Chapter 54: Something Terrible Has Happened
The Censorate encountered a crisis, and the Emperor ordered Prince Su to thoroughly investigate the matter concerning the Censorate.
This turn of events was an unexpected boon for the Tong family.
After leaving the palace, Yin Su Mo headed straight to the Ministry of Justice, where everyone cooperated fully.
By the time they interrogated Xu Guodong, night had fallen. Xu Guodong, having been imprisoned for several hours, was already in a state of panic.
The dim candlelight, coupled with the oppressive atmosphere of the prison, began to fray Xu Guodong’s nerves.
“Lord Xu, this king is here to interrogate you—”
“Hiss!” In his Hulk mode, muscles strengthened and defenses near invincible, Qin Tian marveled at his own resilient skin, rivaling the ancient defensive relics marked by countless cracks. With a heavy hand, he seized the Fuxi Pillar—a massive iron rod—and swung it with crushing, cleaving, and sweeping strikes.
The servants and attendants bowed their heads solemnly, not daring to breathe, diligently attending to their duties. Just moments before, their master, Lord Lu, had lost his temper and killed a maid.
Upon entering the Netherworld, although the dangers had increased greatly, the opportunities had grown equally vast.
Tomorrow, Nara and the two members of the experimental team instinctively raised their hands in defense. A strong gust of wind blew past—Nara realized that it was due to Skadi, the aerial warrior, performing an ultra-low flight overhead.
Mo Li, calm and detached, said, "Sorry, it’s too dark here to see anything." Anyone trying to step on her clearly didn’t know Mo Li’s fierce nature.
“What’s so funny? Why are you laughing?” Wu Mei looked at her, puzzled by her uncontrollable laughter, unsure what she had said that was so amusing.
“No big deal, it’s just a bear’s paw. Cao Hong still hasn’t dispelled his magic immunity. Let’s force a team fight in the mid-lane and snatch that bear’s paw away!” Wu Feibai suggested.
“The Ten-Thousand Moon Sacred Art? So you’re the Moon Guardians. Today, I’ll spare you.” Wu Moyue wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth, sensing danger, and immediately used her “Teleportation” divine skill to vanish without a trace.
Jun Ling Shang retracted his aura and moved gracefully across the rooftops, step by step like blooming lotus flowers. “Qin Tian followed beside him at an unhurried pace.”
Of course, Li Qianqian’s misfortune did not occur in Jinling but while exploring the wilderness with friends, where they attracted something unclean.
Xiao Feng, in particular, had even knocked the battalion commander’s jaw crooked, then managed to disappear for four days—his audacity surpassed the heavens.
Meanwhile, the laboratory door was blown open as countless soldiers charged in. With no way to retreat, the brothers planned to break through the encirclement with a bloody path.
After speaking, Leng Tianying swept his sleeve and left. Yao Tian quietly watched him depart in the hall but did not approach to see him off.
Suddenly, Ye Qiu smelled sweat and smoke on him. Ye Qiu didn’t smoke, so this was naturally because he had been in a place where smoking was detested and was thus exposed to the smell.
If the last energy fluctuation was like a gentle breeze brushing the face, then this time it was a tsunami capable of destroying a city.
“Everyone, charge together—” Sir John mounted his horse and, following several tribal warriors, shouted to the militia behind him.
They held swords in one hand and several gleaming gold coins in the other, making Joseph’s heart pound and causing his knees to involuntarily buckle.
Qin Fei looked up and, following the faint light, vaguely saw the characters of Yikun Palace. He immediately relaxed and gently pushed open the door to enter the main hall.
Lin Xiang had just awakened. When she came downstairs and heard Ye Qiu mention medical expenses of several million, she wasn’t sure if it was true.
Wang Taoxin wanted to say something, but the old lady suddenly jumped off the kang stove, grabbed her cane, and turned away.
The four white mages sounded terrifying, but in fact, as long as they failed to control their opponents and allowed the enemy’s damage dealers to unleash, the Red Fox faction could easily collapse.
