Volume 1, Chapter 57: Clash of Dragons and Tigers

Time flies, and staying in the hospital is always tedious and dull.

Yet, with a fair companion by his side, the days were not too difficult to endure.

These past days had been fraught with crises, but fortunately, the harvest was quite rewarding.

He brought up the personal status panel to check.

Lu Jing
Status: Healthy (Due to absorbing the bloodline power of various fierce beasts, physical strength has been significantly enhanced.)
(Pseudo-mortal body; limit values will increase as abilities grow stronger.)

Ren Wuxin and Sikong Chen also joined the fray, pursuing in the direction where Qin Louyue had fled.

However, when Wang Haichao, who arrived later, learned of the entire process, he immediately reported every single detail to Mo Li.

As she spoke, her eyes revealed a lingering reluctance to part, and she slowly handed the bowl of water to Li Yi.

"This subordinate takes her leave!" Seeing this, Qinghuan immediately bowed to Qing Shiyan, then turned and vanished into the green woods behind.

He remembered one of the reasons why Lei Yiming had a "fight to the death" with Mary Feng back then was that Mary Feng refused to bear him children.

Was this traveler, wandering in distant lands for years, destined to keep wandering until the very last breath of his life?

There were things Mother Quan had always wanted to say to Mu Yunfeng, but she was afraid that Ye Ziqing might wake up suddenly, and speaking in the hospital room was inconvenient after all.

The two sat in their respective carriages, one behind the other, heading toward the western part of the capital. Yan Zhi lifted the curtain to look outside along the way, while Jing Xing sat inside the carriage, nursing a bellyful of sullen anger.

Li Jiu looked back at Que Hou with a cold smile. The gazes of both were icy, yet they seemed to spark friction.

"It really works." Ling Xi stroked her face in pleasant surprise, her eyes filled with disbelief.

Although somewhat regrettable, matters had reached this point, and they could only look for breakthroughs from other directions.

He apologized with a face full of guilt, saying that he had stayed up all night working and felt a bit unwell. Under Shen Rujun's concerned gaze, he leaned back against the soft seat and closed his eyes to rest.

Just like Scholes, Rooney received a red card in the pre-match warm-up, yet bizarrely was handed a three-match suspension by the Football Association.

"Hehe, at this point, what meaning is there to submission or non-submission?" Hexi said helplessly.

Indeed, coming from a background of banditry, staying now in such a vital transportation hub naturally made some people feel uneasy inside.

Just like how he had no idea he would be kidnapped back then; clearly it seemed so distant, yet it had simply descended upon him.

Wen Zhixian asked him quite a few questions, but Qi Yanqi had no intention of answering her, deliberately stringing her along with curiosity.

It was just that Liangbing was somewhat curious—what kind of person was it that required Guan Yu to specially build such a place in this building just to live in?

Looking at the city wall that resembled a heavenly chasm, a trace of gloom and desolation appeared in Wang Ling's eyes. He knew that his chance had already slipped away.

"Brother Du, can you stop acting all flirty at the bathhouse at night?" Lu Nan pushed him into the bathroom and shut the door behind him. Just as he was about to say a few more words to warn him not to mess around, Du Xiaofei had already stuck his head under the tap, turned it on, and began rinsing vigorously with a gushing sound.

Among them, the several meridians connected to the Qi sea suffered the most severe damage. Presumably, this was because he had been mobilizing his true essence to compete with Luo Li while simultaneously mobilizing starlight power, causing the most violent clash right here.

Of course, the subsequent worries were minor, as long as it did not provoke too many diplomatic disputes. The most important thing was that it should not injure itself or leak its itinerary.

Hearing Fan Ju's reply, King Zhaoxiang of Qin let out an angry roar, smashing the porcelain bowl in his hand onto the ground. His patience with Bai Qi had reached its absolute limit. He had sent people time and again to persuade him, yet Bai Qi remained completely indifferent. Could it be that he, the King of Qin, truly could no longer command this Supreme Commander?

Bai Chongxi's eyes darted, and with a wave of his hand, he laughed out in amusement: "Bocheng, everything you mentioned is entirely possible. I have studied Frunze's style of commanding troops; he excels at using surprise maneuvers. In the Crimean Operation, he even forced a crossing of the Sivash Strait to breach the Perekop Isthmus of the White Army."
