Chapter 328

"Because I'm paying attention!"

"I'm still actively watching him!"

From the moment he discovered Xiezi and the Wine Daoist, down to when the Yishi Bureau's database failed to flag Ethan as a player anomaly, Wu Wang had consistently overlooked one question—

Wu Wang had long ignored a certain issue—

【Why do I and my second sister still remember Ethan’s anomaly?】

If, when making that phone call, it was because I had just had direct face-to-face contact with Ethan.

So I could still recall his words.

The army assembled, spent three days drilling at Xinye, then Pang Shanmin immediately led his troops toward Xudu. But before reaching Xudu, another messenger arrived with news: Xudu was now an empty city; Jia Xu had already led his forces back to Chenliu to join Cao Cao.

Pang Shanmin nodded upon hearing this, thinking that Liu Liang’s words were correct, yet with such great profit before him, Pang Shanmin found it hard to choose. In truth, his heart still leaned toward accepting Cao Cao’s proposal—the main reason being he had not yet figured out how to face Guo Jia once Xudu fell.

"The King of Beast Silk, King Among Kings." Jin Zaidong was the owner of this restaurant, often bantering with Li Yongtai; the three of them frequently gathered to joke and tease.

Ling was confident; though Hao Ran was difficult to handle, he was not the toughest opponent Ling had ever faced.

Whenever this happened, Cheng Ying could only shut her eyes tightly, pretending she was still lost in sleep, for she knew well that even if she opened her arms wide, she could not ease Duan Tianya’s longing pain—and might even trigger the opposite effect, causing him to collapse right then and there.

"Not enough..." Gao Deng watched the Strangling Golem, though grievously wounded, still firmly holding the gate and preventing the Feredon army from advancing a single step. He felt the crimson beam, so close at hand, growing thicker and thicker, its evil arcane energy swelling ever more powerfully.

Compared to Gao Deng and Sigrid, who spent a full day riding horses to cross the entire peninsula from Qingmai Town on the west coast to the foot of Weisula Mountain, Lu Fa had arrived via teleportation directly at the mountain’s base.

"That damned lecher—I’ll kill him!" Lin Xue gritted her teeth, rose up, and in a flash, a white robe landed before Bai Xue.

But thinking of Guo Jia alone and unsupported within Xudu, Xiahou Dun’s heart felt as if cut by a knife—he had sent all fresh troops from Xudu to Luoyang, leaving himself in peril. Had Guo Jia already embraced a certain death?

He was no fool; no fool could have achieved the status of Dao Ancestor. The way Cang Hua was acting now clearly contradicted her true nature—therefore, the only possible conclusion was that she was pretending.

Jian Fu understood: originally, he had helped the Scholar solely to aid Wo Lin; but as he helped, he became drawn to the Scholar’s simplicity, and his feelings subtly changed.

Perhaps Jiudeng was lucky; compared to many authors who take several books to gain traction, achieving such success with just one book should be enough.

Watching the man walking toward him—more mature than before—Jeff Bezos opened his arms and walked forward.

"Hah!" Ku Ku nearly laughed himself into a frenzy watching the Shadow Wind’s roll. He winked and grinned, then casually swapped in the newly acquired Shadow Dagger.

"Actually, I only wanted to see you off—nothing more." Zhan Lan suddenly shed his melancholy and smiled brightly.

After landing, the spherical barrier stirred up a faint dust. Han Hai turned the palm of his hand, and a glowing orb illuminated the scene—the first sight.

"No, you can’t go anywhere—his lower back is covered in a rash," Li Yujing said firmly.

Dean Mei and Zhou He sensed something strange, turned on their phones’ flashlights, and suddenly realized everyone else had fallen into an eerie sleep.

Fight if we meet? Not exactly—it’s mainly because the two noble patrons who invited them as honored guests are at odds, and right now, this ship hosts many martial artists; so why not challenge one or two of the opposing side?
