Yet the lords who commanded the armies welcomed these commoners, who clung to the military like parasites to survive. Not only could they collect taxes from them, they also believed that this was an effective way to maintain the army’s morale.
After stepping out of the Voidship, Lin Tianyang discovered a beautiful landscape of verdant mountains, limpid streams, and flowers blooming in profusion.
It was not long before Li Yuling appeared before them again. Compared with the casual clothes she had worn earlier, her military uniform gave her an instant air of bold and spirited elegance.
“Could it be that the game’s creators saw a projection of the World of Telos in their dreams?” Gordon asked.
When the hunched old man arrived, the Demon Wings magnate sitting at the very front with a sullen expression straightened slightly and greeted him in a hoarse voice.
But the Black Dragon Prince clearly had no time to spare. As the Radiant Battleblade drew closer and closer, he struggled and twisted frantically. Every dragon’s roar carried various spell incantations, yet the moment arcane energy began to take shape, it was immediately suppressed by the invisible barrier, then dispersed into nothingness.
Ever since obtaining the Yin-Yang Bottle, Lin Tianyang had thought about finding a piece of Yin-Yang Jade like this, but he had never managed to do so. Who would have thought he would encounter one here?
“Fill the gap!” the bare-chested man shouted.
The soldiers in the opposing formation writhed for a moment before more than a dozen of them stepped forward. They thrust their spears through the gaps in the wooden wall while pressing their bodies tightly against the corpses of their fallen comrades. The thorns, now somewhat sparse, were filled in at once, once again baring their vicious fangs toward the New Righteous Army.
“Ah… I won’t hide it from you, Grand General of the Northern Campaign. I do indeed know the Grass Sword, but it is a secret of my school. If I reveal it, it would damage the reputation of my late master.”
Master Shidao’an sighed awkwardly and shook his head repeatedly, actually refusing Shi Qing’s request.
The two people in the photograph appeared extremely intimate. They held hands, their smiles sweet and radiant with happiness.
“Because before I see her, I must first cleanse myself of my sins!”
Qiong’en gently patted the warhorse beneath him. It was the gentlest mare in the entire town, given to him earlier by Mayor Redpass.
Liang’s mother had only wanted to trap Tang Sheng and then kill her with her own hands. She had used a Yellow-tier formation, which would not take Tang Sheng’s life. Liang Ge, trapped within the formation, would not lose his life either.

“As a mage who specializes in fire, controlling flames is the most basic lesson!”
She spoke with great pride.
The tavern fell silent. Two experts from the rankings had already been defeated by this young man in succession. Unless someone even stronger appeared, who would be willing to challenge him?
After a tremendous roar, the skeleton party arrived in a lush, flourishing forest outside Green Tower.
“In this condition, if they face the Spurs, Duncan and Popovich probably won’t be celebrating Christmas.”
Rikard instantly relaxed. It seemed that the pressure from outside had no effect on An Jie whatsoever.
“Let’s continue searching farther south!”
Sylvanas spoke, her voice somewhat dejected.
At that moment, Yao Ran was bathing in the river. Xia Zhi and Hua Tuo sat on the bank, the old man and the young man getting along remarkably well. Xia Zhi was explaining to Hua Tuo the plants they had seen beside the river. Although Hua Tuo had studied with Yao Ran for a long time, he had learned only about medicinal herbs; as for certain matters based on experience, even Yao Ran himself did not know them.
Li Wanjee was not a first-rate star in Korea—not even a solid second-tier one—but his singing ability was flawless. Coupled with his status as a Korean celebrity, he had become one of Huang Tianhai’s trump cards.
Wang Tianxiu could only laugh helplessly. In front of Fang Xiao, the richest man in Asia, no matter how impressive his family background was, it was still incomparable.
“Hahahaha…”
As I collapsed on the ground laughing wildly, I felt something tug at the back of my head. Someone had pulled away the cord tying up my hair.
Chen Shiquan always felt that this grandson was hiding something. On one hand, he provoked Chen Zixian; on the other, he acted timidly and did not dare contradict his aunt. Which one was the real Chen Mo? Chen Shiquan truly could not make sense of him.
“I think he intends to crush us psychologically first, then make us serve him. Do you really think Yuan Shikai is being kind by sparing us? In truth, he wants to drain every last bit of strength from all of us to achieve his greatest personal ambition.”
Gong Ren spoke.
Amai, the foremost of the six divine attendants of the God of War, possessed strength no inferior to the seven angels of the God of Light. In the past, they had fallen into slumber along with the God of War when he perished. They guarded the bloodline of the God of War in this land, waiting for his return. They firmly believed that their god had not vanished. They were waiting for his resurrection.

Yet she understood all too clearly her obsession with Wu Yulin. That obsession was so vivid to her because she had once been just as obsessed with Gao Yang. It was that same obsession that had carried her all the way to the present.
He raised his claw and slapped the dark-skinned young man away. Then the Berserk Lord vanished unwillingly.
Xiao Weisheng.
Those words left Gong Ren’s entire face flushed red. He glanced at Xipin and could not utter another word.
Bradley took Yingying’s hand and released a thread of divine sense to examine her condition. It was dire. She had lost far too much spiritual energy, and worse still, half her vitality was gone. Both her spiritual energy and vitality were continuing to drain away. To save her, they would have to find a spiritual treasure capable of increasing vitality.
“Pfft…”
Gong Shaoxie nearly spat out two mouthfuls of blood when he realized that Xia Fangyuan had actually entertained such a thought.
Shuixin’er and Ye Tianling accompanied Dean Bingxin into the inner room, one on either side of her, grumbling indignantly as they walked.
Now that Jiang Qiyan had heard Zhang Hao knew martial arts, she felt that, regardless of his level, she could at least learn a little from him with ease. That would make her own future research much smoother as well.
Immortal Ziwei appeared for two reasons: first, to explain the issue concerning the fated destinies of the two people mentioned earlier; and second, to give his elder brother Shui Qianchen a satisfactory ending.
As the Water-Chanting Sword crushed the void, countless blue rays formed a curtain of light that enveloped the opponent. All the crowd could hear was the sound of raging waves surging across the heavens, as though they had been cast into a sea beneath a violent storm.
