Mr. Lu Shuai internally relaxed a bit, but quickly snapped back to attention.
"The Citizen Daily is from this morning, which ans she was still in Dragon Capital yesterday." Mr. Lu Shuai was incredulous.
"Can’t hide anything from you, she set off early this morning from Longtou Harbor, and now the ship has already departed..."
Before the words were finished, Mr. Lu Shuai was already sprinting towards Longtou Harbor port. ng Po looked at Mr. Lu Shuai’s frantic figure and sighed gently.
Mr. Lu Shuai felt as though he couldn’t see anything, couldn’t hear anything, he just ran all the way. What if, what if Miss Tang hadn’t left yet, sotis the ships would delay their departure, maybe he could still catch up.
By the ti Mr. Lu Shuai arrived, the port was already bustling. He questioned each of the big ships one by one. Everyone was very enthusiastic to respond upon seeing Mr. Lu Shuai, but the ocean-bound ships had all departed early in the morning, leaving only those arriving or those with no travel scheduled today.
After struggling for a few hours, Mr. Lu Shuai walked aimlessly, the gazes he used to care about now seed to leave him indifferent. He didn’t know how long he had walked before sitting alone by the seaside.
Just staring at the fog-covered sea, endlessly...
anwhile, on the ocean, a cargo ship was heading towards the Black teor Empire.
By the ship’s side stood a hunched old woman in a black robe, wearing a veil. The old woman quietly gazed at the deep blue sea and azure sky, her gaze gentle and kind. She always wanted to see what the outside was like, it was indeed different from the perpetually fog-shrouded Dragon Capital.
From the mont of her birth, life had always been cruel to her, but now she let go, she could forever carry this beautiful mory.
Goodbye, Mr. Lu.
Today’s sunlight is so wonderful.
Tang Chendan took one last look at Dragon Capital disappearing on the horizon.
Plop...
Cold splashes of water rose...
Dragon Capital’s night was particularly cold.
In a Night Patrol’s safe house sowhere in the East District.
Jiang Wu and a middle-aged man wearing a Night Patrol’s Fla Dragon uniform bowed respectfully, Fla Spine, currently the most veteran and strongest Night Patrol captain.
"Is everything ready?"
"Yes, sir." Fla Spine and Jiang Wu nodded respectfully.
The rescued were not only the child Tang Gao, but countless Night Patrol hearts. Initially, they tried every possible ans, seeking help everywhere, but no one cared. It seed the death of a child like Tang Gao didn’t matter, his parents died and so what, the aloof lords rely saw them as disposable tools, let alone an useless child.
Only this gentleman treated them as humans and even devised a way to break the inevitable death-bound situation of Tang Gao.
The difficulty of healing Tang Gao was not just about the materials, or the Great Alchemist, there was also the treatnt cost. But the hardest part was the Wish Power!
Forming the Wish Power needed for healing Tang Gao, power enough for a Great Alchemist to act.
At the level of a Great Alchemist, how could one care about external items, healing a soul-deficient, cursed life ant offending the Nether God, also consuming one’s own cultivation, what to exchange for the karmic force borne?
Whether understood or not, all kept a respectful distance, only this gentleman reached out with aid, planned all this, the Night Patrol had nothing left, only the determination to serve till death.
"Sir, in the na of the Moon God, henceforth, the Night Patrol will follow you." The middle-aged man perford a folded finger salute, saying on one knee.
"You thanked the wrong person, I am rely an executor, the true planner is soone else, he..."
Jiang Wu and Fla Spine were dumbfounded.
"Knowing this is enough, no need to investigate deeply, how is Tang Yinxiao?"
"She has exhausted the seductive woman’s power, the backlash is severe, life at its end, yet it is a relief, the feedback power given to Mr. Lu Shuai is her wish, we the Night Patrol never fear death." Jiang Wu said to express his determination.
"All mortals must face death."

Under the grand celestial do of stars, mbers of the Round Table Conference arrived one after another. As each figure appeared on the high-backed chairs, there was an unspoken sense of expectation and security among them.
"Good evening, dear friends."
Round Table Conference began with Miss Aries’ lodious voice.
"Good evening, Miss Aries."
The Round Table Conference mbers arrived mostly, the Virgo seat still empty, at first, such an occurrence definitely affected others, but now the Round Table Conference had reached an understanding.
Mr. Cancer could see clearly, "Mr. Taurus, you have advanced to Four Lives."
"By luck." Cantona replied.
As always calm, without much joy, instead seed a bit heavier.
"Congratulations, Mr. Taurus!"
"Mr. Taurus is getting closer to becoming an angel."
"Did Mr. Taurus sense the divinity Mr. Cancer ntioned?" Li Xin asked what everyone was most concerned about.
Surpassing Three Lives, followed by Divine Three Lives, according to Mr. Cancer, the Fourth Life is crucial, it almost directly determines if one can beco an angel.
"I am not sure whether I sensed divinity, but signs of an angel have appeared." Cantona said.
For a mont, the entire Round Table Conference could hear breathing, this ant Mr. Taurus had already beco a Preparatory Angel.
"Mr. Taurus might be the first angel of the Round Table Conference." Simmons said enviously.
Coming from a storied family, Simmons could say his lifelong goal from birth had been to beco an angel, let alone becoming an angel, even being a Preparatory Angel would cause a series of reactions.
Such an identity would make his grand sailing plan much smoother, no longer as troubled as now, the intricate web of interests and connections made the newly reinstated George Family’s duchy a bit difficult.
"He won’t be the first; we already have an angel here." Christian said plainly.
Mr. Cancer, still as aloof as ever, was not much concerned with the status of a Preparatory Angel in his tone.
Silence fell over the entire Round Table Conference, everyone looked towards Mr. Cancer, especially Cantona, could it be...
Christian pointed to the empty high-backed chair of Virgo, "There’s a little angel here, but her absence is understandable."
Cantona looked at Mr. Cancer, Christian felt the gaze, "Mr. Taurus, I wager she helped you, and instructed you not to tell us."
Cantona smiled wryly, "Mr. Cancer has seen her?"
"You truly are cautious. This Miss Virgo bears a curse, her fate is full of hardships, yet I have not seen her, just whatever I wish to know, I will surely know." Christian said calmly, "Of course, I do not intend to pry into privacy, just fearing she might threaten our Round Table Conference; if she seeks you again, you may accept her help, we share the sa goals."
All present were aware Mr. Cancer possesses a wealth of arcane knowledge, never imagined he had such ans, is this what a Three Lives should have?
Li Xin also pondered over it, the information was considerable, Virgo is an angel and also a woman, her absence is for a reason, cursed? Beset by fate?
