Chapter 41

"..." Yan Qing looked helplessly at Rong Yixia, who remained frozen in place, truly at a loss for words.

If he were to leave now, his senior brother and she might still be able to preserve appearances and deceive the world, which would, in a way, protect the last two heirs of Plum Villa.

However, regardless of whether Nana accepted this fact or not, reality would remain unchanged. The silhouette of Ellen Mira Mathers, wielding a laser blade, was reflected in Nana’s eyes as she lay on the ground.

"My babies! Your father has missed you so much!" Leng Yihan greeted them excitedly, pulling both children tightly into his embrace.

The military camp was situated two miles outside of Shandan Town, with the officers' quarters located in a large courtyard within the town itself. Stretching for ten miles, the camp looked quite spectacular from a distance.

"Pain? Is this what people mean when they talk about 'ball-aching' pain? Then let's just smash them!" Totori laughed, looking quite innocent, if not for her eyes being slightly obscured by her hair, which gave her a somewhat sinister air.

Unlike the camouflage uniforms from last time, the school had issued green military outfits this time, complete with belts at the waist. While they weren't as stuffy as the camouflage and looked much more pleasing, the biggest problem was... they didn't come with hats.

Lin Xiaoxiao remained in the manager's chair, having set aside the water and towels, watching as the five young men huddled together to discuss their strategic deployment.

"Boss Ba! We should retreat! Let's abandon the gold for now. We can come back and seize it after we escape; they won't be able to transport it out," one of the bodyguards urged, pulling at the frantic Chai Ba.

All four of them raised their guns, aiming at the corner fifty meters ahead. Sure enough, after a moment, a harsh metallic screech emanated from the front, and a massive behemoth appeared before them.

The city of Iecotl was transformed into a sea of flames. The dense bombardment of lightning lasted for five minutes, but for Iecotl, those five minutes were undoubtedly a catastrophe.

As he spoke, he kicked a slightly larger stone near his foot into a depression. The stone landed in the pit, creating small cavities, only for the ground to immediately restore itself.

Under normal circumstances, Chang Tian would never pay attention to such people; he would simply drive away those who were being unreasonable and unruly. If they persisted in acting recklessly, he would surely grant them their wish for an early death. But not now—in such a public setting, he could not do so.

One must realize that these sword glows were transformed from the Five Elements Immortal Swords; how could ordinary treasures possibly compare to them?

Zhu Changluo felt secretly ashamed, thinking that this fellow had clearly promised not to speak recklessly before the Palace Master, yet he had forgotten it entirely in the blink of an eye.

If it weren't for Ye Xingchen fighting his way up with such desperation, his situation in the Canglan Empire would not have been any better.

Hu Mei’er tied up the old man, gagged him with a strip of cloth to prevent him from making any noise, and finally tossed him onto the ground.

Han Xiao rubbed the bridge of his nose. Although Ji Changfeng had not yet relayed the message the Sect Master had intended for him, he knew very well that the Holy Soul Palace must have made some concessions toward him.

Watching the Meteor Lamp being sent away, Qiu Tian wiped the heavy sweat from her forehead and let out a nervous sigh of relief.

Shen Huaiqing stood stiffly at the bathroom door, fearing that the person inside might make the slightest sound. Once Fu Chen discovered them, no one would be able to leave this place unscathed.

Si Bai was held down by the neck by You Ce; he tried to lean toward Shen Qingyi, but found himself completely unable to move.

Su Yanwen and Su Wan’er were, of course, familiar with the melody "Spring Snow." The teacher their family hired to teach the zither was quite renowned, and his research into the instrument was extensive; he was familiar with almost every score.

Seeing Red after such a long time, Yushu let his heavy eyelids droop, his mouth twitching as he emitted sounds that seemed to belong to the underworld, laughing with a manic, nervous energy.

The remaining content on the tattered notice board was insufficient to form any decent analysis or speculation.

Noticing his change, a cold sneer appeared at the corner of Yu Xiang’s mouth. Without even raising his eyelids, he began to interrogate Heavenly Punishment.

Watching the incessantly chattering Ji Qianqin, for some reason, Bai Ling suddenly felt like a mother "standing next to her child at home, listening to them ramble on about stories from school."

Regarding this, Qiu Tian also found herself at a loss. After all, if this matter were not handled well, it would not only cause a loss of face but could very likely lead to widespread disaster.

When observing carefully, one felt that those upturned eyes seemed to hold a trace of cold mockery. Everyone felt as if they had seen a lively spirit emerge from the flower bushes, parting the blossoms and brushing past the willows as it approached.

He hurriedly clicked on the [Trade] tab on his virtual screen, searching for trade orders for various tools.

The information provided by Xuanwu was very important to Zhang Muzi. He knew that he could not tell Bai Hu and the others about such things right now, or it would only place unnecessary pressure on them.

"He's down there, he's not dead yet! We're going down! You all take the long way around!" With that, he leaped over the edge and jumped straight down the cliff.

Soldier equipment is divided into five tiers, but there is a vast variety. For example, wolf-hide armor and bear-hide armor are both Tier 2, but they provide different attribute bonuses. Wolf-hide armor primarily provides damage reduction, while bear-hide armor provides a percentage increase to a soldier's health. The same unit type will have vastly different effects when equipped with different gear.

"No, let's just eat like this. I feel she has quite a talent for acting," A-Qing said with a smile.

Emotionally, Conan felt that the person who had covered up their identity was the prime suspect, but his reason rejected this judgment.
