Volume One, Chapter 52: Schipper’s Confession

In recent years, Shi Bo often thought that if she had lived to the age of forty, her childhood memories must have played an indispensable role. Whenever she felt mentally exhausted or in pain, just thinking of those childhood days would make her laugh out loud, no matter the time or place.

As expected, after hearing Chen Weiyong’s words, Qian Qijun first let out a scoff, then without a word refused outright.

This group of martial artists who were the first to arrive from Nanshen Continent undoubtedly hailed from families with profound heritage and immense wealth. Otherwise, ordinary men from common households could never afford the expenses of hiring ships to sail thousands of miles or horses to gallop a thousand miles on this journey.

Chen Chang’an lied smoothly without a hint of blushing or heartbeat quickening. It seemed that Aunt Chun’s claw hadn’t been in vain; at the very least, he had regained control over his own body.

In fact, Chen Yuan had always regarded Zhou Sitong as a younger sister. Having a meal together was nothing unusual. However, his mind was currently consumed entirely by thoughts of that piece of jade.

The fifteenth day was perhaps the most stressful day of the year for the traffic in Changyang Town, Fangshan.

Gao Ge stood up and checked his phone. The screen showed an unfamiliar number. He walked outside a few steps before answering the call. The person on the other end was somewhat unexpected to him.

The entire Mountain and River Phenomenon Glazed Armor peeled away from the stele, forming a perfect sphere that merged gradually with Liu Chongming.

“Someone’s coming to cause trouble,” Sang Ruo squinted at the descending elevator and, rarely, said a word to Asezado.

Who would willingly see such a beautiful girl live like a fool?

However, he didn’t notice much complaint from Chu Chilie. Zheng Xinyi had helped him develop good habits, and at his age, his body did indeed appear far healthier and younger than others of the same years.

Several times I wanted to speak to Sister Ling, but each time, her cold gaze stopped me in my tracks.

Amid the Ming army’s howls, the blade carts crashed heavily against the Tatars’ shield wall. Even the strong Russian soldiers began to falter, and the shield wall wavered.

His tone was slow and unlike his usual self, making Su Ailu wonder if the Sixth Brother had said something to him.

Suddenly, she quickly shook off the unclean images in her mind and hurriedly grabbed the dress beside her to change into.

As Li Zhengming spoke, he motioned Lord Wang to sit down. Lord Wang promptly sat properly. To be honest, Marshal Li’s experience far surpassed his own.

They were always accustomed to their boss’s commanding manner, so having such a polite boss made them feel at ease.

Madam Liu eyed Gou Xun suspiciously. Although she had indeed seen this man beside the young master, she couldn’t rule out the possibility that he might be a spy.

Su Yijin’s voice was tinged with sorrow. She always worried that if her death were to be known by her grandfather, it would further damage his health, and that was the last thing she wanted to see.

“It was but a small favor. Cheng Jin need not take it to heart,” Ye Weishang said as he drained his drink.

A blue electric current flashed. The youth, maintaining a forward stance, suddenly fell face-first to the ground, blue sparks crackling over his body. Convulsing, he slid several meters before finally kicking his legs and losing consciousness.

Opposite Li Dingguo, unwilling to see his efforts fail, sent envoys hoping that General Sun Kewang of the Eastern Pacification Army could lead his troops to block the volunteer army’s reinforcements.

“Hehe, no, he’s just quite obsessed with chivalrous heroes. I even got him that outfit. He’s actually been dead for just over three years. The reason he can now become a hired spirit is because I found a way to help him,” Lou Xiaoxiao explained.

Forget it — that was the Space Gate personally supervised by the Pumpkin God during its construction. How could it possibly have a problem?
