Chapter 123: Sixth Rank

Bang!

Chen Bin was held back by Ye Cheng and couldn’t break free. The palm strike struck him from a distance, causing his body to lurch forward.

Seizing the opportunity, Ye Cheng hurriedly channeled his internal energy and delivered a palm strike to Chen Bin’s chest, producing the sound of cracking bones.

Then, Ye Cheng frantically circulated his inner power, drawing Chen Bin’s energy relentlessly into his own body.

...

During the Qingming Festival, many people came to pay their respects, most dressed in plain-colored clothes. Ahead, a man wearing sunglasses carried a large bouquet of flowers, climbing the steps alone.

The receptionist didn’t even have time to react before he was flung out, crashing through the wall of Boya Building and tumbling inside.

Yet, if used for military purposes, such a simple arrangement would be more than sufficient. After all, there is no need for comfort in war.

Long Jiu stayed there casually, but his heart was full of anxiety. If something truly happened to Mao Qing’er, the longer he delayed here, the more dangerous it would be for her. If he found out who the envoy was but couldn’t leave, it would be a great loss.

Once this thought took root, it only grew larger, spreading relentlessly in Ge Mao’s mind. The more he pondered, the more terrifying it seemed.

“You and the teacher take him and the venomous snake to the hospital. I’ll come over once I finish my business,” Chen Beizhen said.

Just as they were chatting and laughing, a familiar figure approached. From afar, the man appeared strong and resolute, his brows radiating an invisible aura of dominance.

Danbi and Er, two core lieutenants of Zhang Tianqi, had almost been killed by Wang Tianba while trying to save Wang Lu! Both were clearly tough men, certainly not ones to talk much.

Faced with the faint breath and unconscious state of the Su family hero, tears welled up in the eyes of those present as they silently prayed for her safety.

She had endured a hellish existence these past few days, constantly fleeing, only to be captured again and subjected to even harsher torture.

Tang Yue came over with Xiao Yun’er and helped Ling Feng ashore, placing him on the beach and immediately beginning treatment without hesitation.

I thought the house might be here. This entire area had only one haunted house. If the brick wasn’t hidden here, then I’d truly be at a loss.

When the emperor heard that the reckless Liu Chuan had arrived, he was stunned. “Good heavens! Is this man mad? He dares to cause trouble—does he not fear the consequences? Or does he think the Empire of Wushuang is leaderless?”

The expressions of the Xiyuan sisters changed suddenly but quickly eased. It was no surprise that the Zodiac Special Assassination Squad knew about them. Both factions belonged to the underworld, so their intelligence network was exceptionally sharp. This was a matter of survival; any negligence could lead to death without even knowing the cause.

Sniffing the scent of blood that drifted from the room, Xi Ze took a deep breath, his nerves taut as a bowstring, then stepped inside.

Fang Yan remained silent, quietly watching her. Through the faint light, he thought she was even more beautiful than before.

With such terrifying beasts roaming here, to hope to return safely from these waters to land was pure fantasy. The old man before must have been trapped here by his own power.

Su Le stared at Yi’er, asking, “Is it really like this? Could there be another reason?” Given Yi’er’s abilities, it seemed unnecessary for her to join the Truth group, yet she did so willingly and even took the initiative to ask.

And then, for something as simple as egg fried rice, would the judges prefer golden-wrapped silver, silver-wrapped gold, or some other style?

Wang Bingbing spoke immediately, as if still feeling guilty about Wang Kuang’s situation and wanting to help Ye Tian more.

Wan Yuzhi finished writing, walked up to Gao Yong, and tossed the paper to him.
