Chapter 139: The Unwanted House

Father Jiang did not hesitate and immediately began deployment to ensure that his family would not be implicated in this matter. Fortunately, thanks to Gu Tingzhou's warning, the situation had not yet reached the point of no return, and the Jiang family could distance themselves from it in time. However, the friendship between Father Jiang and his close associate had come to an end; yet, in the face of his family's safety and survival, nothing else was worth mentioning. Father Jiang even specifically asked Jiang Fan to invite Gu Tingzhou to their home for a meal, treating him with great warmth during the dinner and telling him not to stand on ceremony, but to treat the house as his own.

The three masters utilized their supreme lightness skills, soaring up the steep mountain peak, where they came face-to-face with several of Tanyun's disciples.

"See? What did I tell you? She's throwing another tantrum," Geng Haoshi said, taking the opportunity to change the subject.

Joy radiated from her face. Tee-hee, now that they were engaged, Jing Lichen had officially put his label on her.

Jing Lichen’s face was cold, his icy gaze piercing Jing Yu like a blade; cold sweat beaded constantly on Jing Yu’s forehead.

"Husband, do you think I'm a monster?" Held in his arms, Jiu'er trembled all over, looking up with teary, pitiful eyes.

Others might not know, but how could Duke Rosseta, the Minister of State of the O'Brien Kingdom, be unaware? After all, every soldier from the kingdom who participated in the expedition to the City in the Sky had been personally selected by him. Aside from the King of O'Brien, Duke Rosseta was one of the few who knew the inside story clearly.

Just as the group had escaped the harassment of the sandstorm, they saw a large troop appearing behind it. As soon as they appeared, the sandstorm vanished, and the sky turned clear again.

The headquarters of the Heavenly Dragon Gang was now located at Laogua Ridge in the Shu region, a place with dense forests that made it easy to hide and difficult to attack. Because the Heavenly Dragon Gang specialized in making and using poisons, they had always been despised by the martial arts community, who referred to them in private as the "Poison Dragon Gang."

Jiang Li watched from the side, unable to bear it. She wondered if the dog could actually understand? She looked at Xu Mosen with a hint of sorrow; this Tong Lechi really wasn't very bright.

One had to know that both the branch family of the Yao clan and the Lang family had experts at the Void Return stage. A Void Return martial artist could absolutely not be contended with by a True Essence martial artist; this was common knowledge.

"Doctor, are they all going to be alright?" Ye Zhong walked into the room where the injured police officers were being treated and asked Doctor Wu, an old man with a gray beard.

Seeing Lu Chen agree, Lin Baihe jumped for joy, grabbed Lu Chen, and rushed toward the training grounds.

Having dealt with two more groups of troublemakers, Kuroko finally found a hard-won moment of leisure, planning to rest for a while and grab some lunch to fill her stomach. However, while passing a certain restaurant, her eyes were unintentionally drawn to a unique figure.

At this time, who else could be calling her besides that "Big Sister"? Frenda compared the leader of her organization with the unknown intruder to see who was more terrifying, but only heard a cold voice from the receiver saying, "Open the door."

This giant tree was truly massive, and it contained a strange force field. With Lu Chen's current spiritual sense, he couldn't penetrate too deeply, but the information he had just obtained from within the tree was enough to make him happy.

"Understood." Yongchun nodded, and after arranging all the matters, she left with the others. Alice, finding that there was nothing left to do, sat in the corridor leaning against a pillar, waiting for the first ray of morning sun from the east.

After hanging up the phone and watching the police force escort the troublemakers into the vehicle, Kuroko nodded in acknowledgment and teleported away.

At this moment, Fu Daye walked over and told Ye Zhong that Wang Yongjiang and Jiang Fangzhen had arrived.

Just as he was less than eighty meters away, the specter's back suddenly twisted around. Its eyes glowed with a faint cyan light, staring straight at the bushes that Yun Qing was using for cover.

Shaking her head, Kuroko couldn't help but glance at her sleeve, confirming that she hadn't forgotten to wear her armband.
