Volume 1, Chapter 28: Perhaps the Prince of Chu Is Sterile

Both sides stuck to their stories, drawing a crowd of onlookers who began to murmur and debate:
"I’ve lived on this street my whole life. Do you think I don't know whether Jixin Hall sells fake medicine? This elderly couple is so kind and righteous—it’s impossible, absolutely impossible."
However, I am more curious about the "important things" Xu Yun mentioned. Could Ruan Qing’s journals be among them?
Yan Qing spoke the truth; the Sky Guards are scattered and receive no stipends from the imperial court. Originally, they were too proud to accept such funds, but forced by circumstance, they hesitate. If they accept now, they will once again become royal hounds, likely dragged into the infighting of the princes, which would betray the Sky Guards' original purpose of protecting the nation.
I sighed with deep regret: "Old man, this is your life's work. My Feihong is currently facing a crisis; if these military strategies could be passed down to guide our generals, it would be a tremendous help! It is entirely possible we could forge another Lord Ji! Why did you burn them all?" I asked.
The next day, Mo Yueyou woke up when the sun was already high. She got out of bed and saw steamed buns left on the table, with a note tucked underneath.
Sun Yaoyang’s sense of smell is unusually sharp. My troops had barely been gone from the Shengshuang City territory for two hours before he mobilized his elite forces to pursue us in reverse. He likely guessed my intent to capture the ringleader first.
"It seems you prefer the hard way over the easy way!" Hearing this, Zhu Xun raised his hand in anger. Several slender snakes slithered out from the cuffs of his bat-wing sleeves, dropped to the ground, and began crawling toward Zhao Xuyun.
The return of the last group of Dark Blade spies, disguised as merchants, brought a bombshell piece of news to the Dark Blade Legion.
I must say, soldiers are truly different; their arm strength and physical capabilities are beyond ordinary. Photos that would be difficult for others to capture look exceptionally stunning when they take them.
Memory-eating worms! Is my memory loss entirely due to these creatures? But who could have infected me with them?
The Drillbur stared straight ahead, eyes wide, waiting for the perfect moment to strike. Without absolute certainty, making the first move easily exposes one's weaknesses.
Jiang Yecheng walked at the very front of the stretcher, his eyes fixed on his unconscious father. As he passed by Nan Xiang, he did not spare her a single glance.
"Am I truly ill-suited to be a member of the Demon Sect?" Phantom suddenly asked with a wry smile, interrupting Xie Yang’s thoughts. Even through that bitter smile, her seductive expression still struck a chord deep in his heart.
"Because this is an imperial decree! I have no choice but to obey! As the saying goes, if the sovereign commands a subject to die, the subject must die!" Song Moqing replied with such earnestness that it left Zhao Yuru fuming.
The lucky draw is truly excellent. If I had to exchange for them normally, one Shadow Demon would cost 100,000 points; four would cost a full 400,000 points.
According to Feng Ren, just repairing Jiang Feng’s dormitory consumed tens of thousands of combat credits' worth of metal materials, not to mention the entire sections of the corridor outside that had been destroyed.
Tong Wanli’s face grew increasingly grim. As the head of the Tong family, he was unwilling to believe there was a mole in his ranks. However, Su Ming’s suspicions were not baseless; thinking about it carefully now, this matter might indeed be related to an inside traitor.
Su Yu wanted to return the whip and continue wandering with his Frogadier, but the Frogadier blocked his path.
Yet, her rain arrows could not even scratch Dugu Liuli, let alone her primary-level water magic.
"Elder Feng said I should report to management and that you would assign me tasks. Could it be that my task is simply to taste tea?" Dugu Liuli laughed.
She felt that if she stayed, she would continue to be bossed around by Zhao Xuran. If she made even the slightest unconventional move, her brother would certainly intervene.
A figure, looking like a corpse, was unusually tall and emitted waves of putrid stench.
