Chapter 114: The Duel with Yang Mu

The competition arrived sooner than expected. Zhao Yuan had never imagined he would be facing Yang Mu, a prospect that left him feeling anxious. He knew that Yang Mu was a formidable opponent; despite his own recent growth, Yang Mu possessed a unique tactical style, and this match would be a true test of their wits.

"I never expected us to meet so soon. Since we are both striving for the same goal, there is no need for empty pleasantries. I hope you give this your absolute best—put your heart into it. Do not disappoint me, for if you do, I will certainly not forgive you. If there is nothing else to say, let us leave it at that; we both understand each other well enough."

"Heh, I’m kissing my own wife on the street; what business is that of anyone else?" Lin Yu chuckled, successfully distracting Liu Xiaoyan and feeling quite pleased with his cleverness.

Over these past few days, she had come to understand the true character of Ye Yuxin and the young Prince of the East.

Ye Shang’s fate was of his own choosing. No matter how much he loved Liuli, he should not have lost himself. In my heart, I knew that Liuli had shown mercy to Ye Shang. It seemed he held a place in her heart, for the memories of that lifetime were still so vivid.

Why go to such lengths? If this were discovered, how could the Prince ever show his face in society again?

I frowned, wanting to ask exactly what had happened, but seeing how frail Yuna appeared, I decided it would be better to return to the Yuanshan Tribe first and have Elder Luo examine her.

To think that this fellow had grown to such a level—it was truly astonishing.

Having said that, she unleashed the "Smile Like a Flower" charm, hoping to transform Brother Duan into a man of pure desire.

I smiled, though it was merely a reaction to my mother’s exaggeration. In her ears, however, it sounded as if I were interested in going on a blind date.

The pugilistic world belongs to those who live within it. Is Prince Duan’s world any different from the others?

"I’m so furious! Treating kindness like a donkey’s lungs... Go ahead and play with him then. I’m not so easily fooled, hmph." After saying this, Yue Lingshan stormed out to the deck to watch the scenery.

As Du Haoqi gently tapped his shoulder, Lu Chen had already strangled the final toxin molecule.

However, Cousins’ offense was far too simplistic. It was unclear whether this was due to his own overconfidence or his utter contempt for Haywood, who was guarding him.

"Old brothers, do not be careless! This monster’s physical body is incredibly resilient; we must use Daoist arts to destroy it!" The two giants of the Qi family immediately invoked a dark space, causing it to collapse instantly and descend upon Jiang Dong with ferocious intensity.

"Bang!" A muffled sound came from nearby, and one could see smoke rising from the object in 9S’s hand.

Behind them, the massive monster leaped up, its ghastly green eyes glaring fiercely at Lu Chen before it lunged forward.

Zhang Zhendong peeled back the mangled flesh and located the wounded artery. Taking advantage of the fact that Min Lianchun could not see, he immediately used his Wood-elemental Qi to nourish the wound.

Yet her character was restrained and composed. She possessed a multifaceted charm: calm, loyal, simple, playful, and thin-skinned.

For the sake of what they needed, they would not hesitate to sell items of great value that they personally disliked or found useless.

Their meeting here was not for celebration, but because each bore their own private burdens.

"As an overseer of the Holy Grail War, how could you possibly launch an attack on a Master!" Bazett rebuked Kirei Kotomine with fury.

"We must talk. If you run again, I will kill you." Ye Fei’s cold words reached his ears, causing Long Yangshan to deflate like a punctured ball, forcing him to sit down.

"My dear minister, why speak of such things? It was merely an interlude; there is no need for reprimand." Feng Yi waved his hand, dismissing the matter entirely.

Ye Fei’s words were a clear insult, instantly igniting their towering rage.

It was only because Uncle Qi of Fuyuan Peak was magnanimous that he did not hold it against Yaowan Peak. Had it been someone more narrow-minded, Yaowan Peak would not only have been denied their ten-fold compensation, but the entire mountain might have been razed to the ground.
