Chapter 10: Familiar Faces

County Academy, inside the room.

Master Fang gathered his long sleeves, maintaining his usual dignified and refined manner, but his eyes were full of annoyance. “You really are too bold. Liu Tangshan once served under your father’s command. Although there was no improper reputation during his tenure, his sudden transfer back then may well have been because he sensed your father was investigating him. If he truly recognizes you, what then?”

Lu Jingyuan replied, “Since I must participate in the county examination in Ancheng County, it’s inevitable that I’ll have to meet him. The last time—”

At that moment, a palm struck Lin, sending her out of the cave, and he himself leapt after her. Rick O’Connor, Evelyn, Jonathan, and Mad Dog Maguire simultaneously aimed their guns at Shen Long.

“I’m heading home first. You walk back on your own. I’ll call you in a few days!” Song Tingting said to Shen Long before pushing open the car door and heading inside.

“If you say that, then if the Ye family hadn’t intervened to save you, your Mu family would have been wiped out decades ago. Where would you be now?” Zhuo Qingchan sneered.

Based on the direction of the wind, if Anty City had floated up, it was likely blown toward the direction of Gelt Peak.

“Setting up an array?” The administrator was somewhat surprised. Array masters who came to the Array Tower always focused on cultivation; Li Xiaoyao was the first to actually set up an array.

“Hey, can’t you guys treat the hostage a little better?!” Zuo Mo complained, disgruntled. Honestly, if they hadn’t covered his eyes with a black cloth, he would have liked to see what this silly, adorable kidnapper looked like.

Besides the toll and urgently needed supplies, these merchants’ stays at the guesthouses in Liangshan made Zhu Gui, Du Xing, Sun Xin, and Madam Gu’s inns brim with profits.

Seeing the burly man charge over, Ning Feng didn’t dare to be careless. After running two steps, his right leg suddenly pushed off the ground, and his body soared into the air, kicking the burly man right in the chest.

Hearing there was a chance to become citizens of the Great Tang, these people were overjoyed, eager to march into the land of the Karluks that very day, hoping to earn merit for Tang and become Tang people themselves.

Their eyes locked onto Li Xiaoyao, and they stepped forward in unison, launching an attack.

“Thunder, end of the cage, annihilate.” His outstretched fingers slowly curled into a fist. The big man’s gaze remained icy, utterly unconcerned with Chu Yun’s fate, the murderous intent as real as ever.

Rayleigh and the other two were whispering secretly, occasionally bursting out in laughter. When they suddenly heard Harry’s words, none of them kept their footing and all fell to the ground, staring at Harry in disbelief.

“Of course! What’s mine is yours. Now you can learn magic too, right?” Harry had already decided to share the dew of nature with Tang Ling, even if its effect might be diminished; he didn’t mind.

“The inheritance of my omnipotent knight comes from Monster Siege, and hers was given by Lisa.” Hua Rong pointed at Hua Rong.

Twenty lower gods, their aura extraordinary, suddenly shouted, making the heavens and earth tremble faintly. Their steps were perfectly synchronized, and even their attacks were executed in unison.

“It’s nothing.” Su Huan looked at Yu Yan, whose face was radiant like the spring breeze, and said nothing more, uttering just two words.

Mo’er waved her hands repeatedly, so shocked she couldn’t speak. She’d thought Tianlan was adorable, easy to get along with, and their conversations were enjoyable.

A red glow, like a broom, continually swept through the meridians and blood vessels, clearing the cold poison again and again, as time slowly passed.

The man’s face was lecherous, his hands increasing their force as he pulled, tearing away a corner of her garment and revealing a snowy shoulder. In the darkness, it shone faintly like polished jade.

Qiao Chuqing’s heart shuddered. Still dignified? Was he about to use torture? It seemed there was no hope for a peaceful resolution today.
