Volume 1, Chapter 54: Do You Acknowledge It or Not
Lord Liu looked slightly puzzled. "This blood-written letter mentions covering up for her aunt. Lady Lu, what on earth is she talking about?"
Lady Lu was consumed by shame and anger. If such a matter were to be made public, she would rather die on the spot! Moreover, with that despicable woman Song Qinghuan present, she would surely blurt the whole thing out.
Clenching her hands tightly, she remained silent for a long time.
Facing the attacks of the bandits and archers, the expressions of the fifty Nine-Dragon Guards remained unchanged. With one hand, they gripped thin steel wires to scale the heights, while with the other, they brandished their sharp weapons, swatting down the volley of arrows flying toward them.
The mastery of the power of space and time was an essential quality for Star Lord powerhouses. Yet, no matter which of these Star Lords it was, their attainments in the power of space and time fell far short of Su Zhuo's.
After interacting with the imperial capital troops, Zhao Hu found them all to be exceedingly arrogant. Now that he was tasked with recruiting logistics soldiers—though acting under orders from above—he feared it would be impossible to get along with them amicably.
In contrast, Ding He and the others were much calmer. After all, they had witnessed with their own eyes the divine skill Ye Feng had unleashed. When they traveled to the Divine Martial Continent, the Alliance had faced a crisis with countless casualties, and it was solely by relying on the Reincarnation Technique that Ye Feng had saved everyone's lives.
An Zheng had killed Kou Ba, which meant the Great Bandit Hall could no longer tolerate him. Therefore, Kou Liu, who had previously entertained the notion of taking An Zheng as a disciple, would likely strike to kill the very next time he saw him.
Returning to his room at the garrison, Su Zhuo took out the crystalline long saber and the dragon-patterned jade pendant to examine them closely.
By the afternoon of the following day, Han Bailin was released. However, having spent a single night under arrest, his once-handsome face was now pale and emaciated. His gaze appeared somewhat vacant and his expression dull, as though he had endured unspeakable horrors within the prison walls.
Su Run said with a smile, "Seeing the two of you so deeply in love brings me great joy," though his heart was actually filled with bitterness.
"Boom!" Just as Su Zhuo's spiritual sense reached the city center, a wave of spiritual sense attack suddenly struck. His perceptive abilities allowed him to evade the mental assault just in time, and reacting in a split second, he shattered the mental attack with a single blow.
Only then did Lu Ning bashfully open the fitting room door and step out. She hardly dared to look at Lin Feng, feeling that dressing like this was simply too inappropriate.
"None of you should make things difficult for Qingxue. She is very kind-hearted and unlike the Devouring Ancestor. Divine Spirit Bird, come with me to the divine temple. Since you have met the two of them, you can explain the situation much more clearly," Xue Hao said.
That call, which connected only to be immediately hung up, plunged Wang Cheng's heart into profound agony. His gaze began to dim, and the smile on his lips turned bitter.
"Then I would rather remain human, choosing neither to be a great white shark nor a muddy swamp," I shook my head in refusal.
Furthermore, it was Long Yu who had given the order for the Dragon Guards to capture him, rendering any struggle on Bu Fan's part completely futile. It was far better to simply surrender and save everyone the trouble. Seeing that Bu Fan had already made his stance clear, the Dragon Guards refrained from launching an attack against him.
That ghost, which had been tangling with her in their past life, was facing the Grand General and had already spotted him appearing right before her.
"Yes, and not only that. It is rumored that a prominent figure in the Azure Dragon Hall was killed—someone referred to as Third Master He. I am currently having my informants dig into the specific details. I called you here today primarily concerning this matter. Don't you think the police department should take some action?" Wang Haihai asked anxiously, looking at He Chuan.
He dialed Liu Shan's number directly. It wasn't that he didn't want to call Shen Xingchen, but rather that Shen Xingchen was far too astute; the moment Lin Feng showed the slightest flaw, she would immediately perceive that something was amiss.
Such a formidable character actually had to look to Lin Feng's mood and take his lead—it completely shattered Su Lingyue's worldview.
The two of them hit it off instantly. In less time than it takes to brew a cup of tea, they had already polished off half a bottle of osmanthus wine.
