Chapter 94: To Catch the Tiger Cub, One Must Enter the Tiger’s Den

Hearing Tang Yu say that, Ye Yue found it hard to object. She could only tighten her grip on the long sword in her hand and say in a low voice, “Since Your Majesty says so, I will say no more. Rest assured, Your Majesty. So long as I am here, I will protect you with my life.”

Every time Tang Yu heard Ye Yue promise to keep him safe, he could not help but feel deeply moved.

He took Ye Yue’s small hand into his palm and smiled.

Aside from Tiger, the others in the Wolf Fang Mercenary Group were also rather curious why he had given that cloth bundle to General Will. But with the York army chief sitting nearby, they could only swallow their questions and sit obediently in the carriage, waiting to return to the inn, where Tiger could give them an explanation.

The Tree of Life smiled faintly, feeling greatly comforted to have given away the Life Pearl, as though it had at last fulfilled a long-cherished wish.

After rolling several times, he immediately put some distance between himself and Zhou Bingran. At the same time, since Nie Ying’s strike had failed, he too withdrew from Zhou Bingran, and the two sides once again fell into a standoff.

“This is no concern of yours. Lin Chong will naturally lead the men behind him in a charge and take back Yang Zhi’s body!” Lin Chong said, swinging himself up onto his horse.

According to the situation before, the Simuwu bronze cauldron should, like the bronze cauldron, have awakened long ago after he finished tempering his body. Yet it had shown no change at all.

Lanny was cultivating in Sunu’s room. To avoid disturbing him, Tiger brought the two of them to his own room.

But in order to unravel the mystery of the declining bloodline, Lin Qiying truly no longer cared about much else. If one day in the future the descendants of the Lin family were really to be harmed by the ancestral object in his hands, as Bu Fan had said, then that might well be the Lin family’s greatest sorrow.

Seeing this, Zhu Wu also ordered the accompanying military cadets to relay his command to Sun An, Xu Jing, and Xiang Yuanzhen: only when the night was deep and quiet, and the enemy could not discover them, were they to quietly withdraw their troops and return to the main camp.

Lady Li had long known that Tao Zhuohua was generous with money. Now that she saw Tao Zhuohua asking her for a favor, she waited for quite a while yet still did not receive the expected purse, and her patience had already worn thin.

However, those who accused Ye Zhixing were all glared back into silence by Lin Lili without mercy.

That Thousand-Year Drunk really was nectar of the gods. The moment it was poured out, the whole room was filled with fragrance, enough to make mouths water.

The lids had all been removed from the wooden tubs, and clean white cloth had been spread over the tops. Yang Changfa first sent the bean sprouts to Fortune Inn, then went to buy a knife. There was only one kitchen cleaver at home, and since the braised meat also had to be sliced, another knife was needed. By the time Yang Changfa returned, everything was ready.

It had been several days since he last saw the child. He really missed him. One day apart feels like three years; how many years had it been now?

After eating, he did not wash the dishes. That was something that happened so rarely it was almost unheard of. He went to the computer and continued writing.

This kind of surge of energy was unlike any he usually encountered, yet he could not quite put the feeling into words.

Ma Yong waved a hand and paid it no mind. If he were Bai Qi, he would certainly have struck too. Unfortunately, he was now the commander of the entire Left Second Route Army; otherwise, he would have ridden out alone as well. At a moment of life and death, if one did not even have that much courage, how could one still call himself a good brother?

“The Wheel of Ten Thousand Tribulations. It is said that when the Lord Buddha once saved all living beings, he would summon the Wheel of Ten Thousand Tribulations whenever he encountered those beyond redemption, sending all creatures onward into the cycle of rebirth. It is one of the most fearsome killing weapons of the Buddhist faith.” Xia Mu’s eyes flashed with wisdom as he immediately recognized the wheel’s origin.

As Jiu’er listened to Shangguan Yu speaking, she had meant to ignore that searing gaze. In the end, she could bear it no longer and let her eyes settle on Song Jue. The fellow looked at her without the slightest attempt to avoid her gaze; their eyes met head-on, utterly open and aboveboard.

“This task is extremely arduous. The workload is heavy, and it also requires coordination with the immigration office. Even when something comes up in the ministry, we cannot simply ignore it. I’ve made you both suffer,” she said.
