Chapter 59: The Cannon Fodder Fiancée (59)

"Xie Yanci, my face hurts."

Yun Jin raised her head. Although the wounds on her face were not fatal, they completely destroyed her original beauty.

It was much like a meticulously carved porcelain doll, shattered into pieces by someone's deliberate act of revenge.

The sheer destructiveness of it stung Xie Yanci's eyes.

He gently stroked Yun Jin's injured cheek, a flash of heartbreak crossing his eyes.

"Don't be afraid, I will avenge you."

Qi Ming hurried over with a few bodyguards.

In the afternoon, everyone met up and confessed their feelings to one another. To celebrate the huge success of their adventure, they had dinner together and returned to the adventure group's base villa.

After Wang Jianjun and his brother reached the ninth floor, they saw a thin man with hair past his shoulders standing by the elevator, obviously waiting for them. The two brothers didn't mind; after all, in such a large company, if they didn't even have this much capability, they probably would have gone under long ago.

Before the Cataclysm, some unscrupulous professors would train athletes by unleashing dogs to chase and bite them, forcing them to break through the limits of their own abilities. Once they broke through even once, pursuing that state again became relatively easy.

The High Elves once possessed a vast and glorious empire. Although shattered by the Roman Empire, they might still harbor a shred of ambition to rebuild their empire and felt they must make an effort for it. The Forest Elves, content in their remote corner, had lived in forest villages from the very beginning to the end, and truly did not harbor many grand ambitions.

Julie had remained silent throughout, because the evidence presented before her was extremely unfavorable to her.

Generally speaking, an adventure group did not restrict the personal freedom of its adventurers. The members of the Flaming Arc Adventure Group were quite close, and since they all lived in the same villa and would be away for several days, Valla naturally notified everyone beforehand so as to avoid unnecessary worry.

Meteoroids are heated as they enter the atmosphere, causing their surface to melt and undergo ablation. During this process, they can be sculpted into various shapes, leaving shallow, fingerprint-like depressions on the surface known as regmaglypts.

For him, enlisting in the army might truly be, as Fu Mingyi said, a golden opportunity to get ahead in life.

She actually didn't quite understand why they would do such things and say such words. She thought that the main reasons probably stemmed from her position and the influence of the Grand Tutor.

After his outburst, Sean, breathing heavily, looked at Tucker whose face was stiff as if he had suffered a grave insult. Deep down, Sean understood that Tucker was probably still grumbling internally, complaining with thoughts like, "Wasn't it you who told me to find a wife and have children? Why are you cursing me now?" or something similar.

"Coach, we'll be leaving first. I'm going back to show my parents my results!" After getting off the plane, Qi Xiaoyun, his brother, and Du Fei said to Li Ying and the others.

"Go and tread across mountains and rivers, perceive the essence of heaven and earth, and refine my martial arts. If we are fated in the future, we shall meet again," Qian Ruhai said indifferently. Then, he flicked his hand toward the outside, and Qin Silong's Autumn Water Sword instantly flew over.

If anyone should be grateful, it should be the guests on-site thanking Tang En; otherwise, they wouldn't have even had the opportunity to enter and witness this historic moment.

"What! The Flower Tribe has already mastered this technology and is already smelting and forging metal weapons?" Hearing such news, Shu Wu was also unable to remain calm, letting out a cry of exclamation.

As the roar subsided, the old man turned his gaze to Sean. However, his expression at that moment had completely changed from its previous cold sternness. Not only was there a trace of a smile on his face, but his eyes also held a faint look of appreciation.

Most importantly... even MGM, which Howard Stringer had coveted for so long, had been acquired by New Universal.

"My lady, this giant snake is able to grow this large; it must be an anomaly. With your martial arts, you are probably no match for it. Just stand by my side later, and with me here, I guarantee you will emerge completely unharmed," he said indifferently, looking at Qin Silong beside him.

After another three breaths, Ye Bing opened her eyes. From the moment she entered the tavern until now, a trace of expression finally appeared on her face. Frowning slightly, she seemed somewhat displeased by Hua Mu's persistence.

When we reached Hedong Village, it was already noon. I planned to go to Xihwa's house to check on him.

"A swindler like him can twist his words any which way—making the front contradict the back, turning right into wrong. If he really uses a living person for a sacrifice later, I'll have to stop him no matter what," Penglai said with a righteous and indignant expression.

Among the dishes prepared for the Crown Prince's table, there was precisely one that genuinely had a problem. Tested with a silver needle for poison, the needle turned pitch black.

Tang Ning's throat was somewhat hoarse as she spoke. She lowered her head to look at the wound on her shoulder; the flesh and blood had already healed. She definitely hadn't been lying in bed for just a single day.

Inside the hall, Madam Situ had already straightened her back. Without waiting for the Favor Consort Xian to grant her a seat, she sat down on the carved round stool beside the bamboo couch.

When uttering the word "useless," Princess Liehua's tone could literally be described as "gritting her teeth."

Along the way, they crossed all the counties of Laizhou in a single day. Although the roads had not been extensively renovated, all the potholes had been filled and tamped down, making travel extremely smooth—it felt like heaven and earth compared to traveling outside of Shandong Province.

Thirdly, the number of eunuchs in the palace had noticeably increased. These extra eunuchs wore deep purple eunuch robes, held horsetail whisks in their arms, and marched through the palace in groups of eight or ten from time to time. These men were expressionless, meticulous, and cautious in their actions, clearly ranking slightly higher than the eunuchs who served the imperial concubines inside the halls.

Penglai could only feel astonished. Lowering her head to check herself, her entire body felt perfectly fine with no injuries to be found. Frowning, she wondered: did that Yunji just knock her out and throw her out? Had she not noticed before, or did the sky of Hanyun Valley actually have two moons?

"Master Tang, if worst comes to worst, let the people of the village migrate together. We can organize everyone and escape as one!" I asked.

Such an enthusiastic atmosphere left the teammates somewhat astonished. Everyone realized for the first time that fighting under the watchful eyes of the crowd brought psychological pressure. Neo tightened his grip on his battle axe, striking his heavy shield a few times in an attempt to dispel the tension in his heart.
