Chapter 532: Former Patriarch, Edras!

This projection was strange.

He wore exquisite armor resembling bone, each plate sewn together with gold thread and inscribed with imperial proclamations in an unknown crimson liquid.

His right eye had been replaced with an irregular hexagonal mechanical ocular implant, of unmistakably high caliber, far from ordinary.

More importantly, his voice carried a double echo—raspy and low, yet piercing and shrill, leaving one deeply unsettled.

This race car was his secret weapon, his guarantee of victory. Combined with yesterday’s conspiracy, his chances of winning were even greater.

The pirate captain’s heart was also torn; at this point, how could he not understand?

Jiang Dahu’s so-called Silver Tiger Mountain Medical Bureau now had only one person left; the others had perished in the previous great battle against the Heavenly Dynasty’s army.

Let’s describe the layout of the entire Lingyu Pavilion: at the main entrance was a hall of about a hundred square meters, filled with antiques and calligraphy-paintings—though the vast majority were fakes or replicas, with only a few genuine pieces, all of relatively recent origin and low value.

Yao Qi had issued a blank check in advance; he himself had little confidence in tonight’s operation.

Lu An had run all over the city searching for markers—objects capable of enabling precise localization of the power conduits. He visited one hundred twenty-four points, covering a radius of one hundred fifty kilometers, encompassing the entire Pudong district.

Qin Yu’s face flushed red; too excited to continue, he quickly took Feilisi back. This matter couldn’t be resolved alone—he had to consult Wei Yuan.

Countless thoughts converged in Yang Mei’s mind, worsening her mood. She closed her eyes and slowly built up her mental resolve.

Fang Cun, upon hearing the news, could not help but rage. He had been tricked out of Manglang Pass by Li Haobai, who had feigned willingness to assist Fang Cun in defending the pass—only to reveal himself as so treacherous and cruel.

At the time, the Zhang family was impoverished, and Li Guimei often went to the hospital for treatment. Financially strained, some morally corrupt and lowly neighbors avoided them like plague, refusing to even walk on the same alley.

Yu Fan landed on the ground, gripping the shadow’s neck, holding it high before his eyes, studying it curiously.

Many others scanned the surroundings, hoping to find one or two scalpers—but none were there. Where the hell had the scalpers vanished to?

In addition, Ji Feng’s attack brought unprecedented pressure upon Ge Li and the others; flames filled the sky with his movements, like an endless sea of fire, mercilessly scorching them.

Seeing the old man before him, he felt a touch of surprise—he hadn’t expected it to be the village chief.

Two plainclothes officers, their leather shoes gleaming, their hair styled in business cuts, stepped out of the police car and entered the courtyard.

“Jia Dang, how do you plan to fight in this campaign?” Deputy General Duan removed his armor, appearing now like a wealthy gentleman.

Conversely, as they descended further, the spiritual energy in the passage grew increasingly abundant—even Lin Qianyi, a mortal, could sense the air ahead had grown noticeably fresher.

Listening to Huang Chao’s endless accusations, Chu Qingshan clenched his teeth, refusing to utter another word; every tactic he had thought clever had been exposed, leaving him momentarily speechless.

“This matter must be handled swiftly. If you don’t act, the imperial harem will surely move first. Better to act quickly,” Fan Jun said with concern.

Dai Jin could hardly believe it—no one had even given her a plausible reason. Her brother had simply decided, without warning, to leave the family behind forever.

Yang Bai hadn’t finished speaking when a massive boulder bounced down from the city wall, crashing with a thunderous sound and sinking deep into the city. Yan Pu, stunned by the boulder’s force, opened his mouth wide and could not close it for a long while.
