Chapter 14: Testing Truth and Deception

Qin Xiao suddenly had the urge to test Tang Li; this woman was far more complicated than she appeared.

“All right, let’s go,” he said.

Tang Li was stunned. The Emperor had changed again? She was changing, and so was he. The Emperor was truly not simple. She recalled the message her father had sent: the Emperor’s mind was unrivaled, exceedingly cautious.

There was no doubt—his intellect bordered on the supernatural.

Lou Qiao's expression turned grim. His rank was similar to Jiang Tianyou’s, but their Fu Sect was not skilled in combat; even ten of him could not defeat Jiang Tianyou. Moreover, Bei Yanbin, that cunning fellow, had launched a surprise attack as well.

Wang Shu was exhilarated, streams of mist continually merging into the sword. The thick fog around Mo Fan had thinned considerably. Holding Wang Shu, he took several tentative steps.

Li Xi did not speak with Su Nan. Previously, this had been her secret with Xiao Yunfei, but now Su Nan had stumbled upon it, causing Li Xi’s resolve to harden. All the catalysts stemmed from Su Nan.

If the Dao were a forest, how would you seek to understand it? By venturing deep inside, or by viewing it from a helicopter above. Combine both perspectives, and you begin to know the forest.

As for level-three biological warships, it was utterly impossible for them to be sold. After all, a level-three biological warship was considered a mid-tier force in the entire Anti-Universe. If level three was already so rare, there was no need to even imagine level four or five.

“There really are a lot of battle beasts. Just one room holds hundreds of thousands; with three hundred rooms, that’s tens of millions! You must make a pretty penny just from these beasts in a year!” Liu Kehong teased as they walked.

“Brother Fei! I’m Yu Qinglong from the Azure Dragon Gang! There’s been a misunderstanding today; release my men, and I’ll host a banquet to apologize to you another day!” The boss of the Azure Dragon Gang, Yu Qinglong, spoke into the phone.

This time, Liu Kehong carried almost ten million in gold and silver coins alone. He’d plundered decades of Ke Lejia’s hoarded wealth; the amount was nearly incalculable.

Lin Yumeng awoke again two days later. In her sleep, she’d had a long dream: Han Bing held her hand as they ran through the mountains, crossing hills and rivers, always heading toward the distant horizon.

Li Zhu busied herself tidying up Tong Shuang, then stepped out of the inner room and saw an elderly doctor with a white beard. He appeared dignified, undoubtedly skilled in medicine.

Assistant to the General Manager? Zhao Xinpeng was taken aback. He’d heard of the position, but what exactly did the assistant do?

Staring at the glaring word “child,” Lu Ze’en couldn’t hold back any longer. He hurled his wine glass hard against the wall.

Gu Yongchen lit a cigarette and brought it to his cold lips, taking a drag. The thin veil of smoke slowly rose, blurring his vision, and concealing the intense hurt in his eyes.

Li Haobai entered the kitchen, took a piece of bloodthorn lizard meat and chopped it finely. Then he fetched a bag of corn from the staff dormitory, shelled it, added some honey, and prepared to cook a corn porridge.

Li Haobai didn’t know what the Bluebird liked, but he figured spending more time with it might help win its favor.

Chen Kui was deeply puzzled; even now, the blood water that had appeared so eerily in Han Ting’s room still haunted him, sending chills down his spine.

Chen Kui’s plan to use the Nightmare app to frighten people, turning Nightmare tokens from Ghost International Entertainment into a hard currency equivalent to gold, was slowly taking shape.

Xu Sa’s face darkened. He didn’t need to guess—clearly, it was the customs authorities’ superiors, trying to claim credit, who had done something foolish.

Skeleton Ghost Xia Shu was beside himself with excitement—he had never seen a human before. Nearby, the White Ghost Zhao Ziying and the Fat Ghost Li Xiang were also thrilled, each holding a telescope and peering intently at the Ghost Villa, but found nothing.
