any of them. This was a prime opportunity for us to strike.The saintess didn't speak, but the short, stout man spoke up and asked, "Is the route confirmed"This man answered, "Yes, this is the way.""He...Chapter 1066: Stay Calm

Torrential rain poured down, with hailstones whipped by the gale, battering everything in their path.

The roof, eaves, and ground were splashed with a fine mist of water vapor, like a haze, from the beating rain.

The whole world was drenched.

The sound that reached my ears was the heavy drumming of rain, mingled with the gurgling of water overflowing from nearby drains.

Perhaps it was the heavy rain, or perhaps the rebellion, but an eerie silence had fallen over the entire capital city.

Even in the dead of night, the streets and alleys of Beijing are always bustling with people.

...or the sounds of movement, or voices from the next courtyard over. ...

There will never be a night like tonight, when it seems as if everyone has vanished.

The only thing you could see on the street were soldiers rushing by.

These soldiers, too, were on high alert, each one as if facing a grave threat. Some even bore wounds upon their bodies.

The sky in the capital city changed, and no one dared to take it lightly.

On this day, who knows how many people died. The explosions during the day were like muffled thunder, scaring the common people to shut their doors and dare not step out of their homes.

Even if a child is crying at home, the adults will immediately cover their mouth at the beginning to avoid causing trouble.

In the rain and darkness, a small group of people spread out, guarding the two in the middle as they approached the Temple of Tai.

Although this small group of people were spread out, they subtly centered around the two in the middle. Each one possessed a powerful aura and their eyes gleamed with intensity, clearly indicating they were top-tier fighters.

Stopping outside the Temple of the Supreme Ancestor, gazing at the deserted courtyard, but still bearing traces of the aftermath of war, Long Huaiyu, shielding himself with a single umbrella, said to Duan Jinjiang beside him, whose figure was hunched but whose cloudy eyes burned with hatred: "Master, I think by now, Li Chen should be dealt with."

"Will Li Yinhu and Zhao Xuanji directly kill Li Chen"

"No."

Duan Jinchang's answer was firm and resolute.

“For them, this is just a power struggle with Li Chen. If Li Chen falls, the East Palace will fall, and they’ll achieve their goals. But we have already made our stance clear: Li Chen must be dealt with by his own hands. They won’t offend us over such trivial matters.”

With a face contorted in grim satisfaction, Duan Jinjiang laughed nearly to madness. “Today, I’ve finally waited for this day! My dear Changmian, have you been waiting for me in the underworld for a long time as well Just wait for your father a moment longer, and I will soon send your enemies down to join you!”

Long Huaiyu looked at Duan Jinjiang, who was beside him, acting like a madman, and felt that his heart was not afraid, but equally agitated.

He had the same experiences as Duan Jinjiang, and even worse than him.

Li Chen killed only one son of Duan Jinjiang.

himself was killed, but the whole clan!

Thinking of his entire family being murdered, Long Huaiyu's inner resentment and hatred almost boiled over.

"Master, let's go find Li Yinhu right now. I can't wait any longer. I can't wait to appear in front of Li Chen and torture him to death, little by little!"

Long Huaiyu's face was contorted in anger, his voice dripping with impatience.

At that very moment, the sound of many footsteps came crashing toward them.

Over a hundred people were moving quickly toward here, as evidenced by the sounds.

A small team of masters protecting Long Huaiyu and Duan Jinjiang immediately became tense.

But Long Huaiyu waved his hand, signaling them not to be too nervous. He said confidently: “It must be Li Yinhu who knows we’re here, so he came to greet us specially. You don't need to panic.”d."Just as Li Yinhu and Duan Jinjiang were in an uproar over the sudden news, Duan Jinjiang had already sent the news to the East Palace through the fastest channels.When Li Chen received the message,...
