Chapter 22

After regrouping, everyone entered the "Demon-Sealing Tower" with a clear objective: to head straight toward the teleportation array. Upon reaching the third floor, they set up camp near the teleportation array on that level. Once inside the tower, I took the initiative to help Cai by carrying the traveler's backpack, for equipment like this could not be stored in pouches or other spatial containers.

After suppressing the injuries within his body, Gu Chen dashed forward at great speed.

"Well, it’s alright. Don’t you hate me?" Ling Feng said with a bitter smile, unable to meet his gaze and only daring to speak to him, knowing full well how much he owed him.

This relieved Nameless greatly; he had witnessed firsthand the overwhelming power of Wang Yuan—a strike at the pinnacle of the Celestial Immortal level. Though it came at a great cost, if it were to be unleashed, Feng Ya could not afford such an injury.

This action was extremely perilous, yet Chen Ting’s heart was filled with an unyielding desire to try. She was clever, decisive in action, and, most importantly, possessed a fearless spirit of adventure when choosing the right path.

A ripple of energy emerged in the void above the mountains. Like tears in plastic sheets being torn apart, several spatial rifts appeared, from which all manner of demons and ghosts stepped out.

"Enough, enough. The past is behind us. I’m glad you’re back. As I always say, as long as I have a bite to eat, you won’t go hungry," I said, punching Chen Guangrong hard in the chest.

Naturally, these patients recognized Yang Ming, now an in-demand divine doctor. They immediately followed his instructions, restraining the patients and laying them flat.

She suffered from intermittent amnesia, meaning the lady’s memories might have reverted to four years ago, to the time when they first met.

No one expected such a sudden turn of events. Gao Xiaoshen’s henchmen angrily jumped down from the excavator and charged forward recklessly.

Later, when Sword Swordsman ascended to become the second-largest sect in the Mortal Realm, the sect leader pointed out a detail during the conversation when the Sword Swordsman attempted to change the sect ranking.

"You're right. Ji Fa did swim here once; it was I who threw him in," Wang Hao laughed.

Since graduating from Saint Cyr Military Academy in 1887, Wei Gang steadily climbed the ranks over thirty years to become a member of France’s highest military council.

Xiao Yinghao swaggered into Jianye City, almost taking no detours as he headed straight for the Jianye Royal Residence.

"Splendid! This is the style of our Eternal Life Palace!" Emperor Sheng Tianwu laughed heartily, basking in triumph.

"Especially, the sooner we completely defeat Britain, the less the Japanese Navy’s tasks will be," Reinhardt emphasized.

"By decree," Nezha said, stepping up to Yang Guang, breaking his ten fingers, causing blood to pour and Yang Guang to scream in agony.

Speaking was the head of the Tianmen Hall, who, despite his longing, asked in disbelief, "No more nonsense?"

Feng Lin had already unleashed full power to fly, but after so long, no one knew what might be happening over there.

At the time, many counties in Lei Commandery had yet to declare allegiance. If Leiyuan intended to attack the central commandery, they would have to pass through these counties first.

Following the trail of the potion, he discovered someone had tried to lure poisonous snakes into his room.

It was simple: since enrollment, everyone knew Mingfei’s hometown was Shenyang. If the destination this time was Shenyang, then the purpose was clear.

Unexpectedly, after Lin Ke spoke, Han Dongji’s expression grew even more troubled, murmuring, "Why is it like this? Why is it me?" His gaze blankly fixed on where the Second Prince resided.

The four decided it was time to go see for themselves, no longer willing to wait. They promptly ordered their departure to Taiyuan, bringing along a formidable escort of one hundred thousand guards, marching grandly out of the capital.

Yun Xiao reached the gate and saw the High Priest sitting elegantly at the table, sipping tea behind a golden mask.

"The empire belongs to your old Li family, and you will become imperial relatives. Isn’t that good?" For the first time, Mingfei felt she could truly open up to a man.

In truth, he thought this was a minor, inconsequential move. The Song of Ice and Fire suited him better as a place of relaxation and refuge.

But whether by psychological effect or not, Han Jinyu felt his fingertips had indeed thickened just a little.

Jiang Yingying glanced back at me, mouth slightly open in surprise. Since she abandoned her companions last time, fewer people surrounded her. The classmate who cleaned the floors had also ignored Jiang Yingying. She had grown much more low-key. If I weren’t paying attention, I would forget I even had such a cousin.

Worried about Yan Mingfei’s injuries, Yang Yu cut the palace banquet short and hurried to visit Mingfei.

With the food issue fully resolved, the next step was to consider further expanding Yuan Guo’s other industries.

"Hey, why did I hit you? Can’t you see? I hit you because you’re naughty and disobedient. Are you satisfied? Tell me, how did you end up here?" Liu Chuan asked.

"On the battlefield, achieving victory through strategy is common. Shall our lord forbid us from using fire attacks or flooding? Fighting the enemy head-on? Then what use are we strategists?"

To be honest, Liu Chuan was somewhat afraid. What if he mistakenly entered the demon realm?

Wu Fei, seeing this, finally drew his peachwood sword. Unfortunately, he was struck down before he could even make a move. It seemed Wu Fei was badly hurt; lying on the ground, he closed his eyes, and no one knew if he might die.

Liu Ye was first relieved to see Xu Huang’s actions and patted his shoulders vigorously. Then he resumed his seat at the head and ordered all subordinates still in the hall.

Liu Chuan had no intention of listening to them anymore; he was long no longer on the same path. Their understanding was too shallow. Following their way, what realm could they reach? Surely only what they called “Grandmaster” at best.

Thus, when Zhou Cang arrived at the county government, Liu Ye quickly signaled two soldiers inside to escort Zhou Cang to the jail for temporary detention. As for his fate, Liu Ye planned to discuss with Xu Shu and others before making a decision.
