Chapter 44: A Cozy Winter Break, Peace Through the Years

Zhang Zhe yawned and then sat atop the city wall. Having left the embassy right after waking up in the morning, he had headed straight for the battlefront, never expecting that the ferocious beasts wouldn't even rest through the night and had kept fighting all the way until dawn.

This clearly surprised Shen Youbai, who raised an eyebrow, completely unable to read Jian An'an's inner thoughts.

Wang Luping's office was right next to Li Yun's, separated only by a wooden partition. Moreover, since Wang Luping was extremely concerned about this deal, he had long since overheard the conversation inside. If not for maintaining a shred of dignity, he would have rushed over long ago without waiting for Su Qing's invitation.

If the person before her were truly a mortal, she would only need to make a calculation—not only could she uncover his origins, but even the origins of his ancestors for eight generations past would not escape her eyes.

Help? The corners of Zhang Zhe's mouth twitched slightly. Eija's gaze towards him was practically glowing; could it be that she wanted him to help treat her? But the problem was that the process was excruciatingly painful, and what if Eija couldn't endure it?

Now, when she sang, it already sounded quite proper. By his standards, he couldn't discern any particular difference between her and a professional singer.

Jian An'an stopped at the airport entrance, her eyes narrowing behind her dark sunglasses as she looked up at the azure sky.

In the afternoon, inside the cockpit, Chen Xu was still sitting in that same seat, gazing at the screen before him while his eyes swept across the time display in the bottom right corner.

Jian An'an washed her hands, rested them on the sink, and narrowed her eyes, feeling a profound sense of exhaustion throughout her entire body.

"Hey! Yuanlong, aren't you overthinking this? Aside from the other three families, who else could have taken down Ma Shouchun? Whoever eliminated Ma Shouchun must be severely weakened by now as well. You must remember that Ma Shouchun has quite a few subordinates; right now is the prime time for us to go and snatch territory!" Sun Yao said nonchalantly.

"Understood, Lord Floyd." Ishual executed a solemn, half-kneeling bow, and without another word, led the people out of the grand hall.

There were rumors among cultivators that this was the work of a beast that had attained human form. The anomalies in the Chaotic Sea previously were the heavenly tribulations triggered by several level-seven fierce beasts undergoing their trials. Because an Eminence of the Nascent Soul stage from the Crimson Refining Sect went to interfere, those beast cultivators were enraged and thus wiped out the Crimson Refining Sect.

However, Ye Luo did not rashly step forward. There might be some hidden conspiracy within this, and furthermore, there was a teleportation array inside the sea eye; Ye Luo saw no reason to take such a risk here.

The Beijing Press Group was one of the top newspaper publishers in the country, and as the editor-in-chief of Beijing Press, Zhou Zhuangsheng was someone Ye Hao felt completely at ease cooperating with.

Ye Luo handed the Universe Ring in his hand to this person, leaving him quite delighted. As for the others, resentment was inevitable in their hearts, but after all, this was a fair matter; who could obtain what and who could not was hard to dispute.

Endless murky light permeated from the void and then shrouded this region of the sky. A powerful surge of profound energy pressure suddenly erupted and spread out. The terrifying fluctuations that made one's heart palpitate rolled and rippled like a tide.

If the hundred-man imperial army were to continue pursuing the scattered Central Plains troops, winding through unfamiliar mountainous terrain a few times and losing their bearings, they would be caught completely off guard by a counterattack from the Wuchang Flower in no time.

Even so, Ye Hao still had to rely on the Memory Excavation Capsule to present the authentic world of Diablo, and this was what Ye Hao valued most.

Although it deviated slightly from Zhou Xingyun's initial wish—not a soul-stirring, passionate kiss unto death—he had finally kissed Isabelle, leaving his entire body restless and stirred up.

Although speed might not be truly invincible, when one possesses the ability to kill with a single blow, that is invincibility. In other aspects, Baisen could not necessarily claim to surpass these people.

Bestowed by Liu Xie? No, no, bestowed by Han Sui! The intention was to humiliate Liu Ming, letting him know that his uncle, his majesty, no longer even had the right to procure such items.

"Calm down! Right, we must be calm, cool-headed, and not let anger cloud our judgment." Baisen constantly admonished himself. Impulse is a demon; we must remain calm, we cannot lose our temper, yes! We cannot lose our temper.

Upon hearing this, the elite halberdiers were visibly moved. After all, no one wanted to be slapped with the grave charge of treason. Everyone cast their unanimous gazes toward Zhang He, waiting to see what his plans were.

Fa Zheng could not help but secretly praise Zhang Song for his genuine talent, to be able to draw a map of such caliber.

Inside the tavern, some cultivators were discussing how someone passing by the Three Stars Cave on the斜月 Mountain had witnessed the commotion caused by a great demon firsthand, and the news had spread instantly.

The Daoist priest constantly waved his horsetail whisk to guide He Chuncheng's soul, making it fly toward the paper figurine's body.

In truth, these people were not unaware that Zhu Yuanzhang's attitude toward You Jingyan was unusual; some harbored the intent of flattery and sycophancy.

Indeed, they were old. The Vitality Sect was truly old; the past was gone, and today's Vitality Sect seemed somewhat unequal to the task. Its former heroic posture and tyrannical aura had long been submerged in the shadows, lost forever to the might of its youth.

After listening to the words of the several elders, the Second Elder nodded and said, "Alright, I will go find Qingfeng. I will try my best to persuade him. As for the rest of you, handle the remaining matters yourselves!" With that, the Second Elder walked out.

Li Yi walked over to a camphor tree on the right side of the dean's courtyard. It was as thick as a rice bowl, with branches spreading out like a large, expansive canopy. What made it rare was that although it was winter with heavy snow falling, very few leaves had dropped from the tree, and its foliage still retained a vibrant green hue.

"Since Cao Cao dared to assassinate Dong Dongzhuo, it shows that he must be a daring and audacious person. Since Dong Zhuo wants to kill him, he certainly won't sit and wait for death; he will definitely fight back," Xiahou Lan said.

An ordinary Eevee has brown fur, but this shiny one was silver, making it look much more noble compared to its standard form.

Ying Ruoxue did not know who the other party was, but her appearance, figure, and temperament were all quite good.

Fearing she might hear the very name she least wanted to hear, she took many deep breaths internally, trying her best to steady herself and immerse back into the control.

Consequently, an invisible wall appeared around Milotic; with this, it could weaken half of the opponent's special attacks for a certain duration.
