Suppressing the North and Displaying Might - Chapter 160: The Wedding (Part Two)

"So that is why General Li suddenly headed to the Northern Battle Continent back then." Lin Xuan finally came to a realization. When Li Qiutong left, he had kept it strictly confidential. Lin Xuan only knew that Li Qiutong had gone to the Northern Battle, but had no idea why.

Lin Hai chimed in with a teasing tone, "Brother Li, I heard there are a lot of beauties in the Northern Battle—all blonde-haired and blue-eyed, with fair skin, gorgeous looks, long legs, and stunning figures. Did any of them catch your eye?"

Prompted by Lin Hai's question, Li Qiutong's mind instantly flashed back to that heart-pounding scene by the cold pool.

"Brother, we're talking about serious matters here. Stop messing around," Lin Ai scolded Lin Hai loudly.

However, speaking of which...

Perhaps he had grown accustomed to following in Abdullah's footsteps; perhaps he truly believed that the Sumerian mythology was a true reflection of history; perhaps he also harbored a desire for revival and power. But now, he had lost everything—his life, his dreams, and his love.

Yet my family was still in the hands of Jin Jiulong. Facing the choice between my family and myself, I suppose I had no way out. I was already contemplating what I ought to do. I saw the eyes of the middle-aged man; his face was wreathed in smiles, and his gaze was as unfathomable as the ocean.

"Then, what about His Majesty the Emperor?" Leng Xianning looked at her with amusement. It turned out that Hua Hao had been plotting this, but wasn't she herself just an ordinary mortal?

"How does the Master know that I will bring disaster to the world? I have always had a clear conscience, holding my head high before heaven and earth!" Hua Huo suddenly said loudly.

He sneered and rushed toward the wall. Since the hotel rooms all had the same layout, the light switches were naturally in roughly the same location.

The sky outside was gradually growing dark. She had waited for quite a while, yet Chong Xi still had not returned, filling her heart with a sense of unease.

Very well, Brother Hailong finally knew what he should be doing. Tao Ran closed her phone and sighed.

Vanya glanced over, and she believed that this glance was a true look—one filled with lingering affection and anticipation. She slowly closed her eyes and began to remove her outer cloak.

The scar of eternity surged toward the pitch-black land like a volcanic eruption, and the torrent of ultimate truth behind him drew ever closer, as if about to submerge him. Yet the scar of eternity still wore a twisted smile, as though he had encountered the happiest thing in the world.

Fu Zhan glanced at him. They had been in the Pantheon for a very long time and often saw Jia Ruo.

"So it was your mischief, Skull!" Shi Xiaofeng was furious. Skull gave an apologetic smile. "I am terribly sorry, Mr. Shi. I had to use a foolish method to make you stay once more." Shi Xiaofeng looked at him, waiting to see just how foolish his method was this time.

Looking at Li Litian, Su Jun's mind suddenly sparked with a mischievous idea, as she seemed to have thought of a rather good plan.

Whether it was the Demon of Worldly Chaos, Velagoth, or even the previous Beaudren, all of them had chosen the latter.

The man breathed a sigh of relief. He had won back his thirty-dollar "insurance," meaning he broke even for the hand. Seeing Shi Xiaofeng lose two thousand dollars in one go, he shifted to feeling sympathetic.

"You are not allowed to get up!" An angry male voice rang out. Ming Fan and Ming Jing turned around simultaneously to look at the doorway.

Shi Xiaofeng burst into laughter. "You're willing to wear them? You said it yourself!" With that, he unzipped his travel bag and actually pulled out two bikinis—brightly colored and seductively styled.

Feng Qibo nodded. Without money, naturally one couldn't afford to be extravagant. Sometimes, money was safer in someone else's hands.

"That thing is a temporary communication crystal," Ingmoll said, pointing to a huge, spherical green crystal in the distance as he spoke to Sheris and Lin Wei.

Valoria was shocked. At Pavator Academy, the position of professor was almost exclusively held by the academy's elders.

The laboratory handed the data for the trident weapon over to the forge, and Locke sent a gargoyle to retrieve it. After testing it out in the plaza, he felt it was quite good.

Before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted once more by Qin Bukong, who said, "I think there seems to be some sound coming from beneath the sinkhole."

"Phew, thank goodness the Brits couldn't help themselves and declared war on the Boers. Otherwise, relying on us to hike all the way to Pretoria and convince the Boers that Britain had declared war would have been practically impossible. It's a coin toss whether we could even make it there within the mission deadline," Mia said to Diana, who had just returned from scout duty looking battered and exhausted.
