Chapter 66 Sacrifice

Faced with such a heroic and tragic scene, everyone fell silent.

A silent sorrow spread among the crowd.

Sarah Kerrigan said with a hoarse voice, "The battle against the Broodmother was truly fierce. They could not escape; the explosion devoured their bodies, and they will never return. Do not feel sorrow; this was their own choice."

Mengsk said, "Play their wartime footage."

His voice was deep and filled with majesty.

Inside the Yuexiu Palace, Consort Xu, the biological mother of the Second Prince Qin Xinglan, had disheveled hair and a haggard appearance, yet her eyes were filled with hatred as a raging fire burned within. Behind her, the bed's curtains hung low; Qin Xinglan lay flat with his eyes closed, his lips darkened to a pitch-black hue, and his complexion the color of beaten gold.

Hearing Wang Junkuo's words, Wu Anfu nodded repeatedly, thinking to himself that he should cultivate good relationships with Qin Qiong and Shan Xiongxin. Dou Jiande and Xue Ju both seemed to be ambitious overlords of troubled times and would likely become rivals for supremacy in the future. He wondered if it would be possible to turn enemies into friends; with the help of these men, seizing the realm would become much easier.

Almost in the blink of an eye, Xiao Caifu was overtaken by another wave of even more intense desire, completely losing her reason.

When parting ways with Gong Yi, the evening had already fallen, and the western sky was stained a brilliant, extremely vivid crimson by the setting sun. Seeing that the young master had no further instructions, Yuzi returned to the back mountain, chopped down a dozen bamboo stalks, and made over thirty bamboo tubes.

Indeed, Su Bei frowned, but his expression returned to normal after just a brief moment. He tried to pull away the figure that was hugging him tightly, but she held on with such force that Su Bei found it hard to breathe.

The briar thicket was dense and spread continuously. Her delicate body fell into it and remained motionless, having presumably fainted away.

In the pitch-black darkness where one could not see a hand in front of their face, Yuzi widened her eyes, listening unblinkingly to the shouts, screams, and neighs of horses outside.

She looked up in surprise, meeting Zhou Yuchen’s deep eyes, within which a violent storm was currently brewing.

Wu Anfu had remained silent the whole time, listening to their conversation. He formed a mental assessment of this Li Jing, who seemed to be a man of unrecognized talent—this was precisely a wonderful opportunity to win him over and recruit him.

Compared to an intelligence-peddling organization like the Scorpion Gate, the difference was as vast as heaven and earth. Although the Scorpion Gate had mediocre combat strength, its strength lay in its extensive network of connections. Moreover, since the intelligence they sold was in universal demand, taking on assassination missions was only an occasional sideline, which did not conflict with most assassin organizations.

"She is a princess after all. You must not be discourteous when you meet her, or the consequences will be unimaginable!" Duan Fei warned.

Naturally, he dared not voice these thoughts in front of everyone, for he was still working under Qi Tianshou's father, Marquis Qi. If he were to publicly swear to make Qi Tianshou pay the price, all it would take was for someone to report him to Qi Sheng for him to lose a layer of skin even if he managed to escape death.

"Master Lian, I am right here. Come and kill me!" Teng Sihai taunted with a smile from three Zhangs to the left of Lian Yuncheng.

Of course, the French ultimately abandoned the effort to take these two heavy pieces of artillery away during their rout. Much like the British did at Dunkirk, they discarded vital weapons and equipment everywhere in order to increase their retreating speed.

Hearing this, Sun Yue felt her heart leap into her throat, as if she could hardly believe that someone would dare to plant a bomb inside a police station.

The top of the stone was adorned with numerous gemstones, emitting a soft radiance that resembled a bright sky.

After all, Wu Man'er's previous post was that of an incense master in the Four Halls, a position that naturally matched Xiaoyaosheng very well. Therefore, after communicating with Fox Beauty, Jian Xiake swapped the positions of Fox Beauty and Wu Man'er.

When first getting into bed, Zhu Yingtai felt a bit apprehensive and fearful. After all, it was her first time sharing a bed with a man; even though he was her sworn elder brother, it still felt rather strange.
