Chapter Sixty: The Top Scholar Paraded Through the Streets

Shen Zhiming had been beautiful since childhood, so she didn’t show much emotion when receiving compliments. To her, appearance was merely superficial; what truly mattered was a person's inner character.

The midday sun was dizzying, and Shen Zhiming rose from beside the flower window, retreating behind Fang Li. Since Fang Li so desperately wanted Pei Zhi’s attention, it was better to let her stand in the most conspicuous spot.

About fifteen minutes later, on the street—

At present, the Knicks were hardly lacking in point guards. Emmanuel, who had started many games this season, had gained much confidence. The team also recognized his value.

It turned out that the so-called elemental planes existed within this world. For example, the well-known Abyssal Depths was the Geo Elemental Plane, located beneath the Great Whirlpool. Besides that, there was the Pyro Elemental Plane, the Pyroclastic Land; the Anemo Elemental Plane, the Skyward Wall; and the Hydro Elemental Plane, the Abyssal Throat. All of these were parts of this world.

From afar, it looked as if the earth had opened to reveal a spring bubbling with green water, endlessly gushing forth in vibrant streams.

“Tch, what a coward,” Zhang Li sneered, casting a disdainful glance at him before turning to Rodament. He unleashed a flying sword. Unable to react in time, Rodament was pierced through. Although the skin bore a hole, it was not yet “dead.”

“I’m heading back this afternoon. Let’s get together again then,” Mikhail said with a smile to his classmates.

Several projects, including the Hunting Moon Gambling and the Old Goods Recycling of the Lingzhong Lake Fishmen, had originally been controlled by the Blood Brotherhood. But due to their poor reputation, the Brotherhood had been seeking external collaborators for years, attempting to transfer these “gray-area projects.”

The children were sallow, dirt-smudged, and their clothes tattered. They huddled together so closely that it was impossible to tell which one was Luo Yuxi.

Unexpectedly, when the two arrived in the Wind Nation, they found that Feng Chenxi and Elder Bao were not there. Even the Wind Emperor did not know where they had gone, only that after a brief visit, they had left again.

Hiss! Everyone gasped; they finally understood why this brother looked so pale.

The dragon wing sliced cleanly through Qin Zhan’s body. But instead of blood and flesh flying, it dissipated into a shadowy form, charging a short distance before vanishing into the void.

“Yes! If we must go into battle, capturing Settsu is inevitable. Settsu borders Kyoto and serves as the mountain fortress of the Yamashiro Domain. At this moment, Nagayoshi Miyoshi is not stationed at Akutagawa Castle. Seizing this castle would deal a massive shock to the people of Settsu and be a great blow to the Miyoshi clan,” Kira Yoshitoki said earnestly.

Watching James Jory rush out of the ward, Wu Tianlin knew he was likely going to verify his earlier statement. But Wu Tianlin was focused on identifying the issues he encountered during treatment and didn’t linger in the ward. Taking the lead, he left to check on other wards.

When Fan Xian and Zheng Tuo stepped out of the government office, they were surprised to find Song Shiren waiting outside for them.

Regarding the reason for resigning from office, Wang Tong naturally wouldn’t admit to knowing the court’s difficulties or resigning due to his surname. He only claimed he had fallen seriously ill. After diagnosis, the doctor advised him to recuperate in the warm and humid Jiangnan, as the harsh cold was damaging to his health. He had felt unwell throughout the Eastern Campaign.

“Fine, as long as you become my disciple, I promise you can defeat him!” The eerie voice sounded again.

Wu Tianlin did not tell Tom about this discovery. Therefore, in Tom’s eyes, both experiments were failures. Although he didn’t understand why Wu Tianlin’s health method suddenly caused the Grim Reaper virus to die, he immediately prepared another sample of the virus, awaiting Wu Tianlin’s third round of research.
