Who Gets Chased All the Way Home and Still Gains Weight?

Chu Xinghe declared at this moment, "I, Chu Xinghe, can swear an oath to the heavens!"

I really didn't provoke or offend anyone this time!

I, Chu Xinghe, haven't even shown my face this time... I've been hiding my face now...

Even in this situation, you still won't let me go, huh?

What do you mean, "Wuming"? Dude... even if you didn't introduce me as Chu Xinghe, couldn't you at least make up a name for me?

For example, Chu Ahe... Even if you called me Chu Ahe now, I wouldn't find it unacceptable...

What the heck is "Wuming"?

Xu Wannian didn't know what Chu Xinghe was thinking at that moment, but he ignored the Wuming Xu Wannian...

Instead, their gazes were fixed intently on Ma Liang.

Xu Wannian considered himself a well-traveled and knowledgeable person... but at this moment, Xu Wannian couldn't help but sigh, the world is truly full of wonders...

Could there really be someone in this world who looks so much like Ma Liang?

Although Xu Wannian had never met Ma Liang in person, he had seen Ma Liang's portrait and had also seen Ma Liang in the Haotian Mirror.

The actor playing Ma Liang in front of me is so convincingly realistic that he could easily be mistaken for the real person.

However, Xu Wannian knew this couldn't be the real Ma Liang, because the moment he saw him, he used his Divine Sense to check the other's cultivation level, which was probably very close to the Sixth Rank...

In Xu Wannian's eyes, having such cultivation at this age was already extremely outstanding...

Although Dharma Aspect to those prodigies, he would be considered a minor genius in many places!

However, what truly attracted Xu Wannian was not Ma Liang's cultivation level, but rather how incredibly lifelike Ma Liang!

As for the Wuming over there... Xu Wannian glanced at him politely and then nodded!

Hmm... this Wuming guy seems to have the aura of a Third Rank... and it seems to be the aura of Body Cultivation... Third Rank Body Cultivation... just an ordinary person...

Forget about Chu Xinghe at this moment, Xu Wannian pulled Yue Ling up and down and looked her over for a long time... Looking at the unharmed Yue Ling, to be honest, Xu Wannian was also dumbfounded at this moment.

After the King of the Great Liang Kingdom suddenly fell into a coma and both of the princes of the Great Liang Kingdom passed away, Xu Wannian immediately dispatched many of the Great Liang Kingdom's strongest warriors, along with the Great Liang Kingdom's most elite Golden Armor Iron Cavalry, to bring Yue Ling back to the Great Liang Kingdom.

As the only member of the royal bloodline of the Great Liang Kingdom, Yue Ling Yue Ling is a woman, but the Great Liang Kingdom has also had an empress in the past.

Now that the Great Liang Kingdom is beset by internal and external troubles, Xu Wannian believes that it is imperative to welcome back Yue Ling as soon as possible in order to stabilize the people's hearts and deal with the invasion of the Great Chang Kingdom!

Although Xu Wannian had considered that some people might not want Yue Ling to return.

However, Xu Wannian never expected that the other party would be so blatant this time. The experts he sent out were ambushed by the White Dragon Navy on the Canglang River as soon as they left the capital. Li Weihong, the Little White Dragon in the Waves, personally took action, and the entire group of experts was wiped out!

After the experts who traveled by water were all wiped out, the Golden Armor Iron Cavalry who took other routes fared no better...

The numerous Golden Armor Iron Cavalry suffered countless ambushes along the way, resulting in heavy casualties. Although a small number of Golden Armor Iron Cavalry eventually managed to find Princess Yue Ling's whereabouts.

However, Xu Wannian knew very well that the Golden Armor Iron Cavalry could not possibly bring Yue Ling back to the capital of the Great Liang Kingdom unharmed.

Under these circumstances, Xu Wannian made a bold idea... He seemingly sent the Golden Armor Iron Cavalry to welcome Yue Ling, but in reality, he found a fake Yue Ling and had the Golden Armor Iron Cavalry escort the fake Yue Ling back to the capital of the Great Liang Kingdom, in order to attract the attention of the assassins.

At the same time, the Golden Armor Iron Cavalry delivered a large amount of supplies to Yue Ling, allowing her to hire other experts with these supplies. This was a clever tactic to secretly advance her own forces, hoping to ensure Yue Ling's safe return to the capital.

Xu Wannian's guess was correct. The Golden Armor Iron Cavalry, who had set up a feint, were ambushed on a large scale immediately... The Golden Armor Iron Cavalry and the fake Yue Ling were all killed on the spot.

Xu Wannian initially thought that the fake Yue Ling might fool the other party, but it was clear that Xu Wannian had underestimated his opponent.

After discovering that the Yue Ling was fake, the enemy quickly located the real Yue Ling, and a series of frantic hunts and assassinations against Yue Ling began.

Xu Wannian wished he could rush from the capital to the rescue immediately... but Xu Wannian knew very well that he could not leave the capital at this time.

With the king currently in a coma, I am the Sea Stabilizer for Yue Ling in the capital. If I were to leave the capital, everything would be over...

Therefore, Xu Wannian could only send out various experts to provide rescue, but the result was almost always the same: all the experts sent out mysteriously disappeared...

In this situation, even if Xu Wannian wanted to, he was truly powerless...

At that moment, Xu Wannian knew that Yue Ling might never be able to return to the capital in her lifetime.

After all, Xu Wannian knew through various channels that although Yue Ling had gathered a large number of experts to deal with the various assassination attempts, under the frenzied attacks, the experts around Yue Ling were either killed or fled...

And news about Yue Ling disappeared not long ago...

The subordinates responsible for investigating Yue Ling reported that the last trace of Yue Ling was found in Tuyang Town...

At that time, Yue Ling was so desperate that she had absolutely no resources left...

After Tuyang Town, Xu Wannian never heard from Yue Ling again...

At that moment Xu Wannian burst into tears, because in his Xu Wannian, Yue Ling had reached her end and was probably already dead under the enemy's blade...

But today, Xu Wannian simply couldn't believe his eyes!

Yue Ling is back...

Did Yue Ling return unharmed?

This... this is simply unbelievable...

Xu Wannian knew very well how terrifying those who attacked Yue Ling from behind were... Not to mention anything else... Just the Moon Shadow Cult alone was enough to terrify many people!

After all, that's the Moon Shadow Cult... the Moon Shadow Cult has many experts...

But to Xu Wannian's utter bewilderment, not long ago, for reasons unknown, Qiu Tian from the Spirit Beast Continent Qiu Tian went mad and slaughtered the entire Moon Shadow Cult overnight!

The Moon Shadow Cult is powerful, but only within the confines of the Great Liang Kingdom and the Great Chang Kingdom...

Even if the Moon Shadow Cult were ten or a hundred times stronger, it would still be nothing compared to Qiu Tian's Demonic Sect...

What the hell? You said Qiu Tian's Demonic Sect wasn't strong?

Bro... whether it's strong or not depends on who you're comparing it to...

Why has Qiu Tian's Demonic Sect been able to exist in the Spirit Beast Continent for so many years? Even the Four Great Clans couldn't destroy Qiu Tian back then. Do you think he's an easy target?

Qiu Tian was Tantai Jing last time because his opponent was none other than Tantai Jing!

Do you know how terrifying the Demonic Sect under Tantai Jing's command is?

It's no exaggeration to say that if the Demonic Sect were to compete for the title of Ten Great Sects, then Martial Emperor City would always be second!

The Demonic Sect under Tantai Jing used to be a force to be reckoned with, but it lacked cohesion and was mostly a bunch of poor wimps!

But the current Demonic Sect has neither a lack of money nor a lack of cohesion... A group of Demonic Sects that are no longer poor, a group of Demonic Sects that are improving at an insane rate, do you know how terrifying they are!

The righteous path emphasizes gradual progress in cultivation, but the Demonic Sects don't follow that principle... Many demonic techniques allow for rapid advancement!

In the past, the only thing limiting the development of the Demonic Sect was poverty!

Now, under Tantai Jing's financial offensive, the Demonic Sect, no longer impoverished, is absolutely at its peak in terms of both cultivation and methods!

Therefore, Qiu Tian's Demonic Sect could only temporarily avoid a direct confrontation with Tantai Jing's side.

But if anyone tries to bully Qiu Tian, he'll smash their bones to pieces!

To put it bluntly, the Moon Shadow Cult's strength is nowhere near the level of Qiu Tian's Demonic Sect!

Qiu Tian gets tricked by this person and that person all the time... But have you ever considered who's behind all of Qiu Tian's schemes?

It's either Tantai Jing Demonic Sect, or it's the Vast Heaven Holy Land that's trying to scare Qiu Tian... But what exactly is the Moon Shadow Cult?

With a single command from Qiu Tian, Moon Shadow Cult vanished from the Four Continents overnight! This is the terrifying fighting power of the Demonic Sects of the Spirit Beast Continent!

But the problem is, Xu Wannian simply can't understand it... What on earth did the Moon Shadow Cult do that was so outrageous that it warranted Qiu Tian's personal intervention?

Do they even deserve it?

Although the Moon Shadow Cult was destroyed, Xu Wannian knew that it wasn't just the Moon Shadow Cult Sect that was hunting down Yue Ling; there was an even more terrifying force behind it.

Therefore, Xu Wannian had long believed that Yue Ling might have died somewhere and would never have a chance to return.

Xu Wannian never dreamed that Yue Ling would actually return like this...

And what's even more outrageous is Yue Ling's mental state—she doesn't look like someone being chased at all!

Logically, shouldn't someone being chased be forced to flee in a disheveled state?

Shouldn't they be in a complete mess when they get home?

But look at Yue Ling, she doesn't look disheveled at all... Yue Ling looks... she's even gained weight...

Who would be a good person who gets chased all the way and still manages to gain weight?

As if sensing Xu Wannian's confusion, Yue Ling spoke up, "Master, you may not know this, but I hired Ma Liang and Chu... and Wuming in Tuyang Town... Since hiring Master Ma Liang, we haven't encountered any attackers!"

"I hired Master Ma Liang because he looked so much like the real Ma Liang. I thought if Master Ma Liang were with me, would the enemy mistake him for the real Ma Liang and not dare to attack him?"

"Master, it turns out I made the right bet. Those assassins probably really thought the person next to me was the real Ma Liang, which is why we haven't encountered a single assassination attempt since Tuyang Town!"

Xu Wannian: "???"

Hearing what Yue Ling said, Xu Wannian was dumbfounded...

Xu Wannian said to Yue Ling, "Yue Ling, do you want to hear what you're saying...?"

Since starting in Tuyang Town, have there been no more assassination attempts?

You said the assassin believed the person next to you might actually be Ma Liang?

Xu Wannian said, "Even if you had a very convincing Ma Liang by your side, or even a very similar Chu Xinghe, it wouldn't matter... Those assassins will definitely try it out..."

For the situation you described to occur... unless the Ma Liang beside you is real!

Thinking of this, Xu Wannian suddenly turned his gaze to Chu Xinghe, who was wrapped up tightly!

For a moment, Xu Wannian thought... Could it be because of this Wuming?

Just as Xu Wannian was wondering, a gust of wind blew by, and Chu Xinghe's cloak was blown off his head...

The moment Xu Wannian saw Chu Xinghe, he was shocked and apologized... "I spoke too loudly just now, it definitely has nothing to do with this Chu Xinghe... because of this Chu Xinghe..."

That's so fake...
