Chapter 175: Siege Is the Lesser Strategy; Winning the Heart Is the Greater One

“Ah, fate plays cruel tricks! I never imagined that you, Ye Cheng, once the formidable Grand Commander of the Seven Stars Water and Land Forces of the glorious Yanxia Dynasty, would fall to such a state.” Left Wise King sighed deeply, a flicker of doubt flashing in his eyes as he then turned his gaze toward his steward, Luan Taiping.

“Steward Luan, is this truly the person you brought to treat me...?”

Zeng Guofan suddenly shouted, “Announce it!” His voice rang out sharply, clearly showing his anger toward Zhao Meng.

That very night, Xiuquan had someone carve golden seals and write divine edicts, working tirelessly until dawn before everything was perfectly arranged.

Moreover, it was only after he had established a stable financial foundation that he decided to engage in such charitable endeavors. Had he remained as poor as before, struggling even to secure a meal, there would have been no chance to focus on public welfare.

The elemental energy flowed along the blade, expanding the vibrations outward. These subtle waves, once captured and integrated, could be released together to amplify their effect.

At this moment, Ling Feng’s stomach growled loudly; he was utterly famished.

However, iron pipes forged by the welding method tend to deform more severely than those made by boring or casting and welding. After fabrication, an internal wall finishing process with a lathe is still required.

Prepaying for such a premium live-stream room number was something Ling Feng had not anticipated.

Zhang Mingzhen and Yang Jinjue grew even more impressed with their new superior, whom they had only followed for just over a month. They silently vowed to serve their military lord loyally, hoping to secure a prosperous future for their families.

What was worse, they even harassed her roommates, trying to extract details about her daily activities, where she had been, and what she had eaten.

Sitting in the café, Xin Qing, though not strikingly beautiful, appeared charming and pleasant. Her plump figure, softened by the flowing fabric of her long skirt, looked well-proportioned and far from bulky.

The man with glasses opened a program, typing in a string of passwords with rapid keystrokes, then confidently pressed the enter key.

Below, the massive creature gradually weakened under Qin Yang’s relentless efforts, slowly being drawn closer to the surface. Qin Yang’s movements had become skillful and precise; he keenly sensed the pressure transmitted through the fishing line, choosing the perfect moments to release or reel it in, never allowing the opponent a moment’s respite.

A flash of sword light erupted from the ground; the earth trembled as the colossal beast shattered into countless fragments upon encountering resistance.

The three exchanged glances, then burst into laughter simultaneously, as if recalling some amusing memory.

Li Mo studied Bai Ling’er’s complexion—fair, tender, and flushed with a rosy glow as if adorned with peach petals—and remained silent for a long while.

At that moment, Ling Yi planted a torch in the ground and unleashed his three-thousand-percent power enhancement.

Tang Fan had briefly mentioned earlier that Lin Xianyue had detected a beam of light shooting into the northern sky, but no one expected someone to have arrived here because of its influence.

Alchemy consumed both spirit and energy, making it the most suitable cultivation method for her. When only a few medicinal herbs remained in her storage pouch, she began experimenting with local specialty herbs and pearls to refine pills. While she produced many, most had peculiar effects, and few truly helped boost cultivation.

Her eyes sparkled instantly, and without hesitation, Mebis answered and then took Zela’s hand.

Yet today, this “quasi-Demon God” could not help but doubt his own imaginative power as a mage.

Fine, you have your excuses. Tian Lai, you say you’re studying, but show me some progress, will you?

In this city, there were no hordes of low-level monsters, no mountains of corpses, no endless waves of undead.

Lolo was taken aback. “You know who I am?” She was cloaked and veiled to the utmost, concealing her physical features as much as possible.
