Volume 1, Chapter 47: What Has That Got to Do With Me

Standing to the side, Jiang Rui watched Wu Zhaodi's commanding presence, a hint of admiration flashing in her eyes.

Her logic was flawless, her composure unshakable, and she could strike back effortlessly against moral blackmail.

Jiang Rui believed that even if this young girl were trapped in such a place, one day she would break through her shackles, soar into a vast horizon, and shine brilliantly.

Today, however, was different. The entire long street was now crammed with curious onlookers, among whom were no shortage of troublemakers. They stood about, pointing and whispering at the people kneeling on the ground.

"When did you get so close to Fang Nuo? Is there anything else this traitor hasn't told you?" Bai Lingjing asked, half-joking and half-serious.

"You've just taken office and are unfamiliar with the situation regarding Team Aqua and Team Magma. Shouldn't you reconsider..." Elite Four Lorelei suggested.

Seeing Chen Lian and his two companions, the others naturally had nothing to say. Chen Lian smiled rather awkwardly. He walked up to the lock, inspected it, channeled his primordial spiritual energy into it, and struck it down with brute force.

This startled even Sun Quan, and everyone present was utterly stunned. The mirror was merely meant for reflection, yet it fetched a bid of one hundred thousand gold coins, and was ultimately won by Zhang Dafu.

Just as Chu Yun steadied his mind, a surge of vigorous energy welled up from his hitherto calm dantian, coursing through his entire body.

Su Yunliang naturally wanted to rescue Xuan Ji, but just as she was about to speak, a sudden thought struck her, making her feel that Long Zhan could not have suggested returning to the Dragon Clan without a reason.

Hu Tongying gave a respectful response, drew her dagger, approached Qin Hui, and forced his mouth open.

As soon as they entered the hospital room, they heard Bai Tangtian still coughing violently. The doctor hurriedly helped him soothe his breath and called a nurse to administer an aerosol treatment. Only then did Bai Tangtian's condition improve somewhat, and his breathing gradually grew steady.

Zhang Min's words were just as they appeared in text—fraught with danger. If not thoroughly considered, the risks she mentioned could very well materialize. This was why Zhang Min emphasized the need to prepare for sacrifice.

The weapon Liu Changsuo used was a weighted chain made of specially crafted threads, apparently forged from a unique metal. When it struck a person, it could instantly strip away a layer of flesh and blood. Ten minutes in, under Liu Changsuo's explosive output, both Huo Yiyang and Bi Ci were already covered in wounds.

However, before the chubby girl could reply, the shockingly handsome Jiang Chengce had already swaggered into the classroom and halted at the podium.

"Prime Minister! Prime Minister!" The heavy door swung open unceremoniously, and a messenger rushed in, flushed with excitement.

The aircraft were either the latest models or timeless classics, carrying hefty price tags of at least one million credits each.

People from the Blade Fortress, the Black Wind Fortress, and the Jiang Estate had likely already deployed men outside the Medicinal City, preparing to ambush and assassinate him.

A crisp sound came from Su Xue's mouth. Then, she was seen gently spitting out some skins, chewing on the nutmeat inside, and eating it just like that.

Deputy Captain Mochizuki had finally relied on formidable strength to halt the Flame Dragon team's twelve-game winning streak! Yet, correspondingly, Drake's injuries were evidently much more severe than Zhao Mingze's, making it impossible for him to take the stage again. Therefore, in the end, Deputy Captain Mochizuki could only be considered to have fought a three-round-two match.

Xie Han said: True brothers should live and die together! I simply didn't want my family torn apart, and you're demanding my death?

Before even stepping into the house, the eldest brother of the Chen family heard his wife's screeching curses. The target of her abuse was, naturally, the concubine who had entered the household before her.

Yan Yi looked up to the heavens and laughed heartily. Just as he was about to leave, True Monarch Chihuo and Huo Rong called out to him together, showering him with repeated instructions and exhortations.

What he said afterward, she could no longer recall. She only felt that the distress displayed on his peerless face was so genuine and helpless that it made her heart ache in sympathy.
