Chapter 261 (1/2)

The yellow mountain area was not big. Since Chu Yunsheng came to this place, he had never heard of the second black man. So if that person was not Edgar, who else it could be?

Although Chu Yunsheng did not know why the timid guy would end up here, he didn’t have the heart to let him die when he could easily save him. Besides, he still needed Tan Ning’s information from him. Moreover, Edgar was with him for a period of time after Jin Ling city disappeared, he could be considered as a friend that Chu Yunsheng could trust at that time.

“Take me to the place where you burn people!” Chu Yunsheng ordered, then he realized that they just saw his scars, he instantly frowned.

While two young men were still stunned by Chu Yunsheng’s scars, Xiao Zhen already came back from the shock, she quickly pushed one of the young men who was next to her and said, “what are you two still waiting here for, take Grandpa Yuan to see it.”

She then got into the room and brought Chu Yunsheng some clothes and said, “Grandpa Yuan, it’s cold outside.”

Chu Yunsheng put his clothes on and realized that he had another problem. Those three people had just seen his reactions, if the black man was indeed Edgar, and if he saved him, those three people would definitely report this to their castellan.

So before he could figure out how to cover this, he needed to make them stay with him.

“You three follow me, don’t go anywhere!” Chu Yunsheng said with a strong tone.

Two young men did not have any problem with it, but Xiao Zhen seemed to have a little problem, “Grandpa Yuan, but I need to look after the fire messenger, can I not go?” she said.

“No, everyone has to go, the fire messenger has slept already, so don’t worry about that,” Chu Yunsheng said resolutely.

Three people were dazed again, how did this old man know that the fire messenger had slept already?

“I am scared to see the scene of burning people alive…” Xiao Zhen knitted her brows and said.

“You have to go! You will get used to it! Let’s go!” Chu Yunsheng said straight away and then asked them to lead the way.

……

The place where they burned people was not in the center of the castle, it was at the Northern corner of the castle.

At the moment, the place was already ablaze with light and noisy with voices.

Gazing from a distance, it seemed like they had already lit up the fire. Chu Yunsheng was extremely worried, so he instantly speeded up.

“Move out the way, move! Are you all blind! Move out the way for the Chamberlain!” two young men shouted behind the crowd. Following them were Xiao Zhen and Chu Yunsheng.

“What Chamberlain? Since when have we had that?” Although those people didn’t know what role the chamberlain was, they knew those two young men. So no one dared to confront them, everyone whispered secretly and moved out of the way.

Chu Yunsheng had very good eyesight, when he was still far away from the center, he could already see what was in the middle of the crowd by looking over people’s heads.

Three metal pillars stood up in the middle of the crowd and they were surrounded by a circle of fire. There were two males and one female being tied up on the metal pillars, the one that in the middle was Edgar.

“s.h.i.+t! It really is him,” Chu Yunsheng cursed.

…

Edgar was about to lose his hope. He didn’t know why he would end up like this, everything seemed to be going so well when he was with Mr. Lennon, but when he left him, it just went straight downhill.

It was not that he didn’t want to say Mr. Lennon was Chu Yunsheng. It was that even if he told them that, he still would not be able to help them to find Chu Yunsheng, let alone if they were going to believe him.

People would most likely treat his words as the last struggle before his death. So he gave up the idea of telling other people everything he knew about Chu Yunsheng.

“Mr. Lennon, where are you?” He murmured.

“Edgar, you said that someone will come to save us, where are they? We don’t have much time left!” a blonde young man to the right of Edgar complained to Edgar in English.

“He will be back, he definitely will! He said…” Edgar murmured again as if he was reciting some kind of incantations. However, he had already lost his confidence.

“Just give up, may the Lord bless us and save us from this evil land…” the young man began to pray silently.

“I’m sorry, Edgar, It’s all because of me and Bentley, otherwise, you…” a beautiful white girl to Edgar’s left said guiltily.

“No, Dori. It was because I didn’t follow his instructions, I didn’t hold back…” Edgar regretted, but there was nothing he could do to correct his mistake.
