Chapter 115: A Pack of Small Fry

As soon as Zhao Ling'er spoke these words, the expressions of those around her shifted slightly. In truth, they hadn't thought much about it at the time; they were simply overjoyed at the prospect of doing so much for Zhao Yuan, wondering if he might eventually come to help them if he ever found his own path.

"But if you aren't willing to speak up, he will never know. Everything you're doing now holds very little meaning for him. Instead of this, why wouldn't you just reveal what you knew from the very beginning?"

Zhao Ling'er glanced at Ye Yu'er beside her, her eyes carrying a hint of a smile, as if she were able to...

Aguli dared not delay. He hurriedly led his subordinates out of the city, and sure enough, no sooner had they passed through the gates than they caught sight of the Holy Son’s black dragon carriage.

Nine of them—that alone was enough to give Bu Qianhuai a headache. He feared drawing individuals who were utterly useless, and with the added pressure of completing missions, the difficulty level had spiked instantly.

However, not long after she arrived, Liu Yan dragged her out of the manor. Taking a "Ground-Shrinking Talisman" that could span a thousand miles in a single step, she brought Bo Yanhe to the Ghost Abyss, a place far, far away from the Imperial Capital.

"You're awake! Did you have a nightmare?" Hearing the movement, Di He turned back. When his gaze fell upon her face, he frowned.

Li Huanyu struck first. Gripping his sword with both hands and stepping into a lunge, he slashed downwards: "Cloud-Turning, Rain-Covering, Sea-Sky Slash!" Ru Fentian followed closely behind. It was not sword energy, but a water-blade thrust directly toward Ye Weiyang’s throat, unstoppable as an arrow released from a bow.

A-Jiu’s gaze dimmed. In her father’s heart, no matter how much she weighed, she couldn't possibly outweigh the empire of the Qian Kingdom. Otherwise, why were so many of her dowry guards dismissed from the Southern Frontier General’s mansion? She would always be able to dig up some clues from those people.

Upon hearing this, Director Han was incensed. He immediately ordered his subordinates to move out, seal the villa, and take away everyone inside.

Shen Yang’s work alone left her feeling baffled. When they met again, he was riding in a military vehicle—what kind of background did he truly have?

Many within the National Olympic Committee believed that collaborating with the Yangyang Sports Center would help Chinese athletes secure more gold medals. As for the specifics of the partnership, they remained undecided, as they knew very little about the center itself.

With the news released by Brynhildr, almost every faction in the Western World had heard that Li Yunmu had returned severely wounded. This left everyone with even less favor for that mysterious region in the Eastern Domain.

Once one attempts to regulate their internal energy to suppress the poison, the silver needle at the waist will pierce the meridians without mercy, causing the blood and qi to surge in reverse, rupturing the meridians and making life worse than death.

The Second Madam took a few deep breaths and looked at Li Mufeng again before speaking. "Actually, Li Mufeng and I have known each other for a long time. Even before I married the Master, I knew him. At that time, we were deeply in love, but it was a pity he had no money, and he could only watch helplessly as my parents sold me into a brothel."

Qian Xun narrowed her eyes, watching the smile on his lips bloom bit by bit, yet that smile never reached the depths of his eyes. Those dark, somber orbs remained as cold as frost.

Everyone looked at Fenghua with shared hatred, unaware that her words were not meant for them. Leaning back in her chair, Fenghua gripped Lan’s clothes tightly. Watching the Silver Dragons, whose eyes seemed ready to burst into flames, she offered a sincere apology, confessing that she had simply run back to seek help after stirring up trouble.

"Five matches, five defeats. I competed with Fenghua in alchemy; I had no chance of winning. No, anyone who competes with Fenghua in alchemy has no chance of winning." As if in a dream, the former mad Taoist City Lord repeated this statement.

After the meal, Chu Zhaoyang exchanged a few words with Chu Liangrao before returning to his courtyard to change.

It was a pity that she had been so worried about the Princess of Jin that she hadn't been able to go over and take a look at the spot where the Princess had fallen.

Qian Xun raised an eyebrow, only to see the fox give a dry laugh. "The Commander is indeed formidable."

"Damn it! Old man here tells you, with me around, don't even think about courting death! I don't approve!" The Donkey bit down on the silver needle, his expression one of fearless defiance.
