Chapter 30: Overwhelming Others with Power

With this thought, many people looked at Tang Yu with a hint of sympathy in their eyes. Whispering among themselves, they said, "Such a fine young man, what a pity." Some of the courtesans gazed enviously at the musician girl behind Tang Yu, saying, "If a man were willing to do so much for me, I would gladly die here and now."

...

Whenever Fu Xi left her waiting, Linlang would invite Madame Fu to chat and stroll through the streets together; sometimes, unable to decline their warm invitation, she stayed for dinner at the Fu household. The old master would pull her into a game of chess, only to be soundly defeated and wail in dismay, quickly summoning Father Fu to rescue him, but the two, old and robust alike, continued their tragic losing streak.

His body was so frail, as if all his energy had drained away. If Linlang hadn’t been the cause of all this, Wu Yuan wouldn’t have had the strength to persist.

With a loud crash, the steel blade in Chen Zhang’s hand shattered. The steel swords of the heavenly kings and Ye Tian’s silver spear struck Chen Zhang’s body, sending him flying like a kite and crashing heavily to the ground, carving a vast crater.

They knew well: if they still ruled the seas, it would have been tolerable, as it once was. But to dream of venturing onto the boundless ocean—now, that would truly be a fate worse than death.

With a dull thud, the twin-blade ninja was pinned down, bright red blood spraying from his mouth.

Emperor Jing’an certainly favored Qin Fengyi’s handsome looks, but if Qin Fengyi were the sort of fool who relieved himself under the chestnut tree in broad daylight, even if he were as beautiful as a celestial being, the Emperor could not like him.

This Ye Jiarou is truly cunning, scheming against her own sister both openly and secretly. One can’t help but marvel at her.

Zhang Hong pondered inwardly, his face betraying nothing. He was a trusted aide personally promoted by Su Ci, and consciously modeled his conduct on Su Ci’s decisive and ruthless style.

"It’s a pity that skirts these days are all so form-fitting," Yi Feishi lamented. His unique skill of bending his knees to lower his height was rendered useless.

Aside from the hundred strong warriors before Yutian, the rest amounted to barely two hundred in total.

"Didn’t you dream of becoming a chef? Why are you learning kicking techniques?" suppressing his startled heart, Yanagi asked in a calm voice.

But today, Yanagi felt he might attempt it after all. No matter how it went, with his insight as a master swordsman, surely nothing too disastrous would happen.

For anyone, things had already ceased to be simple or clear. Perhaps, at this moment, everyone understood deep down what kind of feeling these events carried within.

Mu Ge swiftly built a good relationship with Zhao Yun’s mother, and when they became sworn siblings, the elderly lady wholeheartedly approved, thinking that with such an obedient and eloquent son, she could laugh herself awake from her dreams.

Shen Ni pointed toward the void, and a jade seal slowly flew forth, radiating a chaotic glow and resting atop Shen Ni’s head.

Yutian had only set foot in four realms shaped by ultimate powerhouses. One was the Panlong realm occupied by Ling Tian, whose resources Ling Tian now monopolized, hindering Lin Lei’s growth.

At this moment, Amaterasu, who was gazing intently, was one of them. Yutian found it amusing, and could even picture Di Jun’s ashen face and the green hat on his head.

Anyway, even if the Emperor learned of it, they all harbored such thoughts in their hearts. They didn’t know what had transpired between Yang Chen and His Majesty; after all, Yang Chen used to be able to enter the imperial capital without even reporting his arrival—he had that privilege.

After three shots rang out, three rioters fell in succession! Without a doubt, Tang Xinyi’s marksmanship was excellent—she was a sharpshooter whose aim never missed.
