Chapter 118: Abstaining from All Conflicts

Leaving Azure Dragon Capital, Jiang Chen felt a swirl of complex emotions. Since the Jiang family’s assault on the imperial capital began, all forces under the Jiang Alliance had made immense sacrifices—manpower, material resources, and more. For these factions, such burdens weighed heavily.

At that moment, Jiang Chen suddenly understood the immense burden carried by the loyal warriors of the Jiang family. If it were just himself, he wouldn’t need to worry about so much, but now he bore the weight of many...

Meanwhile, Mu Linxiang had returned to her true appearance. Her breathtaking beauty, coupled with an elegant yet striking aura, instantly captivated everyone in the Ocean Hall.

Beside her, Xu Yanzhen, having heard Xu Zuiyi’s scream, wore an expression that was hard to decipher—was it ecstatic joy or anxious worry?

He had long heard rumors about the dark underbelly of the entertainment industry, but only now did he gain a clearer understanding of this so-called “darkness.”

He had known Chen Yan the longest and understood him well, so he could hazard a fairly accurate guess.

After speaking, Xie Zhentian slammed his fist heavily on the table, startling his mother nearby.

At this moment, Ning Zi’ang was tightly bound, blood oozing from his scalp wounds, his mouth sealed with tape.

The table must be controlled by a formidable mutant with telekinetic powers; someone like Wu Chun, a low-level mutant, was no match.

He closed his eyes, then opened them again, sweeping away all feelings of regret and sorrow.

Nanny Wang hurriedly tucked the red envelope and medicine pouch into her bosom and plopped into a chair. She realized she had fallen into an inescapable hell—she had betrayed her lady.

“No, you have ushered in a brand-new era for us. Reviving you is a reward,” said the noble mage.

“I’m serious. So, please give me a chance, alright?” Mu Ranxiao placed the rose in Jiang Nan’s arms and gently pressed a kiss to her forehead.

Unlike the Golden Dragon or Silver Dragon, the Brass Dragon is nominally benevolent but no less dangerous to humans. Especially when this dragon ‘plays’ with you out of goodwill, it’s easy to get fatally hurt.

Just as he was puzzled, the next moment left both him and Yi Wuyue wide-eyed and speechless.

The computer screen scrolled and stopped, displaying eight sets of data. The people had been separated. Ma Yi’s first match was against a worrying opponent—Dongfang Sheng.

The only difference from Yezi was that both of them needed to evade monsters during combat, unlike Yezi, who dominated over the monsters.

At that moment, Hu Xiaodie suddenly noticed a commotion in the hotel. Jiang Nan’s expression was grim; she pushed Mu Ranxiao aside, said a few words, and then left the hotel abruptly.

Bai He pondered briefly and, from a purely one-on-one duel perspective, unexpectedly drew a rather pessimistic conclusion.

“Don’t block me here; if I start unleashing chaos attacks, I might accidentally harm someone.”

Due to the complex village layout and the influx of outsiders, local residents, eager to rent out more houses and earn more rent, had built countless unauthorized structures.

Even if they didn’t dislike me, it wasn’t as if they liked me much either! Sun Yanling felt a pang of melancholy.

As the return journey loomed, the Fire Phoenix Special Forces Party Committee hosted a simple farewell dinner for the Shield Team members.

“Whenever you’re free, just say the word. I never refuse your requests anyway,” Bai Moyou said coquettishly, her eyes bright, paying no mind to Qing Lianyi’s slightly annoyed expression beside her, almost clinging to Feng Chen.

For several days, the dining table had been filled with nourishing dishes. Knowing he had specially instructed the kitchen to prepare them, she couldn’t resist. Unconsciously, a warm current flowed through her heart, making even the usually hard-to-swallow meals taste not so unpleasant.
