Chapter 47: Am I Not Worthy?
Xu Yu would never have thought to look up the meaning of green roses.
Her phone had gotten wet and wouldn't turn on.
But Xu Yu hadn't forgotten to use her backup phone to message Jing Li, telling her about her cooperation with Shen Yue.
“Don’t worry, next time I meet Aunt Zhong, I’ll definitely hand over these scandalous photos of Wen Han to her.”
Jing Li was brimming with excitement.
Xu Yu replied, “Alright, if you need help, just let me know.”
...
After all, although Zhou Shan was usually carefree, during a fight he would become calm and meticulous, carefully observing his opponent’s moves and refusing to give them any openings.
Lei Si finished speaking and hung up. On the other end, after ending the call, Lei Si let out a long sigh of relief. It seemed that he had finally resolved the knot in his heart with his younger brother, Zhen Si, and could let go. But thinking about the method Zhen Si suggested—was it really the right thing to do?
Suxun hadn’t finished speaking, but he had already sent word to the Office of Military Affairs: swiftly draft an edict to the Governor’s Office in Hunan, instructing Zeng Guofan to assist in organizing the local militia and villagers.
“Haha, Cruel, well done! You made them run so far—now look, they’ve landed themselves in trouble. Don’t always stay so far away from me. Even Cruel can’t stand to watch anymore!” Optimus Prime turned around and shouted at us, his excitement plain for all to see.
Dou responded in a letter: “Say no more. Yulan is the one I’ll rely on for the rest of my life. My mind is made up; you’d best look after yourself.”
The Clockwork Valley had been Ji Changming’s place of heartbreak. Only after avenging himself did he dare to pay respects to his ancestors. Now, suddenly hearing he wanted to restore the Ji family, she was somewhat surprised.
“Damn, finally cleared out this batch of monsters. I’m actually a bit tired now—there were just too many! And I have to say, those graveyard strays and thieves really pack a punch.” After the battle, Optimus Prime flopped onto the ground, exhausted like a worn-out dog.
In the eyes of Suxun and Emperor Xianfeng, as soon as the imperial order arrived, Zeng Guofan would go to Changsha that very day and immediately begin organizing the local militia.
Raichu burst out of the underground tunnel and aimed a punch crackling with electricity at Arcanine, but Arcanine quickly opened its jaws and bit down on Raichu’s fist.
If she hadn’t been able to see that Yu Mingming was perfectly healthy, she might have suspected he’d suddenly had a stroke.
Of course, she had only made a casual move; otherwise, Ji Qinglian would not have been able to withstand it at all.
Though the Desert Emperor, desperate, tried to escape using his E skill, it was a pity Wang Kai had already seen through it and blocked his path with his own body.
She was just like her reputation—like a blood-soaked venomous spider. Any part of her body could shoot out fine threads coated with the venom of all kinds of poisonous snakes and insects from this world. If those threads pierced the skin, the venom would quickly enter the bloodstream.
Qin Qiao dumped the entire matter of their disappearance onto Tuoba Chuxing, who naturally turned to Ling Ze’s group for answers.
Many people called him a fool. Battalion deputy was a position countless people dreamed of, a sure path to a bright future. To turn it down when it was within reach—if that wasn’t foolish, what was? Even the battalion leaders found it unbelievable.
Motoki began racking his brains for ways to strengthen the Japanese army, working tirelessly, applying all his knowledge to improve their tactics, discipline, and logistics against the Qing. Drawing on the experience of the Russo-Japanese War, he tightly integrated grenade launchers, mortars, and the Type 92 infantry gun with the infantry units, rehearsing until their coordination was flawless.
“How dare you ignore me!” Lei Wu slammed his palm on the table with such force that the teacups rattled noisily.
A month passed in the blink of an eye. Now, it was time for Ye Qingcheng and Xia Xun to enter the palace, for Xia Xun to bestow Qingcheng’s official title.
