Chapter Sixty-Three: Little Zi Is Missing

Fatty Zuo lifted his eyes and struggled to say, “Get out of here!”
I was on the verge of losing my mind, shouting, “I’ll give you back your stuff!”
With a swing of my arm, I hurled the extinguished lamp jade fiercely at the ghost in white.
The ghost in white hesitated, the hand stabbing Fatty Zuo’s belly pausing as it caught the jade. Seizing the opportunity, I brought down my broken blade upon the ghost with a speed swift as lightning.
...
Mr. Sha was startled—she should have been trembling in fear, so why was she smiling so happily? Could she have some ulterior motive?
“You’ve deceived me time and time again. I have no intention of treating Wang Keying’s illness,” Gu Yan refused bluntly.
To dare offend the prestige of the Eastern Divine Sword, there would naturally be someone to deal with them; Chen Xinghe wouldn’t need to intervene personally.
The proverb says, ‘A journey of a hundred miles is only half finished at ninety,’ meaning that the heart is unsteady. Yet, the final stretch before Gu Ao and the Sword Monk was far harder than any distance they had previously traversed. Now, only a hundred miles remained between Lanzhou and Jingzhou—a distance Gu Ao could cross in an instant, but now it felt utterly impossible.
It was neither matter nor energy, but a condensation of laws. Divine powers concentrated into laws, and laws into the Great Path. Before them lay countless laws, gathered into a great path resembling a brain.
Douya hiccupped from wine, instantly seeing that the earth demon before him had not agreed willingly.
Gathering his thoughts, He Maozhong straightened his posture; though the god before him wasn’t particularly powerful, it was still necessary to show proper respect.
“Director Du, to be honest, the information you provided has issues. He’s no ordinary man; his skills are strong. It’s only reasonable that we can’t match him,” the young security guard replied coldly, his heart filled with anger upon hearing this.
“Fine, we’ll discuss this later,” Liu Xin felt uneasy; she knew the truth—Jiang Li was here, and if he saw the Chidi Group sidelined and flew into a rage, it could drag her into trouble as well.
She had hoped to make a comeback at this awards ceremony, but in the end, she didn’t win a single prize.
After washing the dishes, we sat awkwardly on the living room sofa, while boring commercials played on the TV. I knew well our minds were elsewhere.
Guan Yu pondered for a moment, then looked up and asked, “Do you want the truth or a lie? If I tell you the truth, will you kill me in anger?”
Hundreds of thousands were struck down, skulls split and blood flowing, severed limbs scattered. Stunned for a moment, they turned and fled. Himiko burst into boisterous laughter, sounding the attack horn, and charged after Ken Saburo’s retreating army.
Yang Jinxin was stunned the moment she saw Qin Muyang, as if she’d been stabbed deep in her heart. Qin Muyang lay there, his head wrapped in thick bandages, yet blood still seeped through. He remained motionless, his face deathly pale, with only the faint rise and fall of his chest showing he was alive.
Wang Yan took quite some time to recover, and when he finally saw Liu Yan’er, he was utterly bewildered by her transformation.
As Liu Zhen finished speaking, a loud laugh echoed from the river. On a lone boat, an elder with grey hair and silver beard stood proudly at the prow.
“What? The first year of Xuanhe—that’s Emperor Huizong of Song…” Wu Xi realized he’d spoken out of turn and quickly closed his mouth.
Yet, when they were born, their cries were exceptionally loud, casting a lively and auspicious omen over the quiet snowy night.
“Don’t fall back! Attack!” Han Da believed the enemy was unsteady and wanted to break through with a wedge formation, but he was no match for Raymond.
Liu Yong’s plump face was flushed, a shade uncommon for his age; his eyes rolled upward, glaring fiercely at Guan Yu without uttering a word.
Thus, the Kirkwood Gap was the main checkpoint and defensive zone set by both the Earth Alliance and Mars Alliance.
