Volume One, Chapter 31: Beneath the Illustrious Reputation, a Hidden Crisis Unfolds

The return of Lin Fan and Liu Xuan was like the triumphant homecoming of heroes. Before the gates of the Divine Martial Academy, a sea of people gathered, their deafening cheers shaking the air.

Upon hearing these words, the crowd nodded and dispersed one by one. However, Venerable Lingxiao and Venerable Shanming exchanged a glance, shared a subtle, knowing smile, and then took their leave as well.

Almost simultaneously, a mission posted at the distant Bounty Hunter Hall underwent an immediate change.

High in the sky, Yu Wushuang and Black Rose savored a beauty that could never exist in the apocalypse. Before their combat suits had evolved, they could not fly very high and had to dodge turbulent currents, but here, at an altitude of a thousand meters, they moved as freely as fish in water, looking down at the sparkling sea and the spectacularly illuminated, sprawling city below.

Therefore, at the request of Hui Shi, King Hui of Wei decided to invite Zhuangzi to provide him with some guidance.

"Town Mayor?" Zhang Zhen picked up the Green Shield. Since the Green Shield was connected to the town's local network, he found Zhao Wunan and sent a message.

Putting away the seal and inkpad and organizing the resume to the side as if finishing a difficult task, Ye Chun leaned back into his chair.

Rows of milky-white candles lined both sides, more than half consumed, their flickering flames burning quietly; this was the only source of light in the basement.

In that instant, the Blade Spirit poured all the resentment and spiritual energy it had secretly accumulated over decades into the body of Old Huai.

After Zhuangzi arrived, he learned that the King of Qi had summoned Sun Bin and his ministers to discuss the invasion of his motherland, the State of Song.

Liu Hai employed his footwork to dodge the opponent's punch, and simultaneously, his Heavenly Sword danced, cleanly severing one of the opponent’s feet.

Yet, within her sight, that slender figure rushed forward, embracing the defeated loser with heartache, weeping tears for the injuries he had suffered.

Do not be fooled by Wan Yihui’s carefree demeanor; whenever anything concerned Ye Chu, she was exceptionally attentive. She knew Ye Chu’s preferences perfectly well.

Because of this, the group had no choice but to trace the records backward to roughly calculate how much grain the Guangji Granary took in each year, how much was disbursed, and how much had been distributed as disaster relief this time.

In the dark void, time seemed not to pass. An Yi kept her eyes closed, unable to perceive the existence of anything.

Not only were there offices for daily official business, but there also had to be a place for collecting commercial taxes. Fortunately, Xue Ting'an had been managing Dinghai County according to the logic of the Maritime Trade Office, so he could simply copy the existing model.

Wrapped in the swirling snow, Pei Dang did not hear the deity’s soft whisper. Every bone in his body was infused with divine genes, sharp and piercing, pushing him past his limits time and time again.

Previously, she had searched for the lyrics online; the song was indeed written by him personally, and there were no similar lyrics to be found anywhere on the internet.

Additionally, some blades and spears discarded by the military would be distributed to the various townships and villages, to be handed out by the village headmen to the young and able-bodied for the defense of their homes.

"Are you also a mage?" Li Xuan changed the subject. He had sensed the formidable magical power within Nahala the very first time he met her.

The Australian players fought with tenacity; having already been eliminated, they were playing this match purely for honor.

Bai Yue'an walked straight toward the paparazzi. Seeing he had been discovered, the paparazzo felt there was no need to continue hiding, and running was already out of the question.

Strictly speaking, Reverse Mountain was an utterly "barren mountain"; not only was it uninhabited, but it was also completely devoid of vegetation.

Everyone was stunned. They stared at the two corpses before them in disbelief, momentarily at a loss for words.
