Chapter 87: Keep Her Here

Faking taking medicine—she had done this countless times during her time as an undercover agent, so convincingly that even drug lords never suspected a thing. She didn’t mind showing off a little in front of these noble ladies.

A few days passed, and Chen Yang grew increasingly bored. Though senior year in high school was supposed to be important, she had already mastered everything in the textbooks—maybe not enough for the very top universities, but certainly good enough for a prestigious one.

Wasn’t she supposed to have waited so long just for the prospect of marriage? How could she remain so calm, not anxious at all, even when slandered in this way?

The former High Priest Xu Zhao, after leaving the palace, was settled in a residence within the inner city, guarded day and night by palace guards. Though it was said to be for his rest, in reality, it was a form of house arrest.

As soon as the doors closed, Li Chengfeng withdrew his supporting hand from Lu Ningning and moved to the other side.

This was a world ruled by the Spirit Emperor, an entire continent surrounded by endless black waters, like a massive prison from which no one could escape. The only faith allowed was in the Spirit Emperor; nothing else was permitted.

Gu Du thought that, given the difference in material, the effects would certainly differ as well. In the Kingdom of Ze, the Soul Vessel Box might serve only as a container, but in the Spirit Kingdom, it likely enhanced the soul army’s spiritual power.

According to the report sent back by Qian Huan, the allied forces’ army of nearly ten million all had at least fifth-tier strength, and most were from special units. About two-fifths were sixth-tier, but the number of seventh-tier troops remained unknown.

The battle against Dong had long since moved beyond one-on-one skirmishes; it was now a colossal battlefield stretching for thousands of miles. The northernmost front lay at the border between Bingzhou and Liangzhou; the southernmost, at the edge of Yingchuan County in Yuzhou and the jurisdiction of the capital. Hundreds of millions of soldiers from both sides were arrayed along the lines, locked in a tense standoff.

Chen Song could listen no longer. He put down his binoculars and turned to look. Was this guy up to something indecent? He had no proof, but couldn’t dismiss the suspicion.

Just then, Du Chenfei suddenly heard a series of noises coming from behind him.

Thunder rolled across the sky as the Lazy Drunkard twisted and turned, protected by the feather fan, stepping onto the land of the Western Star.

The stadium was divided into outdoor and indoor sections. The exhibit booths were all outdoors, while the indoor area was allocated to the staff of Zhanzhong Group for use as offices—screening manufacturers, discussing product details, negotiating deeper cooperation—and they even brought in several coffee machines for appearances.

By now, both Kong Deji and Sergey had removed their large backpacks.

At this moment, the Gray Wolf was expressing gratitude. Even if Bai Wuchang had nine times the cunning, he still could not unravel the mystery behind it.

Numerous vertical elevators, as thin as strands of silk, connected the upper and lower tiers of the city. Magnetic levitation buses sped along, and passengers could take in the entire cityscape along the journey.

This was how Bai Jianqi entered Wu Xuemei’s view: with strong planning, hands-on abilities, and organizational skills. With a bit of polishing, he could well become one of Wu Zhen’s main generals.

Sankara’s mission was to assassinate the high command of the Sirius Warriors; Asura’s task was to rescue important figures from the Pegasus System; while Yang Tai and Lev Mila carried out another mission—underground operations.

In summary, under such conditions, many submarine crew members, upon completing their missions and coming ashore, would first seek out fresh vegetables and fruit.

The Nine-Bend Yellow River Formation combined the advantages of the Nine Palace Eight Trigrams Formation and the Three Talents Formation—a marvel of ingenuity.

The defensive barrier used by Aldi was indeed formidable; so far, it had never been breached.

Zhang Ya stared at the wooden Bajie figurine on the ground, keeping the robot Bajie in the corner of his eye. His fists clenched tightly, and he bit down hard on his lower lip.

Years ago, he might have thought as a king, but after Zhang Li’s unexpected involvement, his kingdom was king in name only. The blow had been too great, and he had lost the decisiveness that a king should possess.

It wasn’t just him; the other generals of the First Army of the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army felt the same. They all thought it was a waste to use shells and bombs on the Thai forces.

“Elder Yan, who do you think will win between these two sides?” Elder Huang was equally stunned. Though he was a chief elder, his experience was limited; the techniques used by these warriors were beyond his imagination.

A barrage of gunfire struck the Japanese trenches, sending up plumes of dust. Many Japanese soldiers were hit and fell silent within the trenches, while the rest could only cower, not daring to raise their heads.

The gluttonous beast, upon hearing the Beast God’s words, first glared fiercely at Lin Yang, then nuzzled hard against the Beast God’s hand, filled with reluctance.

At last, he voiced his “conspiracy.” Chen Bao trusted that this kind of plot would be difficult to refuse; it was practically an open scheme. The difference in their understanding of time was simply too vast. He would never grasp how differently a creature with a hundred-year lifespan and one that lived for a hundred thousand years perceived time.

As the crown prince, he was supposed to assist the emperor in handling state affairs. Yet unexpectedly, the emperor had reassigned him from Chang’an, and today’s words hinted that the emperor might be contemplating appointing a new crown prince!

For Sean, however, this was pure luck. Even with the Mind Gem’s protection, the chaotic power surging from Alexandra left him uneasy. Having the black mist as a buffer at least gave him some experience.

The man smiled indifferently and, escorted by the prison guards, walked step by step toward Cell Number One.

She seemed to behave in this manner for the first time; it had never happened before.
