Volume 1, Chapter 61: The Xie Family Is Going Bankrupt

Hearing this, Liu Mingyuan's expression instantly turned rather unsightly.

He forced a dry laugh and attempted to explain, "Big Boss, you've misunderstood. The subordinates were handling the coordination at the time, and there might have been a procedural glitch. I'll have people look into it right away and make sure the remaining balance is paid as soon as possible."

"...I will go and speak with them." Sedorum looked melancholy, the wrinkles on his face deepening. After his conversation with Davus, he seemed to have aged a few more years.

This was also why, despite the vast number of martial artists, those who could truly step into the divine realm, or even the supreme realm, were countable on one's fingers.

Luo Chen had become a core disciple right upon entering; this was undoubtedly an extremely rare occurrence. How could they not be shocked?

"What's the situation with those Romans who fled into the city?" Upon seeing him, Davus immediately asked.

Later on, the demon clan unexpectedly replenished another three million demon beasts in the Eastern Territory, establishing a heavily guarded defense there. Meng Xingrong instantly realized that the enemy strategist had figured out her objective. With her purpose exposed, she almost felt like resigning on the spot.

"If you want me dead, then I'll kill you first!" At this moment, Sun Dahai was even more desperate to kill Li Cheng so he could devour Li Cheng's vital breath to make up for his own losses, and thus he directly and frantically lunged toward Li Cheng.

For a moment, Zi Lingfeng, Qin Yuyan, and the chiefs of the remaining seven clans also hurriedly stepped forward, showing their concern.

Even though the martial arts inheritances of the myriad realms had experienced declines and troughs, destructions and severances, through countless years of development, the refinement and might of divine abilities still surpassed those of Island Master Qingchuan.

Halfway through the banquet, a messenger burst in, holding a letter written to Achaias by an official inside the city, stating that the matter was of great importance and urging him to open and read it immediately.

Yet, the eerily silent environment and the overwhelming, oppressive demonic aura still made it hard for anyone to breathe. No one knew when this mighty demon would launch an attack and breach Sixue City.

Liu Jinhong ran toward the house as soon as she finished speaking, a sight that somewhat startled me. Wang Zengliang looked at me and said, "Third Master, do you still think Feng Wanquan was killed by me?"

"Hiss..." The snakes, inches away, were jolted out of their daze by Ziyu's high-pitched scream. They immediately hissed and closed in on Ziyu.

The vast majority were the disciples from the outer Geng sector who had joined within the last ten years, numbering several thousand. These disciples held the lowest status and received the worst treatment. They were only permitted to cultivate after finishing all kinds of menial chores every day.

Wang Hong cursed Yan Liu in anger and humiliation, but Yan Liu remained unbothered. He lifted the mosquito net and looked at the person lying on the bed; her face was pale as death, and there was even a long, slender bruise on her forehead.

Hearing this, I furrowed my brow. Watching Wang Zengliang lead a group of people away while Liu Jinhong followed behind, trying to block and stop them, I knew Liu Jinhong did not want anyone to destroy her man's grave. That was a dragon-vein treasure spot capable of blessing her with wealth; if it were destroyed, her fortune would surely be broken.

At once, she helped Ming Chenye sit down, pushed aside the robe on his legs, and revealed his restrained feet.

As for the iron plate box in her hand, it was something Nangong Yu had specially refined for the two of them to communicate with after she told him about smartphones.

Luo Yu did not say anything more to Ming Chenye here. Some things had to be spoken of, because she could not bear such heavy grace.

In early September of the first year of Zhangwu in Shu-Han, Emperor Liu Bei of Han mobilized seventy thousand troops from Sichuan at Baidi City, advancing via both land and water. Joining forces with General Who Conquers the East Guan Ping's division of forty thousand from Jingzhou and Xiangyang, they amassed a combined force of one hundred and ten thousand—claimed to be two hundred thousand—and moved down the river, pressing directly upon Jiangxia.
