What commander?” Yan Luoluo didn’t understand—even Liu Shu and the others called her father “Old Yan,” peers addressing peers—why would anyone call her “commander”?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though Du Qiangwei’s surface remained calm, her inner depths had erupted into a storm—especially when Lin Feng descended gracefully from the second floor using the Air Dance Technique, looking like a god, stirring even her usually icy heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Due to the rain, the vast street held no one except Tian, lost in thought.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nine steps forged the formation; in that instant, heaven and earth seemed crushed under an invisible hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liang Ziyan’s heart jolted—when had Nan Gong Yan walked over? How had she not noticed? Could Nan Gong Yan walk without making a sound?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“She’s doing this on purpose—even Tiya You was fooled. I’ll help you this time. Tiya You’s skills mean nothing to the Empire, but they’re excellent for you. Still, she’s dangerous. You can use her, but stay wary,” said Valenya, her expression grave.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though the clothing store owner’s actions were perfectly reasonable, to others’ eyes, they carried an inexplicable absurdity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But no answer came. Lina noticed Lin Feng’s anomaly—then a tidal wave of aura erupted from his body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The winning team will receive a ‘No-Tear Gold Medal’ in the final name-tag ripping round!” Director Chen Hao said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I want all information about the Four Sword Saints Formation. Set your price,” Ning Yixiao said without hesitation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When he spoke these words, the Nine-Colored Ancestor stared blankly at Lin Fan, thinking internally: This Lin Feng is really making a bold demand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment, Qu Lingxue’s fingers twitched slightly, then she opened her eyes, looking at Mei Sanye and Feng Chen Xiao, nervously asking: “Master, Big Brother, I—I—” Too nervous, she stumbled over her words.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Enough, enough, stop this nonsense. If I listen to you any longer, I’ll vomit up yesterday’s meal.” He suddenly hoisted Shui Hongqiu onto his shoulder and walked slowly into the valley. Shui Hongqiu still stammered incoherently, when Mei Sanye dragged him unceremoniously into the valley.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After bidding farewell to Li Shiyun, Ling Zhiyuan and He Meixiang got into a car and left the Ledisa Western Restaurant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Those around murmured loudly, their mocking words falling plainly into Chen Danqing’s ears. Even with his gentle nature, he now felt indignant for the boy and wanted to teach those few a lesson.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Back then, he unleashed his strongest sword strike, nearly destroying the primordial force of an entire world—imagine how powerful it was.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment, deep within the Guhuang Mountains, Ta Wu Xu’s gaze was razor-sharp; the teleportation talisman before him was nearly complete.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The pillar was entirely white, its very top crowned with a flame that burned eternally, never extinguished.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After hearing the dial tone on the line, the vagrant’s face turned ashen, his mind buzzing blankly, overwhelmed with helplessness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Legends say the Break-Realm Thunder Pearl possesses the power to destroy a world—that’s why it bears its name—and even can kill Saint Emperor-level beings. Though this pearl isn’t that terrifying, it’s still enough to make half-step Break Realm experts retreat in fear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Thank you all greatly. Once we return to Cangyue City, rewards will be distributed according to merit,” Chu Shangfeng laughed heartily, triumphant. He spat out a shower of blue mist, like raindrops, which settled upon the Chu family members.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Three-colored divine light swept forth—wherever it passed, the advancing warriors seemed to have their fates severed anew: flesh dissolved, souls turned to ash, as if fate itself had been cut again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gao Fei called Cheng Haitao and Zhou Keshuang, inviting them out for tea. If there was anyone in Fenghuang City Cheng Haitao and Zhou Keshuang absolutely had to meet, Gao Fei was unquestionably the first. Their current social status was inextricably tied to him.\u003C\u002Fp>",1001,"2026-06-19T21:28:29.248Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","8dda0c4c3b3acf06fddfa18457a9bc0f84d28857120a0af52f71f1ade01b6ff4","even-a-gentleman-must-be-careful-chapter-825","even-a-gentleman-must-be-careful-chapter-823",864,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Feven-a-gentleman-must-be-careful-cover.jpg"]
