Chapter 20: A Tragic Past

It must be understood that this world lacks advanced technological means of communication; public opinion spreads solely by word of mouth, resulting in significant delays. It seems this matter cannot be simply brushed aside. One must clear their name. The common folk might say he relied on the influence of Prince Su, but they cannot accuse him while simultaneously treating Sun Yue as a good official. As for these commoners, Qin Yu was simply too indifferent... After all, the leader of the Fire-Eyed Giant Ape was only a Level Three magical beast. Even with abundant combat experience, he was no match for the senior swordsman, Warner. After a while, when Li Yan and the others arrived beside Oakreman and his group, Warner finally pierced the leader of the Fire-Eyed Giant Ape with a single sword, officially ending the battle. Qianyue kept agreeing repeatedly; the nurse smiled and teased that Qianyue was just brushing her off again. She sighed softly, shook her head, and was about to turn away when Qianyue suddenly knocked her unconscious. At this moment, Li Yan dared not move recklessly; human brains are incredibly delicate, and a slight misstep could be fatal. It was best not to disturb this strange energy. She had always tilted her head, hoping not to be noticed, but now realizing she could not hide, she had no choice but to turn around. Upon hearing this, Laolai also expressed regret, but before he could finish his breath, the carefree figure of Yuan Xiuyuan appeared in the distance, gradually approaching Song Duanwu and the others until he sat with them, wearing an expression as if nothing had happened. The rabble Lei Ming spoke of once comprised the Four Great Powers, led by Jin Xing. They had always regarded Mingyue as a thorn in their side but had been unable to harm her. Guo Lin took three round Heaven Refining Crystals, and as his spirit merged into the crystals, he could not look away. “What day is it today? Have I forgotten?” Situ Xiao reached out to touch Meng Zhu’s face, lowering his head to kiss her forehead and then her eyes. “Your Majesty, I feel this matter is not so simple…” Mistress Jinyun stopped crying as well.

The green waters still reflected the clear sky and bright sun, the fragrant flowers still accompanied the chirping birds. Judging by her demeanor, she seemed unlikely to harm her kin. So, should I intervene in this matter? I feel uncertain. One must admit Jeff’s expression and tone were spot on, but Jim had just taken time to brief him on Jeff’s battle records. Luo Tong, rational as ever, saw no need to blindly compete with the Turks in mounted archery; instead, he resolved to leverage the advantages of their Central Plains people, using combined arms to prepare for the imminent great battle. “No problem, I guarantee the repairs will be just like new,” Usopp said, holding up a hammer confidently. “Well done. You still have some backbone. Alright, rest here for the time of one incense stick; Captain Luo Yuan, come here,” Luo Tong nodded in satisfaction. Gu Zhengxiao looked at her with amusement; the expression was quite funny, and he even wanted to capture it as a photo. He didn’t believe the system could offer him anything good; its tone had always been accurate—just assistance. This year, food shortages plagued them, unable to pay sufficient military wages, barely maintaining the necessary 30,000 troops. Most of these were conscripts, so their combat effectiveness was predictable. Unexpectedly, the old lady suddenly made a move we hadn’t foreseen, leaving no time to react. Mu Yi spoke calmly; he did not want trouble but was not afraid of it. Since Qin Le had come knocking, he naturally could not back down. Doro did not place much trust in Sally either—who knew what might happen next? If Sally or the benevolent Zuo’er were to betray them, or if their side lost to the evil Zuo’er, these reserved pure soul crystals would be their last lifeline. At this moment, Luo Wuchang was narrating an exciting part; some lively disciples began clapping and cheering loudly. Yan Shuiyue saw Li Xun daydreaming and thought he hadn’t heard clearly, so she slightly curled her lips, revealing her true nature at last. All disciples in their sect could only nod; Xiao Yan’s excellence already decided everything. But after just half a turn, the opponent’s gaze pierced through him, bone-piercing and merciless, immediately freezing his body in place.

No one knew what kind of body structure this creature had! If not for the red, bloody blood splattered upon injury, Wang Ping would have begun to suspect they were under attack by some new type of mass-produced robot. It was decided; so we should wait quietly, but I hope she will not disappoint us. The four nodded in agreement. “Aunt directly revealed Ouyang Yi’s identity—aren’t you afraid I’ll take action?” Ji Wu walked over to the table and sat down, smiling at A Luo. Yet in the center, facing Terry, he couldn’t break into the penalty area; on the flank, he couldn’t get past Gala. The best Middlesbrough scorer after six rounds still couldn’t trouble Chelsea. Middlesbrough never truly threatened Chelsea with a shot. The gap between them was too vast. Lan Rongyue found the affairs of the harem too complicated; she couldn’t personally handle everything, nor could she devote all her time to these trivial matters. The eunuch Rui was trustworthy. With age and fading beauty, the grandmother fell from the clouds into the mire, wasting years and forced to learn to manage mundane affairs. Watching this scene, Muschetti and Miller could no longer help but applaud. Sun Liang actually felt one should be a little selfish at times like this; after all, food was precious in the apocalypse. But these things were not rare to him, and he wanted a companion as well. Plus, he hoped to obtain some useful information—it was just trivial stuff anyway. He successfully resolved the issues in the game engine, thanks to the “Master-level Game Design Skill Pack.” In the near future, when most life-saving medicines have cheap alternatives developed, the world will become a better place. While these entertainment stars strive for an audition or an endorsement, Su Chen is already on his way to becoming the godfather of the entertainment industry.
