Chapter 93: The Rebels’ Ambush

In the mountains, Liu Guiren had waited half an hour and still had not seen the crown prince enter the hills, so he brought several soldiers and came in person to investigate. When he saw Zhao Su and the others eating at the foot of the mountain, he was so angry he nearly spat blood.

"Damn it all, I am out here in the woods feeding mosquitoes, while you lot are enjoying fine wine and good food," he muttered bitterly.

It was already nearing the sixth month, and the weather had grown stiflingly hot...

Chen Feng had only just spoken when he realized his divine sense had been pulled back into his soul, which remained wrapped in a mass of blue-green energy.

Lu San was a man mad for theater. Whenever a village held an opera performance, or even when some household arranged a funeral and hired wind and drum musicians to sing funeral ballads for the dead, he had to rush over to watch and listen, taking every chance to indulge his passion for the stage.

All manner of magical attacks and arrows rained down upon Potato, but the invincible ice shield absorbed them all completely. With the shield held high, Potato roared.

Mo Suifeng instinctively glanced toward where the others had come from, but no one else was approaching. This bridegroom was not Xi Rong's; then who was he, and who was the man in the other bridal chamber?

"I..." A trace of happiness flashed through Kong Shiyun's eyes, yet she did not know how to explain.

Prince Jin looked toward Mo Suifeng. "I shall trouble you, Master Mo." Against the people of Jiuli, the first things to guard against were their poisons and the venomous insects they kept.

"Good! Just do as you say. I'll arrange it at once!" The monkey failed to catch the sulky edge in my words and actually scampered off cheerfully to assign the tasks.

Hearing Chen Hao's words, Elder Li also smiled. He had been waiting all along for exactly that answer from Chen Hao.

She shrieked in a fit of temper: "You lazy beast! You said you'd light the stove for me, and now you're running off with your back turned to the Kang platform! Want me to tear your ears off?" Mang'er grinned awkwardly, rubbing his sore backside. "I thought you hadn't struck the fire yet!" With that, he hopped out the door and hurried across the yard into the kitchen.

After the performance, Nicole bowed to the crowd and withdrew. About five minutes later, that excited young man appeared before me.

Jiaoyue's body lay right by the shore. From a distance it looked like a white strip, but up close one could see she wore white clothes, her chest soaked in blood, her hair disheveled and dripping wet, her face blurred beyond recognition. One arm had been broken, twisted in a grotesque angle.

"Moon Wing is about to unleash his true killing move!"

Those with keen eyes could already see that the power of the technique Moon Wing was using was nothing short of earthshaking.

The deeper one went beneath the lake, the stronger that sensation became. Yanwu could feel it: a tremendous force, the most wicked thought in the human heart.

How many years had it been since he last heard her voice, and how many years since he had seen her? Even amid the cycle of reincarnation, he had never once encountered Ling'er again.

"Good, good, good. So your Zhou family means to make an enemy of my Jiao Tiger Gang, is that it?" Man Hu laughed in fury, repeating "good" three times in a row.

Yet as Moon Wing's hand seals changed, the flames around his body seemed to have been fed a stimulant, blazing up furiously. Not only that, but the primal energy of heaven and earth began to surge madly toward him, finally gathering and settling around Moon Wing's body.

"So this is stronger? It still doesn't seem to be even a quarter of last time." The brainwave beam cage was truly effective. Long Ci was immensely encouraged; this was his own secret weapon, and he hoped that one day it would deliver a fatal blow to the aliens.

Once again he shook Yu Ying's body. This time Zhao Yuying did open her eyes, but they were bloodshot, clearly from lack of sleep.

However, Yun Xuan did not notice the change in the giant serpent's eyes. He raised his fist and smashed it straight into the beast's head.

Though he had absolute confidence that he could reclaim everything he had given away, Long Ci was truly worried that one day Lin Zhongmou would be unable to resist the demon within and strike at him. If that happened, all the effort of the past period would be wasted, and everything would have to begin again from the very start. But finding another suitable candidate was easier said than done.
