256: Chapter 256 The Mu Family's Defection to the Enemy? The White Eagle Empire's Conditions!

Hong Kong, the Mu Family.

Inside the Council Hall, the lights were brightly lit.

Led by the family head, Mu Xiong, all the core elders of the Mu Family were present; no one was absent.

A layer of gloom shrouded everyone's faces, and the atmosphere was incredibly heavy.

Beside the main seat of the Council Hall, a large red sandalwood chair had been specially placed. The Great Elder of the Mu Family, Mu Cangxuan, was currently slumped weakly in the chair.

His face was ashen, his aura withered, and the divine light of a King-rank expert in his eyes had already faded.

This wasn't because he had failed the One-star Artifact Refiner examination; after all, he hadn't been fully confident he could pass in the first place.

Everyone around couldn't help but quiet down; they wanted to see just how many bowls this guy could drink after talking so big.

"What!" Xiao Lu recoiled suddenly, feeling her head spin so much she almost fainted.

The Crimson Feather Guard split into two groups after entering the city; one headed for the City Lord's Mansion, while the other led the majority of the men straight toward the Shen Residence.

"If I'd known Lord-level demonic beasts were this hard to find, I shouldn't have sold the Three-Headed Demon Wolf to Du Xuan yesterday," Ye Yutian said.

During the danger of the spring hunt, Xiao Xuan's horse had been intentionally driven away from the group, while the Imperial Palace Guards and the Brocade Banner Guards by Emperor Chu's side prioritized his safety first. In the chaos, it wasn't until Emperor Chu had been safely rescued and the headcount was taken that everyone realized Xiao Xuan had been carried off by her spooked horse and was nowhere to be found.

"It is the ancient vicious beast, Taotie, but it has another identity..." Ao Tian's gaze fell upon Chen Ping as he spoke with a solemn expression.

Chu Ye nodded slightly. Looking around, they were now walking among the Barbarians. This road was on one side of the main thoroughfare of Sirius City; on one side were the closely packed houses of the Barbarians, and on the other was a wide main road broad enough for four carriages to drive abreast. It was not at all inferior to the great cities of Great Yan.

"Keep your eyes wide open, everyone. Next, you're going to see a suggestive scene that I guarantee you'll never forget for the rest of your lives," Chen Ping shouted, looking around at the Tushan demon cultivators.

Leng Xin, who was still enjoying the last moments of her life, was tossed onto the ground by the man beneath her. She felt a chill on her foot as Li Haoran picked up her sneaker, along with the zombie head still clamped firmly onto it.

For the next four days, the Divine Khan ordered them to hold their position and not engage in battle, regardless of whether the Han Army provoked them with insults or showed signs of retreating. Aguli's heart grew cold along with the orders. Finally, at the suggestion of the Red Eagle King, they decided to visit the Qiyan Tribe under the pretext of celebrating a victory to scout out the situation.

After finishing lunch and resting for about two hours, I finally went to the imperial palace with Yang Linguang.

While swimming in the sea, he felt the aura of the ocean all along the way and discovered that the life force of the oceans on Planet Oth was very dense.

The feeling was particularly strong this time. Yi Xia tried hard to ignore the fantasies in her heart and concentrated as much as possible on the conversation with the prospective spokesperson in front of her.

September 10th is Teachers' Day; this year marks the eleventh Teachers' Day since its reinstatement.

To be honest, if it were any other time and someone used such narcissistic language to describe how amazing they were, my first reaction would be to slap them away and then pin them to the ground for a sound thrashing.

After hearing my words, Chen Daoyu nodded slightly. In fact, he also knew that establishing these laws was absolutely imperative. Hearing that I planned to base them on industry regulations while promising to minimize conflicts between those regulations and the law put him somewhat at ease; after all, this was the best approach for now.

Director Liu calling him Colonel Wang wasn't just a casual address; Wang Chan's official identity was indeed the Deputy Director of the Political Department of a certain Armed Police unit, holding a genuine colonel's rank and deputy division-level benefits. It was just that Wang Chan's usual conduct never made anyone associate him with his military position.

Come to think of it, this is the first time I've ever said such cheesy lines; I've got goosebumps all over, and it's incredibly uncomfortable.
