Chapter 124: The Campaign Against the Huai Barbarians

Hearing that Ji Ran had made full preparations, Meng Di let out a sigh of relief. After some consideration, he said, "Upon careful deliberation, I fear that sending Liu Xia Tuo to Huaiyi is not a wise move. The Huaiyi territory is home to numerous tribes, and their strength is quite formidable. Mere warfare will not suffice to bring them to submission, so I wish to go and inspect the situation personally before deciding."

This was a decision Meng Di had reached after weighing the options repeatedly. If he were to send Liu Xia Tuo directly, once they clashed with the locals...

The fact that Jungle was searching for the Silver King had been clearly conveyed. If their target was indeed Yashiro Isana, then they might also be aware of the airship.

The opponent’s disdain infuriated Mumen Rider, who lunged at Hammerhead with a fierce, imposing aura.

An old man with bulging temples walked out of the room, holding a long-stemmed pipe. "Have you brought the people the master requested?" the old man asked, taking a puff of smoke.

Shen Shisan had no choice but to run back with her, and the guide, concerned about his two thousand yuan, could only scramble after them.

Chu Ye glanced at Chu Kun. In her memories, her younger brother had always worn a mask of righteousness; he had never been so innocent. Seeing him now, she recalled his childhood, when he too had possessed a hint of guilelessness. Perhaps it was the lust for power that had transformed an innocent young boy into the bloodthirsty, wicked man he was today.

Opening the letter, Shen Yunxi scanned it briefly before folding it back up and returning it to the envelope.

At this moment, Jiang Zhe could no longer concern himself with losing face. A virgin is a virgin, he thought; at least that’s better than being beaten to a pulp. I may be embarrassed now, but I’ve avoided a thrashing.

Yin Le quickly said, "General Murong, I’ve brought Ye Rong back!" Fortunately, Murong Shang was there, providing her with a chance to change the subject.

Wei Zheng swept a glance at her, her delicate brows knitting slightly. "Where have you been?" The question sounded casual, yet it seemed tinged with suspicion. Her attitude was inscrutable and demanded careful interpretation, though it was unmistakably laced with anxiety.

But if his memory served him correctly, she should have died sixteen years ago. Her corpse had been hung upon the city gate for all to see. How could she possibly still be alive? Could he have truly mistaken someone else for her?

Adams was full of righteous indignation; the man felt he had been wronged. However, this was also because he was very familiar with his boss, Zhou Quan, and knew that Zhou Quan wasn't actually angry, which was why he dared to act so lethargic.

There was no room for doubt on this point; they were capable of maintaining a good balance in these matters.

For Zhou Quan, it really was just as it seemed. He felt that his life was going quite well, and the start of his global voyage had been incredibly smooth.

"So Sasuke, what do you intend to do next?" Itachi asked, striking Orochimaru with his Susanoo.

Dongfang Chen looked at him with astonishment. He truly couldn't believe that this guy had actually eaten the food cooked by Beiming Ye.

When Gu Hesheng returned, the house had regained its tranquility, and everything was as usual. He had no idea what had transpired in his home.

"Second son, come in. I have something to say to you." Madam Luo did not ask about Ye Zhan’s upcoming departure, but instead called him into her bedroom.

The Joseon soldiers retreated, and a short while later, a squad of Joseon cavalry emerged from Majiakou, also waving white flags.

There were few things capable of trapping her, Nangong Li, and this creature possessed little combat power. The fact that she had to rely on illusions to trap her, while using blood leeches to absorb Han Cheng’s blood, showed that her abilities were mediocre at best.

Yang Chun’s mother shouted curses, berating Xinghua, Dong Liang, and the Dong family, drawing all the neighbors out to watch the spectacle.

Gu Qingge felt a beam of intense light that made it impossible for her to open her eyes, but the next second, a pair of warm hands covered them.

At this point, the Qigong master finally abandoned all pretexts, clearly intending to kill and rob.
