Chapter 60

Deng Ken began to prepare.

He would take many of Britain’s elite troops with him this time, so he had to arrange defenses in advance, assigning Ke Weito to lead the army and garrison Bostcastle—this was the western gateway of the British Isles; as long as Bostcastle held, Southampton would be secure.

Moreover, the Saxons had not yet finished fighting the Picts; rumors said they had lost many elite warriors to the legendary Black Sword Warrior, whose legend tied into certain myths, likely belonging—

As a behind-the-scenes creator, he did not need to mind his image like some idol stars, nor fear offending others.

Before reaching the hospital, he spotted Song Cian sitting motionless at a distance, then walked over to ask.

A horrifying wound was exposed—not from blade or sword, but as if a hook had torn the flesh out from within.

The flag, symbolizing a nation’s glory and pride, fluttered gently against the backdrop, accompanied by the president’s deep, steady voice echoing throughout the hall.

“Boom!” The ghost fire struck some obstacle and exploded, flames shooting skyward; then aerial shuttles arrived to extinguish the fire, while bystanders laughed around.

At fifteen, Meng Rang, through his own efforts, climbed step by step into officialdom and served as Chief Clerk in the commandery.

At the moment of impact, the Mapesha Crystal Sword shattered into countless crystal shards, instantly striking Shen Qiu’s body.

She sincerely wished to thank Rong Ruo; he had saved over a hundred lives of the Yuan family—her own life would not be too great a price.

She had already eaten at home; seeing her father and brother brought her joy, and she had eaten quite a bit—but now she could not swallow a single bite.

The long-suppressed fury within Lu Yu surged suddenly to his heart, his dark eyes flickering with a terrifying madness.

“There are so many snake corpses on the ground; if the divine beast appears just as they arrive, they’ll assume the snakes were killed by them,” Xuan Ye said.

“Don’t worry about that. By the way, if there’s truly no room to maneuver over there, you might as well come back.”

Meanwhile, Qiu Liehuo’s true body drifted aimlessly, falling, falling endlessly from the sky, landing upon the snowy mountain where he had just clashed with Optimus Prime.

Lu Zhen, muttering silently to himself, wandered through the dilapidated slums under the afternoon sun, his target the notice board in this district, where information on all recent major events was posted.

“Big sister, you’ve been gone from the house—don’t you know how much our third sister has changed? Now our third sister can dig out people’s eyeballs and steal them,” Jing Ziqing sneered. No one could tell if her words targeted Jing Xuerou or Jing Xiyue.

He muttered incantations, waving his staff and pointing at the three three-headed hellhounds—his gesture made clear: even desertion in battle would mean annihilation. The three hellhounds instantly understood. With grim resolve, they turned and charged once more toward Qiu Liehuo and Xiao Tianquan.

Though Qiao Nuan and Yang Mi’s departure had deterred media from confronting them under the previous heat, many still secretly took photos to send back to their companies for press releases later.

Lin Yuan naturally refused outright; Yunzhou was Xiliang’s territory, and if Shan Yu was ruthless, she would be eliminated immediately as a political rival. Even without Shan Yu, once she left the emperor’s side, her power base had long been dismantled by him—she had not a shred of self-defense left. She was the mother of the Crown Prince; Ye Xiuxin was her precedent.

After brief adjustment, I finally grew accustomed to Xiyue and myself, utterly naked. Xiyue led me down the giant rock; the moment my feet touched the ground, the rock vanished, replaced by a towering, ancient tree.

He was first the emperor of Da Qin, and only secondly the father of Tuoba Qi. He could not tolerate his son challenging him on political matters.

“You don’t dare. You can’t even bear to admit hatred. You won’t even face the problem and consult Duan Shanshan for solutions. What else do you dare do?” Li Jiayu glared at him.
