Chapter Fifty-Two: Finish This Pack of Cigarettes

The young man's expression finally showed a hint of fear. Although Ye Feng and his group didn't have the best lineup, they had numbers on their side. The young man slowly pushed his chair away and cautiously moved toward the exit, thinking that the longer he could delay, the better. "Big brother, what do you want from me? I don't think I've offended you," he said timidly. Seeing Ye Feng and the others approach with such ferocity, he changed his address to 'big brother'...

The three ninja were dressed in ordinary wandering ninja attire, making it impossible to determine which faction they belonged to. All three appeared to be in their twenties—one tall and two short, with the tall one clearly the core of the group and the one who spoke.

Such situations had never occurred before, and even if they had, she would not have been able to figure out everything at the first moment.

Though her vision still couldn't see them clearly, it didn't matter anymore.

Xiahou Dun appeared, and like a delicacy, he drew the attention of Liu Bei and his men. They immediately abandoned their pursuit of the Cao army soldiers and rushed toward Xiahou Dun.

Tu Tian glared at Cao Dechun with a sinister expression and coldly snorted. As he spoke, a chilling, gleaming dagger went straight for Cao Dechun's heart. Tu Tian had come to kill; others could be spared, but the masterminds had to be eliminated. Among them, Cao Yin's father, Cao Dechun, was an absolute must-kill target.

He shook his head forcefully, wanting to rid himself of the trembling from before, but found his heart difficult to calm.

A branch of the legendary Qing Dynasty's Yongzheng Emperor's intelligence agency, the Sticky Rod Bureau, specializing in infiltration, assassination, and secret investigations.

Earlier, two Fire Style techniques, a Mist Concealment, and an Earth Style had consumed half his chakra. Now, with only half remaining, he could use Chidori one more time, and against a special jonin, Chidori was his only option.

"The loser must serve the victor tea and water, of course," Ben Beckman said, as if it were only natural.

Indeed, as you say, from ancient times to the present, no one has ever heard of a sect alone being enough to condemn a person to death. Even exterminating nine generations would not reach Yu Chen. We accept this courtesy, but will others? You saw yesterday's situation yourself.

Yuetang's big, watery eyes were full of tears. At this moment, I no longer cared how much she had concealed from me, because I believed that, eventually, the truth would come out. I was in no hurry.

He glanced at the two ivory tiles on Wei Wuyou's table and was slightly startled; it was just as he had anticipated.

"We must rescue General Liao, or sooner or later, we'll be defeated piecemeal!" The county captain of Qianzhong grabbed his companion, his tone heavy.

"What is wrong with you? I'm tired and want to rest for a while. Go do your own thing and leave me alone," I said impatiently.

Wushang and Liu the Monkey exchanged glances, their hearts uneasy. They didn't know whether Lu Wanxing would take the medicine or not, nor did they know what Li Tianlang meant by bringing these three girls. Hopefully, it wouldn't disrupt his plan.

Mo Yantang's strength was considered the weakest among the Mo family's Nascent Soul cultivators, but even Mo Yanming could not have injured him so severely in one move. The attacker must have at least reached the upper Nascent Soul stage.

The driver position belonged to the logistics department. When he reported in and learned that Tong Zhen was the department head, he realized his days would not be easy.

Hua Xuanji finally understood why the Crown Prince was so relieved at the end. It was clear from his initial act of playing dumb to stay safe—the Crown Prince was a clever man.

Their bodies seemed to be crushed by an invisible pressure, as if a mountain weighed upon them.

"The actual usage of the medicines doesn't match the financial expenditure," Wang Nuo said seriously to He Yanping.
