Outside the window, merchant ships came and went at Lin'an pier. A hint of cunning showed on Cao Kun's face. He asked seemingly casually, "The Dutch Parliament is truly generous. I wonder what price Queen Victoria would be willing to pay in exchange?" Manster maintained a polite smile. He said, "If you can dedicate all the Great Yu Empire's steam locomotive, steamship, firearm, and artillery manufacturing technologies to the society, I can at least guarantee you will also hold the status of an Earl…-

The Prince of Chu's fingers trembled slightly as he held the intelligence report sent back from Qingzhou Province by his spy. The Great Yu Empire army's occupation of Guandong was cause for celebration in Qingzhou Province, but for him, it was nothing short of a nightmare. In the early stages of the Northern Expedition, he had maintained a detached attitude, hoping that Xiao Ming and the barbarians would fight to mutual destruction. This would give him more time to recuperate. But after Pingzhou…

Johnny squatted on the side of the road, smoking. There was a broom next to him, and his eyes held a certain weariness from having seen through life. Ever since his arm was broken by Lance in front of everyone, he had become much more honest at the docks. It wasn't that he didn't want to find a job elsewhere, but there really wasn't a suitable place for him. The number of workers recruited in the industrial area was not as high as the demand in previous years. The work was not very good, the…-

"I have some connection with them," Lance didn't say it in full, but he didn't deny it either. He wasn't yet clear what Councilman Williams meant by this. If he said too much, it would be difficult to refuse later, but he couldn't just say nothing either. Perhaps this was another opportunity. Councilman Williams raised his wine glass, signaling Lance to clink glasses with him. After the two had clinked their glasses, they each took a small sip of wine. The alcohol content of the whiskey was…

The raft moved farther and farther away from the Purple Wind Building. All along the way, Liu Jiande paddled with palpable tension, constantly looking around, fearful of a monster ambush. Su Li remained relatively calm. He saw occasional Corpse Beasts or other monsters surfacing and swimming away, posing no threat. Compared to nighttime, Spiritual Source Beasts were mostly resting during the day. It was rare to see large numbers of them unless something startled them. The one or two monsters that did…

"To reach Level 7 in such a short time since the flood began should qualify one as a true powerhouse." The highest level Su Li had encountered so far was Level 6. Both Gao Shupeng of "Gold Eagle One A-Building" and Jiang Shuijue of the "Golden Convergence Center Building" were Level 6. He had not encountered any Spiritual Source Wielder above Level 6, indicating that the evolutionary levels were still fairly close. Level 6 Wielders likely represented the current pinnacle of strength. However, Su Li…

But besides Qin Haoxuan, who had this fated encounter and happened to meet a Lan Yan who could set up the Illusory Sea of Consciousness, how many other cultivators could experience death even once? Let alone Qin Haoxuan, who had experienced it a full one hundred and fifty times, to the point of becoming slightly mentally deranged. The current Qin Haoxuan was in urgent need of a slaughter to vent the bloodlust in his heart, to vent the fear of death. When Li Jing saw Qin Haoxuan, he was also startled.…

Lan Yan looked at Qin Haoxuan with astonishment, a bright light in her eyes, as she sighed to herself, "What a tenacious Dao Heart, what strong perseverance!" As the caster of the Illusory Sea of Consciousness, she certainly knew how intense the pain was. After trying it once herself, she had sworn never to play with it again unless it was a life-or-death crisis. The pain not only penetrated the bone marrow but also pierced the very soul. Anyone without great perseverance and a strong Dao Heart would…

Xiao Ming closed the memorial sent by Niu Ben, a deep smile on his face. Qian Dafu, standing by, also smiled. "Your Majesty is so pleased. It must be that the remaining three cities have all been conquered." "You guessed correctly. All of Guandong is now under the control of the Great Yu Empire. Now, the Great Yu Empire has gained the land of three additional prefectures, which is truly gratifying," Xiao Ming said. The Northeast three provinces were famously known as a grain-producing region in…

"Clang!" The King of Goryeo's precious sword fell to the ground, making a sound of metal striking the earth. Wiping the blood from his face, the King of Goryeo said expressionlessly to the eunuchs, "Clean up the bedchamber." With that, he and Hwang Ja-man walked towards the council hall in front. News of the barbarians' westward migration arrived, and the suppressed anger in the King of Goryeo's heart finally erupted. The various humiliations Beishan had inflicted upon him flashed through his…
