Chapter 76: Companions on the Journey

Mudi looked quiet and dazed, but in truth she was a decisive person.

When she realized she didn't need to abandon anything—only to stop blindly following her parents' footsteps and to try discovering more possibilities for herself—she made her decision.

Mudi hugged the iron Gunlance and said to the craftsman: "Mr. Craftsman, I've decided to try the Gunlance. Will you sell me this one?"

The Dragon Race craftsman glanced at her and said gravely: "No."

Liu Zhangyuan and Liu Qingyue hesitated, then agreed to Liu Qingming's proposal, reluctantly withdrawing.

"China was a country from my past life, very similar to the Tang Dynasty Peter mentioned," Su Luoman smiled sweetly at him, speaking half-seriously, making him even more confused.

"Yes, my lord," Marcus dared not be disrespectful; he bowed deeply, then slowly stepped back out of the room, gently closing the 'Gate' behind him.

Jin Qing had long wanted to go, and now that Ye Weian had brought it up, how could she refuse? But just after taking a few steps with Ye Weian, Jin Qing's hand hanging at her side was quietly grasped by Ye Weian.

The giant was simply too huge—this reminded Yan Qing of sumo wrestlers on TV: his upper body bare, every inch of skin gleaming oily, his features squeezed together by layers of fat, utterly lacking in beauty.

She unstrapped the pre-adjusted bow, nocked an arrow, and fired—the entire process took less than six seconds. To the out-of-province troops climbing the slope below, the sky above suddenly darkened, while a chilling wind howl echoed through the air.

Good—this pain reminded her of the mistake she'd made in misjudging people. Over these years, she hadn't missed the signs of something wrong; she simply refused to think deeply, escaping the truth. Fortunately, she'd been given a rebirth, arriving in this glorious Tang Dynasty, where at least no one here wanted to chop her into pieces and harvest her organs.

Xiao Ming nodded expressionlessly. After a while, the meeting officially began; Situ Aotian slowly walked onto the stage, and the entire hall erupted in applause. Situ Aotian nodded, then sat down—the conference officially commenced.

After entering high school, there was a monthly exam. Last month's diagnostic test had inserted a third party between the two of them; Lin Xiaoxiao now gathered all her courage, determined to avenge this month's exam—though honestly, she had nothing truly shameful to avenge; she simply wanted to motivate herself.

The newly split insects immediately scattered, each searching a pitch-black tunnel, their division of labor clear and precise.

This was also why Tong Tian had invested so much effort into dealing with the other side—only when the other side was subdued could they enter a phase of steady development.

So that's how it was. Later, I gradually came to understand: the deputy manager position was truly expendable. Aside from greater freedom, it didn't even come with a proper office, yet this very deputy manager title forced me to share the pressure from Brother Dong with Old Chen.

After learning Luo Hao's injuries were not serious, Yu Yanran's expression returned to its usual icy coldness.

Of course, it's only because of Mei Yi. Without Mei Yi, I am nothing. With Mei Yi, yet I feel myself growing increasingly filthy.

Now that Shan Huliang had admitted it was a misunderstanding, and the Guardian Elder had said nothing, yet acted as if it had nothing to do with him—yet earlier, the man had truly tried to kill him. Luo Hao couldn't punish him directly, but he couldn't let this go either.

Upon hearing my question, Ye Xuan paused, her expression clearly turning uneasy—as if my question had put her in an awkward position.

As the orc's cry of "Never a slave!" echoed, a summoned beast emerged from the Great Summoning Technique array and immediately charged toward the Replication Gate, fully vanishing into it. Three seconds later, four identical summoned beasts burst out from the other side of the Replication Gate.
