Chapter 55: A Bit Pitiful
“The Crown Prince is kind-hearted but lacks outstanding talent and sufficient motivation; he tends to coast along. Therefore, His Majesty has raised Prince Jing, a fierce tiger, to remind the Crown Prince to remain vigilant in times of peace and strive to fulfill the duties of a successor.”
“Prince Jing is talented and ambitious. Given an opportunity, he will be driven with unparalleled determination. He will keep a close watch on the Crown Prince, unwilling to be merely a pawn, yet forced to play that role. After all, he refuses to comply, and there are many who could replace him.”
“His Majesty’s woman is truly—”
The overweight police officer grew anxious, thinking to himself: Among the officers guarding Liu Sanshi, there must be a mole planted by Zhang Zhaosong. Otherwise, how could Zhang Zhaosong have learned just now, right after drinking with Liu Sanshi?
Like a furious dragon, it shot wildly past Yanque. The triple-layered curved wall curtains spread expansively across the ground, surging with momentum, surmounting the defense tower, climbing the hill’s walls, and bridging the river’s rocky arch to completely encircle the dragon.
“Hey! Lord of the Eastern City, what are you doing at the Tianyuan Gate?” At that moment, Long Shanshan’s voice came from outside.
Ye Xiu picked up the walkie-talkie and spoke softly, his hand lightly pressing the gear-shifting device.
Dressed in black, exuding unparalleled charm, his jet-black hair fluttered in the wind. Leaning against the edge of the table, he looked down with an air of supreme elegance.
In her heart, she was utterly puzzled why Shi Yeting would come out of nowhere to question her with such a baffling inquiry.
No one expected the plot to unfold this way. Even Xu Han was stunned in place, but the next moment, he couldn’t help but feel it was amusing. Hao shook his head, signaling Chen Xiu not to worry. His mind raced, torn between whether to adopt a defensive or offensive stance next.
In the OB live broadcast room, some martial artists commented that although the red team lost four members during that skirmish, Zhao Xin and Syndra’s orderly delay tactics and coordination in the team fight were impressive.
“Judging by Young Master Mu’s tone, there seems to be some other secret?” Mu Qingjue’s subordinate subconsciously rubbed the jade pendant at his waist.
“Enough, shut up.” Grandma Zhao wished her husband would divorce such a fool right now, but given the current circumstances, she had to endure.
“Cultivate oneself and nurture one’s character,” Lin Fan lazily replied, mainly wanting to test his grasp of broad knowledge.
This was not their fault; the fault lay in someone’s extraordinary talent. That single blast shocked the entire court and nation.
When Meng Qianyou woke again, besides Meng Yixuan sleeping by the bedside, the room was utterly silent.
“There’s indeed been quite a lot going on these past few days. My apologies.” Ning Fuchen unusually refrained from nonsense this time; after all, he truly had matters to attend to and spoke with rare confidence.
After Xiao Xiwei’s cold, biting words, Aunt Zhou felt a heavy weight pressing in her chest.
As he stepped back, his foot reached knee height. Helpless, he prepared to leap.
Fang Jing’s voice was sharp and loud, silencing the entire arena. In the brief stillness, shouts erupted again, demanding a harsh sentence for Chen Feng, even calling for his execution.
After all, if such a thing were truly as the system claimed, the technology involved would far surpass current medical capabilities. In such a case, if it fell into the wrong hands, trouble would surely follow.
Inside Ning Fuchen’s body, two extreme sensations emerged—intense heat and bitter cold—tugging at his body and spirit. Finally, Ning Fuchen exploded, violently punching the ground and sending a flurry of snow swirling.
The ribbon-cutting ceremony began. When An An and Nalan cut the ribbon, firecrackers exploded and fireworks lit the sky. Remarkably, these were pure gunpowder firecrackers and fireworks, not electronic ones—far from environmentally friendly.
Before coming out, I was quite disappointed. I believed our Four Holy Lands Allied Forces should be a place all rational spirit beasts longed for, representing our united will to defeat the enemy.
