Chapter 106

Zhao Ti’s thoughts shifted as he regarded the man: “You say you don’t lie—then why did you attempt assassination? Dare you reveal the reason?”

The man growled, “Of course it’s out of respect for these heroes. You’re destroying the altars of these heroes and warriors—I couldn’t stand idly by.”

Zhao Ti fixed his gaze on his eyes: “Where did you learn of the affairs of this Shanhai Pavilion? A hundred years have passed since that battle; no one alive today knows of it. If you truly don’t lie, then speak the truth.”

Qi Fan seemed unwilling to pay much attention to Wei Shang, instead turning to the sleeping Shangguan Jin and speaking.

“My master told you to leave—didn’t you hear? Get out quickly!” Lin’er snapped as she saw Wang Dong standing like a statue, frozen in place.

Looking at his gentle smile, Ding Guoguo felt dazed. Every time she woke beside the lover who gave her such a warm smile, the feeling was too blissful, too dreamlike—it seemed beyond her reach.

Hearing Jiajia’s reply, Wang Dong’s eyes lit up. His mind cleared suddenly—he could first travel the Spirit Power Continent, then slowly seek out the Grand Priest of Qiu Yuan Kingdom. With this thought, he had already made his decision: to travel the Spirit Power Continent.

At this point, Guo Hongsheng, even if he still harbored ulterior motives, dared not show them, fearing to anger Ye Lingxi and face certain death today.

Though the Regent’s Mansion could stir up storms, the Bamboo Clear Courtyard remained as quietly undisturbed as ever, not a ripple stirring.

Mo Se turned to Xiao Ran; his deep brown eyes curved into crescents when he smiled, his handsome face bearing his usual confident charm—only now, it felt more genuine.

Jiang Ruilin had seen plenty of swift, ruthless methods; but these things could never be made public—otherwise, Jiang Ruilin couldn’t even imagine how he’d die.

Suddenly, Jiang Yunxian’s calm, composed voice came from behind: “Big sister.” Jiang Yunyao frowned; everyone turned to see Jiang Yunxian and Liu Wenpei walking slowly toward them.

Hongdou and Lvdou exchanged glances, seeing the tide had turned. With no other choice, they rose, tears in their eyes, and followed Li the nursemaid out.

Light pierced the dark basement—was it not an illusion? In the depths of unbearable pain, Wu You sparked a sliver of hope: Had someone come to save him? He tried to make a sound, but could not.

“Creak.” When Feng Lingxi found the herbs and burst out the door, she nearly crashed into Yan Yan’s arms; she barely caught herself, gripping the doorframe to halt her forward momentum.

Yet as he passed the black-clad man lying on the ground, Qin Shi, carrying the masked figure, couldn’t help stepping closer again.

Huo Kui’s face darkened. He had still harbored hope for today’s battle, believing he could defeat the You City garrison—but after the clash began, there was still no effect whatsoever.

If anyone else had said this, Liu Yue and Wu You would have doubted it—but when Mo Luochen spoke these words, no one questioned them.

The Wind Crown struck the sword qi; its seemingly indestructible body split down the middle like tofu.

Ye Mengmeng and Qiao Siyan chatted animatedly about the earlier poetry contest, their words flowing like a river, their faces alight with excitement.

There was nothing really to say about this matter—anyone who walks this path knows this day will come. It’s fate. Those who live by the sword will die by it.

Sister Ran: Tianma Amusement Park? I remember—the tickets are limited, only three hundred per day, never an exception. I’ve gone many times and never got one.

This was her first kiss. After recalling her entire life’s journey, Pei Xiuzhi told herself with certainty.

The former would benefit the Thunder Snake team most—if they secured this great dragon, victory would be nearly assured. But if they lost this dragon, the DC team would surge back completely; with the great dragon buff and all their defensive gear, the Thunder Snake team would have no defense left.

The former benefits most at this moment; if they secure this Great Dragon, they will nearly lock in victory, but if they lose this Great Dragon again, DC’s team will completely turn the tide—with the Great Dragon buff and various defensive items, Lei She’s team will have no defense against them.
