’er didn’t dwell on the question. She quickly changed the subject: “It’s just a double kill. Let me show you your big sister getting a double kill too!” She said this just as the bottom lane enemy’s first tower fell, and Huang Yueying was taken down.

Yin Zheng wore an expression of utmost fear and reverence, his face so convincing that it was impossible to doubt.

But it had been five days since then. During that time, he had called her only two or three times, sent a few WeChat messages, and then nothing more.
