Chapter 53: Charging Ahead for Her

Jiang Nian gazed at the lifeless figure of Ding Ruoping in a momentary daze. The murmurs of the crowd ringing in her ears served as a constant reminder: if she failed to clear up this matter today, she would come to a miserable end, and Pei Jiuru even more so.

What she needed to do right now was to steady her state of mind. No matter whose trick this was, it was ultimately a scheme devised by human hands. As long as she kept her composure and refused to panic, she would definitely be able to find the flaws the opponent had left behind.

With that thought in mind, just as she was about to speak, she suddenly felt Pei Jiuru squeeze her palm.

Seeing Old Chen's expression, Brother Shu felt that he had successfully turned the tide, and burst into a hearty laugh. The dishes were finally all served, and only then did Brother Bin and the others take out their chopsticks.

Suddenly, Zhong Si crashed into his uncle's back. Raising his eyes, he saw the city gates not far ahead, where two soldiers were ruthlessly slaughtering commoners attempting to flee the city. Behind them, three more soldiers were killing their way along the path. Trembling, Zhong Si tightly clutched his uncle's arm, completely at a loss as to what to do.

From the first awakening of romantic feelings to experiencing the intimacy of love for the very first time, Yu Qing had given all her awkwardness and madness to Song Yanqing.

"Serve it all over again? Forget it, forget it, this is quite enough." Fu Qinghe wiped the beads of sweat from his forehead and continued, "I'm afraid it will be hard to finish all of this as it is." Hearing this, Zhao Ye smiled and remained silent.

The weak are far more prone to gaining pity than the strong. Although she didn't need it, as long as she could win over Song Yanqing, what did it matter to show a little vulnerability?

Xiao Jingjue returned in the afternoon, because he had to accompany Xiao Xuezhi to go out that evening. Xiao Jingjue had always attached great importance to matters concerning Xiao Xuezhi.

He Xuan figured that he only had a single yuan left, which wasn't even enough to buy a bottle of water. Wandering aimlessly on the streets was far too boring, so he might as well buy something to fill his stomach.

Zhongli faintly discerned a hint of wariness and grievance toward him in Wang Qi's words, giving him a splitting headache. He truly had no way to fully disclose the underlying reasons to Wang Qi, Hong Yanbo, and even Zhang Shicheng, because the implications involved were simply too vast and terrifying.

As for Wen Xiezhao, he gazed for a long time at the empress dowager's ferocious expression, feeling that this mother of his was truly becoming more and more unrecognizable to him.

He turned back and saw that familiar figure—handsome, upright, with a restrained aura and the elegance of his youth.

Just as Li Fei was about to transform into a wolf and pounce forward, Princess Yangu reached out a hand to block his movement.

Germany cast a wary glance at the searchlights behind him, which seemed to be searching for something, and fell into deep contemplation.

In short, ensuring that as many people as possible used the latrines of his Marquis of Jingyang estate was Li Fei's primary objective.

Accompanied by Qingxuan's battle cry, seven long swords shot toward Jiang Han with the speed of lightning, aiming directly at his head, limbs, and torso.

The Information Department, however, was different. Its main work consisted of accepting member registrations and then issuing and receiving tasks, yet he hadn't expected it to generate such a huge income in a single day.

Seeing that the old man had spoken, Old Monster Yin and the others were instantly granted a reprieve. Not daring to linger a moment longer, they hurriedly offered apologies and fled the scene.

Expressing his thanks to those two fools, Carter continued down the familiar path deeper inside. Although this was only his second time here, in his heart and mind, Carter had already wandered back and forth here countless times, just like in his own home.

Building after building crumbled under brute and violent force, then transformed into scattered debris that was pushed aside.

Now facing the impending devour of the Ancient Evil God, the Chaotic Evil God immediately unleashed the majority of its spikes. The close-range power was even greater, and sure enough, several spikes pierced right through the Ancient Evil God's tentacles. The impact of the spikes blasted open a gap in the entangling tentacles, and the Chaotic Evil God instantly seized the opportunity to escape, evading the suction of the Ancient Evil God's gaping maw.

Emperor Feng frowned slightly. Having achieved such a level of success after expending so much time and effort, he clearly had no intention of letting the matter rest.

"Sister Xin, have you truly never encountered a man who could stir your heart?" assistant Ah Lai asked gossiping.
