Volume 1, Chapter 69: My Sister is Dead!

Chacha opened her eyes drowsily, wanting to steady herself against something and stand up, but her whole body felt limp and she could not move.
Where was Mimi?
Chacha looked around timidly, her eyes filled with fear. She seemed to be in a messy room filled with various barrels.
Chacha wrinkled her nose; there was also a strange smell in the air.
"General, are we not going to cut off the physical network connection points?" a technician asked with a puzzled tone.
So that was how it was. Liang Dong tried again to reach out to other mental energies. Sure enough, he encountered some scenes, but they were not the previous ones. When he tried once more to contact those mental energies that he could absorb, no matter how hard Liang Dong tried, there was no reaction whatsoever.
When he truly held her in his arms, the fulfillment and happiness in his heart no longer needed physical union to be proven. Even if they could only be like this, he was genuinely cherishing her, and at the same time, feeling that he was being cherished and drawn close to by her in the same way, with no barriers whatsoever between them.
"Yesterday, I had people inquire about the Xu family of Donghai," Ma Xingyao changed the topic and said indifferently.
The skill of self-detonation could be executed by any cultivator or creature possessing freely controllable energy. The resulting energy and power were so immense that they almost surpassed any capability the self-detonator could normally unleash, yet this process was not guaranteed to succeed every time.
"Our kings are all there, you should know that, right?" Since Lu Feiyang had already activated the token, finding others of his kind was of the utmost importance.
"Please help announce our presence. Just say that Li Ge and Lin Feng from Jiangnan City request an audience with Elder Xu Jingyang," Li Ge said from the side.
The bustling Tiansi City appeared quite desolate. Running all the way from the main street toward the Cao family residence, they hardly saw anyone at all.
"Brother Lin, it's about to begin. Are you ready... Uh?" The newcomer was none of us other than Iverson, but walking in on this scene, he was somewhat stunned.
Shui Yunfei engaged in deep self-reflection. It seemed his vigilance had dropped too much lately, and he had been thinking far too little, which was why he had this feeling of drifting aimlessly with the wind.
Thinking of this, Yu Liuming's mood improved considerably. With rare leisure at this moment, he could not help starting to observe the pedestrians and streets within the city around him.
Sovereign Yuhai obviously understood this principle, so not only did he show no disappointment whatsoever, but he felt even more at ease.
Under Zhao Xian's will, the authority of the Prince Su's Mansion was visibly diminishing. Previously, Xiang Ying also had to help Zhao Xian manage affairs, but in the past month or two, Zhao Xian could easily handle the matters of the Prince Su's Mansion by spending just an hour or two each day.
At that moment, the sound of galloping warhorses suddenly echoed. Zhao Yun's expression changed slightly. Escaping by himself would probably not be difficult, but with Fan Zhongyan's family to look after, how could they evade such a formidable force of cavalry? Judging by the commotion, there were likely nearly a thousand men.
After arranging the affairs of the Prince Su's Mansion, Zhao Xian paced to the backyard and pushed open the door to Xiang Ying's room.
This wall was originally a pure black, a purity several shades darker than the wicked scorpion. At this moment, as Mo Song's hand touched it, a faint red hue emerged upon it, resembling the color of blazing flames.
Xiong Ye looked up and laughed aloud. The flexing of his muscles dissipated much of the depression in his heart; although it felt rather uncomfortable, he had grown to love this sensation.
Hearing Zhao Xian ask this question, Zhao Xingsheng cast a respectful glance at Gu Pingosheng and then shook his head.
This informational asymmetry gave the White Wolf a massive advantage. He could weaponize the information he possessed into a verbal offensive, deceiving the snake-people by claiming the intelligence was confessed by another of their kind, thereby breaking through their psychological defenses.
The artillery and musketeer units introduced from Ottoman, or perhaps Persia, were crucial factors enabling Babur to sweep across Punjab in just a few short years and secure victory at the decisive Battle of Panipat.
