(Bonus Chapter)

In an instant, a large swath of the Wu Army fell, and Zhang He alone shattered their formation.

But how could Zhang Mo give Xu Rong a chance to react? He shot Zhang Liao a look, and Zhang Liao immediately stepped forward and pinned Xu Rong down. Then Cao Hong, who had been lying in wait at Zhang Mo's side all along, raised his ring-pommel saber and, with one clean stroke, chopped off Xu Rong's head.

So what was Jia Xu trying to achieve by proposing that Chang'an City and the Three Auxiliary Regions be reduced to barren land?

The next day, the plane took off and landed in the imperial capital. This had been Father Xiao and Mother Xiao's idea. They had found specialists in the imperial capital and planned to take Xiao Wanqing for an examination. They were parents, after all; it was only natural for them to worry. Su Ran simply followed their wishes, giving them some peace of mind.

"Of course." Sun Jianmin hurriedly nodded in agreement. He did not dare fail to bring Jiang Fei back.

Then they would have the Wu Army charge in, and afterward launch a pincer attack from both sides along the waterways, leaving the Wu Army no chance to escape.

"Young Lord, you misunderstand. Miss Zhu Zhuqing is absolutely not that kind of person," Nu Zhan said hurriedly.

The first time Xia Jinhe took Gu Qianyu's pulse, she discovered that his body was in terrible condition. He had been afflicted by several poisons long lost to the martial world. One of them was even Lovesickness, a poison developed by her master, Xu Meiyu.

Amid the chaotic battle, Jia Yue finally fought his way to the front, only to see Liu Yin kill more than a dozen Xiongnu soldiers. He immediately rushed forward to block Liu Yin.

"I'm tired, tired. I waited so long, only for some ordinary mortal." Old Beggar spoke disgruntledly beneath his umbrella.

"He can't compare to me in any way, so be with me. I'll treat you better than he does." Sha Qianmo blurted it out without thinking.

The three wore plain clothes and brought only twenty guards with them. They first left the capital by carriage, then switched to horseback after reaching the foot of Rooster-Crest Mountain, following the mountain path all the way upward.

After all, the mission did not restrict which grade could accept it. Students from any grade could take it.

With Gao Mingxuan by her side, she should not have paid any attention to the playboy she despised most... But this playboy was far too dense when it came to romance. Almost everyone in the academy knew about her secret relationship with Gao Mingxuan, yet he foolishly believed that Gao Mingxuan alone was pursuing her.

Sure enough, after hearing the question, the CEO frowned and pondered it carefully.

Bei Chenfeng arrived at the meeting hall. Sure enough, all the elders were already seated in their respective places.

If the Central Plains achieved complete unification, the strategy competition—a method of seizing cities that had endured for decades—could be abolished. The people of the five kingdoms could also intermarry.

After Jing Kong had been immobilized for nearly half a minute, the jade pendant he was holding suddenly turned into Mo Bai.

Wei Qing stared at her without blinking. She wore a sky-blue embroidered silk robe with a black collar, half of her dark hair pinned into a bun with a jade hairpin. The rest cascaded down her back, making her ink-painted brows and rouge-like lips stand out all the more.

She had already been beautiful, but now she was even more dazzling. Her figure, especially, had truly become more perfect.

"This is the outskirts of Fengdu City! Aunt Bai, the situation in the mortal world is unclear at present, and we do not know whether other realms still have spies here. We should not head directly to the sect's base. Let us find someone to ask about the situation first, then decide what to do." When Bai Shuozen asked, Yue Yichen answered with a grave expression.

Only after hearing this did Liu Guoqiang stop searching and turn around. In truth, Su Mei had been washing clothes more frequently lately, and used leakproof nursing pads occasionally appeared in the trash. He had suspected something.

Though it sounded unreliable, An Xinyue knew there was no other way right now. She could only nod in agreement.

Yan Zening let out a long breath, blinked away the tears in his eyes, then smiled. "You're right. If she knew she could save people, she would definitely be happy!" With that, Yan Zening stepped forward, gently knocked down a pine nut, and handed it to Zhao Yuru.

Moreover, a large number of Chu soldiers had been equipped with reinforced glass riot shields. This no longer gave the new army much of an advantage, since ordinary bows, arrows, and firearms simply could not pierce those shields.

Yan Ran hated the Kingdom of Chu's court and people to the core, especially its system. The previous King of Chu had listened to slander and tried to have him killed, only to be killed by him instead. What Yan Ran hated most, however, were those treacherous, sycophantic officials. With them around, even the powerful Kingdom of Chu would one day be hollowed out from within.

Lying motionless on the bed, Jiang Feng stared blankly at the ceiling. Through the branches, he could vaguely still see the moonlight outside.

There were many Liang people in the north. They excelled at cavalry, and every soldier rode into battle. Ever since Yan Ran had beaten them into submission, they had remained peaceful for several years. Yet throughout those years, they had been enduring hardship and biding their time, waiting for the day they could reclaim their lost territory and once again become masters of the grasslands.

So she used it to remain in the prince's residence. Even with her behaving so arrogantly there, Feng Qingchen did not say a single word.

Next came fifty public judges. Though they were foodies, they also understood the importance of this competition.

At last, I had become a disciple of Sun-Moon Academy. In other words, I had finally truly stepped through the two words written before the academy gates: Immortal Gate. From now on, I, Li Yun, could be considered a true member of an immortal cultivation sect.

This was the simplest of common sense. Such a disciple had to be protected within the sect; no matter what, they could not be allowed to leave.
