Chapter 745: The Cornerstone of the Cycle is Not Benevolence and Righteousness, but Violence

"A night traveler can refrain from committing crimes, but cannot make the dogs stop barking." This means: A person walking on a night road, even if they can strictly discipline themselves and not commit crimes, still has no way to make the dogs in the alley stop barking at them.

Zhu Yijun stood on the Five Phoenix Tower outside the Zhaoyang Gate, wearing an extremely cold expression as he watched the Confucian scholar who was cursing him as a lawless tyrant. This person was the Vice Censor-in-Chief Wu Shilai.

Wu Shilai was of the Zhejiang Party, a native of Taizhou, Zhejiang, and a Jinshi from the 32nd year of the Jiajing reign. In the imperial court, he offended Yan...

Yang Wei was enjoying it happily, but as time passed, he felt some trouble, because this arm began to feel a bit numb, slowly starting to swell, and finally, both numbness and swelling attacked together. He felt waves of electric current continuously numbing him from his fingertips to his whole body; it was suffering from ischemia due to being pressed.

As for the Ghost-Faced Young Master being away on business that the other party mentioned, she didn't believe it at all, only thinking that they had a guilty conscience and were avoiding her.

"Do you bird-men have no other skills besides having great strength?" Zixiang was also very shocked! This Winged Man clearly only had the strength of the early Saint Realm, but his own strength had already reached the peak of the Saint Realm! Could it be that Winged Men specialize in physique?

This Ghost Barbarian Dragon considered himself highly skilled and the best candidate to complete this mission. After receiving the military order, he wandered around under the mountain in the guise of a Dragon Beast Demon, preparing to use himself as bait to lure this mysterious hunter into the trap so he could annihilate him in one fell swoop.

"Yeah, but she won't give me the chance! Forget it, everyone hurry up and sleep! We have a mission tomorrow!" Lun said.

Tattered rags covered the crooked doorway. The house was built of rotten wood that had long since decayed into a mess, looking like it was about to collapse. Ragged strips of cloth fluttered in the air, and there were pools of unknown filth on the ground.

But this time, Guo Jia did not stop his steps. Guo Jia realized that the people of Yizhou still did not have much understanding of the dangerous situation they were in; only by getting serious could they be forced into a corner and onto the negotiating table.

"Don't! Old Tang, we worked so hard to build this up, don't give up easily!" Milan pressed Old Tang's hand to stop him from making the call.

The others, having seen Zixiang's power, did not dare to act rashly, only surrounding Zixiang tightly and not daring to step forward.

A thousand years—Zixiang couldn't believe he had just said it casually, and now he had to face one or several thousand-year-old monsters. Just thinking about it was chilling. If they were a bit more handsome, maybe he wouldn't vomit; if they were truly unwatchable, then he estimated that before the fight even started, what he vomited out could drown his opponent.

"Devil, you are a devil. What exactly do you want to do?" Peter looked at Fang Zheng and roared in fear. The more afraid he was, the louder he yelled.

Specifically, questions like how much land/labor counts as one share? How to distribute dividends? etc., did not need everyone to ask; it was all proposed and answered by Cui Jun himself.

Raven Rachel did not agree, but she didn't oppose it either, maintaining an attitude of going with the flow and coping passively, consistent with her usual performance in participating in collective activities.

For this reason, Fang Zheng dragged out several corrupt officials, law-breaking merchants, English people, Wu people, Malay people, etc., whom he had prepared long ago.

"However, he is not here right now, but is refining weapons in a ground-fire refining room outside the city. You can take my token and go try. Whether you can succeed depends on yourself." The shopkeeper took out a token and handed it to Mu Li.

One could see Yao Yuanyuan and Feng Buyi crossing into the pitch-black vortex one after another. At that instant, their figures vanished instantly. Following a wave of silver light vibrating out from the vortex, they finally disappeared into the horizon.

The trees here were quite tall and straight, looking similar to a spruce forest. The spacing between the trees was very large, and besides thick fallen leaves on the ground, even shrubs rarely grew, let alone grass. ===== CHAPTER 746 =====
