Chapter 140: A Farce

Even as arrogant as Su Xin'er used to be, before she completely broke ties with the Emperor, she never dared to injure the Emperor's personal serving eunuchs right inside his bedchamber.

Although these eunuchs held low status and lacked any martial arts background, their mere presence here—while killing a minor eunuch in itself was a trivial matter—doing so inside the Emperor's bedchamber, right in front of the Emperor (even though the Emperor was currently unconscious)...

Guided by the old hound, this overwhelming pressure surged forward along the direction of the Black Forest, spreading deep into its expanse.

"Understood!" Noelle nodded in agreement. Quick to react, she instantly assumed a defensive posture. Noelle could well be considered a seasoned mage of many battles! Through a month of rigorous training, she had learned how to cope with all kinds of magical beasts.

Qing Rang wore a look of utter disbelief. "You're actually much more perceptive than my thick-headed eldest brother; you must be a truly wonderful girl." Yu Er nodded, a faint flush perhaps concealed beneath his dark skin. The two exchanged a smile, which somehow lessened the impending sorrow of parting on this night.

At that moment, hearing Director Lu calling her, she glared fiercely at him before walking towards the monitor, only to find that mocking voice trailing right behind her.

Qing Rang looked at Fang Shijie holding her hand. Was such a plea for care a tender and affectionate protection, or a premeditated entanglement with ulterior motives?

Wu Xiaodi pursed her lips, her facial muscles twitching as she stubbornly fought back her tears, refusing to let them fall in front of Lin Xiao.

A solemn and stern warning echoed through the air. Ghost Shadow checked the time and wore a bitter expression—where on earth were they supposed to find an antidote in just twenty minutes?

Lin Xiao abruptly spun around, an agonizing pain tearing through his chest as large beads of sweat poured down his forehead like a cascading waterfall.

"I have no home left. I've been lying here for three days; even my enemies must think I'm dead by now. I have nowhere else to go." Having not spoken for so long, his voice came out hoarse. Tears welled up in his eyes, yet one could see him clenching his fists in fierce restraint, refusing to let them fall.

A moment later, Xi Xichen suddenly felt a sharp pain at her fingertip as Kaisa pierced it with a needle, squeezing out a single drop of blood.

The instant the spatial barrier was dissipated, Chen Nuo directly summoned his wings and soared into the air. Both the spatial barrier and various equipment had been treated for thermal insulation and fireproofing, concentrating all the heat within the arena. Xiu Chongkai immediately cast the same spatial barrier upon himself, continuously executing spatial teleportations across the ground.

Noticing that despite their somewhat sheltered appearance, the two women were dressed exquisitely and possessed an air unlike that of common folk, the bystanders assumed they were pampered maidservants from some wealthy household and dared not stir up trouble again. Only then did the two successfully enter the city.

Lan Xi realized she had spoken out of turn, but when has a mistress ever apologized to a servant? Deciding to drop the matter, she remained silent and continued to observe her surroundings.

With the agreement between both parties reached, Mina's face finally revealed the pure and innocent charm that truly belonged to her. She led the way to a rather secluded area of the ruins, during which they slaughtered no less than ten Level 120 Gold-tier Undead Bosses.

Everyone present witnessed firsthand how Jiang Qi was able to treat virtuous scholars with courtesy and employ them solely based on their abilities; this was precisely why so many men older than him were willing to follow him.

There was no doubt that spherical warships did suffer from the issue of insufficient centralized firepower facing forward—after all, the weapons at the back could not fire toward the front. However, because the firepower of a spherical warship was evenly distributed, it essentially meant there were no blind spots, granting it the highest survivability on the battlefield.

Looking at the patch of moisture on Zhou Mengyue's thighs, I understood everything in an instant, wishing desperately for a crack in the ground to open up so I could crawl into it.

Fine, I'll pour him a drink first. However, Ding Yaoyang's next words made Hao Xin halt in her tracks once more.

PS2: It's getting hot again, and I can already foresee the days of panting like a hot dog once more.

Emperor Wang gazed with a smile at Lan Xi, who was fast asleep. Just a moment ago, she had been boasting about making him unable to stand straight and forcing him to confess the truth, proving to be nothing more than a fragile and useless silver-plated wax spearhead.
