Volume 1, Chapter 68: Be an Idle Prince?

On New Year's Eve, the members of the Leng family naturally gathered for a reunion dinner to ring in the new year. A vast array of diverse dishes covered a large table.

"Time! The time left for us is indeed running out. Relying solely on our own strength is far from enough to contend with them. It seems we must form a coalition," I answered with calm earnestness.

"Double protection. There is an alarm system outside the base, and any intrusion signals will be bounced back or blocked," Monkey explained.

In fact, had it not been for the ongoing auction, the Poison King, with his vengeful and petty nature, would likely have made a move long ago.

Firing arrows at a three-foot-wide opening amidst panic in total darkness was naturally extremely difficult. As a result, only a few arrows passed through the sliced city gate to the outside, while the majority struck the gate itself.

"Damn it, how tedious! If I had known, I would have brought the barbecue grill along. We could eat, drink, and wait while..." Hu Hao happily daydreamed.

At the same time, Chu Yuan felt an intense aversion to such irresponsible behavior—disregarding his family and the lives of those close to him, caring only for his own research.

Standing nearby, Chu Yuan nodded inwardly. Although his current combat power was not ranked very high, ever since he received the inheritance of the Five Elements Great Emperor, his insight had far surpassed that of ordinary people, allowing him to perceive the crucial intricacies at a single glance.

Many people attended the wedding of Guo Tian and Meng Ruoyun. Back then, the Guo family's villa was much larger than those of the Gu and Xuanyuan families, and even an outer-ring wedding invitation was bid up to a million. Being able to attend Guo Tian's wedding had already become a symbol of status.

Yet Chen Xuan had no such thoughts; his mind was entirely filled with the treasures inside these people's spatial rings.

Seeing that Chen Xuan was astonishingly fast, impervious to blades and spears, and possessed terrifying brute strength, the lead guard's eyes flashed with shock as he abruptly raised a hand to command: "Deploy the Heaven-Origin Battle-Essence Celestial Blade Technique and encircle and kill this fiend!" Hearing this stern shout, the numerous masked assassins snapped out of their shock and swiftly withdrew three paces away from Chen Xuan.

"Forget it. If I saw her now, I wouldn't even know how to face her. How do you plan to settle her? Let her go through the cycle of reincarnation?" Qu Fei asked with concern.

However, when he put forward his request, the system interface actually displayed a piece of information—a message that finally allowed Luo Fang's hanging heart to settle.

Feeling irritable and restless, I shook my head vigorously and couldn't be bothered to dwell on it anymore. What had happened had already happened, and agonizing over it further was pointless.

"Zhang Ye, Deputy Minister of the Konoha ANBU, pays his respects to the Daimyo," Zhang Ye said, bowing as the corners of his mouth twitched involuntarily.

If everyone in the world believed that police officers deserved to die simply for holding their positions, what would become of this world?

Being suppressed like this by Lin Tian truly infuriated Jiu Xuan. As the leader of the dignified Blood-Seed Technique organization, when had he ever suffered such humiliation?

However, throughout the entire time, he had a persistent feeling that a pair of eyes was staring at them with malicious intent.

"Ah!" Chenchen was startled and hastily scampered away from Sarutobi Hiruzen, hiding behind Zhang Ye and hugging his leg as she peeked over timidly.

"Bailong, do you really intend to bring up the events of the past in front of so many juniors?" My grandfather clenched his fists, his voice growing increasingly low.

Hailing from a greater realm, they naturally looked down upon the cultivators of the Holy Realm. Moreover, holding low statuses themselves, they were unaware of the existence of such entities within Holy Emperor City, which was why they dared to speak so arrogantly. Besides, this had also been arranged by their Holy Commander.

Forcing her neck straight and not daring to let her gaze deviate even slightly, Hill passed through the iron gate before she felt a little better.
