484 THE REINFORCEMEN (1/2)
Elder Zhong wasn't suspicious when the two brothers became talkative at a time like this and asked him questions out of the blue. Like how he had known them from they were little, Xiao Tianyao and Xiao Jun had known him for the same amount of time as well.
Elder Zhong was the chatter one among the four elders. They used it for their advantage.
As for the elder, no matter what he divulged, Xiao Tianyao and Xiao Jun would be dead in the end. So, it was a compromise from him.
Also, he didn't mind to have a little chit- chat with them. There was a time when he thought about Xiao Jun and Xiao Tianyao as his own, it was a pity that it was him who took their live.
”They are near…” Senja whispered again, only enough to be heard by the two of them. ”They are almost here…”
”So, it is only you Elder Zhong? Or the two elder also betray me?” Xiao Jun once again glanced at Senja. Her expression was one who was waiting of something.
”You still don't know that I had killed them…” The elder shook his head regretfully while Xiao Jun's expression became hardened. ”I poisoned them.”
”They are here…” Senja said again, this time a little bit louder.
Like on cue, one of the soldiers rushed inside the palace hall and made a bee line toward the elder. Once he was in front of him, he was kneeling and bowed his head as he conveyed his report.
”There are many people barged into the city and kill our people, now they are already in the palace yard, your majesty please be ready for evacuation.”
Upon hearing this report, Xiao Tianyao and Xiao Jun glanced at Senja with questioning look.
”How do you know?” It was Xiao Tianyao who voiced out what Xiao Jun wanted to ask as well.
Naturally, Senja felt the emotion around her when he caught another faint vigorous emotion, they were far, but they were moving toward them.
”I feel them.” Senja said in the matter of fact tone.
”Who are they?”
Like answering Xiao Tianyao's question, suddenly a commotion broke at the outside of the palace hall as the clashing sword and shouting soldiers could be heard.
”Our reinforcement. Yun.” Senja grinned at him.
Xiao Tianyao knew, he always could trust her. ”I think this time you save us…” He said nonchalantly before he reciprocated her grin.
”Don't worry, I always got your back.” Senja said smugly.
”What a snob…”
In spite of their bantered sounded pleasant, but Senja knew Xiao Tianyao was barely standing because of the blood loss that he suffered. His face as white as a sheet.
Xiao Tianyao and Xiao Jun had been through a battle for these past months and that was intensified when they lockdown the Capital City, their energy must have drained a lot the moment both of them fighting Modama, the elder and Xiao Zi.
