Chapter 27: It All Comes Down to Morality and Martial Virtue

Today, Yu Jiang traveled more than four hundred kilometers, completing the weekly mileage task. She continued methodically organizing the newly received materials, processing them, and then listing the surplus supplies on the trading platform. Although a small fee in crystal coins was charged here, it was very convenient.

She had been searching for mutant spider venom for two days to upgrade the poison rain but hadn't even seen a spider leg. The monster material supplier known as "X" also claimed never to have encountered it and advised her to wait for the dungeon.

“That must not be the Eye of the Pale Wolf,” Miao Renfeng thought to himself. However, the Primeval Eye, which had already reverted to its "one-eyed" form, showed no further movement. What was to be done?

In the distance, Li Yanqing seemed to struggle with his breakthrough, passing the basketball back to Sun Jing. Zhang Yang heightened his vigilance, but unfortunately, Sun Jing only dribbled twice before passing the ball back to Li Yanqing while beginning to retreat from the paint.

Martial beasts had their own channels of information, especially those like Skormo, who had lived among humans for a long time and knew well how to interact with human martial artists. They regularly traded with human fighters and cooperated with flying beasts, allowing them to gather comprehensive intelligence across the continent.

“Miao Tu, don’t ask me. Daoist Kai told me to arrive here first and wait. He said once Miao Tu agrees to persuade Leader Shen to abdicate, this item will be handed to you,” Wang Changqing said, then quickly slipped away while Miao Renfeng was still bewildered.

The dragonfly fighter jets surged out from the Fire God Star, and robotic knights emerged as well. Their numbers were dwindling, yet they roared on and kept charging forward.

Xu Gui was different; he knew this was the system forcibly implanting learning skills, but... well, it was a painful topic best left unspoken.

Zhang Juzheng hadn’t expected the Han Emperor to think of him this way. He collapsed in despair, letting out a howl. Spotting a servant’s sword by the door, he swiftly drew it and drove it deep into his own arm. Blood poured out immediately.

“This place does not belong to you… go back… go back… nothing can be reversed…” The voice incessantly urged Roy, slowly devouring his willpower.

This was Xu Gui’s heartbreak. He had been loyal and dedicated to supporting the Han, only to be treated like this. He sighed deeply once again.

“Everyone, I am Shen Ning, skilled in magical weapon combat techniques. I hope you will all assist me greatly in this demon-extermination journey,” Shen Ning spoke first, revealing his specialty so that they would have a basic understanding of him and avoid working at cross-purposes once inside.

Gan Yujing noticed his slight hesitation and thought he was unaware of the matter. She immediately explained, “It’s not only disciples from the major sects who venture into the Ancient Wilderness Realm for trials; there are also many wanderers.”

Tang Wanqing clenched the food box tightly. She and Xiao Ji had not yet consummated their marriage, but Xiao Ji had already been with someone else.

However, having the powerful White Tiger and Vermilion Bird on their side had boosted their confidence considerably.

Ji Bocháng was startled when she suddenly pulled him into an embrace. After hearing her comforting words, his expression became somewhat peculiar.

“Speak. What brings you back?” Shaoyao asked irritably. She knew Shen Ning’s current position was very special, likely involved in covert operations. He wouldn’t appear casually unless absolutely necessary. Returning to the Celestial Master Mansion now surely meant something had happened.

Having been a father for over two months, Xiao Ji understood Nuonuo to some extent. When she cried at night, it was usually because she was hungry.

Wang Erniu lashed out at Second Brother with punches and kicks, but he merely lowered his head and pulled Second Sister-in-Law into his arms, restraining her hands and feet without saying another word.

The office door was pushed open. Ye Mianmian shuddered as she looked up from the screen. Seeing Gu Gui’s face dark and gloomy, she couldn’t help but wonder if someone had angered him during the meeting.
