Chapter 131: Rivals Face Off

131

Fang Wenxuan stared blankly at Lin Hui. He had never seen Lin Hui lose his temper like this; even when they were at odds in the past, Lin Hui had never been this furious, nor had he ever scolded him in such a manner. But thinking that Lin Hui did it out of concern for him, and that he had caused his senior brother such worry, his anger dissipated, replaced by a deep sense of guilt.

"Senior brother, I’m sorry. I made you worry." Fang Wenxuan held Lin Hui’s hand, his head bowed, speaking in a muffled voice.

Lin Hui looked at the ink-black hair atop Fang Wenxuan’s head and his pale profile. Ultimately, he could not bear to say anything more. He reached out to stroke Fang Wenxuan’s hair and asked in a soft, gentle voice, "Does it still hurt?"

Upon hearing the tenderness in his senior brother’s tone, Fang Wenxuan knew he was no longer angry. He lifted his head slightly.

Of course, Wu Zongrui had learned from the lessons of the Ming Dynasty’s Brocade Guard and the Eastern Depot, and thus did not grant the Intelligence Division any power to execute punishments.

Cheng Xinxu was not the type to stand still and be beaten without fighting back, especially since the trouble had come to his own doorstep. And so, the two of them began a life-or-death struggle right at the palace gates, much to the deep, furrowed dismay of Venerable Guangyan.

Following the arc of the ball, the three-pointer swished steadily into the hoop! Gao Yang’s touch had remained hot lately; almost every shot he took went in. He wanted to live up to his title as the "Three-Point King," and he truly aspired to be the leader of the team.

Suddenly, the heavens and earth darkened, the wind roared, and the mountains cracked. Everywhere the shrill whistle passed, everything turned to dust, accompanied by flashes of lightning and rolls of thunder.

"I don’t want to join any faction right now; I don’t want to lose my freedom because of it," Mu Qibing expressed his inner thoughts.

However, after fight upon fight, he had indeed achieved a massive improvement on top of his Ninth-Level Blood Tempering foundation.

The predecessors of the Han Army were also soldiers of the Ming army, but after submitting to the Later Jin, they had indeed changed, and their combat effectiveness was significantly stronger. At least, that was what Jin Li believed; otherwise, he would not have led a thousand Han soldiers to face three thousand Ming troops.

Watching Fang Yun walk out from the forest, the expressions of all the Golden Light Sect disciples, including Jin Sanshi, shifted slightly.

Yamazato Shizuko was completely intimidated by the power displayed by Lin Feng. She didn't even notice that as Lin Feng continuously swung the Mirror Flower Sword, the blade light it produced grew increasingly intense.

Hong Taiji’s sudden summons sent ripples through Dai Shan’s heart. He could guess the reason, and he could understand Hong Taiji’s thinking, but he could not fathom why Hong Taiji would seek out a prince who had effectively retired.

In the world of Pirates of the Caribbean, mermaids were not the kind, beautiful, and bullied race seen in the world of One Piece.

"You, you, you really are something. Get up, I’ll take you to change your clothes in a moment." Li Chengqian looked at Li You with resignation. This foolish child was truly beyond saving, and he pulled him to his feet.

Chen Xu felt her fingers brushing against his face, a slight tickle. He looked down into her eyes, feeling the warm mist of her breath against his chin as she spoke, and his heart turned soft.

Shen Ruolan looked at the golden needle, then at Yang Zining. After a moment of thought, she still felt it was unlikely that Yang Zining could pierce through the tabletop with it.

In the open space of the chicken farm, "I am not from a rescue team, nor am I a good person. I will only ask you one last time: who is the leader here?" After saying this, I raised my right hand.

God knows how she managed to sleep in that position; it completely defied his worldview. Using her arms wasn't enough; she even had to clamp her legs around him... like an octopus. Zhang Zhe didn't dare move, fearing he might wake her up.

Wang Bo’s figure flashed, intercepting Ao Bai, and he unleashed the "Dragon Subduing Eighteen Palms," striking out with "Seeing the Dragon in the Field" without hesitation.

Cartel Beckett’s long sword slashed at Wang Bo’s wrist, but it was shattered by a powerful recoil force, the fragments flying toward the Stranger.

That so-called "guy with well-developed limbs and a simple mind" was just asking; there were others even more eager than he was.

Wei Jie’s heart stirred. He leaned in and whispered a few instructions to Zhang Da. Zhang Da nodded, stood up, and headed toward the entrance of the restaurant.

To be honest, White Butterfly had gained some notoriety in the circle by now. If she really wanted to switch teams, there were still plenty of platforms and legions willing to take her in.
