Chapter 27: Deceiving the Heavens to Cross the Sea

Mu Yi was still wearing the ceremonial robes from the palace, yet his entire being seemed encased in a layer of ice. Seeing Song Qiao here, he showed not the slightest hint of surprise, as if he had been mentally prepared for this all along. He even remarked with a wry smile, "What a lively scene; I have arrived late." Truth be told, the moment Song Qiao saw him, she was frightened out of her wits.

One must remember the outcome when banks previously lent capital to the Chu state navy. The Chu navy continued to expand its forces and prepare for war, but showed no intention of ever repaying the principal. To the Qin state, this was hardly a favorable situation.

At that moment, Ni Siyu appeared at the stadium entrance. Upon seeing me, she asked where Xiang Yu was. It just so happened that Xiang Yu was walking toward the hotel with the other heroes; Zhang Bing had classes today, so she was not accompanying him. Ni Siyu hobbled over excitedly, grabbed Xiang Yu’s arm, and cried, "Big brother!" Xiang Yu offered her a faint smile.

However, a glass structure of this magnitude, entirely composed of bulletproof tempered glass—and with an automated roof designed to let the crops soak up the sun—what an immense amount of effort and wealth must have been poured into this?

Suddenly, he sensed a gust of fierce wind approaching from behind. The ferocity of it caused his expression to shift, and he instantly darted to the left.

Consort Liu was utterly devastated; she had lost every shred of the will to live. With her son—the one who had sustained her—gone, what hope could she possibly have left?

I said, "If he wants to film, let him film. Why must he see me?" My friendship with Old Lady Jin is one thing, but I have no desire to deal with Jin 1 again. He feels awkward seeing me, and I find it just as uncomfortable seeing him.

In the process of formulating the grand strategy, Wei Liao would study the terrain until late into the night almost every day. Consequently, the topographical maps of the six eastern states were practically etched into his mind; he could draw them at will whenever he pleased.

Tian Heng had just received military orders from King Liang, Peng Yue, and was preparing to head to Dang Commandery to requisition grain; he was just about to depart.

Zhao Xi absolutely refused to believe that this young man, barely twenty years of age, could remain unmoved even if Mount Tai were to collapse before him. Even if he were the Crown Prince of Chu, it would be impossible. Therefore, there could only be one explanation for his calm and composed demeanor: he truly had something to rely on, leaving him without fear. In other words, everything he said was true.

I remained skeptical and said, "Let me see what is written first." I’ve learned from the movies—what if the secret letter says, "Kill this person for me"?

Perhaps she had cried out too loudly during their recent moment of passion, for her voice was a bit hoarse. This sharp shriek sounded almost like a broken gong.

"Arrogant! It seems you have no intention of handing over the secret realm passage token just like that. Very well, then let me test your skills!" As the masked man in black finished speaking, a long spear appeared in his hand, and he thrust it straight at Lin Yutang.

"Listen well, all of you. Regardless of the relationship between Tang Ming and our Navy, he is still the Ming King conferred by the government and the highest spiritual leader of the Ming army. No one is to speak recklessly," Sengoku instructed with a stern expression.

If you reside on Barker Road on Victoria Peak, those rarely seen tycoons become your neighbors. In this way, your business dealings and personal interactions with them will have significantly more opportunities than those of others.

Chu Xian held it in his hand and gestured with it, very satisfied. It was sharp—to say it could slice through iron like mud was no exaggeration.

"Yes, Mother Crane and the others want to live the lives of ordinary people. They no longer wish to be embroiled in the storms of the world," Chiyo said candidly, making no attempt to hide the truth.

"You may all leave. Stop looking at gossip news all day and put some heart into your work." With a wave of his hand, he shooed the senior executives of Mo’s Entertainment Group away as if they were mere mosquitoes.

Jiang Liushi made up his mind that he had to take this wild boar, but the base vehicle had limited space. How could he possibly fit a ten-ton behemoth inside?
