Chapter Fifty-Five: A Man Cannot Admit Defeat

The doctors also thought it was absurd, but the test results were undeniable.
"But..."
Yan Xuan quickly grabbed Han Xin, who was about to continue questioning, and said, "It's just a slight fracture, after all. There's not much difference between a fracture and a fissure."
If Han Xin kept pressing, the doctors would start getting suspicious and might even treat him like a lab rat for further experiments!
...
With a crisp sound, Night Rain leapt lightly, deftly swung her sword sheath, and knocked the teacup lid to the ground, shattering it instantly.
Ye Tian saw the looks in their eyes and broke into a cold sweat on his forehead, but he still managed to say, "Heh, well, how about we sleep first? I'm exhausted." With that, he jumped onto the bed, pulled the quilt over himself, and was soon fast asleep.
She had thought they would come out the next day for sure, but unexpectedly, she sat there from morning until the sun tilted westward, and neither door on either side opened even once.
Murong Qingran furrowed her brows slightly, looked coldly at the six men in black, and said, "Did you not understand my words?"
He stood to the side, having already reminded the company quite seriously. If it weren't for these matters, given recent events, there was no way he would have waited. Now, under these circumstances, even if things continued like this, he had to go take a look, lest there be more trouble later on.
The formation set by Di He had somehow been destroyed, and all the things that had been imprisoned here just a short while ago had disappeared without a trace.
The gate guards saw someone in the uniform of the Death Pursuit Division galloping toward them from afar. Recognizing the official attire as he drew closer, they dared not stop him and let him pass without question.
Seeing her like this, Di He regretted his earlier tone even more. He reached out, wanting to hold Nan He, but just as his hand was about to touch her shoulder, he couldn't bring himself to do it.
"Fine, Lu Yan, I'll walk my own path and you walk yours. My business is none of your concern. Even if I die, you wouldn't shed a tear for me!" With anger, Shen Yun Yun wiped her eyes and turned to leave, only to be stopped by a hand grabbing her.
Kai's Azure Dragon Will and Bai Li Shou Yue's Vermilion Bird Will would both be available for sale on New Year's Eve, February 4.
After all, the wars within the borders of Tianzhu and Dashe had long since ended. Yet, the prisoners were sent back to the capital in two batches for the emperor's judgment—what sense did that make?
Xu Bai swore to the heavens that he thought Ye Mujun would, at most, stiffen her neck and coldly call him "husband," and that would be the end of it.
Lan Yi understood well enough. This person, who was never particularly greedy to begin with, would be even more cautious after this experience—a promising sign. After all, a towering tree grows from a good seedling.
With another cold snort, he vanished before I could ask again, leaving me alone with my unanswered questions and bewilderment.
It was foreseeable that the two of them would remain nothing more than loafers for a long time. Blackstone Fortress had no undead troops for them to recruit, and in this underground world, there weren't many high-level undead to be found.
Rumor had it that even Xu Ziqiong of the Southern Wilderness Immortal Physique, who was still in seclusion, had been startled by the news and was planning to come to Cangyun to attend Ning Yun's grand wedding.
Fu Nuo secretly observed the emperor and noticed that, though his face was ruddy, his lips were somewhat dark—he seemed to be relying on some tonic to maintain his energy.
It was a pity my One Yang Finger technique was not yet mastered; the shell landed far from Mr. Pi, striking the ground and sparing his life.
"So you're still alive..." Nalan Mo Sheng tried to hide the astonishment in his eyes, but it was not entirely successful.
