Chapter 126: Snide and Sarcastic

Xie Lin’s brows instantly relaxed, and he seized the opportunity to say, “Those are your words!”

If there was one thing he was most dissatisfied with about Gu Zhuo, it was that she did not care when others took advantage of her!

A man like Xie Lin would not even allow others to take advantage of him, much less let them take advantage of Gu Zhuo.

“But... could you at least let A Ning finish high school?” Gu Zhuo asked timidly.

Xie Lin shot her a glance. “All right.” He was not—

“You four! Can’t you hear that it’s time to assemble?” Lou Yuan’s roar, loud enough to frighten a lion, drew all four pairs of eyes toward him.

Chen Feng, however, had no mind to care what Xu Kai thought. After giving Xu Kai a look that clearly said, “Stay calm,” he took his phone and went outside.

Bai Yunqi returned to the city from the harbor without notifying Jiang You or Zhuge Jie. Instead, he went alone to the mecha repair center—which, in reality, was more like an entire mecha-repair city.

“Understood! We shall obey the God of War’s command!” The ten battalion commanders immediately rose and shouted excitedly, leading the soldiers of the Independent Regiment’s ten battalions as they followed Wang Xiao toward the Human Race’s Great Wall.

Qi Huaigu said that this training camp would hone their combat skills. The Lord of the Underworld scoffed at the idea. She believed that her supreme sword techniques and movement arts could completely crush the combat skills of the Third Bureau.

As the leader of the Nine Abyss Sky Hunters, Shi Dongtian naturally wanted to rescue Lu Qinglian. Unfortunately, all five of their opponents were experts at the third level of the Fusion Realm. He had only just reached the first level and was utterly no match for them.

As matters developed, Chen Feng’s interest in the collector in the photograph gradually changed from investigating his identity to suspecting it.

The Divine Ape Heaven-Destroying Strike carried the tremendous force of a giant fist as it crashed into Wang Yu’s fist. A thunderous sonic boom shook the entire world. Wang Yu felt as though he had been struck by a high-speed train. Agonizing pain shot through his fist, and his body was hurled backward beyond his control.

His chest felt tight, and a violent restlessness rose within him. The force surged through his blood, up to his brain, and throughout his entire body. It was a power born wholly of nature, carrying the majesty of the natural world—something that could not be ignored.

Apart from the occasional pair of guards who were still energetic, everyone else around the villa had long since forgotten their duties and was dozing off in the places where they habitually rested.

Lu Chen only acted like a fool from time to time. After all, he was a host who had experienced a great deal, and his mind was not slow.

“Master...” Yan Xiao was reluctant to leave. Lu Guan had given him new intelligence, new power, and now even a new identity and body. He might as well have been his reborn parent.

Baron Dulu glanced at Reina, then at the knights behind him. He pressed his lips tightly together, clearly having no intention of discussing the matter.

The young man standing before Xie Changjing was named Li Hu. He was an outer disciple of the Ling Sword Sect. Faced with the faintly interrogative tone in Xie Changjing’s voice, he instinctively lowered his head even further.

“Can you investigate the circumstances surrounding the last login of these IDs?” Lin Chi asked the Mad Scientist.

Yet no one could have anticipated that the long-awaited spectacle would amount to nothing more than Luo Chuan lowering his head with a smile before casually spreading his hands toward the silver-haired old woman.

On the outer city’s themed wall of Bien City, Viscount Paddy dragged his weary body along as he inspected the defensive line. Before anyone realized it, the flames of war had spread to Bien City. In the several centuries since the Boger family had ruled the Territory of Bien, the city had never once suffered the ravages of war.

Pei Xuande stormed out of the Pei residence and headed straight down the main street. Suddenly, he realized that the person walking ahead of him, wrapped from head to toe, was none other than the eunuch Duan Yi who had just come to deliver a message to Pei Ju.

“The spy operation we trained together has run into trouble. Some of them have completely slipped beyond our control, and we can now be certain that they have betrayed us. Although they have not exposed us, some very bad news has already begun to spread...” Xiaoxin said anxiously.
