Chapter 48: The Wretched Yang Ming (Part 1)

Professor Lin looked at the people inside the room and introduced to Captain Ma, "These are all the personnel departing for America this time."

Captain Ma glanced over them, matching them one by one with the roster he had previously reviewed. After finishing his inspection, he nodded, "Good, then—"

He looked toward Lin Xiaoyan. "Shall we say a few words to everyone?"

Lin Xiaoyan: ......Although this matter is strictly confidential, there is no need to phrase it so stiffly!

Captain Ma took the lead in standing up and followed...

At an altitude of 2,678 meters on the edge of the precipice, a tall figure was slowly striking a strange pose.

In short, it was impossible to give a clear explanation about this matter, so I simply said nothing at all. Many things in life are probably just like this; who can ever predict anything with certainty?

He could not suppress his urge to reach out and touch it. His finger grazed the surface of the white wax—it was smooth, yet devoid of warmth.

From this, Sawen drew a conclusion: never try to outdrink someone from the East, otherwise, the only one who ends up defeated will be yourself. Just as Sawen was lost in thought, the cabin door suddenly clicked open, and Qiu Ying walked in. Only then did Sawen realize that he had been sleeping inside a cabin all this time.

The Daoist priest of the Five Elements experienced such violent turbulence in his mind and spirit that it triggered his vital energy, resulting in internal injuries. He pulled his Daoist robe to wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth and could not help frowning slightly, for it was only at this moment that he realized the tear had widened recently.

Seeing how grave Sawen's expression was, Naruosi's face instantly turned solemn. This was the first time Sawen had ever issued such an order; it seemed the importance of this matter surpassed any previous occasion.

Nilepa knew that this might well be the best and perhaps the only opportunity of his entire coaching career to truly make a name for himself.

On second thought, the return of the Imperial Princess would also liven up the Celestial Palace, and the Celestial Emperor and Empress would no longer look at them with stern expressions, which could be considered a good thing. Naturally, the immortals felt pleased in their hearts, only hoping that the Princess would not cause even more devastation than before.

This was a fascinating matchup. As soon as the scouts and general managers of several teams heard about the game, they all hurried over and crowded around the sidelines, hoping to uncover more of the players' specific traits through this competition.

Sawen, who had been relentlessly striking Alphasha, suddenly noticed that while Alphasha was parrying and maneuvering against him, he was also quietly murmuring something under his breath. Although he could not hear what the other was chanting, judging by the movement of his lips, Sawen guessed that Alphasha was most likely reciting a magical incantation.

"Ruyi, would you like to hold the baby?" As soon as she stepped into the back room, Taohong's face broke into a smile at the sight of Le Ruyi—a smile that was several degrees more sincere than the one in the front courtyard.

As for Jiang Shan's Falcon Special Operations Brigade, it happened to be just such a battle-tested and victorious unit. Being able to join a brigade like this was the dream of many junior officers and enlisted men. Now that Commander Jiang had taken a fancy to him, it showed that he still had some genuine competence when it came to fighting, and at the very least, he wouldn't be looked down upon.

The moment she stepped out of the car, Qian Shinuo caught sight of a familiar figure inside a Japanese restaurant across the street. Thinking her eyes were playing tricks on her, she rubbed them vigorously, wanting to make sure, but in that very instant, the figure flashed past and vanished.

"Yu... Yumin, don't be afraid. We haven't done anything wrong from the very beginning. He is the one who blew things out of proportion, so we are the ones standing on the side of justice. There is no need to apologize." Qian Shinuo must have swallowed the courage of a leopard to dare say such a thing.

The next day, as the sky was just beginning to grow pale with dawn, the imperial city was already bustling with a constant stream of people coming and going, presenting a most lively scene.

As for Tie Hao's ability to conceal his true strength, the Tie family members were quite pleased, because they all knew that a true genius was only a genius if he survived; a dead genius was no genius at all. Tie Hao's foresight was truly commendable.

"Flutter, flutter..." Mu Zuoer's ears twitched as she seemed to hear the sound of pigeons beating their wings.

Among all the people present, only the Second Mistress curled the corners of her lips, waiting eagerly to watch a good show. The son she had given birth to was useless and had been killed for nothing; she wanted to see how competent Bai Yun's son would turn out to be.
