Chapter 258: Landscape Creation

After receiving Shen Siyuan's praise, Dou Dou left together with Xiao Yue.

Shen Siyuan lay in bed, yet sleep had completely abandoned him.

Recalling Dou Dou's words just now, he realized his previous considerations had indeed been insufficient; it was time to consider the Art of Landscape Creation.

The dead souls he had previously drawn into the Ten Thousand Souls Banner were merely made to slumber within the banner; this was, in fact, only the most convenient method.

A true Ten Thousand Souls Banner can be used for cultivation, troop training, and punishment.

In reality, if they had been swept aside so decisively by a three-to-zero score, the audience might have been more accepting.

"This matter has nothing to do with Lin Mo! The one who killed your lackey was not him!" Gao Zhiyong struggled helplessly.

Wu Liangming fell ill with fright upon returning home; he missed several days of court attendance and directly requested sick leave.

As for which realm of the Martial Emperor the opponent had reached, given the situation over there, it was certainly impossible to ascertain accurately.

The remaining final "Winter Interval" should be no different; it is merely a matter of how many times.

Lin Wanwan first stated her position, then feigned ignorance and asked a counter-question, shifting the topic to prevent Tang Zhiyan from continuing his inquiry.

This person was none other than Wu Sangui, one of the three leaders of the Guanning Army, who also concurrently served as the General of Shanhai Pass, responsible for the city's defense and security.

Those soul forms, each as if existing in another dimension, had no interaction with the living, nor did they exhibit the terrifying and ghastly behaviors found in folk tales; they were all dull, and would vanish automatically after existing for a period.

Even more excited than her were naturally Gu Yun and the committee members—Gu Yun had just summoned the base's decision-making layer to let them witness history with their own eyes.

Upon arriving before Su Mei, Jiang Zheng asked her to extend her hand, then lightly scratched her hand back.

The grievances, unwillingness, and resentment toward Chi Yanfeng in her heart seemed to be easily dissolved by the child's arrival.

"That is true. Although I have not had direct contact with Bai Rusong's methods, I have heard much of them; rashly making an enemy of him would certainly bring no benefit. However, as for whether it is worth it, it seems that should be for me to say." After Sima Ye finished speaking these words, Pei Ran lowered her head even lower, daring not to look him in the eye.

The atmosphere at the scene became very awkward; the several couples who were singing had already turned off the music, and no one dared to make a sound; the silence was terrifying.

"What a terrifying person; did he truly accumulate only one lifetime?" Song Shixue felt somewhat bewildered; that battle had exceeded her expectations. Especially regarding that youth, he was simply a black box; no matter how she probed, she could only glimpse a corner.

Immediately, she sat on the couch, reached out to take the paste from the table, raised her head, and quickly took a few sips to dispel the depression in her chest.

Gazing at those pairs of eager eyes, Chen Chen opened her mouth; she very much wanted to tell them that Wang Qilang had not blamed or despised her at all; on the contrary, he had gently comforted her.

Previously, he was very at ease leaving the child solely in Qin Rou's care; to avoid forming an attachment, he also tried to reduce contact with George to avoid reluctance. After all, that child was good-looking and truly too lovable.

The other five leaves were the same; however, what swirled around them was not lightning, but other types of smoke, these smokes each having different colors and their own distinct characteristics.

Inside the transport ship were the four remaining infantry divisions, one artillery division, and one cavalry division of the Sixth Army, deployed from Wang Yue. They would not directly participate in the battle for Dongdu, but were responsible for guarding the Chiba Base in the rear to avoid ambushes by Zongheng, which would leave the Wang Yue army in a position of being attacked from both front and rear.

A powerful repulsive force generated around Gu Chen; since the electricity between his two hands had been hastily drawn by him, it possessed little defensive power; only the brilliant electricity between his two hands was seen shattering instantly, with green light arcs fading as the electricity broke.
