Chapter 57
Their commanding general was actually not dead! The Shu army instantly let out earth-shattering cheers, and their morale soared dramatically. Looking at the tornado-like barrier of energy protecting Guan Yu, Sima Yi understood immediately.
"Great General..." Inspired by Xu Ping's successive victories, Li Dingguo's staff officers could not help but develop a deep sense of respect for him.
Qin Ming immediately regretted it, because with a crisp "crack," another bolt of lightning struck him.
The monkey demon, seeing a lucrative deal coming its way, scratched its ears and cheeks with intense excitement and joy. It hurriedly opened the cosmos sack thrown over by Ye Feng, but the expression on its face instantly froze.
"I have basically figured it out. The plan should be to make these two have a bloody conflict with each other!" Luo Jiao said.
"I encountered it in the Weishui sea area. The Demon King's pirate ship was sailing all the way north, and for some reason, it didn't attack us," said the Boost pirate ship.
"There are two methods. First, find six brave warriors carrying Town Portal Gems and have them activate the gems so you can all return. Second, the adventurer can use a legendary divine skill: Teleport. Directly teleport from inside the body of Behemoth to the outside, and then descend from the high altitude."
Although the guards stationed around Yang Zhan were not wounded in vital spots, blood was flowing from their wounds, soaking through their uniforms and dripping down the armor plates onto the ground.
Ye Feng grabbed the half-dead Zuo Muyang and arrived at the back mountain. He thoroughly searched Zuo Muyang from head to toe and found the bronze fragment inside one of his cosmos sacks.
The frantic successor wailed like a phoenix being reborn from the ashes. A ball of fire instantly engulfed Qin Ming's entire body, converging into a massive fiery tornado.
Employing a two-pronged strategy, after capturing Wuzhou and Xinzhou, Zhao Gou did not allow the Song army to rest. Capitalizing on their momentum, he dispatched troops once again to attack Ruzhou. The main army marched out, heading east once more, as the forces from Xinzhou and Wuzhou pincered Ruzhou.
As soon as his roar finished, two soldiers rushed in and dragged the staff officer out with expressionless faces.
Just as Chanyeol had also prepared his skills and was about to launch an attack, he was stopped short by Suho's voice.
Following that, his face turned pale and dry, yet unnervingly, two patches of rouge were painted on his left and right cheeks, making him look even more bizarre. His eyes became dull and flat, bearing no resemblance to the eyes of a living person.
Murong Chenxi and Murong Xingyao asked Yue Li to stay for a few more days, saying they wanted to take her to live in that place for a while. The Blood Emperor readily agreed and suggested that the werewolf princes accompany them as well. The two brothers were puzzled, but had no reason to refuse.
Zhang Haichao warmly poured tea and offered cigarettes. After a brief greeting, he went out to buy fish, meat, and marinated side dishes, inviting his parents-in-law to stay for a simple meal.
Amidst his amazement, Tang Chen was also carefully observing the appearance of the Fire Demon Tree King and the surrounding environment.
After leaving, the two bodyguards drove Murong Qing toward the hotel where Lin Ya was staying.
"Hey! Tang Keer, let go of the boss together! She's going to die like this!" Ai Qi pulled on Tang Keer's arms and said.
Meanwhile, the battle in Chongqing was also exceptionally fierce. The Nationalist Government's division had long been prepared and rushed over the moment they received the order.
In the afternoon, despite the sweltering heat and the relentless sweat pouring down while standing in the shade of the trees, many people were still busy braving the scorching sun. Zhu Yuan brought one hundred tons of grain to Shahekou and handed it over to Ma Xiong. However, Ma Xiong did not have enough carts and wagons, so this grain would probably need to be transported in three trips.
A series of events indicated that Cinema City—which had once forced Golden Harvest and Shaw Brothers to unite in opposition—was now a thing of the past. Coupled with the recent rise of Win's Film Production, the landscape of the cinematic dynasty was quietly undergoing a transformation.
Michelle Lee was indeed a vase with a certain poise, but those large eyes of hers flashed not with rustic simplicity, but with utilitarian ambition. Casting her to play Qiu Nan would undoubtedly sink the investors.
"Senior? Who are you?" Li Rui was not an overly reckless person. Seeing his son castrated had previously driven him to strike in a fit of rage, but he was now gradually calming down.
And Wang Yu, after disappearing for a period of time, had returned with formidable power. Achieving the realm of a Demon General in a mere ten-thousand-plus years—such speed made even the Moon Demon King green with envy.
If she had followed Luo Dashan back then, what kind of life would she be living now? She probably would have been pampered to no end by him. Back in the day, even though Luo Dashan was poor, whatever she wanted, he would rack his brains to get for her.
By the morning of the fourteenth day, the vanguard troops led by Zhu Houzhao finally arrived at Timen Town. The commoners following behind were riding in carriages and horses, and it was estimated that basically all of them would arrive by the afternoon.
Walking along, they unconsciously arrived beneath a tall building. Standing there and looking up, only endless darkness met the eye.
Within the Hatred Heaven Demonic Palace, virtually every generation of the Hatred Heaven Demon Lord possessed a deeply tragic past. Some individuals even endured experiences so horrific that hell itself could not describe them—they could only be likened to an endless purgatory. Therefore, once every generation of the Hatred Heaven Demon Lord emerged into the world, it invariably brought about boundless slaughter.
Although she used to quite like Xu He—in fact, knowing that Luo Zhiming and Xu He were hanging out together hadn't made her particularly opposed to it, as she always felt that with Luo Zhiming reduced to his current state, Xu He was actually quite a suitable match for him—
"The one who loses will directly leave St. Noses Ying Noble Academy... How about that?" Xuan Lingyu boasted boldly.
Instantly, a blur of swords and spears flashed. After exchanging over a dozen intense blows in a split second, the two leaped back. Li Long landed steadily on the ground, while Zhu Wuneng staggered back several steps, making the difference in their strength immediately apparent.
Yet now, the son who mattered most to her had been turned directly into a cripple by Xiao Zheng. How could she possibly endure this?
"Brother-in-law, where are we going to hunt for treasure today?" Guo Yun said, caressing his tachi with reluctance to let go, eager to rush out of the county town right away for a thorough battle.
