Chapter 95: Taking Out the Trash
Half a month had passed since the fall of Xiangyang City, and outside Yiling Camp there was no sign of any large-scale troop movement by the Lü Army. Compared with the three armies' generals who breathed a sigh of relief, Liu Bei and Liu Bian were instead filled with gloom.
Unfortunately, it was too late to say anything now. Not only had he been beaten, he would also lose his freedom in the future. The only thing worth being grateful for was that there probably wouldn't be any danger to his life. From what they said, he would likely be sent to a place called Mist Island for so-called re-education through labor.
Moreover, that shadow blade had completely cut off something very important that Ai Jin was about to say. The shadow's essence should be a lurking familiar; whether it was used to monitor Ai Jin or to protect him was impossible to know. Perhaps because what Ai Jin was about to say violated some taboo, it was silenced by the Black Flag's familiar.
Looking at Liu Bei's terrifying questioning, Zhuge Liang's lips trembled. At this moment his mind was in complete chaos; even now he was still dumbfounded.
However, the problem Lü Lingqi was worried about was no big deal for Yan Baihu, because he had the System on him.
And several former inspectors now all had dark faces, glaring fiercely at their former subordinates a few times.
Princess Xin called out to Ye Feng who was turning to leave, stretched out her right hand and gently smoothed the messy hair on his forehead, then said, "You've been leveling too aggressively and advancing too fast.
Although this voice sounded a bit like a giant blade, it felt strange somehow, as if it were a little shrill and sharp—very odd.
But after all the painful experiences in the apocalypse, he naturally knew that the cat beside him was the real boss; whatever the cat said went.
At this moment, seeing the looks the other lords were casting at him, Liu Bian's face was instantly filled with embarrassment. Though the corners of his mouth twitched as if wanting to refuse, under the gaze of the other lords his heart suddenly sank.
Wan Baoshun, who had originally been the most likely candidate for the position of Investment Director, after having his spot taken by him, had never caused any trouble and had instead been very helpful. Half the credit for the Investment Office's development belonged to him. For such a person, Qin Yang had always treated him with relatively great respect and had always paid attention to uniting and valuing him.
"Mama Ai Food Workshop." Zhu Dan, who had originally furrowed his brows, thinking he would have to remain silent to the end, unexpectedly found himself being asked to comment on the shop's name.
In the organization's intelligence files, this Iliad Cathedral was a more mysterious and more sinister place than the Empire of Light's Minoan Palace. Whether necessary or not, Allen had no intention of provoking it.
After a short while, Ice Dragon Wangcai flew back. Wu Jie learned that they were no longer very far from the Aotian Army. If they marched at last night's pace, they would meet by afternoon. Just then, in the cloudless sky, a hawk suddenly appeared, circling in the air.
"Not bad. He didn't score in the first round—his foot injury is affecting him quite a bit!" I took off my jacket and set it aside. I took out my pair of gloves; the outer leather was a bit worn, and I smiled as I put them on.
"You monsters, let this great lord show you how powerful I am." The longsword in Mu Jian's hand began to tremble, emitting a faint yellow glow.
Living people were pushed out one by one, and the Barrier of the cave grew weaker and weaker; it looked like it would soon allow people to pass through.
"That building isn't across the street, you have to go past the intersection, to the next intersection, and it should be there." He remembered that Grandpa Liang had bought him an ice cream cone under the lemon tree that day, then crossed at the green light and walked straight ahead. By the time he entered the building, the ice cream was already finished.
"There are many strange spirit beasts between heaven and earth. Most of them continue through bloodlines, but some are not like that. In some places the Spiritual Energy is dense and peculiar, and over time spirit beasts naturally come into being." Xue Mai said slowly.
"Senior Brother, why do I get the feeling you don't want to see me?" Chen Yu was no longer in a hurry at this point and began to chat about this and that.
Broken Stone Rift lies west of Xuanhe Grassland and east of Wangyue City, the largest city in the western Beastman Empire. The vast, deep rift completely cuts off nearly a third of the traffic routes between the eastern and western parts, neatly separating Xuanhe Grassland from Wangyue City in the west.
That's right, on Chen Feng's forehead, a golden skull and a golden giant dragon, just like the shadow puppetry in China's ancient art, the two fellows were fighting fiercely on Chen Feng's brow.
Just as Xu Zhijie was staring at the screen on the pyramid's large control console, waiting for news from the reconnaissance aircraft sent by the Phantom Dragon Sect, suddenly all the targets on every display vanished at once, as if they had never existed in the first place.
Ling Tai didn't know the first thing about being gentle with the fairer sex, and replied in the same tone: "Then why are you so bored and clingy, pestering our boss?" Being around killers, Ling Tai was naturally very worried about the boss's safety and had become vigilant.
What a spirited skeleton! That was everyone's heartfelt thought. This person must have been a fierce general of tremendous valor in life, and even in death his proud bones refused to yield.
Tao Bao clenched his fist, but finally loosened it. He tilted his face toward the sky, a faint bitter smile tugging at the corner of his mouth.
"Hehe, Brother Bao, good night." Tan Ya kissed him and then ran straight to Xia Xue's side, grabbed Xia Xue and left.
This refers to a proper Guild, not a "Grass Mountain Stronghold"-style Guild. This is the gap between a full-time "regular army" and a part-time "militia."
"Please rest assured, sir. Your subordinate will certainly give his all to slay the enemy and defend the nation, and will absolutely not fail your expectations," Tao Ping immediately stood at attention, saluted Commander Xue with a standard military salute. Facing this patriotic general of the resistance, this war god, Tao Ping's heart was filled with boundless respect.
Almost forcing himself to spit out the words in one breath, Mola himself didn't know whether his words would sound unpleasant to Ye Piao, or cause a misunderstanding, thereby angering Ye Piao and bringing disaster upon the entire Bell City.
