Chapter 60: Grudges and the Start of the Military-Civilian Grand Competition?
The army-green off-road jeep sped away, leaving only Zhao Hualin and his grandson standing there, stunned and unable to recover for a long while.

Now that Wen Chuan had been slightly dealt with, after recalling Chu Man’s recent condition, Steward Wan’s heart skipped a beat.
An ordinary farmer’s annual income in the Wanzhou Kingdom was about four to five taels. After a year of famine, managing to hold onto two or three taels was already remarkable.
Above Chen Xuan’s head hovered the Sage’s Formation, still radiating a holy light, suppressing the evil dark power within him.
For him, although he did not yet know how to use these fruits, simply judging by their taste, these were rare spiritual fruits not easily found in ordinary harvesting. Their spiritual potency must be considerable.

They boarded the village ox cart, which carried a few people. The lively gossip fell silent as soon as Su Jingjing and her group arrived.
Chen Xuan had nearly absorbed all the various law powers, leaving only the three great laws of Time, Space, and Chaos for last.
